Definitions
- the present invention relates to a stabilization device for a sailing boat and to a sailboat equipped with such a device.
- Such boats nevertheless have drawbacks due to the list they suffer, such as, for example, in heavy weather.
- these boats are often equipped with systems intended to stabilize them in the water such as, for example, ballast located at the lower end of the keel or devices such as those described in French patent application No. 2,727 668.
- ballast located at the lower end of the keel or devices such as those described in French patent application No. 2,727 668.
- most of the known devices are not entirely satisfactory and have drawbacks, particularly in their implementation and in their effectiveness.
- the present invention proposes to solve the aforementioned problems using simple, reliable and effective means, intended to allow the stabilization of the boat in the water as well as its positioning in the hydraulic flow caused by its movement.
- the stabilization device for boats fitted with a keel or a fin comprises stabilization means constituted by at least one movable stabilization member having at least one bearing surface , the mobile stabilization member being disposed on the keel so as to be movable relative to the latter between an inactive position, where its bearing surface is parallel to the direction of the hydraulic flow due to the movement of the boat, and at least one active position where its bearing surface is arranged in the direction of said hydraulic flow.
- the mobile stabilization member is constituted by at least one pivoting flap disposed (s) in the central part of the keel and contained (s) in the longitudinal plane when (s) is (are) in the inactive position, the movable flap (s) being articulated around a pivot axis contained in the longitudinal plane of symmetry of the boat.
- the pivoting flap (s) has (have) a substantially rectangular shape and is (are) articulated (s) around a substantially vertical perpendicular bisector, the flap (s) swivel (s) being disposed inside an orifice located in the central part of the keel, so as to be able, in the active position, to present on either side of the keel, one of its (their) lateral face (s) in the direction of the hydraulic flow.
- the stabilization device for sailing boats, it comprises two pivoting flaps articulated around pivot axes contained in the longitudinal plane of symmetry of the boat, said flaps being arranged in an orifice or a window arranged in the central part of the keel.
- one of the flaps is disposed at the front of the window while the other flap is disposed at the rear of said window, the front flap being articulated along the front edge. of the window and the rear flap being articulated along the rear edge of said window.
- the pivoting of the two flaps between their inactive position and their active positions is effected by a respective rotation around their pivot axes in the same direction.
- the two pivoting flaps are of different length.
- the stabilization device for sailboats comprises several mobile stabilization members such as pivoting flaps arranged when they are in the inactive position in planes parallel to the direction of the hydraulic flow and intersecting with the longitudinal plane.
- the pivoting flaps are in the inactive position, arranged in planes orthogonal to the longitudinal plane and are articulated around transverse axes arranged along their leading edge.
- the transition from an active position to an inactive position and vice versa of the mobile stabilization member (s) is obtained by means control.
- control means comprise a computerized control unit intended to take into account the physical parameters linked to the environment of the boat and to its movement.
- the invention has significant advantages for the navigation of the boat and its devices are intended to stabilize the boat by reducing the heel and thus improve the navigation characteristics of the boat and in particular its speed.
- a movable member constituted by a lower keel extension also called an active keel
- this makes it possible to considerably reduce the dimensions of the keel and to eliminate or significantly reduce the ballast in relation to the dimensions and ballast of the keel of current sailboats, so the boat has less draft and allows faster navigation with less heel.
- the movable members are constituted by pivoting flaps arranged in planes orthogonal to the keel and which can be called keel foils for example, these advantageously make it possible to level the boat in its axis even when this one has heel and thus make it possible to increase its speed by presenting a smaller submerged volume.
- the sailboat advantageously has floats to balance the boat when it is stopped or at low speed.

- the stabilization device bearing the general reference (1) is intended to be placed on sailboats (2) such as pleasure boats or competition sailboats, but it could also be used on smaller sailboats such than dinghies, for example.
- This device comprises stabilization means constituted by at least one mobile stabilization member (4) disposed on the keel of the sailboat (2). Note that in the case of dinghies, such a device can equip the drift thereof in order to improve their stability.
