[0034] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings. In the drawings attached to this specification, the scale and the aspect ratio are appropriately changed and exaggerated from those of the actual objects for the convenience of illustration and understanding. Configurations shown in some drawings may be omitted in other drawings.

[0035] In some drawings, directions common to the drawings are indicated by arrows. In each direction, the tip of the arrow is the first side. In each direction, the side opposite the first side, i.e., the base of the arrow, is the second side. In some drawings, an arrow pointing from the front to the back of the paper in a direction perpendicular to the paper is indicated by an X in a circle, as shown in FIG. 2.

[0036] 1 to 4 are diagrams for explaining one embodiment. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a ship 1 including a cradle 10. The ship 1 floats on water. The ship 1 may float on the sea, a lake, or the like. The ship 1 includes a hull 100, a cradle 10 attached to the hull 100, and a container 5 held by the cradle 10. The container 5 contains a float 2. The container 5 can be released to the overboard with the float 2 contained therein. When the container 5 is released to the overboard, the ship 1 does not need to include the container 5 and the float 2.

[0037] The terms "fore-aft direction" and "up-down direction" used with respect to the ship 1 and hull 100 are based on the normal direction of travel when floating on water. "Front" or "forward" used with respect to the ship 1 and hull 100 means the direction toward the bow in the fore-aft direction. "Rear" or "aft" used with respect to the ship 1 and hull 100 means the direction toward the stern in the fore-aft direction. "Up" used with respect to the ship 1 and hull 100 means the direction away from the bottom of the ship 1 and hull 100 in the up-down direction. "Down" used with respect to the ship 1 and hull 100 means the direction toward the bottom of the ship 1 and hull 100 in the up-down direction. "Overboard" means the part outside the contour of the hull 100 in a plan view (observed from above).

[0038] The "vertical direction VD" used with respect to the pedestal 10 means a direction perpendicular to the mounting surface PL to which the pedestal 10 of the hull 100 is attached. The "upper" or "upper" used with respect to the pedestal 10 and components of the pedestal 10 means a direction away from the bottom of the hull 100 in the vertical direction VD. The "upper end" used with respect to components of the pedestal 10 means a part located at the uppermost position of the component in the vertical direction VD. The "upper" or "lower" used with respect to the pedestal 10 and components of the pedestal 10 means a direction toward the bottom of the hull 100 in the vertical direction VD. In Figs. 1 to 4, the tip side of the arrow indicating the vertical direction VD indicates the lower or lower side. The "lower" used with respect to components of the pedestal 10 means a direction toward the lower side in the vertical direction VD.

[0039] 1 to 4, the up-down direction VD is parallel to the vertical direction. The up-down direction VD is a direction perpendicular to the horizontal water surface. The up-down direction VD may be inclined with respect to the vertical direction in accordance with the inclination of the ship 1 with respect to the horizontal plane. In the example shown in Fig. 4, the up-down direction of the ship 1 and the hull 100 and the up-down direction VD of the cradle 10 are parallel to each other.

[0040] In the example shown in FIG. 3, the float 2 is a bag-shaped member. The float 2 is deployed overboard when it becomes necessary to escape from the ship 1 due to various factors such as fire, sinking, etc. The float 2 has a life-saving function. The float 2 may be deployed by filling the interior with gas. The deployed float 2 accommodates people who have escaped from the ship 1. The float 2 may be made of rubber. It may include a rubber cloth having both sides of a cloth material sandwiched between rubber.

[0041] The float 2 may deploy as a result of expansion by the gas filled therein. In the example shown in FIG. 2, the float 2 is housed in the container 5 in an undeployed state. The float 2 deploys when released overboard together with the container 5. In the example shown in FIG. 3, the float 2 deploys aft of the ship 1. The gas filled inside the float 2 may be carbon dioxide, nitrogen, or a mixture thereof. The gas filled in the float 2 may be housed in a cylinder in a compressed state. The cylinder may be housed in the container 5. The cylinder housed in the container 5 may supply gas into the float 2 when the container 5 is released overboard.

[0042] In the example shown in Fig. 4, the height of the floating body 2 deployed on the outboard OB from the water surface is smaller than the height of the mounting surface PL of the hull 100 from the water surface. In other words, the floating body 2 deployed on the outboard OB is located below the mounting surface PL of the hull 100.

[0043] In the example shown in Figure 1, the hull 100 includes a deck 101 and a bulwark 102 surrounding the periphery of the deck 101. The bulwark 102 extends up from the deck 101. In Figure 1, the bulwark 102 has been partially removed to show the cradle 10.

[0044] In the example shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, the container 5 is a member including a first portion 5A and a second portion 5B. In Fig. 2, the container 5 is held by the cradle 10. In Fig. 1, the container 5 is moving on the cradle 10 toward the overboard OB. As shown in Fig. 1, the container 5 may move while rotating on the cradle 10. The container 5 may move while sliding on the cradle 10. The shape of the container 5 is not particularly limited, but may have a shape that can rotate on the cradle 10. In the illustrated example, the container 5 has a rotating body shape centered on an axis line AXC. The container 5 is rotatable about a central axis line AXC.

[0045] The material of the container 5 may include a resin. The material of the container 5 may include one or more of fiber reinforced plastic, polyvinyl alcohol resin, and vinyl chloride resin. The material of the container 5 may be a mixture of the above-mentioned materials, such as a mixture of polyvinyl alcohol resin and vinyl chloride resin. As the material of the container 5, a resin other than the above-mentioned materials may be appropriately used.

[0046] In the example shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the container 5 includes a pair of widening portions 5X. The widening portions 5X are provided on the outer periphery of the container 5. The width of the container 5 is wider at the widening portions 5X. In the illustrated example, the widening portions 5X are provided continuously around the outer periphery of the container 5. The pair of widening portions 5X extend circumferentially around a common axis AXL. The width of the container 5 along any direction perpendicular to the axis AXL is larger in the widening portions 5X than in the portion adjacent to the widening portions 5X. Each widening portion 5X may extend circumferentially around the axis AXL as shown in FIG. 2. The pair of widening portions 5X may be configured to be identical to each other. The width of the circumferentially extending widening portions 5X is the same in any direction perpendicular to the axis AXL.

[0047] In the illustrated example, the container 5 has a rotating body shape. The widened portion 5X may extend circumferentially around the central axis AXC of the container. The widened portion 5X may extend circumferentially around the central axis AXC of the container. In the illustrated example, the central axis AXC of the container overlaps with the common axis AXL of the pair of widened portions 5X. In the cross section of the container 5 taken along the central axis AXC, the widened portion 5X may have a triangular shape, a rectangular shape, a semicircular shape, or an elliptical shape.

[0048] In the illustrated example, the container 5 includes a cylindrical portion 5R and a pair of hemispherical portions 5S. Each hemispherical portion 5S is connected to the cylindrical portion 5R so as to close an opening of the cylindrical portion 5R. The pair of widened portions 5X are located on the outer circumferential surface of the cylindrical portion 5R. The width of the widened portion 5X along any direction perpendicular to the axis AXL is larger than the width of the cylindrical portion 5R along the direction perpendicular to the axis AXL.

[0049] In the example shown in FIG. 4, each of the pair of widened portions 5X has an axial length CW along the axis AXL. The pair of widened portions 5X are spaced apart from each other in the axial direction by an outer interval CO. The outer interval CO is the maximum distance in the axial direction between the pair of widened portions 5X. The pair of widened portions 5X are spaced apart from each other in the axial direction by an inner interval CI. The inner interval CI is the minimum distance in the axial direction between the pair of widened portions 5X.

