Abstract
Disclosed is a device for connecting two parts of a ship hull, including: a first frame intended to be integral with a first part of the hull; a second frame intended to be integral with a second part of the hull; a tenon integral with the first frame; a mortise arranged in the second frame and able to receive the tenon as a result of a relative translation of the two frames towards each other in a longitudinal direction of insertion; and a pin which is able to be engaged, on the one hand, into a transverse housing provided in the second frame and opening into the mortise and, on the other hand, into a transverse through-hole provided in the tenon, so as to hold the tenon in the mortise. Also disclosed is a hull of a ship including such a device.

A ship hull comprising a first part and a second part, the first part of the ship hull being a crash box, the first part and the second part being connected to each other by a device comprising:
- a first frame integral with the first part of the ship hull,
- a second frame integral with the second part of the ship hull,
- a tenon integral with the first frame,
- a mortise arranged in the second frame and able to receive the tenon as a result of a relative translation of the first frame and the second frame towards each other in a longitudinal direction of insertion, and
- a pin which is able to be engaged, into a transverse housing provided in the second frame and opening into said mortise and into a transverse through-hole provided in the tenon, so as to hold the tenon in the mortise,
- wherein the first frame includes a central area for fastening a core of said crash box and a peripheral area comprising at least one fastening aperture opening in a first face of the first frame and in a rear face of the first frame opposite to the first face.