- the movable stabilization member (s) (OM) are each provided with at least one bearing surface (SP) intended to be positioned in the direction (F) of the hydraulic flow caused by the movement of the boat in the water in order to use this flow to create a support, the result of which makes it possible to prevent or reduce the heeling of the boat.
- the mobile stabilization member (OM) is intended to equip the keel (3) of the boat (2) so as to be movable relative to the latter between an inactive position (A) where its bearing surface (SP) is retracted with respect to the hydraulic flow (F) generated by the movement of the boat thus leaving the boat (2) to tilt under the pressure exerted by the wind in its sails (6a, 6b), and at least one position active (Bl, B2) where its bearing surface (SP) is arranged in the direction (F) of the hydraulic flow so as to undergo the support of water.
- A inactive position
- SP bearing surface
- F hydraulic flow
- the mobile stabilization member (s) (OM) is (are) controlled by control means (MC) intended to allow its passage (s) from an inactive position to an active position and vice versa.
- said passage is advantageously effected by pivoting of the bearing surface (s) (SP) around a pivot axis (8, 8a, 8b, 8c) driven by the control means (MC).
- the pivot axis (s) (8, 8a, 8b, 8c) may advantageously be either located in the longitudinal plane of general symmetry (P) of the boat (2) corresponding to the plane of the keel (3) , or in planes orthogonal to said plane (P) and substantially horizontal so that in their respective inactive positions, the bearing surface (s) (SP) is (are) located in a plane parallel to the direction of the hydraulic flow and that after pivoting, said surface (s) is positioned so that they are no longer located in a plane parallel to the direction of said flow and therefore cut said flow.
- the stabilization means are constituted by a single movable member (OM). This one, when it is in the inactive position (A), forms the lower extension (4) of the keel (3), as illustrated in FIG. 3a, and can pivot around a substantially vertical axis (XX 1 ) contained in the longitudinal plane (P) of general symmetry of the boat (2) as shown in Figures 1 and 2.
- the lower keel extension (4) is thus pivotally movable relative to the longitudinal plane (P) and therefore to the keel (3 ) so as to be able to form a non-zero angle with said plane (P) when it is in one of its active positions (B1, B2) as shown in FIGS. 3b and 3c.
- the device (1) furthermore comprises means for locking in position the movable member so as to be able to rigidly maintain said member in the desired active or inactive position.
- the movable member (OM) has in a transverse plane a profile of tapered shape identical to that of the keel (3) so as to be able to form its extension.
- its two side walls (5a, 5b) extend the side walls (3a, 3b) of the keel (3) when it is in the inactive position.
- Said side walls (5a, 5b) connect the leading edge (7a) to the trailing edge (7b) of the mobile stabilization member (OM). They have a very slightly convex profile which can be considered as parallel to the plane (P) and therefore also parallel to the direction (F) of the hydraulic flow when they are in the inactive position.
- the flow of water takes place parallel along said walls in a manner known per se, as along the keel, when the movable member is in the inactive position.
- the movable member (OM) has one of its side walls (5a, 5b) in the direction of the hydraulic flow with an incidence allowing a support to be obtained on said lateral face (5a, 5b) which thus constitutes its bearing surface (SP).
- the support due to the flow around the mobile stabilization member (OM) generated by the movement of the boat, causes the appearance of a return movement tending to reduce the effect of the boat heeling (2 ), that is to say to bring the keel (3) or the plane (P) which is linked to it in a vertical plane of the Galilean frame of reference linked to the body of water.
- control means are configured to control the control means. According to this first embodiment, the control means
- MC can be constituted by a mechanical device of a type known per se, the movable member (OM) being carried by a pivot axis (8) substantially vertical located in the plane (P) and whose pivoting can be obtained and managed by a motorized system with manual control.
- the control means (MC) could be constituted by a computerized control unit making it possible to take into account the different physical parameters linked to the environment and to the movement of the boat such as the angle of heel of the boat.
- the mobile stabilization member (OM) may comprise on its lateral faces (5a, 5b) intended to constitute the bearing surface (SP) of the pressure sensors intended to measure the support obtained by means of the fluid.
