Submarine for sub-aquamarine tourism using catamaran hull}

The present invention relates to a floating tourist submersible using catamarin-type hull, more specifically, it can operate even in low water level because of excellent injury control ability, the entire cabin is transparent, regardless of the place wide view ( It is possible not only to view the sea, but also to detach the cabin, which makes maintenance easy, which can reduce maintenance costs.In particular, it prevents the attachment of aquatic creatures such as barnacles without mobilizing divers. The present invention relates to a floating tourist submersible using a catamaran type hull which has significantly increased its utilization value.

In general, hulls manufactured for the purpose of sightseeing underwater can be divided into tourist submarines and tourist submersibles.

At this time, the tourist submarine is a ship that allows you to tour the seabed while the whole hull submerged underwater while carrying tourists, for example, it can be seen in tourist spots such as Jeju Island.

However, such a method is to maintain a pressure-resistant, since the inconvenience of having to transfer to a tourist submarine on a barge after moving to a barge on a shuttle boat carrying tourists on land, and to dive underwater for a long time For safety reasons, such as durability, tourists can see the view (view), that is, the viewing window is limited to be small, the efficiency is very low.

On the other hand, the tourist submersible is named for Glass Bottom Boat, Semi Submarine Boat, Semi Submersible Boat, etc., depending on the region, and is used for underwater marine tourism in various parts of the world where marine tourism is activated. Getting drunk.

In other words, tourist submersibles do not submerge underwater to the hull, unlike submarines, but the hull is injured in the water while the underwater viewing room, ie the cabin, is fixed to the lower part of the hull, so that only the underwater viewing room is submerged. By doing so, the passengers who boarded it could see the sea floor.

Representative companies operating such tourist submersibles include English Engineering, founded in Cairns, Queensland, Australia, Jordan Boats in Jordan, and Semi-Submersible Glass Bottom Boats, a multinational company operating in South Africa, New Zealand and Australia. Etc. can be mentioned.

However, the currently operated tourist submersible cabins are completely locked to the hull because the cabin, which is an underwater viewing room, is always locked to a certain depth in the water, so the operating speed of the hull is slow, which makes it impossible to dock the coast. There is a drawback to carrying a barge on a land.

In this process, the crane needs to be lifted up, so it is not only a waste of time and time, but also a possibility of damage.

In addition, since the cabin is always locked, the water stays in the sea for a long time, causing underwater creatures such as scales and barnacles to stick to and grow, resulting in poor appearance and obstructing the view of the viewers by covering the windows, thereby preventing problems. In order to do this, there is an inconvenience to clean periodically.

In this case, the cleaning work must be carried out by lifting the hull completely with a barge or by using a professional diver to clean the cost of maintenance.

In addition, since the cabin is integrally constructed, the deep water cannot be operated, and if a mistake is made, it is not only easy to be stranded on the reef but also has a high risk of damaging the cabin by hitting a tree floating in the sea.

Accordingly, the present applicant has been patented by developing a tourism semi-submersible as described in the following prior art document, but it is difficult to provide a large number of boarding environment due to the limited number of occupants in the cabin, so that the operating profit is lowered. Necessity is demanded.

In addition, although the modular tourist submersible has been disclosed as in the prior art document, it is understood that the submarine has its own engine rather than the submersible as in the present invention, and thus contains the problem of the submarine as it is.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described in detail a preferred embodiment according to the present invention.

Prior to the description of the present invention, the following specific structures or functional descriptions are merely illustrated for the purpose of describing embodiments according to the inventive concept, and the embodiments according to the inventive concept may be implemented in various forms, It should not be construed as limited to the embodiments described herein.

In addition, embodiments in accordance with the concepts of the present invention may be modified in various ways and may have various forms, specific embodiments will be illustrated in the drawings and described in detail herein. However, this is not intended to limit the embodiments in accordance with the concept of the present invention to a particular disclosed form, it should be understood to include all modifications, equivalents, and substitutes included in the spirit and scope of the present invention.

