Ship rigging work is work with cables performed in the manufacture and repair of rigging and various items of ship equipment.

It consists of the following simple tools and devices (Fig. 1):

• A pile is a wooden or steel cone-shaped rod of a straight or curved shape, used to separate and punch strands in cables;
• Draek - wooden block circular cross-section, thinning from the middle to the ends, is used for tightening (pulling out) cables and separating strands;
• Mushkel - wooden hammer, designed to align and seal the strands after the repair of the cable;
• Half-mushkel - a wooden hammer with a longitudinal bale on the striker, used to tension the cage when the cable is caged;
• Spatula - wooden or metal with a hole in the middle for threading the cage, used instead of a half-mushkel when staking the cable;
• Trepalo - a narrow board, pointed at the end, used in the manufacture of mats.

In addition to the listed tools, you must have:

• Chisels;
• Vise;
• Sledgehammer cutting pliers, etc.

Marks and benzels

Under the brand understand the dressing of the cable to seal its ends and secure the unopened part. Benzel - joint dressing of two cables for connection. For the imposition of marobenzels, sailing threads-kabolkas, thin vegetable threads (lines) and wire are used.

Depending on the method of imposition, the brand (Fig. 2) can be:

• Simple;
• Self-tightening;
• With a snake;
• With punch.

In order to get a simple brand, one end of the line is laid along the cable in the form of some cover with hoses, around the cable. The free end of the line is threaded into the loop, with its help it is tightened under the hose, after which the ends of the line are cut short.

a - simple;
b - self-tightening;
in - with a snake;
g - with a punch

When applying a self-tightening mark, one end of the line is laid along the cable, covered with five or six hoses, and then the other end of the line is laid along the cable, which is also covered with hoses. The slack formed during the process is selected, and the ends of the line are cut off.

A brand with a snake is a pro brand, supplemented with a snake, brand hoses are placed, it increases its strength. You can punch the butt end of the line between the strands of the cable alternately on each side. Such a mark is called a punched mark.

The most common types of benzels (Fig. 3) are:

• half-benzel;
• Straight benzel;
• Benzel with a roof and a stopper.

A semi-benzel is a simple stamp laid on two cables running side by side. To increase the strength, the semi-benzel can be made with a snake.

Rice. 3 Benzels
a - semi-benzel;
b - straight;
in - with a roof;
g - stopper

Straight (round) benzelle has hoses superimposed in two layers. In this case, the free end of the line under the hoses is pulled using a pre-laid conductor loop.

When applying a benzel with a roof, the end of the line is fixed with a noose on one of the cables and 10-15 hoses are applied to the cables. Then the benzel is covered, for which the line is drawn twice between the cables around the benzel hoses. The free end of the line is attached to the hoses with bayonets and cut short.

The lock is performed in the same way as a benzel with a roof, with the only difference being that the hoses are wrapped around both cables with a figure eight. In those cases when, when applying a stopper, the selected tight cables do not fit together, the stopper is called a flat benzel.

Trenching and cageing

The cables are trembled to level their surface so that water does not accumulate in the recesses between the strands. To do this, the cable in the places of the depressions between the strands is wrapped around with trinity, which is used as a resinous shkimushgar, a tench or a thin cable.

For trenching, the cable is stretched tight with the help of hoists and covered tree resin. Friction, the number of which should be equal to the number of cable strands, is fixed in the recess between the cable strands. In order for the friction to evenly and tightly fill the gaps between the strands, it is fitted (driven) with the help of a drake and a small line that tightly wraps around the cable (Fig. 4, A).

Rice. 4 Trenching and cageing of the cable
a - tight friction;
b - the imposition of kletneviny;
c - imposition of cage

By rotating the line around the cable in the direction of its descent, the indentation of friction and its tension are achieved. Having passed in this way with a line along the entire cable, the slack friction is driven to one end, where the friction is tightened by hand and punched into the cable. If the trimmed cable is not supposed to be caged, the friction is strengthened by imposing marks with snakes.

Cage the cables to protect them from chafing. For this, the trimmed cable is wrapped in cage (Fig. 4, b), and then a cage is applied (Fig. 4, V). Kletnevin is made from old canvas, cut into ribbons, the width of which is slightly less than the circumference of the cable. It is necessary to cut the canvas into ribbons not along the base, but at a certain angle, so that the edges of the ribbons do not spread. Then the tapes are pitched and wound into a skein.

