Definitions
- the present invention concerns a groove holder for a tiller lock for a boat with a tiller and a tiller extension with a spiral groove handle having the features of the first part of claim 1.
- An example is an endless rope attached to the tiller head and led out into the respective sides of the boat and aft around the cockpit, where it can be locked by any type of sheet clip. Most of these devices are cumbersome, difficult to set to the exact course, and are lacking possibilities to make small adjustments.
- the tiller lock consists mainly of a tiller extension that has a handle with a spiral groove cut, (a trapezoidal thread), the spiral groove handle, which can be put down in an in each side mounted groove holder, which lock the tiller to the wanted rudder angle.
- the rudder angle can be tuned along the full length of the spiral groove.
- the groove holder has a folding holding plate with a U-shaped cut which in its bottom has half a worm, with the measure and pitch of the threading of the handle, in which the handle fits in.
- the cut somewhat deeper than the diameter of the handle, has resilient shanks to get hold of the handle and secure it from unintended lifting when in use.
- the holding plate is mounted in a metal bottom plate with four right angle ears, by a shaft through the lower edge of the holding plate and holes in an anterior pair of ears, the rear pair being provided to protect the holding plate when folded down.
- the groove holder is provided with a device to keep the holding plate in one of three positions: 0°, (folded down), or 90° or 180° (folded up), consisting of a stop spring between the metal bottom plate and the holding plate, with corresponding notches in the latter.
- the groove holders are mounted one on each side and usually horizontally, on the cockpit coaming and in about a right angle to the tiller head. At use the holding plate is folded up to 90° and the spiral groove handle is placed in it with a slight pressure. Should the coaming be too small for horizontal mounting, the groove holder is to be mounted vertically on the inside of the coaming and at use folded up to 180°.
- This device works, from a technical point of view excellently, but suffers from a disadvantage due to the fact that the position of the groove holder on the coaming is the same as the place where the helmsman normally is sitting at manual steering. Its angular form and comparative height result in an uncomfortable seat and restrict the movement. Further, clothes and lines are easily caught in it.
- the groove holder according to the invention allows secure setting of the course, also allows persons on the boat to sit and move freely without risking themselves or their clothes being damaged by, or stuck in, the groove holder, or having to sit uncomfortably or in a non-optimal position when steering manually. It is also an advantage that a groove holder is provided through which any risk of interfering with lines or other equipment on the boat is eliminated. It is also an advantage that a groove holder is provided which is easy to operate, and to transfer from an operative to a non-operative position and vice-versa.

Abstract
Description
- The present invention concerns a groove holder for a tiller lock for a boat with a tiller and a tiller extension with a spiral groove handle having the features of the first part of claim 1.
- In boats with a tiller it is often necessary to lock the tiller to keep the course when the helmsman is forced to leave it, for example at fishing or when trimming sails at sailing. An old method in local fishing boats or workboats was a "hack board", placed on edge across the boat afore the rudderstock below the tiller. The board was provided with a number of traces, "hacks", on the top edge, in which a sheet metal strip, fastened on the underside of the tiller, could be put down, thus securing the tiller and keeping the course.
- Modern boats, especially sailing boats, often lack this facility owing to the design of the cockpit. Different arrangements apply in place. An example is an endless rope attached to the tiller head and led out into the respective sides of the boat and aft around the cockpit, where it can be locked by any type of sheet clip. Most of these devices are cumbersome, difficult to set to the exact course, and are lacking possibilities to make small adjustments.
- The need of a modern tiller lock, allowing quick and easy locking, and by means of which an accurate course adjustment, large or small, can be performed by a single grip, resulted in the invention of the Swedish tiller lock "Styrman Jonsson" ("Helmsman Jonsson"), see Swedish Patent No.
520 104 - The tiller lock consists mainly of a tiller extension that has a handle with a spiral groove cut, (a trapezoidal thread), the spiral groove handle, which can be put down in an in each side mounted groove holder, which lock the tiller to the wanted rudder angle. By turning the handle when it is in one of the groove holders, the rudder angle can be tuned along the full length of the spiral groove.
- The groove holder has a folding holding plate with a U-shaped cut which in its bottom has half a worm, with the measure and pitch of the threading of the handle, in which the handle fits in. The cut, somewhat deeper than the diameter of the handle, has resilient shanks to get hold of the handle and secure it from unintended lifting when in use.
- The holding plate is mounted in a metal bottom plate with four right angle ears, by a shaft through the lower edge of the holding plate and holes in an anterior pair of ears, the rear pair being provided to protect the holding plate when folded down.
- The groove holder is provided with a device to keep the holding plate in one of three positions: 0°, (folded down), or 90° or 180° (folded up), consisting of a stop spring between the metal bottom plate and the holding plate, with corresponding notches in the latter.
- The groove holders are mounted one on each side and usually horizontally, on the cockpit coaming and in about a right angle to the tiller head. At use the holding plate is folded up to 90° and the spiral groove handle is placed in it with a slight pressure. Should the coaming be too small for horizontal mounting, the groove holder is to be mounted vertically on the inside of the coaming and at use folded up to 180°.
