Abstract

The invention relates to the main body of the device, namely a membrane 1 moulded from flexible and elastic material which can fold to allow its passage through a gap and unfold by its characteristic elasticity without an added device. This membrane 1 has overthicknesses 7 arranged in a star shape giving it good elasticity so as to reassume its initial shape after folding. These overthicknesses 7 have an elongate shape which can have or not have parallel edges and end either on the edge of the membrane 1, or recessed from the latter; moreover, they are situated on the outer face of the membrane 1 so as to present a smooth surface on the hull C thus ensuring perfect sealing. Fastening of the membrane 1 on the rod 2 is provided by self-locking nuts or by an insert upon moulding of the membrane 1. The device according to the invention is particularly intended for stopping a leak on a ship.

Description

DESCRIPTION
Pour aveugler une voie d'eau survenant dans la coque d'un navire ou pour obturer une fuite dans un corps contenant un liquide, on procède generalement par une réparation à l'aide de matériaux classiques devant être assemblés et adaptés sur la voie d'eau à obturer.
DESCRIPTION
To blind a waterway occurring in the hull of a ship or to seal a leak in a body containing a liquid, one generally proceeds by a repair using conventional materials having to be assembled and adapted on the way of water to be sealed.

Une telle opération ne peut pas se faire lorsque le navire est sur l'eau ou lorsque le réservoir n'a pas été vidé de son contenu.Such an operation cannot be done when the ship is on the water or when the tank has not been emptied of its contents.

Pour résoudre ce problème, on a proposé la mise en oeuvre d'un dispositif qui permet, à l'aide d'une enveloppe supportée par une armature de style "parapluie", de passer à travers une brêche ou d'une voie d'eau à étancher et de commander son ouverture à partir d'un dispositif manuel.To solve this problem, the implementation of a device has been proposed which allows, using an envelope supported by an "umbrella" style frame, to pass through a breach or a track. water to be sealed and to control its opening from a manual device.

La complexité et la relative fragilité ne permet pas d'obtenir une bonne fiabilité dans l'utilisation d'un tel dispositif et rendent sa realisation difficile.The complexity and the relative fragility does not make it possible to obtain good reliability in the use of such a device and make its realization difficult.

La présente invention vise à résoudre le problème ci-dessus en créant un procédé, ainsi qu'un dispositif pour sa mise en oeuvre permettant d'assurer un étanchement efficace d'une voie d'eau pour un prix de revient trés faible ainsi qu'une bonne fiabilité d'utilisation.The present invention aims to solve the above problem by creating a method, as well as a device for its implementation, making it possible to ensure effective sealing of a waterway for a very low cost price as well as good reliability of use.

Selon le procéde de l'invention, on introduit une membrane, maintenue pliée par la main, à travers une brêche ou une voie d'eau à étancher. L'ouverture de cette membrane-étant assurée par sa nervosité et son elasticité propre.According to the method of the invention, a membrane, kept folded by hand, is introduced through a breach or a waterway to be sealed. The opening of this membrane-being ensured by its nervousness and its own elasticity.

Selon une caractéristique de llinvention, l'appareil pour la mise en oeuvre du procédé comprend une membrane (1) en matière souple et élastique presentant des surépaisseurs (7) disposées en etoile lui assurant une élasticité suffisante pour reprendre sa forme initiale après un pliage. Ces surepaisseurs (7) ont une forme allongée pouvant avoir.ou non des bords parallèles et se terminer soit sur le bord de la membrane (1) soit en retrait de celui-ci, de plus, elles sont situées sur la face extérieure de la membrane (1) pour présenter une surface lisse sur la coque (C) assurant ainsi une parfaite étanchéité. According to a characteristic of the invention, the apparatus for implementing the method comprises a membrane (1) made of flexible and elastic material having extra thicknesses (7) arranged in a star shape providing it with sufficient elasticity to resume its initial shape after folding. These extra thicknesses (7) have an elongated shape which may or may not have parallel edges and terminate either on the edge of the membrane (1) or set back therefrom, moreover, they are located on the outer face of the membrane (1) to present a smooth surface on the shell (C) thus ensuring a perfect seal.

Le bord de la membrane (1) présente une légère incurvation de manière à être parallèle au pourtour de la brêche à obturer au moment de la mise en place du dispositif.The edge of the membrane (1) has a slight curvature so as to be parallel to the periphery of the gap to be closed when the device is put in place.

La fixation entre la membrane (1) et la tige (2) est assurée soit par deux écrous auto-bloquants (6) soit par insert au moulage de la membrane (1).The fixing between the membrane (1) and the rod (2) is ensured either by two self-locking nuts (6) or by insert for molding the membrane (1).

Diverses autres caractéristiques de l'invention ressortiront de la description détaillée ci-dessous faite en référence aux dessins annexés qui montrent un exemple non limitatif de réalisation de l'appareil.Various other characteristics of the invention will emerge from the detailed description below made with reference to the appended drawings which show a non-limiting example of embodiment of the device.

La figure 1 est une élévation de l'appareil pour la mise en oeuvre du procédé.Figure 1 is an elevation of the apparatus for implementing the method.

Les figures 2 et 3 sont des coupes élévations illustrant deux phases particulières de mise en oeuvre de l'appareil.Figures 2 and 3 are sectional elevations illustrating two particular phases of implementation of the device.

Selon la figure 1, l'appareil comprend une membrane (1) maintenue sur une tige (2).According to Figure 1, the apparatus comprises a membrane (1) held on a rod (2).

Un dispositif de blocage de l'appareil comprenant une contre-plaque
(3), une vis de serrage (4) et une boule (5) de maintien.
A device locking device comprising a counter plate
(3), a clamping screw (4) and a retaining ball (5).

Selon la figure 2, la membrane (1) est dans la première phase de mise en place de l'appareil et n'a donc subit aucune déformation aprés son passage à travers la brêche. According to Figure 2, the membrane (1) is in the first phase of setting up the device and therefore has not undergone any deformation after its passage through the breach.

Selon la figure 3, apres avoir effectué une légère traction sur la tige (2) et bloqué l'appareil à l'aide de la contre-plaque (3) et de la vis de serrage (4), la membrane (1) vient se plaquer sur le pourtour de la brêche. On note alors une légère déformation du bord de la membrane sur la coque (C) pour assurer une bonne étanchéité. According to Figure 3, after having made a slight pull on the rod (2) and blocked the device with the counterplate (3) and the clamping screw (4), the membrane (1) comes tackle around the edge of the breach. There is then a slight deformation of the edge of the membrane on the shell (C) to ensure a good seal.

La membrane (1) est maintenue sur la tige (2) à l'aide des deux écrous de blocage (6) et des joints (8) assurant l'étanchéité.The membrane (1) is held on the rod (2) using two locking nuts (6) and seals (8) ensuring the seal.

Le corps principal de l'appareil à savoir la membrane (1) est réalise en une seule opération de moulage par injection d'une matière souple et élastique.The main body of the device, namely the membrane (1), is produced in a single injection molding operation of a flexible and elastic material.

L'objet de l'invention peut être réalisé de ce fait à un prix de revient trés intéressant.The object of the invention can therefore be achieved at a very attractive cost price.

Par ailleurs, différentes dimensions de membranes peuvent être
envisagées pour s'adapter à des breches ou des voies d'eau de dif
férentes grandeurs.
