page_text: I, CASPAR WILHELM BREMSHEY of the Firm of Bremshey & Co. of Wilholmstrasse
11 & 9 Ohligs, in the Empire of Germany, Manufacturer do hereby declare the
nature of this invention to be as follows:-
In the annexed drawing in Figs. 1 and 2 is shown the inner socket in elevation
and in section, whilst, Fig. 3 shows the bell in elevation. Fig. 4 shows the under
part of the innor socket in section on a larger scale.
The inner socket to be fixed on its upper end upon the umbrella stick has hitherto
been soldered along its opposite standing edges or been produced of drawn tubo and
on its upper and its under ends were formed collars or flanges. Whilst against the
upper collar there presses the spring placed in the bell round the socket, the under
collar lay against the indrawn wall of the bell, by which the movement of the bell
influenced by the spring against the socket and a fixing of the socket in the bell were
secured.
In the present invention there is used in the bell an interior socket b, over the
under border of which is slid and fixed a V shaped ring c.
In order to secure a good fixing of this ring c upon the socket, the under border of
the latter is flared outwardly or conically enlarged. If now the ring is slid over and
its free edges are pressed towards one another, that is to say against the wall of the
socket, a secure fastening of the ring upon the socket is effected in consequence of
the enlargement of the border of the latter. It is no longer necessary to solder the
edges of the socket, which touch one another, nor to make the socket of drawn tube,
as its breaking is completely prevented. Also this ring c, which forms the under enú
of the inner socket, limits the movement of the bell upon the socket effected by
means of the spring and keeps the socket fixed in the bell.

page_text: 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 a "tip-cup" for retaining the tips of umbrella frame ribs
when the frame is closed.
In the drawing left with my Provisional Specification in Figs. 1 and 2 is shown the
inner socket in elevation and in section whilst Fig. 3 shows the bell in elevation.
Fig. 4 shows the under part of the inner socket in section on a larger scale.
The inner socket to be fixed on its upper end upon the umbrella stick has hitherto
been soldered along its opposite standing edges or been produced of drawn tube and
on its upper and its under ends were formed collars or flanges whilst against the
upper collar there presses the spring placed in the tip cup or bell round the socket,
thie under collar lay against the in drawn wall of the tip cup or bell, by which the
movement of the latter influenced by the spring against the socket and a fixing of
the socket in the bell were secured.
In the present invention there is used in the tip cup an interior socket b over the
under border of which is slid and fixed a V shaped ring o.
In order to secure a good fixing of this ring c upon the socket, the under border of
the latter is flared outwardly or conically enlarged. If now the ring is slid over and
its freo edges are pressed towards one another that is to say against the wall of the
socket, a secure fastening of the ring upon the socket is effected in consequence of
the enlargement of the border of the latter. It is no longer necessary to solder the
edges of the socket, which touch one another, nor to make the socket of drawn tube,
as its breaking is completely prevented. Also this ring c which forms the under end
of the inner socket, limits the movement of the tip cup upon the socket effected by
means of the spring and keeps the socket fixed in the tip cup.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I
claim is :-
An umbrella fitting in which, upon the under conically enlarged border of the
inner socket is drawn a ring kept secured after the pressing against one another of
the borders by the conical enlargement, whereby soldering or upsetting of the socket
is avoided and simultaneously a limit is produced for the movement and for the
fastening of the tip cup.
