Definitions
- ABSTRACT This invention relates to a boat structure, and it deals more particularly with a ski type of boat structure embodying improvement of the planing surfaces of the hydroskis.
- planing surfaces on the hull designed to develop zero or small negative lift as the speed of the boat increases; and attached thereto are a pair of forwardly located hydro-skis and a rearwardly located hydro-ski, said forward hydro-skis having primary and secondary planing surfaces in angular relationship such as to first cause the hull to quickly leave the water surface upon increasing speed of the boat to achieve maximum planing efficiency and, secondly, substantially eliminate skidding on turns by means of introduction of pivotal drag through the angle of incidence of said secondary hydro-ski surfaces engaged in making a turn.
- FIGS 55 Louie Deprez Hurgefl Ellis Rose Aught Boone Diul,
- the field of this invention resides broadly in the design of the boats adapted to achieve high speeds over water by reduction of the friction or drag usually encountered in the employment of a normal hull type of structure which is subject to the maximum resistance of the body of water and the further impeding effect achieved by cavitation set up by the inherent shape of the hull surfaces.
- boats adapted to travel at high speed over the surface of the water, rather than through the water have been adopted by making use of certain aerodynamic principles in their adaptation to liquids rather than air.
- a patent to Beoericke, US. Pat. No. 2,890,672 discloses a hydrofoil device which, again comprises a plurality of vertically disposed fins or foils supported by a vertical structure which is unguarded in its attack upon the surface of the water, and therefore subject to the danger of breakage and damage from submerged objects. There is also no means provided in the structure to prevent skidding on turns equivalent to the secondary surfaces provided on the skis of the present invention.
- a patent to Canazzi, US. Pat. No. 3,051,115 discloses a four point planing type of speed boat hull. While this disclosure reveals a secondary non-trip and spray rail, it does not disclose the type of secondary planing surface in a ski adapted to dig into the surface of the water and form a pivot around which the boat may turn with the minimum amount of skidding while planing with the hull completely out of the water.
- This patent is directed primarily to the structure of the hull itself and the tunnel effect of the hull, thereby causing air to lubricate the rear planing sections of the hull. This patent does not deal with the sophisticated development of a ski system adapted to provide the minimum number of points of suspension on the surface of the water, thereby decreasing the number of friction surfaces available for drag.
- a salient feature in connection therewith resides in our employment of a hydro-ski as the bouyant support structure for a boat, said hydro-ski members having a plurality of coacting planing surfaces arranged with an angle of attack relative to the water, at initial acceleration, such as to cause the boat to rise immediately through its primary lifting planes into surface cruising position on its secondary planing surfaces.
- a further object ofthe invention is to provide a high speed surface-borne boat structure adapted to negotiate turns at such speeds without skidding or a tripping effect relative to the water and the attendant danger of overturning.
- Another important object of the invention is to provide a hydro-ski boat structure that is stable at speeds in excess of knots, and one which has less likelihood of damage from striking submerged objects.
- hydro-ski boat structure of the character described herein meets all of the handling qualities at a speed of 45 to knots, which a good speed boat should possess.
- our hydroski displays distinct advantages over such structures. For example, there is less cavitation or destructive drag with the ski over the foil in our adaptation thereof, and our ski boat is safely maneuverable within the total speed range. It banks properly, even in tight turns, at top speed and, due to the unique design of the skis, does not skid out of the turn.
- ski design for support of our boat structure, to provide maximum maneuverability, dictates the use of a system of forward and rearward skis, with the use of a pair of forward skis mounted in tandem with at least one separate rearward ski. It will be seen that the ski design is such that they are selfguarding as to their support members, and obviate the loss of a support through striking an object at high speed.
- a new type of hydro-ski boat which consists of a hull and two pairs of hydro-skis attached rigidly to the load carrying structure of the boat hull.
- the bottom surface of the hull as viewed lengthwise has laterally a concave curvature, thus forming a tunnel.
- the lateral arc of curvature starts at zero at the bow, increases to a maximum at about percent of the boat length, then decreases from said bow point to the stern, and it is essentially fiat at the stern.
- the shape of the hull in the longitudinal plane is designed to develop Zero, or a small negative lift, by leaving the upper surface of the hull essentially flat over most of the body, and only a small convex curvature at the forward portion.
- the lower side of the hull in the longitudinal plane consists of an s-shaped section extending to the quarter point of the longitudinal chord. From thereon the bottom surface is essentially flat.
- the forward pair of hydro-skis consist of a number of planing surfaces which serve two essential purposes.
- the primary surfaces plane on the water surface and provide the necessary lift for the boat. They are curved in a certain fashion, at certain critical angles, to form a decreasing angle of attack from the tip of the hydroski to its trailing edge.
