The object of my hivention is the construction of a paddle-wheel in such manner that the blades shall always preserve a verticalposition.
The Vnatnreof my invention consists in securing tothe axle-off the whee'l a se'riesof radial arms on bothsides of the blades.l In boxes secured on the outer ends of these arms, the axle of the blades has its bearing. Onone end `of these axles is fastened a small cog-wheel, which `meshes in and `gears with a large cog-wheel securcdto the main shaft; as tlic `wheel. is revolved; it carries with it the large cogwheel, which in turn` revolves the `small cog-wheels 'attached to thel axle of the blades. These bladesnare so arranged that by means of the cog-wheels they will always preserve a vertical position.
To` enable others skilled in the art to m'akc and use my invention, I will `now `proceed to describe its construction and operation. y
A is the main shaft of the wheel. To this shaft A, are firmly attacheda series of radial arms A1 A1, their number corresponding tothe numberof blades.
"On the outer ends of these radial arms are secured p metallic bearing-plates or boxes, ala, in `which worl the axlesB B of the blades B' B. y l 0n` the near end of theseaxles B B, and in relation the radial arms `A1 A1, are secured small cog-wheels, c c, one on-eachaxle. f
These cog-wheels c e mesh in and gear with alarge r IMPROVEMENT IN PADIWJLE-WHEELS. v I
c'lare that the following is a full,.clear,` and exact decompanying drawing and to the letters of reference to the position of the blades l5 B', on the' outside et' MAl The `Schedule referred4 to in these Letters Patent and making paxtpf thesame.

cog-wheel, O, which is permanently secured to the main shaft A.
B' B' are the blades, and are convexed on both sides, as clearly shown in iig. 2, having on each end a metallic brace or holder, b b.
These blades may be constructed as clearly shown in igs.- 3 and 4, wherein the axle Bis a nearly-square bar of metal, the thickness of the paddle-blade in its middle, so that, when the sections` or wings D D of the blade are tted to the axle B, they shall present l `a smoothand uniform surface.
VIhese` sections D' D' are held in their places by means of the sliding adjustable braces or holders D D and thumb-screws d il. n
YThe radial arms A' Al may be made tapering andconvexed, as clearly shown iniig. 5, so as to enable them the more easily to eut the water in their passage through it.
These arms A1 A1 may also be, causedto passth rough a slotted wheel or rim, A2, which will act as a stay or -wheels c c, and the device operated by friction.
The axle of the main wheel O, and also that of thc small cog-wheels c c, should rest in adjustable boxes.
` Having thus fully described my invention,
What I claim therein as new, and desire to secure by LettersPatent'of the Unit-ed States, is-
The shaft A arms -A1 Al, blades B B', and cogwheels C c c, when the whole is so combined and arranged as to operate substantially as described. In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing wit- NATHAN F. BARNES, GEO. L. HAYs.
