Abstract (en)

[origin: US2001003963A1] The device makes it possible to stabilise high tonnage ships, when several of them are used. Mainly, it comprises a train of mobile lead masses (12), completed at each end by a pair of jaws (16) pressing against the lateral rails of a housing (3). A single cable (2) serves to pull the train and to control the release of the jaws (16). The control means for displacement and for cable tension are placed on one side of the ship. The winch (20) of one device can be coupled to the winch of an adjacent device, thus allowing compensation should a device fail. Application refers to the stabilisation of high tonnage ships, such as aircraft carriers.