[0050] In the example shown in Fig. 1, the cradle 10 is attached to a mounting surface PL of a hull 100. The mounting surface PL may be flat. The mounting surface PL may be a deck 101. The cradle 10 holds a container 5. The container 5 contains a floating body 2 in the state shown in Fig. 2.

[0051] In the example shown in Figs. 1 to 4, the cradle 10 is installed at the rear end of the hull 100. The cradle 10 includes a base member 20 and a swinging member 40 connected to the base member 20. The swinging member 40 is swingably connected to the base member 20. The cradle 10 may be composed of multiple metal members.

[0052] In the example shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the oscillating member 40 includes a first end 401 and a second end 402 opposite to the first end 401. The oscillating member 40 extends between the first end 401 and the second end 402. The oscillating member 40 is attached to the base member 20 near the first end 401. The second end 402 is farther away from the connection portion with the base member 20 than the first end 401. The first end 401 forms a base end of the oscillating member 40. The second end 402 forms a tip end of the oscillating member 40.

[0053] 1 to 4, the oscillating member 40 includes a first oscillating member 41 attached to the base member 20, and a second oscillating member 42 attached to the first oscillating member 41. The first oscillating member 41 is attached to the base member 20 by a first pin PN1. The second oscillating member 42 is attached to the first oscillating member 41 by a second pin PN2. In the illustrated example, a first end portion 401 of the oscillating member 40 is formed by the first oscillating member 41. A second end portion 402 of the oscillating member 40 is formed by the second oscillating member 42.

[0054] The rocking member 40 can rock from a first position P1 to a second position P2 with respect to the base member 20. In the illustrated example, the first rocking member 41 can rock with respect to the base member 20 about an axis line AX1. The second rocking member 42 can rock with respect to the first rocking member 41 about an axis line AX2. The illustrated rocking member 40 is located at the first position P1 in FIG. 2. The illustrated rocking member 40 is rocked to the second position P2 in FIGS. 1, 3, and 4.

[0055] At the first position P1, the oscillating member 40 extends upward from the base member 20. When the oscillating member 40 extends upward from the base member 20, the second end 402 of the oscillating member 40 is located above the connection portion between the base member 20 and the oscillating member 40 in the vertical direction VD.

[0056] As shown in FIG. 2, the swinging member 40 located at the first position P1 may be restricted from swinging relative to the base member 20 by a rope RP. The rope RP may restrict the swinging of the swinging member 40 relative to the base member 20, thereby restricting the release of the container 5 to the overboard OB. In the illustrated example, the rope RP extends between the base member 20 and the second swinging member 42. One end of the rope RP is attached to the base member 20 via a release device RS. The other end of the rope RP is attached to the second swinging member 42. The rope RP passes over the second connecting portion 212 and the container 5 between the one end and the other end.

[0057] 1, 3 and 4, at least a portion of the swinging member 40 that has swung to the second position P2 is located on the outboard OB. In the swinging member 40 that has swung to the second position P2, at least a portion of the first swinging member 41 may be located on the outboard OB. In the swinging member 40 that has swung to the second position P2, at least a portion of the second swinging member 42 may be located on the outboard OB. In the swinging member 40 that has swung to the second position P2, the second end 402 may be located on the outboard OB.

[0058] 1, 3 and 4, at least a portion of the rocking member 40 that has swung to the second position P2 extends downward from the base member 20 toward the outboard OB. "At least a portion of the rocking member 40 extends downward from the base member 20 toward the outboard OB" means that at least a portion of the rocking member 40 includes a portion that is closer to the outboard OB than the connection portion between the base member 20 and the rocking member 40 and is located lower than the connection portion.

[0059] When the rocking member 40 is swung to the second position P2, the first rocking member 41 may extend downward from the base member 20 toward the outboard OB. When the rocking member 40 is swung to the second position P2, the second rocking member 42 may extend downward from the base member 20 toward the outboard OB. The second rocking member 42, which has swung relative to the first rocking member 41, may extend downward further toward the outboard OB than the first rocking member 41.

[0060] When the oscillating member 40 is oscillated to the second position P2, the tip end of the oscillating member 40 may be located lower than the base end of the oscillating member 40. In the example shown in Fig. 1, Fig. 3, and Fig. 4, the second end 402 is located lower than the first end 401.

[0061] 3 and 4, the rocking member 40 that has swung to the second position P2 extends above the mounting surface PL of the hull 100. The tip of the rocking member 40 that has swung to the second position P2 is located above the mounting surface PL of the hull 100. The tip of the rocking member 40 that has swung to the second position P2 can be located on the floating body 2.

[0062] In the example shown in Figs. 1 to 4, the mount 10 has a first direction D1 as a direction in which the first axis AX1 and the second axis AX2 extend. In the illustrated example, the first direction D1 is a direction perpendicular to the up-down direction VD. The first direction D1 is parallel to the width direction of the hull 100. The first swing member 41 is swingably connected to the base member 20 by a first pin PN1 extending in the first direction D1. The second swing member 42 is swingably connected to the first swing member 41 by a second pin PN2 extending in the first direction D1. The swing member 40 may have a width direction parallel to the first direction D1. The first swing member 41 may have a width direction parallel to the first direction D1. The second swing member 42 may have a width direction parallel to the first direction D1. The frame 10 has a second direction D2 that is perpendicular to both the up-down direction VD and the first direction D1. In the illustrated example, the second direction D2 is parallel to the fore-aft direction of the hull 100.

[0063] In the example shown in FIG. 1, the platform 10 forms a taxiway GP that guides the container 5 to the overboard OB when the swinging member 40 swings to the second position P2. The taxiway GP includes a first taxiway GP1 and a second taxiway GP2 that is connected to the first taxiway GP1. In FIG. 1, the first taxiway GP1 is formed by the base member 20. The second taxiway GP2 is formed by the swinging member 40. When the container 5 is released to the overboard OB, it passes through the first taxiway GP1 and the second taxiway GP2 in that order. As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 3, the second taxiway GP2 may be located on an extension of the first taxiway GP1. In FIG. 1, the container 5 passes through the first taxiway GP1. The container 5 moves on the second taxiway GP2. The container 5 rolls on the second taxiway GP2. The container 5 is located at the overboard OB.

[0064] 1, 3 and 4, the second taxiway GP2 includes a base-side second taxiway GP21 formed by a first swinging member 41 and a tip-side second taxiway GP22 formed by a second swinging member 42. When the container 5 is released to the overboard OB, it passes through the base-side second taxiway GP21 and then the tip-side second taxiway GP22.

[0065] 1, 3, and 4, the first taxiway GP1 and the second taxiway GP2 may overlap with each other in the moving direction of the container 5. That is, the container 5 may be guided by the first taxiway GP1 and also by the second taxiway GP2.

[0066] 1, 3, and 4, the base-side second taxiway GP21 and the tip-side second taxiway GP22 may overlap with each other in the moving direction of the container 5. That is, the container 5 may be guided by the base-side second taxiway GP21 and also by the tip-side second taxiway GP22. In the illustrated example, the container 5 rolls on the base-side second taxiway GP21 and the tip-side second taxiway GP22.

[0067] 1, 3, and 4, when the swinging member 40 swings to the second position P2, the platform 10 forms a movement route RT for a person M moving from the ship 1 to the floating body 2. In Fig. 3, people M1, M2, and M3 are passing through the movement route RT. The people M1, M2, and M3 are moving rearward. The people M1, M2, and M3 are attempting to escape from the rear of the ship 1 to the overboard area OB.

