Abstract

Floating, lightweight and semi-submersible nautical craft for 2 to 3 persons. The invention consists of a craft composed of a first element comprising 2 floats 1 and linkage arms 2 ensuring the buoyancy and stability of the craft, as well as the counterweight necessary for submersion of the second element of the craft by the floats 1 filling with a certain quantity of water 4, of a second element constituting the submersible part composed of a cockpit (pod) 5 accommodating the passengers, including a glazed part 6 and an access turret 7, the whole assembly being connected to the linkage arms 2 by articulated arms 9 and 10. The submersion of the cockpit (pod) 5 takes place by using the weight of the volume of water 4 contained in the floats 1 whose resistance to rising above the surface of the water is transmitted by a hydraulic cylinder (jack) 8 to the articulated arm 9.

Description

Engin nautique, flottant, léger et semi-submersible,
La présente invention concerne un engin semi-submersible de promenade et de surveillance pour 2 à 3 personnes, de fonctionnement simple, léger et utilisant sans les détourner de leur utilisation d'origine, certains éléments d'un petit catamaran à voiles.
Nautical craft, floating, light and semi-submersible,
The present invention relates to a semi-submersible walking and surveillance machine for 2 to 3 people, simple, light in operation and using certain elements of a small sailing catamaran without diverting them from their original use.

On connait dé là un certain nombre d'engins semi-submersibles avant la meme finalité (notamment, engin de Mr Jacques ROUGERIE, brevet NC 2 463 O)
Ils utilisent comme procédé d'immersion des svstemes de bJllast j eau ou ces ballonnets gonflables associés a un lest fixe. Ceci implique : d'une port, des engins relativement lourds et encombrants. limitant leur utilisation à la oroximité d'un port ou tout autre abri, et en tout état de cause. excluant leu@ utilisation comme engin de plage et rendant leur transport d'ffil:iie ; d'autre part une conception et une fabrication relativement comblexe et onéreuse.
We already know a certain number of semi-submersible machines before the same purpose (in particular, machine of Mr Jacques ROUGERIE, patent NC 2 463 O)
They use water immersion systems or these inflatable balloons associated with a fixed ballast as immersion process. This implies: from a port, relatively heavy and bulky vehicles. limiting their use to the oroximity of a port or any other shelter, and in any event. excluding leu @ use as a beach machine and making their transport immediately: iie; on the other hand, a relatively complex and expensive design and manufacture.

Par ailleurs, ces engins peuvent également présenter, soit l'inconvénient de faire appel à un mode de propulsion électrique, ce qui pose des problèmes de recharge des batteries et alourdit encore l'engin ; scit, présenter des lacunes du point de vue sécurité de par la faillibilité de leur svstème d'immersion. Furthermore, these devices may also have the disadvantage of using an electric propulsion mode, which poses problems of recharging the batteries and further weighs down the device; scit, to present safety gaps due to the fallibility of their immersion system.

La présente invention propose des solutions originales à ces inconvénients et présente d'autre part, l'avantage de s'adresser à un public beaucoup plus vaste de part son faible prix de revient et aussi de permettre une double utilisation d'un seul engin : - semi-submersible de promenade
- catamaran de sport à voile.
The present invention proposes original solutions to these drawbacks and, on the other hand, has the advantage of addressing a much larger audience on account of its low cost price and also of allowing a double use of a single machine: - semi-submersible promenade
- sailing sport catamaran.

Il se compose d'au moins 2 éléments qui peuvent être dissocies. It consists of at least 2 elements which can be dissociated.

- Un premier élément constitué d'au moins 2 flotteurs (1) et d'au moins un bras de liaison (2) assurant la stabilité de l'engin, ainsi que le contre-poids nécessaire à l'immersion du second élément par remplissage des flotteurs (1) d'une certaine quantité d'eau (4). - A first element consisting of at least 2 floats (1) and at least one connecting arm (2) ensuring the stability of the machine, as well as the counterweight necessary for the immersion of the second element by filling floats (1) of a certain amount of water (4).

Un second élément constituant la partie immmergeable de l'engin est comoosée d'au moins une nacelle (5) comportant une partie vitrée (6) et une tourelle d'accès (v), le tout étant relié au bras de liaison (2) par au moins un bras articulé (9 et 10)
L'immersion ce a nacelle 5 se fait en utilisant le poids du volume d'eau (4) conte nu dans le flottaur (1) dont la résistance à l'élévation au-dessus d la surface est transmise au moven d'un quelconque système mécahique, hydraulique ou autre à la nacelle (5), de telle facon oue l'ensemble de sa partie habitable se trouve sou s la surface de l'eau.
A second element constituting the immersible part of the machine is comoosée with at least one nacelle (5) comprising a glazed part (6) and an access turret (v), the whole being connected to the link arm (2) by at least one articulated arm (9 and 10)
The immersion of this nacelle 5 is done using the weight of the volume of water (4) contained in the floaur (1) whose resistance to elevation above the surface is transmitted to the moven of any mechanical, hydraulic or other system with the nacelle (5), in such a way that all of its habitable part is under the surface of the water.

