Complete Specification Left. 28th Jan. 1898-Accepted, 2nd Apr., 1898
I, GEORG MICHAEL WEIDENHAMMER, of 104, Eschersheimerland Strasse, Frank-
fort-on-the-Main, in the Empire of Germany, Manufacturer, do hereby declare
the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
This invention relates to the combination of a whip-stock with an air-pump
and spanner for cyclists.
The invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawing
which represents a longitudinal section of the combined whip-stock, pump, and
spanner.
A is the air-pump and B the piston, D is a collar notched at d for engagement
by the lugs c of a socket C forming a kind of bayonet joint, F is the spanner
firmly attached to the handle E so that a separate handle for the spanner is not
required as it can be easily detached at the point E which gives a suitable handle
for the spanner.
To the front end of the air-pump A is attached a coupling G
to which again is attached the flexible part H of the whip.
In order to make the whip flexible from the air-pump and permit at the same
time the connecting tube remaining attached to the air-pump, a spiral spring K
is placed within the part H of the whip which ensures sufficient space for the
air pipe within the whip-stock but bends easily with the whip.

Combined Whip, Air-pump, and Spanner for Cyclists.
I, GEORG MICHAEL WEIDENHAMMER, of 104, Eschersheimerland Strasse, Frank-
fort-on-the-Main, in the Empire of Germany, Manufacturer, 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 consists in the combination of a whip, an air-pump or pneumatic
tyre inflator, and a spanner for cyclists, and will be described with reference to
the drawing accompanying my Provisional Specification wherein I have represented
a longitudinal section partly in elevation, of the combined whip, pump, and
spanner.
A is the air-pump barrel and B its piston. F is the spanner provided with a
screw-socket which screws on to the head E of the piston rod for which the

page_text: spanner serves as a handle and from which it can be easily detached for use. D is
a collar on the pump barrel notched at d for engagement by the lugs c of a
socket C forming a kind of bayonet joint to lock the handle to the barrel when the
pump is not in use. To the front end of the air-pump A is attached by a screw-
coupling G the flexible tubular part H of the whip-stock within which is received
the connecting tube of the air-pump to which said tube remains attached, a spiral
spring K being placed within the part H of the whip-stock in order to ensure
space for the air-tube which passes through the spring, the tube and spring
bending easily with the whip.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of the said in-
vention and in what manner the same is to performed I declare that what I
claim is:-
1. A whip for cyclists, consisting in the combination of a whip-stock H an
air-pump A and a spanner F substantially as shewn and described.
2. The herein described construction of the combined whip, pump, and spanner,
wherein the spanner F is attached to the end E of the piston rod and a spiral
spring K is introduced into the flexible part of the whip-stock for the purpose
of protecting the air-tube of the pump substantially as specified.
