PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
An Improved Cycle Spanner.
GEORGE WILLIAM MCINTYRE of 113 Brooke Road, Stoke Newington, London
a Clerk and CHARLES BRINKMAN MINTYRE of 50 Bonchurch Road Brighton
also a Clerk do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
The object of this invention is to embody the advantages of cycle spanners now
in use and to obviate the necessity of carrying more than one spanner.
I
To accomplish this we take a disc, in the periphery of which we cut polyginal-
half-eyes of different sizes to admit the nut or bolt to be screwed. We then drill
a small hole at the base of each individual half-eye and another in the centre of
the disc. We then make the handle or lever which is forked at one end to admit
the disc, the latter revolving there on an axle passed through the ends of the forks.
A hole is also made through the forks corresponding with those in the disc to
receive a bolt, which, when in position, holds the disc stationary.

We, GEORGE WILLIAM MCINTYRE 113 Brooke Road Stoke Newington London
and CHARLES BRINKMAN MCINTYRE 50 Bonchurch Road Brighton Clerks, 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 object of this invention is to embody the advantages of cycle spanners now
in use and obviate the necessity of carrying more than one spanner.
To accomplish this we take a disc, in the periphery of which we cut polygonal
half eyes of different sizes to admit the nut or bolt to be screwed. We then drill a
small hole at the base of each individual half eye and another in the centre of the
disc. We then make the handle or lever which is forked at one end to admit the
disc the latter revolving there on an axle passed through the ends of the forks.
A hole is also made through the forks corresponding with those in the disc to
receive a bolt, which when in position holds the disc stationary.
In order that our invention may be fully understood, I now refer to the annexed
drawings in which :-
Figure 1, is a side elevation of our invention.

Figure 3, view of locking pin.

The head of this pin is

preventing the pin f from being lost or mislaid.
g is the end of the handle or lever which is shaped as shown and may be used as
a screw driver; in Figure 4 a modified form of this end g' is shown.
It will be seen that the disc a may be locked by the pin fin any of the positions
necessary owing to the pin passing through one or other of the holes c.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed we declare that what we
claim is :-
A cycle spanner having a rotating disc in the periphery of which openings are
cut of various and required sizes for engaging on nuts or bolts or the like, said
disc being locked in the desired position by a pin which engages in holes or
apertures in said disc; the lever or handle which carries said disc having a
screw driver end all in combination and substantially as described and illustrated
herein.
