Abstract
171,932. Law, C. Aug. 17, 1920. Steering by submersible towed bodies; towing. -Consists in using submersible towed bodies such as paravanes in pairs for emergency steering of ships, each towed body having either one or two towing-wires. When one wire H,.Fig. 3<B>, is used for each paravane, steering is effected by hauling in one wire on the port or starboard side and paying out the wire of the paravane on the other side. When two wires H, J, Fig. 5, are employed, they are attached to the points F, G, Fig. 2, of the paravane. The port and starboard wires J are of equal length and are attached at fixed points to the ship, whereas the wires H are led inboard to the main steering chains, or to a winding medium, such as a winch, so as to be adjustable relatively for steering. More than one pair of towed bodies mav be employed.
