Improvements in Pneumatic Tyres for Cycles and other Vehicles.
I, STEFAN ANYZEWSKI, of 12 South Street, Manchester Square, in the County
of London, Hair Dresser, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as
follows:-
My invention relates to improvements in pneumatic tyres for cycles and other
vehicles, which consists of a pneumatic tube fitted to a rim of a wheel, and a cover
of webbing with a considerable number of metallic discs sewed thereto, and an
india rubber cover is fixed to the flanges or any other part of a rim in any well
known manner.
The object of the webbing with the metal discs sewed thereto is to protect the
pneumatic tyre against injury from puncturing or cutting.
Each of the metal discs is pierced with two holes for the purpose of being united
to the webbing by stitches, the aforesaid discs slightly laying on each other. The
metal disc webbing is fitted to the periphery of the pneumatic tyre prior to the
india rubber cover being fixed to the rim of a wheel.
I guard the tyre against punctures or cutting by inserting between the air tube
and the india rubber cover, a coat of (mail) steel discs overlapping each other and
sewed to a band of webbing or any other suitable material.
Dated this 20th day of December 1895.

COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Pneumatic Tyres for Cycles and other Vehicles.
I, STEFAN ANYZEWSKI, of 12 South Street, Manchester Square, in the County
of London, Hair Dresser, 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 relates to improvements in pneumatic tyres for cycles and other
vehicles, which consists of a pneumatic tube fitted to a rim of a wheel, and a cover
of webbing with a considerable number of metallic discs sewed thereto, and an
india rubber cover is fixed to the flanges or any other part of a rim in any well
known manner.
The object of the webbing with the metal discs sewed thereto is to protect the
pneumatic tyre against injury from puncturing or cutting.
And in order that my invention may be thoroughly understood, I now proceed
to describe the accompanying drawing thereof, reference being had to letters and
figures marked thereon.
Fig. 1, is a plan of the discs sewed to the canvas attached to the india rubber
cover; Fig. 2, is a plan of the webbing with the discs sewed thereto. These figs.
are broken off for want of space.
Fig. 3, is a section of the india rubber cover and canvas, with metal discs.
Fig:-4, is an enlarged plan of a metal disc.

page_text: Each of the metal discs a is pierced with two holes 6 for the purpose of being
united to the webbing or canvas e by stitches d, the aforesaid discs slightly laying
on each other. The metal discs a are sewed to the webbing or canvas c and
overlap each other as shewn in Figs. 1, and 2, so as to cover the whole of the
endless cover o, these said discs are intended to protect the periphery of the air
tube. The metal disc webbing or canvas is fitted to the periphery of the pneumatic
tyre prior to the india rubber cover e being fixed to the rim of a wheel or the
metal discs a and canvas c may be fixed to the outside cover e as in Fig. 1.
If preferable a protection strip for packing may be placed between the air tube
and the canvas with discs, to prevent injury by chafing of the air tube.
I guard the tyre against punctures or cutting by inserting between the air tube
and the india rubber cover, a coat of (mail) steel discs overlapping each other and
sewed to a band of webbing or any other suitable material.
Any pattern india rubber cover or air tube may be used in carrying my invention
into practice.
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. In pneumatic tyres for wheels, the combination of metal discs a sewed ou
canvas and the canvas c with the india rubber cover e and protection strip f
substantially as herein described and according to Figs. 1, and 3, of the
accompanying drawing.
2. In pneumatic tyres for wheels, the combination of metal discs a sewed on
webbing c by stitches d and the said webbing c fixed to an india rubber cover e,
and the webbing c and india rubber cover e with a protection strip or packing,
substantially as herein described and according to Fig. 2, of the accompanying
drawing.
3. In pneumatic tyres for wheels, the combination of metal discs overlapping
each other and sewed to an endless band or cover to protect the pneumatic tube
from punctures and the like, substantially as herein described and according to the
accompanying drawing.
Dated this 15th day of January 1896.
