Description

April 28, 1953 G. H. KLIPPE.. 2,636,466
ANCHOR ROPE SNUBBER FOR BOATS Filed June 22, 1950 INVENTOR. 619017@ H /Y//ppe/ Patented Apr. 28, 1953 UNITED STAT-E S PAT ENT oFFlcE This invention has for its object a particularly Simple article to be attached to boats to serve as a snubber-for the anchor ropes, and also as a handle for facilitating the lifting of the boat, which snubber can be readily operated to lower the anchor and also raise it and hold the rope with any desired length attached to the anchor.
The invention consists in the novel features and in the combinations and constructions hereinafter set forth and claimed.
In describing this invention, reference is had to the accompanying drawing in which like characters designate corresponding parts in all the views.
Figure 1 is a side elevation of a boat with this snubber attached to the bow thereof.
Figure 2 is a plan view of the snubber with parts broken away and parts in section.
Figure 3 is a side elevation with the arm partly broken away.
This snubber comprises a body consisting of a base plate I for attachment to the boat 2 and preferably to the bow thereof, and an arm 3 extending in a general direction over and parallel to the base plate l. The base plate I and the arm 3, at one end of the body, are provided or formed with bifurcations 4. A pulley 6 is mounted between the bifurcations 4, on a spindle 'I extending therethrough. The pulley is suitably grooved to receive the anchor rope R. The handle portion 3 of the body is also provided with bifurcations 5, a, at its opposite end. The bifurcation 5a extends downwardly and is attached to the base plate I, the bifurcations 5 terminating in spaced relation from the base plate I. The snubber further includes a snubbing pulley 8 eccentrically mounted on a spindle 8 between the bifurcations 5, 5a of the arm 3, that is at the end of the arm v3 remote from the pulley 6. Preferably the periphery II of the pulley 8 is conical and also the pulley is formed with a radial stop shoulder I2 for coacting with the stop surface I3 between the bifurcations 5 and the base plate I to limit rotative movement of the pulley. The arm 3 is so formed as to serve as a handle for lifting the boat. A portion of the periphery of the pulley 8 may be corrugated, or roughened, as
at 8a to bite into or increase the frictional engagement on the rope as the pulley 8 is shifted about its spindle 9 through the broken line position into the feed line position, Figure 3, and the rope has been slid sidewise into the space Ill between the pulley8 and the base plate I.
In operation with the rope running over the pulley 6. it will be pulled out under ,the weight 4 Claims. (Cl. 114-199) of the anchor-to any desired lengthvand then, upon movement of the rope into the space I 0 between the lower edge of the bifurcation 5 and the base plate I, will wedge between the pulley and the base plate and lock the rope from further movement under the pull of the anchor, the conical periphery II of the pulley 6 facilitating the engagement of the rope by a lateral movement with the pulley 8 and the rotation of the pulley 8 to snub the rope. The wedging action of the snubbing pulley 8 is facilitated by lifting the rope to press it against the pulley 8 so that the pulley will be rotated over to the right, Figure 3, from the extreme dotted line position through the intermediate dotted line position to the full line position, Figure 3, the rope paying out a trie during this operation. The base plate I is provided With suitable holes I4 for receiving screws or bolts for attaching the base plate to the boat.
By this snubber, the anchor can be raised or lowered from any position in the boat by feeding out on the anchor rope when the rope is laterally out of engagement with the pulley 8 and by pulling up on the anchor rope and moving it laterally between the pulley 8 and the base plate.
What I claim is:
1. An anchor rope snubber and handle for boats comprising a base plate and an arm bifurcated at its opposite ends and rigidly secured at one end to the base plate and extending over the base plate and spaced therefrom in a general direction parallel to the base plate, a pulley mounted between the bifurcations at the end secured to the base plate between the bifurcations at said end and the other end of the arm being spaced from and free of the base plate, and a vpulley mounted betweenthe bifurcations of said other end and having its periphery spaced from the base plate for receiving the rope between its periphery and the base plate, said arm being located to constitute a lifting handle for the boat.
2. An anchor rope snubber and handle for boats comprising a base plate, an arm bifurcated at its opposite ends and rigidly secured at one end to the base plate and extending over the base plate in spaced relation thereto in a general direction parallel to the base plate, a pulley journalled between the bifurcations at the end secured to the base plate, one of the bifurcations at the opposite end of the arm being spaced from and free of the base plate, and the other of said bifurcations being joined to the base plate, a snubbing pulley eccentrically journalled between said last mentioned bifurcations for receiving the rope between its periphery and the base plate, said snubbing pulley being operable upon rotation in one direction by the rope to snub the rope against the base plate and to free the rope upon movement of the rope in the opposite direction.
3. An anchor rope snubber and handle for boats comprising a body consisting of a base plate, an arm joined at one end to one end of the basatplateand` extending over. the plate in spacedI relation thereto, said xbase plate and arm being bifurcated at said end, a pulley journalled between the bifurcations, the opposite end of said arm being formed with-bifurcations, one of said last mentioned bifurcations extending GEORGE I-I. KLIPPEL.
