Definitions
- the invention which relates to the equipment of boats relates more precisely to a retractable ladder for boarding, allowing people swimming next to the boat, to get back on board by their own means, in the best conditions of safety.
- the boats are equipped with at least one ladder intended to be applied against the side of the ship so that people fallen into the water, or who swim around can go back on board without difficulty.
- a folding ladder is provided which is added to the outside of the boat and which is operated from a bridge or a gunwale by at least one person who has remained on board.
- this device has drawbacks. First in terms of safety, because the installation of this folding ladder depends on the person who remains on board who must - in the event of a fall into the water - be aware of the accident and know how to maneuver quickly said scale. Then its use is difficult, even dangerous for people who are in the water, when the ladder folds down.
- the retractable ladder according to the invention which allows this type of maneuver, is easy to handle and has no hold in the storage position for the ropes used to maneuver the boat, nor for traps for the feet and legs of the users.
- An object of the present invention therefore relates to a retractable ladder for going back on board a boat according to which, in the rest position, the entire ladder with the exception of its last rung, is housed and maintained inside a housing forming a receptacle, itself provided inside the hull of the boat and communicating with the outside of said hull through an orifice, said housing having at its orifice of stops opposing the total exhaust of the ladder when it is brought into the use position.
- the last rung has a greater length than the others with an overhanging part on either side of its parallel uprights and in the rest position said overhanging part of the last rung bears against the stops reported on the outside of the shell and which themselves overflow on the orifice of the housing.
- a clip intended to immobilize the ladder in the rest position is arranged inside and at the bottom of the housing and engages on the first rung.
- the ladder is equipped, outside the uprights, with rollers facilitating its movement in the housing.
- the upper part of the housing and its lower part form a recess at the orifice, relative to the shell, and at the level of the connection points between the housing and the shell, this the latter is internally provided with reinforcements in the high position and in the low position.
- the scale visible in the drawings is formed by two parallel uprights 10 and a plurality of rungs 11.
- the lower rung 12 completes the uprights and has a greater length than the others, with an overhanging part 13 on either side of the uprights.
- the ladder In the rest position as shown in Figures 1 and 2, the ladder is held inside a housing 2, forming a relatively flat receptacle, of rectangular section which extends horizontally or substantially horizontally inside of the hull 3 of the boat in which it is integrated and hidden.
- Said box 2 communicates with the outside via an orifice 15 provided in the hull 3 of the boat, an orifice of reduced size making it possible to reach the end of the ladder 10.
- FIGS. 4 and 5 show the installation of such a box 2 inside the aft gunwale of a boat at the level of the cockpit floor 6.
- FIG. 1 shows a certain setback between the upper part of the housing 2 and the lower part, with respect to the shell, recess whose role will be explained later.
- the latter is internally provided with a reinforcement 7 in the high position and a reinforcement 8 in the low position.
- the projecting part 13 of the last rung 12 bears against the stops 9 attached to the outside of the shell 3 and which project a little over the orifice 15 of the box 2, up to the uprights 10 of the ladder.
- the scale 1 externally to the uprights 10, is equipped with rollers 14 intended to facilitate the movement of the scale in its housing and reduce friction and wear.
- the scale 1 is at rest in the housing 2, and has on the outside only a discrete part necessary for its operation, namely its last rung 12.
- This housing 2 protects the ladder from objects on the boat, as well as maneuvering ropes.
- the housing also ensures watertightness, with respect to the interior of the boat.
- Figure 3 shows the scale 1 in the use position. The swimmer can easily grasp the last rung 12 which is flush with the orifice 15 within reach, along the hull 3 and he can pull the ladder so that it escapes the clips 5 and emerges from the housing 2, the rollers 14 facilitating this movement. When the rollers come to bear against the stops 9, the ladder 1 can be inclined downwards and plunge into the water.
- the last rung (s) are therefore submerged and accessible to the swimmer who can go up at least to the level of the housing 2 and from there access the deck of the boat or grasp other means of attachment.
- the ladder is immobilized in this position by the stops 9 which prevent its complete escape and support it, the lifting efforts of the person being transmitted to the hull via the upper rung 11 provided with its rollers, since c 'is through this upper rung that the ladder is supported on solid parts of the hull.
- This retractable ladder can be installed on small and medium-sized boats and ships such as pleasure or fishing vessels, both for safety and for leisure.
- the interior of the housing 2 can be placed in communication for example with the bottom 4 of the cockpit 6; he then intervenes in the circuit self-emptying the cockpit of which it constitutes a link, the water flowing as shown in the arrow in Figure 5.
