Description

Emergency device, applicable in small boats, for warning and location of people.

Object of the invention

The invention relates, as expressed by the set forth herein, to a device of emergency, applicable in small boats, for warning and location of people who contribute to the function to which it is intended a series of advantages and features, apart from other inherent to its organization and constitution, which will be described in more detail go ahead, and that suppose an innovative improvement in this field.

More specifically, the object of the invention consists of an alarm device specially designed to emergency situations, in which for any reason some, several or all of the crew of a vessel, especially of small dimensions (inshore fleet, fishing sports, pleasure boats, etc.), are in a situation of "man in the water", being endowed with means that allow a Immediate notice to both the ship itself to a center of control of such situation as well as of means that determine its exact location for a certain period of time.

Background of the invention

Currently, and as a reference to the state of the technique, it should be mentioned, that on the part of the petitioner ignores the existence of an emergency device, applicable in small boats, for warning and location of people who present technical, constructive and of similar organization.

Explanation of the invention.

Specifically, the device of the invention It consists of three differentiated parts or modules, one personal, which carry each of the crew of the boat from from the moment of embarkation, one of control in the boat, and a third and last module located on the ground in the control center correspondent.

Thus, the first module or personal module, is physically attached to the person, installed on a bracelet, pendant, belt, etc., being able to communicate wirelessly with the module of the boat, so that in case of emergency It emits a radio signal. This module has a minimum operating keypad consisting of an alarm button or button and another cancellation, also having a battery that It confers a minimum autonomy of 24 hours.

The second module, or module of the boat is the person in charge of controlling personal modules and making sure that these are all on board using the right software, as well as maintaining permanent contact of the boat with the ground control module.

In case of detection of a "man in the water", send a serial to the corresponding personal module so that if this you want to cancel the alarm, otherwise, after a while previously established, send a message to the central module with your position by activating the alarm module of the personal module in question.

In addition, the boat module has a buzzer that activates to notify personnel on board the emergency situation, otherwise having a system which allows to detect the sinking situation of the module personal.

This module of the boat also has of an autonomous battery of at least 24 hours, being able to work both network and battery, with communication system GSM or higher and optionally being able to send serial at International emergency frequency for search and rescue.

It should be noted, that the module of the boat, in emergency case, in addition to the corresponding sending of the position to the central module, it is able to optionally send SMS messages to a series of predetermined numbers.

Like the personal module, the module of the vessel incorporates a minimum number of action buttons (number of personal modules, codes, start and stop, code identification, etc.), being able to send from time to time a "beat" serial to the central module, in which the GPS position as well as battery level, number of occupants, etc.

Finally, the central module consists of a communications system and cartography where View the data of the alarms generated. This module is it is preferably installed on a central server that Access via Internet by users, whether they are brotherhoods, marinas, or the rescue service itself, or even users late.

The new emergency device, applicable in small boats, for warning and location of people therefore represents an innovative structure of structural and constitutive characteristics unknown up to now for this purpose, reasons that together with its practical utility, the provide sufficient grounds to obtain the privilege of exclusivity requested.

Description of the drawings

To complement the description that is being performing and in order to help a better understanding of the characteristics of the invention, is attached herein descriptive, as an integral part of it, of a game of pianos, in which, with an illustrative and non-limiting nature, represented the following:

Figure number 1.- Shows in a diagram of blocks a graphic representation of the emergency device, applicable in small boats, for notice and location of people according to the invention, the main elements that integrates as well as the relationship between same.

Preferred Embodiment of the Invention

In view of the aforementioned figure 1 and only, and according to the numbering adopted therein, it can be observed as the emergency device, applicable in vessels of small length, for notice and location of people is essentially constituted from a personal module (1), composed of a small housing (2), installed and fixed by conventional systems on a bracelet, pendant, belt, or similar element carried by each of the crew of the vessel (3), incorporating properly inside connected to the corresponding electrical circuit, a battery (4) with sufficient autonomy, a radio antenna (5) and push buttons drive (6) and disconnection (7), so that it is suitable to communicate wirelessly with the boat module (8), to, in case of emergency, broadcast a radio serial.

For its part, the aforementioned module of the vessel (8), in charge of controlling, using the software adequate available, personal modules (1) and make sure that these are all on board, as well as keeping in touch with the control module (9), it is constituted by a body or housing (10) properly installed in the boat (3) available inside, in addition to the aforementioned software and properly connected to the corresponding electrical circuit, a autonomous battery (11), an antenna (12), a buzzer (13), system GSM communication or higher (14) and operating buttons (15) (number of personal modules, codes, start and stop, code identification, etc.), as well as a serial GPS delivery system (16) and respective systems (17) and (18) suitable for sending signals in international emergency frequency for search and rescue and SMS messages to a series of default numbers.

Finally, the central module (9) consists of a communications system (19) and a cartography (20) where the data of the alarms generated are displayed. This module is it is preferably installed on a central server (21) at which is accessed via the Internet by users.

In this way, and in a summary way, in case of emergency or "man overboard" situation, the module personal (1) broadcasts a radio serial that is automatically detected by the vessel module (8) and that, if not canceled by the bearer by means of the disconnect button (7) incorporating the housing (2), after a while previously established, send a message to the central module (9) with its position also activating the alarm serial of the personal module in issue while the buzzer is activated (13) to alert of such circumstance to the rest of the personnel on board the boat (3).

Describe sufficiently the nature of the present invention, as well as how to put it into practice, it states that, within its essentiality, it may be taken to the practice in other embodiments that differ in detail from the one indicated by way of example, and which will also reach the protection that is collected as long as it is not altered, changed or Modify your fundamental principle.
