Definitions

the present invention relates to the attachment to the sea floor of a flat anchor already on the market, by promoting the inclination of the shovels, thereby increasing its efficiency and stability as soon as the ship recedes.
the removable device or not according to the invention overcomes these drawbacks, allowing the attachment of a marine anchor on the ground, said anchor comprising two shovels (7, 8) placed on the ground, a rod (5) and a boot heel (6),
the claws (1 and 2) fixed on the side of each shovel (or close to) the boot heel (6), the so-called three-dimensional claws (x, y, z) have a vertical dimension (y) which dominates the other two to form a profiled tree, said profiling makes it possible to facilitate its burial in the sea floor during the traction (x) of the anchor.
the claws (1 and 2) are placed on the axis of inclination (z) of the shovels, the end of the said claws is in the axis, or near the axis of inclination of the said shovels
the claws allow the shovels to tilt quickly and find a quick grip on the ground as soon as the ship recedes, the anchor opens and hangs very quickly in the ground, offering immediate efficiency with greater stability (z), it does not put itself on the side, does not turn over when the traction of the anchor is not in alignment with the rod (5).
the shifting movement was quickly stopped.
the flat vertical surface of the claws may have openings which make it possible to limit the resistance of the latter in the sand by letting the latter pass, when the traction of the anchor changes direction, the claws take support on the ground, offering a horizontal axis of rotation that rotates the anchor, it no longer places itself on the side.
the sand introduced into the openings increases the resistance to tearing off the claw.
FIG. 6a and 6b Another version of claws, ( Figure 6a and 6b ) allows the pivot around an axis present on the part screwed on the anchor. This has the consequence of bringing them into alignment with the shovels in order to more easily store the assembly.
the user can retract the claw 2 by pulling it and rotate it to the "storage” position. Lugs will block it in openings provided for this purpose. For more security, you can drill the axis to insert a pin or key (not shown).
All the claws shown below will be fixed on or near the sides of the shovels, at the axis of the rod-to-shovel rotation, or a short distance from the axis towards the tip of the shovels.
the openwork claws or not, could also be molded during the manufacture of the anchor. If the claw is fixed to the back of the axis of rotation of the shovels, its upper end must be machined in such a way that part of the latter is at the front of the axis of rotation to ensure the pivot of the shovel ?
the removable device or not according to the invention overcomes these drawbacks, allowing the attachment of a marine anchor on the ground, said anchor comprising two shovels (7, 8) placed on the ground, a rod (5) and a boot heel (6).
the claws (1 and 2) are placed on the inclination axis (z) of the shovels, the end of said claws is in the axis, or near the axis of inclination of said shovels.
the present invention relates to a flat marine anchor according to claim 1.
the claws allow the shovels to tilt quickly and find a quick grip on the ground as soon as the ship recedes, the anchor opens and hangs very quickly in the ground, offering immediate efficiency with greater stability (z), it does not put itself on the side, does not turn over when the traction of the anchor is not in alignment with the rod (5).
the shifting movement was quickly stopped.
the flat vertical surface of the claws may have openings which make it possible to limit the resistance of the latter in the sand by letting the latter pass, when the traction of the anchor changes direction, the claws take support on the ground, offering a horizontal axis of rotation that rotates the anchor, it no longer places itself on the side.
the sand introduced into the openings increases the resistance to tearing off the claw.
FIG. 6a and 6b Another version of claws, ( Figure 6a and 6b ) allows the pivot around an axis present on the part screwed on the anchor. This has the consequence of bringing them into alignment with the shovels in order to more easily store the assembly.
the user can retract the claw 2 by pulling it and rotate it to the "storage” position. Lugs will block it in openings provided for this effect. For more security, you can drill the axis to insert a pin or key (not shown).
