Abstract

1196. Bowden, E. M. Jan. 15. Brakes. - T h e Figures show the application of the invention to a b icycle. The brake consists of a curved piece H, preferably formed in two parts secured together by screws h and a plate h', and carrying on its lower ends h shoes J which engage the wheel rim when the piece H is lifted. Springs E secured to the back stays by clips k support the piece H and press the brake out of action. The brake is actuated by turning one of the handles, the power being conveyed to the brakes bv an incompressible tubular member E encased in rubber and an inextensible member F enclosed in it as described in Specification No. 25,325, A.D. 1896. The member E is secured to a bridge-piece adjustably clamped on the back stays, which consists, as shown separately in Fig. 5, of two pieces L secured by bolts l<1> to the stays and connected together by a socket N and a bolt M which engages slots in the pieces L and has a head m adapted to receive the member E. The member F is secured to the piece H. Figs. 6 and 9 show one form of operating-handle. The handle A is secured by a cap C and projections b to a sleeve B pivoted on the handle-bar and having formed in it slots b<1>, b' in which slide pieces D and D<1> mounted in a longitudinal slot x in the handle-bar, and secured respectively to the members E and F. On rotating the handle, the pieces D and D<1> are forced apart, thus actuating the brake. The position of the sleeve B on the handle-bar can be adjusted by means of a screw G screwing through the slot b<1> into a series of holes in the handle-bar. In a modification shown in Fig. 10, the sleeve B consists of a part B secured to the handle-bar and a pivoted part 1,B<l> which carries the handle, the parts B, B' being formed with inclined surfaces which engage as shown. The member E is connected to a disc b<4> fixed to the handle-bar, and the member F to a disc b<5> which is forced outwards by the rotation of the handle.
