    Technical area
    The subject of the present invention is a system for securing against theft and external aggressions of a submerged beacon provided with means ensuring its ascent to the surface on command meeting the standards and directives in force.
    Prior art
    In the field of underwater beacons, there is already known a submerged beacon for locating fishing gear and consisting of a box containing a receiver, a radio-acoustic signal, a mooring line attached to one of its ends at a mooring point, a mechanism for releasing the beacon allowing it to rise to the surface and a buoyancy reserve; said electromechanical release mechanism is enclosed in an airtight tank thus constituting the buoyancy reserve and controls a pawl blocking or not blocking the free rotation of a winding drum around which the mooring is wound. This type of beacon is very simple in design and its operation is fully reversible. However, this type of beacon does not offer any guarantee in terms of security against external aggressions such as, for example, theft or even strong sea currents resulting in the impossibility of locating or even the loss of the beacon and therefore the loss of the associated object. In addition, this drawback goes against recent requests from the FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization in English, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations in French) which is an intergovernmental organization aiming in particular to harmonize standards in the fields of fishing. Indeed, the FAO in its 2010 report asked the fishing sector to do everything to recover the gear
    BIU001-FR-5_TEXTE DEPOSE_RG / GE
    - 2 fishing lost at sea in order to avoid ghost fishing which unnecessarily destroys the fishery resource in a very significant way and which therefore has a very important ecological impact.
    Furthermore, this known type of beacon is also not in accordance with international law which aims to prohibit the concealment of any device underwater in order to avoid the risk of collision with boats.
    These various drawbacks are partially overcome by a submerged tag similar to that previously described and provided with a securing mechanism such as, for example that described in patent application FR 3 033 156 filed in the name of the Applicant. Said security system comprises a signaling element capable of floating on the surface and connected to the submerged beacon by a link comprising a weakening means capable of breaking, when a force greater than a predetermined value is exerted at its end situated on the side of the signaling element, and a weighted keel extending under the beacon and being arranged in the longitudinal plane of vertical symmetry of the beacon with the pivot point of the submerged beacon and the point of attachment of said link and between these.
    However, this set has a number of drawbacks. Thus, the brittle link capable of breaking has a weakness in terms of use, because if the user does not correctly size the predetermined breaking value of the brittle link, the break can occur prematurely or on the contrary not occur at all. Determining said predetermined value is particularly difficult, because it is necessary to take into account in particular the force due to the winds and currents which will be likely to be applied to the signaling element on the surface and to the brittle link. The determination of said value is all the more delicate as the surface signaling element is very often handcrafted and therefore
    BIU001-FR-5_TEXTE DEPOSE_RG / GE
    - 3 differs from one beacon to another on the same boat.
    Finally, said security system does not make it possible to differentiate between the different types of movement of the submerged beacon: descending or ascending, slow or fast, normal, due for example to the tide, or abnormal.
    Statement of the invention
    The object of the present invention is therefore to propose a system for securing a submerged beacon provided with means ensuring its ascent to the surface on command meeting the requests and laws in force relating to ghost fishing and submerged objects, said system making it possible to secure, reliably and sustainably, the submerged beacon against theft, damage caused by its use and / or the marine environment.
    In this regard, the subject of the present invention is a system for securing a submerged beacon provided with means ensuring its ascent to the surface on command and comprising at least one housing containing a receiver of a radioacoustic signal, a mooring line attached to the 'one of its ends at an anchored mooring point, a release mechanism allowing the ascent to the surface of said tag and a battery; the security system comprising a signaling element capable of floating on the surface and connected to the beacon by a link, said security system being remarkable in that it comprises a reversible coupling device comprising a hooking member fixed to the end of the link opposite to the signaling element, a complementary attachment member secured to the tag and capable of cooperating with said attachment member to allow the connection or disengagement of the link from the tag, a sensor for pressure, a control unit associated with a time measurement unit, said control unit commanding said additional fastening member to detach
    BIU001-FR-5_TEXTE DEPOSE_RG / GE
    - 4 of said attachment member when a pressure variation, measured by associating said pressure sensor and time measurement unit, is greater than a set value.
    The set value preferably corresponds to the pressure variation over time due to the highest tidal range observed in the world.
    According to an alternative embodiment, the coupling device comprises a brittle attachment attached on one side to the tag and on the other to the attachment member of the link, and dimensioned to break, when said tensile force exceeds a predetermined value.
