Model of A Chain Pump. Model of the cross section of a ship near the large mast, with four decks and a chain pump. The pump consists of a chain of buckets that are passed along a pump tube until the keel and rise along another tube; On the upper deck they go over a pentagonal wheel, which is driven by a stool and flywheel. The four decks are partially blanked and are supported by deck beams, which are equipped with eight different hollow metal knees: some are on the wooden knee that they cover, others on the road, some in the deckbar, others in the deckboards. Scale 1:20 (according to Obeenen)
