Application filed August 7, 1911. Serial No. 642,727:
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, RAY H. MANsoN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Elyria, in the county of Lorain-and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Apparatus for Training and Locking Signaling Devices and the Like; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same. Y
My invention relates to ap aratiis for training and locking signaling evices, etc., andmore particularly to such devices as are used upon motor boats, though I do not wish to be limited to this particular use, but contemplate using my invention where ever desired. In the form of my invention illustrated, I havev shown an electric horn, though any form of signaling device, or in fact, any instrument which it is desired to train may be used.
The great convenience and effectiveness of the electric horn, as a warning si nal, has caused its rapid adoption by motor oat owners. With such a signal a prolonged blast can be had of any duration, thus complying with the Government re uirements, as well as insuring complete sa ety to the boat and its occupants. In order tomake such horns more effective in use, it is. de-
sirable to pivot them so that they may be the sound toward the object to be warne Iaccordingly" turned, or trained, directin provide a: pivoted mounting for the signalv ing device and with it a locking device for clamping or locking the instrument in its pedestal, or su port. I prefer to employ .a
single device or controlling the trainl'n and lockin of the instrument, in order tha both may e operated by a single hand, for
exainple by a driver or pilot, whose other .hand may be employed for the steering. or
operation of the vehicle. It is also desirable to mount. the instrument, particularly when an electric horn is provided, in a support, so that it can be removed and stowed away when the boat, or vehicle is not in use. This is especially true in connection with motor boats, which are employed only for a poraccordance with my invention. Fig. 3
1s a cross section through a portion, of the device shown in Fig. 2.
Referring now to the drawing and to the embodiment of my invention there shown,,I-
have illustrated my, invention as applied to an electric horn and a motor boat, The boat is shown at 1; a port-ion of the "deck at 2-. A pedestal, or support 3, is fastened to the deck,'or other part of the vehicle upon which it is desired to mount the instrument, being fastened. there by screws, 4:, orother suitable fastening means. In the form shown the support consists ofa base piece 5 and a hollow pedestal 6,,the hollow portion of the pedestal being shown at 7. The signaling device, or instrument is shown at 8 and is preferably provided with a resonator 9 for the rojection' of the sound waves,
produced in t e instrument. It is desirable tohave this resonator directed toward the objects to be warned when the horn iso erated. In order to accomplish this p se,t elower part of the horn is provide with a base member 10, which is shaped to cotiperate with the supporting member 3. In the form shown, this consists of acylindrically shaped projection 10, which ada ted to fit mtp the hollow portion 7' of t e pedestal 6, forming a swivel connection; so that the horn may be trained in any direction. A groove, preferably a longitudinal groove 11 is cut in themember 10 and is here shown as enlarged at-the upper end 12, Thememher 10 is provided with a hollow internal means being here shown as a lever 15,
mounted in the slot 11 and pivoted there; in at 16. A spring 17 mountedin the slot, preferably in the enlargedvporti'on thereof, normally. forces the opposite endls 0f the lever away from he wall oi he. pede al- Havingthuslillustrated and describyedfone A threaded shaft 19 enters this upper part of the slot 11, through the openin in the threaded boss 13. The opposite'en of this lever carries a handle 20. The instrument set-screw. This clamps the parts in the desired position and at the same time prevents the horn from being accidentally knocked 0verboard.- A handle 23 is mounted upon the upper part of the horn'fo'r're moving the same and handling it after r e- -moving. The electric conductors 24, em-
loyed in connection with the instrument illustrated, terminate in the plug 25, which fits in contacts ocket 26'. 1 i
It will be seen that a single member is employed for both training and locking the instrument in the desired position and that the'in strument may be-quickly, conveniently 30 and readily released from the support, removed and stowed away. In order'to' fa- 'cilit'ate the Istowing, I may mount-a second support, similar to the-support 3, inla'loeker.
and mount the horntherein for stowage.
It will be understoodthat I have illustrated a single form of my invention, which. is the referred form audit will likewise be obviousto thoseskilledin' the arts that numerous and extensive departures from the forms and detailsfof the apparatus. here shown may be'fmade without departing from the spirit ofthis invent-ion, the same being: herein. shown sol'el'yfor the purposejof claimfis: p a g 1.
