Abstract: A hand bicycle pump of generally cylindrical configuration essentially comprising a pump body adapted to be reciprocated on a pump rod. An air circulation chamber communicates at one end through the compression piston with the compression chamber in the pump body and at the other end via a check valve with a connector adapted to couple temporarily the pump to an inflation valve of an inflatable body, e.g. a tire. The desired inflation pressure is preselected by rotating a sleeve, accessible from outside the pump, having an index, relative graduations along a slot in the pump body. The sleeve varies the spring force exerted against one end of a piston control member, the other end of which is subjected to the pressure inside the inflatable body so that once the desired pressure is reach the control member is displaced axially to bring the compression chamber into communication with the atmosphere.

Abstract: A toe clip for the pedals of bicycles or other pedal vehicles. The toe clip is formed from a flat cutout metal blank which is suitably bent to form the usual toe receiving space between the toe supporting portion and a turned back portion. For fastening the toe clip to any of various types of pedals, for common road bicycles or for racers, the toe clip is provided with side panels which are bent downward at right angles to the toe supporting portion, these panels forming gusset plates for strengthening the connection of the toe clip to its pedal. Extending from one side of each gusset plate is an apertured fastening lug which may be bent inwardly or outwardly at right angles to the gusset plates or left in the plane thereof, depending on what type of pedal the toe clip is to be fitted. The rear bearing edges formed on the gusset plate bear against the longitudinal face of the pedal frame on which the toe clip is mounted.
