Improvements in Spring Wheels.
Year: 1898

page_text: Date of Application, 9th Sept., 1898-Accepted, 21st Jan., 1899
Improvements in Spring Wheels.
We, PAUL FROHLICH, Manufacturing Engineer, and RUDOLF VON DER LINDE,
Manufacturer, both of Viersen, in the Empire of Germany, do hereby declare the
nature of this invention and in what manner the same is to be performed, to be
particularly described and ascertained in and by the following statement:-
-
The improvement the subject of the present invention has reference to those
cycles in which the pneumatic tyre, now in use, is replaced by spring rims, in
which spiral springs are inserted in a double rim.
It has been found in practice that the rims of such cycles often break, owing
to the outer rim always assuming an elliptical form in consequence of the pres-
sure exercised upon it.
Now the object of the present invention is, to secure both rims in their posi-
tion towards each other; and, at the same time, to give the outer rim increased
stability, in such a way that any chance of breakage of the rim is absolutely
excluded. The support, which at the same time is developed into a spoke, also
guides the inner rim, making it impossible for the latter to tip over.
The annexed drawing in which Figure 1 is a side elevation of the wheel, and
Figure 2 is a plan taken at A, A, Figure 1, represents the invention.
The improvement consists in a ring concentric with the hub a, and at some
distance from it; the ring being of a moderate width, and provided with holes
at c.
These holes e serve for the reception of the heads of the tie rods d, one
end of which is fixed to the inner side of the concentric ring b, by means of
nipples, or in some other suitable manner; whilst their other end, after passing
through openings c¹ in rim e, is so screwed, rivetted, or otherwise fastened into
hollows g in rim f that a rigid connection is formed between the rim f and
the inner ring e. The tie rods d, which may also be developed into spokes, are
arranged in any number, and of any thickness.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, we declare that what we
claim is;
In cycles or vehicle wheels in which spring is produced by spiral springs
between double rims, the concentric ring b, and tie-rods & secured to the ring
at one end, and at the other to the outer rim f; and passing through the inter-
mediate rim e: substantially as set forth,

Improvement in Tobacco Pipes, Cigar, and Cigarette Mouthpieces.
I, JAMES ALLEN DEWHURST, 26, Chapel Street, Salford, in the County of
Lancashire, Electro-metallurgist, do hereby declare the nature of this invention
to be as follows:-
The object of my invention is to make a pipe; cigar or cigarette holder which
will obviate the liability of the nicotine, saliva or other substance passing into
the mouth of the smoker.
To effect this object I construct an external hollow bridge of metal or other
substance leading from the stem or front portion of the pipe, cigar or cigarette
holder to the mouthpiece portion there being no hollow through connection
between the stem & mouthpiece except by the hollow, external bridge.
The mouthpiece screws or fits into the stem in the usual ways.
The bridge is fixed perpendiculary on the top of the stem, and mouth piece.
The bridge may consist of a tube made of metal; vulcanite; rubber; glass, or
other suitable substance or combination of the same. I fix the bridge by making
a hole in the stem, and also one in the mouth piece; into which the bridge ends
fit, and is held into position by means of one, or two clips, or by the aid of screws,
or plugs.
The bridge may be in two portions, one portion being fixed to the stem the
other portion to the mouth piece, and the top ends of the bridge being so made
that they will slide into one another when the mouth piece is pushed into the
stem; or if the mouth piece screws into the stem the bridge ends are coupled
together by a screw, or "slide.
This invention may be fitted to most of the ordinary tobacco pipes.
I, JAMES ALLEN DEWHURST, of 26, Chapel Street, Salford, Electro-metallurgist,
do hereby declare the nature of this invention, and in what manner the same is
to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the follow-
ing statement:-
This invention relates to the stems and mouthpieces of tobacco pipes and to
cigar and cigarette holders, and its object is to prevent condensation products and
other liquid matters from passing into the smoker's mouth.

page_text: JAMES LEE, The Poplars, Brinnington, Stockport, Musical Instrument Dealer,
do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:
My invention has for its purpose, to provide a ready simple neat, safe convenient
and inexpensive means of carrying music inside of mandoline case's.
Heretofore the common way has been to fold the music, and then place the
same upon the top of mandoline (when inside of case), thereby putting pressure
upon the mandoline, endangering the breaking of the same, forcing the bridge
out of place, and breaking strings.
To overcome these defects I provide a pocket in mandoline case's so made or
constructed as to protect the instrument from the music.
The pocket is placed inside the lid thus preventing the necessity of altering
the shape of present cases, and be more convenient to take music in or out of
case without disturbing the mandoline.
The pocket may be provided with strong elastic bands across the pocket to
hold music in place away from mandoline.
The elastic bands may be used in some cases without pocket.

