INVENTOR JOSEPH BATORFY, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
MARINE VESSEL.
Application filed November 10. 1919.
T0 aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOSEPH BA'roRrY, a citizen of Hungary, and a resident of New York, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Marine Vessels, of which the following is a specification.
The present invention relates to improvements in marine-Vessels, and has for its main object to provide a ship with means which render it insubmergible or non-sinkable, more particularly means which are capable of being applied to already existing ships without necessitating material changes in the construction of the latter.
Another object of the invention is to provide means for preventing a vessel from sinking, which is simple in construction, efiicient in operation and which does in no way affect the speed of the vessel, it being wholly mounted above the water line of the hull thereof.
lVith these and other objects in view, which will more fully appear as the nature of the invention is better understood, the same consists in the combination, arrangement and construction of parts hereinafter described, pointed out in the appended claims and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, it being understood that many changes may be made in the size and proportion of the several parts and details of construction, within the scope of the appended claims, without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention.
One of the many possible embodiments of the invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure l is a side elevation of a ship with the invention applied thereto; Fig. 2 is a section taken on line 22 of Fig. 1; Fig. 3 is a side elevation of the ship, on a larger scale, partly in section; Fig. 4 is a section taken on line H of Fig. 3; and Fig. 5 is a section similar to the one shown in Fig. l of a detail of construction, on a still larger scale.
In the drawings, the numeral 10 indicates the hull of a ship of any suitable construction. This hull is provided with a suitable number of decks, denoted in the drawings by the numerals 11, the construction of which need not be described herein as it does not form part of the present invention. The vessel is provided above the water line,
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Apr. 20, 1920. Serial No. 337.093.
all around its hull, with an outwardly projecting casing-like construction 12, the top 13 of which is preferably flush with the uppermost deck or" the hull, while its bottom ltt is constituted by a grating, diagrammatically shown in the drawings. In this manner a compartment is formed all around the hull, said compartment having a filling 15 of buoyant material, preferably bulrush.
The sides of the hull are provided with the usual ports 16, and in alinement with these ports are formed openings 18 in the sides 17 of the casing-like construction 12, said openings being connected with the respective ports by tubular members 19, so as to admit light and air to the ports. The ports are provided with covers, not shown, as usual in constructions of this type.
Below each deck 11, there is provided a grating 20, the space between this grating and the deck being filled with a suitable buoyant material, denoted by the numeral 21, also preferably bulrush.
In order to prevent injury to the hull by collision, its bow carries a fender 22, in the form of a curved plate member. This plate member is attached to bars 23,-that extend horizontally through the hull, suitable packing means, not shown, being provided for atthe points where the said bars extend through the hull. The fender is spaced from the hull, springs 24 being interposed between said fender and said hull, to take up the shock of a possible collision. The curved fender plate is provided at its lower edge with a grating 25, supporting buoyant material 26, with which the space between the fender plate and the bow of the hull is filled.
The fillings of the casing-like construction 12 and below the several decks of the hull greatly increase the buoyancy of the vessel, keeping the same afloat even in case the hull is injured below the water line and fills with water.
The operation of the fender need not be described, as the same is well-known, attention being, however, called to the fact that the space between its plate and the bow of the vessel is utilized to carry buoyant material.
It is to be observed that the means for preventing a sinking of the vessel is so constructed that it can be easily applied to already existing constructions, without necessitating changes therein. Attention is also Wholly disposed fact that the casing 12 is above the Water line, and will thus not affect the normal speed of the vessel.
What I claim is 1. The combination with a ships hull, of a casing-like construction extending all around said hull above the Water line thereof, the bottom of said casing-like construccalled to the;
-tion being formed by a grating, said casinglike construction projecting outwardly from said hull and being filled with buoyant material resting on said grating.
2. A ship according to claim 1, comprising a plurality of decks, a grating below each deck, and buoyant material filling the space between each grating and the respective deck.
Signed at New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, this 14th day of October, 1919.
JOSEPH BATORFY.
