Bridge unit

A deck unit is a device that allows the anchor chain to be raised or lowered by means of a sprocket, which is a toothed wheel that engages in the chain links. A deck unit is generally located on the boat's foredeck, near the bow, but there may also be deck units at the stern of the boat, for stern moorings or emergency anchors.
A deck unit may be vertical or horizontal, depending on the orientation of the sprocket in relation to the deck. A deck unit can be completed by a capstan or headstock, which is a rotating cylinder used to raise or lower the chain or rope.
