Abstract

962,343. Stabilizing ships. JOHN J. McMULLEN ASSOCIATES Inc. Nov. 18, 1960 [Feb. 16, 1960], No. 39766/60. Heading B7M. The rolling motion of a marine vessel is dampened by the provision of liquid storage tanks 12 located on each side of a transverse plane of the vessel connected by a duet or flume 13. A restriction 14, e.g. a nozzle, is provided at each end of the flume where it connects with the tank 12 to damp the flow from one tank 12 to the other as the ship rolls and thus provide a righting moment to aid in restoring the ship to the vertical position. Another embodiment describes a transversely located tank divided into wing and central compartments by vertical or angled arrays of parallel pipes 26 fixed to the top and bottom surfaces of the tank, each of which may have fins 27 welded to it in the plane of the array. The pipes, with attached fins when fitted, act as restrictions to the transfer of liquid from one side compartment to the other as the vessel rolls.
