B. s. SEAMAN. I BICYCLE SADDLE.
No. 557,238. Patented Mar, 31,1896.
UNITED STATES BENJAMIN S. SEAMAN,
OF CANTON, OHIO, ASSIGNOR TO THE GILLIAM MANUFACTURING COMPANY, OF SAME PLACE.
BICYCLE-SADDLE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 557,238, dated March 31, 1896. Application filed August 19, 1895. Serial No. 559,707. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, BENJAMIN S. SEAMAN, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Canton, county of Stark, State of Ohio, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Bicycle-Saddles, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making part of this specification.
My invention relates to certain improvements in bicycle-saddles; and it consists of certain features of construction and combination of parts, as will be hereinafter described and claimed.
Figure 1 of the drawings is a View in perspective of the invention, showing the cantleframe and support. Fig. 2 is a similar view of the pommel-frame. Fig. 3 is a similar view of the screw by which the seat-leather is adjusted. Fig. 4 is a similar view of the nut for the adj usting-screw. Fig. 5 is a similar view of the rear portion of the tubular support. Fig. 6 is a longitudinal section through the tubular support and cross-section through the center of the cantle. Fig. 7 is a perspective of a fragment of the tubular support and cantle, showing the point of connection between the two.
A denotes the cantle-frame, which is made of sheet metal, stamped into the form substantially as shown in Fig. 1, having a flangeddown circular portion B. The central forwardly-projected portion is stamped down to form a recess G to receive the tapered rear end portion D of the tubular support E.
For the purpose of stifiening the cantleframe A a recess or depression F is formed in the upper face thereof, in which is placed and secured by rivets the top plate G, which also serves to form a tapering socket between the cantle A and the plate G to receive the rear end of the tubular support E, which is secured therein by rivets, as shown.
At the front end of the tube E are provided recesses a, adapted to receive the projecting lugs 12 on the under side of the threaded nut J, by which the nut is secured to the tube and against rotation. The screw K is passed into the tube and the lug b into the recesses a. The pommel-frame L is of the form shown, or substantially so, having sides 0, by which it is secured to the seat-leather, an end piece (1, in which is provided an aperture f to receive the spindle portion e of the screw K, and a forwardly and downwardly projected portion h, by which the frame is secured to the pommel.
With screw K in the tube, as before stated, the forward end of the tube-support E is passed between the sides 0, the spindle e of the screw resting in the aperture f. To adjust the frame to the seat-leather, the screw may be turned out of or into the tube E, as the case maybe.
I have purposely omitted showing the seatleather, so as to more fully show the frame.
Having thus fully described the nature and object of my invention, what I claim is- The combination in a bicycle-saddle seat, of the support E, a sheet-metal cantle, having its rear portion circular and flanged downwardly to conform to the seat-leather, and in its top face a recess F, plate G secured therein, whereby the cantle-frame is strengthened, and a socket formed to receive the end of the support E, a pommel-frame and a means for adjusting said frame on the support E, substantially as set forth.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand this 14th day of August A. D. 1895.
BENJAMIN S. SEAMAN.
