Abstract:
A guided lifting system, including: a lifting unit, installable on a loading deck and configured to exert a lifting force that has at least one vertically directed component; a pick-up module, associated with the lifting unit and configured to hook a vehicle to be lifted; characterised in that: it includes a guide device, connected to the pick-up module and configured to move the pick-up module in space in a guided manner; the guide device can be actuated and controlled autonomously from the lifting unit.
Abstract:
Described is a visual indicator device for landing aircraft on the deck of a ship, comprising a unit for measuring the instantaneous rolling motion angle of the ship, a light projection apparatus designed to project, on a non-horizontal wall of the ship, at least a first rectilinear segment representing the horizon line.
Abstract:
An air intake device for a submarine comprises a first fixed member connected to the submarine hull and a second member which is telescopically movable relative to the first member to rise up with an upper end of it above the waters surface to allow air to be taken in from the atmosphere during navigation of the submarine at periscope depth, the movable member mounting at its upper end a radar device designed to emerge from the water together with the selfsame movable member.
Abstract:
A lighting system for aircraft landing surfaces, including a plurality of electric lighting elements arranged in an orderly sequence to help to form on the surface a predetermined symbol, visible from the aircraft during landing, at least one branch box for accessing the electricity network, the sequence of the lighting elements forming a chain.
Abstract:
A device for introducing an air flow into a submarine, including a first duct which is fixed relative to the hull of the submarine and a second duct which is telescopically movable relative to the first duct, for emerging from the water with its upper end and allowing the air above to be sucked in while the submarine is running at periscope depth, the first and second ducts being in fluid connection with air sucking means and being at least partly housed in a tower of the submarine.
Abstract:
Described is a system for neutralising underwater explosive devices including an apparatus for identifying a naval mine, a source for emitting an acoustic signal for signalling the position of the naval mine, a first underwater vehicle designed to place the source for emitting an acoustic signal close to the naval mine, a measurement apparatus designed to determine a first distance between the source of emission of an acoustic signal and the naval mine.
Abstract:
An apparatus for sweeping influence mines, including an operating unit having a plurality of propulsion devices designed to be immersed in water and at least one floating body connected to the propulsion devices, the latter being designed to overcome the hydrostatic thrust acting on the floating body to keep the operating unit immersed at a predetermined depth.
