W.v WAIT. FLOATING STRUCTURE FOR WATER VELOOIPEDES. No. 468,850. Patented Feb. 16, 1892.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
IVESLEY WAIT, OF NEWBURG, NEW YORK.
FLOATING STRUCTURE FOR WATER-VELOCIPEDES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 468,850, dated February 16, 1892.
Application filed June 23,1391.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WESLEY WAIT, a citizen of theUnited States, residing at Newburg', in the county of Orange and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Floating Structures for ater- Velocipedes; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
My present invention has reference to floating structures for water-velocipedes and the like 5 and it consists, generally, in forming the body of the structure in three parts or sections secured together and in other features of construction, all of which will presently fully appear.
Referring to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification, Figure 1 illustrates in top plan view my improved floating structure designed for use in connection with a water-velocipede. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same; and Fig. 3, a View similar to Fig. 2, but showing the different sections of the body disconnected.
A represents the body of the structure, which is constituted of the central portion 1), formed of aluminium, steel, or other suitable material, and which is provided with the internal screw-threads, as shown, which receive and hold the screw-threaded inner ends of the end portions 0 c. The end portions, which are tapered from the inner ends, are constituted of sheet metal, preferably aluminium, and the edges are flanged outward and riveted, as at (Z. c e represent ears, which Serial No. 397,263. (No model.)
are secured to the body by rivets or screws and which extend above the body and are provided with holes, whereby the rods ff are secured and the two bodies shown in Fig. 1 connected together.
By reason of this construction Iam enabled to combine strength with extreme portability. It can be manufactured at small cost and can, when the sections are disconnected, be readily transported by reason of the compactness of the parts.
I claim 1. In a floating structure for \\-'atei'-vel0cipedes and the like, the combination, with two tapered bodies formed of a single sheet of metal riveted at its edges and having its inner ends screw-threaded, as described, of a sleeve for connecting the said bodies, having internal screw-threads for connection with the screw-threaded ends of the bodies, substantially as set forth.
2. In a floating structure for water-velocipedes and the like, the combination, with two tapered bodies formed of a single sheet of metal and having screw-threaded inner ends, of a central sleeve having internal screwthreads for such ends, ears secured to the bodies and sleeve, and rods secured to said ears for connecting two similar structures, as and for the purpose setforth.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
WESLEY WAIT.
