ANCHOR-COMPARTIVIENT.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June 11, 1907.
Application filecl November 24, 1906. Serial No. 344,947.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, SIMON A. FRASER and MATHEW JAcKsoN, citizens of the United States, residing at Lorain, in the county of Lorain and State of Ohio, have invented new and useful Improvements in Anchor- Compartments, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to means for stowing or housing an anchor on a ship, and it comprises essentially a compartment or pocket made in the side of the vessel into which the anchor may be drawn and stowed. The pocket is made watertight by means of a movable lid or door which can be opened or closed as desired.
By housing an anchor in a watertight compartment, leakage, as through an ordinary hawsc hole in a rough sea, is prevented. Also, the anchor is carried inboard and cannot become entangled with hawsers or other tackle, nor catch upon wharves, other vessels, or other objects. Also, wear or injury to the hull plates incident to swinging or motion of the anchor is prevented.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a side elevation of a part of the bow of a vessel provided with the improve ment. Fig. 2 is a section on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1, with the port lid closed. Fig. 3 is a section on the line 3-3 of Fig. 1 with the lid closed.
Referring specifically to the drawings, 6 indicates the hull plates of the bow, and 7 indicates the deck. The compartment or housing is located preferably directly under the deck, and it consists of a casing 8 built inboard on the hull, inside of an opening in the hull in which the lid 10 fits. Said lid swings outwardly and is preferably beveled at the edges to make a close and comparatively watertight fit when shut. The compartment has an inclined bottom, leading outwardly, so that the anchor will readily slide out when dropped. The compartment is of suflicient size and of proper shape to receive and completely house the anchor, which is indicated at 1 1. Extending from the deck, and dovni through the rear wall of the anchor housing, is a pipe 12- sufliciently large to receive therein the stock 14 of the anchor, to
which the chain 16 is attached. WVhen the anchor is weighed and housed the stock thereof enters into the pipe, and being drawn comparatively snug, the anchor is held in place against movement. When the anchor is cast it will slide out from the compartment, the chain paying out through the pipe,being connected to a Windlass on deck, as usual.
The lid 10 is hung upon two arms which swing beside the compartment. Each arm consists of an upper part 17 pivotally hung at the top from a cross rod 18, and a lower segmental part 19 the outer end of which works through a stuffing box 9 in the side of the vessel. anchor compartment by a cross bar 20, and when the arms are swung the lid is opened or closed accordingly.
As a means for swinging the arms and opening or closing the lid there is provided a piston and its rod 15 connected to one of the arms at or about the elbow thereof and operated by steam or other pressure in a cylinder as at 21 and controlled by a suitable valve in the supply pipe thereto. Obviously other means, either hand or power devices, may be provided for opening or closing the lid, but the means shown are operated from the inside and require no outside tackle. The compartment can be built up close under the upper deck so that no floor space is taken up, and the shape and size thereof may be varied to accommodate anchors of various kinds.
We claim:
.1. An anchor housing for ships, comprising a casing built within the hull and opening through the same, and a closure for. said opening comprising a lid swinging outwardly, and bent supporting arms hung within the hull and extending through the same to connection with the lid.
2. An anchor housing for ships, comprising a casing built within the hull and opening through the same, a lid for said opening fitting within the same, supporting arms pivoted at the top within the hull above said opening and having segmental lower parts extending outwardly through the hull to conneotion with the lid, and means connected to said arms to swing the lid.
3. An anchor housing for ships, comprising a casing within the hull and opening These arms are connected behind the through the same, a lid for said opening, connames to this specification in the presence of structed to move to and from the same and tWo subscribing Witnesses.
to fit snugly therein substantially flush with SIMON A. FRASER.
