PASSENGER SHIP Filed Oct. 24, 1931 Even far.
[atented Jan. 3, 1933 UNITED- STATES PATENT OFFICE JAN BLOKLAND VISSER, OF FLUSHING, NETHERLANDS, ASSIGNOR TO I-IAAMLOOZE VENNOOTSCHAP: KONINKLIJKE MAATSCHAP PIJ DE SCHELIDE, SCHEEISBOUVV EH WERKTUIGENFABRIEK, OF FLUSHING, NETHERLANDS,
NETHERLANDS a coerce-Arron on THE PASSENGER SHIP Application filed October 24, 1931, Serial No. 570,944, and in the Netherlands November 1, 1930.
The invention relates to a passenger ship or cargoand passenger ship wit-h outer and inner cabins arranged athwartships with regard to each other.
If the inner cabins in athwartships direction are situated completely behind the outer cabins, as is the case in many passenger ships and cargoand passenger-ships these inner cabins have no direct communication with the open air and moreover no daylight. Especially for ships travelling on tropic seas this is a considerable disadvantage, the inner cabins of course being very undesirable owing to the absence of natural ventilation and the lack of daylight.
It has been tried in variousways to remove this drawback. Ships have been constructed in which, maintaining the total number, all cabins have been made outer cabins by malting the cabins in fore and aft direction narrower and in athwartships direction longer. However, by doing so the cabins obtain a very unfavourable lengthened form.
In some passenger ships each inner cabin ends in a narrow space, passing along the adjacent outer cabin which space communicates with the open air. This construction will not lead to an efiicient natural ventilation and lighting, and moreover this space is generally too narrow as to be included in the inhabitable part of the cabin.
The invention gives a definite solution of the given problem.
According to the invention one or more rows of inner cabins are elevated in such a way that these inner cabins have a direct communication with the open air and the daylight across the relative outer cabins and in this way also obtain the character of outer cabins.
The construction according to the invention will lead furthermore to a number of other important advantages.
In the first place the invention enables to use the passages in fore and aft direction, which become available in consequence of the mentioned raising, for arranging the lifeboats, for promenade deck or for service purposes. I
Moreover the large number of outer doors Tropics the advantage that the superstructure in which the passengers are accommodated, has the possibility of continuously maintaining air currents.
By arranging the lite-boats in the above mentioned passages they are placed on a lower level than on the boat deck used until now, so that they may be lowered with more speed and safety. Their more central arrangement in the ship makes them more easily accessible for embarking.
Furthermore the centre of gravity of the life-boats will be situated lower, so that more cabins may be arranged in the upper part of the ship, e. g. on the boat deck which will in th t case become vacant. The space available for sport on this deck may be extended over the full width of the ship.
Finally according to the invention a part of the space confined by the lower walls of the displaced inner cabins and the inner walls of the longitudinal passage of the outer cabins may be used as a trunk for various piping-s (pipes for water supply and draining etc).
By this a large number of valve-boxes in the ships hull may be saved.
The elevated cabins and any cabins constructed above the same may be provided with windows instead of with side lights, due to the protected situation which also renders it possible to keep these windows open in almost every weather condition. Moreover the sunlight will not shine into the cabin too violently, and therefore .not cause any inconvenience which is a special advantage in the Tropics. 7
Moreover a natural consequence of the elevating of the inner cabins is that the dining rooms over a large part of their width may be built considerably higher than hitherto has been the case.
In the annexed drawing showing an em- Part 1 is an outer cabin belonging to a roW of these cabs in fore and aft direct-ion and 2 an inner cabin, also belonging to a row in the same direction. The cabins 2 are raised in such a way with regard to the cabins 1 with their adjoining longitudinal passage 11, that they have direct communication with the open air. In the outer wall 3 of these cabins 2 one or more windows 1 are arranged, communicating with the longitudinal passage 5.
In the embodiment of the drawing a further row of cabins 10 is built upon the roW of cabins 2, the windows 14 also communicating with the passage 5. The row of cabins 1 is accessible through the passage 11, and the cabins 2 and 10 by means of the passages 12 and 13.
The passage 5 in fore and aft direction is used for stowing the life boats 7 In this embodiment they are stowed on a special part 6 of the deck, dividing the passage 5 into two parts arranged one above the other. The part 6 of the deck is made somewhat lower with regard to the deck C in order to prevent looking into the cabins 10.
The row of cabins 2 being raised with regard to the row of cabins 1, a space is formed, confined by the inner wall of the passage along the cabins 1 and the floor of the cabins 2. This space may be used as a trunk 8, in which the :pipings for water supply and draining purposes, the ventilating ducts and electric mains are fitted. If desired this trunk may contain any other pipings which must be led along .some distance in fore and aft direction through the ship.
Numeral 15 indicates the load-line, the various decks being indicated by the letters AK. The A-deck and the B-deck are available for promenade deck, sporting deck, state-rooms, special cabins etc.
The shape of the dining room 9 is much more favourable than in many of the constructions hitherto known because it is higher for a considerable part of its width.
lVithin the limits of the invention, that is raising a row of inner cabins, various embodiments are possible.
I claim 1. A passenger ship or cargoand passenger ship with outer and inner cabins arranged athwartships with regard to each other one or more rows of inner cabins being raised in their entirety by about one half of the height of the cabin above the outer cabins so that the inner cabins have direct communication with the open air and the daylight across the relative outer cabins and in this way also obtain the character of outer cabins.
2. A passenger ship or cargoand passenger ship according to claim 1, comprising a passageway for the outer cabins positioned between the outer and inner rows of cabins,
extending in afore and aft direction, and a trunk for conduits defined by the floor of the raised cabins and the inner side walls of said passageway.
3. A ship comprising a plurality of decks, one deck having outer and inner rows of cabins, the super-adjacent deck having its outer cabins positioned directly over said inner row of cabins and spaced above the superadjacent deck, said inner row of cabins being also spaced above the superadjacent deck a distance suilicient to place the same in direct communication with the exterior atmosphere.
4. A ship comprising a plurality of decks, one deck having outer and inner rows of cabins, the superadjacent deck having its outer cabins positioned directly over said inner row of cabins and spaced above the superadjacent deck, said inner row of cabins being also spaced above the superadjacent deck a distance sullicient to place the same in direct communication with the exterior atmosphere, and an open deck positioned above the superadjacent deck at a level approximating the ceiling level of the raised inner row of cabins.
5. A ship with outer and inner cabins arranged athwartships with regard to each other, the inner cabins being at a level above the outer cabins equivalent to about one half the height of the cabins so as to afford communication of the inner cabins with the exterior atmosphere.
In testimony whereof I ailix my signature.
