Braking device for a capsule at the end of a trajectory

The invention relates to a submarine braking system of a capsule (4) at the end of fast movement. The capsule glides by gravity along a cable (3) and finally hits in succession several disks (6 to 9) which start to glide and finally hit a hydraulic shock-absorbing system (10). The device procures an...

Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a submarine braking system of a capsule (4) at the end of fast movement. The capsule glides by gravity along a cable (3) and finally hits in succession several disks (6 to 9) which start to glide and finally hit a hydraulic shock-absorbing system (10). The device procures an efficient but calibrated braking of the of the capsule. The invention has application to the submarine research field.
