Abstract
Description
L'invention a pour objet un équipement pour le transport d'un bateau par un véhicule de tourisme. The invention relates to equipment for transporting a boat by a passenger vehicle.
Le développement de l'utilisation de petits bateaux sur le bord de la mer ou d'un lac pose de plus en plus fréquemment le problème de leur transport par leur possesseur. Celui-ci dispose d'un véhicule de tourisme. Jusqu'ici, sauf pour des bateaux en caoutchouc ou analogue, il n'est d'autre solution que le remorquage. The development of the use of small boats on the edge of the sea or a lake poses more and more frequently the problem of their transport by their owner. This one has a passenger vehicle. So far, except for rubber or similar boats, there is no other solution than towing.
Mais le remorquage du bateau exclut l'utilisation d'une remorque pour les bagages, introduisant ainsi une servitude quelquefois très gênante. But the towing of the boat excludes the use of a trailer for luggage, thus introducing a sometimes very troublesome easement.
L'invention a pour objet un équipement pour le transport d'un bateau1 notamment d'un bateau à coque rigide, ou "en dur", caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend un plateau fixable sur le toit du véhicule qui, simultanément, est propre à recevoir et immobiliser le bateau à transporter et à servir de support de bagages. The subject of the invention is an equipment for the transport of a boat1 in particular of a boat with a rigid hull, or "hard", characterized in that it comprises a plate which can be fixed on the roof of the vehicle which, simultaneously, is suitable for receiving and immobilizing the boat to be transported and used as a luggage carrier.
Selon une forme de réalisation, le plateau est propre à recevoir le bateau avec l'ouverture de sa coque tournée vers le bas, en position inverse de celle qu'il a au cours de la navigation, la coque enfermant alors les bagages et les protégeant à l'égard des intempéries. According to one embodiment, the tray is suitable for receiving the boat with the opening of its hull facing downwards, in the opposite position to that which it has during navigation, the hull then enclosing the luggage and protecting it with regard to bad weather.

- Figure 7 is a view similar to Figure 6 for another arrangement of the boat.
Le bateau 11 à transporter a une coque 12 du type catamaran, c'est-à-dire présentant deux renflements longitudinaux 13 et 14 destinés à lui procurer une bonne stabilité. The boat 11 to be transported has a hull 12 of the catamaran type, that is to say having two longitudinal bulges 13 and 14 intended to provide it with good stability.
De l'arrière 15 de la coque dépend une saillie transversale interne 16 à section rectangulaire et des flancs 17 et 18 des avancées 19 et 21 pour la fixation d'un banc, grâce à des trous 22 et 23 prévus dans lesdites avancées. Les flancs 17 et 18, ou parois latérales, délimitent, avec une paroi transversale antérieure 24 et une paroi transversale postérieure 25, l'espace habitable 26 du bateau dont l'ouverture est bordée par une nervure à parties longitudinales 27, 28 et parties transversales 29 et 31.From the rear 15 of the shell depends an internal transverse projection 16 of rectangular section and the sides 17 and 18 of the projections 19 and 21 for fixing a bench, by means of holes 22 and 23 provided in said projections. The sides 17 and 18, or side walls, delimit, with an anterior transverse wall 24 and a posterior transverse wall 25, the habitable space 26 of the boat whose opening is bordered by a rib with longitudinal parts 27, 28 and transverse parts 29 and 31.
Les raccordements desdites parties plus larges forment de petites plates-formes 32, 33, 34, 35, laissant le passage à des vis à oreilles 36, 37, 38, 39, qui traversent également des trous prévus aux angles d'un plateau rectangulaire 41 dont les dimensions sont sensiblement celles du toit 42 du véhicule de tourisme 43 qui doit transporter le bateau 11. The connections of said wider parts form small platforms 32, 33, 34, 35, allowing passage to wing screws 36, 37, 38, 39, which also pass through holes provided at the corners of a rectangular plate 41 whose dimensions are substantially those of the roof 42 of the passenger vehicle 43 which is to transport the boat 11.