    According to another alternative embodiment, the coupling device comprises a brittle attachment attached on one side to the attachment member of the link and on the other to the tag by means of a trigger clip capable of disengage from the tag when said tensile force exceeds a predetermined value.
    Advantageously, the security system comprises a ballasted keel extending under the beacon and disposed between the pivot point of the beacon and the link attachment member, said keel, the pivot point of the beacon and the 'link attachment member being arranged in the longitudinal plane of vertical symmetry of the tag.
    The security system preferably includes a pressure sensor, integral with the beacon, capable of recording a sudden increase in pressure beyond a set depth and sending, if necessary, the information to the release mechanism. to raise said tag up to said set depth.
    Advantageously, the security system includes a humidity sensor located inside the box in the area accommodating the electrical and / or electronic components, and is capable, if necessary, of triggering the release mechanism and raising it the tag at the
    BIU001-FR-5_TEXTE DEPOSE_RG / GE
    - 5 surface.
    The security system preferably comprises a permanent monitoring device for the battery of the beacon capable of triggering the release mechanism and causing the beacon to rise to the surface, as soon as the level of the battery reaches a minimum threshold.
    The humidity sensor and the battery monitoring device are advantageously associated with indicator lights visible from outside the box of the beacon.
    Advantageously, the security system comprises a flash lamp fitted to the box of the beacon and comprising at least one bulb placed under a transparent protective block fixed on the top of a body containing a control unit associated with a penumbra sensor and a pressure sensor, so that the lamp does not flash until it is dark and the lamp is out of the water.
    The lamp preferably includes a communication antenna compatible with signals from the AIS network and associated with a geolocation device, to alert the owner of the beacon if the latter rises to the surface.
    Advantageously, the security system comprises a probe arranged to be integral with the hull of a boat and comprising a ceramic transducer of generally hemispherical shape.
    According to an advantageous embodiment, the security system includes a remote probe similar to said probe.
    Finally, the submerged beacon security system which includes a specific and unique code for actuation of the beacon on the surface by its owner is advantageously provided with an additional coding device allowing the simultaneous actuation of the

    Best way to carry out the technical invention
    In Figures 1 to 2, there is shown the securing system 1 according to the invention of a submerged beacon 2 provided with means ensuring its ascent to the surface on command. According to an embodiment partially shown, said tag 2 advantageously comprises:
    a housing 3 containing a receiver of a radio-acoustic signal and consisting of two half-shells assembled together by screwing or by any other appropriate means, said housing 3 preferably having an external shape having a hydrodynamic profile, in the form general
    BIU001-FR-5_TEXTE DEPOSE_RG / GE
    7 advantageously of ellipsoid of revolution, allowing it to be insensitive to sea currents,
    - a mooring line 4 attached to one of its ends to a mooring point 5 conventionally anchored in the bottom of the sea,
    a release mechanism, not shown in the figures, allowing the rise to the surface of said tag 2, said release mechanism being advantageously of the electromechanical type and enclosed in a hermetic tank constituting a buoyancy reserve, said release mechanism controlling a ratchet blocking or not the free rotation of a winding drum around which the mooring line 4 is wound, the mooring line 4 passing through an exit point 6 arranged on the housing 3 of the beacon 2 to be attached to said point d anchor 5, said exit point 6 corresponding to the pivot point of the tag 2 and
    - At least one battery providing electrical energy in particular to said release mechanism.
    The beacon 2, which under normal conditions of use is immersed at a depth of approximately 40 meters, is obviously designed to withstand, in particular its housing 3, immersion at a depth up to 80 meters in order to remedy the errors handling and action of sea currents up to 5 knots.
    To meet international regulations aimed at prohibiting the hiding of an object underwater, the security system 1 comprises a signaling element 7 floating on the surface and connected to the beacon 2 by a link 8, said signaling element 7 comprising advantageously a float 71 provided with a flag 72.
    The link 8 is connected to the tag 2 by a coupling device 9 able to separate said link 8 from the tag 2, under certain conditions.
    Referring to Figure 3, the device
    BIU001-FR-5_TEXTE DEPOSE_RG / GE reversible coupling 9 comprises a hooking member 91 fixed to the end of the link 8 opposite the signaling element 7, a complementary hooking member 92 secured to the housing 3 of the beacon 2 and able to cooperate with said hooking member 91 to allow the attachment or separation of the link 8 from the housing 3 of the beacon 2, a pressure sensor 93, a control unit 94 associated time 95.
