IMPROVEMENT IN PROPELLING-APPARATUS.
@its rlgehnle namhtn im time ssrt'ttmt mit making ,tart nf tige stmt.
'IO-.ALLA WHOM IT MAY CONCERN Be it known that I, JAMES GRANGER, of Zanesville, inthe county of Muskingum, and State of Ohio, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Steamboat Paddle-Wheels; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable those skilled in the art to make and use the same, reference being. had to the accompanying dra-wings, forming part of this'specication.
This invention relates to an improvement on a steamboat propelling-wheel,for'which wheel I have already secured Letters Patent of the United States; and the invention consists in providing a travelling-bridge for the chain to which the buckets are attached, which shall prevent the chain from sagging, and otherwise support and keep the chain in place. y Y l i Figure l represents the wheel, constructed according to my present patent, it being a side elevation, showing the propelling-shafts, and the method of rotating the wheel. f
Figure 2 is a vertical longitudinal section of the chain, with my travelling-bridge applied, showing the manner of its connection ivith the links, the section being through the line a: a; of g.
Figure 3 is a top vien' of the chain.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
In the wheel, as shown in g. 1 there is no particular provision 'made for preventing the chain from sagging, there being no bridge sufficiently lengthy for that purpose. l
A is the improved bridge, which is designed to cover any suitable number of the links B, (which are seen in fig. 2 in dotted lines,) and on the outside in iig. 3.
C represents two series .of conneetinglplates, to which the links, as wellvas the arms-of the buckets, are attachedf Y Y v v It will be s'een that the bridge A is placed betiveen these series of plates, and itsacton isrsuchithat when the chain is elongated so asV to bring the greatest desirable number of buckets into use at one and the same time, the bridge will support the chain and keep it in place.
The lugs on the driving-wheel operate against the plates C when the wheel is in motiointhe same as shown in fig. 1. Y
A I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent-'- The travelling-bridge A, constructed substantially as shown and described, in combination with a chain ro ellin -wheel and for the ur oses set forth. e P p 'g P( p Y JAMES cannone..-
