Description

PUNTO DE AMARRE PARA EMBARCACIONES MOUNTING POINT FOR BOATS
D E S C R I P C I Ó ND E S C R I P C I Ó N
OBJETO DE LA INVENCIÓNOBJECT OF THE INVENTION
La invención se refiere a un punto de amarre para embarcaciones, previsto con la finalidad de facilitar las operaciones de amarre/desamarre de embarcaciones en los puertos deportivos y mercantes, estando previsto fundamentalmente para su utilización en el amarre de embarcaciones tales como yates, pequeños pesqueros, etc.The invention relates to a mooring point for boats, intended for the purpose of facilitating the mooring / unmooring of vessels in marinas and merchant ports, being primarily intended for use in the mooring of vessels such as yachts, small fishing vessels , etc.
Es objeto de la invención proporcionar a los usuarios de embarcaciones un medio que debidamente emplazado en el puerto permite desde la propia embarcación el amarre de ésta, sin necesidad de una tercera persona que ayude o como ocurre convencionalmente.It is the object of the invention to provide boat users with a means that, duly located in the port, allows the boat to be moored, without the need for a third person to help or as conventionally occurs.
ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓNBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Como es conocido, la forma más común y generalizada de amarrar una embarcación en un puerto de atraque es la de atar el correspondiente cabo de amarre, con un nudo marinero apropiado, a los conocidos "noray" fijados permanentemente en el suelo del puerto, de manera que el atado del cabo sobre el correspondiente "noray" lo debe realizar una persona que o bien se encuentra en el puerto en el momento de atracar la embarcación, o bien haya descendido de ésta y efectúe esa operación de amarre o atado del cabo.As is known, the most common and generalized way of mooring a boat in a berthing port is to tie the corresponding mooring line, with an appropriate marine knot, to the known "noray" permanently fixed on the floor of the port, of so that the tying of the rope on the corresponding "noray" must be carried out by a person who is either in the port at the time of docking the boat, or has descended from it and carry out that mooring or tying operation of the rope.
No obstante, el propio inventor es titular de un dispositivo amparado por el Modelo de Utilidad Núm. 9802175, basado en una especie de cajón fijado en el puerto, y en cuyo cajón están establecidos una serie de ranuras prolongadas en dientes, a modo de un peine, todo ello con el fin de que una bola o esfera de caucho en que se remata para tal fin el respectivo cabo de amarre, sea lanzada desde la propia embarcación hacia ese cajón cayendo en éste y, al ser traccionada por el cabo, producirse el amarre entre los dientes que definan las ranuras establecidas en el cajón, quedando así amarrado a la embarcación instantáneamente sin necesidad de nudos y por supuesto sin necesidad de que la persona que efectúa ese amarre tenga que descender del barco como se requiere convencionalmente, o tenga que solicitar la ayuda de un tercero situado en el puerto.However, the inventor himself owns a device covered by Utility Model No. 9802175, based on a kind of drawer fixed in the port, and in which drawer are established a series of prolonged grooves in teeth, as a comb, all in order that a ball or rubber sphere in which the respective mooring line is finished for that purpose, is launched from the boat itself to that drawer falling into it and, when pulled by the end, the mooring occurs between the teeth that define the grooves established in the drawer, thus being moored to the boat instantly without the need for knots and of course without the need for the person making this mooring to have to descend from the ship as conventionally required, or have to request the help of a third party located in the port .
El problema del dispositivo que se acaba de referir surge a la hora de desamarrar la embarcación, ya que la bola o esfera de caucho debe ser desplazada hacia atrás y posteriormente traccionada hacia arriba, con el fin de saltar por encima del peine, es decir liberarse totalmente del cajón, lo que resulta imposible poder llevar a cabo desde la embarcación. A ese problema hay que añadir el hecho de que el lanzamiento de la esfera o bola desde la embarcación hacia el cajón requiere una pericia para que aquélla sea introducida en el cajón, ya que de lo contrario el amarre no se podrá materializar.The problem of the device just referred to arises when the boat is untied, since the rubber ball or sphere must be moved back and then pulled up, in order to jump over the comb, that is to say free totally out of the drawer, which is impossible to carry out from the boat. To this problem must be added the fact that the launching of the sphere or ball from the boat to the drawer requires a skill so that it is introduced into the drawer, since otherwise the mooring will not be able to materialize.
