  • Patent number: 9751603
    Abstract: Disclosed are a propulsion device for a ship and a ship having the same. The propulsion device may include a rotational shaft, a rear propeller fixed to the rotational shaft, a front propeller rotatably supported by the drive shaft in front of the rear propeller, a counter rotation unit disposed in an installation space of a stern of a ship body and including a plurality of gears configured to reverse rotation of the rotational shaft and transmit the reversed rotation to the front propeller and a gear box configured to receive the plurality of gears, a coupling unit configured to separably connect the rotational shaft with the counter rotation unit and cut off power transmission from the rotational shaft to the counter rotation unit upon disconnection therebetween, and a rotation preventing unit configured to prevent rotation of the front propeller when the coupling unit is separated.

  • Patent number: 9694886
    Abstract: Provided is a driving apparatus of a variable pitch propeller having blades, each of which has a pitch angle changed in a rotational direction of a propeller shaft, and a pitch adjuster for adjusting the pitch angle. The pitch adjuster includes blade actuating shafts that are connected to eccentric stubs coupled to lower ends of the blades and are disposed inside the propeller shaft so as to allow linear reciprocation and to push or pull the eccentric stubs, and a power converter that converts a rotating motion of the propeller shaft into a linearly reciprocating motion of the blade actuating shafts.

  • Patent number: 7497289
    Abstract: A structure of a carrier is disclosed. The structure includes an upper frame; side frames in a pair formed downwardly from both sides of the upper frame; and center frames, each of which has one end connected to the central portion of the upper frame and the other end slantingly connected to the corresponding one of the side frames. Since the center frames are slantingly installed and support the upper frame and the side frames, the structure of the carrier has reduced weight and enables the maintenance of sufficient rigidity.
