Feb. 18, 1930. REARDON OUTBOARD MOTOR CONVEYER Filed June 13, 1928 MAW M g Patented Feb. 18, 1930 UNITED STATES PATENT QFFIE OUTBOARD-MOTOR CONVEYEE Application filed June 13, 1928.
My invention relates to an improvement in an outboard motor conveyer and its novelty consists in the combination, adaptation and arrangement of parts'as will be more 5 fully hereinafter pointed out.
The use of outboard motors for propelling boats has only come into extensive use during the past few years but such use has now become so extensive that a large number of people are using outboard motors on small open boats which afford no protection or housing for the protection of the motor when not in use thereby requiring that the motor be taken ashore each time after its use and brought from the shore to the boat each time for use.
It was not so diflicult to do this with the very small outboard motor which was originally made for canoes and very light boats as the total Weight of such outboard motors was usually substantially less than forty pounds. Today, however, outboard motors weighing between sixty and one hundred pounds are frequently used and it has therefore become a problem to handle these without danger of a severe strain to the one lifting them and also a problem to handle them without inj uring them because of the knocking of them against other objects or dropping them due to the awkwardness in handling such a large and unwieldy weight.
My device is adapted to solve this problem and does so in an efiicient and inexpensive manner by furnishing a light but strong conveyer which can be readily wheeled over a rough or rocky shore or down a narrow pier or. slip so that the outboard motor can be lifted from the boat and placed immediately upon my conveyer. Frequently the shed, ga-
; rage or house where the outboard motor must be stored is a long distance from the edge of the water where the boat is in use and therefore the use of my conveyer makes practical the use of the modern heavy type of outboard motor now commonly in use.
Serial No. 284,902.
per end of said frame 6 terminates in a handle portion 8 on which is mounted a rotatable handle member 9 and the frame 6 is strengthened by means of the cross bars 10 rigidly secured between the two portions of said frame 6.
A pair of offset brackets 11 having tubular portions 12 adapted to fit over the two frame members 6 so as to readily slide thereon are adapted to be locked in a fixed or rigid position by means of the usual set screws 13 terminating at their outer ends in handles 14. The brackets '11 of substantial length as shown in the drawing terminate at their outer ends in plates 15 to which is rigidly secured in the usual way at 16 a supporting board 1?" over which hanger members 18 of usual construction of an outboard motor 19 are adapted to hang thereby supporting said outboard motor 19 in an offset position so that the upper end or fly wheel 20 of said outboard motor l9 rests between the frame member 6 and against the same and the lower end 21 of the outboard 'motor 19 and particularly the propeller 22 are thereby supported in a position against possible injury between the frame members 6.
It will readily be seen that by loosening the setscrews 13 by turning the handles let the offset supporting board 17 may be readily raised or lowered as the brackets 11 slide up and down on'the frame 6 whereby the offset supporting board 17 may be adjusted to the position desired to support any size outboard motor, be it small or large.
A pair of supporting legs 23 are pivoted at 24 to the sides of the frame members 6, the
, pivot 24 being so adjusted that the supporting legs 23 can be readily pulled down to the supporting position or closed up to the closed position but being tightly enough adjusted hooked .fror'n its supported position at the stern of the boat where used and placed on "the conveyer so that the hanger members 18 used to suspend the motor on the boat will also serve as hangers on my conveyer and will hang over the upper edge of the supporting board 17 and the fly wheel portion 20 resting against the frame members 6 whereby the conveyer mayreadily convey the outboard motorto the ,place of storage over the rough- "the boat. 7 The rotatable handle member- 9' est going without danger of injury to the outa board motor 19 because of its Well secured positi'on on the conveyer. ,The motor 19 may be left in this supported position on the con veyer by use of legs 23 which when thrown out will properly support it in'the upright positionand said legs 23 may be closed up 3. In an outboard motor conveyer the combination of a pair of wheels, an axle support- 7 ed by and connecting said pair of wheels, a- 7 frame'supported on said axle, a hanger board mounted on saidlframe vertically adjustable thereon and offset therefrom, whereby an outboard motor -may be supported thereon by its regular hangers.
In testimony whereof I alfix my signature.
