PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improved Holder for Velocipede Bells, Whips, and other like
Articles.
I, OTTO SCHILLING of Mehlis in Thuringia in the Empire of Germany,
Manufacturer, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
This invention has for its object a holder for velocipede hells, whips and other
like articles, which is characterised by its being capable of being attached to
articles of various thicknesses and of tubular, angular or circular cross section as
its loop is capable of being undone, it being fastened by means of a screw bolt.
On the accompanying drawing,
Figure 1 shows the invention applied to a tubular frame of considerable
thickness.
Figure 2 is the holder when opened.
Figure 3 a view of Figure 2 from above.
The holder consists of a frame b which extends into two arms e c¹ attached to bin
the form of a V. A V-shaped loop d is connected with the arms cc', which
together with the latter encloses a quadrangular space. The connection of the
arms c c with the loop d is formed on the one side by means of a screw e which is
connected by a joint with the loop d by a bolt f and which engages in a threaded
nut on the arm c, and also on the other side by means of a screw g which is
movably attached to the bolt h of the arm c' and extends through the slot i of the
loop d. The screw g is secured by means of the nut k. According as the screw e
is screwed more or less out of the arm c, a larger or smaller frame may be enclosed
by the space between the arms c c and the loop d. The slot in the loop d allows
the holder to be easily opened.
The holder is to be preferred to any other by reason of its extraordinary
simplicity and surety of action.

thickness.
Figure 2 is the holder when opened.
Figure 3 a view of Figure 2 from above.
The holder consists of a frame b which extends into two arms c
attached to b in

page_text: together with the latter encloses a quadrangular space. The connection of the
arms cc with the loop d is formed on the one side by means of a screw e, which is
connected by a joint with the loop d by means of a bolt f and which engages in a
threaded nut on the arm c, and also on the other side by means of a screw g which
is movably attached to the bolt of the arm c¹ and extends through the slot i of
the loop d. The screw 9 is secured by means of the nut k.
According as the screw e is screwed more or less out of the arm c, a larger or
smaller frame may be enclosed by the space between the arms cel and the loop d.
The slot in the loop d allows the holder to be easily opened.
This holder is to be preferred to any other by reason of its extraordinary
simplicity and surety of action.
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. A holder for fastening bells, whips and other like articles for bicycles and the
like, on framebars of various thicknesses, characterised by the clamp loop with its
hinge being adjustable by means of screws at a suitable distance from the main part
of the holder.
2. A holder of the kind described in Claim 1 in which both the main part as well
as the loop are V-shaped, and the clamping of the latter, which is attached to the
set screw by means of a hinge, is brought about by means of a clamp screw attached
either to itself or to the main part.