[0068] In the example shown in Figures 1, 3 and 4, the movement route RT includes a first movement route RT1 leading to the hull 100 and a second movement route RT2 leading to the first movement route RT1. The second movement route RT2 may lead to the floating body 2. In the illustrated example, a person attempting to escape to the overboard OB moves in the order of the hull 100, the first movement route RT1, the second movement route RT2 and the floating body 2. In Figure 3, a person M1 is traveling along the first movement route RT1. A person M2 is attempting to move from the first movement route RT1 to the second movement route RT2. A person M3 is traveling along the second movement route RT2.

[0069] 1, 3 and 4, the movement path RT is formed by a base member 20 and a swinging member 40. The first movement path RT1 is formed by the base member 20. The second movement path RT2 is formed by the second swinging member 42.

[0070] 1 to 3, the base member 20 may include a lower base portion 22 attached to the hull 100, and an upper base portion 23 connected to the lower base portion 22. The lower base portion 22 and the upper base portion 23 may be detachable from each other. In the illustrated example, the lower base portion 22 and the upper base portion 23 are bolted to each other by a plurality of bolts. The lower base portion 22 and the upper base portion 23 can be detachable from each other by attaching and removing the plurality of bolts.

[0071] 1 to 4, the base member 20 includes a first side portion 30A and a second side portion 30B extending up from the hull 100. The first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B are spaced apart from each other in a first direction D1. As shown in Fig. 1, a movement path RT (first movement path RT1) is formed between the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B.

[0072] The first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B may be symmetrical to each other. In the illustrated example, the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B are located at the center of the pedestal 10 in the first direction D1 and are symmetrical to each other with respect to a plane extending in the vertical direction VD and the second direction D2.

[0073] In the example shown in Fig. 4, the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B are spaced apart from each other in the first direction D1 by an outer distance BO. The outer distance BO is the maximum distance between the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B in the first direction D1. In the example shown, the outer distance BO of the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B is smaller than the inner distance CI of the pair of widened portions 5X. The difference between the outer distance BO of the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B and the inner distance CI of the pair of widened portions 5X may be smaller than the axial length CW of the widened portion 5X.

[0074] 4, the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B are spaced apart in the first direction D1 by an internal spacing BI, which is the minimum distance between the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B in the first direction D1.

[0075] In the example shown in Figures 1 to 3, the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B have a first pillar portion 31 and a second pillar portion 32 extending up from the hull 100, a connection portion 33 connecting the first pillar portion 31 and the second pillar portion 32, a support portion 35 connecting the first pillar portion 31 and the second pillar portion 32, and a plate-shaped portion 36 connected to the second pillar portion 32 and the support portion 35. The first pillar portion 31 and the second pillar portion 32 are separated from each other in the second direction D2. The second pillar portion 32 is closer to the outside of the hull 100 (outboard OB) in the second direction D2 than the first pillar portion 31. The connection portion 33 and the support portion 35 extend in the second direction D2.

[0076] As shown in Figs. 1 to 3, the first pillar portion 31 may extend higher than the second pillar portion 32. In the illustrated example, the first pillar portion 31 forms the upper ends of the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B. As shown in Fig. 1, a storage portion 31R for storing a connecting portion 21 (second connecting portion 212) described later may be formed at the upper end of the first pillar portion 31. The storage portion 31R opens upward. The storage portion 31R opens inward in the first direction D1, that is, in a direction approaching the center line of the pedestal 10 in the first direction D1.

[0077] 2, when the swinging member 40 is located at the first position P1, the first pillar 31 contacts the housing body 5 from the side opposite the outboard OB. The first pillar 31 may restrict movement of the housing body 5 into the hull 100, i.e., movement toward the center of gravity of the hull 100, by contacting the housing body 5 from the side opposite the outboard OB.

[0078] The first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B may include a portion constituting the lower base portion 22 and a portion constituting the upper base portion 23. In the example shown in Figs. 1 to 3, the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B include, as portions constituting the lower base portion 22, a lower first pillar portion 311, a lower second pillar portion 321, and a lower connecting portion 331. The first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B include, as portions constituting the upper base portion 23, an upper first pillar portion 312, an upper second pillar portion 322, an upper connecting portion 332, a support portion 35, and a plate-shaped portion 36.

[0079] In the example shown in Figs. 1 to 3, the support part 35 extends between a first end 351 and a second end 352 opposite to the first end 351. The support part 35 extends in the second direction D2. In the support part 35, the second end 352 is closer to the outboard side OB than the first end 351. The support part 35 is connected to the first pillar part 31 (upper first pillar part 312) at the first end 351. The support part 35 is connected to the second pillar part 32 (upper second pillar part 322) at a portion between the first end 351 and the second end 352.

[0080] 1 to 3, the support part 35 is inclined downward toward the outboard space OB around an axis extending in the first direction D1. In the inclined support part 35, the second end 352 is located lower than the first end 351. The support part 35 extends downward toward the outboard space OB. In the illustrated support part 35, a swinging member 40 is attached between the first end 351 and a portion connected to the second pillar part 32 (upper second pillar part 322).

[0081] In the example shown in Figs. 1 to 3, the support portion 35 has a support surface 35a that supports the housing body 5. The support surface 35a faces upward. As shown in Fig. 2, when the oscillating member 40 is located at the first position P1, the support portion 35 can contact the housing body 5 at the support surface 35a. When the oscillating member 40 is located at the first position P1, the base member 20 (the first side portion 30A or the second side portion 30B) can support the housing body 5 at the support portion 35. In the illustrated example, the support portion 35 forms a first guide path GP1 when the oscillating member 40 is oscillated to the second position P2.

[0082] In the example shown in Figs. 1 to 3, the plate-shaped portion 36 is connected to the second pillar portion 32 (upper second pillar portion 322) and the support portion 35. The plate-shaped portion 36 faces the first direction D1. The plate-shaped portion 36 of the first side portion 30A and the plate-shaped portion 36 of the second side portion 30B face each other in the first direction D1. Various members may be attached to the plate-shaped portion 36. In the illustrated example, the seat surface 26 and the regulating member 50 are attached to the plate-shaped portion 36. The seat surface 26 and the regulating member 50 will be described later.

[0083] 1, the base member 20 includes a connecting portion 21 that connects the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B. The connecting portion 21 extends in a first direction D1. In the illustrated example, the base member 20 includes two first connecting portions 211 that connect the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B at a lower portion, and one second connecting portion 212 that connects the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B at an upper portion.

[0084] The base member 20 may be attached to the hull 100 at the connecting portion 21. In the illustrated example, the base member 20 is attached to the deck 101, which is the mounting surface PL, by a plurality of bolts that pass through the first connecting portion 211.

[0085] The connecting portion 21 may be joined to the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B. In the illustrated example, the first connecting portion 211 is joined to the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B. The connecting portion 21 may be joined to the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B by welding.

[0086] The connecting portion 21 may be detachable from the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B. In the example shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 3, the second connecting portion 212 is detachable from the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B. A first movement path RT1 is formed between the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B in a state in which the second connecting portion 212 is detached. The second connecting portion 212 can be accommodated in a storage portion 31R provided at the upper end of the first pillar portion 31 (upper first pillar portion 312). The first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B are restricted from moving in the first direction D1 and the second direction D2 relative to each other in a state in which the second connecting portion 212 is accommodated in the storage portion 31R.

[0087] As shown in Figs. 2 to 4, the base member 20 may include a lifting means 25 that forms a moving path RT. In the illustrated example, the lifting means 25 is located between the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B. The lifting means 25 is provided on the lower base portion 22. In other words, the lower base portion 22 includes the lifting means 25. The lifting means 25 may be a staircase as shown in Figs. 2 to 4. The lifting means 25 is not limited to this, and may be a slope or a ladder. The lifting means 25 forms a first moving path RT1. In the example shown in Fig. 3, the person M1 climbs the lifting means 25 and heads toward the swinging member 40 that has swung to the second position P2. Unlike the illustrated example, the lifting means 25 may be provided on both the lower base portion 22 and the upper base portion 23. The lifting means 25 may be joined to the base member 20 by welding or the like. The lifting means 25 may be detachable from the base member 20. The lifting means 25 may be attached to the base member 20 when the base member 20 forms the movement path RT (first movement path RT1).

