Enhanced system and method for detangling and protection of automatic fender positioning systems

摘要

An enhanced system and various methods for detangling and positioning of automatic fender positioning systems, comprising a system for stowing a boat fender in a fender receptacle, the receptacle having an opening for threading through a line, the line being attached to the fender, the line operable to pull up the fender into the receptacle through a second opening at the bottom of the receptacle, where upon while retracting the fender, the motor is configured to detect changes in current, and is configured to shut down if an overcurrent state is detected, the overcurrent state detection being based at least in part on a configured current limit.

1. A system for stowing a boat fender, comprising: a fender receptacle, the receptacle having an opening for threading through a line, the line being attached to the fender and passing through a movable bar comprising at least a cross-member spanning an interior of the receptacle and having an opening for allowing the line to pass through and configured to move freely along at least a vertical axis of the receptacle, the line connected at one end to a motor operable to pull up the fender into the receptacle, the movement of the line being directed at least in part by the movable bar, where upon while retracting the fender, the motor is configured to detect changes in current, and is configured to shut down if an overcurrent state is detected, the overcurrent state detection being based at least in part on a configured current limit.