the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and
by the following statement:-
My improvement relates principally to the carrying of music in mandoline
cases without injury to the instrument and in a convenient and safe form.
This is accomplished by providing a simple neat and effective pocket A on
the inside of lid E of case which may be made of leather, cloth, wood, metal or
any other suitable material.
The pocket A may be stitched to lid E of case or fastened in any other suitable
manner or may form part of same.
The pocket A may have strong bands of any material to hold music in place

page_text: away
from the instrument or may have any suitable catch B or fastening or arrange-
ment of lid C to effectually close same.
Having now particularly described the nature of my improvement and in
what manner the same is carried out, I declare that what I claim is ;-
-
The fitting of a receptacle inside of a mandoline case which has for its purpose
the safe carrying in a convenient form of music in such a manner as not to
interfere with the withdrawal of the instrument and in such form that the music
will not press upon and damage the instrument.

An Improved Tag or Holder for Hat Cords and the like, applicable
also for other purposes.
I, ALFRED BRELSE, of 15, Aldermanbury, London, E.C., Manufacturer, do hereby
declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the same is to be per-
formed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following
statement.-
My improved tag or holder for hat cords and the like enables the cord or band
to be readily secured or fastened to the hat or bonnet without sewing.
As will be seen on reference to the accompanying drawing, in which Figures 1
to 6 inclusive ale detailed and separate views of my improved tag or holder A,
and Figures 7 and 8 diagrams showing the tag or holder adapted to the ends of an
elastic band or cord B, and secured in position after having been inserted through
the body of the hat or bonnet C, the improved tag or holder comprises a flat plate
of metal A stamped or other wise formed to assume the shape shown in Figures 1
and 4. It is then bent into a cylindrical tubular form Figures 2 and 5, longi-
tudinal sections of which appear at Figures 3 and 6, so that the elastic or other
band or cord B can be passed lengthwise therethrough and the ends clamped or
squeezed by the body of the metal holder A or gripped and retained therein by
teeth or projections 6, Figures 4 and 6, by indentations or otherwise. It will be
seen that the ends of the holder, when the plate A 18 bent into the required cylın-
drical shape, assume an angular or bevelled formation as at a. This angular for-
mation of the ends of the tag or holder is a very essential feature in my invention
as it is obvious that the tag or holder can thus be readily forced through the material
of which the hat is composed and its non return effectually prevented by the said
peculiar formation of the angular or shaped ends a, the strain on the cord or band
tending the more securely to retain the tag or holder in position. If desired, the
holder A may be of welded or weldless tube, instead of being stamped from the
sheet, but otherwise finished as above described.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what
I claim 18:
A tag or holder for hat and other cords comprising a plate A. stamped or other-
wise formed with angular or shaped ends a and teeth 6, the plate A being then
bent into a tubular form for gripping the cord ends B and inserted through the
hat C, the shaped locking enda a acting in the manner and for the purpose specified.

COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
Improvements relating to Table Cutlery.
I, ALBERT THOMAS LEES, of 139, Arundel Street, City of Sheffield, Cutlery Manager,
do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the same is
to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the
following statement:―
My invention refers to improvements in table cutlery and more particularly to the
method of attaching the handles thereto, more especially when the handles are made
of xylonite and like substances which are liable to shrink.
The invention is illustrated in the annexed sheet of drawings.
Fig. 1, represents the handle of a table knife as attached to the blade.
Fig. 2, shows different views of the parts detached. The object of the invention
is to attach the handle to the blade A in such a manner as to conceal the shrinkage,
or separation from shrinkage, between the handle and the bolster part, and to
continue the support after such shrinkage, given by the bolster to the end of the
handle.
To accomplish this object I form a recess R, in the underside of the bolster, and
round the tang T, by punches or sinking tools when the bolster B, is heated, either
when forging the blade or afterwards. This recess is made to receive the end of the
handle C, and is made of a suitable depth to prevent any shortening or shrinking of
the handle from becoming apparent.
"
The tang T, may be made of any required length either short or as a through-
tang," but I prefer to use a jagged or roughened tang, and to drive the handle upon
it, which makes it quite secure.
I am aware that a bolster has had a collar soldered upon it to form a recess and
that handles have been fitted therein by reducing the end so as to produce a shoulder,
but I avoid this expensive method of inanufacture, and obtain a better result at a
less cost.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion, and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is :-
1. A table knife or table fork, having the end of the handle in its full size,
inserted into a recess sunk round the tang into the solid bolster, for the purpose
specified, and as hereinbefore described and shown.
2. In the manufacture of table cutlery, sinking a recess R, in the underside of the
bolster B, round the tang T, and fitting the end of the handle therein, such handle C,
having a tang-hole to receive the tang, as hereinbefore described and set forth.

