GEORGE JAMES NORRIS, HUBERT GEORGE NORRIS, PERCY OTHNIEL NORRIS, all
of 127, Stoke Road, Gosport, Hants, Cycle Repairers, do hereby declare the nature
of this invention to be as follows:
-
A solid or hollow pin constructed of steel or other material with the usual bevel
to allow its attachment to a cycle frame such pin having a round solid head with
a round or oval slot in the crown of the head. Surrounding the head but not
affixed thereto is a cup made in two parts with a flange to screw together the cup
over the head. On the top of the top half of the cup is a bolt upon which the
saddle is affixed with a nut. The cup working over the head of the pin allows
the saddle a sidal forward and backward movement.
On the under part of the top half of the cup opposite the bolt is a stud or boss
attached to and forming part of the cup and working in the slot on the crown
of the pin and thus limiting the extent of the movements of the saddle according
to requirement. There is a space between the bottom half of the cup and the
pin in order to allow such movement of the cup on the head as is required.
A. . . . A bolt is attached to the head of the pin and works through a slot in
the cup in order to prevent the saddle from turning round more than is required.
We claim for this invention that it will prevent seat friction and fag to
cyclists.

We adopt the drawing left with the Provisional Specification.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said inven-

claim is:
1. The application of a round head to seat pillars or pins for cycles.
2. The application of a cup in the construction of seat pillars or pins for cycles.
3. The combination of a round head to seat pillars or pins for cycles with a
cup working round the same.
