English term

collision mat

GBK English to Greek Tech/Engineering Ships, Sailing, Maritime
Definition from MarineWaypoints.com:
A large square of heavy canvas fitted with lines to allow it to be drawn under the hull of a ship where it is damaged. The pressure of the seawater holds it tight against the ship and greatly reduces the inflow of water.
Example sentences:
The Collision Mat created by Life Raft and Survival Equipment Inc. was designed to be used as a tool onboard sail or power boats to help slow the intrusion of water thru the hull after a collision or hull appendage failure below the water line. (Life Raft and Survival Equipment)
For larger holes or irregularly shaped punctures or cracks, have a collision mat ready to go. A purpose-built, dedicated, collision mat is probably best, but a storm jib can be successfully employed as well. (David S. Malar and Angelika Jardine)
Sea ice thwarted attempts to keep a collision mat in place to stem water ingress and the bilge pumps were unable to keep up. (Transportation Safety Board of Canada )

Definition from MarineWaypoints.com:
Ο ρίπος συγκρούσεως είναι ένα τετράγωνο κομμάτι καμβά μεγάλων διαστάσεων, εφοδιασμένο με σκοινιά που επιτρέπουν να τραβιέται κάτω από το κύτος του πλοίου, όπου αυτό έχει υποστεί βλάβη. Η πίεση του νερού της θάλασσας τον κρατάει σε επαφή με το πλοίο και μειώνει σε μεγάλο βαθμό την εισροή του νερού.
Example sentences:
Ο υπόλοιπος εξαρτισμός των πλοίων πρέπει να περιλαμβάνει τουλάχιστον: [...] γ) σκοινιά και μεταλλικούς κάβους δ) ένα ρίπο συγκρούσεως, εκτός αν το πιστοποιητικό απαλλάσσει το πλοίο από αυτή την υποχρέωση (Οδηγία του συμβ. των Ε�)