- the secondary surfaces which are inclined to the planing surfaces or set normal to them, provide the necessary side force for turning the boat, by creating a pivotal point, and prevent it from skidding out of the turn.
- the rear pair of hydro-skis are also rigidly connected to the hull structure of the boat. However, they have a smaller track allowing the rear pair to run in the wake of the forward skis. They consist of one planing surface, which has, again, a decreasing angle of attack starting at the tip of the hydro-ski and approaching the trailing edge. The planing surface is flanked by a pair of upwardly inclined surfaces on each side thereof.
- the rear hydro-skis are planing sideways on the water surface in the direction of the thrust, which is provided by the outboard motor, or such other power source as may be used to propel the boat.
- Low take off speed is a salient feature of such a structure, and is achieved by the large planing surfaces of the front skis having a relatively large angle of attack at the front portion of the ski.
- the front pair of hydro-skis are elevated with increasing speed, causing an increased angle of attack of the rear hydro-skis, thereby developing more lift, and they also begin to rise.
- the craft rises progressively out of the water, successively emerging the surfaces of the hull and skis which are no longer needed for lift.
- the boat rides only on the rear portions of the planing surfaces of both front and rear hydro-skis at a rather low, or zero, angle of attack.
- the excess planing surfaces are no longer in contact with the water and are not causing any excess drag which would interfere with the performance of the boat.
- FIG. 1 is a side elevational view of an improved hydro-ski speed boat constructed in accordance with the principles of our present invention.
- the power plant or propulsion means which could optionally be an outboard or other type of motor, is not shown in order that the boat hull may be better seen.
- FIG. 2 is a bottom plan view of the boat hull and hydro-skis shown in FIG. 1.
- FIG. 3 is a front elevational view thereof, along lines 3-3 of FIG. 1.
- FIG. 4 is a rear elevational view thereof, along lines 44 of FIG. 1.
- FIG. 5 is a partial transverse sectional view taken along line 55 of FIG. 1.
- FIG. 6 is a partial transverse sectional view taken along the line 66 of FIG. 1.
- FIG. 7 is a partial transverse sectional view taken along the line 77 of FIG. 2.
- FIG. 8 is a fragmentary longitudinal sectional view taken along the line 88 of FIG. 11.
- FIG. 9 is a fragmentary transverse sectional view taken along the line 99 of FIG. 2.
- FIG. 10 is a fragmentary transverse sectional view taken along the line 10l0 of FIG. 2.
- FIG. 11 is a perspective view of the forward starboard hydro-ski as shown in FIG. 2.
- the complete boat hull is generally designated by the numeral 20.
- the hull 20 is of substantially rectangular shape.
- the bottom 21, which is flanked by the sides 22 and the stem 23, is a three dimensional surface.
- the trace of the center-line of the bottom surface is shown in FIG. 1 as a dashed line.
- Its curvature, relatively s-shaped beginning at the bow 24, is concave-relative to the bottom of the hullreaching its maximum at about l0 percent of the boat length.
- the curvature from this point decreases thereafter and becomes convex, with its maximum reached at about 25 percent of the boat length.
- the curvature then decreases again as the stem 23 is approached becoming essentially flat.
- the transverse or lateral arc of curvature of the bottom surface 21, as shown in FIG. 5, begins at the bow 24 with zero curvature; and thereafter it changes to a concave curvature viewed from the outside of the boat hull 20, reaching its maximum at approximately ten percent of the length of the boat; and it decreases thereafter as the stem 23 of the hull is approached.
- the surface 25 is connected to the bottom 21 at approximately two-thirds the length of the boat and is longitudinally inclined to said surface of the bottom at a small angle of about 5 and terminates at the stem 23.
- flanking wedge-like panels 26 are inclined outwardly and upwardly at an approximate angle of 45, and are connected to bottom surface 21, stern 23 and surface 25 to form a rigid structure together with the stem 23, whereupon may be mounted an outboard motor or any other suitable power source, with an extended downwardly projecting propeller.
- the forward pair of hydro-skis are attached rigidly to the load carrying structure of the boat by means of the struts 27 and 28 as shown in FIGS. 1 and 11.
- these skis have a primary planing surface 29.
- This surface is laterally straight and longitudinally bent to form an increasing angle of incidence from zero degrees at the trailing edge to approximately fifteen degress at the tip.
- the inner side of the planing surface 29, as seen in FIG. 2 runs parallel to the center line of the boat bull to approximately 40 percent of the span of the surface 29.
- a sine-shaped line is thereafter the continuation up to about 50 to 52 percent of the span, extending outwardly to roughly one-half the width of the planing surface 29. From there on, the inner edge or side is parallel to the center line again up to the trailing edge.
- the outer edge of the surface 29 is formed by a parabolic line making, at the tip, an angle of about to with the inner edge of said surface.
