Definitions

  • ABSTRACT are embodied in the boat which allow for removably attaching various devices such as propulsion units, deck chairs and the like to the boat deck.
  • PATENTED APR 1 71573 sum u 0F 1 a at BOAT FOR USE AS A LIFEBOAT AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION I a number of propulsive means suitable for such purpose.
  • the user of the boat should be able to quickly initiate and effect rescue operations from a stable platform provided on the boat.
  • Such advantageous characteristics in a boat have not been provided in known forms of boat construction since, while in some instances known boat types may possess certain of the aforementioned requirements, others are lacking. For example, lifeboats of'the conventional type, including whaleboat types, are not as readily maneuverable in confined areas as is desirable.
  • known types of lifeboats do not provide or embody a flat main deck located close to the water level and upon which a rescuer can stand during the time of effecting rescue so that such convenience can be used to advantage in making the rescue. Additionally, known types of boats do not provide unobstructed vision to those standing in the boat when they are close to the person in distress in the water, since the relatively high sides of the boat partly block viewing of the water area immediately around the boat.
  • the present invention is concerned generally with an improved form of small ,boat especially suited for lifesaving service.
  • its design is such that it can be simply and quickly converted for recreational uses, for example, use for surfing, water skiing, fishing, sailingand the like.
  • the boat is comprised of an elongated relatively shallow hull including a suitable framework covered with a skin of lightweight material, the hull being characterized by beingsubstantially elliptical in plan outline and semi-elliptical. in transverse section.
  • the hull which preferably is double-ended with symmetrically rounded bow and Stern parts also includes a substantially flat flush deck extending from stem to stern and the full width of the hull, the deck having an overhanging part extending outboard of the hull with the buoyancy of the hull being such that the hull has very little freeboard so that the deck is substantially at water level.
  • the hull is filled with a material which is substantially impenetrable to water and has a specific gravity of less than -1 .0, thereby making the hull unsinkable.
  • An important feature of the invention is the provision of a plurality of plates having threaded tubular parts which are secured permanently to the deck at suitable locations and provide with cooperating threaded fasteners, means with which certain auxiliary devices-can be removably secured to the hull and/or deck.
  • auxiliary devices principally include means for propelling the boat, including chain driven paddle wheel drive, outboard motor, airscrew, or oars.
  • the invention accordingly comprises the boat possessing the features, properties and relationship of elements which will beexemplified in the construction hereinafter described and the scope of the invention will be indicated in the claims.
  • FIG. 1 is a plan view of a boat constructed in accordance with the principles of the present invention, there being depicted variousforms of auxiliary devices which can be embodied in the boat, e.g., propulsion means, a portion of the deck of the boat being broken away to depict the. internal construction of the hull.
  • auxiliary devices e.g., propulsion means
  • FIG. 2 is a side elevational view of the boat shown in FIG. 1, certain of the auxiliary devices shown in FIG. 1 not being depicted in FIG. 2.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 are, respectively, a plan and a side elevational view of an alternate form of the boat in which the hull is made collapsible for convenience in handling and storing of the same.
  • FIG. 5 is a side elevational view of the boat shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 in collapsed condition.
  • FIG. 6 is a perspective view depicting an attachment for the boat hull employed for mounting an outboard motor on the hull.
  • FIG. 7 is a fragmentary side elevational view of one end of the boat depicting an alternate form of propulsion, i.e., an airscrew which can be employed with the boat.
  • FIG. 8 depicts a ring member which can be secured to the boat hull at the side thereon in the manner shown in FIG. 9 for attaching lifelines to the boat.
  • FIG. 9 is a fragmentary transverse sectional viewof one side of theboat hull showing the manner of securing the ring members of the type depicted inFIG. 8 on the hull for attaching a lifeline at the side of the boat.
  • FIG. 10 is a fragmentary vertical sectional view showing threaded insert plates which can be secured to the deck of the boat and employed in conjunction with fastener components l0'for attaching various auxiliary devices such as propulsion means, chains, etc. to the boat.
  • FIG. 11 is a fragmentary plan view of a further form of boat in which one or more stabilizing outriggers can be connected to the boat deck, there being shown additionally a canvass curtain which can be removably erected on the deck of the hull to function as a breakwater.
  • FIG. 12 is a fragmentary elevational view taken along the line 12-12 ofFiG. l1.
  • the present invention is concerned with a boat particularly suited for use in lifesaving operations.
  • Its hull construction is such that it embodies excellent characteristics of speed without employing conventional hull streamlining features therein, e.g., a sharp and high prow with a pronounced sheer.