All the claws shown below will be fixed to or near the sides of the shovels, at the axis of the rod-to-shovel rotation, or a short distance from the axis towards the tip of the shovels.
the openwork claws or not, could also be molded during the manufacture of the anchor.
the claws (1 and 2) are placed on the tilting axis of the shovels. They can either be provided with points, or provided with planar surfaces at their ends and parallel to the surface of the shovels.
the claws (1 and 2) are made integral with a “U” type profile (3 and 4) which is pierced with a hole to be fixed on the shovel (7 and 8).
This hole is used to introduce a bolt to fix the device on the shovel of the flat anchor (7 and 8) on the pierced anchor.
a form of claws comprising a point at its end, integral with the profile "U” (4) where the hole 9 is drilled which fixes the anchor on the shovel by a bolt.
claw 1 and 2 comprises a planar surface (20) with openings (21 and 22), there are at its ends two planar surfaces (23 and 24) obtained by folding the part at 90 °, two tabs ( 25 and 30) perpendicular to the planar surface and parallel to each other, are welded to the surface (20). 5 On the fixing lug (25), the hole (27) is intended to receive a screw passing through the pierced anchor. Said screw is screwed into a hole (29) tapped on the fixing lug (30), two holes (26 and 28) are tapped in order to receive two screws which block the shovel in tightening.
claw (1 and 2) has a flat surface (31) folded, at its center in the shape of a "U” then with an angle of 110 ° comprising two openings (38,39), two legs (40 and 41 ) are bent at its end at an angle 5 of 110 °, six holes (32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37) are drilled on the U, the holes (34 and 36), in the axis are intended for receive a bolt that holds the parallelism on both sides of the U, the holes (32, 33, 35 and 37) tapped, are intended to receive 4 screws which serve to block the shovel of the anchor.
claw (1 and 2) retractable for storage a threaded axis is welded in the middle of the base of the profile "U” (4), which has lugs (14 and 15), on the said axis we insert a part 2 pierced in its center, with openings (10,11)) corresponding to the pins, the claw (2) is held in position in the pins on the part 4 by a spring (13) compressed by a nut (12) .
the “U” profile (4) is drilled with four holes. The holes 16 and 19 are intended to receive a bolt passing through the pierced anchor, two holes 17 and 18 are tapped in order to receive two screws which block the shovel in tightening.
claws Another form of claw molded on the flat anchor, the so-called claws have a surface (46,47,52,53) parallel to the rod (5) and perpendicular to the surface of the shovels as well as flat surfaces at their ends (50 , 51,48,49), parallel to the surface of the shovels.
half-claws bent at their ends at an angle of 90 ° one end of the half-claw (48) is pierced with a hole in order to be fixed to the anchor by a bolt with the other half -claw.
the other end of the half-claws (46) has been bent at 90 ° to have a flat end.
An opening (47) allows to open the half-claw.
the body of the claw (52) is cylindrical and has a flat surface (53) at its end.
the body of the claw is cylindrical and is terminated by the surface of the cylinder.
the body of the claw is polygonal and has a flat surface at its end.
the body of the claw is polygonal and is terminated by the surface of the polygon.
the body of the claw is cylindrical, the shaft formed with an angle of with respect to the plane (x, z)
the anchor pivots horizontally around the axis which is located at the level of the claw 1. until the axis of traction is aligned with that of the rod.
the claws can be of different sizes, in proportion to the sizes of anchors the height of the claws must be greater than that of the boot heel (6).
the claws will be made of stainless or galvanized metal.
the retractable version ( figure 6 ) allows the claws (1 and 2) to be folded and folded parallel to the shovels, in order to store the anchor in a locker without taking up too much space. (( Figures 6a, 6b , 6c, 6d ).
the device according to the invention is particularly intended to ensure the opening, the efficiency and the stability of the shovels of the anchor on the ground, immediately when the ship reverses. This has the consequence of preserving the seabed ecosystem, increasing the safety of seafarers by considerably reducing the turning, stalling and shifting of the anchor.