[0088] 1 to 3, the lifting means 25 includes, as a staircase, a plurality of step board portions 251 and a side plate portion 252 to which the plurality of step board portions 251 are attached. In the illustrated example, the lifting means 25 includes three step board portions 251. The side plate portion 252 is connected to the lower first pillar portion 311, the lower second pillar portion 321, and the lower connection portion 331.

[0089] As shown in Figs. 1 to 4, the base member 20 includes a seat 26 on which a person moving from the ship 1 to the floating body 2 sits. In the example shown in Fig. 3, a person M2 is sitting on the seat 26. The person M2 has his / her feet (shoes) in contact with the rocking member 40 that has rocked to the second position P2. The person M2 may wait on the seat 26 until a person M3 passing by on the rocking member 40 leaves the rocking member 40.

[0090] In the example shown in Figs. 1 to 4, the seat surface 26 extends between the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B. The seat surface 26 is connected to the plate portion 36 of the first side portion 30A and the plate portion 36 of the second side portion 30B. The seat surface 26 has a first end portion 261 and a second end portion 262 opposite to the first end portion 261 in the second direction D2. The first end portion 261 and the second end portion 262 extend in the first direction D1. The first end portion 261 and the second end portion 262 are spaced apart from each other in the second direction D2.

[0091] 1, 3 and 4, the second end 262 of the seat 26 is close to an upper end of a middle portion 48 (described later) of the rocking member 40 that has rocked to the second position P2. In the example shown in Fig. 4, the second end 262 of the seat 26 faces the upper end of the middle portion 48 in the second direction D2 when the pedestal 10 is viewed in a plan view (observed from above).

[0092] 1 to 4, the seat 26 has a first portion 26A and a second portion 26B that is connected to the first portion 26A and extends down toward the outboard OB. The second portion 26B is aligned with a second swinging member 42 that extends down toward the outboard OB. The first portion 26A and the second portion 26B may be joined to each other. As an example, the first portion 26A and the second portion 26B may be welded to each other.

[0093] 2 and 3, the base member 20 includes a portion that overlaps with the bulwark 102 in the vertical direction VD. The portion of the base member 20 that overlaps with the bulwark 102 in the vertical direction VD is located above the bulwark 102. The base member 20 is connected to the swinging member 40 above the bulwark 102.

[0094] In the example shown in Figs. 1 to 4, the gantry 10 includes a restricting member 50 that restricts the rocking of the rocking member 40 relative to the base member 20. The restricting member 50 includes a portion that protrudes from each of the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B outward in the first direction D1, i.e., in a direction away from the center line of the gantry 10 in the first direction D1. The restricting member 50 may extend between the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B. The restricting member 50 may penetrate the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B. The illustrated gantry 10 has, as the restricting member 50, a first restricting member 51 that restricts the rocking of the first rocking member 41 relative to the base member 20.

[0095] The restricting member 50 may form at least a portion of the seating surface 26. In the example shown in Figures 1 to 4, the second portion 26B of the seating surface 26 is formed by a portion of the restricting member 50 extending between the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B.

[0096] Next, the oscillating member 40 will be described mainly with reference to Figures 1 to 4. Below, the first oscillating member 41 and the second oscillating member 42 will be described in that order.

[0097] The first oscillating member 41 is attached to the base member 20 at one end so as to be able to oscillate. The first oscillating member 41 is able to oscillate relative to the base member 20 about a first axis line AX1 by a pair of first pins PN1. A second oscillating member 42 is attached to a portion of the first oscillating member 41 closer to the other end than the first axis line AX1. The second oscillating member 42 is attached to the first oscillating member 41 so as to be able to oscillate about a second axis line AX2 by a pair of second pins PN2.

[0098] When observed from the second side in the first direction D1, the first rocking member 41 rocks clockwise relative to the base member 20 from the state shown in Fig. 2 to the state shown in Fig. 3. When observed from the second side in the first direction D1, the second rocking member 42 rocks clockwise relative to the first rocking member 41 from the state shown in Fig. 2 to the state shown in Fig. 3.

[0099] In the example shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 4, the first oscillating member 41 includes a pair of grooves 45 extending from the base member 20. The pair of grooves 45 are spaced apart from each other in the first direction D1. The pair of grooves 45 are located outward from the base member 20 in the first direction D1. The pair of grooves 45 are located outward from the second oscillating member 42 in the first direction D1. The first oscillating member 41 may be located inward from the base member 20 in the first direction D1. The first oscillating member 41 may be located inward from the second oscillating member 42 in the first direction D1. The first oscillating member 41 may be disposed between the base member 20 and the second oscillating member 42 in the first direction D1.

[0100] 1 to 4, the groove portion 45 includes a bottom portion 451 and a pair of side portions 452 extending upward from the bottom portion 451. The pair of side portions 452 extend at an interval from each other in the first direction D1. When the swinging member 40 is swung to the second position P2 as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the pair of side portions 452 extend upward from the bottom portion 451.

[0101] 2, when the oscillating member 40 is located at the first position P1, the first oscillating member 41 may support the container 5 from below together with the base member 20. When the oscillating member 40 is located at the first position P1, the first oscillating member 41 may face the container 5 from below. When the oscillating member 40 is located at the first position P1, the first oscillating member 41 may come into contact with the container 5 through the groove portion 45. In the illustrated example, the groove portion 45 comes into contact with the cylindrical portion 5R of the container 5 at a pair of side portions 452.

[0102] 1, when the swinging member 40 swings to the second position P2, the first swinging member 41 may face the housing body 5 moving toward the outboard OB. When the swinging member 40 swings to the second position P2, the first swinging member 41 may come into contact with the housing body 5 from the groove portion 45. In the illustrated example, the groove portion 45 contacts the cylindrical portion 5R of the housing body 5 at a pair of side portions 452.

[0103] 1 and 2, in the first oscillating member 41 facing the housing 5, each of the pair of grooves 45 may be able to accommodate one of the pair of widening portions 5X. As shown in Fig. 2, in the oscillating member 40 located at the first position P1, each of the pair of grooves 45 may be able to accommodate one of the pair of widening portions 5X.

[0104] As shown in FIG. 1, in the rocking member 40 rocked to the second position P2, each of the pair of grooves 45 may be capable of accommodating one of the pair of widening portions 5X. The container 5 may move on the first rocking member 41 with the widening portion 5X accommodated in the pair of grooves 45. The first rocking member 41 forms a base end side second guide path GP21 by the pair of grooves 45. The container 5 may roll on the first rocking member 41 (groove portion 45) about the central axis AXC with the widening portion 5X accommodated in the pair of grooves 45.

[0105] In the example shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, each of the pair of widening portions 5X is located between a pair of side portions 452 of the groove portion 45. The groove portion 45 may accommodate the widening portion 5X by disposing the widening portion 5X between the pair of side portions 452. As shown in Fig. 4, the difference between the interval SW between the pair of side portions 452 and the axial length CW of the widening portion 5X may be smaller than the axial length CW of the widening portion 5X. The widening portion 5X may come into contact with one of the side portions 452, thereby restricting the relative movement of the housing body 5 in the first direction D1 with respect to the stand 10.