    The attachment member 91 from the group comprising one to one measurement unit is advantageously chosen from a metal part, a ring, a shackle, a terminal or even a strap. The additional attachment member 92 is then advantageously chosen from the group comprising an electromagnet, a clamp, a hook or even a lever. Said complementary attachment member 92 is capable of retaining the link 8 secured to the tag 2 despite the forces due to the winds, waves and sea currents exerted on the signaling element 7.
    However, it is well understood that the hooking members 91 and complementary hooking 92 could be replaced by any member providing the same effects without departing from the scope of the present invention.
    The control unit 94 is an electronic card powered by the battery associated with the release mechanism or by a specific battery, not shown. Said control unit 94 is able to command the additional fastening member 92 to allow the fastening or detachment of the fastening member 91 and therefore the fastening or detachment of the link 8 of the housing 3 of the tag 2, by function of the data from the pressure sensor 93 coupled with that of the time measurement unit 95.
    Thus, in the absence of normal triggering of the release mechanism which has the effect of raising
    BIU001-FR-5_TEXTE DEPOSE_RG / GE
    - 9 quickly the beacon 2, when a large and rapid variation of the pressure, measured by associating the pressure sensor 93 and the time measurement unit 95, is detected by the control unit 94, this latter command to the additional fastening member 92 to allow the fastening of the fastening member 91 and therefore the separation of the signaling element 7 from the beacon 2.
    In order to be sure that this significant (relative to quantity) and rapid (relative to time) variation is only due to an accidental lifting of tag 2 (link 8 caught in the propeller or net of a boat for example) or intentional (attempt to steal the beacon 2), the control unit 94 is calibrated with respect to a set value advantageously corresponding to the pressure variation over time, that is to say by unit of time such as the minute for example, (important and fast) due to the strongest tidal range, that is to say to the greatest difference in water height between a high tide and a successive low tide, recorded in the world, namely currently the tidal range found in the Bay of Fundy in Canada which is equal to 3.4 meters per hour. Therefore, when a variation in pressure per unit of time, measured by associating the pressure sensor 93 and the unit of time measurement 95, is greater than said set value, then the control unit 94 commands the additional fastening member 92 to separate from the fastening member 91, otherwise there will be no separation.
    Thus, it is clearly understood that if the pressure sensor 93 and the time measurement unit 95 measure a significant pressure variation in a short time, of the order of a few seconds or even a minute, the unit of command 94 will then command the complementary fastening member 92 to detach from the member
    BIU001-FR-5_TEXTE DEPOSE_RG / GE
    - d'acο hooking 91, because it will probably be an unauthorized ascent of beacon 2.
    Furthermore, to ensure that the beacon 2 is immersed at the desired depth, the pressure sensor 93 of the security system 1 can be used to record a sudden increase in pressure beyond a set depth, at know 40 meters deep. In the event of recording such a sudden increase in pressure, said pressure sensor 93 sends the information to the release mechanism in order to raise said beacon 2 to said set depth. Generally, the pressure sensor readjusts the position of the beacon as soon as the measured pressure increases by 0.5 bar.
    However, in the case where the descent of the beacon 2 beyond 40 meters is due specifically to sea currents, the pressure increases progressively and the pressure sensor 93 sends no message to the release mechanism.
    This pressure sensor 93 also makes it possible to determine the responsibilities in the event of damage due to waterways on the beacon 2 by acting as a cookie enabling the maximum depth to which the beacon 2 has been immersed to be known.
    However, for these last two uses, the securing system 1 may include a pressure sensor other than the pressure sensor 93 associated with the coupling device 9, without departing from the scope of the present invention.
    According to an alternative embodiment represented in FIG. 4, the coupling device 9 of the security system 1 comprises a brittle fastener 96 attached on one side to the housing 3 of the tag 2, for example by being tied to the handle of transport 10 of beacon 2 and
    BIU001-FR-5_TEXTE DEPOSE_RG / GE
    - it on the other side the attachment member 91 of the link 8. This brittle fastener 96 is either sized to break, when the force exceeds the determined value, or fixed to the tag 2 by means of a trigger clip, not shown, capable of detaching from the tag 2 when the force exceeds said predetermined value. Those skilled in the art will have no difficulty in calculating this predetermined value as a function of the dimensions of the beacon 2, its mooring line 4 and the value of the sea current applied to the float 71 of the signaling element 7.
