This invention relates to improvements in propellers. a One of the ob] ects of the-present invention is the provision of a propeller of the double blade type, wherein the blades are arranged .onein advance of the other, with one blade 7 mounted upon the reduced portion. 2 of" a provided with a slightly greater curvature than the other blade to increase the action of the blades on the fluid. I
Another object of the present invention is the provision of a propeller of the double blade type, wherein the outer ends of one set of blades are curved toward the other blades and attached thereto, and the curvature of the individual blades is such as to provide for the use of the blades on any type of fluid, and
the blades are so arranged as to increase the pushing or pulling power of the blades in accordance with the direction in which they are rotating.
A further object of the present invention is the provision ofa propeller comprising two opposed sets of blades, one arranged in advance of the other, with one set of blades having their outer ends connected to the other set,
and wherein the blades are readily adapted for use for propelling airplanes, boats, or for other similar uses.
With the above and other objects in view,
the invention consists in the novel features of construction, the combination and arrange.
ment of parts hereinafter more fully set forth, pointed out in the claims and shown in the accompanying drawing wherein:
Figure 1 is a front elevation of a propeller constructedin accordance with my invention, with parts thereof broken away and illustrated in cross section;
Figure 2Vis a sectional view on the line 22 of Figure 1, with the blades in elev'ation' v F igure 3 is a detailed section on the line 33 of Figure 2; and, Figure '4: is a detailed section on the line '45 4-1 of Figure 2.
In constructing a propeller of this type, it
is to be understood that the pitch of the blades can be varied according to the use of the propeller, and-while the propeller in the present instance is disclosed at acertain angle 1931. J Serial No. 532,960."

upon a single sleeve 1;" This sleeve r ani be driven shaft and the reduced portion is *provided with a key 4:, whereby. the sleeve 1 can be keyed to the shaft.
In constructing the propeller, it I: .will 1 be apparent that the blades may be 'fojiined im, tegral with'the sleeve 1 or detachably con nected thereto, and in the. present instance,
the sleeve Iisformed atjone end with an annular flange "5, I and the if W {vhf *bladesjgenerally indicated at. 6, are provided with attaching ends 7 adapted tobearranged 1 iorp aj merabet een-ma "itwill be readily apparent than chan in-intimate contact with the flange 5"and bolted or otherwise'fconnected thereto means ofthebolts.8;- v 1 In Figures 3 -an,d 4:, the curvature of the,

Y
outer-ends of the laterallyfdisposed portions J- ;10 are provided with' apertured 'ears j :11, 'wherebythe bolts 12 1 or similar: fastening 'members may be used for connecting the laterallydisposed portions ll'ofytheouter ends Q "of the blades 16'. It will be noted that' -by curving the outer ends 50f" the blade'sl9j to ward theblades 6, the fluid'during the rotation of the propeller, will have 1 a} tendency the sameftypeas'theblad'es 6, the'lfluid man a "be carried; {back in a" comparatively larg ',volume, ofiering considerable resistance t9 the atmosphere when {used on-an f aeroplane,
