CA 2190758

The invention concerns an auto-pilot for water craft, in partic- ular for pleasure craft and sailing yachts, the auto-pilot having an au- tomatic control device (2) by means of which the helm (1) of the craft is moved. In order to prevent the craft continuing under way when the skipper or helmsman falls over- board, the auto-pilot has a trans- mitter (7) which is a separate unit from the control device, is attached to the skipper or helmsman and is designed to transmit a "man over- board" signal, plus a receiver (4) which is associated with the con- trol device (2) and which receives a "man overboard" signal (6) trans- mitted by the transmitter (7) and controls the control device (2), and hence the helm (1), in such a way that the distance between the craft and the transmitter (7) does not in- crease.

L'invention concerne un pilote automatique pour bateaux, notamment pour bateaux de régate et voiliers, qui comprend un système de réglage (2) qui permet d'ajuster l'appareil à gouverner (1) d'un bateau. Afin d'éviter à tout prix que le bateau ne poursuive sa route, au cas où le skipper ou le pilote passerait par-dessus bord, le pilote automatique comprend une unité émettrice (7), séparée du système de réglage (2), que le pilote ou le skipper peut porter sur lui et qui émet un signal "d'homme à la mer" (6). Le pilote automatique comprend également une unité réceptrice (4), associée au système de réglage, qui peut recevoir un signal "d'homme à la mer" (6) émis par l'unité émettrice (7) qui peut alors influer sur le système de réglage (2) et par conséquent sur l'appareil à gouverner (1) de manière à ce que la distance entre le bateau et l'unité émettrice (7) n'augmente pas.
