SAILBOA'I'.
Application flied December 11, 1925, Serial lilo. 74,728.
This invention relates to various types of sailing craft, hereinafter referred to as sail boats, and is more especially concerned with such craft designed for racing purposes.
The invention has for its chief ob ect to improve the mast and sail construction of sail boats with a view to increasmg their efliciency.
The nature of the invention will be readily understood from the following description when read in connection with the accompanying drawings, and the novel features will be particularly pointed out ll]. the appended claims.
In the drawings- Figure 1 is a ;perspective view of a sail boat embodying is invention;
Figs. 2 and 3 are diagrammatic views, partly in cross-section, showing the position of the sails and mast in tacking;
. Fig. 4 is a cross-sectional perspective view illustrating certain details of the mast construction and the means for securing the stays and sails thereto;
ig'. 5 is a vertical, cross-sectional view through the step bearing for the mast- Fig. 6 is a horizontal cross sectiona view showm another method of fastening the sail to are mast; and
Fig. 7 is a vertical cross-sectional view through the hearing at the lower end of the spar which serves as a stay for the mast.
Referring first to Fig. 1, the hull of the boat there shown is indicated at 2, the mast at 3, and the main sail at 4. This sail is divided at a point some distance aft and the mast 3 into two vertically disposed sections or wings a and 6, Figs. 1 to 4, inclusive. These wings extend the entire height of the sail, and, their forward edges are spaced apart and secured to the mast at opposite sides thereof. Referring to Figs. 1 and 4 it will be seen that the forward edge of the wing a is tied or lashed at intervals to slides 6 and also to the luff rope 5, the slides 6 being arranged to run freely on a track or rail 7 which is secured to the after side of the mast 3. The wing b is similarly secured to slides 8 which run on a track 9. As the wings a and b extend aft they converge, as indicated in Figs. 2 and 3, and their after edges are joined to the forward ed e of another wing 0 along the line or seam indicated at 10, Fig. 1, the three parts a, b and 0 constituting the main sail.
By dividing the sail as above described,
and joining the forward ed s.of the two sections or wings thereof to t e so that they are substantially flush with the opposite sides ofthe mast, a substantially smooth stream line surface is presented to the action of the wind, the eddyin of the wind around the mast is eliminate and a more eflicient arrangement is provided.
In furtherance of this result, the mast also preferably is given a stream line shape. That is, it has a relatively thin forward edge, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3, and the olpposite sides diverge from each other as t iey extend aft so that in cross-section it resembles the bow portion of a boat. Such a construction ofi'ers less resistance to the wind, and cooperates with the divided sail in presenting to the wind a smooth substantially continuous surface uninterrupted by obstructions or irregularities around which the wind would edd The mast may either be made solid, as indicated in Figs. 2 and 3, or hollow, as shown in Fig. 4. 4
Inorder to further increase the efiiciency of the sell and mast, I prefer'to mount the mast so that it can swing with the sail about an axis extending longitudinally thereof. For this purpose the mast is su ported ID a step hearing which preferab y 15 of the ball type as shown at 12 in Fig. 5, and it is held in its upright osition by stays or shrouds which permit t e mast to turn n the bearing 12. The mast is supported in its fore and aft position by a forestay conslsting of a spar 14, Figs. 1 and 4, which connects the meet with the bow of the boat and acts both as a strut or com ression member and also as a tension mem er. Shrouds or stays 15 and 16, Fig. 1, support the mast latera l' Any suitable means may be used for connecting the spar and stays to the mast, but as shown they are all secured to a fitting 17, Figs. 1 and 4, which is bolted to the mast. The two stays 15 and 1'6 are secured to shackles provided onthe opposite sides of thls fittm A member 20 is secured to the upper en of the spar 14 and is ivoted, by means of a bolt 21, to an ear or ug 19 projecting from a sleeve 18 which pivots on the bolt that secures'the fitting 17 in place. This construction supports the mast securely in its operative posit1on,and at the same time permits the mast to swing freely with the sail in tacking, or as its position changes due to the sail adjusting itself to the wind.
Since the spar 14 is adapted to take both compression and tension, it efl'ectually supports the mast in its fore and aft position and eliminates the necessity for a back stay. It should he observed that the mast is so supported that the axis about which it iv: ots is located at the forward side or lea ing edge of the mast. Consequently, the mast automatically takes such a position, as it swings with the sail, that its thin forward edg iiis always presented to the wind.
A similar construction, shown in Fig. 7, is emplo ed at the lower end of the spar 14. This en of the spar is provided with a slotted metal tip designed to be pivoted to an ear 31 which is formed on the upper end of a swivel 0st 32. This post is secured rigidl to a aring disk or plate 33 which runs tween upper and lower sets of balls 34 and 35, respectively, these balls and the disk being mounted in a suitable housing 36 which is designed to be bolted to thedeck or fore timbers of the boat. A cap 37 is threaded into the housing 36 and may be adjusted to give the ball bearings 34 and 35 the desired amount of play. Water is exeluded-from the housing by a rubber sleeve 38 similar to the sleeve 30 above described. The swivels permit the spar to turn freely with the jib as the latter swings, this movement taking place without interfering in any way with the function of the spar as a strut or stay for the mast.
As above stated, both the main sail and the jib and the mast and spar which support them, are shaped to present smooth and substantially continuous surfaces to the action of the wind. The mounting of the mast and spar so that they can pivot freely about axes extending longitudinally of them in securing the two sections of the .main
sail to the mast 3 is illustrated in Fi 6 where the track 40 for the slides 41 to w ich the wing a is secured, is set into a groove 42 formed in a corner of the mast 3. This groove is partly closed by plates 43 and 44 secured, respectively, to one side and the rear of the mast so that only a relatively narrow slot is provided through which the ed e of the sail 0 projects.
While I have herem shown and described the best embodiment of my invention that I have so far devised, it will be evident that the invention may be embodied in other forms without departing from the spirit or sco e thereof.
aving thus described my invention, what I desire to claim as new is:
