Abstract

The rescue location arm has strong telescopic expanding tubes (4) with a cylindrical radar reflector (6). The reflector covers two thirds of the arm unit. There is also a stroboscopic lamp and orange flag, both placed on top of arm. Lamp has autonomy of 30 hours. GPS trigger is included with the radar reflector.

PERCHE DE REPERAGE"POUR L'HOMME A LA MER La présente invention concerne un dispositif de sécurité pour le sauvetage d'un homme à la mer, qui se présente sous forme de perche. The present invention relates to a safety device for the rescue of a man overboard, which is in the form of a pole.

Jusque là il existait une perche OR qui n'avait qu'un drapeau et une lampe à lumière fixe de faible intensité et fragile car en tubes d'aluminium. L'intérêt de cette nouvelle perche appelée BIB-SAFE est de posséder un réflecteur radar, un réflecteur pour les rayons lumineux et une lampe stroboscopique étanche, ces nouveautés sont uniques par rapport à la perche dite IOR
Cette perche afin de flotter est munie de flotteur plastique (1) qui est enfilé sur le tube inférieur de la perche BIB SAFE. Until then there was an OR pole which had only a flag and a fixed light lamp of low intensity and fragile because in aluminum tubes. The advantage of this new pole called BIB-SAFE is to have a radar reflector, a reflector for light rays and a waterproof strobe lamp, these new features are unique compared to the so-called IOR pole
This pole in order to float is provided with a plastic float (1) which is threaded on the lower tube of the BIB SAFE pole.

La perche est constituée de 2 tubes en inox (2) qui sont de diamètres proches afin de se déployer sans jeu, tout en permettant le coulissement. La position repliée est de 2mètres et déployée de 4mètres ce qui la fait dépasser de 3 mètres au dessus de l'eau en flottaison.  The pole consists of 2 stainless steel tubes (2) which are close in diameter in order to be deployed without play, while allowing sliding. The folded position is 2 meters and deployed 4 meters which makes it protrude 3 meters above the water in flotation.

Le tube dont le diamètre est le plus fort reçoit à son extrémité un contrepoids (3) solidaire du tube en plomb coulé autour du tube inox.  The tube with the largest diameter receives at its end a counterweight (3) integral with the lead tube poured around the stainless steel tube.

Le déploiement de la perche se fait grâce aux tubes par un système de presse-étoupe (4) qui permet un arrêt (tant en position basse que haute) du coulissement des tubes.  The deployment of the pole is made thanks to the tubes by a cable gland system (4) which allows a stop (both in low and high position) of the sliding of the tubes.

Le tube de plus faible section possède dans sa partie haute une platine soudée en inox (5) sous la forme d'un cercle, qui recevra de façon solidaire un réflecteur radar cylindrique (6) d'une hauteur de 60 cm, qui permet une détection jusqu'à 2. 5 milles nautiques.  The lower section tube has in its upper part a welded stainless steel plate (5) in the form of a circle, which will receive in solidarity a cylindrical radar reflector (6) with a height of 60 cm, which allows a detection up to 2.5 nautical miles.

Le réflecteur est vissé sur la platine et possédera 2 filoirs sur le même axe vertical. Les filoirs serviront d'une part de guide pour la garcette qui déclenche manuellement l'allumage de la lampe stroboscopique (7) et d'autre part de support à un drapeau (8) orange conforme aux normes internationales de format 30cm de hauteur par 40cm de largeur.  The reflector is screwed onto the plate and will have 2 threads on the same vertical axis. The fairleads will serve on the one hand as a guide for the boy who manually triggers the lighting of the strobe lamp (7) and on the other hand to support an orange flag (8) conforming to international standards in format 30cm high by 40cm of width.

Le réflecteur est recouvert sur tout le périmètre et sur le 2/3 de sa hauteur de bandes réfléchissantes homologuées SOLAS (9) qui permettent de repérer la perche BIB SAFE jusqu'à 1 mille nautique en fonction de la puissance du projecteur.  The reflector is covered over the entire perimeter and over 2/3 of its height with SOLAS approved reflective strips (9) which make it possible to identify the BIB SAFE pole up to 1 nautical mile depending on the power of the projector.

Une lampe étanche stroboscopique dont la portée est de 1 mille nautique fonctionnant avec une pile LR14 est intégrée dans le corps du réflecteur radar.  A waterproof strobe lamp with a range of 1 nautical mile operating with an LR14 battery is integrated in the body of the radar reflector.

La lampe s'allumera par rotation qui se fera manuellement grâce à une garcette qui courra dans des filoirs jusqu'à la portée de main de l'utilisateur.  The lamp will turn on by rotation which will be done manually thanks to a little boy who will run in threads until the hand reach of the user.

L'ensemble possède une dragonne de 20 mètres attachée à la perche à la hauteur du flotteur, qui sera reliée à une bouée fer à cheval homologuée, (bouée non fournie).  The set has a 20-meter wrist strap attached to the pole at the height of the float, which will be connected to an approved horseshoe buoy (buoy not supplied).

La perche après déploiement manuel est mise à la mer à l'aide d'un lanceur qui est constitué d'un tube et d'un tendeur qui est libéré manuellement par tirage de la retenue du tendeur.  The pole after manual deployment is put into the sea using a launcher which consists of a tube and a tensioner which is released manually by pulling the tensioner retainer.

Cette perche déclenche également un positionneur G. P. S. qui viendra augmenter l'efficacité du système de repérage de la percheThis pole also triggers a G. P. S. positioner which will increase the efficiency of the pole tracking system.