[0106] 1 to 4, the first oscillating member 41 includes a connection member 46 that connects a pair of grooves 45. The connection member 46 extends in a first direction D1. The pair of grooves 45 connected to each other by the connection member 46 may oscillate relative to the base member 20 in conjunction with each other. The connection member 46 may be a second restricting member 52 that restricts the swing of the second oscillating member 42 relative to the first oscillating member 41.

[0107] 1 to 4, the second oscillating member 42 includes a plurality of guide rail portions 47 and an intermediate portion 48 located between the plurality of guide rail portions 47. A pair of guide rail portions 47 are provided to face each other in the first direction D1 with the intermediate portion 48 in between. The second oscillating member 42 is attached to the first oscillating member 41 from the inside in the first direction D1. The second oscillating member 42 is attached to the first oscillating member 41 by a pair of second pins PN2 that penetrate the pair of guide rail portions 47 in a manner that allows the second oscillating member 42 to oscillate.

[0108] 4, the pair of guide rail portions 47 are spaced apart from each other in the first direction D1 by an outer gap GO. The outer gap GO is the maximum distance in the first direction D1 between the pair of guide rail portions 47. In the illustrated example, the outer gap GO of the pair of guide rail portions 47 is smaller than the inner gap CI of the pair of widened portions 5X. The difference between the outer gap GO of the pair of guide rail portions 47 and the inner gap CI of the pair of widened portions 5X may be smaller than the axial length CW of the widened portion 5X.

[0109] 4, the pair of guide rail portions 47 are spaced apart from each other in the first direction D1 by an inner gap GI. The inner gap GI is the minimum distance between the pair of guide rail portions 47 in the first direction D1.

[0110] In the example shown in FIG. 1, the pair of guide rail portions 47 form the second guide path GP2 of the housing body 5. The housing body 5 moves in the extending direction of the guide rail portions 47 while rolling on the guide rail portions 47. The guide rail portions 47 include a guide surface 47a. As shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 3, and FIG. 4, in the rocking member 40 rocked to the second position P2, the guide surface 47a may face upward. As shown in FIG. 1, the cylindrical portion 5R of the housing body 5 moving on the second guide path GP2 may come into contact with the guide surface 47a.

[0111] In the example shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the intermediate portion 48 extends between a first edge portion 481 and a second edge portion 482 opposite to the first edge portion 481. The first edge portion 481 and the second edge portion 482 each extend in a first direction D1. The second edge portion 482 forms the second end portion 402 of the swinging member 40. In the swinging member 40 that has been swung to the second position P2, the first edge portion 481 may form the upper end of the intermediate portion 48. In the swinging member 40 that has been swung to the second position P2, the second edge portion 482 may form the lower end of the intermediate portion 48. In the swinging member 40 that has been swung to the second position P2, the second edge portion 482 may be farther away from the hull 100 than the first edge portion 481.

[0112] 1 to 4, the intermediate portion 48 is plate-shaped. As shown in Figs. 1, 3 and 4, in the rocking member 40 that has been rocked to the second position P2, the plate-shaped intermediate portion 48 may be inclined downward toward the overboard OB about the second axis AX2. As shown in Fig. 4, a person passing along the second movement path RT2 may move on the rocking member 40 that has been rocked to the second position P2 by sliding on the intermediate portion 48 that is inclined downward toward the overboard OB.

[0113] As shown in Figs. 3 and 4, the seat 26 may communicate with the upper end of the intermediate portion 48 of the rocking member 40 rocked to the second position P2. That is, the seat 26 and the upper end of the intermediate portion 48 may be close to each other in the vertical direction VD and the second direction D2 to such an extent that a person sitting on the seat 26 can contact at least a part of his / her body with the intermediate portion 48 when the rocking member 40 rocks to the second position P2. In the illustrated example, the intermediate portion 48 is closest to the seat 26 in the vertical direction VD at the first edge portion 481. The seat 26 is closest to the first edge portion 481 of the intermediate portion 48 in the second direction D2 at the second end portion 262. In the example shown in Fig. 3, the person M2 is sitting on the seat 26 and has his / her feet (shoes) in contact with the intermediate portion 48.

[0114] 2, when the swinging member 40 is located at the first position P1, the second swinging member 42 may contact the housing body 5 from the outboard OB side. As shown, the second swinging member 42 may contact the housing body 5 at the guide rail portion 47. When the swinging member 40 is located at the first position P1, the second swinging member 42 may support the housing body 5 together with the base member 20 and the first swinging member 41. When the swinging member 40 is located at the first position P1, the second swinging member 42 may restrict movement of the housing body 5 to the outboard OB by contacting the guide rail portion 47 from the outboard OB side.

[0115] 1 and 2, the second oscillating member 42 may have a pair of mounting parts 49 to which a rope RP that regulates the oscillation of the oscillating member 40 is attached. Each of the pair of mounting parts 49 protrudes outward in the first direction D1 from each of the pair of guide rail parts 47. As shown in Fig. 2, ends of the rope RP may be hooked onto the pair of mounting parts 49.

[0116] The operation of the illustrated pedestal 10 will now be described.

[0117] With the pedestal 10 installed on the mounting surface PL of the hull 100, the container 5 is placed on the pedestal 10. The floating body 2 is accommodated inside the container 5. The container 5 is sandwiched between the first pillars 31 of the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B and the groove 45 of the first swinging member 41 in the second direction D2. The container 5 is sandwiched between the first pillars 31 of the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B and the guide rail portion 47 of the second swinging member 42 in the second direction D2. The container 5 is supported from below by the support portions 35 of the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B and the groove 45 of the first swinging member 41. When the container 5 is placed on the pedestal 10, the swinging member 40 can be swung to the first position P1.

[0118] When the container 5 is placed on the stand 10, the oscillating member 40 is fixed at the first position P1. The oscillating member 40 fixed at the first position P1 is restricted from oscillating with respect to the base member 20. In the illustrated example, the oscillating member 40 is fixed to the base member 20 by a rope RP extending between the base member 20 and the second oscillating member 42. When the container 5 is placed on the stand 10, the movement in the first direction D1 may be restricted by contacting the base member 20 at the pair of widening parts 5X. When the container 5 is placed on the stand 10, the movement in the first direction D1 may be restricted by contacting the first oscillating member 41 at the pair of widening parts 5X.

[0119] In the example shown in FIG. 2, the rocking member 40 located at the first position P1 extends higher than the first side portion 30A. The rocking member 40 located at the first position P1 extends higher than the second side portion 30B. The rocking member 40 located at the first position P1 includes a portion located higher than the upper end of the first pillar portion 31 (upper first pillar portion 312) of the first side portion 30A. The rocking member 40 located at the first position P1 includes a portion located higher than the upper end of the first pillar portion 31 (upper first pillar portion 312) of the second side portion 30B. According to this specific example, when the rocking member 40 is located at the first position P1, it can effectively prevent the container 5 from moving to the outboard OB. Such a frame 10 can stably hold the container 5 when the rocking member 40 is located at the first position P1. In particular, such a frame 10 can prevent the container 5 from falling outside the ship OB when the swinging member 40 is located at the first position P1, that is, when the floating body 2 is not being used.

[0120] With the oscillating member 40 located at the first position P1, the first oscillating member 41 supports the container 5 from below together with the base member 20. The first oscillating member 41 contacts the container 5 from below at a pair of side portions 452 of the groove portion 45. By supporting the container 5 from below with a plurality of members, the container 5 can be stably supported on the base member 20.

