Definitions
- Ropes, debris and wire ropes that are accidentally thrown overboard or lost in any other way can, apart from the environmental impact or economic damage that the loss of high-quality ropes can cause, also represent a latent danger to shipping, especially in temporarily very shallow waters, such as shallow tidal ports.
- Such ports are used by motor vessels at such low water levels that the sediment on the bottom (7) is sometimes sucked up by the propeller current, and thus also sunken, lost rope, resulting in a blocked propeller.
- Floating ropes are very easy to recover with a boat hook or directly by hand.
- search drags or warp anchors specially manufactured for this purpose are used for searching and recovery, equipped with different numbers of flukes in different shapes, also corrugated or serrated and sometimes also collapsible, as known from FR 979 241 A.
- What all of these known devices have in common is that they do not pinch a rope caught when being pulled over the bottom (7) or create such high frictional resistance that it does not slip through. If the rope on either side of the anchor fluke has different drag resistance when being pulled through the water, e.g. because of different rope lengths, the rope slides unnoticed over the fluke. For this reason, success is only achieved if the operator is fairly vertically above the site of discovery, e.g.
- the two outer sheet metal tabs are each bent up and down in different directions to create an upwardly bent fluke (3) and a downwardly bent fluke (4).
- it is sensible to bevel the flukes (3;4) towards the middle as shown in Fig.1. Rounding the rear edge reduces the risk of getting caught and getting confused when retrieving the device after accidentally getting caught in the working direction.
- the wedge-shaped opening gaps between the pull tab (2) and the flukes (3;4) determine the degree of clamping of rope, wire rope or other debris that gets caught between them and can be easily optimized experimentally by bending. Very sharp edges of the clamp increase the holding force, but with a greater risk of damage to the rope.
- FIG.2 shows a section from the working direction through the towing eye in the working direction (5) and through the flukes (3;4) in the working position lying on the bottom (7). This makes it clear that how the fluke (4) located underneath ploughs through the sediment of the bottom (7) (shown in dashed lines) and can thus pick up ropes sunk into the sediment.
- the arrangement of the flukes (3;4) and the pull tab (2) relative to one another always results in a functional working position, even after turning upside down.
- a further embodiment of the invention by applying an anti-slip coating to the flukes (3;4) and the pull tab (2) or replaceable covers made of such material is conceivable.
- this device is also suitable for water maintenance for the regular removal of rubbish, for example in pond farms, bathing lakes or harbor basins, because old hose remnants, cables, nets and tarpaulins etc. can also be caught by this anchor.
- an anchor If such an anchor is operated from a floating tool, it is sufficient to attach a trip line to the rear towing eyelet with a length slightly longer than the maximum working depth, with a buoy attached to the other end, which can be used to grab the trip line if the anchor gets out of position in order to recover the anchor.
- Several of these anchors can be assembled to form complete towing gears, e.g. mounted on a towing beam.
- the anchors are conveniently attached to the towing eyes in the working direction (5) with swivel shackles to a towing beam, which can be tared by buoys so that it floats above the bottom but cannot lift the anchor off the bottom.
- the trip lines of the individual anchors are led aft to a beam floating on the water, the same length as the towing beam, and are attached to this with the same lateral distance from each other as the distance between the anchors on the bottom.
- the towline is attached to a cleat on the tow beam or two individual towlines are led from the outer cams of the tow beam to the deck of the implement. This allows the entire towing gear to be kept in a clear and organized manner.
- Sensitive installations in the open sea such as drilling rigs, production platforms, wind farms, pipelines, tidal power stations and submarine cables are preferred espionage and potential sabotage targets of foreign military powers.
- the possibility of a radio connection for espionage activities or for remote action in the case of acts of sabotage that are not carried out by time fuses is very low.
- the fluke opening can be adjusted very specifically to the cable diameter being searched for. Equipping the system with an indicator sensor when catching a cable is also conceivable and, given the values to be protected, also financially justifiable. Regular search trips around the objects to be protected will result in a very high probability of detecting and destroying subversive technology.
- This anchor is a very universal tool for civil and military applications due to its low-cost production, easy handling, very flexible adaptation to different tasks and small storage volume for several units.
