LUGGAGE CARRIER FOR BIGYOLES. No. 595,843. Patented Dec. 21,1897.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
GEORGE ELDER ADAMS, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
LUGGAGE-CARRIER FOR BICYCLES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 595,843, dated December 21, 1897. Application filed October 20, 1896. Serial No- 609,392. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE ELDER ADAMS, a citizen of the United States, residing at the city of New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented an Improvement in Luggage-Carriers for Bicycles, of which the following is a specification.
My improved luggage-carrier is specially adapted for the coat of the bicycle-rider, but may be used for other things for convenient carriage upon the seat-post and rear forks of a bicycle.
It consists of a leather holder formed of a sack-back with attached straps, whereby it is suspended from the seat-post upon the rear forks and contains the coat or other article strapped to and Within the sack-back and upon the forks.
In the annexed drawings, Figure 1 shows a portion of a bicycle-frame, its rear forks and seat-post, and the luggage-carrier strapped to the seat-post and upon the forks. Fig. 2 shows the device, looking at it from the inner side of the forks.
A sack-back piece 1, preferably of leather, is long enough and wide enough to lie upon the upper portion of the rear forks 2 2 and forms a bottom sack part 3, curving out and up from the forks with a greater width than its upper part. Buckles 4 4 are secured to the upturned sack part on its outer side, while the upper end of the sack-back has holes 5 5, through which a strap 6 is passed, so as to form a loop 7 around the seat-post 8 at the top of the frame 9. The ends of this strap pass over the sack-back and are fastened to the buckles over the article of luggage, so that this strap While securing the luggage within the carrier suspends the latter upon the rear forks and upon the seat-post and formsa shield for the coat.
A cross-strap 10 engages a loop 11, cut in the sack-back about the middle of its length, and passes between and around the forks and buckles over and across the suspending-strap, whereby the luggage is secured from endwise displacement and the carrier is bound upon the forks.
While the carrier is adapted for suspension from the seat-post, it may be secured to and suspended upon the forks; but the construction shown is convenient and secure.
It is obvious that my luggage-carrier may be suspended from the front or head of the bicycle, in which case the holes 12 in the sackback are to allow the cross-strap'to form a loop at the under side of the saclcback for engagement with the steering-post or front part.
I claim- 1. The luggagecarrier herein described consisting of the sack-back widest at its lower end to form a pocket, its upper end having holes, and a loop in the middle of its length, and having buckles at its widest end near each corner, the strap passing through the upper holes forming the suspending-loop and for engaging the buckles and the loop-forming cross buckle-strap for engaging the middle sack-loop, the seat-post and buckling over the suspendin g-strap, the wide end of the sackback forming a pocket with the suspendingstrap as shown. I
2. In a luggage-carrier the combination, with a sack-back having holes or slits at its upper end and others in the middle of its length, of a strap passing through the upper holes to form a suspending-loop for engaging preferably the seat-post, the free ends passing down over the contained bundle and engaging the buckles on the lower end of the sack-back drawing the lower end of the latter up, thereby forming a pocket for the bundle, a strap having a buckle on one end, passing through the middle holes, each end engaging a tang of the rear forks of the bicycle-frame and buckling around the contained bundle to hold it from lateral displacement.
