This invention relates to eye mountings Figure is a rear elevational View of a r for dolls, the primary object of the invenfurther modified form of mounting. i J tion being to provide an eye mounting so 'Figure 11 is a detail yiew'of the weight constructed that movements of the doll will used with one form of the invention. a 5 result in the eyes moving, simulating the Referring tothe drawings in detail, the movements f th human y reference character 5 designates a doll head,
An important object of the invention is which isconstructed of the usual and well to provide a mounting of this character conknown material, the same bein provided structed in such a way that the eyes may i eye' c e s, v d to D. orm to the 0 rock laterally resulting in a rolling or glanccurvature of the eyes or glass balls, common ing motion being imparted to the eyes. 1y used in doll construction. n I v A still further object of the invention is The ey mounting in the preferred form of. a t id an eye ti or bly the invention, includes a stamping in thewhioh is exceptionally cheap to manufacture, form of a plate 6, the same being provided and one which may be readily and easily sewlth extensions .7 formed intermediate its cured in position within the doll face. nds:
With the foregoing and other objects in These extensions 7 have openings to receive view, which will appear as the description the ends of the U-sha ed securing member 8 proceeds, the invention resides in the combithat is embeddedwithin the material of whi h nation and arrangement of parts and in the, the head is rm S0 that the n Ofth details of construction hereinafter described U-shaped'memb r e tend beyond he inner and claimed, it being understood that changes surface of thehead, where they pass into the i in the precise embodiment of the invention openings formed in the stamping or late 6. herein disclosed, may be made within the The am nd e d of the -S apeCF 8 0 1- scope of what is claimed, without departing lng member are now bent over the plate6, from the spirit f th i ti as clealrlyfshown by Figure 4 of the drawings; R f i t th dra i s; secure y E1,St6I1l11 '.th6 plate in osition; Figure i is a ti l ti l i Forming a part of the plate, re sockets 9 through a 1 11 h d i d ith an y of siaes'to accommodate 'the eyeballs 10 in 30 mounting constructed in accordance with. g h a thlnt the eye balls 'I1r1ays, wiI1g the invention ree y w1 in t e mountin but at the same Figure 2 is a vertical sectional view e will h raittle- V through a doll head, taken at right angles i tQ fi sqckets 9 t il Cg? t u e 1' on per ion aving a su s an 1a strai t rigin; 8 is a vertical sectional view lower edge llrand Curved e lz through a doll head, prior to the positionthe Iowa? edges of sockets 9 bemg .dlsii g of the mounting. posedddlrnlntlyl (apposite to eye openings Figure 4 is a sectional view taken on lin (Erma 8 O? purposes to be hemm- 4 4 of Figure 1. a ter more fully described. V 1 r Extending rearwardly from each eye ball,

Figure 6 is an elevational View of a mount- 7 a downward pull on the rods 13, to hold the eye balls in their proper positions, when the doll is held in an upright or vertical position.
When the doll is laid down in a horizontal position, the weight 16 will of course move the eye balls to positions to lend a sleeping appearance to thedoll. Should the doll be,
moved laterally, the eye balls will swing laterally, resulting in a roll or glancing motion being imparted to the eyes.
In the form of the invention :as shown by Figures 8 and 9 of the drawings the mounting comprises a body portion formed of a length of wire 17, which has offset portions 18 curved to conform to the curvature of the eye balls 19, portions of the offset portions extending forwardly where they are provided with eyes 19 providing means whereby securing members may be provided to secure the mounting in position.
Disposed intermediate the ends of the body portion 17, are offsets 20 providing aneye to accommodate the ends of the Ufshaped securing member 21, which has its ends bent over the ofisets, as shown by Figure 8.
An arm 15 is provided with this form of mounting, which arm is supplied with the weight 16 as previously described. I By this construction, it will be seen that a flat supporting surface is provided, and
, stops are formed in the ends thereof to restrict lateral movement of the eye balls.
A modified form of weight is shown by Figures 10 and 11 of the drawings, and comprises an arm 22 bent to provide an offset 23, and laterally extended ends 24:, the ends 24: being secured to the rods that extend from the eye balls.
Mounted within the offset portion 23 is a weight 25 that acts to move theeye balls, as
the doll supplied with the mounting, is tilted of the plate having cut out portions defining elongated flat lower edges and curved upper edges, rods extending fromthe eye balls and passing through the cut out portions of the plate, said rods resting on the flat lower edges of thecut out portions, and weights connected to the free ends of the rods for moving the eye balls within their sockets.
2. Thecombination with a doll head having eye-sockets, of an eye mounting comprisinga plate having sockets, means for securing the plate to the head, the sockets of the plate and head being in registry, eye halls fitted in the sockets, the socket portions of the plate having substantially large openings,
rods extending from the the eye balls and passing through the openings and movable transversely and vertically within the openings, an arm secured to the rods and depending therefrom, and a weighton the arm-"for moving the arm by gravity to operate the eye balls, when the doll head is moved.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own, I have hereto aflixed my signature.
