FR2785232A1 - Sealing assembly for an engine room of a boat that incorporates an integrated caterpillar track drive assembly - Google Patents

Abstract

The sealing device comprises a control console (11) which is perfectly sealed and provides access to the engine room and enables aeration of the room by opening a lockable valve (9). It comprises two caterpillars (4) mounted on the hull, driven by four hydraulic motors (2) enabling the berthing even in bad weather. It transforms the boat into an amphibious vehicle.

Description

the present invention relates to a "sealed machinery-

  to ehenilles whose control console serves as access and

  ventilation and manual opening lockable.

  The boats all fear to hit the bottom, they avoid approaching the coasts, risking being swept by the swell and remaining bogged down; deceived by big temns is X

  moment of inattention or a magnified wave where the wind invades

  - go inside, then hold the machinery and sink the boat

very rarely.

  IO0 The device of the invention makes it possible to dock all the coasts which do not have ras -ocher saillart, this qmi provides a great safety of navigation; especially as the hold is waterproof, the boat is unsinkable, the air necessary for

  combustion of diesel engines is provided during the opening

  T5-manual shutdown of a lockable valve (NOq drawing I / 4)

  The tracks (NM4 drawing 1/4) are driven by four mo-

  -headers with drum brakes (N02 drawing I / 4) with a power of 16 to I9 KW -ha-uh. motors are connected to 4 "double domes" whose clutch (NO3 drawing 1 / a) is e-driven by V-belts to diesel engines (N 0)
