Definitions

  • One of the objects of the invention is to obtain a mechanism in which the fittings remain in a rest position from which they by means of a common manoeuvring member may automatically be brought into action and bring about an eflicient locking of the cover.
  • Another object of the invention is to obtain a mechanism composed of simple elements, which are easy to assemble and sturdy and reliable in use.
  • a further object of the invention is to obtain latching means operated by a common manoeuvring member in which a uniform pressure is exerted at the various fittings.
  • FIGURE 1 shows a detail view of part of the coaming with the cover in closed position.
  • FIGURE 2 shows a cross section through cover and coaming also with the cover in closed position.
  • FIGURE 3 shows a section along line IIIIII in FIG- URE 2.
  • FIGURE 4 shows the same detail with the fitting in rest position.
  • FIGURE 1 schematically are denoted by legend 3.
  • a plurality of such fittings for instance all fittings arranged on the same side of the cover, are arranged to be actuated by a rod 4 running along the coaming.
  • This rod may be pushed in its longitudinal direction by means of a hydraulic apparatus 5.
  • the figure shows how this hydraulic apparatus is located in the vicinity of the joint between two sections.
  • the fittings to both sides of the apparatus are turned in opposite directions in such a manner that they all will perform a closing movement during a pulling action of the rod.
  • Various types of manoeuvring mechanism for the operating of the rod may be utilized and with very long covers it might be advantageous to subdivide the operation in such a manner that groups of fittings along one side of the coaming may be operated independently of each other.
  • the coaming contains a horizontal strengthening flange 6, which is provided with a ledge 7 for co-operation with a packing arranged in the cover sections.
  • the flange also carries the separate fittings 3.
  • a forked locking member or keeper 8 is arranged on the cover section.
  • the flange 6 is provided with an oblong opening 9 at the location of each fitting through which opening a lever 10 is passing. This oblong, narrow opening guides the lever in a favourable manner.
  • the lever is designed as a straight rod, which "ice at its upper part is provided with an enlargement or knob 15 adapted to co-operate with the forked locking member 8.
  • the upper portion of the first lever 10 may alternatively be shaped as a loop, which co-operates with a single peg in the locking means.
  • the lever 10 is so long that in acting position, that is when the cover is closed, reaches below the longitudinal pulling rod 4. Close by the oblong opening 9 in the strengthening flange 6 of the coaming a bracket 11 consisting of two ears is arranged. To this bracket a double link 12 is articulated. This double link is also articulatedly fixed to the pulling rod 4 by means of two pivots 13, which simultaneously connect a U-shaped link or extension 14, which is fixed to the lever 10. Between this lever and the link 14 an elastic packing 16 is arranged, which makes it possible to exert a uniform pressure at all fittings. The rod is at the different fittings shaped like a frame, in such a manner that two parallel spaced-apart bars will enclose each fitting, protects them and also exerts an even pulling action at the second lever during the closure movement.
  • a latching device for a hatch cover comprising a coaming surrounding a hatch opening, a cover adapted to rest on said coaming when in closed position, an outwardly directed horizontal flange at at least two sides of the coaming and fittings mounted on the coaming adapted for cooperation with keeper means on the edges of the cover,
  • a latching device in which the lever is shaped as a straight rod having a knob at its upper end and in which the keeper means is designed as forked members.
  • a latching device in which a common pivot is arranged to connect the extension means of the lever as well as the lower end of the link to the rod.
  • a latching device for a hatch cover comprising a coaming surrounding a hatch opening, a cover adapted to rest on said coaming when in closed position, an outwardly directed horizontal flange at at least two sides of the coaming and fittings mounted on the coaming adapted for co-operation with keeper means on the edges of the cover,
  • a manoeuvring rod at least partly consisting of parallel spaced-apart bar-s running along the coaming below each flange and arranged to actuate several fittings simultaneously,
  • a latching device in which an elastic member is arranged between the U-shaped exten- 10 sion means and the lower part of the lever.
