A ~ A VOILE A VOILURE ENTRAINEE EN ROTATION PAR LE GOUVERNAIL
invention concerne un bateau à voile dont la voilure principale est fixée à une armature centrale que l'on fait tourner avec au moins un gouvernail plongeant dans l'eau, dont l'axe ou le moyeu est directement fixé à cette armature.A ~ A SAIL WITH A VEIL DRIVED IN ROTATION BY THE GOUVERNAIL
The invention relates to a sailing boat, the main sail of which is fixed to a central frame which is made to rotate with at least one rudder immersed in water, the axis or the hub of which is directly fixed to this frame.
Cette armature supporte la voilure du bateau et repose sur des éléments qui assurent la flottabilité.This frame supports the wing of the boat and rests on elements which ensure buoyancy.
ces éléments de flottabilité sont principalement de deux types différents - des coques fixées chacune en un point de l'armature centrale par une articulation autour de laquelle chaque coque peut tourner en restant dans un plan sensiblement horizontal. these buoyancy elements are mainly of two different types - hulls each fixed at a point of the central frame by an articulation around which each hull can rotate while remaining in a substantially horizontal plane.
- un ou plusieurs coussins d'air maintenus sous l'armature par un système de jupe souple et gonflés par une ou plusieurs soufflantes.- one or more air cushions held under the frame by a flexible skirt system and inflated by one or more blowers.
que le gouvernail permette de faire tourner l'armature centrale, celle
équipée d'au moins 1 dérive ou au moins 2 folles, dérives obliques piongeant dans l'eau. Ainsi 1' armature tourne dans le plan horizontal par rapport à la direction du déplacement du bateau, direction donnée par une ou plusieurs dérives, ou fous, plongeant dans l'eau. Les dérives ou les folles sont montées sous 1' armature centrale de façon qu'ils tournent pour que les plans de dérives puissent se mettre parallèles à l'axe longitudinal des coques lorsqu'il y en a. Ils sont donc solidaires d'axes tournant dans des moyeux sensiblement verticaux fixés à l'armature.Dans le cas de coques, e fonctionnement normal rectiligne, chaque dérive est maintenue parallèle
zxe longitudinal des coques par un système de bielles; en virage il est
-ressant de pouvoir modifier la longueur ou le point d'accrochage d'une ou plusieurs bielles de façon à rendre les dérives non parallèles aux coques pour faciliter la rotation du bateau.that the rudder allows to rotate the central frame, that
fitted with at least 1 drift or at least 2 insane, oblique drifts pioneering in the water. Thus the frame turns in the horizontal plane with respect to the direction of movement of the boat, direction given by one or more daggerboards, or insane, plunging into the water. The daggerboards or the fools are mounted under the central frame so that they rotate so that the daggerboards can be put parallel to the longitudinal axis of the hulls when there are any. They are therefore integral with axes rotating in substantially vertical hubs fixed to the frame. In the case of hulls, in normal rectilinear operation, each fin is kept parallel
longitudinal zx of the hulls by a system of rods; cornering he is
- stressing of being able to modify the length or the point of attachment of one or more connecting rods so as to make the daggerboards not parallel to the hulls to facilitate the rotation of the boat.
Pour que les coques restent parallèles entre elles, elles seront généralement reliées par un ou deux bras supplémentaires en plus de l'armature.To keep the shells parallel to each other, they will generally be connected by one or two additional arms in addition to the frame.
La figure 1 montre un bateau comportant une armature rectangulaire (1) équipée de 2 dérives (2) et (3), 2 mâts (4) et (5), 2 voiles (6) et (7) et un gouvernail (8) et reposant sur 2 coques (9) et (10) reliées entre elles par l'armature (1) et par deux bras supplémentaires (11) et (12). L'angle que fait l'axe longitudinal des coques avec la direction des bômes ou avec la perpendiculaire aux bras de liaison définit la géométrie du bateau.Figure 1 shows a boat with a rectangular frame (1) equipped with 2 fins (2) and (3), 2 masts (4) and (5), 2 sails (6) and (7) and a rudder (8) and resting on 2 shells (9) and (10) connected together by the frame (1) and by two additional arms (11) and (12). The angle that the longitudinal axis of the hulls makes with the direction of the booms or with the perpendicular to the link arms defines the geometry of the boat.