[0121] In the rocking member 40 located at the first position P1, the first rocking member 41 faces the container 5. The pair of grooves 45 of the first rocking member 41 accommodate the widened portion 5X of the container 5. The widened portion 5X is disposed between the pair of side portions 452. By disposing the widened portion 5X between the pair of side portions 452, movement of the container 5 to both sides in the first direction D1 relative to the first rocking member 41 is restricted. As a result, when the rocking member 40 is located at the first position P1, the first rocking member 41 can effectively suppress movement of the container 5 in the first direction D1 relative to the stand 10.

[0122] When it becomes necessary to deploy the floating body 2, the fixing of the swinging member 40 to the base member 20 is released. In the example shown in Fig. 2, the rope RP is released by operating a release device RS attached to one end of the rope RP. The fixing of the swinging member 40 to the base member 20 may be released by releasing the rope RP.

[0123] The swinging member 40, which has been released from the fixation to the base member 20, swings from the first position P1 to the second position P2. In the illustrated example, the first swinging member 41 swings relative to the base member 20 about the first axis AX1. The second swinging member 42 swings relative to the first swinging member 41 about the second axis AX2. By swinging to the second position P2, at least a portion of the swinging member 40 is located on the outboard OB and extends down from the base member 20 toward the outboard OB.

[0124] In the rocking member 40 rocking from the first position P1 to the second position P2, the first rocking member 41 comes into contact with the restricting member 50 (first restricting member 51). The first rocking member 41 comes into contact with a portion of the restricting member 50 that protrudes outward in the first direction D1 beyond the base member 20. In the example shown in Figs. 3 and 4, the pair of grooves 45 of the first rocking member 41 come into contact with the restricting member 50 at the bottom 451. This contact between the first rocking member 41 and the restricting member 50 restricts further rocking of the first rocking member 41 about the first axis line AX1.

[0125] In the swinging member 40 swinging from the first position P1 to the second position P2, the second swinging member 42 comes into contact with the second regulating member 52. In the example shown in Fig. 3 and Fig. 4, a pair of guide rail portions 47 of the second swinging member 42 each come into contact with the second regulating member 52 from above. The contact between the second swinging member 42 and the second regulating member 52 restricts further swing of the second swinging member 42 about the second axis AX2.

[0126] When the swinging member 40 swings to the second position P2, the frame 10 forms a taxiway GP. In the example shown in FIG. 1, the base member 20 forms the first taxiway GP1. The swinging member 40 forms the second taxiway GP2. The container 5 moving to the overboard OB passes through the first taxiway GP1, the base end side second taxiway GP21, and the tip end side second taxiway GP22 in that order. In the example shown in the figure, the taxiway GP guides the container 5 to the rear of the ship 1.

[0127] The container 5 is released to the overboard OB. The container 5 is first guided along the first taxiway GP1 on the base member 20. When guided along the first taxiway GP1, the container 5 rolls on the support surface 35a that is inclined downward toward the overboard OB.

[0128] The container 5 is then guided along the base-side second guide path GP21 on the first swinging member 41. When guided along the base-side second guide path GP21, the container 5 rolls on the groove portion 45 with each of the pair of widening portions 5X housed in one of the pair of groove portions 45.

[0129] The container body 5 is then guided on the second swinging member 42 along the tip-side second taxiway GP22. When guided along the tip-side second taxiway GP22, the container body 5 rolls on the guide surface 47a of the guide rail portion 47. After passing the second taxiway GP2, the container body 5 falls from the platform 10 and lands on water. In this manner, the container body 5 is released overboard OB. In the illustrated example, the container body 5 is released backwards overboard OB.

[0130] In the example shown in FIG. 4, the outer interval BO of the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B is smaller than the inner interval CI of the pair of widened portions 5X. The difference between the outer interval BO of the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B and the inner interval CI of the pair of widened portions 5X is smaller than the axial length CW of the widened portion 5X. According to this specific example, the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B are disposed between the pair of widened portions 5X. The first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B may contact the widened portion 5X from the inside in the first direction D1. The contact between the first side portion 30A and the widened portion 5X and the contact between the second side portion 30B and the widened portion 5X restricts the movement of the container 5 in the first direction D1 in the first taxiway GP1. As a result, the base member 20 forming the first taxiway GP1 can stably guide the container 5 to the second taxiway GP2.

[0131] In the example shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 3, and FIG. 4, the first swinging member 41 includes a pair of grooves 45. The first swinging member 41 forms the base end side second taxiway GP21 by the pair of grooves 45. Each of the grooves 45 accommodates each of the pair of widening portions 5X, thereby guiding the container 5 to the overboard OB. According to this specific example, when the widening portion 5X is disposed between the pair of side portions 452 of the groove 45, the container 5 is restricted from moving to both sides in the first direction D1. As a result, the first swinging member 41 forming the base end side second taxiway GP21 can stably guide the container 5 to the overboard OB.

[0132] In the example shown in FIG. 4, the pair of guide rail portions 47 of the second swinging member 42 are separated from each other with an outer interval GO in the first direction D1. The outer interval GO of the pair of guide rail portions 47 is smaller than the inner interval CI of the pair of widening portions 5X. According to this specific example, the pair of guide rail portions 47 are disposed between the pair of widening portions 5X. The guide rail portion 47 contacts the widening portion 5X moving on the second swinging member 42 from the inside in the first direction D1. The contact between the guide rail portion 47 and the widening portion 5X restricts the movement of the container 5 in the first direction D1 on the second taxiway GP2. As a result, the swinging member 40 forming the second taxiway GP2 can stably guide the container 5 to the overboard OB.

[0133] In the example shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 3, the second taxiway GP2 formed by the swinging member 40 (second swinging member 42) swinging to the second position P2 includes a portion located on an extension of the first taxiway GP1 formed by the base member 20. The support surface 35a of the support portion 35 is located on an extension of the guide surface 47a of the guide rail portion 47. According to this specific example, it is possible to prevent a step from occurring between the second taxiway GP2 and the first taxiway GP1. As a result, the container 5 guided along the taxiway GP can move from the first taxiway GP1 to the second taxiway GP2 in a stable state. Therefore, the container 5 can be guided stably from the base member 20 to the overboard OB.

[0134] In the example shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 3, the first rocking member 41 is located outward in the first direction D1 from the base member 20 and the second rocking member 42. The first rocking member 41 extends substantially parallel to the base member 20 and the second rocking member 42. As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 4, the taxiway GP includes a section where the first taxiway GP1 and the base end side second taxiway GP21 overlap, and a section where the base end side second taxiway GP21 and the tip end side second taxiway GP22 overlap. By including the overlapping section of the taxiway GP, the container 5 can be guided more stably. In addition, by the first rocking member 41 extending substantially parallel to the base member 20 and the second rocking member 42, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of a step in the taxiway GP when moving from the first taxiway GP1 to the base end side second taxiway GP21 and when moving from the base end side second taxiway GP21 to the tip end side second taxiway GP22. This allows the container 5 to be stably guided to the outside space OB.

[0135] When the container 5 is released to the overboard OB, it separates into a first portion 5A and a second portion 5B. As the first portion 5A and the second portion 5B separate, the floating body 2 contained in the container 5 is released to the overboard OB.

[0136] The float 2 is deployed from the container 5 that has landed on water. When the container 5 is released overboard, gas begins to be filled from the cylinder into the float 2 inside the container 5. The float 2 expands inside the container 5 with the gas supplied from the cylinder. The container 5 is divided into a first portion 5A and a second portion 5B by the float 2 expanding inside. The float 2 released outside the container 5 is further expanded and deployed by the gas supplied from the cylinder.

[0137] However, the floating structure is deployed at a position away from the ship, and it is not easy to move from the ship to the floating structure that is deployed outside the ship.

