Buoy including a mooring device

摘要

A mooring device comprising a vessel and a buoy interconnected by an outrigger having a horizontal pivot axis connection with the vessel and a universal joint with the buoy. The buoy has a vertical traction-resistant torsionally stiff connection with a ground anchor, an auxiliary buoy being provided with a similar connection to a ground anchor and a parallel guide connection with the first-mentioned buoy. The auxiliary buoy carries a tubular connection between a conduit at the bottom and the top of the buoy in such a way that disconnection is easy.
