Benefits of technology

The invention allows for a platform to be raised and lowered without interfering with the outboard engines. It also provides access to the platform from the boat while maintaining safety standards. The platform acts as a barrier to prevent access to the propellers by swimmers. Overall, the invention provides a more convenient and safe way to use outboard engines.

Problems solved by technology

These platform assemblies are not suitable for installation on outboard propulsion boats due to the presence of the engines.

Embodiment Construction

[0020]With reference to FIGS. 1 to 4, a boat B provided with outboard propulsion is shown. In FIG. 2, LG indicates the waterline. H indicates the hull, and M indicates each boat engine. Engines M are arranged in an engine shaft P formed at a stern end SE. Engines M can be one or more of one arranged side by side, and they are of the outboard type, that is, a self-contained unit that includes the real engine, the transmission and the propeller, and configured to be mounted outside of the stern end SE of the boat. PH indicates the engine head and S indicates the shank of each engine M, ending inferiorly with a propeller PR. Each engine M is rotatably mounted around a vertical axis to allow the boat to turn. Furthermore, each engine M can be rotated about a horizontal axis parallel to the stern end SE, to allow the propeller PR to be raised.

[0021]At the stern end SE of the boat, a stern platform assembly is installed, indicated as a whole with 10. The assembly 10 comprises a pair of si...

Abstract

A stern platform assembly for an outboard propelled boat, comprising a pair of side support wings, a movable platform arranged adjacent to the side support wings, and a motion mechanism housed within each of the side support wings and carrying the movable platform, wherein the movable platform is movable between a terminal elevation position, in which it is arranged adjacent to the top of the side support wings, and a terminal lowering position, while keeping a predetermined orientation with respect to the side support wings and keeping a closeness relationship with them, and wherein, when viewed in plan view, the assembly encompasses a room circumscribed on three sides by the movable platform and by the side support wings.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims priority to Italian Patent Application No. 102017000053937 filed on May 18, 2017. The entire contents of which is hereby incorporated in its entirety by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to a stern platform assembly for an outboard propelled boat. A boat's outboard engine conventionally means a self-contained unit including the actual engine, transmission and propeller, and configured to be mounted outside the boat transom. The outboard motor is installed on the boat so that it can be rotated around a vertical axis, to provide the ability to tack the boat, and also generally has the ability to be flipped around a horizontal axis to allow the lifting of its lower part in which the propeller is arranged.[0003]There are known stern platform assemblies for boats with inboard propulsion, provided with a mobile platform due to an articulated parallelogram mechanism. These platform a...
