- Subclasses of USPC 114/271
- USPC 114: Ships
- USPC 114/271: Hull or hull attachment that derives lift or "alters trim" from fluid dynamic forces, e.g. "planing hull". Vessel hull or hull attachment which moves through or across the surface of a body of water in a way that generates force which tends either to raise the vessel higher in the water or to change the fore and aft drafts of the vessel relative to each other.
- USPC 114/272: Having airfoil: Device wherein the vessel is provided with a wing-like member mounted so as to coact with the atmosphere to generate a lifting force when the vessel is in motion, which tends to raise the vessel out of the water. The vessels found herein are always more or less waterborne and the airfoil merely tends to reduce the amount of hull below the waterline, thus, seaplanes and like aeronautic devices will generally not be found herein.
- USPC 114/273 Movably mounted: Device including means for adjustably supporting the wing-like member such that the direction the foil faces or the angle of attack of the foil can be altered; repositionable airfoil.
- USPC 114/274 Having hydrofoil: Hull with a submerged wing-like lift generating member. Subclasses 275-277 are about means to control foil or foil adjunct position in response to a sensed condition.
- USPC 114/275 With control means responsive to sensed condition: Device wherein means are provided to regulate the operation of a vessel in response to a signal generated by a means which measures or perceives some characteristic of the vessel or the environment within which it operates.
- USPC 114/276 Having feeler means: Signal generating means which has a member which rides on or adjacent the surface of the water and which gauges the relative distance between the vessel’s hull and the waters surface.
- USPC 114/277 Having liquid pressure sensor: Device wherein the control signal generating means responds to variations in the force per unit area of the water’s with which the vessel coacts and through which it moves.
- USPC 114/278 Ported strut or foil: Wing-like lift-generating member or a support for it with a fluid passage which begins or terminates in an aperture formed in the member or its support.
- USPC 114/279 With shock damping means: Device which absorbs or reduces impacts or vibration being transmitted to the vessel via the wing-like member or its support.
- USPC 114/280 Having means to tilt or reposition foil or foil adjunct: Wing-like member mounted so that at least or a portion of it may be moved. Below, 284-287, for means to reposition hull adjuncts other than hydrofoils to drive lift or alter trim.
- USPC 114/281 Steerable foil: Device wherein the direction in which the vessel moves can be altered by turning or otherwise repositioning the foil.
- USPC 114/282 Having means to move foil to a retracted nonuse position: Device wherein means are provided for shifting the foil between an inactive storage position and an active fluid coacting position.
- USPC 114/275 With control means responsive to sensed condition: Device wherein means are provided to regulate the operation of a vessel in response to a signal generated by a means which measures or perceives some characteristic of the vessel or the environment within which it operates.
- USPC 114/272: Having airfoil: Device wherein the vessel is provided with a wing-like member mounted so as to coact with the atmosphere to generate a lifting force when the vessel is in motion, which tends to raise the vessel out of the water. The vessels found herein are always more or less waterborne and the airfoil merely tends to reduce the amount of hull below the waterline, thus, seaplanes and like aeronautic devices will generally not be found herein.
- USPC 114/271: Hull or hull attachment that derives lift or "alters trim" from fluid dynamic forces, e.g. "planing hull". Vessel hull or hull attachment which moves through or across the surface of a body of water in a way that generates force which tends either to raise the vessel higher in the water or to change the fore and aft drafts of the vessel relative to each other.
