Description

G. W. TUCKER.
Umbrella-Tip Retainers.
Patented Nov. 3,1874;
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
GEORGE W. TUCKER, OF WATERBURY, CONNECTICUT, ASSIGNOR TO THE AMERICAN RING COMPANY, OF SAME PLACE.
. IMPROVEMENT IN UMBRELLA-TIP RETAINERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 156,5] 0, dated November 3, 1874 application filed August 27, 1874.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE W. TUCKER,
of Waterbury, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, have invented an Improvement in Tip-Cups for Umbrellas, of which the following is a specification:
Tip-cups have been applied upon the handles of umbrellas and parasols to retain the ends of the ribs when the umbrella is closed, and
' a spring has been applied to move that tipcup, and press it upon the ends of the ribs.
My invention relates to a peculiar construction of spring tip-cup that is attached to the In the drawing, Figure 1 is a section of the tip-cup complete. Fig. 2 is a sectional view, detached, of the tip-cupaud its cylinder, and Fig. 3 is a plan of the tip-cup. The cylinder ais of a size to fit the handle b. Said cylinder has a rim or flange, c, at one end forming an abutment for the spring 01, and around this cylinder at is the tip-cup e that slides freely upon the cylinder a, but is retained by the bead or'flange d.
By this construction the wire-spring t acts to press the tip cup towards the tips, and retain them in place after they have been held together, and the tip-cup slipped over them. In order to cover up the spring 1', and furnish a convenient means for drawing back the tipcup against the action of the spring, I employ the cylinder h having an inward flange, 2, at one end, and tongues 3 at the other, and these tongues, entering-mortises in the tipcup, as seen in Fig. 3, and being turned up, serve to connect the cylinder and the tip-cup, so that the latter can be drawn back by grasping the former.
I claim as my invention The cylinder h, inclosing the spring t, and connected to the tip-cup e by tongues passing through mortises, in combination with the cylinder at and flanges c and d at the respective ends, forming. stops for the spring and cup, all as described and set forth.
Signed by me this 19th day of August, 187 4.
GEO. W. TUCKER. Witnesses:
HENRY M. STOCKING, L. J. ATWooD.
