Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an apparatus for assisting stoppage of a ship in which stoppage of an unidentified ship is carried out forcibly by stretching a rope on the ocean by means of an aircraft. SOLUTION: The apparatus for assisting stoppage of a ship comprises a buoyant ship stopping rope 2 contained in a container 1, and a parachute 3 for hauling out the ship stopping rope from the container and arranging it on the water. The parachute is opened by throwing down the container from an aircraft and the ship stopping rope is hauled out from the container. Since the ship stopping rope thus hauled out is stretched on the water when the parachute is falling while decelerating, the ship stopping rope can be intertwined with the screw of an unidentified ship and thereby the ship can be stopped forcibly.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a ship stopping support device, and more particularly to a device for stopping a ship suspected of violating territorial waters or criminal offense by dropping it from an aircraft.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when a suspicious vessel has entered territorial waters, a call to stop the vessel has been made. In some cases, the ship was forced to stop.

[0003]

However, the suspicious ship often ignores the warning and does not stop, and in such a case, the suspicious ship must be missed. Further, when the suspicious ship is traveling at a high speed, the suspicious ship cannot approach even if pursued and cannot perform a forced stopping operation.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in consideration of the above-described problems, and has as its object to provide a stop assisting device for forcibly stopping a suspicious ship by passing a rope over the sea by an aircraft.

[0005]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a ship stopping support device according to the present invention is provided with a stopping rope which is housed in a container and has buoyancy, and which draws the stopping rope from the container and aligns them on the water. It is characterized by having a parachute.

According to the present invention, a parachute is opened by dropping a container from an aircraft, thereby pulling a stopping rope from the container. During the deceleration descent by the parachute, the pulled out rope will be delivered over the water, so by dropping it in front of the suspicious ship, it will be possible to entangle the stopping rope with the screw of the suspicious ship. There is an advantage that the ship can be forcibly stopped.

[0007] Further, since the stopping rope is delivered to the route of the suspicious ship, the course change of the suspicious ship is prevented. Therefore, there is an advantage that the traveling speed of the suspicious ship decreases and the pursuit ship can catch up, so that the stoppage can be forced.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 1 is a diagram schematically showing a storage state of a ship stop assisting device according to the present invention in a container 1. As is clear from this figure, a stop rope 2 of about 400 m easily extends in the container 1. It is stored as possible, and one end of the rope 2 is connected to the container 1. The other end of the rope 2 is the line 31 of the parachute 3.
When the parachute 3 is opened, the container is pulled out of the container 1 by the inertia of the container and the drag of the parachute 3.

A connecting cable 4 is connected to the umbrella of the parachute 3. The connecting cable 4 passes through a hole formed in the lid 11 of the container 1 and is connected to a line (not shown) of the pilot chute 5. are doing. A pilot chute 5 is provided outside the lid 11, and an automatic cable 6 is connected to the umbrella of the pilot chute 5. When the container 1 is dropped from the aircraft and the pilot chute 5 is opened, , It is automatically disconnected from the aircraft.

FIG. 2 is a view showing a state in which the ship stopping support device according to the present invention is extended. As is clear from this drawing, one end of a long ship stopping rope 2 is connected to the container 1, The other end is connected to the line 31 of the parachute 3. The umbrella head 32 of the parachute 3 is connected to the line 51 of the pilot chute 5 via the connecting cable 4 penetrating the lid 11 of the container 1, and the umbrella head of the pilot chute 5 is connected to the automatic cable 6. ing.

In this embodiment, the stopping rope 2 has buoys 21 at predetermined intervals. The buoy 21 makes it easier to find the stop assist device. Therefore, it is possible to clarify the position of the stop assist device for the suspicious ship and the position of the stop assist device for the pursuit ship to prevent malfunction.

A flashlight 22 is attached to the ship stopping rope 2. The flash light 22 also makes it easier for the suspicious ship and the pursuit ship to find the stop assist device, and is particularly effective when executing a forced stop operation at night.

Further, the stopping ropes 2 are provided with reflecting plates 23 at predetermined intervals. By attaching such a reflector 23, it is possible to obstruct the navigation of a suspicious ship due to the reflection of sunlight, and also has an effect of facilitating the discovery of the stop assist device.

When using such a stop assist device,
As shown in FIG. 3, when the automatic rope 6 first drops the container 1 connected to the aircraft A, the automatic rope 6 pulls out the pilot chute 5, and then a force is applied to the automatic rope 6. When it happens, it is automatically disconnected. When the pilot chute 5 catches the wind and has a resistance, the connecting chute 4 is pulled, the lid 11 of the container 1 is detached, and the parachute 3 is moved to the container 1.
You will be more pulled out. Thus, the parachute 3 is pulled out, and the parachute 3 is opened.

On the other hand, the container 1 keeps falling. Since the one end of the rope 2 is connected to the container 1 and the other end is connected to the parachute 3, the rope is pulled out of the container 1 by the drag of the parachute 3. At this time, the container 1 side falls quickly, while the parachute 3 side decelerates and descends. That is, ignoring the wind condition, the stopping rope 2 is pulled in the traveling direction of the flying object A.

[0016] Therefore, by dropping the container 1 across the front of the suspicious ship to be stopped and the like, it is possible to form a blocking line by the stopping rope 2.
In other words, it is possible to put a blocking line with a long stopping rope (the length of the rope can be changed depending on altitude and speed) in front of the suspicious ship in the sea S, and entangle the screw of the suspicious ship to make it impossible to navigate. . Since the speed of the aircraft A is higher than that of the high-speed suspicious ship, there is an advantage that the blocking line can be set ahead of the suspicious ship.

By using a rope having a low specific gravity and a high strength (such as a high-strength polyester rope) as such a stopping rope, the rope itself floats on the sea, and when a suspicious ship passes over it, a rope is attached to the screw. It is possible to entangle.

[0018]

As described above, according to the ship stopping support device of the present invention, the parachute is opened by dropping the container from the aircraft, and the stopping rope is pulled out from the container. During the deceleration descent by the parachute, the pulled out rope will be delivered over the water, so by dropping it in front of the suspicious ship, it will be possible to entangle the stopping rope with the screw of the suspicious ship. There is an advantage that the ship can be forcibly stopped.
