A. M.. ALL-EN', OF
NNE wlmnu Letles Patent No. 94,058, dated August 24, 1869.
- MECHANICAL VELOCIPIDE.
To all whom 'it md/y concern.-
Be it known that I, A.M. ALLEN, ofthe city, county,
and State'of New `York, have invented a new andim-l proved Mechanical Velocipede; and I do hereby delare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description thereof; which will enable those skilled in the art to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, forming part of Athis specification, in which drawing- `Figure l represents a sectional side elevation ofthis invention. l
Figure 2 is a plan or top viewjthereof. j
Similar letters indicate corresponding parts.
This invention relates to a velocipede, which is provided with a spring, or other` motive-power, and the reach of which is made in'two parts, connected by a swivel and nut, in such-a manner that by bringing the two parts of the reach in'an angular position toward each other, the velocipede is caused to run on a curve, orina circle, and, by bringing the two parts of the reach ina straight line, the velocipede is caused to nun in a4 straight line, and, by these means, a velocipede is obtained, which, when set for a circle, can be used in a room, being propelled by its own motivepower, and which can also be set for and usedxon a straight course.
The front part of the reach forms a saddle, which supports the image of a human gure, the legs of which are connected to cranks secured'to the axle of the front wheel, so that as the velocipede is propelled, the image imitates the motions of a person riding on a velocipede. i,
A represents the reach of my velocipede, which is made in two parts, d b, that are connected by a pvot, c, and'nut, d, so that they can be adjusted in a rectilinear or in auf angular position toward each other.
To facilitate this adjustment, I propose to use under said nut a spring-washer, which will retain the'vreach in any position into which it may, be brought, sniiciently tight to prevent it from moving spontaneously.
The rear end of the reachconnects to ,the axle of thehind wheels B, on which is mounted a pinion, e, and to this pinion a revolving motion is imparted by a'train of gear-wheels, and a spring, f, or by any other desirable motive-power which can be conveniently applied. I j
The front end of the reach rests upon the axle of the front wheel C, which represents the steering and driving-wheel, and to the ends of said axle are secured the cranks y, the wrist-pins of which are attached to the feet of an image, D, which may represent the figure of a man.
The legs of this figure are jointed at the knees and hips, so that they can follow the motions ofthe cranks g.
It' the spring f is wound up, and the two parts of the reach are adj usted in an angular position toward each other, the velocipede will run, ou a circular course, and it can be started in an ordinary room.
The motion of theilnage D will give vto children or new beginners in the art of driving a velocipede, an idea of what is required to operate a velocipede by foot-power. v
If my velocipede is made large enough', a child can take the place of the image D, and it will receive a. free ride, the velocipede being propelled entirely by the spring f, orothermotive-power acting on itshind wheels. s I do not claim a toy-velocipcde, nor the motivepower thereto.
lVhat I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
In a toy-velocipede, operated as described, the twopart reach c b, pivot c, nut d, and spring-Washer,co1n bined and adapted for the purpose described.
\Vitixesses: A. M. ALLEN.
