Marine knots. Burlatskaya loop Viii. special sea knots

According to the bookLev Scriabin "Sea Knots"

5. Non-tightening loops.

oak loop(Fig. 66). This is the simplest loop of all existing non-tightening loops. It is knitted with a simple knot at the end of the rope, folded in half. The oak loop is strong and secure, but greatly weakens the cable by bending it. Unlike the oak knot, it can be used on synthetic rope. Its significant drawback is that the knot at the end of the cable is strongly tightened and the loop is very difficult to untie.

Vein loop(Fig. 67). If, by tying an oak loop, with a doubled running end to make an additional hose, you get a loop that will be a little easier to untie (hereinafter, the working loop is indicated by a cross in the diagrams). It is used for thin fishing lines.

Flemish loop(Fig. 68). Knotted in a figure-eight on a cable folded in half, it is a strong and easily untied loop at the end of the cable. The Flemish loop is suitable for knitting on both thick and thin cables. It almost does not weaken the strength of the cable. It is used for fastening the strings of musical instruments and for other purposes.

"Honda"(Fig. 69). Archaeological finds indicate that this method of tying a loop is one of the oldest. Long before our era, people on different continents of the Earth attached a bowstring to a bow in this way.

An additional knot at the end of the walking cable serves as a stopper, which, when pulled, does not allow it to slip out of the loop of the knot.

“Honda” is the American name for such a loop. Until now, cowboys in Mexico and the southern states of the United States use it for knitting lasso.

eskimo loop(Fig. 70). The Eskimos used this loop to attach the string to the bow. The official name of this loop "Eskimo Bowstring Knot". It has an important property for this purpose: its size can be changed after the knot has already been tied.

When tensioned by the root end of the cable, the loop remains motionless.

perfect loop(Fig. 71). The knot with which this fixed loop is knitted at the end of the cable is simple, reliable and does not slip even on the thinnest synthetic fishing line. The perfect loop is very popular with anglers abroad.

fishing loop(Fig. 72). She is often called English loop or fisherman's light. It can be tied both at the end and in the middle of the cable. When tightening, the knots need to be brought together. This loop is widely used by anglers. Sailors use it instead of a factory fire when a mooring cable breaks and in cases where it is necessary to securely fasten the cable to an object.

Burlatskaya loop(Fig. 73). English sailors are called her harness or Pushkar knot. Apparently, the sailors borrowed it from gunners, who used this knot in cases where they had to harness additional horses or soldiers to the team on steep mountain roads or off-road. This loop can be made both at the end of the cable and in its middle. Burlatskaya loop is designed for the application of traction in any direction. It ties easily and holds securely. True, before a load is applied to the loop, it should be tightly tightened by hand, since with a sharp pull it tends to turn over and slides along the cable for some time. A few loops tied in this way will help to pull out a car stuck in the mud, allow you to climb to a height or go down a steep cliff.

Driving loop(Fig. 74). Just like the burlatskaya, the riding loop is designed for traction in any direction and can be tied in the middle of the cable. It is knitted in a more complicated way than the burlak loop, but it is more durable and reliable.

Arbor knot(Fig. 76). People not familiar with nautical terminology may think that the name "arbor knot" comes from the verb "to chat" or from the noun "arbor". In our maritime language, the name of this node comes from the “gazebo”, but not from the usual, but from the marine arbor, which is a small wooden board - a platform that serves to lift a person onto the mast or lower overboard during painting or other work. This board with the help of cables is attached to the lifting cable with a special knot, which is called the gazebo knot. Its second name bowline. It comes from the English term "bowline", denoting tackle, which is used to pull the pointed leech of the lower straight sail. This tackle is knitted to the leech of the sail with The Bowline Knol, or simply Bowline.

