Abstract

182,983. Frahm, E. May 3, 1921. Buoy-throwing apparatus; detaching-gear.-A life-buoy throwing apparatus rotatable about a vertical axis comprises a rotating arm or flywheel to the periphery of which the buoy is secured by a clamping-device adapted to be released so as to allow the buoy to. be projected in the required direction by centrifugal force. The fly-wheel 5 is rotated through gearing 3 by a motor 2 mounted on a platform 1 adapted to be rotated on a column 24 by worm gearing 25. The clamping-device consists of a bell-crank 8 pivoted at 6 and influenced by a spring 7 coiled around a pin 15 slidably and rotatably mounted in the fly-wheel. The pin 15 carries at its end a lever 13 having a notch 12 engaging an arm 11 on the bell-crank so as to retain the buoy on the wheel. The buoy is released by displacing a slidable abutment 18 so as to cause the notched lever 13 to make a partial rotation, thus disengaging the bell-crank, which then opens under the action of centrifugal force. A sighting-device may be provided on the casing 17. In order to control the distance to which the buoy is thrown, a resistance for regulating the speed of the driving-motor is provided and used in conjunction with a revolution-indicator coupled to the fly-wheel and calibrated in units of length. The release of the clamping-device may be effected electromagnetically or by a centrifugally-operated device.