- the maximum width of surface 29 is obtained at about fifth percent of the span. From there on, the outer edge is straight and tapering off slightly, when the trailing edge of the surface is approached.
- the secondary surface 33 flanks the outer side of the planing surface 29. It is inclined to the latter at an angle of approximately 45 and extends outwardly and up wardly.
- the width of the surface 33 tapers off at the ratio of approximately three to one as the trailing edge of the ski is approached.
- spray rail 34 which extends from the forward tip of the secondary surface to approximately half the span of the hydro-ski; then again tapering off to a smaller width at the end.
- the complete inner edge of the primary planing surface 29 is flanked by a vertical secondary surface 36 to which the two supporting struts 27 and 28 are rigidly attached.
- another planing surface 35 is rigidly attached to the secondary surface 36, as best seen in FIG. 10.
- Surface 35 is elevated and out of plane with respect to the surface 29. It is furthermore inclined downwardly and inwardly by about 5, so that the inner edge of the surface 35 has an elevation of approximately one-half inch over, or just above, the bottom level of the surface 29.
- the forward edge of 29 and the inner edge of 35 are a straight line as seen in FIG. 2.
- the forward tip of 35 is beveled upward where it attaches to 36, to prevent a vacuum from developing behind the curved section of 36.
- both surfaces 29 and 35 form a typical step as best seen in FIG. 10.
- An auxiliary pair of planing surfaces 31 and 30 are attached to the inner side of secondary surface 36. Both of these surfaces, in connection with the continuation 32 of the spray surface 34, extend to approximately percent of the span of the forward hydro-ski.
- the lifting surface 31 is longitudinally inclined backwards and downwards at approximately 40 degrees, so that the rear edge has the same elevation as the forward tip of the planing surface 29.
- the auxiliary planing surface 30 extends further backwards and is essentially horizontal, or it might be inclined at a rather small angle downwards.
- the ratio of the surface areas to each other is illustratively demonstrated in FIG. 2.
- the boat Upon giving left rudder control through the propulsion means, the boat begins to swing into the turn.
- the rear portion of the hull will naturally tend to swing to the right or outwardly.
- the forward skis will slip sideways, with their tips pointing into the turn, or to the left.
- the inner ski has slightly les speed. and consequently submerges slightly more than the outer ski this is by common dynamics know to be approximately proportional to the velocity difference squared.
- This causes the surface 35 due to the slightly downward inclined angle of 35 and the sidewash of the water in the neighborhood of the trailing edge of the inner ski to submerge further, until the surface is in an approximately horizontal and properly banked attitude.
- the inner hydro-ski forms a true pivot point about which the boat turns.
- the outer hydro-ski will tend to rise more because of the slightly higher velocity and the outwardly and upwardly inclined surface 33. It will actually rise up the wall of water being displaced thereby and therefore causes the hull to tilt and bank further to the inner side of the left turn.
- the rearward pair of hydro-skis are of a simpler design.
- a positioning of the same by extension of a propeller, jet or fan, as the casemay be, more to the rear to clear the trailing edge of the rearward ski a single rear ski of the same design could be employed. This will be obvious from the operation and design of these skis.
- the rear skis are also rigidly attached to the load carrying structure of the hull 20.
- the primary planing surface 37 is longitudinally curved similar to the planing surface 29 of the forward pair. Starting with essentially zero angle of incidence at the trailing edge of the rearward ski and gradually increasing to approximately 25 to 30 at the tip, the area of the planing surface 37 is approximately the same as that of the primary planing surface 29 of the forward hydro-ski.
- the sides of surface 37 are formed parallel to each other from about one-third of the length of the rearward ski to its trailing edge.
- the forward part is pointed and joins the supporting strut in a tip somewhat short of the attachment point of the strut 40 with the boat hull 20.
- the strut 40, together with the form piece 42 and the rear strut 41 are connected at a right angle to the surface 37 as shown in FIG. 1, such that the latter keeps its proper form.
- the strut 40 is rigidly connected to the hull 20, and the rear strut 41 is rigidly connected to a protuberance of the hull projecting from the bottom surface 21 downwards and formed by the side surfaces 43 and 44, the bottom plate 45, and part of the stem 23, as can best be seen in FIG. 4.
- the parallel sides of the planing surface 37 on each side of strut 41 are flanked on both sides by the secondary surfaces 38 and 39, which are inclined upwardly and outwardly or inwardly at an angle of about 30.
- the surface 39 is a mirror image of the surface 38. Their sides are parallel from about 50 percent of the length of the rearward ski to the trailing edge of said ski. Their forward portion is pointed and joins the primary planing surface 37 smoothly at the point where the latter starts to decrease in width, as seen in FIG. 2.
