The revolution of the vanes is ac-
complished by means Of levers or
cranks fixed at the top of the vertical
spindies or shafts which are controlled
by hydraulic cylinders working hori-
zontally. If hydraulic power is not
available. water under steam pressure
would be sufficient.
The vanes are operated in any di-
rection by handles or levers placed on
the bridge or elsewhere as desired. One
movement of the hand may put the
brake in action; two levers may be
provided, one controlling the port and
the other the starboard side.
The strength of the bow lost at the
openings is compensated for by intro

BRAKES OPEN AND CLOSED.

brake is such that it will carry much
greater load than this with safety.
The shafts are each made in two
pieces which are connected by a socket
joint, sufficiently free fitting to admit
of considerable want of alignment.
When the brake is in use the water
flows freely around and behind each
vane or arrester, thus ensuring eff
cheney of action, A relief valve is
placed on each hydraulic cylinder to
enable the water to escape quickly in
case of sudden pressure therein through
the vanes being struck by a sea or a
solid object. The vanes would thus
yield elasticaIly before a sea. Or close
entirely if fouled by another ship. or
upon striking a rock.
I believe the new brakes have solved
the problem of controlling and sudden
~ stopping large ships at sea.