- the control unit can also take this value of the support into account to modify or not the inclination ⁇ of the bearing surface of the movable member.
- the stabilization means are constituted by a movable member (OM) such as a pivoting flap (9) disposed in the central part of the keel (3).
- the pivoting flap (9) is pivotally articulated about an axis (8) arranged substantially along the vertical axis (XX 1 ) of the plane (P). It is advantageously rectangular in its longitudinal section along the plane (P) and is articulated around a perpendicular bisector of said rectangle.
- the flap (9) is thus disposed in an orifice (11) of identical rectangular shape extending between the side walls (3a, 3b) of the keel (3) and located in the central part thereof.
- the movable flap (9) has, during its pivoting, one of its lateral faces (9a, 9b) in the direction (F) of the hydraulic flow so as to obtain, by modifying the flow, a support intended for create a reminder moment to straighten the boat.
- the stabilization means comprise several pivoting flaps each constituting a mobile stabilization member (OM).
- the device comprises three pivoting flaps (10a, 10b, 10c) articulated along axes (8a, 8b, 8c) parallel to each other and substantially vertical.
- Said flaps are rectangular and identical and each pivot according to one of their perpendicular bisectors, which is arranged substantially vertical. They are arranged in the extension of each other when they are in the inactive position and completely fill an orifice (11) of the type described in the second embodiment, so as to integrate perfectly into the keel (3) .
- the pivoting of said flaps around their respective axes (8a, 8b, 8c) intended to present one of their lateral faces (21a, 21b) in the direction (F) of the hydraulic flow is effected simultaneously by means control such as a mechanical device, for example, intended to manage the pivoting angle of each of the movable flaps (10a, 10b, 10c).
- control such as a mechanical device, for example, intended to manage the pivoting angle of each of the movable flaps (10a, 10b, 10c).
- pivoting of the flaps could also be managed by the control means in a non-simultaneous manner and thus make it possible to pivot only one of said flaps (10a, 10b, 10c) when this is sufficient to straighten the boat (2 ).
- control means may also include a computerized unit making it possible to take into account the various navigation parameters linked in particular to the boat, its operation or to its environment, as well as pressure sensors, so as to calculate the angle or angles of the mobile stabilization organ (s) (OM) of the optimum active position of the stabilization device.
- OM mobile stabilization organ
- said control means are in a manner known per se of the type allowing continuous adjustment of the angle of inclination of the bearing surfaces, thereby giving them an unlimited number of positions. possible active; however, the adjustment could also be of the step-by-step type, so that the mobile stabilization member can only take on a determined number of different positions, without however departing from the protective field of the invention.
- the mobile stabilization members are constituted by two pivoting flaps (10a, 10b) arranged in an orifice or a window (11) located in the central part of the keel (3). These flaps are articulated around two respective pivot axes (8a, 8b) substantially vertical contained in the longitudinal plane of symmetry (P) of the boat (2). These shutters are arranged in the window (11) at the same height in the extension of one another so as to close the window when they are in the inactive position.
- the device comprises a front flap (10a) located at the front of the window (11) and advantageously articulated along an axis (8a) located substantially along the front edge (lia) of said window and a rear flap located at the rear and articulated along an axis (8b) disposed along the rear edge of said window as shown in Figures 8, 9a, 9b.
- the two flaps (10a, 10b) are intended to pivot in the same direction of rotation when they pass to an active position so as to pivot on either side of the longitudinal plane of symmetry (P) with which they form an advantageously identical angle ⁇ as shown in FIGS. 9a and 9b, the front and rear flaps (10a, 10b) thus being advantageously parallel.
- the angle that each of the flaps forms with the plane of symmetry (P) could be different in the same active position, the flaps therefore no longer being parallel, without however leaving the protective field of the invention. Note as shown in FIGS.
