TOY STEAMBOAT.
.Application tiled November 28, 1823. Serial No. 677,116.
This invention relates to a toy steam boat and has for its princi al objecttt'o provide a boat of this nature aving a simple construction which may be manufactured at a comparatively low costfyet will be durable and afford' considerable amusement to the\ that steam may be generated.
young.
Another important object lof the invention is to provide novel and elicient 'propulsion Hl means for the toy boat.
lA still further importantobject ofthe invention is to provide a rudder with means whereby it may be held at variousangles. in relation to the boat so asto gulde thev l5 same as may be desired.
With the above and other objects in view as will appear as the description progresses, the invention resides in certain novel features of construction, and in the combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter more fully described and claimed.
In the drawing:
Figure 1 is a side elevation of the boat.
embodying my invention showing a portion thereof broken way so as to disclose the propulsion mechanism disclosed therein,
Figure 2 is a transverse section through the boat, i
Figure 3 is a detail plan view of the rear process of the boat.
Referringr to the drawing in detail it Will l be seen that- 1 designates the hull of the boat which may be of any hollow construction having its rear end shaped to overhang as shown at 2. A rudder 3 is carried by a rod 4 suitably journaled through the rear end of the boat so as to extend vertically thereof and terminates at its upperend in a horizontal extension 6 having a rigid i depending lug 7 on its terminal. An arcuate shaped plate 8 is mounted on the rear upper end of the boat and is provided with a plurality of apertures to be engaged by the lug 7 so that the rudder 3 may be held at any desired adjusted angle in relation to the boat. As shown, the elements 4, 6 and 7 are formed of a single piece of materialso that no removable parts are provided which might become 'detached or lost. The release of the lug 7 from and engagement of the same with the apertures of plate 8 may be permitted either by making the part 6 manually yflexible relative to rod 4 or permitting the entirel unit composed of parts 4, 6 and 7 to -move vertically a slight distance.
A boiler or water container 9 is mounted' on the u per ends of legs 10 secured within and on t ebottom of thev hull 1 and a suit-- able burner 11 is disposed and retained on the bottom of the -hull under' the boiler, so pipe 12 lea-ds from the top of this boiler 9-in the hull 1 so as to extend through the lower rear portion of the latter immediately below and centrally between the sides of the overhanging rear end portion for delivering the steam generated in the boiler rearwardlyv at the rear of the boat impinges against the water it will cause the lboat to move forwardly. Furthermore this steamwill heat the water in the immediate vicinity in the rear of the boat and said water having a tendency, after being heated, to rise, will engage the overhanging portion 2 andthereby aid in the forward propulsion of the boat.
i -It is thought that the construction and operation of the toy should now be understood without any more detail description thereof. It is desired, however` to point out that numerous changes in the details of construction and in the combination and ar- Arangementsof parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention or sacrificing any of its advantagesf Having thus described my invention what I claim as new is:
`1. A toy boat comprising, in combination, a hull having an overhanging upper'strn portion, a steam boiler supported with the hull above the bottom of the latter, a burner within the hull beneath the boiler, and a pipe having an open forward end communicating with the interior of the upper portion of the boiler, said pipe further havlng an open rear end vprojecting rearwardly through the lower stern portion of the hull midway between the sides of the latter and terminating at the forward end of the overhanging upper stern portion, whereby a jet of steam is discharged rearwardly from the rear end of the pipe coincident with the longitudinal center of the hull and beneath the longitudinal center of said overhanging upper stern portion upon generation of so that when'said steam steam in said boiler,4 said pipe extending 2. In a toy boat` a rudder, a rod journaled vertically through the rear end of the boat and su porting the rudder on the lower end thereo a horizontal integral extension on the upper end of the rod, a de ending lug on the terminal of and rigid with said eX- `tensionand an arcuate strip-like plate fixed in a horizontal osition upon the top of the boat and provi ed with a longitudinal se- 10 ries of spaced apertures for selective recepture.
