Description
7 @met i @itin Letters Patent No. 85,126, defeal December 22, 1868.
IMPRovLMENT 1N SAFETY-Barmer@ APPARATUS.
The Bbhedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.
To all whom t't mwy' concern Be it known that I, WILLIAM H. PITT, of the city and county of Philadelphia, in the State of Pennsyl- Vania, have invented a new and useful Apparatus for the Safety of Bathers at the sea-shore, and the shores of harbors, bays, and rivers; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact dosoription of the consti-nothin and operation of the saine, reference being had to the annexed drawing, making a part of this speeiiioation, which vis a perspective View of the whole apparatus.
l sub'tend a hawser of any desired size, as at A A A, between any desired number of anchored buoys, B B B, suiiioient to maintain the hawser, or rope, on the surface of the water, at any desired distance from the shore.
l connect said hawser, or rope, with the shore by other ropes of any desired site, which said ropes are made fast on theshoro in any desired manner, as at G.
From the nlain or outside hawserA A is suspended a netting, C, which is keptA in a vperpendicular vposition by weights, of lead or'other heavy material, as at ccc,
-said netting preventing persons from being carried out beyond the hawser bythe'undertow', and preventing I the 'access of sharks to the waters within the line of said hawsers. Y, y
To the main ,and other hawsers, smaller lines are connected, on the ends of which are suspended small oats, H H H, constructed of cork, India rubber, or other suitable material, of any desired size and colors, which said lioats keep s aid smaller lines near the surface, and within the reach of leathers.
0n the larger and smaller buoys or oats are flags, N N N, of any desired color, which are intended to mark the location of said buoys,
The following is the operation of iny apparatus:
The bathers are confined to the space between the outside hawsers A vA A andthe shore. The small iioats and large bnoys indicate where they may grasp a rope or line, whenever they may need it, and the netting prevents the possibility of theirdrifting'beyoud the outside hawser, or line, whiohis anohored at,
suoient distance from the shore to aford'all the room that is required.
The arrangement of netting, hawsers, or ropes, subtended from anchored buoys, substantially as above described, for the purpose of providing a means of support and safety to bathers at the sea,and other shores.
WILLIAM' LBITT.
