PROPELLER FOR A MARINE PROPULSION SYSTEM.

摘要

A marine propulsion system comprising a push rod activated pins (170) which engageeccentric shaft (174) for unlocking a propeller base (190) so the base (190) canrotate around a transverse axis. The base (190) has an inclined suface (192) whichengages with an inclined surface (159) defining an opening in the propeller shub therefore locking the propeller blade (34) in position. The inclined surfaces(159, 192) are disengaged by rotation of the eccentric shaft (174) thus the propellerblades (34) can be rotated to adjust the pitch and then the inclined surfaces (159,192) re-engage to locking the propeller blade (34) in the pitch adjusted position.