    This variant makes it possible to avoid the loss of the signaling element 7 during the ascent of a beacon 2. In fact, during the ascent of a fishing gear, the fisherman will normally trigger the release of a tag 2, which has the effect of making it go up quickly. However, fishing gear is generally equipped with at least two beacons 2. Thus, when raising a fishing gear, the second beacon 2, whose release mechanism has not been triggered, will go up quickly and its coupling device 9 will therefore be triggered and command the separation of the signaling element 7 from the beacon 2, but the link 8 will be retained by the brittle clip 96 in order to avoid, in this specific case, the loss of said signaling element 7. However, the brittle fastener 96 is provided to break during an accidental lifting of the tag 2 (link 8 caught in the propeller or net of a boat for example) or intentional (attempt beacon flight 2).
    Furthermore, even if the beacon 2 is designed to withstand immersion at a depth of up to 80 meters, it can have a manufacturing defect which can cause a tiny waterway. To overcome this drawback, the security system 1 comprises a humidity sensor, not shown, which is located
    BIU001-FR-5_TEXTE DEPOSE_RG / GE
    - 12 inside the housing 3 in the area housing the electrical and / or electronic components. Thus, if a tiny trace of humidity is detected, the release mechanism is automatically triggered and the beacon 2 rises quickly, in less than 8 seconds, to the surface. The housing 3 is then no longer subjected to the slightest pressure and the damage to said components is minimized.
    The security system 1 according to the invention also includes a permanent monitoring device for the battery of the tag 2. Thus, as soon as the battery level reaches a minimum threshold, said monitoring device sends information to trigger the release and raise the tag 2 to the surface, so as to allow the owner of said tag 2 to recover it.
    According to a preferred embodiment, the humidity sensors and battery monitoring device are associated with indicator lights visible from outside the housing 3 of the tag 2 and indicating to the user the type of fault. Thus, said user immediately knows whether it is a water inlet or an improperly charged battery.
    With this configuration, the assembly comprising the beacon 2, its mooring line 4, the signaling element 7, the link 8 and the coupling device 9 does not have satisfactory stability, in particular when the sea currents exceed 5 knots. However, it is essential to guarantee the stability of the beacon 2, that is to say that the beacon 2 is always arranged so that the angle between an axis perpendicular to its water plane and the vertical is between - 10 and +10 degrees so that the radio-acoustic signal receiver of the housing 3 of the beacon 2 is always able to receive a signal emitted by a probe secured, for example, from a boat. Indeed, if the beacon 2 is incorrectly positioned, the receiver will no longer be able to receive a signal, and the owner of the beacon 2 will no longer be able to receive it.
    BIU001-FR-5_TEXTE DEPOSE_RG / GE
    - 13 recover and not more the associated fishing gear, which goes against FAO's requests to fight ghost fishing. To overcome this problem, it is clear that it is necessary to take into account many factors such as, for example, the position of the pivot point of the beacon 2 corresponding to the outlet 6 of the mooring line 4, the position of the 'hooking member 91 of the link 8, the drag exerted by the sea current on the beacon 2, the signaling element 7 and the link 8, or else the drag exerted by the sea current on the mooring 4.
    However, to allow this problem to be solved more simply, the security system includes a ballasted keel 11 extending under the beacon 2, the dimensions and position of which relate to the positions of the pivot points of the beacon 2 and of attachment of the link 8 make it possible to guarantee the stability of the tag 2 for sea currents of up to 7 knots, the keel 11 and the pivot point of the tag 2 and the hooking member 91 of the link 8 being arranged in the longitudinal plane of vertical symmetry of the housing 3 of the tag 2, the keel 11 being disposed between said pivot point of the tag 2 and the attachment member 91 of the link 8.
    Furthermore, with reference to FIGS. 2 and 5, in order to respond to regulations aimed at improving the signaling of floating objects at night to limit the risk of collision, the security system 1 comprises a flash lamp 12 fitted to the housing 3 of the tag 2.
    Said lamp 12 advantageously comprises at least one bulb 121 disposed under a transparent protective block 122 fixed on top of a body 123 containing a control unit 124 associated with a dim light sensor 125 and a pressure sensor 126 similar to the light sensor. pressure 93 of the coupling device previously described.
    BIU001-FR-5_TEXTE DEPOSE_RG / GE
    - 14 Thus, when it is dark, the lamp 12 will only flash if the beacon 2 is on the surface, that is to say that if the lamp 12 is out of the water.
    The lamp 12 can be powered by its own battery but is preferably powered by the battery associated with the release mechanism.
