A canting keel is a form of sailing ballast, suspended from a rigid canting strut beneath the boat, which can be swung to windward of a boat under sail, in order to counteract the heeling force of the sail. The canting keel must be able to pivot to either …

2004年3月9日 · A can’ting ballast keel introduces significant engineering complexity and cost increases compared to a conventional fixed-ballast keel. Multiple movable appendages create potential structural weaknesses, not only in the appendages …

2023年11月8日 · Canting keels 1) Full Keels. This particular keel by design covers at least half of the boat´s length. It contains a forward edge that bends upwards, while its aft edge usually links to a rudder. This type of keel has a key advantage of providing directional stability as well as relatively safe and strong grounding of the boat or ship.

For monohull sailors who want the ultimate high performance, the canting keel is the obvious choice. Pioneered by extreme racers and proven by offshore endurance events like the Vendee Globe, canting keels should be approaching the status of a mature technology. However, canting keel failures still occur too often for complacency.

2014年8月22日 · Canting Keel. Centerboard, swing keel, or keel, new monohull sail boat purchasers should at least consider vessels like Sadlers, Potters, Etaps and MacGregors that have solid flotation. They should also choose thin rather than wide monohulls.

A canting keel is a type of ballast unit used on sailing vessels. The unit will thrust toward the windward side of the vessel as the wind pushes the sail in the other direction, providing stability when the vessel is being propelled forward or executing turns.

In every kind of canting keel, the system is watertight: the central part (where the keel head moves) is flooded, but the cylinders work in a dry area guarantee by special custom

2007年1月1日 · 可倾龙骨 [191] 是一种在船体下部悬挂的可调节龙骨系统。 通常用于大型帆 船或赛艇上，可以通过液压或电动机械系统来改变龙骨的位置，从而使船体的重 心发生变化，以提高帆船的稳定性，从而在保证相同的回复力矩下降低所需的龙 骨重量提高无人帆船航速性能 [192] 。 然而，由于可倾龙骨重量较大、结构复杂， 在无人帆船上应用时会面临一些结构耐久性、强度和能耗方面的挑战。...

The document discusses canting keel systems designed and installed by Cariboni. It describes the key components of the systems including aluminum frames, self-aligning bearings, hydraulic cylinders, and control systems. Cariboni has designed systems with canting angles up to 55 degrees for boats ranging from 60-105 feet.

The canting and lifting keel system is composed by canting keel cylinders, a box which contains the fin, twin screws and a Magic Trim or a lifting cylinder. Safety: the canting system can operate in emergency with only one cylinder. The screws keep the keel in lifted position in case of lifting mechanism failure.
