FIGURE 4 is a vertical cross-sectional View taken substantially on the line 4-4 of FIGURE 3;
FIGURE 5 is a horizontal cross-sectional View taken on substantially the line 5-5 of FIGURE l;
FIGURE 6 is an enlarged plan View of a portion of a removable pin illustrating the securing device pivotally engaging the same; and
FIGURE 7 is a vertical cross-sectional view taken on substantially the line 7-7 of FIGURE 6. A
Referring to the drawing more particularly by reference numerals, 10 indicates generally an air boat bracket constructed in accordance with the teachings of the present invention. The bracket 10 includes a mounting base 12, a sleeve unit 14 pivotally supported thereon, and an air propeller motor supporting shaft 16 adjustably mounted in said sleeve unit 14.
The base 12 may be a casting, and preferably is genen ally of the configuration clearly shown in the drawing. It includes two spaced Z-form side portions 18 adapted to engage over the transom or rear wall 19 of a boat 26, each having a threaded boss 22 receiving a mounting or securing member 23 which will engage the inside face of a transom 19. Transverse braces 24 and 25 are formed integral with the side portions 18. A rearwardly extend' ing portion 26 has an arcuately disposed series of apertures 28.
The sleeve unit 14 also may be a casting of the configuration illustrated, and includes a sleeve portion 30 from which extend two parallel web portions 32, each.
against accidental removal by a pivotally mounted lock-Y ing leaf 42, or the like.
A window 44 is formed in one side of the sleeve portio 30, and openings 46 and 48 are formed in the web por.
tions 32. A friction shoe 45 is disposed in the window -44 and has oppositely directed ears 47 and 49 extending through the openings 46 and 48, respectively. An adjusting screw 51 is disposed in a threaded opening in the` ear 47 and engages a Wall of the opening 46, as is clear from FIGURE 5. The friction shoe 4S engages the.
shaft 16 to prevent free rotative movement thereof.
The shaft 16 is mounted in the sleeve unit 14, as illustrated, and is maintained against vertical accidental removal by a collar 50 secured to the shaft 16 by a setscrew 52. Accidental vertical movement downwardly of the shaft 16 is prevented by a split collar 54 which is clamped against removal from the shaft 16 by suitable machine screws 56. An integral ear 58 extends forwardly from the split collar 54 and includes a laterally extending lug 60. A socket member 62 is pivotally mounted on the ear 58 by a suitable stove bolt 64 and receives a steering shaft 66 on the free end of which is a hand grip 68. The socket member has an extension 70 which engages the lug 60 in the steering position of FIGURE 1. The steering shaft 66 may be pivoted upwardly into vertical position out of the way of occupants of the boat when not in use.
An air propeller motor 74 is shown in dotted lines mounted on the upper end of the shaft 16. This unit, which forms no part of the present invention, includes a Y Patented June 6, 19611 The thrust of the air propeller motor 74, in driving theV boat 20 forwardly, tends to rotate it forwardly about its bracket mounting. Hence, the effect at the bracket is at the bottom thereof on the inner face of the transom 19 and at the engagement points of the securing members 23 on the outer face, which tends to prevent the members 23 from becoming loose. Also, they spread vertically between the two engagement lines is great enough to prevent splitting of the top of the transom 19.
The vertical position of the shaftv 16 to the water may be easily adjusted by removing the pin 40 after rotating the locking leaf 42 to the full line position shown in FIG-k URE 6. The sleeve unit 14 may then be pivoted clockwise to deect the propeller 78 toward the surface of the Water, and the pin 40 reinserted in selected aligned openings 28.
The shaft 16 is mounted in the sleeve unit 14` for rotative movement through swinging movement of the steering shaft 66. In FIGURE 1, the air propeller motor 74 is illustrated in position for moving the boat 20 rearwardly. To move the boat 20 forwardly, the air propeller motor 74 faces` to the rear since this will dispose it further away from the boat occupants. The steering shaft 66 is swung through an angle of one hundred and .eighty degrees to accomplish the necessary rotation of theY shaft 16. The friction shoe 45 provides for adjustment of the freedom of movement of the shaft 16. It is not desirable to have the air propeller motor 74 freely rotatable during normal use thereof, which the friction shoe 45 adjusted to the desired degree eliminates.
The shaft 16 may be of greater length than illustrated, in which event the air propeller motor 74 will be at a higher level than shown. Such longer shaft Y16 can be lowered to engage the bottom thereof on that boat bottom should it be desired for stability, or otherwise.
It is manifest that there has been provided a mounting bracket for air propeller motors which fulfills thev objects and advantages sought therefor. Y
