Definitions
- the system object of this invention will reduce such situation due to the asymmetric drag force induced by the rudder operating only on the veering side.
- a steering system have been studied and realized maintaining the rudders retracted on board during the course but capable to be inserted into the water each time when necessary for steering.
- the immersed rudder was only that one inside the veering.
- the system was based on the fact that any watercraft having a completely symmetrical keel and with balanced propulsive forces tends to keep a constant direction of the course if no extraneous forces such as wind, wave motion, current etc. intervene to change the direction of navigation.
- a steering apparatus consisting of a pair of retractable rudders installed abaft the boat outside the transom one on right side and one on left side immersed only when necessary to veering.
- the equipment object of the invention has the particularity to be used also as stabilisation device in condition of rough sea but also in certain situations as well at high speed when the boat takes a swinging tendency creating serious worries on board.
- the today's antirolling stabilisation equipments consist generally of a pair of fins similar to rudders outstanding on both sides of the boat under the water level these fins rotating on its axis automatically monoevered from inside board capable to create a couple opposed to that couple created by the rough sea .
- the system object of the invention is constructively the same in case to be used for steering or for stabilisation of the craft during navigation and it includes in any case at least two units each contained in a watertight housing to be installed one on starboard side and the other on the port side and particularly in case of steering gear the units will be placed with vertical axis abaft the ship while in case of stabilisation gear will be placed near the middle ship prevalently with horizontal axis
- Each unit contains inside a blade (or a fin) provided with a particular a moving device capable to retract or to project the fin outboard partially or totally when necessary for steering or for stabilising passing trough the bottom of the housing where a suitable slot is provided.
- Such device consists essentially of a plate 2 joined together with the fin 1 and tilting on a shaft 4 pivoting inside the housing 3 but holding out at least one end 5 passing through a hub 44 provided with a sealing 49 to maintain watertight the housing and at same time to receive the remote control by any kind of electric or hydraulic actuator and at same time to transmit remote information of the fin position.
- Fig. 1 is an exploded perspective representation of the unit to be installed on the portboard side (the starboard side unit is symmetrical) .
- Fig.2 shows a vertical section in the middle plane of the same unit.
- the blade 1 is characterized to have a curvilinear profile in order to permit an easy and complete outlet from the watertight housing 3 obtaining a considerable volume reduction .
- the incidence angle of the blade will be constant or variable along the blade axis according to the boat features.
- the blade 1 joined together to the plate 2 is tilting around the axis 4.
- the housing 3/33 having prevalently a rectangular section, will be structured in one, two or more parts to permit the assembly of the internal components and to facilitate also the inspections when necessary: the inferior section 3 could be less high than the cover 33 but sufficient to locate two side bearing 31/32 proportioned to support all forces of lifting and drag generated from the water action on the blade.
- the same housing 3 will be provided on the base plate with a slot or an aperture 34 having appropriated dimensions to permit the passage of the blade.
- closure flanges 35 of the housing sections 3/33 will be connected by a series of bolts non indicated in the figures after interposal of an adequate tested sealing 49 capable to grant a perfect watertight.
- the inferior section of the housing 3 will be provided with appendages like 36 to be established with the Shipyard in order to connect the housings to the craft .
- the components 1-2- 21 -22-4 can be realised in only one piece
- Fig.3 shows in details a section made in a horizontal plane corresponding to the control shaft axis 4 of the plate 2 where we can see the following components : the shaft 4 joined to the plate appendages 21/22 by spines 41/42 or similar connections while in case of standard production the components 1-2- 21 -22-4 can be realised in one piece.
- the terminal hub 44 of the shaft 4 going outside of the housing 3 will be provided with a sealing 49 widely used and tested to maintain total watertight.
- a mechanical or electrical device transmitting signal of the blade position may be installed, being this signal very important as feed back for the electronic controls .
- Fig.4 shows an external view of one steering unit in a compact version where the control shaft 4 sorting out of the housing is operated by the lever 5 from one hydraulic actuator 55 requiring a limited power because the forces to win are manly reduced to the friction forces acting on the bearing 46/47.
- Fig.5 shows in the same scale of the unit fig.4 an assembled view of a known steering or stabilising unit described in the doc. characterised by a different movable system of the fin essentially requiring major encumbrance on board specially in highness and over all presenting difficulties to obtain outside of the unit the signal giving constantly the fin position, this particular so important specially for the automatic electronic controls .
- the first more evidence is less fuel consumption or more speed because the rudder blades or fins are retracted when they are not used.
- the rudder exposed only inside the veering could be provided with an hydrodynamic profile with a better lifting feature than the conventional obliged to have symmetric profile to work with both faces.

Abstract
L'invention concerne un système comprenant au moins deux unités dont chacune est contenue dans un logement étanche (3, 33), prévues pour être installées l'une du côté tribord et l'autre du côté bâbord et, en particulier dans le cas d'un appareil à gouverner, les unités seraient placées avec leur axe vertical dans la moitié arrière du navire tandis que, dans le cas d'un appareil de stabilisation, elles seraient placées près du milieu du navire. Chaque unité contient intérieurement une ailette ou une dérive (1) munie d'un dispositif mobile particulier capable de rétracter ou de faire dépasser partiellement ou totalement la dérive hors de la coque lorsque c'est nécessaire pour la direction ou la stabilisation, en passant à travers le fond du logement où une fente appropriée est pratiquée. Dans les deux cas, les ailettes ou les dérives sont normalement maintenues à l'intérieur de leur logement pour réduire la résistance en cours de navigation, tandis qu'elles sont déployées, au choix, du côté droit ou gauche uniquement lorsqu'elles sont activées pour la direction ou la stabilisation, la progressivité de l'action étant obtenue uniquement par le degré d'exposition ou par l'angle d'incidence qui peut varier le long de l'axe de la dérive, et non par rotation de l'axe lui-même comme dans les systèmes connus. Le dispositif de mouvement du système est essentiellement constitué d'une plaque (2) jointe à l'ailette ou à la dérive, basculant sur un arbre (4) pivotant à l'intérieur du logement, mais maintenant au moins une extrémité passant à travers un moyeu muni d'un joint pour maintenir l'étanchéité du logement tout en soutenant un type quelconque d'actionneurs électriques ou hydrauliques fonctionnant dans un lieu étanche et protégé, et capable en même temps de soutenir tous les systèmes de surveillance à distance essentiels pour enregistrer constamment la position exacte de l'ailette et servant à la commande automatique de la route (pilote automatique) ou au système de stabilisation automatique.
