CA 2608407

An automatically and remotely operable retractable mooring cleat. The retractable cleat is mountable in a surface, such as the deck (80), of a marine vessel. A source of motive energy forms part of an actuation mechanism energisable by a user to extend or retract cleat members (1,2) from the surface. The cleat members (1,2) each travel along diverging paths as they extend and travel along the same respective paths as they are retracted. The cleat is thereby able to extricate itself from an attached mooring line as it retracts. Multiple retractable cleats may be positioned about a marine vessel, each of which is operable remotely to extend or retract. Single-handed launching of a moored vessel is therefore possible.

L'invention concerne un taquet d'amarrage escamotable, pouvant être actionné automatiquement et à distance. Ce taquet d'amarrage escamotable peut être monté dans une surface, telle que le pont (80) d'un bâtiment de mer. Une source d'énergie motrice forme une partie d'un mécanisme d'actionnement pouvant être activé par un utilisateur pour sortir/rentrer les éléments formant taquets (1,2) de/dans la surface. Les éléments formant taquets (1,2) se déplacent en suivant des trajets respectifs divergents lorsqu'ils sont rentrés. Le taquet peut ainsi s'extraire d'une ligne d'amarrage attachée lorsqu'il rentre. Des taquets escamotables multiples peuvent être placés sur un bâtiment de mer et peuvent chacun peuvent être sortis ou rentrés à distance. Le lancement d'une seule main d'un bâtiment amarré est ainsi possible.