- This device works, from a technical point of view excellently, but suffers from a disadvantage due to the fact that the position of the groove holder on the coaming is the same as the place where the helmsman normally is sitting at manual steering. Its angular form and comparative height result in an uncomfortable seat and restrict the movement. Further, clothes and lines are easily caught in it.
- It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide an improved groove holder for tiller locks or helm locks with tiller extensions. It is a particular object to provide a groove holder through which the above mentioned drawbacks can be overcome. Other particular objects are to provide a groove holder which is capable of securely holding a tiller extension, in place, allowing setting to an accurate course, and easy adjustment thereof. Still further objects are to provide a groove holder which is cheap and easy to fabricate, easy to mount and operate, which is durable and which does not run the risk of interfering with or damaging clothes, lines, other equipment or persons, particularly the helmsman, and which even allows comfortably sitting on it.
- Therefore a groove holder as initially referred to is provided which additionally comprises the features of the characterizing portion of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments are given by the dependent claims.
- It is an advantage of the groove holder according to the invention that it, in addition to being secure, allows secure setting of the course, also allows persons on the boat to sit and move freely without risking themselves or their clothes being damaged by, or stuck in, the groove holder, or having to sit uncomfortably or in a non-optimal position when steering manually. It is also an advantage that a groove holder is provided through which any risk of interfering with lines or other equipment on the boat is eliminated. It is also an advantage that a groove holder is provided which is easy to operate, and to transfer from an operative to a non-operative position and vice-versa.

Fig. 1 shows a groove holder 10 in an unmounted state. It comprises a base plate 1 which comprises a substantially rectangular plate with a rectangular cut-out so that two parallel, resilient shanks orlegs legs 1B holes 11A, 11B are provided through the legs which extend in a direction substantially in parallel with a longitudinal extension of the interconnecting section 1C and in a plane parallel to a main plane of extension of the base plate. The purpose of theholes 11A, 11B is to receive a shaft 4 on which aholding plate 3 is to be mounted for connecting the base plate 1 and theholding plate 3 such that theholding plate 3 is located between thelegs 11A, 11B. Theholding plate 3 is provided with a U-shaped cut-out adapted to take up a spiral groove handle. At its outer edge, facing away from the U-shaped cut-out, i.e. from the ends of the legs formed by the U-shape, theholding plate 3 is provided with athrough hole 31 for mounting on the shaft 4. Cross-wise milled cuts 5 are provided in the axle or through hole centre for, here, allowing the holdingplate 3 to be folded or pivoted to assume (here) three different positions around the shaft 4 by means of cooperation with a V-shapededge 8 provided on the inside of the leg orlegs worm 7 is provided which can be grasped for the purpose of folding up the holdingplate 3. - The shape and size of the cut-out in the base plate defining the space between the
legs 11A, 11B and the interconnecting position 1C is preferably such as to be substantially contiguous with the outer peripheral sides or edges of the holdingplate 3. - At the interconnecting portion 1C holes are schematically indicated for mounting of the base plate 1, by means of screws, bolts or similar, to the boat. Such mounting means can be provided for in any appropriate manner. All upper edges 9 of the base-plate are rounded or bevelled to assure that a person, the clothes, etc. will not be damaged if the person is sitting on, or getting in contact with the groove holder 10. It also assures that lines, ropes or other necessities or equipment will not be caught or entangled. Through the rounded shape, a helmsman or any one else may also comfortably sit on the groove holder.
- One or both of the legs or shanks 2A, 2B is/are provided with a longitudinal V-shaped edge 8 (see
Fig. 3 ) adapted to, in a mounted state, mesh with the cross-wise milled cuts 5 in the holdingplate 3 to keep the holdingplate 3 in one of (here) three different folding positions with respect to the base plate 1, a first folded down portion (corresponding to 0°), a 90° first folded up position and a second 180° folded up portion. The cooperating V-shapededge 8 and the milled cuts 5 act as a positioning arrangement. - The interconnecting portion 1C of the base plate 1 preferably, at least in portions behind the legs or shanks 2A, 2B, has a somewhat larger thickness than the legs or shanks and the holding
plate 3, in order to prevent that the movement is hindered or affected by friction against the mounting surface during folding of the holdingplate 3. For folding up of the holdingplate 3, it can be gripped by a finger in theU-shaped cut 6 behind theworm 7 and pulled. - The groove holder 10 according to the invention has a low profile with no sharp edges or protruding parts. The lowest height thereof, in a folded down position, is determined by the thickness of the holding
plate 3. In state of the art groove holders a base plate is formed by a metal bottom plate. According to the present invention this is replaced by a base plate preferably of the same material, and substantially having the same thickness, as a holdingplate 3, which enables a particularly low profile. - Arranging and blocking the holding
plate 3 in one of e.g. two or three folding positions is enabled by means of the longitudinal V-shapededge 8 in the axle centre (of thehole 11A, 11B) of one or both of the legs orshanks Fig. 2A ) in the holdingplate 3 when mounted on the shaft 4. - In a preferred embodiment the base plate 1 and the holding
plate 3 are manufactured by means of injection moulding. It should however be clear that they (one or both plates) can also be made by any other appropriate manufacturing method. Although preferably consisting of the same material (e.g. plastic) they may also be made of other, or of different, materials. - The invention is not limited to the specifically illustrated embodiment but can be varied freely within the scope of the appended claims.
