CHESTER L. TRIPP, OF NEW BEDFORD, MASSACHUSETTS.
TROUSERS-GUARD.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 660,670, dated October 30, 1900.
Application filed April 28,1900.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHESTER L. TRIPP, a citi zen of the United States, residing at New Bedford, in the county of Bristol and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Trousers-Guards, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to that class of devices used by bicyclists to hold the bottoms of their trousers from contact with the operating parts of the bicycle; and it consists of a spring-clasp adapted to embrace the ankle, a metallic loop provided with a sliding thimble, adapted to closely embrace said clasp, adjustable thereon and projecting at a right angle to the plane of said clasp, and a spring-wire secured to said loop and projecting upward, outward, and downward relative to the plane of said clasp.
The accompanying drawings illustrate my invention, in which- Figure 1 is a view in perspective of'my invention. Fig. 2 is a view of the metallic loop, sliding thimble, and spring-wire as they appear when adjusted on the ankle.
Similar letters refer to similar parts in both views.
The letter a represents a spring-clasp similar to the ordinary one used by bicyclists.
' 1) represents a loop of metal adapted to closely embrace the thickness of the clasp a and provided with the sliding thimble 0, adapted to cause the loop I) to firmly retain its position on the clasp when adjusted thereon.
Serial No. 14,778. (No model.)
01 is a spring-wire secured to the ends of the loop 6 and projecting upward, outward, and downward with relation to the plane of the clasp a. The wire d is preferably provided with a coil in its upper portion in order that it may be more easily adjusted to the different sizes of trousers.
In Fig. 2 the device is shown as it appears when adjusted on the ankle, the dotted line 6 representing the trousers, which hang easily and naturally over the device, but are still prevented thereby from coming in contact with the working parts of the bicycle.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim,and desire to secure by Letters Patcut, is
1. A trousers-guard, consisting of a springclasp to embrace the ankle; a metallic loop provided with a sliding thimble, adapted to closely embrace said clasp, adjustable there on, and projecting at a right angle to the plane of said clasp; and a spring-wire secured to said loop and projecting upward, outward and downward, relative to the plane of said clasp, substantially as shown and described.
2. A trousers-guard, consisting of a springclasp, to embrace the ankle; a spring-wire secured to said clasp, and projecting upward, outward and downward, relative to the plane of said clasp, substantially as described.