As a cage use:

• Shkimushgar;
• Thin line;
• Soft tinned wire and spiral cable.

The cable to be caged is pulled tight and covered with tree resin. After that, in the direction of the twist, it is wrapped with cellar in such a way that each subsequent hose slightly overlaps the previous one. The end of the cage is fixed with a temporary mark on the cable in the opposite direction, that is, against the descent, the cage is applied with the help of a half-mushkel, and on thin cables - with the help of a rigging blade. This ensures the imposition of the cage with dense, even hoses. The last 5, 6 hoses are surrounded with some slack, and the ship's end of the cage is held under them, after which the hose is tightened.

Splashes are used for splicing two cables of the same diameter without a knot. Depending on the method of execution, splashes are short and long (accelerating). In order to get a short mold (Fig. 5, A), at some distance from the ends, temporary marks are applied to the cables, after which the cables are unraveled into strands, the ends of which are also marked. Prepared cables are shifted close to each other so that each strand of one cable is between two adjacent strands of another.

Rice. 5 Gossip
a - short;
b - long,
1 - on a vegetable cable,
2 - on a steel cable

The cables are spliced ​​by punching, i.e., the strands of one cable are passed under the strands of another. The punching of the strands is carried out according to the rule through one under one against the descent of the cable. Thus, when punching, each running strand of one cable must be superimposed on the nearest root strand of the second cable and passed with a pile under its next strand. Similarly, the running strands of the second cable are punched.

The strength of the short splice will be ensured if the strands break through 3 times in each direction. At the same time, in order to gradually reduce the thickness of the splice, the third punching is carried out with strands from which half of the cables are cut.

In the same way, a short splice is obtained on a steel cable. The only difference is that the strands are pierced according to the rule "through one under two against the descent of the cable". The number of punches in this case increases to five, of which the last two are performed with an incomplete number of wires in the strands. When splicing steel cables, the cores are cut out.

The short splice has good strength, but thickens the cable significantly, so it cannot be used on cables that must pass through sheaves of pulleys.

Splicing of cables with a long (accelerating) splice (Fig. 5, b) are produced not by punching strands, but only by wrapping them around the cable. Therefore, in the manufacture of a long splice, the ends of the cables must unravel to a greater length.

The cables prepared for splicing are brought together, as in the manufacture of a short splice. After that, a temporary mark is removed on one of the cables and one of its strands is woven out, and a strand of the second cable is laid in its place. When the input strand has a small end left, it is wrapped clockwise around the output strand and tightened with a knot. After that, the running ends 1 time make their way under the root strand. In the same way, a strand of the first cable is inserted into the second cable. Splicing of the third pair of strands is carried out directly at the junction of the cables.

Having finished making a long splice, the extra ends of the strands are cut off and marks are applied to the places where the strands are spliced.

In the manufacture of an accelerating splash on a six-strand steel cable, three strands of another cable are inserted into each of them. Each strand should be entered at a different length so that the places of their fastening are evenly distributed along the entire length of the splash. The ends of the oncoming strands are fastened with a half-knot, and then they are punched into the cable and chopped off. Soft wire stamps are applied at the place of fastenings.

A long splice is used for splicing running rigging cables, since it almost does not thicken at the splicing point, therefore it is very convenient for cables passing through pulleys of blocks. Its disadvantage is low strength.

Ogony - loops made at the end or in the middle of the cable. They are used for fastening cables on spars or bollards, as well as for connecting cables with brackets.

More reliable are fires obtained by splicing cables.

Depending on the purpose and method of termination, fires are divided into:

• simple;
• Dutch;
• Split and horseshoe-shaped.

To get a simple fire (Fig. 6, A) the end of the cable is unraveled into strands, as in the manufacture of a short splash. After that, the cable is laid in the form of a loop the right sizes and each of the free strands is punched into the cable to the rule through one under one against the descent of the cable. A total of three or four punches are made. In this case, the latter is performed with strands with an incomplete number of cables.

Rice. 6 Ogony
a - simple;
b - horseshoe;
c - Dutch;
g - cutting

In the manufacture of the Dutch fire, one strand is removed from the end of the cable, and the rest are laid in the form of a loop. Then the free strand is inserted into its place in the cable towards the other two. The ends of all strands are loosened into heels, laid along the cable and marks are applied.

