Abstract

264,219. Savonius, S. J. Oct. 13, 1925. Addition to 244,414. Propelling by rotating cylinders utilizing Magnus effect.-Wind rotors, as described in the parent Specification, are provided with devices for adjusting the setting of the blades for the purpose of regulating reversing, or stopping. In a modification using. the unbalanced transverse thrust on the rotor to propel a ship, the rotor vanes c, d are mounted on pins z<1> carrying rollers u<1>, which by contact with a hand-operated brake-band f<4> reverse the positions of the vanes and consequently the direction of rotation. Regulation and stopping may be effected by a reel v which winds up a steel wire x running round the vanes, and so varies the setting of the pivoted vanes. Fig. 14 is a plan view of a spider u<2> fixed above a tall rotor and having each arm connected to the ship by two inclined stay-rods x<3>.
