    摘要: A vehicle wheel trim member has a round spring steel ring mounted on the inboard face thereof adapted to engage in grooves in the wheel mounting lug nuts or the studs on which they are threaded to releasably retain the trim member on the wheel. The ring is dimensioned to be flexed radially into non-circular shape and thereby assume a stressed condition when engaged in the grooves. The ring is mounted on the trim member such that the retention forces generated by the flexed ring are absorbed entirely by the studs and not by the trim member. Distortion and warpage of the trim member is thus avoided.

    摘要: A wheel cover formed of plastic or metal having a wire ring supported on the inboard face thereof. The ring is formed with a plurality of circumferentially spaced, radially outwardly extending, U-shaped projections designed to frictionally engage an annular surface on the wheel rim to retain the cover thereon. The radially outermost portion of the bight section of each projection is formed with a sharp biting edge face inclined both to the plane of the wheel cover and to the axis of the wheel cover so as to provide substantial resistance of the cover to rotation and axial outward displacement relative to the wheel.

    摘要: A bicycle having front and rear wheel caliper brakes, a pedal crank assembly having a shaft extending through a hub and projecting at its ends therebeyond for connection to pedal cranks. The shaft may be integral with the pedal cranks or may be discretely formed and threadedly secured at its ends to the pedal cranks. The bicycle also contains a brake control assembly having a cam mounted on the shaft outwardly of the hub for rotation with the shaft, the cam having at least one working edge surface, a plate carried on the shaft in substantially planar parallel relationship to the cam. The plate pivotally mounts a cam follower, in the nature of a pawl, for engaging said cam working edge upon back pedalling operation. A substantially vertically extending rod is loosely engaged at its lower end to the plate and fixedly engaged in its upper end portion to brake control cables leading from the caliper brakes. The rod is journalled for axial rotation and resilient means urges the same into spaced relationship with respect to the cam follower with which the rod is engageable upon rotation for releasing the cam follower from engagement with the cam.

    摘要: A bicycle having front and rear wheel caliper brake assemblies which are connected to a swingably mounted lever which in one form of the invention is operatively engaged to the pedal shaft through friction-producing elements as well as to cables controlling the brake assemblies so that upon back pedaling action the brakes will be automatically applied; but with there being a linkage connection between said lever and a pawl engageable with a driven sprocket on the rear axle to promote slackness in the transmission chain upon brake application. In another form of the invention, the particular lever member is operatively engageable with the pedal shaft by bearing elements carried thereon and to a front pawl lockable with a drive sprocket; and there being an elongated finger-like element fixed to the lever and engageable with the transmission chain for assuring of slackness therein upon release of the said front pawl. In a further form of the invention, the particular lever member is operatively connected to a pawl lockable with a driven sprocket by a cable from the front pawl, and with a spring element engaging the cable for causing slackness to develop in the transmission cable. The bicycle also incorporates a handle bar readily shiftable between touring and racing positions, as in ten-speed bicycles, and having shift controls in the ends thereof for actuation in like manner regardless of the position in which the handle bar may be disposed.

    摘要: Compact, collapsible ironing apparatus is disclosed having a base providing supportive disposition upon a supporting surface for carrying an ironing board and for supporting a hand iron above the ironing surface of the ironing board. A first upright member extends upwardly from the base and is pivotally secured at its upper end to the ironing board for swingable movement upon a pivot axis between storage and use positions. A second upright member extends upwardly from the base and an iron support linkage is swingably interconnected at one end to the upper end of this second upright member. The linkage comprises articulated arms which are extendable to positions over the ironing surface. An iron securement unit pivotally interconnects the distal end of the support linkage with the iron for permitting movement of the iron between first and second orientations respectively in and out of contact with the ironing surface. The base includes folding leg members movable between storage and use positions conjointly with swinging movement of the ironing board between its respective storage and use positions.

    摘要: A machine for bending wire into a ring having a plurality of circumferentially spaced and radially outwardly projecting loops. A loop is formed by the cooperation of a pair of first mandrels longitudinally spaced apart on one side of a wire segment and a second mandrel normally positioned on the other side of the wire segment and moved generally transversely across the longitude of the wire segment along a path between the first mandrels while essentially simultaneously the first mandrels are moved generally longitudinally toward each other. Pairs of third and fourth mandrels disposed on opposite sides of the wire form bends in the wire to provide a plurality of rectilinear portions interconnecting adjacent loops to form a ring-like configuration.

    摘要: A vehicle wheel cover releasably retained on a wheel by an annular resilient wire ring supported on the rear face of the cover. The ring has a plurality of radial outward projections thereon for releasably engaging the wheel rim. At at least one point around its circumference, the ring has radially outwardly bent parted ends which extend into a radial retaining passageway formed on the cover and which support therebetween a separate metal finger. The finger extends radially outwardly beyond the parted ends of the ring and has sharp pointed edges at its outer end which engage the wheel rim and prevent rotation of the cover relative to the wheel.
