Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention is generally directed to supplementing watercraft with a storage system that furthers convenience and safety during operation of the watercraft. More specifically, the watercraft storage system fully integrates within the structure of the watercraft without unduly compromising its structural integrity and offers convenient and ready access to stowed contents by way of automated-controlled components.


BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Recreational boating is a popular pastime in many parts of the world. Some seek operation of watercraft on a body of water for the unrestricted nature and freedoms of traveling on the open waters. Some say it can engage one to relax and free the mind. On the other end of the spectrum, watercraft may be associated with a work function, such as those that are categorically directed to patrolling the waterways for monitoring nature's resources or policing other operational watercraft, for example. Regardless of the primary purpose of their intended use, whether it be recreational or work-functional, most types of watercraft offer little to no spatial area for accommodating storage of contents onboard, particularly larger, heavily-weighted items such as full-sized coolers and the like. Although efforts have been made in the art toward devising storage space within the limited confines of the watercraft, they may not necessarily or always offer ample storage capacity and/or convenient accessibility.


For example, some watercraft may make limited use of the bow for storage, since in most cases is ineffectual for any other purpose but perhaps small gear such as an anchor, fishing equipment and the like, while the port side and starboard may integrate wall panels to form walled cavities that may ultimately serve as compartmentalized storage spaces, albeit generally being very limited at best in terms of spatial capacity for larger, heavily-weighted items. In yet other aspects of forming storage space, the space under seats or the seat itself may equally accommodate or suffice as adequate storage space to some extent, but may perhaps lend to disruption to the seat's occupant when access to stowed content is needed or desirable from time to time, possibly compromising one's safety if the watercraft is in moving operation.


Accordingly, there remains a need for a simple, yet cost effective watercraft storage system that fully integrates within the structure of the watercraft and possesses sufficient functionality to stow larger items or heavily-weighted content that may otherwise lack accommodation within the context of dedicated storage space generally devised and recognized in the art to date for watercraft.


BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

In order to overcome the numerous drawbacks apparent in the prior art, a watercraft storage system has been devised for structural integration within the varied forms of watercraft offered in the art, such as pleasure, recreational watercraft in the nature of pontoons, hulled boats and the like.


It is an object of the present invention to provide a watercraft storage system that incorporates within its structure automated-controlled components to effect ready retrieval of and convenient access to stowed items or content.


It is a further object of the present invention to provide a watercraft storage system that is relatively simple in terms of design and construction and makes further or expanded use of the floats or tubes associated with pontoons or hulls of hulled boats, for example.


It is yet another object of the present invention to provide a watercraft storage system that exist below the floorboard of the watercraft insofar to maintain continuity and unrestricted use of the walkways defined within the watercraft's designed layout.


It is a further object of the present invention to provide a watercraft storage system that fulfills to accommodate storage of and offer ready access to heavily-weighted stowed items or content that may otherwise require occupation of the limited space relatively offered about the watercraft's floorboard.


It is yet a further object of the present invention to provide a watercraft storage system that considers safety in regard to the watercraft's occupants by mitigating occurrences of injury in situations of retrieving and lifting heavily-weighted, stowed items from time to time during watercraft operation.


In accordance with the present invention a watercraft storage system has been devised for use with varied forms of watercraft having a floorboard, the watercraft storage system in particular comprising a suspendable shelf having a flange for attaching to a select portion of the floorboard and housing a scissor lift having an upper platform connecting to a base platform by way of a pair of moveable supports, the scissor lift further having a linear actuator for raising and lowering the upper platform relatively above the base platform to respectively receive and store items within a containment enclosure largely formed by a pair of end caps adaptably attaching to the suspendable shelf, wherein the containment enclosure is made accessible by way an accessible panel fitted within a panel frame integrated into the floorboard, particularly as such to reside relatively flush therewith to yield continuity of the walkways particularly associated with the watercraft's designed layout.