[0138] In contrast, the mount 10 according to this embodiment is attachable to the hull 100 and holds a container 5 that houses a floating body 2. The mount 10 includes a base member 20 and a swinging member 40 connected to the base member 20 so as to be swingable from a first position P1 to a second position P2. At the first position P1, the swinging member 40 extends upward from the base member 20 and supports the container 5 together with the base member 20. At least a portion of the swinging member 40 is located outside the ship OB and extends downward from the base member 20 at the second position P2.

[0139] According to this embodiment, the rocking member 40 that has rocked to the second position P2 can guide the container body 5 to the outboard OB from above the base member 20. By guiding the container body 5 to the outboard OB, the container body 5 can be easily and quickly thrown into the outboard OB, and the floating body 2 can be stably deployed on the outboard OB.

[0140] Furthermore, according to this embodiment, the rocking member 40 that has swung to the second position P2 can be used as a movement path RT (second movement path RT2) for the person M moving to the floating body 2 deployed on the overboard OB. By using the rocking member 40 as the movement path RT (second movement path RT2) to the floating body 2, the person M can move to the floating body 2 by passing through the rocking member 40 that is inclined downward to approach the water surface and extended to the overboard OB. Therefore, it is possible to move easily and quickly from the hull 100 to the floating body 2. Also, by drawing the floating body 2 close to the rocking member 40 that is extended above the water surface, it is possible to prevent the floating body 2 from falling into the water during the movement from the ship 1 to the floating body 2. This allows the time required for the person M to move from the ship 1 to the floating body 2 to be significantly reduced.

[0141] As a result of the above, according to this embodiment, it is possible to easily move to the floating body 2 deployed outside the ship OB.

[0142] In the example shown in FIG. 3, the base member 20 includes a seat 26 that leads to the rocking member 40 that has been rocked to the second position P2. The person M can sit on the seat 26 before moving on the rocking member 40. That is, like the person M2 shown in FIG. 3, the person M can wait on the first movement path RT1 before passing through the second movement path RT2. In addition, the person M can smoothly move from the base member 20, which is close to the second end 262 of the seat 26 and the first edge 481 of the middle part 48, to the rocking member 40 (the second rocking member 42). This allows the person M to easily move to the floating body 2 deployed on the outboard OB.

[0143] 3, the seat 26 includes, as the second portion 26B, a portion that extends down along the swinging member 40 (second swinging member 42) that has swung to the second position P2. According to this specific example, the person M can move smoothly from the first movement path RT1 to the second movement path RT2. This allows the person M to easily move to the floating body 2 deployed outside the ship OB.

[0144] In the example shown in FIG. 4, the base member 20 is attached to the mounting surface PL of the hull 100. The rocking member 40 that has been swung to the second position P2 extends above the mounting surface PL of the hull 100. According to this specific example, the rocking member 40 that has been swung to the second position P2 can be separated from the water surface in the vertical direction VD. This allows the float 2 to be easily positioned between the lower end of the rocking member 40 and the water surface, as shown in FIG. 3. Furthermore, according to this specific example, the rocking member 40 that has been swung to the second position P2 can be prevented from at least partially sinking in the water. Therefore, it can be easily moved to the float 2 deployed on the outboard OB.

[0145] In the example shown in Figs. 1 to 4, the base member 20 includes a first side portion 30A and a second side portion 30B extending from the hull 100, and a connecting portion 21 connecting the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B. The connecting portion 21 includes a second connecting portion 212 that is detachable from the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B. When the second connecting portion 212 is removed, a movement path RT (first movement path RT1) for a person M is formed between the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B, leading to the swinging member 40 that has swung to the second position P2. According to this specific example, when the second connecting portion 212 is attached, it is possible to suppress distortion between the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B due to residual stress, temperature changes under hot weather, and the like. In a state where the second connecting portion 212 is detached, the person M can pass through the first movement path RT1 formed in the base member 20. Therefore, according to this specific example, the container 5 is stably supported by the base member 20, and can easily move to the swinging member 40 that has swung to the second position P2.

[0146] In the example shown in Figs. 1 to 4, the base member 20 includes a first side portion 30A and a second side portion 30B extending upward from the hull 100. As shown in Fig. 2, when the rocking member 40 is located at the first position P1, the rocking member 40 extends higher than the upper end of the first side portion 30A and also extends higher than the upper end of the second side portion 30B. According to this specific example, the rocking member 40, which is located closer to the outboard side than the upper ends of the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B, can prevent the container 5 from unintentionally falling overboard. As a result, the cradle 10 can stably hold the container 5 when the rocking member 40 is located at the first position P1.

[0147] In the example shown in Figs. 1 to 4, the base member 20 includes a first side portion 30A and a second side portion 30B extending upward from the hull 100, and a lifting means 25 located between the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B. The lifting means 25 forms a movement path RT (first movement path RT1) for the person M to the swinging member 40 that has swung to the second position P2. According to this specific example, the person M can easily recognize that the movement path RT is formed between the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B by looking at the lifting means 25. As shown in Fig. 3, the swinging member 40 that has swung to the second position P2 can be positioned above the bulwark 102. This allows the person M to easily move outside the hull 100 by climbing up the lifting means 25.

[0148] 1 to 4, the base member 20 includes a lower base portion 22 attached to the hull 100, and an upper base portion 23 connected to the lower base portion 22. The lower base portion 22 includes lifting means 25. According to this specific example, a person M can easily move from the mounting surface PL of the hull 100 to the lifting means 25.

[0149] In the example shown in Figs. 1 to 4, the base member 20 includes a lower base portion 22 including a lifting means 25 and attachable to the hull 100, and an upper base portion 23 connected to the lower base portion 22 and attachable to the hull 100. The lower base portion 22 and the upper base portion 23 are detachable from each other. According to this specific example, the base member 20 can be selected from a configuration including the lower base portion 22 and the upper base portion 23, and a configuration including either the lower base portion 22 or the upper base portion 23, depending on the hull 100 to which the base member 20 is attached. As an example, the base member 20 can be selected from the above-mentioned configurations depending on the protruding height of the bulwark 102 from the mounting surface PL of the hull 100. This improves the degree of freedom of the pedestal 10 depending on the installation environment of the pedestal 10.

[0150] In the example shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 4, the middle portion 48 has a pair of side edges 483 connected to the pair of guide rail portions 47. One of the pair of side edges 483 is connected to one of the pair of guide rail portions 47. The other of the pair of side edges 483 is connected to the other of the pair of guide rail portions 47. When the swinging member 40 swings to the second position P2, the pair of guide rail portions 47 extend upward from both side edges 483. According to this specific example, the pair of guide rail portions 47 can prevent the person M from moving outward in the width direction of the swinging member 40 beyond the both side edges 483 of the middle portion 48. This allows the person M passing through the second movement path RT2 to easily move on the middle portion 48.

[0151] In the example shown in FIG. 3, the intermediate portion 48 is plate-shaped. Person M can move on the oscillating member 40 by sliding on the intermediate portion 48. In the example shown in FIG. 3, person M3 passes through the second movement path RT2 by sliding on the intermediate portion 48. According to this specific example, a person passing through the second movement path RT2 can move smoothly to the floating body 2. Also, according to this specific example, like person M3 shown in FIG. 3, person M can move to the floating body 2 while maintaining his / her posture on the oscillating member 40. As a result, person M can easily move from the hull 100 to the floating body 2.

[0152] In the example shown in FIG. 3, when the swinging member 40 swings to the second position P2, the portion of the platform 10 that overlaps with the bulwark 102 in the vertical direction VD is located above the bulwark 102. That is, the swinging member 40 that swings to the second position P2 passes over the bulwark 102. The second movement path RT2 passes over the bulwark 102. According to this specific example, a person M passing through the second movement path RT2 passes over the bulwark 102 as shown in FIG. 3. The person M passes over the bulwark 102 while passing through the second movement path RT2 as shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4. This allows the person M to easily move outside the hull 100.

