    摘要: Apparatus 20 for a vehicle having a steered member such as a marine vehicle having a helm comprising a rudder 149, the apparatus 20 including a mechanically rotatable steering device 27 and a sensor 142 which senses angular movement of the steering device 27 when the craft is steered. A communication link to the rudder 149 enables the helm to monitor the rudder position. A bi-directional stop mechanism 90 is actuated when the helm determines that the rudder position is beyond starboard or port hard-over thresholds, indicating that the rudder 149 has reached a limit of travel. The helm can cause the stop mechanism 90 to fully engage the steering device 27 to stop further rotation of the steering device 27 in a first rotational direction, corresponding to rotational movement towards said limit of travel. Rotational play is provided between the sensor 142 and the stop mechanism 90, whereby the steering device 27 can be rotated a limited amount, relative to the sensor 142, when the stop mechanism 90 is fully engaged. The stop mechanism 90 is released from engagement with the steering device 27 when the sensor 142 senses that the steering device 27 is rotated, as permitted by said play, in a second rotational direction which is opposite the first rotational direction. Additionally, the same stop mechanism 90, or an optional steering effort mechanism, can be used to provide a dynamic steering effort, whereby the torque required to rotate the steering shaft 26,26.1 is varied based on system inputs and configurations. The required torque is changed by fluctuations of the amount of friction between the steering effort mechanism and steering shaft 26,26.1, based on system inputs and configurations.

    摘要: A maneuvering system for a ship 1 provided with, in the stern, two propulsion systems 2, 3, i.e., a port-side propulsion system 2 comprising a port-side propeller 2a and a port-side rudder 2a, and a starboard-side propulsion system 3 comprising a starboard-side propeller 3a and a starboard-side rudder 3b, wherein control is performed in which: a forward force Fx or backward force Fx of the ship 1 is obtained by the difference between the forward and backward propulsion forces Ta, Tb of the propulsion systems 2, 3 comprising the port-side propeller 2a and the starboard-side propeller 3a; and a first turning moment M1 in a turning direction of the ship generated by the propulsion forces Ta, Tb is offset by a second turning moment M2 in the turning direction of the ship 1 generated by steering the rudder 2b of the propulsion system 2 on one side of the ship, whereby the ship 1 is caused to move in a transversal manner toward the other side while rotation of the ship 1 is avoided. A high degree of maneuverability is thereby achieved with a relatively simple maneuvering operation.

    摘要: An object is to provide a ship handling device enabling easy turning calibration. With a ship handling device (7), during turning calibration with the ship handling device (7), the joystick lever (10) is turned to rotate the forward-backward propellers (4) on the port and starboard sides, and the joystick lever (10) is tilted to change a forward-thrust/backward-thrust ratio of the forward-backward propeller (4) on the port or starboard side or to change rotation speeds thereof, and, when a calibration execution switch (10a) is operated, thrusts generated with the changed forward-thrust/backward-thrust ratio are set as correction coefficients, or, among thrusts generated at the changed rotation speeds (Npn, Nsn) of the forward-backward propellers (4) on the port and starboard sides, thrusts generated by the forward-backward propellers (4) on the port and starboard sides according to the tilting of the joystick lever (10) are set as correction coefficients (Cp, Cs).