A split and horseshoe-shaped fire is made not at the end, but in the middle of the cable. To get a split fire, the ends of the two cables are unraveled into strands and laid so that the cables overlap each other somewhat. After that, the strands of the left cable are punched into the right cable, and the right - into the left. To make a horseshoe-shaped fire, the cable is bent in the right place and strands of a short piece of the cable of the same thickness are splashed into both of its branches at a certain distance from the bend.

To protect the cables from sharp breaks and chafing, thimbles are often inserted into the fires. Fire with a thimble (Fig. 7, A) are made in the same way as a simple fire, but when performing preparatory operations, the cable is not simply laid in the form of a loop, but put into a thimble pile and fastened with a line or shkimushgar. After finishing work, the tench or shkimushgar is removed.

Rice. 7 Methods for securing the ends of the ropes
a - fire with a thimble;
b - clips;
in - end clips

Fires on steel cables can also be made by splicing. There are several ways to punch and secure the cable, but they are all laborious. IN Lately more and more widely used is the method of fastening the cables with the help of clamps, with which the running end of the cable is pressed against the root (Fig. 7, b).

Eyes with thimble on steel cables can also be replaced with end clips (Fig. 7, V), for fixing which, the end of the cable, loosened into separate wires, is inserted into the hole and the cavity of the clip is filled with high-quality technical or refined zinc, heated to a temperature of 450-470 ° C.

Buttons and Musings

Knop is called special knot(thickening) at the end of the vegetable cable. The same thickening in the middle of the cable is called musing. Knops fix and hold the root end of the cable and protect its ends from unraveling. Musings serve as supports for arms and legs when climbing a rope. According to the purpose and method of embedding, the knobs (Fig. 8) are divided into simple, without punching, locking, lanyard, etc.

For the manufacture of a knop, the cable is unraveled into strands up to a mark previously applied at a certain distance from the end of the cable. Then the cable is placed vertically so that the loose strands hang down freely. The strands are interlaced in such a way that each of them passes from top to bottom through the loop formed by the adjacent strand.

Rice. 8 Buttons
a - a cross;
b - semi-wheel;
c - simple;
g - without punching;
d - lanyard;
e - lock

They get a small button called a cross (Fig. 8, A). The cross is also integral part stop button. Another component of the knobs is a semi-wheel (Fig. 8, b). To obtain it, the strand is wrapped counterclockwise a third of a turn around the cable and passed from bottom to top into the loop formed by the adjacent strand.

A simple button (Fig. 8, V) consists of two semi-wheels. To form the second semi-wheel, each strand is again wrapped counterclockwise for a third of a turn around the cable and passed from bottom to top into the loop formed by the next strand. After that, the strands are covered and tied with a brand over the button.

When making a button without punching (Fig. 8, G) each strand is wrapped counterclockwise for a full turn around the cable and passed from bottom to top into the loop formed by the same strand. Then the strands are tightened and fastened over the button with a brand.

Lanyard button (Fig. 8, d) will be obtained if each strand is wrapped around the cable counterclockwise by two-thirds of a turn, while overlapping the nearest strand and passing from bottom to top into the loop of the next strand. In addition to this, strands are pierced, for which each of them is carried out parallel to its already braided part and pierced under the strands crossing it.

The first stage in the manufacture of a stop knob (Fig. 8, e) - getting a semi-wheel. Then the strands are tightened and interlaced in the form of a cross and pierced. To do this, each strand is first carried out parallel to the hoses of the half-wheel and punched from the bottom up into the loop of the adjacent strand, and then parallel to the hoses of the cross.

To make a musing (Fig. 9), three strands are inserted into the cable, for which each of them is punched under one of the strands of the cable and passed under it up to half of its length. The strands introduced into the cable are intertwined into a semi-wheel of six strands, first in a counterclockwise direction, and then in a clockwise direction.

a - without braid;
b - with a braid

The final part of the work is punching strands. At the same time, each strand is carried out parallel to itself and punched into the loops of the lower and upper semi-wheels. To increase the size of the mousings and to give them a more beautiful and comfortable look, they are braided.

6.1. Tools and fixtures for rigging

Lifting works are carried out to repair and maintain running and standing rigging, towing, mooring and other types of equipment on the upper deck of ships. These works include: repairing cables and connecting them with knots, splicing (splashing) cables, sealing knobs and musings, making fires, etc. Timely and skillful rigging helps to increase the service life of ship equipment. The good condition of the ship's rigging ensures the successful completion of various work on the upper deck and the safety of personnel. The set of rigging tools and fixtures includes the following simple devices (Fig. 6.1).

