Problems solved by technology

Most ships are now equipped with (bilge) pumps to clear water leaks from cargo holds; however when the pumps fail due to, for example, lack of fuel or mechanical failure, etc. and the holes in the hull are not plugged or blocked, The irreversible sinking process will continue

Embodiment Construction

[0019] figure 1 Shown is a top view of a vessel 1 with an inflatable element 9 to expel free air in the event of a breach in the hull 3 to limit the loss of buoyancy to stabilize the vessel and to prevent the spread of fire. In this embodiment a plurality of inflatable elements 9 or bladders are provided in the upper deck 6 of the sailboat 1 .

[0020] Figure 2 shows the figure 1 The side view and schematic diagram of ship 1 in China. Both the upper deck 6 and the lower deck 16 are provided with inflatable elements 9 . In the event of a hole or crack 8 in the hull 3 of the vessel 1, or a fire in the hold 2, the inflatable part 9 is inflated by passing inflation gas into the inflatable element 9 so that the inflatable element 9 is deployed and occupies the vessel 1 so that the free air is completely or largely removed. Since the space occupied by the inflated inflatable element limits the inflow of water, the reduction in the buoyancy of the vessel by the inflowing water is...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for stabilizing and / or keeping afloat of a vessel (1) after an incident like a marine accident, whereby by inflating at least one inflatable element (9) in a subspace (4) of the hold (2) of the vessel (1) by feeding inflating gas into the inflatable element (9), the inflatable element (9) in its inflated use position is provided with such dimensions that essentially the free air of the subspace (4) is displaced by the inflatable element (9) so that flowing in of water into the hold (2) of the vessel (10) is hampered and / or spreading of fire is suppressed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method and system for stabilizing a ship after an accident such as a shipwreck. Background technique [0002] When a ship becomes leaky after an accident (for example, a collision with another ship or floating objects such as buoys or debris), most often a hole is torn in the ship's hull, depending on the size of the breach or hole and its Located above or below the waterline, seawater will enter the ship's cargo hold through the hole. According to Archimedes' principle, the buoyancy of a ship will decrease due to an increase in the weight of the ship or a decrease in the volume of water displaced by the hull due to the effect of water leaking in from the ship's cargo hold. As the buoyancy (force) of the ship decreases, the ship, first of all the hull, will be in deeper water. Due to this hydrostatic effect or connector principle, an irreversible process begins to sink the breach or hole in the hull deeper into the ...
