AUTOMOTIVE HANDLING MACHINE LIKELY TO EVOLVE ON WATER, ON EARTH AND / OR ON MARSHAL GROUND

摘要

The invention relates to a movable maritime transport apparatus. It has two elongated, slim hulls which are arranged essentially parallel and symmetrically to a vertical longitudinal centre plane, are equipped with propulsion means or control means and are rigidly connected to one another in the area of one of their ends. They form between them a lane (22) open in the area of the hull ends not connected to one another and are provided with complementary lifting devices (23-28) which are suitable for carrying a load between the two hulls. In a particular embodiment, the two hulls (31, 32) have effective buoyancy means due to the generation of an air cushion. The buoyancy means enable the apparatus to move on water, land and/or marshland. IMAGE
