Filed:

Jan 10, 2003

Appl. No.:

10/340242

Inventors:

James Wooley - Bremerton WA, US
Albert Lindstrom - Sequim WA, US
David Garrison - Seattle WA, US

International Classification:

B63G009/00

US Classification:

114/24000R

Abstract:

Barrier units for use in constructing barriers and a method for constructing the barrier units are disclosed. The barrier units are suitable for a variety of purposes including the construction of security barriers for sensitive facilities or temporarily halted ships. The barrier units of this invention can also be used as buffers between marine vessels or between marine vessels and harbor facilities to prevent damage to vessels. The barrier units of this invention can include vertical uprights, vertical protective mesh, submarine protective mesh, impalement spikes, walkways, and internal compartments for storage or occupation by security personnel. The security barrier can include lights or other electronic devices for providing security. The barrier units can be used to provide security for land-based facilities and for barriers between lanes of traffic.

International Classification:

B63H 512

US Classification:

114 56

Abstract:

The double deadrise with multiple reflex chine boat hull structure and engine mounting system relate to designs for power boat hull structures and engine mounting systems. The hull structure combines the use of two pairs of bottom surfaces, reflex chines and side panels to form a double deadrise hull structure. This design imparts a highly efficient means for dynamic tracking, thereby, preventing "slide-out". The design also enables the hull structure to quickly and easily achieve a plane. The engine mounting device provides an improved means for securing and supporting an engine to a hull structure. The engine mounting device permits the hull structure to have a high transom, reduces the space in the working compartment that would otherwise be occupied by the engine, engine housing, or engine well, permits the proper positioning of the propeller within the water reservoir to achieve optimum thrust performance, provides static flotation and incorporates all of the benefits achieved in the new hull design. The engine mounting system adds approximately two feet of planning surface to the stern which assists the hull structure to maintain an even keel, better trim, and to quickly and easily climb onto a plane without a pronounced sternward pitch.

International Classification:

B63B 100

US Classification:

114 6133

Abstract:

A high performance boat hull structure is provided which combines a V-hull bottom portion 12 with mid hull sponsons 31 and 33 which form longitudinal tunnels with adjacent structures. The mid hull sponsons 31 and 33 have horizontally disposed running surfaces to provide lift at high speeds. Outer sponsons 14 and 16 incorporate running surfaces 24 and 26 and together with mid hull sponsons 31 and 33 form a second air tunnel and engage and deflect side directed spray and wake downwardly providing additional lift and decreasing or eliminating spray and signature wake. Entrance of injected or inducted air into the air tunnel area decreases frictional engagement of the hull with water to improve efficiency and ride.
