RECEIVING ASSEMBLY FOR RECEIVING A SEAGOING VESSEL AND SYSTEM FOR RECOVERING AND DEPLOYING SUCH A VESSEL IN THE SEA

摘要

A receiving assembly for receiving a seagoing vessel is provided, to be suspended from an articulated arm of a handling structure which is provided with a lifting cable that is intended to carry a seagoing vessel and to move the vessel in a vertical direction to deploy and/or recover the vessel from the sea from a floating building on which the handling structure is secured, the receiving assembly comprising a lower part which comprises receiving means of the vessel, the receiving means having a passage for the cable and defining a cavity capable of receiving the vessel when the vessel is suspended from the lifting cable and arranged to ensure blocking of rotational and translational movements in the vertical direction upward of a seagoing vessel which is generally tubular in form, in relation to the receiving means, when the seagoing vessel is received by the cavity and comes to bear.
