Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Verstellpropeller, insbesondere für Motor- und Sport-boote, dessen Propellerflügel mit in der Propellernabe (6) geführten Verstellstangen verstellbar sind, deren freie Enden an einem Joch (8) befestigt sind, das an einen doppelt wirkenden Hubzylinder angeschlossen ist. Um eine unerwünschte Verstellung der Steigung der Propellerflügel auf einfache Weise zu vermeiden und außerdem die Steigung der Propellerflügel feinfühliger einstellen zu können, soll das Joch (8) über ein selbsthemmendes Gewinde mit einer Verstellwelle (11) verbunden sein, an deren anderen Ende die drehfest geführte Kolbenstange (15) des Hubzylinders über ein nicht-selbsthemmendes Getriebe (13) angreift.

The invention relates to an adjustable propeller, in particular for motor and sports boats, the propeller blades of which are adjustable with adjusting rods guided in the propeller hub (6), the free ends of which are attached to a yoke (8) which is connected to a double-acting lifting cylinder. In order to avoid an undesired adjustment of the pitch of the propeller blades in a simple manner and also to be able to adjust the pitch of the propeller blades more sensitively, the yoke (8) should be connected via a self-locking thread to an adjusting shaft (11), at the other end of which the non-rotatably guided one Piston rod (15) of the lifting cylinder engages via a non-self-locking gear (13).