Other objects, features, and advantages of the present invention will become apparent in the following detailed description of the preferred embodiments thereof when read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in which like reference numerals depict the same parts in the various views.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

While this invention is susceptible of being embodied in many different forms, the preferred embodiment of the invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings and described in detail hereinafter with the understanding that the present disclosure purposefully exemplifies the principles of the present invention and is not intended to unduly limit the invention to the embodiments illustrated and presented herein. The present invention has particular utility as a watercraft storage system that is structurally adaptive to varied forms of watercraft and offers to accommodate storage of heavily-weighted content that may otherwise require placement relatively about the watercraft's spatially-limited floorboard.


Referring now to FIG. 1, there is shown generally at 10 a watercraft storage system comprising a scissor lift 12 housed within a containment enclosure 14 formed in part by a suspendable shelf 16 largely extending downwardly from and connecting to a floorboard 18 commonly associated with watercraft 20. It is understood within the context of this disclosure that the watercraft storage system may be incorporated within varied forms of watercraft that structurally include a floorboard 18 supported by cross beams 18a and like structure to form a bottom space 18b thereunder for accommodating the spatial requirements of the suspendable shelf, such as within a float 22 of a pontoon or a hull of a boat or ship. For example, FIGS. 2 and 3 exemplify typical placement of the watercraft storage system 10 within the spatial confines of the bottom space offered interiorly within a centralized float 22 associated with a pontoon having a tri-float configuration.


As generally shown in FIGS. 4-9, the scissor lift 12 is preferentially configured with a base platform 24 connecting to an upper platform 26 by way of a pair of moveable supports 28. It is understood that additional pairs of moveable supports in a connective stacked arrangement may be utilized to establish an increased range of height for some applications requiring enhanced storage capacity.


In reference to FIGS. 4 and 6, each pair of moveable supports comprises an innermost cross member 30 and an outermost cross member 32 with each respectively having a midpoint position 30a, 32a engaging a supportive cross rod 34. In particular, the midpoint position 30a of each of the innermost cross members is generally shown in FIG. 6 as being fixedly attached to the supportive cross rod, whereas the midpoint position 32a of each of the outermost cross members 32 pivotally connect to the supportive cross rod and generally accommodate a bushing 36 press-fitted into an aperture 38 extending through the outermost cross member to assist in unrestricted rotation thereabout.


As further depicted in FIGS. 6 and 7, the innermost and outermost cross members each comprise a first end 30b, 32b being respectively attached to a lower end shaft 40 and an upper end shaft 42 and a second end 30c, 32c being respectively attached to an upper forward shaft 44 and a lower forward shaft 46. To enable rotation of the upper and lower end shafts that consequently contribute in raising and lowering the upper platform, ends 42a of the upper end shaft 42 are generally shown in FIG. 7 as being slidably fitted into cylindrical bores 48a associated with a pair of downward mounts 48 connecting to and extending downwardly from the upper platform 26, whereas ends 40a of the lower end shaft 40 are generally shown therein as being slidably fitted into cylindrical bores 50a associated with a pair of upward mounts 50 connecting to and extending upwardly from the base platform 24. To facilitate ease by which the upper and lower end shafts rotate within the cylindrical bores while mitigating occurrences of premature wear thereat, each cylindrical bore as associated with the downward and upward mounts is preferentially press-fitted with a bushing 48b, 50b of the type commonly available in the art for such applications. Comparatively, ends 44a, 46a of the upper and lower forward shafts each receive a wheel 52 that functionally fulfill to roll and traverse respectively about a bottom side 26a of a framed portion 26b of the upper platform 26 and a top side 24a of a framed portion 24b of the base platform 24 simultaneously while the upper platform vertically travels away from and moves toward the base platform during operation. Although a variety of wheels available in the art may adequately function in this regard, the present invention preferably utilizes a wheel having an internal bearing race 52a that fulfills to offer smooth operability. In maintaining stability for safe operation, particularly to inhibit vertical lifting of the wheels attached to the lower forward shaft 46 apart from the framed portion of the base platform during occasional rise of the upper platform 26, an open track 54 of the type depicted in FIG. 4 may be mounted to each longitudinal side 24c of the framed portion 24b of the base platform 24 in such manner to accommodate and partially encapsulate each of the wheels.


