  • Patent number: 9187162
    Abstract: An air intake device for a submarine comprises a first fixed member connected to the submarine hull and a second member which is telescopically movable relative to the first member to rise up with an upper end of it above the water's surface to allow air to be taken in from the atmosphere during navigation of the submarine at periscope depth, the movable member mounting at its upper end a radar device designed to emerge from the water together with the selfsame movable member.

  • Patent number: 8960118
    Abstract: A lifting apparatus for devices used for detection, observation, air intake or communication on a submarine comprises a first movable mounting unit and a second movable mounting unit equipped at the top of them with at least one detection or communication device and at least one actuator associated with the first movable mounting unit and/or with the second movable mounting unit to move them along a main direction of movement. The apparatus further comprises a supporting member extending along the main direction and interposed between the first movable mounting unit and the second movable mounting unit and also having a pair of guides, each extending along the main direction and slidably coupled to a respective movable mounting unit to guide its movement along the selfsame main direction.