Rice. 6.1. Rigging tools and fixtures:
1 - wooden pile; 2 - greasy piles; 3 - draek; 4 - muskel; 5 - mallet; 6 - half-mushkel; 7 - lifting blade; 8 - brand; 9 - cable breaking machine; 10 - rigging vise; 11 - reed and rattle

Wooden and steel piles. Wooden piles are made in the form of a cone from strong wood (hornbeam, maple, beech, oak) and are used when working with plant and synthetic cables for punching and separating cable strands, making splices, fires, knobs and musings. When working with steel cables, metal piles made of carbon steel are used. They are straight and curved, flat and round. When working with thick steel cables, flat piles are used, as they spread the strands of the punched cable wider.

The drake is made of hard wood and is used for hand-tightening (pulling out) a line, cable or wire, when applying benzels and stamps, treading and other works. In the middle thickened part of the dray there is a bale for a line.

Mushkel - a wooden hammer that serves to align the strands of the cable that have deformed during various works, to knock over plant cables during winding, to pin the strands after punching when making splashes, fires, etc. The striker of the mushkel is made of hard rock wood, handle - birch.

K and i and k a - a large rectangular wooden hammer with a long handle. It is used when working with steel cables (like a mallet) so as not to damage the galvanization of its wires.

Half-mushkel - a wooden mallet of small size with a notch (bale) along the striker, with which the half-mushkel is superimposed on the cable. It is used when imposing benzels and caged cables.

The shovel is wooden or steel. It is used respectively for work with vegetable or steel cables when applying marks, benzels and cable cages.

Marochnitsa - a wooden tool for imposing benzels and stamps.

The breaking cable machine is used to bring two cables close together in the manufacture of benzels and the termination of fires. The machine consists of guide rods, movable blocks and a clamping screw.

The rigging vise is used for making eyelets with thimbles, slinging blocks, splicing cables, etc. The vise has three sliding blocks that move along the guides and allow you to work with cables of any diameter .

Byrda and trepalo. Berda - a wooden quadrangular frame with a shkimushgar or thin wooden planks stretched between the upper and lower planks, each of which has a point. Trepalo - a board up to 2 m long with one pointed edge. Reeds and ruffles are used to make woven mats.

In addition to the listed tools, when carrying out rigging work, it is necessary to have axes, handbrakes, sledgehammers, chisels, wire cutters, boatswain's knives, as well as a supply of shikmushki, canvas and wood resin.

Pile and rigging wrench

The first folding models were quite bulky - when folded, the length reached 100 mm. Blade shape is straight. However, this design was justified for the main function of the knife - cutting the cable. If the end was to be cut out of the bay, then in the place where it was planned to make an incision, two marks were superimposed, and the cable was cut between them. If the cable was thick enough, then it was chopped in the literal sense: they put a knife blade on it and struck its butt with a mallet - a wooden mallet. The sailing fleet was rapidly becoming a thing of the past, and yachting flourished, evolving into entertainment for wealthy gentlemen. Therefore, over time, the knife has become more miniature and compact.

Often it was supplemented with another folding object - a pile for punching cable strands and other rigging. Early models had a pile fixed in the manner of a modern awl and corkscrew - in the middle part of the handle. However, knives with an end arrangement of this tool have become much more widespread. At one end with the pile there was also a swivel: a safety line was attached to it so as not to “miss” the knife overboard during excitement. Such knives were established in the navy by the middle of the 19th century. If the pile did not have a lock, then the model was called a “yachtsman’s knife”, and if it was blocked by a spring in the open position, then the model was considered professional - “rigging”.

With the help of a pile, the strands of the cable are pushed apart, and also the protracted knots are untied. In addition to folding piles of multi-subject marine knives, piles are also made as a separate tool - made of wood and steel. A wooden pile made of ash or oak is used to work with plant cables. The steel pile has a pointed end with an oval section, which makes it easier to work with a steel cable. Inserted between the strands and turned on edge, it makes it easier to break through the running strands. Piles sometimes have a hole in their thick end. A line is threaded through it, which, when working on a mast or with a thick cable, when you have to forcefully pull the pile out from under the strand, is put on your hand. Depending on the thickness of the cable, the size of the pile also changes: the thicker the cable, the larger it is. Some piles for steel cable have a groove at the end for the passage of a strand of cable in the manufacture of splices and ogons.

