Description

UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOHN Il. FELLOVS,IOF CINOINNATLOHIO.
IMPROVEMENT IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF VESSELS.
Specication forming part of Letters Patent No. 5,268, dated September 4, 1847.
To all whom, it may concern:
Be itknown that I, JOHN I-I. FELLOWS, of Cincinnati, in the county of Hamilton and State of Ohio, have invented a new and Improved Mode of Construct-ing Hulls for Steamboats and other Vessel so as to dispense with a timbered frame or what are called the ribs The nature of my invention consists in the use of stout longitudinal planking united by iron rods passing through the planking edgewise, starting from the keel, through the bottom and side planking, and also through the deck-beams, and there secured by nuts to be screwed down, so as to bring the deck-beams and plankin g firmly together; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the construction and operation of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawing, making a part ot' this specification, in which- A is to represent the longitudinal planking, and B the rods passing through the planking and deck-beams, in order to screw the whole together by the nuts C on the upper ends of the rods.
D are the deck-beams; E, the guards; F, the keel, and G the keelson.
The rods may be in one piece (extending from the keel to the deck-beams) or in short pieces, (only to go through three or more of the.planks,) if required.
The advantages of this mode of construct- What I claim herein as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The application of rods of iron passing through the longitudinal planking and screwing them together, thereby dispensing with the timbered frame, as are required in the present mode ot constructing hulls of vessels.
