A device for modifying a hull of a floating body of a floating vehicle or
floating bridge, having a base floating body, with an upper surface
forming a principal rolling path, and first and second lateral surfaces.
On each side of the base floating body, a first movable wall which is
mounted so that it pivots on a lower part of the corresponding lateral
surface of the base floating body, a second movable wall is mounted so
that it pivots on the first movable wall, and a third movable wall is
mounted so that it pivots about the second movable wall The three movable
walls are arranged with respect to each other so that, in a folded
position, the first movable wall is essentially parallel to the first
lateral surface of the base floating body, and the second and third
movable walls partially cover the upper surface of the base floating
body. In a deployed position, the first movable wall delimits a volume
between itself and the first lateral surface, the second movable wall
extends the first movable wall and the third movable wall forms an
additional path broadening the upper surface.