DESCRIPCIÓN DE LA INVENCIÓNDESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
El punto de amarre que se preconiza, ha sido concebido para resolver la problemática anteriormente expuesta, basándose precisamente en el concepto o idea de lanzar una esfera o bola de caucho o material de similares características, hacia un elemento de enganche que, según la invención, está materializado por una pareja de brazos o varillas que configuran una especie de "Y" con su rama media abierta longitudinalmente para que a través de ella pueda pasar el cabo de amarre, pero con un distanciamiento entre sus ramas menor que el diámetro de la esfera o bola en que se remata el propio cabo, de manera que ese elemento en su conjunto está fijado a una placa solidarizada al suelo del puerto, con el fin de que cuando el usuario de una embarcación lanza desde ésta la esfera o bola vinculada al extremo del cabo, no resulta difícil hacerla pasar entre los dos 'tramos divergentes de la "Y", resultando siempre mucho más fácil que la esfera o bola sea introducida en el cajón de la técnica anterior, todo ello de manera tal que, una vez hecha pasar esa esfera o bola a través de los dos tramos divergentes, el propio peso de aquélla hará que el cabo quede simado entre las dos ramas separadas del tramo vertical de la "Y", y al tener esas ramas en el tramo vertical una separación menor al diámetro de la bola o esfera, ésta quedará retenida y, por tanto, amarrada la embarcación.The mooring point that is recommended, has been conceived to solve the problem described above, based precisely on the concept or idea of launching a sphere or ball of rubber or material of similar characteristics, towards a coupling element that, according to the invention, It is materialized by a pair of arms or rods that make up a kind of "Y" with its middle branch open longitudinally so that through it the mooring line may pass, but with a spacing between its branches smaller than the diameter of the sphere or ball in which the end itself is finished, so that that element as a whole is fixed to a plate attached to the floor of the port, in order that when the user of a boat throws from it the sphere or ball linked to the end of the end, it is not difficult to pass it between the two ' divergent sections of the "Y", always being much easier than the sphere or ball is introduced into the drawer of the prior art, all in such a way that, once that sphere or ball is passed through the two divergent sections, the weight of the ball will cause the rope to be simulated between the two separate branches of the vertical section of the "Y", and having these branches in the vertical section a smaller separation to the diameter of the ball or sphere, this one will be retained and, therefore, moored the boat.
Por otro lado, cabe destacar el hecho de que las dos comentadas ramas del tramo vertical de la "Y", presenten dos patillas emergentes hacia atrás, cuya función es impedir que la bola o esfera pueda salirse de entre las ramas y por tanto de entre los dos brazos de la "Y", en aquellos casos en que la embarcación sea muy alta y el propio cabo de amarre tire de la esfera o bola hacia arriba.On the other hand, it is worth noting the fact that the two commented branches of the vertical section of the "Y", have two backward pins, whose function is to prevent the ball or sphere from leaving between the branches and therefore between the two arms of the "Y", in those cases where the boat is very high and the mooring line itself pulls the ball or ball upwards.
Los brazos, en lo que corresponde a sus tramos divergentes, serán preferentemente telescópicos para poder aumentar la longitud de aquéllos y por lo tanto la amplitud cuando ello sea necesario o conveniente, facilitando así la introducción de la bola entre ambos brazos.The arms, in what corresponds to their divergent sections, will be preferably telescopic to be able to increase their length and therefore the amplitude when necessary or convenient, thus facilitating the introduction of the ball between both arms.
Otra característica de novedad que presenta el punto de amarre objeto de la invención, consiste en que por delante de los comentados brazos constitutivos del elemento en "Y" , se ha previsto sobre la propia placa base fijada al suelo, una pareja de alas abisagradas entre sí formando una especie de librillo que tiende a estar permanentemente abierto por un resorte o elemento apropiado, todo ello con el fin de permitir un fácil desamarre de la embarcación, ya que bastará con extraer primeramente la esfera o bola vinculada al extremo del cabo respecto del elemento en "Y", y situar el tramo de cabo inmediatamente anterior a la esfera o bola entre las dos alas referidas, cerrando seguidamente ambas entre sí y quedando sujetas mediante una pinza, lo que posibilita al usuario subir a la embarcación y mantener ésta amarrada por ese elemento en forma de librillo, de manera que una vez ya en la embarcación bastará con traccionar de la pinza, al estar ésta vinculada a un cable que por su otro extremo se encuentra fijado a la embarcación, lo que lleva consigo la apermra instantánea del elemento en forma de librillo y por lo tanto la liberación del cabo con su correspondiente bola o esfera, permitiendo la recogida de esta última.Another characteristic of novelty presented by the mooring point object of the invention is that, in front of the said constituent arms of the "Y" element, a pair of hinged wings between yes forming a kind of booklet that tends to be permanently open by a spring or element appropriate, all this in order to allow easy dismantling of the boat, since it will be enough to first extract the sphere or ball linked to the end of the end with respect to the "Y" element, and place the section of rope immediately before the sphere or ball between the two referred wings, then closing both together and being held by a clamp, which allows the user to get on the boat and keep it tied by that element in the form of a booklet, so that once in the boat it will be enough to pull the clamp, as it is connected to a cable that at its other end is fixed to the boat, which carries with it the instantaneous apermra of the element in the form of a booklet and therefore the release of the rope with its corresponding ball or sphere, allowing the collection of the latter.