As further associated with the scissor lift 12, the upper platform 26 is shown in FIGS. 8 and 9 as comprising an internal cross support 26c connecting to the framed portion 26b and a planar surface element 56 attached to a top side 26d of the framed portion thereof to facilitate support of stowed content and offer an amount of rigidity thereto in such manner to mitigate occurrences of undue racking, while the framed portion 24b of the base platform 24 is shown in FIG. 9 as being supplementally configured with an internal cross support 24d to the likes of the upper platform.


Now in reference to FIGS. 4 and 9, upward and downward movement of the upper platform relatively to the base platform 24 is advanced by actuator means, preferably a linear actuator 58 of the type commonly known and available in the art to comprise a body 60 having a eyelet end 60a and a retractable shaft 62 having an end 64 configured with a throughput bore 64a for adaptively attaching to the lower forward shaft 46. A pair of flanges 66 mounted to the lower forward shaft and each being configured with an aperture in alignment with the throughput bore adequately accommodates placement of a bolt 68 or an equivalent type of fastener therewithin to establish a secure relationship thereat.


Comparatively, the eyelet end 60a is generally described as being situated in between a pair of flanges 70 extending upwardly from an end member 24e of the framed portion of the base platform 24 and is attached thereto by means of a bolt 72 to allow a minute amount of pivotable movement thereabout as the retractable shaft 62 of the linear actuator 58 generally advances outwardly in a horizontal manner against the lower forward shaft 46. Accordingly, as the retractable shaft of the linear actuator continues to advance in this manner, the wheels 52 attached to the lower and upper forward shafts will be set in motion to traverse respectively about and along the framed portions of the base and upper platforms while the upper platform 26 lifts upwardly in the direction of path A in FIG. 5 to receive designated items for placement within the containment enclosure 14. Conversely, retraction of the retractable shaft 62 into the body 60 of the linear actuator 58 moves downward the upper platform to a lowermost position in the direction of path A′ in FIG. 5 for purposes generally associated with temporary storage of heavily-weighted items such as a cooler 74 and the like within the containment enclosure 14.


Automated control of the linear actuator to effect upward and downward operation of the scissor lift 12 is facilitated by a controller, which in simplified form comprises an onboard switch 58a possessing the capacity to operably energize a motor (not shown) inherently associated with the linear actuator 58 to fulfill controlled movement of the retractable shaft 62. Accordingly, in this regard, a 12V DC power source supplied onboard the watercraft and electrically coupled to the onboard switch and a requisite number of relays (not shown) and ultimately the motor associated with linear actuator may fulfill the operational requirements of the watercraft storage system 10. In more elaborate configurations, it is conceivable within the scope of the present invention that the controller may alternatively comprise wireless means. In this instance, wireless means may employ use of a radio frequency (RF) module configured with a receiver (not shown) generally coupled to the shared power source and the motor of the linear actuator and a hand-held transmitter (not shown) to effect control of the linear actuator via expressed communications with the receiver by the end user. In an alternative configuration, wireless means may comprise conventional use of a Wi-Fi module or a Bluetooth module (not shown) communicatively coupled to a microcontroller (not shown) that enables switching of the power source to the linear actuator remotely with further provisions of being controlled thorough a software application configured for smartphones and the like communicative devices and having an instruction set adaptively suited to fulfill visual operation of the linear actuator 58 with up and down keys and the status of vertical positioning of the upper platform 26 relatively to the base platform as collectively associated with the scissor lift 12, for example.


