BICYCLE H laitfDOix'lf/hl, NEW YORK.
DLE OR GRIP.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 586,830, dated July 20, 1897.
Application filed August 1,1896. Serial No. 601,300. No model.)
lie it known that I, Gnonon W. W ILLIAMS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Brooklyn, in the county of Kings, State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Bicycle Handles or Grips, which improvement is fully set forth in the following specification and accompanying drawings. i
My invention consists of a grip or handle for a bicycle, having a body formed of paper or other bibulous material, with a reinforce, producing a cheap, light, pliable, soft, and sufficiently strong device for the purpose intended.
It also consists of details of construction, as will be hereinafter described.
Figure 1 represents a side elevation of abicycle grip or handle embodying myinvention, the end caps having been separated. Fig. 2 represents a longitudinal section thereof. Fig. 3 represents a perspective viewof one of the annuli of the grip or handle. resents a side elevation of another form of the invention.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the several figures. Refierring to the drawings, A designates a series of annuli or disks, placed side by side, forming the body of the grip, and B ilesig nates tips on the ends thereof. 0 designates caps which cover said tips, when so desired, the same being formed of suitable metal or other material.
The tips B may be formed of cork, wood, or other suitable material or of metal and are made hollow, so as to be in communication with the central openings of the annuli and receive the handle-bar.
In the annuli A in the longitudinal direction of the body of the grip are openings D, through which are passed the wires E, the latter being also passed through openings F in the tips 13 and having portions of the same seated in the peripheral grooves Gin the tips and the ends twisted together, clenched, or otherwise secured, it being noticed that the wires sustain the annuli and tips, and as they are drawn taut they compress the disks and hold them firmly connected with each other and with the tips.
In lieu of--the wires E, I may use cords withoutproducing different results from those Fig. 4 repstated.
tips different from that in the other figures,
but the result is the same.
The body may be readily cleansed by the use of sandpaper, emery, or other suitable material.
The fastenings of the wires or cords'are concealed by the caps C, which latter also serve to strengthen the outer ends of said tips, which they embrace, it being. also noticed that the fastening wires or cords are con cealed, and they form no projections on the exterior of the body of the grip or handle.
When the annuli are compressed, the lines of demarcation between the same virtually disappear and the bodypresents a solid appearance, as seen in Fig. 1, but the body may be formed ,of bibulous material, primarily in pulpcondition, the same being molded into the shape of the body and having wire or cord therein as reinforces, the general appearance of the body being the same as in said Fig. 1. As the fastenings of the ends of the wires are on the periphery of the tips, they are accessible when the caps are removed in order to furthertighten said wires or cords, after which the caps are restored to position, thus again covering the said fastenings and tips and concealing the same.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
A grip or handle consisting of a series of annuli placed side by side, tips on the outer ends of said series, cords or wires passing through said annuli and tips and over the peripheries of said tips, and having their fastening ends on either of said tips, and caps covering said tips and fastening ends.
