Improved Bicycle Stand.
I, THEODOR SCHLAGINTWEIT, of 16 Regent Square, Lenzie, in the County
of Dumbarton, Merchant, do hereby declare the nature of this invention (as com-
municated to me by Josef Pfaller, of Kempten, Bavaria, in the German Empire)
to be as follows:-
The improved bicycle stand constituting this invention is composed of a vertical
rod or bar secured upon or having an extended base, the rod being made telescopic
and being provided with an adjustable bracket for supporting the cycle frame
below and a clamp for holding it upright at its upper end.
In using the bicycle stand the crank bracket or other part of the cycle frame is
rested on the supporting bracket which is or may be fitted to slide on the vertical
rod of the stand and is secured by a pinching screw or like means, whilst the clamp
which is jointed at the upper end of the telescopic portion of the vertical rod is
made to grasp or engage the upper cross bar or other part of the cycle frame, the
telescopic rod being lengthened or shortened as required and the parts secured.
together by a pinching screw.

I, THEODOR SCHLAGINTWEIT, of 16 Regent Square, Lenzie, in the County of
Dumbarton, Merchant, do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in
what manner the same is to be performed, as communicated to me, to be particularly
described and ascertained in and by the following statement :-
The invention is illustrated by the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 of which
represents the improved stand as constructed for holding a gentleman's bicycle and
Figure 2 as designed for holding a bicycle of the form used by ladies, each view
showing a bicycle supported thereon.
Referring to Figure 1 the improved stand constituting this invention is composed
of a vertical rod or bar A secured upon or having an extended base B, the rod A
being made with a telescopic portion C and being provided with an adjustable
bracket D for supporting the cycle frame below and a clamp E for holding it
upright at its upper end.
In using the bicycle stand the crank bracket or other part of the cycle frame
is rested on the supporting bracket D which is or may be fitted to slide on the
vertical rod A of the stand and is secured by a pinching screw F or like means,
whilst the clamp E which is jointed at the upper end of the telescopic portion C of
the vertical rod A is made to grasp or engage the upper cross bar or other part of
the cycle frame, the telescopic rod C being lengthened or shortened as required
and the parts secured together by a pinching screw G.

page_text: The lady's bicycle stand illustrated by Figure 2 is similar to that represented by
Figure 1 with this exception that the telescopic portion C of the rod A is hinged
at H as shown to permit of the clamp E being fixed to the seat pillar of the
bicycle.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of the said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is―

adjustable bracket D on the part A and a clamp E jointed to the rod C substantially
as described.
