Abrégé

A hydraulic steering system for vehicles includes a steering control member; a hydraulic pump provided with a rotatable driving shaft on which the control member is fitted; a hydraulic actuating cylinder connected with two ports of the pump alternately operating as delivery side and return side of the pump and mechanically connected with a direction changing member, which determines a change in the direction by modifying orientation via an actuating cylinder as a function of the supply of hydraulic fluid to the cylinder from the pump by the steering control member. The driving shaft is dynamically connected with an electric motor/transmission assembly, which is activated alternatively by generating a rotational force auxiliary to the movement manually exerted on the steering control member or opposing the manually exerted movement, or by driving to rotate the driving shaft of the pump in place of the manual action driving the steering control member.

Abrégé

The invention relates to a steering control device for boats that includes a drive shaft, the rotation of which in one direction or in the opposite direction, by way of a control member, such as a steering wheel or helm mounted or mountable thereon, causes a steering input for an outboard motor or rudder. The steering input is generated by a transmission member, housed into a case, configured to transmit the rotational motion of the shaft to an actuator, associated or associable to the motor or rudder, through a transmission circuit. The device includes a first stationary part configured to be fastened on the bridge of the boat and a second movable part integral with the case of the transmission member. The drive shaft and the transmission member are coupled such that the change in the tilt of the shaft by a given angle causes a change in the tilt of the transmission member by the same angle with a corresponding change in the tilt of the case of the transmission member with respect to the stationary part of the device.

Abrégé

A steering control system for a watercraft includes a pivoting steering tiller manually operated and operatively connected to a direction changing member acting on or into the water, such as a rudder blade or an outboard motor; and a system locking the steering tiller in the steering position, which can be activated for keeping the tiller in a predetermined pivoting position and deactivated for allowing the tiller to be moved in a pivoting position to carry out a change in direction. According to the invention the locking system is switchable by way of switching actuators that are controlled by a control member provided on the arm.

A servo-assisted steering device for vehicles includes a manual control member connected to a shaft driving a pressurized control fluid supplying and conveying unit, which has at least two fluid conveying lines connected to one of two chambers of one or more steering actuators. A hydraulic power unit is connected to the supplying and conveying unit and includes a reservoir for the hydraulic fluid and powered pumping means, which are driven by an electric motor and which are connected to the fluid supplying/conveying circuit to supply the pressurized fluid alternately to either one or the other of the two chambers of the actuator (or actuators) depending on the rotational direction of the control member. The electric motor is energized and/or de-energized upon operation of the control member, causing the pumping means to increase the amount of pumped fluid and reduce resistance upon steering the manual control means.

Abrégé

A servo-assisted steering device for vehicles includes a manual control member that is connected to a pump or the like manually driving it when the control member is rotated. The pump is connected at its delivery and suction side to one of the two chambers of one or more steering actuators through hydraulic pipes, feeding a pressurized fluid alternately to one or the other of the two chambers depending on moving direction, in particular the rotation of the control member. Assist control means for the steering actuators include a hydraulic fluid tank and automatic pumping means, which are driven and connected to the hydraulic pipes when the steering wheel is operated and which, by increasing the amount of pumped fluid, increase the pressure exerted by the pump to reduce resistance when steering the control member. The number of revolutions of the motor driving the automatic pumping means may be adjusted.

Abrégé

A single lever control for combined control of the throttle in a marine engine and of a reversing gear includes a rocking lever mounted onto a supporting arm, which is connected to an actuator causing a reversing gear to transmit engine motion to a shaft driving a propeller or the like either in the same direction of rotation as the drive shaft or opposite thereto. The supporting arm is also dynamically connected to position sensors sensing the angular position of the lever and generating a signal uniquely related thereto. The signal is transmitted to a controller of a motorized actuator of the engine throttle. The angular displacement of the lever is transmitted to a transducer converting rotary motion into an electric signal uniquely related thereto via a gear drive having an input gear controlled by the supporting arm and an output gear connected to a transducer control shaft.

Abrégé

A joint connecting a cylinder actuator of a trim tab to a watercraft includes a first part couplable to a wall of the watercraft, a second part couplable to the cylinder actuator, a pin coupled to one part and a pin seat formed in the other part. In one embodiment, the seat is defined by a portion of a circular cylindrical surface having an opening on one side. The surface portion has an angular extension larger than 180°, and the pin has a correspondingly cylindrical portion with a laterally flattened surface for introduction into the opening of the pin seat. The opening of the cylindrical pin seat and the flattened portion/s of the pin are in such reciprocal angular positions that the two joint parts are operably connectable and disconnectable by disposing them in a relative angular position, which cannot be attained in the mounted operating condition.

Abrégé

In one embodiment, a watercraft control apparatus according to the present invention includes a control member that operates a power-consuming unit or load. The control member is operably connected to the power-consuming unit or load through a drive member that transmits a control force and/or a displacement from the control member to the power-consuming unit or load. The watercraft control apparatus further includes an actuator for actuating the power-consuming unit and a magnetic unit for transducing the force and/or the displacement of the control member into a corresponding electric/electronic signal for a corresponding operation of the actuator.

Abrégé

A directional control system for a marine vessel comprising a steering mechanism movable between two extreme opposite positions and capable of altering the direction of the marine vessel; an actuator for moving the steering mechanism between the two extreme opposite stop positions; a directional control station comprising a control element movable between two opposite positions to set a directional steering; and an electrical transmission system transmitting to the actuator the movement stroke of the control element or the position of the control element in the total stroke between the two opposite stop positions. The electrical transmission system transforms the movement stroke of the control element, or the position of the control element, into an actuation signal for the actuator according to a function univocally correlated with the position of the steering mechanism, thereby causing the steering mechanism to assume a steering position that directly corresponds to the actuation signal.