El punto de amarre incluye también, sobre la propia placa solidarizada al suelo del puerto, una pareja de soportes verticales con elementos adicionales que determinen un medio sobre el que es posible realizar un atado convencional, como medio de amarre alternativo o complementario al descrito.The mooring point also includes, on the plate itself in solidarity with the floor of the port, a pair of vertical supports with additional elements that determine a means on which it is possible to make a conventional tying, as a means of alternative or complementary mooring to that described.

REALIZACIÓN PREFERENTE DE LA INVENCIÓNPREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION
Como se puede ver en las figuras referidas, el punto de amarre de la invención, previsto fundamental y preferentemente para el amarre de embarcaciones, tipo yate, pequeños pesqueros y análogos, se constituye mediante un elemento de configuración general en "Y" (1), determinado por dos brazos o varillas independientes con un tramo (2) formando las ramas divergentes y un tramo (3) formando la rama media o vertical del elemento (1) en "Y", de manera tal que los tramos de varillas (3) que forman la rama intermedia están distanciados entre sí, determinando entre ellos un paso (4) que se continúa lógicamente en la abertura que determinan los tramos o ramas divergentes (2).As can be seen in the aforementioned figures, the mooring point of the invention, fundamentally and preferably provided for the mooring of vessels, yacht type, small fishing vessels and the like, is constituted by a general configuration element in "Y" (1) , determined by two independent arms or rods with a section (2) forming the divergent branches and a section (3) forming the middle or vertical branch of the element (1) in "Y", such that the sections of rods (3 ) that form the intermediate branch are distanced from each other, determining between them a step (4) that is logically continued in the opening determined by the divergent sections or branches (2).
Dicho elemento en su conjunto va fijado sobre una placa (5) debidamente anclada en el suelo del puerto, todo ello de manera tal que para llevar a cabo el amarre de una embarcación, bastará con lanzar una esfera o bola de caucho (6) prevista en el extremo del cabo de amarre (7), para hacer pasar aquélla entre los tramos o ramas divergentes (2) del elemento (1), de modo que por el peso de la bola o esfera (6) ésta caerá hacia abajo y el cabo (7) discurrirá entre los dos tramos de varillas (3) correspondientes a la rama vertical del elemento (1), habiéndose previsto lógicamente que la separación entre las comentadas ramas o tramos (3) de varillas sea menor que el diámetro de la esfera o bola (6) para que ésta queda retenida por aquéllos, una vez introducido el cabo (7) entre las mismas.Said element as a whole is fixed on a plate (5) duly anchored in the floor of the port, all in such a way that to carry out the mooring of a boat, it will be enough to launch a rubber sphere or ball (6) provided at the end of the mooring line (7), to make it pass between the divergent sections or branches (2) of the element (1), of so that by the weight of the ball or sphere (6) it will fall down and the end (7) will run between the two sections of rods (3) corresponding to the vertical branch of the element (1), with the logical prediction that the separation between the mentioned branches or sections (3) of rods is smaller than the diameter of the sphere or ball (6) so that it is retained by them, once the end (7) has been introduced between them.
De esta manera queda perfectamente amarrada una embarcación, resultando fácil la operación de enganche, de acuerdo con lo expuesto con anterioridad.In this way a boat is perfectly moored, making the hitching operation easy, in accordance with the above.
Preferentemente, los tramos divergentes (2) serán telescópicos, con lo que aquéllos irán alojados en respectivos tramos tubulares y envolventes (2'), facultados de desplazarse axialmente respecto de los tramos internos (2) y fijarse en cualquier punto, al objeto de que cuando se crea o sea necesario llevar a cabo la extensibilidad o replegado de estos tramos o brazos, y conseguir una mayor o menor amplitud de la abertura que determinan los mismos.Preferably, the divergent sections (2) will be telescopic, so that they will be housed in respective tubular and enveloping sections (2 '), empowered to move axially with respect to the internal sections (2) and fixed at any point, in order that when it is created or necessary to carry out the extensibility or folding of these sections or arms, and achieve a greater or lesser amplitude of the opening that they determine.
