RIGID INFLATABLE FOLDABLE MOTOR BOAT

摘要

The invention relates to the structural design of any combined rigid inflatable motor boat of the RIB (Rigid Inflatable Boat) type. A U-shaped inflatable collar is glued along the perimeter of the boat to sections (1) of a rigid hull and to binding strips (2) between said sections, forming an air-tight construction, wherein the rigid sectioned hull constitutes the load-bearing element. Dampers (4) of tightening devices (3) act to relieve the joints between the sections (1) of critical loads arising when the boat is in motion as a result of differently-directed wave loads. The use of the claimed structural design in a rigid inflatable boat provides for the reliable operation thereof under significant wave loads and also makes it possible to fold the boat quickly, with minimal effort and without detriment to the characteristics thereof, thus reducing the size thereof by three to four times and providing convenient conditions for the transportation and storage thereof.