Ce système d'immersion. outre 5 grande simplicité de mise er oeuvre et d'utilisation, présente l'avantage de supprimer la nécessité de lester le volume à immereer par un lest solide fixe ou amovible en combinaIson ou non avec un système de ballast à eau ou à air ; ce oui non seulement permet de concevoir un engin léger et de faible dèplacement, mais est aussi un facteur important de sécurité en ce que, quel que soit l'incident sui puisse se produire, la partie de l'engin contenant les passagers n est pas lestée, et est donc insubmersible.  This immersion system. in addition to its great simplicity of implementation and use, has the advantage of eliminating the need to ballast the volume to be immersed with a fixed or removable solid ballast, whether or not in combination with a water or air ballast system; this yes not only makes it possible to design a light and low displacement machine, but is also an important factor of safety in that, whatever the incident which may occur, the part of the machine containing the passengers is not weighted, and is therefore unsinkable.

I1 est donné à titre d'exemple non limitatif, un mode de réalisation de l'engin conformément aux dessins ci-ennexés.  I1 is given by way of nonlimiting example, an embodiment of the machine in accordance with the attached drawings.

L'engin est composé pour l'une de ses parties essentielles. The device is composed for one of its essential parts.

de 2 flotteurs (1) reliés entre eux par des bras de liaison (2), le tout constituant l'ensemble des éléments provenant d'un catamaran a voile débarrassé pour cet usage de tout son grément, accastillage et accessoires nécessoires à son utilisation en tant qu'embarcation à voiles.2 floats (1) connected together by link arms (2), the whole constituting all the elements coming from a sailing catamaran stripped for this use of all its rigging, fittings and accessories necessary for its use in as a sailboat.

Les 2 flotteurs (1) reliés entre eux nar les bras de liaison (24 constituent le support de l'engin et lui assurent la stabilitè nécessaire à une bonne naviguabilité,
Ces flotteurs 211 sont remplis d'une certaine quantite d'eau (4) par simple gravité a 1 'aide de bouchons étanches (3) , ceci afin de constituer le contre-poids nécessaire à l'immersion de ia partie immergeable de l'engin.
The 2 floats (1) linked together by the link arms (24 constitute the support of the craft and provide it with the stability necessary for good navigability,
These floats 211 are filled with a certain amount of water (4) by simple gravity with the aid of tight plugs (3), this in order to constitute the counterweight necessary for the immersion of the submersible part of the contraption.

Entre les flotteurs (1) se trouve la nacelle (5) constituée d'une coque rigide et étanche comportant une partie vitrée (6) ainsi qu'une tourelle d'accès (7), le tout, constituant l'essentiel de la partie immergeable de l'engin dans laquelle prennent place 2 à 3 personnes qui peuvent ainsi observer les fonds sous-marins au travers de cette partie vitrée (6).  Between the floats (1) is the nacelle (5) consisting of a rigid and watertight hull comprising a glazed part (6) as well as an access turret (7), the whole constituting the main part of the part. submersible of the machine in which take place 2 to 3 people who can thus observe the seabed through this glazed part (6).

La nacelle (5) est reliée au bras de liaison (2a) par un ou plusieurs bras de liaison articulés (10). Sur ce bras (10) est fixé un rail (12) supportant un chariot relié à l'une des extrémités du bras articulé (9), dont l'autre extrémité est fixée au bras de liaison (2b). The nacelle (5) is connected to the link arm (2a) by one or more articulated link arms (10). On this arm (10) is fixed a rail (12) supporting a carriage connected to one end of the articulated arm (9), the other end of which is fixed to the link arm (2b).

Le chariot supporté par le rail (12) est relié à un vérin hydraulique (8). fixé en son autre extrémité sur le bras de liaison (2a). L'ensemble de la commande de ce vérin hvdraulique () est renvové à l'intérieur de la nacelle (5) par une tubulure. The carriage supported by the rail (12) is connected to a hydraulic cylinder (8). fixed at its other end to the link arm (2a). The entire control of this hydraulic cylinder () is returned to the interior of the nacelle (5) by a tube.

d'où il peut être actionné au moven d'une pompe hvdraulique manuelle.from where it can be operated with the moven of a manual hydraulic pump.

En position repliée. le vérin (ea) assure une position des bras (9 et 10) telle que la nacelle (5) se trouve en position émergée (Fig 1). In the folded position. the jack (ea) ensures a position of the arms (9 and 10) such that the nacelle (5) is in the emerged position (Fig 1).

