MOTOR DRIVEN WINCH FOR ANCHOR LIFT 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 Filed Dec. 19, 1960 (fink/e: r Jean/u? Paa/ Pecora M QA w ATTOP/VE) United States Patent 3,124,336 MOTQR DRIVEN WINCH FOR ANCHOR LIFT Charles T. Scanlin, 5008 Ward, and Paul J. Pecora, 1113 Pearson, Houston, Tex. Filed Dec. 19, 1960, Ser. No. 76,650 1 Claim. (Cl. 254-186) This invention relates to new and useful improvements in a motor driven winch for an anchor lift.
it is an object of this invention to provide a winch for an anchor lift having novel means for raising and lowering an anchor.
it is another object of the invention to provide a winch having a novel means of transmission of power from a motor to a drum and having a novel clutch for engaging and disengaging the drum with the rotating means.
It is still another object of the invention to provide a motor driven winch for raising and lowering the anchor of a small boat having novel means for controlling the raising and lowering operation.
With the above and other objects in view, the invention has relation to certain novel features of construction, operation and arrangement of parts more particularly defined in the following specifications and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein:
FIGURE 1 is a side elevational view of a boat, showing the winch installed therein.
FIGURE 2 is a side elevational view of the winch, taken from one side thereof.
FiGURE 3 is a side elevational View of the winch, taken from the other side thereof,
FIGURE 4 is a cross sectional top view taken on the line 4-4 of FIGURE 3.
FIGURE 5 is a cross sectional end view taken on the line '5-5 of FIGURE 3, and
FIGURE 6 is an enlarged fragmentary view of the clutch employed.
Referring now more particularly to the drawings, the numeral 1 designates a boat, such as a small outboard motor boat, having an anchor rope 2 and anchor retainer 3. A base 4 is mounted at any suitable place in the boat, such as on the floor of the boat under the bow deck, and a fixed bracket 5 is mounted on the base 4 in which the pulley 6 is rotatably mounted. An axle 7 extends through the pulley 6 and is rotated thereby and on the axle 6' is mounted the anchor rope drum 8. A guard 9 is mounted on the bracket 5 and extends around a portion of the pulley 6. On one side of the bracket 5 and rotatably mounted on the axle 7 is the ratchet wheel 19. A spring loaded dog 11 is yieldingly maintained in contact with the ratchet wheel and a control cable 12 leads from the dog 11 to a suitable location in the boat such as on the dashboard convenient to the hand of the user.
An upstanding supporting member 13 is mounted on the base 4 and a pivotally mounted bracket 14 is positioned on the base 4 adjacent thereto. A control cable housing 15 is anchored to the member 13 and a control cable 16 extends through the housing 15 and is secured at one end to the pivotally mounted bracket 14 and the other end mounted at any suitable place in the boat as on the dashboard convenient to the hand of the user. An axle 17 is mounted in the upper end of the bracket 14 and the pulley 18 is mounted in the upper end of the bracket 14 on said axle 17. A belt as 19 connects the pulley 6 with the small pulley 20 which is integral with the large pulley 18-, and a belt 21 connects the pulley 18 with the drive 3,124,336 Patented Mar. 10, 1964 pulley 22 of the electric motor 23. The motor 23 is mounted in the bracket 14.
The bracket 14 has four sections, two on each side, the lower sections being pivotally mounted to the U- shaped member 30, which is bolted to the base 4 as by bolts 28, 23, and the upper sections 24, 24 having the extended fingers 25, 25 in which vertical slots 26, 26 are formed to receive the bolts 27, 27 where it may be adjustab-ly mounted on the lower sections. The upper portion of the lower sections and the lower portion of the upper sections are formed to provide an opening through which the drive shaft of the motor 23 extends.
A solenoid switch 29 is mounted on the bracket 14 to aid in starting the motor 23. An electric conduit 31 extends from the solenoid switch 29 to any suitable location in the boat, as the dashboard thereof, convenient to the hand of the user.
When it is desired to raise the anchor, the control cable 16 is manipulated to rock the bracket 14 forwardly, removing tension from the belt 19, permitting it to slip on the pulley 20, and the switch 29 is activated to start the motor 23, and the control cable is then moved in the opposite direction, rocking the bracket 14 rearwardly, causing the pulley 20 to rotate the pulley '6 through the belt 19, and the drum 8 is rotated, drawing the anchor rope thereon until the anchor is raised. The dog 11 will prevent the drum 8 from rotating in the opposite direction after the anchor has been raised and the motor 23 stopped. When it is desired to lower the anchor, the cable 16 is manipulated so that the bracket 14- is moved -forwardly to disconnect the pulley 6 and the control 12 is manipulated to withdraw the dog 11 from the ratchet wheel 16 and the drum 8 will freely rotate. The two piece bracket 1 4 permits accurate adjustment of the bracket so that the pivotal movement will apply and relieve tension on the belt 19 as needed to move the pulley 6 into and out of rotation.
While the foregoing is considered a preferred form of the invention, it is by way of illustration only, the broad principle of the invention being defined by the appended claim.
What we claim is:
In an anchor winch, a base member, a bracket mounted on said base member, said bracket being formed of an upper and lower section, the lower section being pivotally mounted on said base member and the upper section being mounted at one end on said lower section and being vertically adjustable thereon, a motor mounted on said lower section having a drive shaft extending therefrom, a pulley on said drive shaft, a large pulley and a small pulley coaxially mounted for unitary rotation on the other end of said upper section, a drive belt for imparting rotation [from said drive shaft pulley to said large and small pulley, a drum rotatably mounted on said base member, a dnum pulley on said drum, a belt mounted on said small pulley and said drum pulley imparting rotation from said small pulley to said drum pulley when said bracket is pivoted to place tension on said latter belt and to discontinue said rotation when said bracket is pivoted to relieve the tension on said latter belt.
