BICYCLE-SADDLE.
, SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 653,588, dated July 10, 1900.
Application filed October 14, 1899.l Serial No. 733,576. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, HATTIE M. NORMAN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Sandusky, in the county of Erie and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bicycle-Saddles; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and eX- act description of the invention, such as will enable others skilledin the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to improvements in bicycle-saddles, and has reference to that class of saddles known as two pad or health saddles.
The invention consists, essentially, of a pair of air-cushions and suitable plates and containing mechanism for holding them in position between the base-plate of the saddle and the topping or seat leather. Y
The invention further consists in the novel construction and arrangement of the several parts of the device hereinafter described, illustrated in the drawings, and more particularly pointed out in the claim hereunto appended.
In the drawings, Figure l is a top view of my saddle, having a portion of one of the pads broken away to show the construction. Fig. 2 is aperspective of one of the pads. Fig. 3 is a cross-section ofthe saddle, taken through both pads and'showing a leather washer between the base and the spring.
Fig. 4 is a perspective v'iew of the brace C, and Fig. 5 is a detail showing the washer lo-L cated betweenthe base-plate and the spring.
openings b for a purpose hereinafter stated.l
This plate or holder B is also provided with a suitable circular opening B2, adapted to register with the opening A2 in the seat in the base-plate.
O is an auxiliary plate adapted to reinforce or strengthen the plate or holder B, and extends across the said holder to the rear of the openings B2 and is interposed between said holder and the air-cushion D. The plate C is also provided with flanges having openings therein that register with the openings Z2 in the iianges Bl of the holder B.
D is a suitable air bag or cushion of th same shape as the holder B and the seat in the base-plate. This cushion rests on the holder B and within the topping or covering of canvas and leatherE and F and is of such size as to permit the holder and topping (which constitute a pad of the saddle) to it snugly in the seat in the base-plate. The cushion D is provided with avalve of the ordinary construction, which when the cushion is in the pad and in position in the seat eX- tends down through the openings B2 and A2 and projects beneath the saddle-plate. E is a tough piece of canvas or other suitable material used as a protection against the action lof the leather (which tends to burn, rot, and destroy the rubber air bag or cushion) upon the cushion D.
F is a piece of suitable leather, such as is usually used for saddle pad-covers.
My improved saddle is constructed as follows: The plate or holder B and the openings therein are stamped from a suitable piece of sheet metal and the flangestB suitably perforated and turned up. The auxiliary plate is then struck off in the same `manner and the leather and canvas cut to a desired shape.
YTheplates B and C arethen placed together,
ICQ
able Wires Or catches 7L 7i in the seat A' Of the plate A.
To the under side of the saddle between the spring and the base-plate I place a leather' cushion or buffer a Or any Othersuitable material for the purpose of preventing the grinding Of the spring against the base-plate and preventing the consequent disagreeable grinding and creaking noise.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim is- In a bicycle-saddle of the character described, the combination of a base-plate provided with a depressed seat having a small Opening therein, with a pad consisting of a plate Or holder of the shape Of the seat Or depression and provided with an opening adapted to register with the Opening in the plate, and having its edges turned to forni -downwardly-projecting iianges, said flanges HAT'rIE M. NORMAN.