- the roughly convex shaft of the bottom plane of the rearward hydro-ski; formed by the surfaces 37, 38 and 39 enables the boat to slide on the water surface when a turn is initiated, and causes the boat to pivot about a pivot within the submerged portion of the forward inner hydro-ski.
- the forward to rearward strut height ratio as seen in FIG. 1, must be thus chosen to give the hull 20 a slight angle of incidence referred to the flat portion of the hull bottom side 21 and the top speed water line.
- the operational attitude of the boat structure at various speeds is partly sketched in FIG. 1, by indication of the double-dot dashed lines on the boat hull and below the skis.
- the hydro-skis are completely submerged with a normal weight distribution, and the lower part of the hull is submerged.
- the hull bottom 21 emerges first due to its angle of attack to the flow of the water aided by the primary planing surfaces 29, 30 and 35 of the forward skis. Due to the larger surface of the forward ski pair, they will rise first, thus increasing the angle of attack of the rearward pair of hydro-skis, and thus enhancing their lifting capabilities.
- the planing surface 30 is still planing on the water and lifting the bow of the hull.
- the rearward pair of skis in the embodiment shown emerge from the water, exposing more and more surface area to the air than to the water.
- the slope on the outside surface 33 may be from 15 degrees to 45 degrees upward, in which case the inside surface 35 may be sloped downward from 35 to
- the rear ski planing surfaces must be sloped on the outside and inside surfaces 38 and 39. This slope must rise at least in height to a distance of one-fourth of the width of surface 37 as a minimum and not more than three-fourths of the width of surface 37 as a maximum. Dropping below the minimum above causes the rear skis to knife into the water in a turn, seriously affecting operation. To go above the maximum causes unnecessary drag above 45 degrees and cuts the final efficiency of the boat, turbulences building up at high speeds as well as at initial speeds.
- the overall blade area of the front hydroskis planing surface must be at least 1V2 times the planing surface area of the rear skis and cannot be over 3 times such area as a maximum with central weight distribution. A lesser front ratio will cause the front of the boat to drop back into the water sharply when the rear emerges with danger of a flip-over on rapid acceleration.
- the secondary surface 33 must extend up to or above the level of the lower surface of secondary planing surface 30, or the front of the boat when returning to the water will drop too quickly, causing water spray to be blown into the boat with a sudden slow down in speed.
- the spray rail 34 must extend at least 1/5 of the height of the secondary surface 33 in outward distance to prevent blowing of water into the boat.
- an elongated substantially rectangular hull in lateral section characterized by a concave bottom curvature, said curvature starting at zero at the bow and increasing to its maximum in proximal relation thereto and thence decreasing pro-gressively to a substantially flat stern, the longitudinal curvature starting as concave at the bow, changing thereafter progressively to convex and decreasing to zero at the stern; forward and rearward hydro-ski support members affixed to the bow and stem sections of said hull;
- ski members having a plurality of inner and outer planing surfaces planing during the forward movement of said hull through a body of water from zero speed through acceleration, to cause said hull to emerge from the water through alternating consecutive inner and outer planar action to support said boat structure on such planing surfaces at maximum propelled speeds at an optimum of minimum contact area on the surface of the water;
- said forward hydro-ski member inner and outer planing surfaces comprising secondary and primary surfaces consisting of:
- a second inner secondary surface (30) in rearward spaced relation to said first surface having an angle of incidence in relation to said body of water and ski member to provide continued lift to said member to cause the same to emerge from the surface of the water;
- a final inner secondary surface (35) in spaced relation to said primary surface, and laterally in relation thereto, having an angle of lateral incidence with respect to the water such as to cause the planing action of said ski member to be retarded in braking resistance when said boat structure is propelled into a turn.
- a boat structure of the character described comprising a hull adapted to be supported on a body of water by hydro-skis in maximum planing attitude, the improvement comprising, in combination, forward hydro-ski members, having inner and outer planing surfaces, consisting of:
- planar surfaces being so disposed that, on a turning motion of said structure, the inwardly disposed secondary surface (35) of the ski in the direction of said turn is caused to dip beneath the surface of the water to decrease the velocity of said member and cause the opposite ski member to accelerate on its secondary and primary surfaces to achieve a pivotal effect about such ski member on which said tum is being made;
- a rearward hydro-ski member having planing surfaces consisting of:
- a primary planing surface (37) having a relatively high angle of incidence at its forward tip decreasing to zero at its trailing edge to provide optimum minimum contact area at maximum planing attitudes;
- secondary planing surfaces (38) (39) laterally disposed on the side of said primary surface (37) in either direction of outward turning movement, said secondary planing surface (38) (39) having a relatively high lateral angle of incidence in relation to said water and area of primary surface (37) to offer braking resistance in lateral movement of said ski member on a turn and prevent swinging of said hull.