As shown in Figures 2 and 3, a floating tourist submersible using the catamaran-type hull according to the present invention includes a catamaran-type (twin type) hull (100).

The catamaran hull 100 is a catamaran hull in which a space exists between the left hull 100a and the priority body 100b. The catamarin type hull 100 has a wide line width and a low resistance, and particularly has excellent stability against swinging. It is suitable for tourist submersibles according to the invention.

In addition, the hull ballast tank 110 is provided below the left hull 100a and the first hull 100b to adjust the degree of injury of the hull 100 by inserting and removing the ballast water.

In addition, a substantially cylindrical cabin 200 is installed in the space between the left hull 100a and the priority body 100b so as to protrude downwardly from the hull 100, and a visitor rides inside the cabin 200. Configured to do so.

In particular, since the cabin 200 has a length corresponding to the length of the hull 100, there is an advantage that can accommodate a plurality of visitors at the same time.

In addition, a pair of cabin ballast tanks 210 are installed on both lower sides of the outer side of the cabin 200.

Therefore, the hull 100 may be floated to the surface of the water by filling or subtracting ballast water into the cabin ballast tank 210.

This is one of the very important concept in the present invention, so that the cabin 200 can be floated on the water surface, so when the circumferential surface of both sides of the cabin 200 is exposed to the air when not used to prevent aquatic organisms such as barnacles stick well It can be kept as possible.

In addition, even when cleaning is required, there is a need not to raise a barge by using a marine crane as in the past, and there is an advantage that the exterior of the cabin 200 can be washed without mobilizing divers.

The reason why this is possible is that when the ballast water of the cabin ballast tank 210 is removed from all the ballast water of the hull ballast tank 110 provided in the hull 100, the cabin 200 floats up to the surface of the air This is because it can be cleaned very easily and conveniently around the cabin 200 in the water because it is exposed to the middle.

In addition, a part of the cabin 120 and the cabin 200 provided in the hull 100 for boarding in the cabin 200 communicate with each other, and a ladder 130 is installed so that visitors may ride in the cabin 130. ) You can board inside.

At this time, the most characteristic part of the present invention is in the coupling structure of the cabin 200 as shown in FIG.

That is, the cabin 200 according to the present invention has a great feature in that the hull separate type, unlike the existing hull integral type.

Therefore, if necessary, the cabin 200 can be separated from the hull 100 at any time.

Cabin 200 according to the present invention has a structure that is fixed while being fitted between the hull 100, that is, the left hull (100a) and the priority body (100b). Therefore, the cabin 200 can be separated from the hull 100 at any time by releasing the fixed state.

Cabin 200 according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention is made by fixing both ends of the arc-shaped split cabin (200 ') to the upper frame 220 and the lower frame (230).

At this time, the buoyancy body 300 is fixed to the lower frame 230, the cabin ballast tank 210 is provided on both sides of the buoyancy body 300, respectively.

In addition, the upper frame 220 is fixed through the bolt or screw while maintaining the sealing state to the left hull (100a) and priority body (100b), respectively, at the same time across the left hull (100a) and priority body (100b) It is also fixed on the fixing block 240 is fixed through the bolt or screw has a stable double fixing structure.

Here, the upper frame 220 and the lower frame 230 according to the present invention uses a lightweight and durable aluminum frame.

Through this, a strong skeleton can be maintained, which is effective for enhancing safety.

In addition, the split cabin 200 'constituting the window of the cabin 200 is molded of polycarbonate resin to ensure sufficient durability while ensuring transparency.

In addition, in the present invention, a foreign matter adhesion prevention layer may be formed on the outer surface of the split cabin 200 ′ so that aquatic organisms such as scales and barnacles do not easily attach to and grow on the outer surface while maintaining the transparency of the cabin 200. .

