PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
An Improved Contrivance for Attachment to Perambulators, Cycles,
Dog Carts, and other Vehicles, specially applicable for Holding
Umbrellas, Sticks, and the like.
I RICHARD BERRY FULLER, of 37 Arlington Street Hull in the County of
Yorks Engineer, do hereby declare the nature of this invention, to be as
follows:-
The object of my invention is to produce a simple contrivance for fixing to
cycles, perambulators, traps, and other suitable vehicles, for the purpose of holding
sticks, umbrellas and the like.
I construct my invention as follows:-1 employ two pieces of metal, one of which
is preferably bent at right angles, these two metal pieces have a piece of india-
rubber or the like between them, the whole being fastened together by means of
screws or holts or in any suitable manner.
A hole is made through both pieces of metal and the indiarubber padding
between them, the said hole receives preferably the pointed end of the umbrella
or the like, a book is employed to receive the thicker or handle end. The angle
plate is screwed or otherwise attached to the vehicle as is also the hook.
When wanting to place a stick or umbrella into the suspender, the taper end is
pushed into the hole formed in the plate and rubber, and is tightly gripped by the
said rubber, the other end of the umbrella or the like is placed on the hook, it is
thus held securely in position, it being almost impossible for it to slip out. For
cycles the plates and book may be made as clips to clip the frame of the machine.

I construct my invention as follows:-I employ two pieces of metal, one of
which A is preferably beut at right angles the other B is flat, these two metal
pieces have a piece of india-rubber, C, or the like between then, the whole being

A hole is made through both pieces of metal, and the india-rubber padding
between them, the said hole in the india-rubber is less than the holes through the
plates, and receives preferably the pointed end of the umbrella or the like, a
hook E is employed to receive the thicker or handle end.
The angle plate is screwed or otherwise attached to the vehicle as is also the
hook.
When wanting to place a stick or umbrella into the holder, the taper end is
pushed into the hole formed in the plate and rubber, and is tightly gripped by the
said rubber, the other end of the umbrella or the like is placed on the hook, it is
thus held securely in position, it being almost impossible for it to slip out.
For cycles the plate and hook may be made as clips F, to clip aud fasten to the
frame of the machine.

tion, and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I