También se ha previsto que los tramos de varilla (3) correspondientes a la rama media o vertical del elemento (1) en "Y", cuenten con una pareja de patillas (8) proyectadas hacia atrás, determinantes de topes para impedir que la esfera o bola (6) ascienda y pueda liberarse respecto del elemento en "Y" (1), cuando la embarcación tenga, por ejemplo, gran altura y el cabo (7) traccione de aquélla y tienda a liberarla del comentado elemento de amarre.It is also provided that the rod sections (3) corresponding to the middle or vertical branch of the element (1) in "Y", have a pair of pins (8) projected backwards, stoppers determining to prevent the sphere or ball (6) ascend and can be released with respect to the element in "Y" (1), when the vessel has, for example, great height and the rope (7) pulls from it and tends to free it from the said mooring element.
Para realizar el desamarre se ha previsto que el conjunto se complemente con una pareja de placas (9) y (9'), vinculadas entre sí a través de un abisagramiento común (10), estando la placa (9) solidarizada a la placa de fijación (5) correspondiente, mientras que la placa (9') es basculante respecto de aquélla para formar una especie de libro entre ambas, tendiendo dicha placa (9') hacia la posición permanente de apertura por medio de un resorte o cualquier otro elemento convencional que puede ir dispuesto en el propio eje de abisagramiento (10) o en cualquier otro lugar, de manera tal que cuando el usuario de la embarcación vaya a subir bastará con que libere la bola o esfera (6) del elemento (1) y sitúe aquélla entre el elemento que forman las partes abisagradas (9) y (9') y el propio elemento (1), disponiendo el cabo (7) apoyado sobre la placa (9) y llevando a cabo el basculamiento hacia la posición de cierre de la placa (9'), quedando así retenida la bola o esfera (6) entre ambas placas (9) y (9'), que se mantendrán en esa posición de cierre por medio de una horquilla (11) vinculada a un cable ( 12) fijado a la propia embarcación, todo ello de modo que el usuario de la embarcación, habiendo hecho esa operación antes de subir al barco, no tendrá más que traccionar del cable (12) para liberar la pinza u horquilla (11) que mantenía cerradas las dos placas (9) y (9'), con lo que una vez liberada esa pinza (11) se efectuará la apertura de la placa (9') por medio del resorte o muelle ya referido, liberándose así el cabo (7) y por lo tanto la bola o esfera (6), lo que permite al usuario de la embarcación la recogida de éste y por lo tanto de la bola o esfera (6).In order to untangle it is planned that the assembly be complemented with a pair of plates (9) and (9 '), linked to each other through a common hinge (10), the plate (9) being in solidarity with the plate corresponding fixing (5), while the plate (9 ') is tilting with respect to that to form a kind of book between the two, said plate (9 ') tending towards the permanent opening position by means of a spring or any other conventional element that can be arranged on the hinge axis itself (10) or on any other place, so that when the user of the boat is going to climb it will be enough to release the ball or sphere (6) from the element (1) and place it between the element that forms the hinged parts (9) and (9 ') and the element itself (1), arranging the end (7) resting on the plate (9) and carrying out the tilting towards the closing position of the plate (9 '), thus retaining the ball or sphere (6) between both plates (9) and (9 '), which will be maintained in that closed position by means of a fork (11) linked to a cable (12) fixed to the vessel itself, all so that the user of the vessel, having done that operation before boarding the ship, will only have to drive d the cable (12) to release the clamp or fork (11) that kept the two plates (9) and (9 ') closed, so that once that clamp (11) is released, the plate will be opened (9' ) by means of the aforementioned spring or spring, thus releasing the end (7) and therefore the ball or sphere (6), which allows the vessel user to collect it and therefore from the ball or sphere (6).
Finalmente decir que sobre la placa (5) ya referida con anterioridad, se han previsto complementariamente unos soportes (13) con elementos (14) determinando medios que permiten llevar a cabo un atado convencional, como alternativa o complemento del amarre que proporciona el conjunto referido con anterioridad.Finally, to say that on the plate (5) already referred to above, some supports (13) with elements (14) have been provided in addition to determining means that allow carrying out a conventional tying, as an alternative or complement to the mooring provided by the referred set in advance
No se considera necesario hacer más extensa esta descripción para que cualquier experto en la materia comprenda el alcance de la invención y las ventajas que de la misma se derivan.It is not considered necessary to make this description more extensive so that any person skilled in the art understands the scope of the invention and the advantages derived therefrom.
Los materiales, forma, tamaño y disposición de los elementos serán susceptibles de variación siempre y cuando ello no suponga una alteración en la esencialidad del invento.The materials, shape, size and arrangement of the elements will be susceptible of variation as long as this does not imply an alteration in the essentiality of the invention.
