FIELD: shipbuilding of tracked bladed running gear of surface and submarine ships. SUBSTANCE: running gear has tracks made from bearing plates with blade in center for floating. Tracks may reciprocate . Running gear is also provided with steel beams with C-shaped cuts directed towards each other; slots of these beams are used for receiving the rollers or wheels provided with ball bearings. Tracked bladed running gear has two pairs of vertical interconnected oval steel sheets. Running gear is supported by these sheets. Sheets are interconnected by means of strips; they are also rigidly connected with side and inner structural members of ship. Beams are located above these sheets. Used as axles of above-mentioned rollers are cylindrical projections of bearing plate spades turned vertically downward. Plate has tetragonal shape. Bade of running gear be may be provided with strengthening struts at the front and at the rear. Bearing plates may be articulated together. Blade may be overlapped plate with additional stiffeners for motion both on surface of water and under water, over bottom of water basin and on land. Tetragonal plates be articulated Together. Running gear may be enclosed in casing whose lower shear may be located at one level with lower row of bearing plates. Running gear may of ladder type. EFFECT: improved service characteristics of ships. 5 cl, 36 dwg
