Abstract
13,055. McClean, W. N. June 18. Booms.-A chain boom stretched across a canal or entrance to a dock or harbour to protect lock gates, caissons, and the like against collisions by vessels consists of a chain looped and tied with pieces of weaker chain, which break successively on the impact of a vessel and so gradually arrest its progress. The chain a, Fig. 1, tied by the chains b is attached to blocks c which slide in vertical guides so that the boom may be kept at water level, or may be lowered to allow vessels to pass. The adjustment to water 'level may be made automatic by counterpoising the blocks c with floats i, Fig. 7, a counterweight j being attached, which on being raised by the rope k passing to winding-apparatus allows the float, and consequently the blocks c, to sink ; or compressed air may be admitted to the float to alter its buoyancy. The blocks c may be mounted on roller carriages, the blocks being held against the carriages by springs, so that in the event of a vessel striking the boom, the blocks leave the carriages and bear against the sides of the grooves d. The pull on the anchor blocks may be diminished by attaching baulks of timber to the chain to render it partly' buoyant.
