摘要:
Apparatuses and methods useful for helping to center watercraft—such as personal watercraft, ski boats, fishing boats, luxury boats, and the like—as they are docked (such as on trailers or watercraft-lifting systems), especially in rough waters and/or strong crosswinds.
摘要:
Apparatus is described for mooring a floating vessel (10) particularly suited to a tanker transporting liquid natural gas which needs to be moored in an offshore environment. The apparatus comprises a semi-submersible floating dock (1) a single point mooring system (5) and at least one rigid arm (3). The arm (3) is pivotally attached to one of the dock (1) and the single point mooring system (5). The arm (3) is suspended from the other of the dock (1) and the single point mooring system (5) by at least one tension member (19).
摘要:
A system, adapted to determine that automatic docking of a boat is completed. The system including a control unit including a processor configured to switch a control mode of the control unit to an automatic docking mode; output a control signal for controlling an automatic steering of the boat when the control mode is switched to the automatic docking mode; obtain a vibration that is exerted on the boat, wherein, when the control unit is in the automatic docking mode, the control unit is configured to end the automatic docking mode when the control unit detects the vibration.

A docking guide for a boat includes a platform having front and back sides, a first lateral side for mounting to a dock, and a second lateral side opposite the first lateral side. The platform has an opening, located between the first and second lateral sides, for receiving a front of the boat therein. The docking guide further includes at least one anchoring element secured to the platform on the second lateral side, a first deflector mounted to the platform thereabove to be partially in the opening near an intersection of the front and second lateral sides; and a second deflector mounted to the platform thereabove to be partially in the opening near an intersection of the front and first lateral sides. The second deflector is shifted towards the back side relatively to the first deflector so that, when the boat moves within the opening, it is forced in a parallel relationship with the dock by its contact with the first and second deflectors.
摘要:
A camera produces image data representing an image of a surrounding view of a watercraft. A controller obtains the image data. The controller recognizes an image representing a specific mark in the image data. With reference to a control data set, the controller obtains watercraft operating information associated with the specific mark recognized in the image data. The control data set defines a relationship between the specific mark and the watercraft operating information.

An inflatable water-based motorised device docking station is described. The inflatable water-based motorised device docking station includes an inflatable tube configurable to form an open ended area to receive a water-based motorised device; a floor area coupled to a portion of the inflatable tube; and a ballast bag with dump attached to the floor area and configured to stabilise the inflatable water-based motorised device docking station.
摘要:
The present invention disclosed in this application relates to a semi-submersible platform with a landing bay. The landing bay has a movable platform that allows the docked vessel to be raised/lowered from/to a body of water. The landing bay also has a stabilizing mechanism for holding a docked vessel stable when the platform is in motion.
