Abstract

This invention relates to naval construction and oceanology. It relates to a one-man submersible characterized, firstly, by external shapes designed to prevent any accidental fouling with any fixed obstacles; secondly, propulsion and steering units which give it excellent maneuverability and the possibilities of quick neutralization of any reaction experienced by the submersible; thirdly, by the fact that the operator has available a system comprising, at the extreme forward part of the submersible a swivelling and extensible tool-holder system with a coaxial and protected swivel seat; finally, a tall horizontal crane with one or two swivelling and extensible jibs, and four hydraulic columns with a special baseplate, these all being features which enable any work to be carried out with increased rapidity, accuracy and safety. The above submersible has numerous advantageous applications in various areas of ocean exploration and working.