At this time, the coating solution for forming the foreign matter adhesion layer is 15% by weight of cellulose acetate (terpenoids) containing terpenoids (Cellulose Acetate), diuron (Dieuron) containing disteadimonium hectorite (disteardimonium hectorite) 3.5 wt%, 30 wt% transparent silica, 4.5 wt% ceresin, 0.5 wt% zinc sulfate, 2.5 wt% oleamide, ethenyl acetate (CH ₂ CHCOOCH ₃ ) and trans-1,2 It is preferred that the ethylene dicarboxylic acid (C ₄ H ₄ O ₄ ) be molded into a molding composition consisting of 5.5% by weight of the mixed mixture at a weight ratio of 1: 0.5 and the remaining polycarbonate resin.

Herein, the cellulose acetate is an acetic acid ester obtained by acetylating a hydroxy group in a cellulose molecule, and has adhesion stability and durability improvement characteristics. Use is contained in a weight ratio of 1: 0.5.

In addition, the disteadimonium hectorite increases the floating force through the film formation of the coating surface, and also contributes to the control of the viscosity of the resin, it is also characterized by improving the moldability. In particular, Diuron (Diuron) is a kind of herbicide, but it is confirmed that the ability to inhibit aquatic plant adhesion, the disteadimonium hectorite is used that contains the diuron in a weight ratio of 1: 0.05.

In addition, the transparent silica has a typical transparency enhancement and water repellent properties are added to obtain the effect of making the view of the viewer even more clear.

In addition, the ceresin has a characteristic of enhancing the crack resistance by increasing the emulsion stability, maintaining the flexibility of the coating surface while increasing the bonding strength between the components.

In addition, the zinc sulfate is added to fix the adhesive component does not migrate to the surface, the oleamide (Oleamide) is added to increase the degree of freedom of application by maintaining a smooth flow by enhancing the lubricity.

In addition, the mixture of the ethenyl acetate (CH ₂ CHCOOCH ₃ ) and trans-1,2-ethylene dicarboxylic acid (C ₄ H ₄ O ₄ ) in a weight ratio of 1: 0.5 to enhance the properties of the resin, In particular, Ethenyl acetate can dramatically improve the surface durability by controlling the stiffness and tensile strength of the resin, and trans-1,2-ethylene dicarboxylic acid provides intergranular repulsion on the surface of the resin particles, intergranular entanglement It prevents phenomena and gives dispersion stability to enhance surface durability.

In addition, the polycarbonate resin is used as the typical resin and the same resin as the cabin 200 to increase the mutual interlocking.

As another example, as shown in FIG. 4, the window of the cabin 200 is formed as a tubular cabin 200 ″ instead of a split cabin, and the upper part of the cabin 200 is open cylindrical to maintain a state of riding while lowering the hull 100. Can be assembled by inserting.

At this time, the upper frame 220 and the lower frame 230 may be provided with a safety reinforced structure to process the pipe shape to support the inside of the cylindrical cabin 200 "to sufficiently withstand the water pressure.

In addition, the cabin ballast tank 210 may also be directly connected to the lower outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical cabin 200 "without a separate buoyancy body.

In this case, the foreign matter adhesion prevention layer is preferably formed on the outer surface of the cylindrical cabin (200 ") as it is.

This configuration has the advantage of easy maintenance because the cabin 200 can be separated.

In particular, as described above, by adjusting the number of ballasts in the hull ballast tank 110 and the cabin ballast tank 210 even when the cabin 200 is not separated, the cabin 200 as well as the cabin 200 can be floated to the surface. When not in use, the cabin 200 is exposed to the air so as not to be immersed in the water can be blocked in advance so that aquatic plant adhesion, growth does not occur.

In addition, even during periodic cleaning and cleaning operations, it is possible to raise and clean the surface without going through a marine crane, barge or diver, thus reducing maintenance costs, extending the service life, and keeping the viewing window clean at all times. There is an advantage that can improve the viewing view.

In addition, the buoyancy can be easily adjusted to operate smoothly even in places where the water depth is a little, do not get caught on the reef, etc. can eliminate the risk of damage or grounding can be further enhanced the safety.