  • the boat has the attributes of excellent seaworthiness, high maneuverability, is unsinkable and by reason of its flush deck being substantially at water level is specially suited for the recovery of swimmers in distress in the water.
  • the boat is readily adapted for other uses, such as for recreational purposes and can be fitted out for such purposes by removably connecting special auxiliary devices to the hull, the hull being provided with special attachment means to effectuate the foregoing.
  • the boat includes a hull H, the hull having a shell 1 formed around a hull frame which for example, can include the usual keel 27 and interconnected transverse frames 202, 204, and on top of which is secured a substantially flat flush deck 2, the deck being provided with an overhanging part (FIG. 9) extendingoutboard of the hull and connected therewith such as to form an airtight structure thereby rendering the boat substantially unsinkable.
  • the hull is designed to have little, if any, freeboard and a buoyancy such that the underface of the overhanging deck part normally is substantially at water level.
  • the hull is symmetrically shaped at its opposite ends and enlarges uniformly in width from the symmetrically rounded bow and stern parts to a maximum width amidships at the transverse centerline location. Furthermore, the hull is of relatively shallow depth with such depth being of a minimum at the bow and stem ends and increasing uniformly in the direction of the transverse centerline of the hull to a point of maximum depth at such location. In general, the plan outline of the hull is substantially elliptical and the transverse sectional shape is semi-elliptical.
  • the hull H preferably is made from lightweight highly durable materials.
  • the keel 27 and framing members 202, 204 can be made, for example, from aluminum or magnesium.
  • the shell 1 along with the deck 2 also can be made from suitable lightweight materials including fiber reinforced synthetic resins, laminated synthetic resin, or thin gage metal sheets as for example aluminum sheet. Together the framing and the shell of the hull provide a watertight enclosure rendering the hull virtually unsinkable.
  • the hull could be formed as a rigid structure by molding the shell as one component and securing the flush deck thereto in permanent watertight connection therewith.
  • the hull has rounded bow and stern ends which provide a number of advantages including unlimited visibility to a user standing on the deck who may be approaching a swimmer in distress as well as the convenience of not offering sharp obstruction to the person in the water thereby avoiding the likelihood of causing injury if the boat strikes or otherwise contacts the swimmer during rescue.
  • the feature of the hull being double-ended is highly advantageous in lifesaving operations. It enables a lifeguard standing on the deck 2 to approach a person in distress in the water with accuracy and rapidity because of optimum visibility. Moreover, the low flush deck 2 being substantially at water level greatly facilitates the rescuers lifting or pulling a distressed swimmer onto the deck. Furthermore, it enables the lifeguard to always be in full control of the course of the boat and permits rapid change in course if such is required.
  • the lifeguard is thus capable of effecting a complete change of course in the absolute minimum of time without having to turn the boat, rather, he merely changes his direction.
  • the deck 2 of the boat can be provided with an encircling rim part 3 which as shown in FIG. 9 can comprise an integral part of the deck and shell 1 or which may be made as a separate element securable to the deck 2 as shown in FIG. 9.
  • the encircling rim has an upstanding ledge 3a which provides a handhold means for persons in the water and wishing to board the boat as well as a foot support for a lifeguard standing on the deck.
  • the deck 2 can, as mentioned earlier, be provided with an overhang 4 (FIG. 9), such overhanging part extending outboard of the hull and serving to receive a number of ring components 5 through which can be secured a lifeline 6.
  • the lifeline as will be noted in FIG. 2, encircles the hull at both sides and provides handhold means to serve a substantially large number of swimmers in the water.
  • FIG. 10 An important feature of the present invention is the use of means embodied in the boat to permit ready and convenient mounting and demounting of various auxiliary devices on the boat.
  • Such means are shown especially in FIG. 10 and include a plate 8 including a tubular bore part 7 which extends through a hole in the deck 2 and internally of the hull.
  • the plate 8 is intended to be secured in permanent manner to the deck by any suitable connector means such as an adhesive, welding or the like.
  • the tubular bore part 7 is threaded and serves to receive the companion screw thread part 9 of a plug 10, the latter thus serving to securely mount auxiliary devices to the deck and/or hull.
  • FIGS. land 2 depict various ones of the auxiliary devices which can be used in conjunction with the boat.
  • the use of such devices and the convenience for mounting and demounting of the same gives the boat of the present invention the multi-purpose utility desirable in small boats used for lifesaving and recreational purposes.
  • One such auxiliary device is comprised of a seat 11 fitted with feet 141 which are secured to the deck 2 by means of threaded plugs adjacent one end of the boat.
