This invention relates to -boa.ts-" and has e spec al reference-to improvements in folding or collapsible boats in which :the f the boat .made of a waterproof Lfabri c.
One of the objects is;to .providekan. *imp credriband cooperating clip into which therib is fastened to the gunwale thereon Another object is to provide tin-improved rib and cooperating clip into which the rib is fastened to the gunwale of a boat and thru'which therods of the gunwale pass.
Other objects, benefits and advantages will readily appear to persons skilled in the art from a consideration of the following description when taken into conslderation with the drawing forming apart hereof,
. and whereini On the drawings: Figure 1 is a perspective elevation of a canvas boat; i V
Figure 2 is an enlarged plan section. Figure 3 is an enlarged section taken line III-IIIof Figure 2. V Figure 4 is front elevation of. the ribholding clip. and a part of a rib secured clip.
properly benttransverse ribs=12. For the purpose of my invention the ends of the ribs are laterally displaced as shown at 13, for a purpose to be presently described.
The gunwale 14 isjmade of substantially horizontal rods 15, and 16 with the canvas turned over them as more clearlyshown in trally back upon itself with the side walls parallel and vspaced apart. The side edges of spaced and be folded. e
I am aware that many changes may be.
toward -each other withsaid,Ledgesvsuhstantia-lly abutting, except at .the upper v-part Where'opeinngs2l and 22 .ardileitxthru part of the clip is held by the canvas fold 11.
lVhen the ribs 12 are in their normal or JWhlClI lZOPiILSQTR J rods '15 andi 'l6nrespectively.
The clip is ;r1lveted..t'hru its lower.eiidr.-.as. at. 23. to-the canvas of. the boat.
natural positions, they are ina substantially vertical plane.
To insert the ribs they are held at an angle to a vertical plane,
substantially as shownin broken lines inFig- I ure 2, then the offset 13 ofthe rib ends are in the holding clips 1d inserted in the respective oblong openings H 25 of the clips. l/Vhen the rib turns downwardly the least extent from this position, it I cannot be withdrawn from the clip, because it is locked therein by the offset end 13 passing behind the wall of the clip above the perforation. g i p In Figure 2 a plurality of inclinedribs 12 are shown by broken lines.
These ribs are connected by a cord 26;, alsoshown in broken lines. The ribs are initially enteredin the 7 clips when inclined to a greater extent than shownand then the cord 26 is pulled until the ribs are moved into fullline positions.
The. clips 18 serve to lock the rib ends and also to secure the ribs to the salient edge or gunwale of the boat. Therod 15 over which the canvas 1s turned, as shown in Figure 3, is divided into three sections; two end sections 15; only one ofwhich is shown, and
an intermediate section 16 with a gap 27 be- 7 tween.
The rods 15'and 15 are located in the upper ends of the respective 7 clips.
granted thereon otherwise than necessitated by the prior-art or appendedclaims. I claim as my invention 1919 and theend, edges 20*20 are bent 1. Ina boat, a pair of clips for attachment to the gunwale of the boat on opposite sides and having an opening to receive the respective ends of a rib, in combination with a removable rib having its ends insertable in said openings when its mid portion is displaced laterally from its normal position and locked therein by its changed position when said portion is moved to its normal position.
2. In a boat, a hollow clip for attachment to the gunwale of the boat and having a horizontally elongated opening thru its exposed wall in combination with a rib having an offset end insertable thru said opening when the rib is substantially parallel with the longest axis of said opening and locked in said opening when the rib is rotated to a position at an angle from said axis.
3. In a boat, a clip for attachment to the gunwale of the boat comprising a piece of sheet metal bent back upon itself to provide two spaced walls, between which walls is inserted arod comprising a part of the gunwale of'the boat; and having an elongated opening in one wall thru which is inserted the end of a rib, and a rib having an oiiset end insertable in said opening when the rib is in one plane and locked in said opening when the rib is rotated into another plane.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto subscribed my name.