- each of the flaps can pivot in both directions of rotation in order to be able to orient themselves on one side or the other with respect to the plane of symmetry (P) as a function of the direction in which cottage the boat
- the length of the front flap (10a) is different from the length of the rear flap (10b). It can advantageously be less than this as shown in Figures 9a to 9b, however these lengths could be the same or the length of the front flap greater than that of the rear flap without departing from the scope of the invention.
- the positioning of the pivot axes (8a, 8b) at the front and rear ends of the front flaps (10a) and rear (10b) respectively allows during the positioning of the flaps in the active position to divert the hydraulic flow (F ) by opposing it with a lateral face of each of said flaps, thereby creating the return moment intended to compensate for the heeling of the boat (2).
- the hydraulic flow is then diverted so as to pass through the keel (3) of the boat (2) through the orifice or window (11) that the pivoting of the flaps (10a, 10b) has made it possible to open.
- the mobile stabilization members may be constituted by side flaps arranged symmetrically around the keel, but which are no longer located in an orifice of said keel. These flaps are thus arranged against the side walls of the latter in the inactive position and then pivot towards their active position by forming a non-zero angle open towards the rear with the side walls of said keel.
- the mobile stabilization members consist of at least two pivoting flaps (12a, 12b, 12c, 12d) which can also be more commonly called “ foils ”, said flaps (12a, 12b, 12c, 12d) being arranged symmetrically on either side of the keel (3) so as to extend from its side walls (3a, 3b) towards the outside of the boat (2) in planes (Ql, Q2, H, Hl, H2) intersecting with the longitudinal plane of symmetry (P) and parallel to the direction (F) of the hydraulic flow.
- Said pivoting flaps (12a, 12b, 12c, 12d) have in their inactive position their respective leading edges (13) in the hydraulic flow, and the flow takes place along their lower and upper walls (14a, 14b) advantageously situated in planes parallel to the direction of the hydraulic flow (F).
- the two pivoting flaps (12a, 12b) are of tapered shape and could in their inactive position be arranged in a plane (H) orthogonal to the plane (P) of the keel, as shown Figure 10b.
- they could also, according to an alternative embodiment of this third embodiment, be arranged respectively in two planes (Ql, Q2) slightly inclined, each forming, in a transverse plane as illustrated in FIG.
- the pivoting flaps (12a, 12b) are respectively pivotally mounted around transverse axes (16) arranged at the front end of said flaps advantageously along their respective leading edges (13).
- control means are constituted by a mechanical device of a type known per se intended to position the pivoting flaps (12a, 12b) in one of their active positions (B1, B2) illustrated diagrammatically in dotted lines in figure lia by rotating them around their respective axis (16) and blocking them in a determined position by means of blocking means, said mechanical system being able to be managed by a computerized control unit automatically, for example, or by a device manual.
- said flaps could be articulated along axes arranged in the central zone of said flaps as shown in a variant illustrated in FIG. 11b, for example, or along their trailing edges (15), without however leaving the protective field of the invention.
- FIG. 11b a mechanical device of a type known per se intended to position the pivoting flaps (12a, 12b) in one of their active positions (B1, B2) illustrated diagrammatically in dotted lines in figure lia by rotating them around their respective axis (16) and blocking them in a determined position by means of blocking means
- said mechanical system being able
- the stabilization device could comprise several pivoting flaps (12a, 12b, 12c, 12d) on the same side wall (3a, 3b) of the keel (3) and be coupled with another movable stabilization member (OM) such as a lower keel extension (4) of the type described above.
- OM movable stabilization member
- the stabilization means comprise lateral flotation members (17a, 17b ) also intended to reduce the heeling of the boat, especially at low speed or when stationary.
- Said lateral members are advantageously constituted by two floats (17a, 17b) movable between an active position, where they are positioned laterally in contact with water, and an inactive position, where they are no longer in contact with water.
- the floats (17a 17b) are mounted on articulated arms (18a, 18b) so as to allow their passage from the active position to the inactive position, and vice versa.
- the articulation of said arms takes place longitudinally around two parallel longitudinal axes (19a, 19b) and locking means are provided in order to maintain the arms and the floats in a determined position, active (B) or inactive (A) such as illustrated in FIG. 13.
