Abstract

R95 PlSE LG / KOE P.ans. No. 0900054-8 S a m a n d r a g The invention relates to a fender construction (5) for ships. Inside the hull side of the ship (1), in a box (6) is receivable a fender (5) pivotable seen from above 180 °. Said fender (5) is motor-driven and said box (6) is closed- Said fender (5) and hull hatch bar by means of a hull hatch (3). (3) is supported by a common shaft (4) driven by an engine, the shaft (4) being located on one side of said fender and stored so that the hull hatch (3) is in line with the ship's hull near the fender. (5) is inside the box (6), but is inside the box (6) when the fender (5) is fully swung out. (Fig. 1)

Description

53 30 064 with the ship's hull when the fender is inside the box, but is inside the box when the fender is fully swung out.

No special height settings are needed then to adjust to different heights on quays and towards other boats. With the known fender, this can be displaced in the vertical direction. This requires i.a. major interventions in the ship's hull and mechanism.

Drawings show automatic recessed fenders according to the invention, in which: Fig. 1 shows recessed fenders in the hull of a ship, seen from above, Fig. 2 shows sections of recessed fender and closed hatch in the hull when the ship moves, seen from the side, Fig. 3 shows a section of flared fender and open hatch in the hull when the ship is at a jetty, seen from the side, Fig. 4 shows a cross-sectional view of the fender and hatch in the recessed resp. closed mode, and Pig. 5 shows a cross-sectional view of the fender and the door in the extended position.

The invention makes it possible to provide an automatic motor-driven fender.

A fender construction 8 has an automatic fender 5 received in a watertight box 6 in the hull side 1 of a ship 9, which is rotated 180 ° and the fender 5 comes out and the hull hatch 3 is pivoted into the box 6.

Automatic fenders have recessed fenders 5 and are shown from above. In Pig. l shows: hull side 1, receiving box 6, fender 5, door 3 in the hull l and shaft 4 with motor.

The side marked with BB in Fig. 1 shows the fender 5 turned 180 ° and ready to be laid against the quay. 10 15 20 25 30 534 053 The page marked with STB in Fig. 1 shows fenders 5 which are not in operation. Thus, they are inside the box 6 in the hull 1.

Fig. 2 resp. 4 shows an automatic fender seen from the side resp. from above recessed in the hull and in the closed position, when the vessel is moving and where 1. refers to the hull side of the vessel, 2. refers to the engine for a shaft, 3. refers to the external hull hatch, 4. refers to the motor-driven shaft, and 5. refers to the fender swung in , 6., 7., 9. and 14. shows the box, the waterline and the ship's and turning direction for the fender.

Fig. 3 resp. 5 shows an automatic fender seen from above in the flung-out position. This means: 1. hull side of the ship, 6. internal cast box, 3. external hull hatch, 4. motor-driven shaft, 5. fender in the swung-out position rotated 180 ° and ready for use. 7, 8 and 14 show waterline, fender construction resp. fender turning direction.

In the drawings, Figs. 2 resp. 4 automatic fender 5 in section with recessed fender 5, and where 1 refers to the hull of the vessel 9. An engine 2 rotates the fender 5 180 ° back and forth via a shaft 4. The hull hatch 3 is shown in closed position with the fender 5 inside the box 6. Box 6 is an internally cast tight box.

The waterline of the vessel is denoted by the number 7. 14 denotes the direction of rotation of a fender 5 and 1 denotes the continuation of the hull side.

Fig. 3 resp. 5 shows automatic fender 1 in section with flared fender 1, when the vessel 9 is at a jetty. There are: 1. ship's hull, 2. engine that turns the shaft 4 180 ° back and forth, 3. hull hatch swung into the box, 4. shaft, 5. fender in swung position, 6. internal cast tight box, 7. waterline on the ship . 10 534 063 Collective designation list: Hull side.
