WILLIAM H. GASKILL, or
PHIEhDELPHIA, PENNSYLvANIA, ASSIGNOR TO SAMUEL W. EVANS, JR., OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.
FOLDING UMBRELLA AND CANE.
Specification oi.
Application filed J uly 14,
Ta all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM II. GASKILL, a citizen of the United States residing in the lphia, State of Forms lvania, have invented a new and useful F0 ding Umbrella and Cane, of which the following 1s a specification. It has heretofore been the ractice in confo dable canes or umbrella sticks, to provide a single link or knuckle which permits one member, as the handle member, to be turned downwardly at a articular angle so that it can lie longitudinally but by reason of this construction, the foldable members are prevented from being assembled closely against each other and there is furthermore,
' liability in the old construction, to which I 1 have referred, of
angle and when turned the link or knuckle being broken or snap ed at its joints unless the handle is turns down with reat care.
In order to obviate the oregoing disadvantages, I have devised. a novel construcfoldable cane or umbrella which can be disconnected and folded downw'ardl by the operator stany desired angle wit out damage or liability of breaking any of the links or knuckles employed and I furthermore" provide means whereby the members when assembled can lie longitudinally very close to each other, thereby enablin the cane umbrella or parasol to be readily fblded and transported under all conditions.
To the above ends my invention consists offa novel construction of a connection has tween'the handle and body of the cane orunibrella stick proper, whereby the'handie can bere'adi'ly turned downwardly at any downwardly, said handle orti'on can be" assembled longitudinall in close juxtaposition to the body of the stic or umbrella.
It further consists of other novel details of construction, all as will be hereinafter fully set forth.
Figure 1 represents an elevation of an umbrella and. its stick showing a novel joint or connection embodying my invention applied thereto; Fig.2 represents an elevanovel construction 2 Letters Patent.

normally assume la is ordinarily in umbrella stick or cane folded and turned against each other.
. Similar numerals of reference indicate correslponding parts in the figures.
. eferring to the drawings '.-In the drawings I have shown a construction which I have found to operate successfully in prac tice but it will be evident that 'the arrangement of the parts may be varied and other instrumentahties may be employed I which will come within the scope of my invention and I do not therefore desire to be limited in every instance to the exact construction as herein shown and described; but desire to make any changes which may come within the scope or spirit of my invention, which may be necessary.
nasmuch as employ substantially the same construction in. connection with a cane as an umbrella stick, the same detailed description will be applicable to both.
1 designates an umbrella or umbrella stick and 2, a cans to which my novel construction of joint is applicable and as the construction each case, I deem it necessary to only describe the same with devices as for exam is, the cane.
3 designates the E the cane which is formed hbllow or provided which'is provided with the threaded portion 4 and ad acent to its upper end is located the shoulder 5.
6 designates the upper portion or handle section of the cane w ich is provided with the threaded end 7 which may be integral or connected with said handle and which has the forked extremity 8.
9 desi nates a pin slidably mounter within the body portionv cane which is provided with a flan e 10 adapted to abut against the s ioulder 5 so as t preyent longitudinal removal of said in 9, the latter being provided with a forked ead 11. Pivotally connected with the in i 9 and located in the slot of the forked how is the tongue 12 rojoctin from the body l3 of l a link or knuc ls whic I has projecting from and rotatably 3 of the with a chamber of suitable distance and,
or head Fig. 4 represents a plan view of the joint showing the members or portions ofthe and arrangement of said joint is thesame m reference t6 one of the ody or lower portion of 25 rigid or integra its opposite side, a tongue 14 which is turned or located so as to pro ect at substantially a being pivotelly mounted in the fork 15 of the head of the next adjacent link, which is :llsu
provided with it tongue 16 which projects m substantially it right angle to the slot of the forked head 1.5, said tongue 16 being pivoted in 'the forked head 8 of the projection or extension 7, the latter lowing the shoulder or its equivalent 17 whereby the proper position of the parts is always assured.
The operation. is as l'oliows:When the umbrella or cane is normally in use, the parts appear substantially as seen in Fig. 3, the
be properly held or secured in position, the handle 6 havin the appearance of beings %part of the cane 3. When it is desired to fold the cancer umbrella it 'can be readily done by unscrewing the threaded member 7 from its engagement with the cane 3, whereupon the links or knuckles and their adjuncts can be with drawn so that the parts appear as seen in Figs. 1 and 2, the shoulder or flange 10 abutting againstthe shoulder 5, whereupon the handle'G, the threaded portion 7 and the knuckles or links pivoted thereto can be turned with respect to each other so that the parts appear as seen in Figs. 1 end 2 and by reason 0 the pivotal connection of the links or knuckles with each other, the two mem- 40 bers as the handle 6 and the body 3, can be folded or turned into close longitudinal jux taposition with each other as will be understood from Figs. 2 and 4 whereby thefolded umbrella or canewill occupy a minimum B see and there is furthermore, by reason of t e manner of constructing and pivoting the links or knuckles so that the same can be turned downwardly in whatever ositio'ri they may assume no liability of the inks or knuckles becoming broken or injured in any I am also aware that it has been proposed in the manufacture of flexible power transmission devices to employ a plurality of links or knuckles connected and inclosed b a.
sheath but my present invention is to be istinguished from these prior devices .since it does not consist In a mereduplica-tion of the links or knuckles but consists of a novel conerete unitary structure wherein the links or 'knuckles are so assembled and correleted I over of the cone or umhrclhi handle will in right angle to the tongue 12, said tongue 14 i no instance break or dmnoge any of the knuckles or their adjuncts and I furthermore, om enabled by my novel construction to produce St device wherein the folded overmcnihcrs can be brought into closer proximity to each other than heretofore, whereby the device occupies much less space than heretofore.
It will be evident that while I have in the case of the cane shown the handle or u per portion as being equipped with m nove device for enabling the same to be foiiled downwardly. I may locate the joint at about the middle of the cane body and I may tmnspose or reverse the manner of connecting the parts without departing from the spirit of myinvention. That is, I may construct the handle portion to receive the pint) and its ad j unets, the operation and function of the debe limited in every instance to the exact construction i have herein shown and described. 7
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:
1. In a. folding cone or umbrella, a. plurality of sections, means for enabling Stlltl seetions to be connected and disconnected from each other, a plurality of links connected to one of said sections, and disconnected from the other section and formed with forks and tongues which are suitably pivoted to each other, said forks and tongues being angularl y arranged with respect to each other, and means for prcventnig said links from being witl'rdrawn from the section in which they are loosel contained.
2. iii a folding cone or umbrellastick formed of sections, means for operatively connecting said sections, a forked head on one section,a pin movably mounted in the other section, a shoulder for reventing entire withdrawal of said pin, a link pivotally connected with said m, a link pivotally connected with said ead, and pivotal connec: tions between said links, one of said connections being composed of a body ortion having tongues extending at a rig t angle to each other.
' 3. A folding cane or umbrella stick, formed of two sections, one section having an internally threaded portion and a. shoulder below sand threaded ortion, the otherof said sections having a. t readed extremity, terminoting in a. fork and a. shoulder above said threaded portion a knuckle consisting of n j stop thereon, and connections lveiwo-en link having a tongue pivoted in said fork, a 1 pin and links. fork in said link turned at an angle to said WILLIAM H GASKILL tongue, a second link composed of a body 1 portion having tongues turned at an angle to Witnossed by:
