8 Claims. (Cl. 73-187) This invention relates to a novel unit of extremely simple construction which may be detachably mounted on a boat including parts disposed in an outboard position below the water line of the boat and which function in response to the movement of said parts relative to the water when the boat is under-way to indicate the speed of travel and the distance traveled by the boat.
Still another object of the invention is to provide a speed and distance indicating device which may be mounted on either the starboard or port side of a boat hull and which will function to accomplish its intended result whenever the boat is under-way moving either forward or astern.
Another object of the invention is to provide a speed and distance indicating device which may be mounted on the stern of a boat to function when the boat is under-way and moving in a forward direction.
Still a further object of the invention is to provide a speed and distance indicating device wherein the submerged parts are capable of swinging upwardly in a direction opposite to the direction of movement of the boat on which the device is mounted to prevent the submerged parts from being damaged by striking an obstruction and to permit said parts to yield and pass over the obstruction.
Various other objects and advantages of the invention will hereinafter become more fully apparent from the following description of the drawing, illustrating a presently preferred embodiment thereof, and wherein:
Figure 1 is a side elevational view showing the speed and distance indicating device in an operative position;
Figure 2 is an enlarged cross sectional view taken substantially along a plane as indicated by theline 22 of Figure l;
Figure 3 is a sectional view, partly in elevation, taken substantially along a plane as indicated by the line 3-3 of Figure 2, and
Figure 4 is a transverse sectional view, taken substantially along a plane as indicated by the line 4-4 of Figure 3.
Referring more specifically to the drawing, the speedometer and odometer unit for boats in its entirety and comprising the invention is designated generally 7 and includes a mounting or securing means herein illustrated as aclamp 8 having substantiallyparallel legs gunwale 12 of ahull side 13 of anyconventional boat 14. Theleg 9 of theclamp 8 is disposed on the outer side of thehull portion 13 and is longer than theother leg 10, which is disposed in an inboard position. Saidinner leg 18 has a threadedbore 15 to receive aclamping screw 16 which extends threadedly therethrough. Aclamping head 17 is suitably attached to the inner end of thescrew 16, between thelegs hull part 13 between saidhead 17 and theouter leg 9. The other, outer 2,773,383 Patented Dec. 11, 1956 ably secured thereto by means of which thescrew 16 can be manually turned for securing theclamp 8 to a hull side. Theouter leg 9 is provided with an outturnedlower end portion 19 and also has anarm 26 fixed to and extending outwardly therefrom, preferably adjacent its upper end. Thearms open ings 21.
Asleeve 22 fits turnably between theclamp arms headed pin 23 extends through thealigned openings 21 and through the bore of thesleeve 22 for swivelly mounting the sleeve between theclamp arms cotter pin 24 extends through the lower portion of thepin 23, below thelower clamp arm 19 for maintaining thepin 23 in its applied position as illustrated in the drawing. A supportingarm 25 is suitably fixed to thesleeve 22 and extends laterally therefrom. The supportingarm 25 is located near to but spaced from the upper end of thesleeve 22. The supportingarm 25 is preferably of bifurcated construction as seen in Figure 4.
An elongated rigid supportingmember 26 of tubular construction is substantially straight except for anupper end portion 27 thereof which is curved, as best seen in Figures 1 and 3. Anelongated web 28 is suitably secured to and extends longitudinally of a part of the supportingmember 26 and has anear portion 29 at its upper end which extends laterally from the supporting member 26 a greater distance than the remainder of saidweb 28. Theear 29 fits loosely into the outer end of the supportingarm 25, and is pivotally connected thereto by apivot pin 30, which extends loosely through alignedopenings 31 of the iarm 25 andear 29. Thus, the supportingmember 26 is end of the screw 16has a handle orhandwheel 18 suitr swingable vertically relatively to the supportingarm 25 about theaxis 30 which is disposed transversely of thesleeve 22. One end of acontractile coil spring 32 is connected to theweb 28, substantially below thepivot 30, and the other end of thespring 32 is connected to aneye 33 which projects laterally from thesleeve 22, near the lower end thereof. Thecontractile spring 32 normally maintains the supportingmember 26 in a position substantially parallel to thesleeve 22 and resists swinging movement of the lower portion of the supportingmember 26 away from the lower part of thesleeve 22.
Agear housing 34, which is preferably of circular cross section and which tapers toward each end thereof, is formed of detachably connected sections, and is provided intermediate of its ends with a laterally projectinghollow neck 35. Theneck 35 is suitably secured in the lower end of the tubular supportingmember 26 so that aforward end 36 of thehousing 34 will be disposed beneath theweb 23. A conventionalflexible shaft 37 extends loosely through the supportingmember 26. Abearing 38 is secured in theneck 35. An end of thecore 39 of theflexible shaft 37 is journaled in thebearing 38 and projects therebeyond into thegear housing 34 and has a beveled gear 40 fixed thereto and loosely disposed within thegear housing 34.
A conventional speedometer-odometer 41 is suitably mounted on theupper end 27 of the supportingmember 26 and the mechanism thereof is connected in a conventional manner to the opposite end of theflexible shaft 37 for actuating the speedometer-odometer when thecore 39 of the flexible shaft is revolved.
Animpeller shaft 42 is journaled in thegear housing 34 and is disposed longitudinally thereof. One end of theimpeller shaft 42 extends rotatably through thetrailing end 43 of thegear housing 34 and has animpeller 44 fixed thereto. Theimpeller 44 corresponds structurally to a conventional boat propeller. Abeveled gear 45 is fixed to theimpeller shaft 42 and is disposed in thegear housing 34 in mesh with the beveled gear 40.
Assuming that the speedand distance indicatingdeamasss vice 7 is applied to thestarboard side 13 of the hull, as previously described, and'as illustrated in Figure 1, and theboat 14 is under way and moving forward or from left to right as seen in Figure 1, pressure of the water against theweb 28 and supportingmember 26 will cause thesleeve 22 to turn on thepin 23 so that theparts 25. and 26 will be disposed behind or me trailing position relative to theclamp 8, as illustrated in Figures 1, 3 and 4. As theboat 14 is propelled forwardly, movement of theimpeller 44 through the water and impingement of the water against the pitched blades of the impeller will cause said impeller to be revolved for revolving theimpeller shaft 42 and the core of theflexible shaft 37, through the connection of themeshing bevel gears 40 and 45. The speed at which said shafts and the impeller are driven will be in direct ratio to the speed of translational movement of theboat 14. Rotation of the core of theflexible shaft 37 will actuate the speedometer-odometer 41 in a conventional manner to indicate the speed of movement of the boat and to also record the distance traveled in the same manner that such a unit functions on a motor vehicle. Obviously, the speedometer-odometer can be calibrated in nautical rather than statute miles, if desired.
Should the gear housing 34, the lower part of the supportingmember 26 or theWeb 28 strike an obstruction, it will be readily apparent that the supportingmember 26 may swing about itspivot 30 in a clockwise direction as seen in Figures 1 and 3 to permit the lower part of the supportingmember 26 and the parts carried thereby to swing upwardly and rearwardly or to the left, as seen in Figures 1 and 3, for passing over the obstruction. Thespring 32 which will thus be substantially tensioned will thereafter return said parts to their normal positions as seen in Figures 1 and 3, and normally functions to maintain the lower portion of the supportingmember 26 in a position substantially parallel to thesleeve 22.
It will likewise be readily apparent that theparts member 26 can swing about thepin 23 to position thepart 26 and the parts carried thereby to the right of or forwardly of theclamp 8 in the event that the boat is moving astern or from right to left as seen in Figures 1 and 3, and that thedevice 7 will then function in the same manner as previously described. It will also be obvious that theclamp 8 may be secured to the other port side of the boat hull and that themember 26 may swing in the same manner as previously described to assume a trailing position relative to theclamp 8 so as to function in the same manner as previously described.
Thedevice 7 may also be mounted on the stern of a boat to function when the boat is under-way and moving in a forward direction, in the same manner as previously described. The supportingmember 26 will still assume a trailing position relative to thesleeve 22 and in which the supporting member will be in alignment with theclamp 8.
it will also be apparent that thedevice 7 may be mounted on various types of small boats and that the length of the supportingmember 26 between its lower end and thepivot 30 may be varied to accommodate the device to boats having different amounts of freeboard.
Various other modificationsand changes are likewise contemplated and may obviously be resorted to, without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention as hereinafter defined by the appended claims.