Improvements in Photographic Printing Frames.
We, JOHN WILKINSON, and ALFRED WILKINSON, both of Oswald Street,
Manchester, in the County of Lancaster, Photographic Apparatus Manufacturers,
do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the same is
to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the
following statement:-
This invention relates to an improvement in photographic printing frames:
The object of this invention is to facilitate either the examination of the progress
of the work or the removal of the print from the frame.
In the accompanying drawing Fig. 1 is a plan view and Fig. 2 a sectional edge
view of a photographic printing frame with our invention applied.
Fig. 3 is a plan view representing a modification of the same invention.
In these views similar letters refer to similar parts. In a photographic printing
frame as a we form semi-circular recesses & preferably at opposite corners as
shown in Fig. 1. We secure one end of each of the pressure springs c and c¹
to one of the sides of the frame by means of a stud & so that said springs may
swivel, the free end of each spring being retained in a groove e or el formed in
the interior edge of the opposite side of the frame. In order to insert the free
ends of the aforesaid pressure springs into the grooves e or e¹ said free ends are
pressed down the semi-circular recesses and passed into the grooves e or el
respectively. When the ends of the springs are required to be withdrawn from
the aforesaid grooves e or e¹ they are pressed round until they come to the semi-
circular recesses b as indicated by dotted lines in Fig. 1 when they will rise and
release the flap g. In a modification of our invention shown in Fig. 3 the com-
pression springs c and care pivotted in the centre and semi-circular recesses b
are cut in each corner and at or near the centre of the inner side of the frame,
each of the ends of said springs being retained in the grooves e* and can be
removed in the manner herein before described.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this our
said invention and in what manner the same is to be performed we declare that
what we claim is:-
1st. In photographic printing frames the use of semi-circular recesses as b in
combination with grooves as e or el by which to introduce into said grooves the
ends of the compression springs that are employed for keeping the back of the
frame in position when printing from a negative substantially as herein before
described.

Improvements in Lace Tags.
KATE DRUSILLA STEVENSON, 16, North End Avenue, Portsmouth, Married
Woman, do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the
same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by
the following statement:-
The novelty of the knot-clip tag consists in clipping any knot when tied by
means of a variety of split spring tags, made of any metal or substance with
sufficient spring power to hold & grip the knotted loops or knot, whether of boot
laces or any other laces of any description, leather, tape, ribbon, string, rope, wire
or any suitable material to which tags can be attached, which once knotted are
gripped on both sides of the knot as per Figure 1 of drawing, or only one may be
used of these split tags by gripping together the two loops of the knot, as shown
in Fig. 2, or the knot itself may be gripped in any direction & thus prevent its
becoming untied. The knot-clip tags are attached at each end of the material in
the same way as ordinary tags, & are made of one piece of any kind of metal or
substance of suitable elasticity or spring power to recoil back to its original shape
when in use. One half of each tag is made on the principle of an ordinary tag
holding the lace, or whatever material, firmly & from thence is split up to the end
of the tag in a variety of spring shapes, one section of the split always being a
little longer than the other, the other portion of the split being slightly curved
back at the end, to allow an easy insertion of the material clipped.
Figure No. 3, is a double waved spring from the split clip.
Figure No. 4, has a curved spring resting on the flat surface of the other half
of the split clip.
Figure No. 5, is a very slight double curved spring clip.
Figure No. 6, is a simple split spring clip.
Figure No. 7, is a waved spring resting on the flat surface of the other portion
of the split clip.
Figure No. 8, is a very slight double curved spring clip forming a small circular
opening at the curvature.
The shape of the knot-clip tag is either round or flat, the length & size varying
for different purposes. For boot laces the complete tag is small enough to pass
through the eyelets of the boot or shoe as any ordinary tag would.
Having now particularly described & ascertained the nature of my said
invention & in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what
I claim is:
That the novelty consists in a tag & clip combined, complete in itself, to act as
clip & to answer the purpose of the ordinary shoe lace, & every other in which a
tag is suitable & useful.