[0153] In the embodiment described above, the cradle 10 holds the container 5 that can be attached to the hull 100 and contains the floating body 2. The cradle 10 includes a base member 20 and a swinging member 40 that is connected to the base member 20 so as to be swingable from a first position P1 to a second position P2. At the first position P1, the swinging member 40 extends from the base member 20 and supports the container 5 together with the base member 20. At least a portion of the swinging member 40 is located on the outboard OB at the second position P2 and extends from the base member 20 toward the outboard OB. According to this embodiment, the swinging member 40 that has swung to the second position P2 can be used as a taxiway GP that stably guides the container 5 to the outboard OB. The swinging member 40 that has swung to the second position P2 can also be used as a movement path RT for a person M moving to the floating body 2 deployed on the outboard OB. These allow the person M to easily move to the floating body 2 deployed on the outboard OB.

[0154] Although one embodiment has been described with reference to a specific example, the above-mentioned specific example does not limit the embodiment. The above-mentioned embodiment can be embodied in various other specific examples, and various omissions, substitutions, changes, additions, etc. can be made without departing from the spirit of the embodiment.

[0155] In one specific example of the rack 10 shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 4, the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B are disposed between a pair of widened portions 5X of the housing 5 supported on the base member 20. The outer interval BO between the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B is smaller than the inner interval CI between the pair of widened portions 5X. Conversely, the widened portion 5X of the housing 5 supported on the base member 20 may be disposed between the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B. The inner interval BI between the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B may be larger than the outer interval CO between the pair of widened portions 5X. The difference between the outer interval CO between the pair of widened portions 5X and the inner interval BI between the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B may be smaller than the axial length CW of the pair of widened portions 5X. According to this specific example, the widened portion 5X contacts the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B from the inside in the first direction D1. The movement of the container 5 in the first direction D1 on the base member 20 is restricted by the contact between the widening portion 5X and the first side portion 30A and the contact between the widening portion 5X and the second side portion 30B. Therefore, the container 5 can be stably supported on the base member 20. Furthermore, when the base member 20 forms the first guide path GP1, the container 5 can be stably guided to the swinging member 40.

[0156] In one specific example of the stand 10 shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the pair of guide rail portions 47 are disposed between the pair of widening portions 5X moving on the swinging member 40. The outer interval GO of the pair of guide rail portions 47 is smaller than the inner interval CI of the pair of widening portions 5X. Conversely, as shown in FIG. 5, the pair of widening portions 5X moving on the swinging member 40 may be disposed between the pair of guide rail portions 47. The inner interval GI of the pair of guide rail portions 47 may be larger than the outer interval CO of the pair of widening portions 5X. The difference between the inner interval GI of the pair of guide rail portions 47 and the outer interval CO of the pair of widening portions 5X may be smaller than the axial length CW of the widening portions 5X. According to this specific example, the widening portions 5X come into contact with the guide rail portions 47 from the inside in the first direction D1. The contact between the guide rail portions 47 and the widening portions 5X restricts the movement of the housing 5 in the second guide path GP2 in the first direction D1. Therefore, in this example as well, the container 5 can be stably guided to the outside vessel OB.

[0157] In one specific example of the pedestal 10 shown in Figs. 1 to 4, the oscillating member 40 includes a first oscillating member 41 attached to the base member 20 and a second oscillating member 42 attached to the first oscillating member 41. The oscillating member 40 is composed of a plurality of members. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the oscillating member 40 may be composed of a single member as shown in Figs. 5 and 6. In the illustrated example, the oscillating member 40 is attached to the base member 20 by a pin PN. The oscillating member 40 is oscillable relative to the base member 20 around an axis line AX.

[0158] In one specific example of the mount 10 shown in Figs. 1 to 4, the seat 26 includes a first portion 26A and a second portion 26B that is connected to the first portion 26A and extends downward toward the outboard OB. The second portion 26B is formed by a restricting member 50. However, the seat 26 may be formed by a single plate material as shown in Figs. 5 and 6. The restricting member 50 may be a separate member from the plate material that constitutes the seat 26.

[0159] In one specific example of the stand 10 shown in Figs. 1 to 4, the rocking member 40 includes a pair of guide rail parts 47 extending from the base member 20 and an intermediate part 48 located between the pair of guide rail parts 47. The person M can move on the rocking member 40 by sliding on the intermediate part 48. Without being limited to this, the rocking member 40 may include a pair of guide rail parts 47 extending from the base member 20 and a plurality of footboards 43 connecting the pair of guide rail parts 47, as shown in Fig. 6. The person M may be able to move on the rocking member 40 while gripping the footboard 43. The person M may be able to move on the rocking member 40 while putting one foot on the footboard 43.

[0160] In one specific example of the pedestal 10 shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the rocking member 40 includes a first rocking member 41 and a second rocking member 42. The first rocking member 41 rocks relative to the base member 20, thereby extending downward from the base member 20 toward the overboard OB. The second rocking member 42 rocks relative to the first rocking member 41, thereby extending downward from the first rocking member 41 toward the overboard OB. This is not limiting, and the rocking member 40 may include a portion that extends downward from the base member 20 toward the overboard OB by extending at the second position P2. In the example shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the rocking member 40 includes a slide member 44 that is slidable at the second position P2. In the illustrated example, the slide member 44 is a plate-shaped member that extends in the first direction D1 and the second direction D2.

[0161] In the example shown in FIG. 7, the rocking member 40 is located at a first position P1. At the first position P1, the slide member 44 is disposed between a pair of guide rail portions 47. The slide member 44 is restricted from moving downward relative to the guide rail portions 47 by a stopper 475 disposed on the pair of guide rail portions 47. By accommodating the slide member 44 within the pair of guide rail portions 47, the rocking member 40 can be prevented from protruding upward at the first position P1. This allows the gantry 10 to be made smaller in size in the vertical direction VD.

[0162] 8, the swinging member 40 is swung to the second position P2. The slide member 44 moves along the pair of guide rail portions 47 by the rotation of the wheels 441 included in the slide member 44. The slide member 44 slides relative to the pair of guide rail portions 47. The sliding member 44 extends downward from the swinging member 40 toward the outboard OB.

[0163] The slide member 44 may form the above-mentioned tip side second taxiway GP22 when it is extended from the guide rail portion 47 toward the overboard OB. The slide member 44 may form the above-mentioned second movement path RT2 when it is extended from the guide rail portion 47 toward the overboard OB.

[0164] In one specific example of the gantry 10 shown in Figs. 1 to 4, the gantry 10 includes a restricting member 50 (first restricting member 51) that restricts the rocking of the rocking member 40 (first rocking member 41) relative to the base member 20. The rocking member 40 is restricted from further rocking by contacting a portion of the restricting member 50 that protrudes outward in the first direction D1 from the base member 20. This is not limiting, and the rocking member 40 may be in contact with a portion of the restricting member 50 that is located inward in the first direction D1 from the base member 20. That is, the rocking member 40 may be restricted from further rocking by contacting a portion of the restricting member 50 that is located between the first side portion 30A and the second side portion 30B.

[0165] In one specific example of the cradle 10 described above, the cradle 10 is installed at the rear end of the hull 100. The cradle 10 forms a movement route RT for a person M attempting to escape from the rear of the ship 1 to the overboard OB when the swinging member 40 swings to the second position P2. This is not limiting, and the cradle 10 may be installed at a side end of the hull 100, i.e., an end in the left-right direction of the hull 100.
