Abstract
The invention refers to the assembly for automatic supervision and control of the use of moorings for vessels which includes automatic floating buoys and a method associated with is and refers to completely automated buoys (1 ) with automatic mechanism for payment and fastening of small and large boats and other vessels (2) within the selected water area (7) based on a two-way mutual communication between the buoys (1 ) and operative control centre (3), between the boat managers (2) and operative control centre (3) and additionally by way of an internet link (40) between them and the potential users (5) without the need for assistance by personnel. The communication is based on broadband data and information transfer by using mobile GSM technology and/or SMS messaging. Each buoy (1 ) features and integrated central computer (18), a communication module (20) with antenna (36) and an attachment ear (10), an alphanumeric keyboard (44) for entering identification codes and control LED diodes (14, 15) for condition signalling. The buoy (1 ) features a special mechanism (45) for the payment of the mooring by credit card, money or jetons. Each buoy (1) is attached to the weight (8) via a voltage sensor (9) connected to a cable rope (13), while against using an unpaid mooring it is protected among others by blades (43) at the top (42).

System according to the claim 1 , characterised in that on the upper part of the buoy (1), anywhere on its upper half and on, or inside the housing (23) the controlling led diodes (14, 15) are placed, alphanumeric keyboard (44) and the payment mechanism (45) with the collecting vessel (46), this being so only if the buoy (1) is made so as to enable the payment with cards, money and/or tokens.
4. System according to the claim 1 , characterised in that the ring eye (10) is fixed or movable and could be linearly or in any other way moved through the opening (37) in the sidewall of the buoy (1) housing (23).
5. System according to the claim 1 , characterised in that on the point (42) at least one blade (43) of any type is mounted, with at least one Zn anode (50), and that the upper end (22) of the point (42) is preferably of the width, equal to the diameter of the cable rope (33).
6. System according to the claim 2, characterised in that the displays (11 , 12), mounted on the upper half of the buoy (1), may be of any type and placed anywhere, on or inside the hollow housing (23), what applies also to the solar panel (16).
7. System according to the claim 1 , characterised in that the cable rope (13) consists of an electric cable (9) in the middle, closely wrapped in a steel plaited rope (38) of suitable mechanical, mainly strength and tensile characteristics.
8. System according to the claim 1 , characterised in that broadband communication between the vessel's (2) operators or the system users (customers) (5) and the buoy (1) in the direction (b) on one hand, and with the operation- controlling centre (3) in the direction (a), on the other hand, is possible.
9. Method of automatic managing, controlling and handling of moorings for waterborne vessels, including the automated floating buoys (1); the operation- controlling centre (3) on shore (6) automatically, wireless and directly communicates with the buoys (1) within the sea area (7) in both directions (a, c), and further communicates via the communication cable (41), the server (4) and internet connection (40) with the customers (5) in such a manner that a human presence is not necessary, characterised in
- that booking of the buoy (1) in advance is possible on the individual sea area (7), and is carried out by the customer (5) via internet connection (40), the server (4), and the communication cable (41), in the operation- controlling centre (3);
