Definitions
- the present invention relates to a hydrofoil device (also called hydrofoil) with empennags, intended for use on ess fast nautical vehicles. It also extends to nautical vehicles minuis of this device.
- hydrofoils is a technique increasingly used on fast boats, motor or sail, to improve their performance beyond a certain speed, by replacing the lift of hydrostatic origin by the hydrodynamic lift. a system of submerged wings.
- the first type has the advantage of being able to lead to configurations where the marine vehicle is naturally stable relative to the surface of the water. On the other hand, it has the disadvantage of having a stronger drag than the second type.
- the second type on the other hand does not have natural stability and must be piloted permanently. Boats using this type of hydrofoil are currently stabilized by an automatic pilot system acting on control surfaces by means of hydraulic cylinders. This leads to an expensive, cumbersome and complicated system.
- the present invention relates to a hydrofoil system similar to the second type, but arranged to have natural stability and bare automatic regulation of the depth of immersion without the intervention of a piloting system.
- the main bearing surface which is completely submerged in operation, at a certain height below the surface, is combined with an empennage or auxiliary bearing surface, which is raised relative to the bearing surface. main, so as to emerge when the system is raised and while the main surface is still completely submerged.
- the decrease in the lift exerted on the empennage then causes a decrease in the incidence of the main surface and a correlative decrease in its lift, so that the system tends to immerse itself more.
- the empemage is in front of the main bearing surface in the direction of advance of the boat.
- Figure 1 is a side view, in elevation, of a device according to the invention.
- Figure 2 is a horizontal projection view.
- Figure 3 shows an alternative embodiment.
- Figure 4 is a perspective view of an assembly comprising two empennages associated with the same main surface.
- Figure 5 shows an embodiment of the joint of the main bearing surface, fuselage and tail assembly.
- FIG. 6 is a perspective of a boat comprising three devices according to FIG. 1.
- FIG. 1 comprises a main bearing surface 3 which will be called hereinafter "main plane", it being understood that said surface may have a shape different from that of a plane and be for example a biplane, a front horizontal stabilizer 4 and a fuselage 5 connecting the two load-bearing elements.
- main plane which will be called hereinafter "main plane"
- front horizontal stabilizer 4 and a fuselage 5 connecting the two load-bearing elements.
- the empennage is located at a certain height 6 above the main plane 3.
- the assembly is articulated by the hinge pin 2 on a profiled strut 1 which supports a nautical craft, boat for example.
- the operation is similar to that of the basic invention, the condition of stability being obtained on the other hand on the condition that the articulation axis 2 is in front of the hydrodynamic focus of the mobile assembly devoid of its tail.
- the angular setting of the latter relative to the fuselage 5 is such that the proper lift of the empennage is directed downwards, while it is directed towards
- the articulation axis of the mobile assembly can be carried by several struts, the mobile assembly can have one or more main bearing planes, and one or more tail units carried by one or more fuselages.
- FIG. 4 shows an example in which the main plane 3 is linked to two fuselages 5 each comprising a tailplane 4 and articulated respectively in 2 on struts 1 supporting the boat.
- the articulation axes 2 are aligned.
- FIG. 5 shows an exemplary embodiment of such a connection between the strut 1 and the fuselage 5 of the mobile assembly.
- the articulation axis 2 is equipped with travel stops 10 and a hydraulic shock absorber 11.
- the invention in its different forms is applicable to all fast sea vehicles, sailing or motor (including speedboats, multihull sailboats, sailboards).
- FIG. 6 shows an example of application on a speedboat using three carrier assemblies a, b, c, produced according to FIG. 1.
- These assemblies can be lifted or folded for maneuvering at low speeds. They can also play the role of rudder or rudder, and be integrated with the propellant device: for example propeller carried by the rear assembly c which also acts as rudder, its strut 1 then being movable in rotation around a vertical axis.