Improvements in Hat-boxes or Cases.
JOSEPH TUCKER, 79, 83 and 85, Newington Green Road, N., Outfitter, do hereby
declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
In the interior of the hat box or case I have fitted to the top, bottom, and four
sides, projections, cylinders, or circles of a sufficient size upon which the
hat can be placed, such being kept in position by a pin or other contrivance, which
being readily removable enables the hat to be withdrawn without displacing or
crushing other hats that may be similarly held in the other portions of the box,
so that a box or case can be constructed to hold one or more hats on each side, as
also at the bottom and top, (or lid) of such box or case. I may also have the top,
and sides hinged, so that when desired the side or sides can be unfastened by a
simple catch or other contrivance, thus enabling one or more of the hats to be
removed. I could also if necessary have loose interior slides upon which the
projections or circles could be attached, so by lifting out either slide the hat would
be readily removable. The projections, or circles, which are attached to the top
bottom and sides could be fitted with loose, or hinged covers or lids so as to enable
them to be used for packing therein any suitable commodity. The boxes or cases
could be made of any suitable material, and could be made water, & dust tight by
closing on india rubber or other flanges.

A Device for Teaching Musical Notation and other purposes.
We, CHARLES AUGUSTUS BURY, of 74, Coleman Street, in the City of London,
Architect and Surveyor, and FREDERICK THOMAS RUSHTON, of 14, New Inn,
Strand, in the County of Middlesex, Solicitor, do hereby declare the nature of
this invention and in what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly
described and ascertained in and by the following statement:
Our invention consists of a representation of the key board of a pianoforte, of
movable notes, rests and other signs employed in written or printed music made
in cardboard, wood, metal or other suitable material, and a diagram or diagrams
illustrating the ordinary treble and bass staves and either with or without leger
lines.
The diagram is so arranged that the movable notes or signs can be placed at
any point or position thereon and can if desired be held in position by means of
a pin and socket or by gravity or they can be made to fit in and slide along a
groove or grooves so that any desired note or sign can be placed on any part of
the lines or spaces on the diagram. The teacher will have a diagram of sufficient
size to be readily seen and distinguished and the pupils will themselves have
before them diagrams similar in design.
The method of teaching the notes to the pupils will be for the teacher to place
the movable notes or signs on his diagram in any desired position. The pupils
will then be told to place the movable notes or signs with which they will be
supplied on the diagrams furnished to them in similar positions to those indicated
on the diagram used by the teacher who will tell the pupils the names given to
the notes or signs in their various positions. The manual operation of placing
the notes or signs on the diagram will tend to fix their names on the minds of the
pupils and will interest them in the matter and as a further means of teaching
them the teacher will cause them to touch on the key board the note correspond-
ing to the sign on the diagram.
The diagrams and movable notes may also be used by a person composing music
for the purpose of indicating any air or musical idea before writing it down.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed we declare that what
we claim is:-
1. A diagram illustrating the staves usually employed for the notation of music
in combination with movable notes or signs and a diagram illustrating a key
board substantially as described.

Improvements in connection with Covers of Pneumatic Tyres.
We, HENRY PEACOCK, Tailor, and EDWARD PEACOCK, Waiter, both of Tilling-
ham Square, Southminster, Essex, do hereby declare the nature of this invention
and in what manner the same is to be performed to be particularly described and
ascertained in and by the following statement:—
Our invention relates to improvements in connection with covers of pneumatic
tyres and the object is to provide a protector for the inner tube. In carrying our
invention into practice we proceed in or in about the following manner.
We
provide a strip of wadding or other suitable material of sufficient length and width
and we attach the said wadding by an adhesive or otherwise to a corresponding
strip of butter muslin or any other suitable material, the edge of which we turn
up over the edge of the wadding strip. Another strip of muslin or other suitable
material is then stitched or otherwise fastened over the wadding so as to retain
the wadding between the two strips of muslin or other material. The protecting
band made substantially as described we attach to the inner surface of the cover
by any suitable adhesive or means. If the cover is lined with canvas or other
material as usually the case we place the wadded band either outside the canvas
or other lining or between it and the cover, and it may be held in position by
any suitable adhesive.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed we declare that what
we claim is:-
-
Protectors for the inner tubes of pneumatic tyres each protector consisting
essentially of a band of wadding or other suitable material covered or lined with
butter muslin or other suitable material to which covering or lining the wadding
may be attached by an adhesive or by other means, the wadded band thus provided
being attached to the inner surface of the cover of the tyre or to the canvas or
other lining of the said cover or between the said canvas or other lining and the
cover, the whole substantially as described in the above specification.

