Floating structure for transport formed by a train arrangement of rotary bodies of revolution which reduces the drag of same during sailing

A floating structure for transport (1) formed by a tandem arrangement of rotating bodies of revolution (2) that reduces the resistance to advance thereof during its navigation, comprising:

• a front body of revolution (6), intermediate bodies of revolution (7) and a rear body of revolution (8),
• longitudinal rotation axes (4) arranged perpendicular to the direction of advance of said structure, characterized in that:
• said rotating bodies of revolution (2) have a rotation synchronized with the forward speed of said structure;
• said intermediate bodies of revolution (7) are related to each other by their longitudinal rotation axes (4) by attachment means (5) fixed to an upper platform (12);
• said longitudinal rotation axes of said front (6) and rear (8) bodies of revolution are associated to the rotation axes of the bodies of revolution adjacent thereto by hinge means (10), said hinge means (10) pivotally joined to one of the ends of the draft control means (9), which keep said front and rear rotating bodies of revolution (6,8) submerged in the order of 30% its maximum diameter during navigation and are pivotally joined by the other end thereof to said upper platform (12);
• said rotating bodies of revolution (2) being separated from each other by a distance of approximately 5% or less of their maximum diameter;
• and
• said longitudinal rotation axes (4) are associated with driving means (11) which supply over-rotation capacity to said rotating bodies of revolution (2).
