Title:
BARGE FOR REDUCING EFFECT OF WATER CURRENTS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2023/059032
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a barge for reducing the effect of water currents, the barge comprising: a floating hull; and a plurality of buoyancy steering blades which are submerged in water and support the floating hull so that the floating hull floats above the surface of the water, and which can rotate about a direction perpendicular to the surface of the water. At least one pair of buoyancy steering blades among the plurality of buoyancy steering blades are provided at symmetrical positions in at least one of the length or width direction of the floating hull. Accordingly, the floating hull floats completely above the surface of the water and is completely unaffected by water currents, and thus can navigate efficiently with minimal thrust loss and easily and stably maintain anchoring position while anchored.