La modification de cette géométrie peut se faire par la manoeuvre du gouvernail.The modification of this geometry can be done by maneuvering the rudder.
Une solution technique permettant ces manoeuvres est montrée à la figure 2; elle consiste à relier un point de chaque coque suffisamment éloigné du centre des coques (par exemple le point d'articulation au bras avant) par un cordage (13), ou une sangle ou courroie, en série avec un élément (14) souple tel qu'un amortisseur d'amarre ou un ressort, à un enrouleur (15) double fixé à l'armature et équipé de manivelles (16) ou de volants pour le faire tourner et de deux taquets (17) à ressorts permettant de bloquer sa rotation dans un sens, dans l'autre sens ou dans les deux sens. L'enrouleur est tel que si on le tourne dans un sens, on enroule une des cordes et on déroule l'autre corde et inversementlorsqu'on le tourne dans l'autre sens.A technical solution allowing these maneuvers is shown in Figure 2; it consists in connecting a point of each hull sufficiently distant from the center of the hulls (for example the point of articulation on the front arm) by a rope (13), or a strap or strap, in series with a flexible element (14) such as a mooring damper or a spring, to a double winder (15) fixed to the frame and equipped with cranks (16) or flywheels to rotate it and two cleats (17) with springs making it possible to block its rotation in one direction, in the other direction or in both directions. The reel is such that if you turn it in one direction, you wind one of the strings and unwind the other rope and vice versa when you turn it in the other direction.
Les taquets permettent donc d'autoriser la rotation dans aucun sens, dans un seul sens ou dans les deux sens.The stops therefore allow rotation in any direction, in one direction or in both directions.
Le changement de bord se fera donc généralement en autorisant la rotation de l'enrouleur dans un sens (celui qui permet de remettre le bateau symétrique) et en manoeuvrant le gouvernail (8) jusqu'à ce que les coques aient changé de bord et que la géométrie du bateau soit celle désirée; cette manoeuvre pourra nécessiter de basculer le gouvernail alternativement des deux côtés.The change of edge will therefore generally be done by authorizing the rotation of the furler in one direction (that which makes it possible to put the boat symmetrical) and by maneuvering the rudder (8) until the hulls have changed edge and the geometry of the boat is that desired; this maneuver may require tilting the rudder alternately on both sides.
L'armature centrale peut être équipée de plusieurs types de voilure parmi lesquelles on peut citer - une voile classique fixée entre un mât sensiblement vertical et une bôme sensiblement horizontale fixée à l'armature ou intégrée dans l'armature centrale; cette voile peut être complétée par une voile sensiblement triangulaire de type foc placée devant le mât.The central frame can be equipped with several types of wing, among which we can cite - a conventional sail fixed between a substantially vertical mast and a substantially horizontal boom fixed to the frame or integrated in the central frame; this sail can be completed by a substantially triangular sail of the jib type placed in front of the mast.
.- une voilure faite de 2 voiles identiques sensiblement parallèles, chacune étant constituée comme la voile décrite au paragraphe précédent et pouvant être complétée par 2 voiles de type foc. .- a wing made of 2 identical substantially parallel sails, each one constituted like the sail described in the previous paragraph and can be completed by 2 jib type sails.
- une voilure faite de 2 voiles identiques sensiblement triangulaires montées en oblique symétriquement par rapport à un plan passant par le mât unique sensiblement vertical; 1 'une des pointes de chaque voile est reliée au sommet du mât et la base opposée à cette pointe est éloignée du mât et fixée à l'ar- mature tournante près de son pourtour soit directement, soit par l'interné diaire d'une bôme; cet ensemble de 2 voiles a sensiblement la forme d'une pyramide. Chacune des voiles peut être fixée à sa base à une bôme sensiblement horizontale articulée, capable de tourner sur elle-même pour faire la fonction d'enrouleur de voile.- a wing made of 2 identical substantially triangular sails mounted obliquely symmetrically with respect to a plane passing through the single substantially vertical mast; One of the points of each sail is connected to the top of the mast and the base opposite to this point is distant from the mast and fixed to the rotating armature near its periphery either directly or by the internal diary of a boom; this set of 2 sails has substantially the shape of a pyramid. Each of the sails can be fixed at its base to a substantially horizontal articulated boom, capable of turning on itself to act as a sail furler.
