ABSTRACT:
The trailer of the invention comprises a chassis comprising two vertical pivots (14a, 14b) disposed symmetrically with respect to its longitudinal axis (15), two retainer arms (13a, 13b) mounted for pivoting on the pivots (14a, 14b) and intended to receive the front part of the hull of the boat (10) therebetween, an actuating cylinder (16) connecting the arms (13a, 13b) together at their front part, two pad holders (17a, 17b) pivotably mounted at the rear ends of the retainer arms (13a, 13b) and gripper pads (19a, 19b) pivotably mounted on the pad holders (17a, 17b). The retainer arms (13a, 13b) comprise identical toothed sectors (20a, 20b) centered on the pivots (14a, 14b) of the chassis and whose teeth are in engagement along the longitudinal axis (15) thereof. Furthermore, the pad holders (17b, 17 b) are pivotably connected to auxiliary arms (21a, 21b) mounted for pivoting on the pivots (14a, 14b) of the chassis, these auxiliary arms comprising in their turn identical toothed sectors centered on the pivots (14b, 14b) of the chassis and whose teeth are also in engagement along the longitudinal axis (15) thereof.
The system of arms 12 provides perfect centering of the boat 10 on the trailer, which avoids a poor distribution of the load thereon and eliminates risks of overturning.
