MEANS OF CONNECTING A PUSHER BOAT AND A BARGE A B S T R A C T Means of connecting a pusher boat and a barge having a notch in the stern portion for receiving the hull of the pusher boat, in a form of three- point supported rigid connection by means of three axially movable connec- ting pins, one mounted at the bow end of the pusher boat to form multi- sten tooth-engagement with a centerline pin-end receiving means consisting of concavities arranged along the barge's centerline at the deepest point of the notch and the other two mounted on both sides of the pusher boat to form combined friction- and multi-step tooth-engagement with side pin-end receiving means formed as vertical slots, in the side walls of the notch, with concavities arranged along the centerlines of the slots' bottoms, by the aid of pressing shoes slidably mounted on the outer end portions of the side connecting pins so that they can be pressed into the slots to realize simultaneous forced contact between the forward and rearward faces of the pressing shoes and their corresponding side walls of the slots. In this way the pusher boat and the barge are so firmly connected with each other that a superexcellent seaworthiness can be assured even in rough ocean waves.