It makes sense to dwell on this node in more detail. Indeed, it is admired by those who deal with cables and viscous knots. This is one of the oldest and most amazing knots ever invented by man. Archaeologists testify that the gazebo was known to the ancient Egyptians and Phoenicians for 3000 years BC. In English marine technical literature, it is often referred to as "king of knots"(King of Knols). Not every sea node can be compared with it in the number of positive properties that it possesses. Given the scope of its application and excellent qualities, the gazebo is rightfully awarded the royal title in a huge dynasty of marine and non-marine knots. In appearance, it looks like a weaving knot, but its running end does not go into the loop of the other end, but into the loop of its root end.

The arbor knot, despite its amazing compactness, simultaneously contains elements of a simple knot, half-bayonet, weaving and straight knots. The elements of all these nodes in a certain combination give the gazebo node the right to be called universal. It is surprisingly easy to knit, even with strong traction it never tightens “tightly”, does not spoil the cable, never slides along the cable, does not untie itself, but it is easy to untie it when necessary.

The main purpose of the gazebo is to tie a person with a cable under the armpits as a means of insurance when climbing to a height, lowering overboard or in a smoky room during a fire on board a ship. You can insert a gazebo into the non-tightening loop of this knot. A loop tied with a gazebo knot on the mooring line reliably serves as a fire. This knot can be successfully used to tie two cables of any diameter or to tie a thick vegetable cable with a steel one (in this case, the cables are connected by loops, and the knots are knitted at their root ends). Of all the ways of tying two cables of different materials (for example, hemp and steel, dacron and manila), connecting with two arbor knots with loops will be the most reliable. In addition, a reliable tightening loop can be made from the gazebo (see Fig. 85). It can be used for mooring and for attaching the cable to the hook. The gazebo knot can also be safely used to temporarily shorten the cable or when it is required to exclude a worn piece of cable from work by tying the knot so that this piece falls on the loop.

There are many ways to knit a gazebo knot. The reader is offered the most rational and most simple.

In life, the ability to quickly tie a gazebo knot around your waist can always come in handy. You need to be able to do this with one hand with one continuous movement of the brush, in the dark, in 2-3 seconds. It's not hard to learn this at all.

Take the root end of the cable in your left hand, with your right hand encircle the running end behind you around your waist. Take the running end in your right hand and, stepping back from its edge about 10 centimeters, hold it in your fist. Take the root end in the left hand and stretch the left hand forward. Now, having the root end of the cable slightly taut, with the right brush with the running end clamped in it, go around the root end of the cable from top to bottom towards you and up away from you. Try to make such a movement with the brush so that it does not completely fall into the loop. Next, wrap the running end around the stretched root end to the left and intercept it with the thumb and forefinger of the right hand. Pulling the right hand out of the loop, simultaneously push the running end into the small loop. Holding the running end with the right hand, pull the root end with the left hand. The knot is tied around your waist according to the diagram in fig. 76. After doing this several times in a row, you will learn how to tie a bow knot on yourself in the dark or with your eyes closed.

A Rice. 76. Arbor knot

double gazebo node(Fig. 77). This knot, which has two non-stretching loops, is used instead of a gazebo for lifting a person to a height, for lifting or lowering a person who has lost consciousness, and in other cases. When knitting a knot, one of the loops is made almost half the size of the other. A person sits in one loop, the second loop wraps around his torso under the armpits. This allows him, having risen to a height, to work with both hands.

In marine practice, there are several ways to tie a double bow knot. Let's explain the most wait. The knot is knitted with a cable folded in half. After entering the running end (in the form of a loop) into the small loop of the knot, the goth end needs to be pulled out a little and, wrapped around the large loop, placed in the upper part of the knot. Holding the root of the cable with one hand, pull the right side of the large double loop with the other hand. After that, the knot will tighten and be ready for use.

Rice. 77. Double gazebo knot

boatswain node(Fig. 78). This ancient maritime knot is sometimes called "Spanish pavilion". It, like the double gazebo, serves to lift a person up or to lower him from a height.

French top knot(Fig. 79). The loops of this knot on the tops of the masts of sailing ships served to fasten the backstays, which tied the free ends of the knot into them with a clew knot, tied them with a straight knot and thus received a third loop, which was used to fasten the stay. One knot simultaneously fastened three pieces of standing rigging.