I, GEORGE JOHNSON GALLOWAY, of 3, Glendale Avenue, Wood Green, London, N.,
Merchant, do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what manner
the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and
by the following statement:-
This invention relates to the bands or labels usually applied to cigars and
which have indicated upon them the brand or other particulars. The objects of
the present invention are, to apply the gum or other adhesive matter by which
the ends of the band are secured to one another, in such a way as to prevent the
said gum when the band is placed on the cigar, coming into contact with the
cigar and damaging same by its moisture or by causing the band to stick to
the cigar and tear, or otherwise injure the leaf when the band is torn off, and
further, it has for its object to provide a ready means for removing the band
from the cigar when required.
In carrying the invention into effect, I construct the blank from which the
band is formed of somewhat greater length than is usual, so that when the said
band is formed and placed on the cigar, such extra length will be left free and
form a short tab, which may be readily seized by the fingers and the band torn
off. Instead of applying the gum to the end of the band upon its plain or
unornamented side as is at present the practice, I apply the gum upon the
other or ornamented side so that when the band is joined up the gummed
surface is outermost and the gum when the opposite end is pressed thereon does
not moisten the cigar or cause the band to adhere thereto, obviating the chances
of damaging the cigar by tearing -the leaf when the band is torn off.,
In order that the invention may be the better understood drawings are
appended in which:
Fig. 1 is a plan of a blank showing the gum applied thereto.
Fig. 2 is a view showing the band formed, and
Fig. 3 is a view of the band applied to a cigar showing the tab for removing
or tearing the band therefrom.
A, is the band which may be of paper or other suitable material, and which
may be of any desired outline. B, is the gummed portion, C, is the ornamented
surface, and D, the extension forming the tab.
The gum is first of all applied to the end as shown in Fig. 1, after which
the band is formed, the piece D, being left free as shown in Figs. 2 and 3.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
invention, and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what
I claim is:
1. The improved band for cigars constructed substantially as described and
shown in the accompanying drawings.

page_text: 2. In forming a cigar band applying the gum to the outer or ornamented
surface of the material forming the said band for the purposes herein set forth
and as shown by the appended drawings.

I, AUGUSTE FRITZ, of 64,, Unter den Linden, Berlin, in the German Empire,
Dressmaker, do hereby declare the nature of this invention, and in what manner
the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and
by the following statement:-
-
The hooks and eyes heretofore in use have several defects, amongst others that
after a short time, if they are not very carefully sewn on, they draw out and cause
the garment to gape open, a disadvantage which is more observable in tight-fitting-
garments.
In the double-eyed hooks and eyes forming the subject matter of the present
invention the above mentioned defects are completely avoided.
In the accompanying sheet of drawings Figures 1 and 2 are respectively a front
and a side view of a hook constructed in accordance with the invention, and
Figures 3 and 4 respectively a front and side view of a corresponding eye.
The hooks and eyes are each made of a bent piece of wire a the shanks of which
are so bent round that they each form a pair of eyes 6 61 both of which serve for
fastening the hooks and eyes to the hem or other part of the garment. In order
to increase their resisting power the eyes are placed farther apart than usual. The
hooks and eyes are bent inwards at the middle of both shanks as shown in
Figures 1 and 3 and their power of resisting a pull through the upper elastic pair
of eyes is considerably increased.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of the said
invention, and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what
I claim is:-
First. The improvement in hooks for garments and the like, which consists in
providing each shank of the hook with a second sewing-on eye b, substantially as
described.
Second. The improvement in eyes for garments and the like, which consists in
providing each shank of the eye with a second sewing-on eye b, substantially as
described.