Le plateau 41 présente des lumières transversales 44, 45, destinées à etre traversées, vers leurs extrémités, par des boulons, comme schématisé en 46, 47, pour sa fixation à des branches 48 et 49 d'équerres 51, 52 dont les autres branches 53 et 54 servent à la fixation par des boulons 55 et 56 aux gouttières 57 et 58, solidaires du toit 42 du véhicule.The plate 41 has transverse slots 44, 45, intended to be crossed, towards their ends, by bolts, as shown schematically at 46, 47, for its attachment to branches 48 and 49 of brackets 51, 52 including the other branches 53 and 54 are used for fixing by bolts 55 and 56 to the gutters 57 and 58, integral with the roof 42 of the vehicle.
Lorsqu'on désire transporter, par le véhicule 43, le bateau 11, on monte d'abord sur le toit du véhicule, par mise en place et serrage de boulons tels que 55, 56, 46, 47, le plateau 41. Il suffit ensuite d'amener le bateau, avec son fond tourné vers le haut, pour le faire reposer, par la nervure périphérique de son orifice, sur les bords du plateau 41. On met en place et serre les boulons 36, 37, 38, 39, et ainsi la fixation du bateau sur le toit est assurée. When it is desired to transport, by the vehicle 43, the boat 11, we first mount on the vehicle roof, by fitting and tightening bolts such as 55, 56, 46, 47, the plate 41. It suffices then bring the boat, with its bottom facing up, to make it rest, by the peripheral rib of its orifice, on the edges of the plate 41. The bolts 36, 37, 38, 39 are put in place and tightened , and thus the fixing of the boat on the roof is ensured.
Préalablement à la mise en place du bateau, on a pu, s'il est souhaité, disposer sur le plateau 41 des bagages à transporter. Lorsque le bateau est mis en place, les bagages sont protégés à l'égard des intempéries, notamment de la pluie. Prior to setting up the boat, it was possible, if desired, to have on the tray 41 baggage to be transported. When the boat is set up, the luggage is protected against bad weather, especially rain.
Dans la disposition montrée sur la figure 4, le nez 61 du bateau est tourné vers l'avant. Sa forme profilée est favorable à la pénétration dans l'air, de sorte que la résistance aérodynamique du véhicule portant le bateau est tenue à une valeur acceptable. In the arrangement shown in Figure 4, the nose 61 of the boat is turned forward. Its streamlined shape is favorable to penetration into the air, so that the aerodynamic resistance of the vehicle carrying the boat is kept at an acceptable value.
Dans la disposition montrée sur la figure 5, c'est l'arrière du bateau, 62, qui est tourné vers l'avant du véhicule, et il est alors avantageusement incliné. In the arrangement shown in FIG. 5, it is the rear of the boat, 62, which is turned towards the front of the vehicle, and it is then advantageously inclined.
Dans la variante montrée sur la figure 6, le bateau 11 est fixé par son fond 12, directement ou indirectement, sur le toit du véhicule. In the variant shown in Figure 6, the boat 11 is fixed by its bottom 12, directly or indirectly, on the roof of the vehicle.
Les bagages peuvent être disposés dans l'espace habitable 26 du bateau et ils sont alors protégés par un couvercle fixé sur l'orifice, par les mêmes moyens que décrit ci-dessus. The luggage can be placed in the living space 26 of the boat and they are then protected by a cover fixed on the orifice, by the same means as described above.
Dans la disposition selon la figure 6, c'est l'avant du bateau qui est tourné vers l'avant du véhicule. In the arrangement according to Figure 6, it is the front of the boat which is turned towards the front of the vehicle.
Dans la disposition montrée sur la figure 7, c'est l'arrière du bateau qui est tourné vers l'avant du véhicule. In the arrangement shown in Figure 7, it is the rear of the boat that is facing the front of the vehicle.
La coque du bateau est avantageusement réalisée en résine chargée de fibres de verre, alliant ainsi la résistance mécanique et la légèreté. The hull of the boat is advantageously made of resin loaded with glass fibers, thus combining mechanical strength and lightness.
Elle peut aussi être en tôle. It can also be made of sheet metal.