Top node(Fig. 80). It was also used on the tops of the masts of sailing ships instead of yokes with butts (forged rings with staples) for fastening backstays and stays. This knot was used for fastening temporary guys when installing masts and driving piles,

In English, the name of this knot is "Shamrock Knot", which means shamrock (hare cabbage or oxalis), which is the emblem of Ireland. The knot can be used on the shore for attaching flagpoles and antenna masts, seedling trees, etc. If you have a jug, the neck of which has a more or less large protrusion, with the help of a top knot you can make a convenient handle for it.

But the best way, as the author of the book was convinced, is to use this knot for carrying watermelons and large melons. After all, once on military sailing ships it was used to carry nuclei. From a piece of any cable 3 meters long, a reliable basket for the largest watermelon is obtained. At the same time, the knot should not be completely tightened, and its three loops should be tied with two free ends. Of the four known ways of knitting this top knot, the one shown in the diagram is considered the best.

"South Cross"(Fig. 81). Such a romantic name was given to this knot by sailors of the distant past. Sometimes it is called "Sea Cross" In essence, this is also a top knot, but of a different knitting method and principle.

If you stretch out three loops of the knot, then it will turn out to be a cross in shape (hence the name). This node was used earlier for the same purposes as the top node.

"Herbal" loop(Fig. 75). This is another variation of the non-tightening single loop. Her knitting should begin with a simple knot. It got its name from the name of the node to which it corresponds.

Imagine the following situation: you are overboard in the water, you are thrown from the deck of the end, along which you cannot climb up, because it is slippery. By tying a harness knot around your waist and moving the resulting loop under your arms, you can ensure that you are safely pulled out of the water onto the deck. This magnificent knot has saved the lives of sailors more than once. To untie the gazebo knot, it is enough to slightly move the loop of the running end along the weakened root of the cable.

Double gazebo(Fig. 77). This knot, which has two non-stretching loops, is used instead of a gazebo for lifting a person to a height, for lifting or lowering a person who has lost consciousness, and in other cases. When knitting a knot, one of the loops is made almost half the size of the other. A person sits in one loop, the second loop wraps around his torso under the armpits. This allows him, having risen to a height, to work with both hands.

Using the boatswain's knot, a foot is inserted into each of its two loops and a hand is held on the cable. With this knot, you can raise (or lower from a height) an unconscious person. So that he does not fall out of two loops, one or two half-bayonets are additionally tied on his chest with the running end of the cable.

See what the "Barlatskaya loop" is in other dictionaries:

Just like the burlatskaya, the riding loop is designed for traction in any direction and can be tied in the middle of the cable. It is knitted in a more complicated way than the burlak loop, but it is more durable and reliable. Rice. 74. Riding Loop ... Sea Knots

Burlatsky loop - a knot that allows you to tightly pull the rope or create a tension system for fixing objects and loads.

A haul loop is used to create a loop in the middle of the rope, which can later be used to hang weights, attach carabiners, or create multiple force points to pull the rope. One of the alternative names for this knot (sled or gun loop) comes from the teams used to transport cannons overland. When there was not enough horsepower to create sufficient traction, loops were added to the harness with this knot, for which additional animals or people pulled. Later, the same knot and tension system began to be actively used for transporting not only guns, but also any cargo already in road transport (driver's loop). Another use for the barge loop is the creation of a ladder with a vertical rope, where the loops are given a size sufficient for threading a leg in a boot, and the loops themselves are knitted along the rope at an equal distance from each other. But let's move on to how the burlatskaya loop is knitted.

How to knit a burlatsky loop

The burlatsky loop is knitted only on an unloaded rope, otherwise you will not be able to complete the knitting of the knot to create it.

In today's article, we considered only the burlak loop knot itself and the algorithm for knitting it, but quite often this name is applied not only, and not so much to the knot itself, as to the tension system with its use, which we will talk about in.
