  • Device for mooring a craft to a docking point
    Patent number: 5711242
    Abstract: A device for mooring a craft to a docking point (2), including a guide rail (3) vertically attached to the docking point (2), and a prehensile assembly (4) secured to the craft and comprising jaws (6) for gripping the guide rail (3) when in their closed position. An actuator assembly (7) secured to the craft is designed to move the jaws (6) between the closed position and an open position in which the jaws (6) are spaced away from the guide rails (3). The device is useful for mooring a craft to a wharf or to another craft.
