DEVICE FOR SECURING CAPS OR HEADS T0 TUBULAR ARTICLES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 552,159, dated December 31, 1895.

tube at one side, while the free end or toe as, which is sharpened, engages with the opposite side of the tube, as shown in the drawings. The securing-stem F may conveniently be To all whom it may concern;
Be it known that LJosEPH A. WEAVER, Jr. a citizen of the United States, and a resident of New York city, New York county, New York, have invented an Improved Device for Securing Caps or Heads to Tubular Articles,
fication, Fig. 5. In this latter case the body body of the stem F is of wire, and to the outer end of it is fixedly secured an angular foot-piece f of steel, affording a heel y to bear against the interior of the tube on one side, while a sharp toe 00 engages with the tube on the other side. The outer end of the stem may be detachably connected to the cap 0, as by passing the stem through a central hole in the cap and providing a head or shoulder f to engage with t e latter, as illustrated in Figs. 1, 2, and 3, or the stem may be fixedly secured, as by soldering, to the cap, as shown in the modifications, Figs. 4 and 5.
In the modification, Fig. 4, I have showna construction in which the securing-stem has been duplicated at F F for greater security or holding power. The body of the stem F should, in any case, have some elasticity or spring in it.
The manner of applying this fastening device is as simple as its construction, and will be clearly understood by reference to the drawings, particularly Figs. 1, 2, and 3. The stem with its acute-angled foot-piece having stance, as the caps on the handle ends of the handlebars of cycles.
. In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view illustrating my invention as applied to the securing of a cap on the handle end of a cycle handle-bar. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section illustrating the mode of applying. the cap and fastener. Fig. 3 is a similar View showing the cap and astener in place. Figs. 4 and 5 are views of modifications.
Although I have illustrated and will hereinafter describe my invention as more particularly applied to the securing of cycle handle caps, it should be understood at the outset that it may be applied to various other uses.
Referring to the drawings, A is the metal tube of the handle-bar. Bis the handle of cork or other suitable material to be secured on the end of the handle-bar, and O is a suitable passed through a central hole in the cap into a wooden plug driven into the end of the tubular handle-bar. In practice, however, these wooden plugs become loose from shrinkage and drop out or the screws work loose, so that the caps and handles are not securely fastened by such means.
I provide a securing-stein F to engage with direction of the arrow 2, Fig. 2, to a central position, as shown in Fig. 3, thus causing the sharpened toe a; of the foot-piece to dig to a slight but sufficient extent into the metal foot-piece f at an acute angle to the body of the stem F and of such a size in relation to the diameter of the tube that the heel y of the I claim as my invention- 1. A device for securing caps or heads to tubular articles, consisting of an elastic stem tubular articles, consisting of a spring stein having in one piece with or fixedly secured having in one therewith or fixedly secured to itafoot piece at an acute-angle to the stern, thereto at one end a head and at the other a the heel of the foot piece being adapted to foot piece at an acute angle to the stem, the 20 5 bear against the interior of the tube on one heel of the foot piece being adapted to bear side while the toe engages the opposite side, against the interior of the tube on one side, substantially as described. while the toe engages the opposite side, sub- 2.