Although use of the linear actuator 58 has been described for the preferred embodiment of the watercraft storage system 10, actuator means may comprise varied types of actuators conventionally known in the art that categorically use springs, pneumatics or combination thereof to advance the upward and downward movement of the upper platform in the preferred manner denoted herein. In this instance of use, for example, albeit limited in precise control, the non-electronic type of actuator may operably fulfill extension of the retractable shaft 62 by means of supplying air or gas into the body 60, while retraction of the retractable shaft into the body may occur by way of a return spring that effects movement of the upper platform 26 to a lowermost position near the base platform.


Now in reference to FIGS. 10 and 11, the suspendable shelf 16 is shown therein as comprising a pair of sidewalls 76 substantially existing parallel to one another and being connected to a bottom plate 78 suited to support and accommodate the spatial requirements of the base platform 24 of the scissor lift 12. An upper edge 76a of each sidewall is further shown as having a flange 80 extending outwardly therefrom in a perpendicular relation to the sidewall. The flange in this capacity serves as available structure for connecting to the cross beam 18a of the floorboard 18 as shown in FIG. 1 or the floorboard itself using conventional methodologies known in the art, such as rivets, bolts, or welds, for example, while allowing the bottom plate of the suspendable shelf 16 to reside relatively above a bottom portion 22a of the pontoon's float or boat's hull. Accompanying the sidewalls are a pair of end caps 82 that fully defines the structure of the containment enclosure 14 existing below the watercraft's floorboard. Each end cap, as generally depicted in FIG. 12, comprises a mount flange 84 extending outwardly along portions of the perimeter of the end cap to accommodate attachment to select structural areas of the watercraft, pontoon's float 22 or boat's hull. One or more apertures 86 or cutouts 86a may extend through each of the end caps 82 to accommodate select components particularly associated with the watercraft and construct of the pontoon's float or boat's hull, such as electrical lines and the like passing through the aperture and ribbed structural supports fitting within the confines of the cutout.


In facilitating access to the containment enclosure existing within the bottom space 18b below the watercraft's floorboard 18, the floorboard is shown in FIG. 3 to include a passage cutout 88, which is protectively framed relatively about its perimeter by cross beams 18a and a panel frame 90 and covered by an accessible panel 92. In the particular case of pontoons, the passage cutout, while maintaining its geometric relationship, continues to extend through a top side 22b portion of the float to fulfill continuity of access to the bottom space and ultimately the containment enclosure 14. The accessible panel in this regard is hinged along one side thereof by means of a piano hinge 94 or equivalent mounted to the panel frame 90 and may be associated with a spring-load mechanism (not shown) that enables auto closure of the accessible panel upon the upper platform 26 being lowered into the containment enclosure 14, particularly in such manner to allow the accessible panel to reside relatively flush or in-line with the watercraft's floorboard for unobstructed foot traffic thereabout, typically in the manner shown in FIG. 13.


As it can be seen from the foregoing there is provided in accordance with this invention a simple and easily assembled watercraft storage system 10 that is particularly suited for adaptation to varied types of watercraft 20 generally having a floorboard 18, such as pontoons and hulled boats.


It is obvious that the components comprising the watercraft storage system 10 may be fabricated from a variety of materials, providing such selection or use of materials possess the capacity to withstand forces acting thereon throughout its duration of use and limit occurrences of premature failure due to sustained exposure to a moisture-laden environment. Accordingly, it is most desirable, and therefore preferred, to construct the watercraft storage system 10, namely, the suspendable shelf 16, end caps 82 and scissor lift 12, from aluminum or an equivalent type of material that meaningfully offer reasonable structural strength for its weight, while limiting the extent by which the components may unacceptably fail due to corrosion. In supplementing strength and offering increased rigidity to the base and upper platforms 24, 26, the respective framed portions 24b, 26b thereof may be fabricated with an internal rib 96, particularly as configured in FIGS. 6 and 7.


While there has been shown and described a particular embodiment of the invention, it will be obvious to those skilled in the art that various changes and alterations can be made therein without departing from the invention and, therefore, it is aimed in the appended claims to cover all such changes and alterations which fall within the true spirit and scope of the invention.
