ABSTRACT:
A ship's docking plant includes a floating platform, partly enclosing a vertically displaceable docking member, providing large working areas around the same, when in raised position. The docking member is retained in relation to the platform by a vertical guide means at the inward, transverse side of the docking member, said guide means permitting the docking member to obtain various angular positions with respect to a horizontal plane, in the longitudinal, as well as in the transverse direction. The docking member is, along its longitudinal sides, connected to the platform by means of reversible chain winches, permitting an adjustment of the position of the docking member in relation to a horizontal plane, when lowered down.
