UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JAROSLAY MASEK AND LADISLAV CAPEK, OF CLEVELAND, OHIO.
SHADE FOR BICYCLES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 590,270, dated September 21, 1897. Application filed September 21, 1896. Serial No. 606,461. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that we, J AROSLAV MAsEK and LADISLAV CAPEK, citizens of the United States, residing at Cleveland, in the county of Ouyahoga and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Kites or Shades for Bicycles or Like Vehicles; and we do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the invention,which Will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
Our invention relates to kites or shades for bicycles and like vehicles; and the invention consists in the construction substantially as shown and described and particularly pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a side elevation of a part of a bicycle-frame and of our improved shade-frame in position thereon. Fig. 2 is an enlarged view of the socket and clamp which supports the shade on the frame. Fig. 3 is an under side or bottom view of the shade-frame as spread in use. Fig. 3% is a detail view of the end portion of the shade-frame. Fig. 4 is an enlarged elevation of the shade-frame, as hereinafter fully described. Fig. 5 is a top or plan view of the lower or base member of the shadeframe and its immediately-attached part-s, substantially as shown and described.
The object of the invention is obvious from the several views thereof as thus shown and described, and all the parts are designed to be so made as to afiord easy and speedy attachment and detachment of the shade and such adjustment thereof to the side or rear as the convenience or comfort of the rider may require.
A represents a portion of a bicycle-frame; 4
but it will be understood that the shade or kite herein described is not limited in its use to a bicycle, but is adaptable to other vehicles of like kind.
B is the main standard of the shade, which is supported in the combined socket and clip C, as more clearly shown in Fig. 2. This member 0 has a dual construction, being provided with a socket portion 2, adapted to be clamped firmly upon the standard B by means of a set-screw 3 or its equivalent, and on the opposite side is a clamping portion 4, which clined standard of the frame A, as shown .in' i Fig. 1. One wing of the clamp 4 (indicated by a) is rigid with the socket portion 2, While the opposite wing 17 is hinged at its rear, and a set-screw serves to unite these Wings and clamp them upon the standard of the frame substantially as does the set-screw 3. The said member 0 can be moved higher or lower upon its supporting-standard, as may be desired, and is fixed rigidly in any adjustment given it.
The standard B is preferably tubular, and is adapted to receive a supporting-rod D, adjustable up and down therein according to the elevation which the shade is to receive, and a set-screw or any sufficient means may be employed to hold the support D in any adjusted position. Auxiliary to this support is the inclined rod E, having a sleeve 5 at its lower end, which is clamped adjustably upon the standard B, and the said rod is hinged to said clamp so that it may be folded. The said clamp and the rod D may be adjusted together up and down, or separately, to give inclination to the shade, as may be desired and as seen in dotted lines, Fig. 1. At their upper ends the rods D and E are pivoted at the opposite ends of the horizontal bar or piece E. (Seen most clearly in Figs. L and 5.) An ordinary hinge serves to connect the rod E, but a hinge part 7 is fixed in the bifurcated extremity of the piece E and pivotally connected therewith and has an eye in which the upper end of the supporting-rod D is firmly engaged. This permits such movement as may be desired with the part E upon the pivot-bar 7, so that either end of the shade may be elevated or lowered, or both, as may be desired. The said piece or bar E is shown also as having a central longitudinal slot extending nearly its full length, and to this base-piece is adj ustably secured the central bar G of the shade-frame. This bar is supported on the base-piece E by means of a setscrew 8, and thereby is made adjustable back and forth in the slot of said piece. At the are hinged at their top to adapt them to swing down to a horizontal position, as shown in Fig. 4, and stop at that point and be folded back upon the piece G when notin use. Each extension 9 has a locking-bolt 10 at its bottom to engage it fixedly with the bar G, and at their outer ends the extensions 9 have hooks or projections 12, substantially as shown, over which the detachable outer spreading portionl-I of the shade-frame is engaged at both ends. This frame H consists of four several similar wires 77., bent to form an elliptical shape and linked or hinged together at their ends, as shown in the detail View at the left of Fig. 3. The extremities are engaged over the hooks 12, Fig. 8, and lateral spreading-braces k are connected with said wires near their middle and engaged at their opposite ends in loops m on the bottom of the bar G, whereby the said spreadingframe H is spread or distended and held rigid with the said bar. The cover constituting the shade proper is fixed upon this frame and may be of any preferred kind. To remove the frame H, all that is necessary is to release the braces-k and disengage its ends from the hooks 12, when the said frame may be folded.
Now in order that the frame G H, as above described, may be rotated and supported at right angles to its relation in Fig. 4, if preferred, it is only necessary to release the thumb-screw 8 and rotate the said frame thereon to a transverse or other position, as desired, and when this occurs we afford necessary lateral support by means of the rods 16, Fig. 5, which are adapted to slide in loops engaged in the edges of the base-piece E, and to project out beneath the center of the shadeframe G H and give it the necessary support.
The kite or shade can be set at any'inclination, either to the front or rear, or it can be rotated to one side or the other, and can also be so placed at any angle as to be used for a sail and so utilized to assist the propelling of the bicycle.
What we claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. A shade for bicycles and like vehicles comprising a central longitudinal bar and extension-pieces hinged thereon, and a detachable elliptical frame stretched upon said bar and extension-pieces and means to support said shade, substantially as described.
2. The shadestandard and the vertical rod telescoped therein and the inclined brace clamped adj ustably on said standard, in combination with the slotted supporting-piece engaged by said rod and diagonal brace, and the shade frame pivotally and adj ustably supported on said supporting-piece, substantially as described.
3. The shade frame described consisting of the part G and the hinged extensions 9 and means to make said parts rigid with each other, said extensions having hooks 12, in