Less commonly, a folding knife had a special folding key for rigging brackets. Like a pile, it can also be performed as a separate tool. The blocks and the root ends of the gear are most often attached to the shells screwed to the deck using rigging brackets. Staples are made of galvanized iron or bronze, the ends of which are connected with a threaded bolt or a smooth finger. Staples are important detail used on sailing ships in a wide variety of options and different sizes. It is possible to fasten tackle to a spar or sail without a rigging bracket - using a marine knot. But it is preferable to do it all the same with a bracket.

When rigging, use the following special tool ( rice. 58).

Svayka- the main rigging tool; with the help of a pile, the strands of the cable are pushed apart, and also the protracted knots are untied. Piles are wooden and steel. A wooden pile is used to work with vegetable cables. It is made of ash or oak and is a cone-shaped pointed rod. The steel pile has a pointed end with an oval section, which makes it easier to work with a steel cable. Inserted between the strands and turned on edge, it makes it easier to break through the running strands. The piles have a hole in their thick end. A line is threaded through it, which, when working on a mast or with a thick cable, when you have to forcefully pull the pile out from under the strand, is put on your hand.

Depending on the thickness of the cable, the size of the pile also changes: the thicker the cable, the larger it is. Some piles for steel cable have a groove at the end for the passage of a strand of cable in the manufacture of splices and ogons. For work with thin steel cables, piles made of cut heartwood are convenient. acute angle steel tube mounted in a wooden handle.

Chisel and hammer- are used for cutting a steel cable or its strands.

Heaver- a fusiform rod made of oak or ash with a bale for a sling. It is used when fitting (dressing) benzels, cages, etc.

Mushkel- wooden mallet cylindrical shape with a long handle. Serves for making a rope after making splices and fires.

Half-mushkel- differs from the mallet in a short handle and a bale on the working part. Used for celling.

Knife It is mainly used for cutting plant cable and steel cores. It should only be foldable. This indispensable tool for the yachtsman, especially in emergency cases.

Gardaman or plane tree- a sailing thimble having a lead plate to push the needle through when sewing or repairing sails. Put it on the palm of your right hand.

Sailing needles unlike ordinary, sewing ones, they have a trihedral sharpening.

Pliers, pliers they are not directly related to the rigging tool, but are useful when working with a steel cable.

Knots

Knots serve for temporary tying of plant cables, fastening of mooring lines or tugs and other ship work when you have to deal with cables. Characteristics marine knots - reliability, relative ease of knitting, the ability of many of them not to tighten under load and can be easily distributed even when wet.

In maritime affairs, each node has a very specific purpose. Therefore, a yachtsman must not only be able to knit this or that knot (even in the dark), but also know firmly in which case to use it and how to quickly distribute it.

All nodes can be divided into three main groups. The first group includes knots for tying two ends together; the second unites the nodes used in mooring and towing; the third is special-purpose nodes (for lifting a person onto a mast, etc.). To connect the two ends, the following knots are used ( rice. 59).

straight knot designed for tying cables or gear of approximately the same thickness with little traction. A knot is considered correct when the ends of each cable run parallel and together, and the root ends are directed directly opposite each other.

reef knot used when tying reef-shtertov. It knits like a straight knot, but with a loop formed by the running end, put into reverse side. It spreads easily and quickly.

clew knot used when tying cables of the same thickness, one of which has a point. It is knitted like a straight knot, but the running end does not go back to the point, but is passed under the root end and clamped by it.

Bramstring knot it is used in the same cases as the clew, but it is more reliable and has a double coverage of the point: the running end is passed twice under the root.

flat knot used to connect two cables of different thicknesses. On the running ends of both cables, after the knot is tied, benzels are applied, otherwise it will drag on.

For mooring for piles, bollards and eyebolts, as well as for towing, the following knots are used ( rice. 60).

Bayonet- the simplest knot used when attaching mooring lines. The running end of the cable should be tacked to the main pile.

Bayonet with two hoses used for the same purposes, but when a more secure fastening is needed. It differs from the bayonet in that the running end is wrapped around or pulled into the eye twice, thus forming two hoses.

Fishing bayonet knitted for staples of anchors. It looks like a bayonet with two hoses, but the second hose is captured by the first half-bayonet.

Fisherman's fire- a node that replaces the usual fire.

Towing knot serves to fasten the towing cable on the towed yacht to the bit or mast. For all its simplicity, it is very reliable and quickly given even on the go. The running end of the tug is wrapped around the mast, covers the root end with a hose and wraps around the mast again in the same direction. Then, wrapping the running end around the root several times, grab it to the root.