  • the seat 11 preferably is mounted for swiveling movement so that for the intended purpose of receiving a rower, such rower may face either the bow or the stern of the boat during rowing, the feature of swiveling thus enabling the rower to rapidly change the boat course by turning around the rowing position.
  • Connected to the seat 11 and extending upwardly and outwardly therefrom are a pair of arms 12 at the ends of which are fixed oarlocks 13.
  • the seat 11 provides ready adaptation of the boat for rowing purposes.
  • the boat may be provided with bench 15 which is secured to the boat deck 2 by means of pads 140 in conjunction with use of plugs !l0 to hold the pads secure on the deck.

  • An operators seat 45 can be removably connected to the deck adjacent the airscrew.
  • an outboard motor for propelling the boat such motor 28 can be secured to the stern of the boat on a suitable upright mount 23.
  • the upright mount 23 includes a relatively wide plate-like part and a downwardly extending arm 25 which terminates in a pair of jaws 26 which as shown in FIG. 2 gird the keel of the boat.
  • Another set of jaws 24 are provided to gird the deck of the boat at the stern and a forwardly extending plate 36 carries the weight of the mount and provides means with which the unit can be secured to the boat with plugs 10.
  • the motor 28 is secured to the mount 23 in known manner with its housing 29 extending below the water a sufficient distance to permit the propeller 30 to obtain a good bite in the water.
  • the conventional tiller 37 of the motor can be used.
  • a vertically depending rod 34 connected to plate 36 and having a crank 35 at the upper end.
  • the rod at its lower end is fixed to a water plane 31 which is provided as a relatively flat widened plate pivoted as at 33 to the boat hull and having a straddling bracket arrangement 32 formed thereon for further securing the plane 31 to the hull.
  • the plane 31 is provided for the purpose of raising and lowering the bow of the boat when it is being propelled at high speeds by an outboard motor or airscrew.
  • auxiliary devices which can be removably secured to the boat are limited only by the intended type of service of the boat.
  • an additional seat 38 having a mounting plate 39 integral therewith can be secured to the deck by means of plugs 10 to provide an additional seat for the helmsman.
  • FIG. 11 depicts another form of device, an outrigger float 310 which can be secured by means of outrigger arms 312 to the deck 2 using for that purpose the plugs 10 in the same manner as described earlier.
  • the outrigger float in the usual manner enhances the stability of the boat, being at the same level as deck 2.
  • OUtrigger arms 312 can be made extendible if desired.
  • a canvass curtain 3620 can be removably erected on the deck 2.
  • a number of upright standards 322 can be removably received in the tubular bore parts of the plates 8, being spaced around the deck at suitable intervals and a canvass curtain 320 can be suspended from the tops of the standards 322.
  • the canvass at the bottom also could be led over the side of the boat as at 326 and be secured to the rings 5 at thevundersurface of the deck overhanging part.
  • a substantially rigid breakwater 330 can be used in conjunction with the curtain and can be mounted on the deck 2 in the same manner as the curtain 320, the breakwater preferably being a one piece molded plastic device with suitable rubber base booting 334.
  • the boat can be made as a collapsible structure in the manner depicted in FIGS. 3-5.
  • the boat is made in identical front and rear halves 1a and lb connected along the transverse centerline by a suitablehinge 39,
  • the present invention provides a highly maneuverable, speedy boat which can be used for a number of purposes, including lifesaving, sailing and the like.

  • Weight of such boat can vary between 60 and pounds depending on the materials. used for construction.
  • the excellent seaworthiness and ease with which the boat of the present invention can be controlled makes it ideally suitable for lifesaving to the extent that in heavy storms it can be used to replace helicopters as the principal lifesaving unit of a rescue station.
  • the boat permits three persons to use the same while performing three different propulsion functions.
  • one person can be seated on the seat 18 and power the boat through the paddle wheel arrangement 20.
  • a second person can row the boat from seat 11, while a third person standing on the boat can use a large double-ended paddle for propulsion.
  • two of the persons propelling the boat are facing the direction of movement to further enhance the sighting of the person in the water in distress.
  • the boat also could be employed for sculling with short sculling oars. Because of the flat deck 2 which is close to the water, the boat is ideally suited for clandestine purposes due to the fact that being so close to the water it would be difficult to detect a person lying prone on the deck and approaching a hostile shore except at very close proximity to the boat.
  • Construction of the hull is such as to render the boat unsinkable in distinction with the known open types of boat hulls used for lifesaving purposes which if they become filled with water are susceptible to capsizing.