La figure 3 montre un bateau comportant une armature circulaire équipée de deux dérives (18 et 19), d'un mât central (20), d'une voilure pyramidale (21), de deux gouvernails (22 et 23) et d'un coussin d'air maintenu par une jupe périphérique (24) et cloisonné par 2 cloisons souples perpendiculaires (25 et 26).Figure 3 shows a boat with a circular frame equipped with two fins (18 and 19), a central mast (20), a pyramid blade (21), two rudders (22 and 23) and a air cushion maintained by a peripheral skirt (24) and partitioned by 2 perpendicular flexible partitions (25 and 26).

cooue
Selon une variante chaqueN < est double c'est-à-dire formée de 2 coques accolées de façon à ménager un espace plein d'air entre les 2 parties dans l'eau; chaque coque a donc sensiblement une section en forme de W comme montré à la figure 5. La figure 6 montre une coupe longitudinale d'une coque telle qu'elle peut être réalisée. L'articulation de 1' armature centrale à la coque se fait autour d'un trou (27) vertical prévu dans la coque audessus de l'espace (28) d'air de façon à-pouvoir faire rentrer de l'air sous pression dans cet espace. Les bômes ou les enrouleurs de voiles sont placés à 1' exté- rieur de cette articulation.La voilure est pyramidale et est complétée sous chaque voile par une ou plusieurs pièces (29) de toile tendue en oblique au-dessus du trou de chaque coque de façon à prélever une partie de l'air qui circule sous la voilure pyramidale et à l'envoyer sous pression vers le trou. Cet air sous pression tend à sortir les coques de l'eau et à améliorer leur glisse.neck
According to a variant each N <is double, that is to say formed of 2 hulls placed side by side so as to provide a space full of air between the 2 parts in the water; each shell therefore has substantially a W-shaped section as shown in FIG. 5. FIG. 6 shows a longitudinal section of a shell as it can be produced. The articulation of the central frame to the hull is done around a vertical hole (27) provided in the hull above the air space (28) so as to be able to bring in air under pressure in this space. The booms or furlers of sails are placed outside this articulation. The sails are pyramidal and are completed under each sail by one or more pieces (29) of canvas stretched obliquely above the hole of each hull. so as to take a part of the air which circulates under the pyramidal canopy and to send it under pressure towards the hole. This pressurized air tends to take the hulls out of the water and improve their sliding.
Selon une variante le gouvernail est équipé d'au moins un plan sensiblement horizontal donc approximativement perpendiculaire à son axe de rotation, il est monté sur un moyeu articulé qui lui permet de basculer légèrement vers l'avant ou l'arrière en restant dans le plan vertical de symétrie longitudinale de 1' armature tournante. Ce basculement permet de modifier la portance sous marine du ou des plans sensiblement horizontaux du gouvernail qui peut donc servir de stabilisateur de profondeur
Selon une variante, le gouvernail, placé à l'avant ou à l'arrière de l'armature portant la voilure, est fixé solidairement à une coque. Celle-ci tourne donc lorsqu'on tourne le gouvernail; elle supporté une partie du poids de l'armature portant la voilure et participe donc à la flottabilité de 1 'ensem- ble du bateau.According to a variant, the rudder is equipped with at least one substantially horizontal plane, therefore approximately perpendicular to its axis of rotation, it is mounted on an articulated hub which allows it to tilt slightly forward or backward while remaining in the plane. vertical of longitudinal symmetry of the rotating armature. This tilting makes it possible to modify the underwater lift of the substantially horizontal plane or planes of the rudder which can therefore serve as a depth stabilizer
According to a variant, the rudder, placed at the front or at the rear of the frame carrying the wing, is fixedly attached to a hull. This therefore turns when the rudder is turned; it supports part of the weight of the frame carrying the wing and therefore contributes to the buoyancy of the entire boat.
La figure 7 montre un bateau ayant deux coques ( 30, 3 1) latérales, une troisième coque (32) solidaire du gouvernail (33) à l'avant de 1' armature (34) centrale, un deuxième bras ( 35) de liaison des deux coques latérales, 2 dérives fofls (36) , un mât (37),une grand-voile (38) et une voile foc (39). FIG. 7 shows a boat having two lateral hulls (30, 31), a third hull (32) integral with the rudder (33) at the front of the central frame (34), a second link arm (35) two side hulls, 2 dinghy fins (36), a mast (37), a mainsail (38) and a jib sail (39).