    Furthermore, the lamp 12 may include a communication antenna 127 compatible with the signals of the AIS network, the AIS (Automatic Identification System in English) being an automatic vessel identification system developed at the outset to be an anti-collision tool for the merchant ships, by allowing each of the ships present in its environment to "see" the others nearby. The communication antenna 127 is associated with a geolocation device, not shown, of the type
    GPS (Global
    Positioning
    System in English that 'we can translate into French by global location system), contained in box 3 of tag 2 and using the AIS network.
    Thus, with the geolocation device, if the beacon 2 rises to the surface, the owner of the beacon 2 is alerted and receives the position of said beacon 2 so that he can go there and retrieve it. Then, if the position of the beacon 2 varies, reflecting a collision or transhipment, the owner can also trace the latter to recover it or have it recovered by the competent authorities.
    In addition, the on-board AIS allows all equipped boats to identify, even in poor visibility, an obstacle which the beacon 2 can represent on the surface and therefore to avoid it.
    In addition, like boat radio stations, the beacon 2 is provided, in a regulatory manner, with an MMSI code (Maritime Mobile Service Identity in English), encoding all
    BIU001-FR-5_TEXTE DEPOSE_RG / GE
    - 15 digital selective calling equipment issued by the national frequency agencies. Thus, if the beacon 2 is carried by the boat of a third party, the two MMSI codes, that of the boat of the third party and that of the beacon 2, will be superimposed on the control screen of the owner of the beacon 2 and he can then immediately know the identification of the boat of the third party and call, if necessary, the police authorities to settle a possible dispute.
    In addition, with reference to FIG. 1, to reinforce the security of reception of a signal by the radio-acoustic signal receiver of the housing 3 of the beacon 2, the security system 1 comprises a probe 13 arranged to be secured , for example, of the hull of a boat 14 comprising a ceramic transducer of generally hemispherical shape allowing to have a propagation of the code trains in a hemispherical manner and at high rates, approximately one train every 200 milliseconds. Said probe 13 thus makes it possible to trigger the release mechanism and bring the beacon 2 to the surface whatever the position of the latter, the trim and the heel of the boat even in the event of heavy seas. Furthermore, this probe 13 makes it possible to increase the range of the signals transmitted and to significantly reduce the cavitation phenomena which appeared when the boat was sailing at a speed greater than 10 knots and which disturbed the signal transmitted.
    Furthermore, the power to be used to operate the probe 13 is such that, when said probe 13 is too close to the beacon, the transmitted signal becomes inaudible, a bit like the feedback phenomenon. This somewhat surprising phenomenon makes it possible not to have the risk of seeing a beacon rising under the boat carrying the probe 13 and of being damaged therein.
    The security system 1 may include a remote probe, not shown, which is of similar design to
    BIU001-FR-5_TEXTE DEPOSE_RG / GE
    - 16 the probe 13 previously described and which has two main functions. The first function allows the user to raise his beacons 2 in the event of damage to the probe 13 positioned under the boat. The second function concerns certain regions of the world. Indeed, in certain cases one can find strong thermoclines at sea which can greatly degrade the range of the signal emitted, to the point that in some rare cases the signal no longer passes at all. In such a case, however exceptional it may be, the user then connects the remote probe and lowers it a few meters above the level of the beacon 2 to be raised in order to be able to guarantee reception of the signal by the receiver of said beacon 2.
    Finally, the system of security 1 tag 2 submerged which has a coded specific and unique for 1 actuation of the tag 2 in surface by his owner
    is advantageously provided with an additional coding device allowing the actuation of the release of a batch of beacons 2 simultaneously from the submerged mechanism thanks to a unique code, called the "Pass" code.
    This allows the owner of a lot of tags 2 or the user approved by him, to avoid successively sending the specific code of each tag 2 constituting the lot to activate it, by going back
    All of the tags 2 suddenly on the surface.
    Incidentally, in addition to saving him a lot of time, the owner who would have omitted to note a particular code at the time of the immersion of the beacons 2 is assured to recover them all thanks to the code "Pass".
    Possibility of industrial application
    It is clear that the securing system 1 according to the invention is mainly used to secure the beacons 2 intended for submerged fishing gear. However,
    BIU001-FR-5_TEXTE DEPOSE_RG / GE
    - 17 the invention will advantageously find another application for securing beacons 2 intended for delimitation
    of an areamarines. sensitive, by example wreck or mines 5 Finally, he goes from self that examples of system of
    securing 1 according to the invention which have just been described are only specific illustrations, in no way limiting the invention.
