EQUIPMENT FOR SUBMERSIBLE Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC F41H7/03 B60F3/00 

FIELD: transport.

SUBSTANCE: claimed equipment comprises air feed pipe composed of the sections and secured at the tank turret body to feed air for the crew and sealed tank engine operation in deep water. Said pipe is equipped with section control mechanism. Note here that some sections are flexible. The portion of section vertical control mechanism is composed of two worm gears with shifted rotational axes while 1^st gear worm axis is aligned with the axis of section rotation about horizontal axis. Said worm gearing is configured for self-braking. The worm is magnetized in radial direction. The 1^st gear worm can be hollow. Some control mechanism member can be composed of the chain gearing. Some section control mechanism member in horizontal plane is composed of the 3^rd gear worm with rotational axis aligned with those of the 2^nd and 3^rd gears. Some portion is composed by the antenna. Control mechanism actuators are mounted outside said sections.

EFFECT: perfected performances due to application of the section position control mechanism.
