ABRAM A. GOLDSMITH, or CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA.
MUSHROOM-ANCHOR.
SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 261,334, dated July 18, 1882.
Application filed April 15, 1882. (Model) To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, ABRAM A. GOLDSMITH, of Charleston, in the county of Charleston and State of South Carolina, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Anchors, of which the following isa full, clear, and exact description.
This invention relates to what are known, from their peculiar shape, as mushroom-anchors, and which present a circular concave face that, when strain is on the anchor to drag it, exerts a sucking action, which, in addition to the Weight of the anchor, operates to hold the vessel. My invention so far resembles this style of anchor by having the same suckerlike action; but it differs from the ordinary mushroom-anchor by being of a duplex characterthat is, it has circular concave faces on its opposite sides, thus making it a double sucker. It also has its peripheral sides or p0r-' tion V-grooved or concave, thereby giving an additional sucking-surface, and instead of the anchor-chain being attached to its top in an axial line with its face, said chain is fastened to a loose band arranged to encircle the peripheral portion of the anchor, whereby the chain is free to play with the tide without hauling the anchoraround or fouling the chain.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures Figure 1 represents a face view of my improved anchor; Fig. 2, a sect-ion taken intermediately of its opposite faces on the line x 00 in Fig. 3, and Fig. 3 is a transverse section in a plane, at right angles to Fig. 2.
In the drawings, A A indicate the opposite concave faces or suckers of the anchor, which is of circular configuration, and B B are the V-shaped'or' concave peripheral sides of the same.
G is the loose band, arranged to lie within and encircle the peripheral portion of the anchor, as and for the purposes hereinbefore described, said band being provided with a' faces and of V-shaped or concave form on it periphery, essentially as specified.
3. In combination with a circular anchor, the loose encircling band for attachment of the anchor-chain, substantially as specified.
4. The combination of the circular anchor having opposite concave faces A A and a V- shaped or concave periphery, B B, with the loose anchor-chain band 0, arranged to encircle said anchor within its concave periphery, essentially as shown and described.
