Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device and method for conveying equipment and correlates through the break zone, more precisely, the device and its conveying method comprises a specially designed anchor and shuttle where the anchor carries a double cable whose free ends remain. on the beach, thus allowing the transport of equipment and other equipment between the beach and the region after surf zone of sandy beaches, exempting the use of boats for such.
  • the technical sector applies to any activity carried out in the immediate vicinity of the surf zone, which may include both recreational and professional fishing activities, as well as any coastal engineering work, such as measuring underwater beach profiles, marine geology. , determination of nutrients or contaminants near the breaking zone, physical oceanography, marine biology, sedimentary dynamics processes, among many others.
  • the coastal area is an extremely dynamic region where bathymetric variations occur continuously due to the action of waves, wind and currents.
  • the sandy beach ecosystem such as the coastal region
  • the sandy beach ecosystem is formed by waves that actively rework the sediment, that is, a place of high instability, ranging from the mesolittoral, or intertidal region, to approximately 20 m depth.
  • sandy beaches are affected by wind processes, and, as a consequence, undergo morphological changes and sediment exchange with nearby regions.
  • These sediments are composed almost entirely of sands of various sizes, such as coarse sands and fine sands.
  • the surf zone in turn, can be defined as the portion of the beach profile where the surf phenomenon occurs. As the breakage occurs, the energy contained in the waves is dissipated, and the height of the breakage is limited by the depth.
  • Remote techniques have the greatest advantage of their large spatial coverage, without the typical technical discontinuities of profiling ⁇ ' ⁇ situ'.
  • remote techniques do not provide a direct measurement of beach bathymetry, requiring interpretation.
  • the present invention innovates in the presentation of a new device and method of conveying equipment and correlates through the break zone.
  • the device is simple to manufacture, being configured by an anchor and a shuttle specially designed for the work of transposition of the breaking zone.
  • the method in turn, consists of anchoring the beach face over the surf zone at a distance of approximately 200 m.
  • the anchor carries a double cable whose ends remain on the beach. After the anchor digs into the sandy bottom, the ends of the cable are extended keeping an orthogonal line to the beach face.
  • the anchor is pulled from the beach by the cable, driving into the sea floor, thus configuring an anchor element so that various devices and equipment, including and especially measuring devices, can be carried by the cables between the beach and the bottom. allowing several measurements in the desired region.
  • the anchor employed must play two key roles. First, it should during the launch describe a ballistic trajectory (a parabolic arc) reaching a predetermined location. As a second fundamental condition, when reaching the ground the anchor must have a great ability to nail, allowing the cable to be well tensioned. As there are no anchors in the market with these characteristics, prototypes were developed seeking to unite in the project the needs that the operation requires.
  • the weight of the anchor is a function of the amount of cable that needs to be released.
  • the 400 m of 6 mm polyester cable weighs around 3 kg, which is the ideal anchor weight.
  • a lower weight makes it impossible for the entire cable to be carried, while a weight greater than this value reduces the firing range.
  • the anchor For the anchor to have aerodynamic stability and maintain its course, its center of gravity must be located at the rear, where its moving arms are. The four arms have a movement similar to that of an umbrella, remaining in the closed position during flight, being opened when the anchor touches the sandy bottom. Opening as the cable is extended keeps it in an ideal position for easy burial. It is also necessary that along its rod the anchor has surfaces that allow the shuttle's elastics to be attached.
  • the shuttle in turn, is the structure that allows the anchor to be fired from the beach over the surf zone. So that it can be easily carried on foot, thus facilitating access to any beach, specifying its length and weight becomes important. Fundamental also is that its operation is simple, low cost and allows easy maintenance. A spring-operated or compressed-air launcher does not meet these conditions, so the option of employing low-cost elastic straps as seen in the present model of shuttle is becoming more attractive.
  • the weight of the shuttle approximately 15 kg, makes it possible for one person to carry it. Its 3.0 m length meets the trade-off between transport convenience and firing range. This length is ideal so that the frame is not long enough to make it impossible to carry in a car, nor is it too short for its acceleration track to be insufficient. Another important factor, the maximum firing range, is reached when the launch angle is 45 degrees, which is maintained by two movable brackets that engage the main body of the shuttle. Both the mounts and the shuttle's main frame have tapered ends that make it possible to bury the assembly firmly in the sand ensuring a safe firing.
  • the main advantage of the present invention is the ability to carry an apparatus along the break zone even in high energy wave events. Knowing, therefore, that the surf zone is an extremely important area for any activity carried out in the coastal region, the applicants consider that any work in this region is extremely difficult due to the breaking of the waves.
  • the device and method proposed herein comprise an all-performed operation of the beach face, thus enabling its realization in any state of sea.
  • the investment to make the device is small compared to some of the techniques found in the scientific literature.
  • Another object of the invention is that since the device is fully installed on the beach face, the procedure and method of launching equipment can be employed in any sea condition.
  • the materials are lightweight and portable, allowing access to any beach to occur easily.
  • Another objective is the fact that the shuttle's assembly operation and the anchor launching can be performed by only two people, the material being easily transported in a car.
  • anchor was designed to be used in any sea condition, since The entire operation is performed on the beach with no need to cross the surf zone with any type of boat or person.

  • Figure 2 is another perspective view of the assembled device capable of permitting the release of the anchor