En position dépliée le vérin (8a) assure une position des bras (9 et 10) telle que la nacelle (5) se trouve en position immergée. sauf en ce sui concerne la tourelle d'accÈs (91 qui reste en permanence émergée d'au moins 50 cm au-dessus du niveau de l'eau et assure einsi l'aération de la nacelle (5) ainsi que l'évacuation des passagers en cas d'incident (Fig 2).  In the unfolded position the jack (8a) ensures a position of the arms (9 and 10) such that the nacelle (5) is in the submerged position. except in this case concerns the access turret (91 which remains permanently emerged at least 50 cm above the water level and thus ensures the ventilation of the nacelle (5) as well as the evacuation of passengers in the event of an incident (Fig 2).

La propulsion et la direction de l'engin sont assurés par un simple moteur hors bord fixé sur une chaise (11) solidaire du bras de liaison (2a) et dont les commandes sont renvoyées à l'intérieur de la nacelle (5) à l'aide d'une cablerie ou tout autre svstème de transmission mécanique. The propulsion and the direction of the machine are ensured by a simple outboard motor fixed on a chair (11) integral with the link arm (2a) and whose controls are returned inside the nacelle (5) to the using a wiring harness or any other mechanical transmission system.

L'utilisateur peut donc très facilement de l'intérieur de la nacelle (5) actionner la commande du vérin (8) pour effectue l'immersion et piloter l'engin à l'aide du moteur hors bord.  The user can therefore very easily from inside the nacelle (5) activate the actuator of the jack (8) to effect the immersion and control the machine using the outboard engine.

I1 bénéficie en outre, par un svstème de miroir ( 14) d'une vision au-dessus de la surface de l'eau. I1 also benefits, by a mirror system (14) from a vision above the surface of the water.

Pour effectuer le vidage des flotteurs, il lui suffit de mettre la nacelle (5) en position émergée et d'approcher d'une plage ou d'un plan incliné et après avoir ouvert les bouchons étanches (3), d'actionner le vérin (8), ce qui a pour effet la nacelle (5) prenant appui sur les sol, de soulever les flotteurs (1) au-dessus de l'eau, donc de les vider. To empty the floats, simply put the basket (5) in the emerged position and approach a range or an inclined plane and after opening the tight plugs (3), actuate the jack (8), which has the effect of the nacelle (5) resting on the ground, to raise the floats (1) above the water, therefore to empty them.

La nacelle peut avoir une forme hvdrodvnamique. The nacelle may have a hydraulic form.

L'engin peut etre constitué en substance. pour la nacelle (5) d'un composé de résine polvester et fibres. sur manuelle est fixe, avec un oint d'étanchéité adéquat. la partie vitrée (6). The device can be constituted in substance. for the nacelle (5) of a compound of polvester resin and fibers. on manual is fixed, with an adequate sealing anointing. the glazed part (6).

Les bras articulé (9 et 10) peuvent être réalisés en aluminium. The articulated arms (9 and 10) can be made of aluminum.

Les articulations peuvent âtre constituées par ces axes passés entre des loue s placées à ltextrémité des bras articulés (9 et 10) et des joues placées sur le bras de liaison (2a et 2b) et sur le chariot du rail t12).  The joints can be formed by these axes passed between leases placed at the end of the articulated arms (9 and 10) and cheeks placed on the link arm (2a and 2b) and on the carriage of the rail t12).

Un filet ou une bâche peut être tendu (13) entre les bras de liaison (2a et 2b) et les flotteurs (1) constituant ainsi une aire de repos. A net or tarpaulin can be stretched (13) between the link arms (2a and 2b) and the floats (1) thus constituting a rest area.

Tout accessoire peut être monte sur la nacelle (5) afin d'élargir le champs d'application de l'engin (bras articulé, svstème de mesure, svstème d'éclairage, appareils photographiques et cinématographiques etc...).  Any accessory can be mounted on the nacelle (5) in order to widen the field of application of the machine (articulated arm, measuring system, lighting system, photographic and cinematographic devices, etc.).

L'ensemble des éléments constituant la partie immergeable et son système d'immersion et de propulsion (nacelle (5), bras articulés (9 et 10), vérins (8) et chaise de moteur (11), peuvent être facilement démontés : les flotteurs ( 1) retrouvant alors, après remontage des différents éléments nécessaires, leur utilisation en tant que catamaran de sport a voile.  All the elements constituting the submersible part and its immersion and propulsion system (nacelle (5), articulated arms (9 and 10), jacks (8) and engine chair (11), can be easily removed: floats (1) then rediscovering, after reassembly of the various necessary elements, their use as a sailing sport catamaran.
