Description
HENRY r. Meer-nava or roMALns, CALIFORNIA.
'Letters Patent No. 97,665, dated December 7, 1869.
IMPROVEMENT IN WIND-WEEELS.-
The Sohednlerefen'ed to in `those Letterslatent and making pai't'bf the name.
`to make and` use my said invention or improvement,
without furtherinvention vor experiment.
My invention relates to windmills, and consists principally in an improved manner of constructing the vanes composing the wheel, so that .the efficiency of the mill is much increased; This is eiected by form ving the venes, triangularly, `of metal, and bending one of the outer corners of each vane down toward the centre, where the third corner is secured, and holding the corner so bent by straps of iron. Braces extend forward from the outer Vends of the yanesto a central rod, by' which they are firmly supported. 'I
Referring to the accompanying drawings fora more complete explanation of my invention-- Figure 1 is a `front View of the wheel. Figure 2 is a side view. M A A are suitable arms, of wood, to which the vanes are fastened, and which arel braced laterally, as at B. Any suitable number of vanes may be used, but in the presentdrawngs four only are shown.
The vanes consistoi' triangular metallic plates, a, scout, that when laid flat, they will make a figure with as many sides'as there are arms. v OneY side of thetriangle is laid on the arm A, so
` that the interior point G is near the centre, and is then `firmly fastened, along the arm, to the outer point D, which7 when all are fastened to their respective arms, will leave the alternate exterior corners free. These corners are then bent inward toward the 'central point C, so as to form a curve, as at E.
Straps of-'ir.on,1-If",.arccnrved,l to t the bent edge E of each vane, andso strengthen and hold it in place.
The shaft G is extended ont in front of the wheel, i
and carries at its extremity, across, H, to which one end ofthe braces I I is fastened. The other end passes through the vanes and the arms A, near the outer ends, so as to brace them firmly.
The brake` J ifs operated by a rope, 4K, so as to check the speed'of the mill when desirable, and is kept from contact with the shaft, when notI in use,:-by the spring L. y
Thiswheel is strong, cheap, and durable, and will run well fronting the wind, or with the side toward it, but can be entirely stopped bytuming the back toward the Wind. l
Having thus described my invention,
I hat I claim .as new, and desire tov secure by Letters Patent, is
A Wind-wheel, composed of the Vanesa, forming the curve E, and constructed substantially as herein described.
Inwitness whereof, I have hereunto'set my hand and' seal. Y
, HENRY P. MCGLEAVE. [L. s.]

JOHN LITLE.
