CHATELAINE-BROOCI-I OR LIKE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Got. 42, 1913.
Application filed. October 8', 1912. serial No. 724,542.
To all whom 2'15 may concern Be it known that 1, Tonnes A. TOBIASSON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Irving-ton, in the county of'EsseX and State of New Jersey, have invented certain Improvements in Chatelaine-Brooches or the like, of which the following is a specification.
The objects of this invention are to provide in a Chatelaine brooch or the like suspension means from which the watch orother article cannot become accidentally lost; to provide means which positively prevent escape of the watch or other article from its hook; to enable the article, at the same time to be readily hung upon the hook and removed therefrom when desired; to provide such means which shall be inconspicuous and lend themselves to ornamentation; to secure simplicity of construction and operation, and to obtain other advantages and results, as may be brought out in the following description.
Referring to the accompanying drawings, in .which like numerals of reference indicate the same parts throughout the several figures, Figure 1 is a front view of my improved chatelaine brooch in use; Fig. 2 is a sectional view taken on line AA of Fig. 1, and Fig. 3 is a similar sectional view showing the tongue released.
In said drawings, 1 indicates the body portion of the chatelain brooch upon the back of which is secured transversely thereof a hinged pin 2 for supporting the brooch upon a garment or the like when desired. In carrying out the particular design of brooch shown more especially in Fig. 1, two extensions 3, 3 forming a part of the body portion 1 converge downward and forward and unite as at 43 forming a tongue 5 which curves upwardly toward the body portion 1 again. The forward bend of the two extensions 3, 3 and the upward inward curve of the tongue 5, provide between the body portion 1 and said tongue a loop or space, the tongue itself being resilient and tending at all times to keep its upper end pressed against the body portion 1. A closed hook for the support of a watch 6 or any other desired article is thereby provided, although it will be evident that the insertion or removal of the bow 7 of the watch 6 is readily effected by drawing the tongue 5 outward away from the body portion. As a further precaution against the accidental removal or theft of the article suspended by the hook, I preferably provide means at the upper end of the tongue 5 to more positively secure closed engagement thereof with the body portion 1. This means comprises a ball 8 or the like secured upon the said body portion so that its center is in front of the face of the body portion, and the hall thus provides an undercut recess 9 adjacent its pointof attachment to the body portion. The upper end of the tongue 5 is preferably forked, as at 10, providing lips 11, 11 which spread apart and normally lie against the front of the ball by virtue of the spring action of the tongue previously referred to. Furthermore, these lips are preferably beveled or chamfered at their inner diverging edges, the bevel being directed inwardly toward the body portion, as shown. By pressing upon the upper part of the tongue 5 the beveled edges of the lips 11, 11 which are restingv against the ball 8 will slide on the sloped surface thereof and snap under the ball into the recess 9 formed thereby, as shown in Fig. 2.
In order to facilitate the ready insertion of the how 7 of the watch or other articleover the lips 11, 11 onto the tongue 5, the ends of said lips are preferably bent forwardly away from the body portion 1 as at 12, 12, so that said ends of the lips are not in immediate engagement with the body portion but inclined outwardly from the same.- Hence the tongue will be forced away from the body portion by pressing the bow onto said tongue between the inclined end of either lip and the said body portion.
It is desirable in shaping the lips to have them conform as nearly as possible to the design of the brooch, for which reason they will differ in shape in different designs of brooches, but nevertheless be adapted to fulfil the function of securing means as just described. In order, also, to render the securing means less conspicuous, a second ball 13 forming a part of the body portion 1 of the brooch spans the space between the extensions 3, 3 above the first described ball 8 and not only secures said extensions rigidly together but makes the securing means including the first-mentioned ball 8 appear as part of the design.
Having thus described the invention, what I claim is:
1. The combination with a body portion having a tongue bowed outwardly therefrom to form a hook with its free end returned adjacent to said body portion, of a projection on said body portion forming at its'side an undercut recess and having outside said recess an overhang outwardly sloping away from said recess, said projection being positioned so that said tongue will normally lie with its extremity extending past the nose of said overhang either in the recess or outside the overhang and said extremity can be snapped from one position to the other by springing the bowed portion of the hook.
2. The combination with a body portion having a tongue bowed outwardly therefrom to form a hook and having its free end returned adjacent to said body portion and normally forced toward the same by resiliency, of a projection on said body portion, forming at its side next the attachment of said tongue to the body portion an undercut recess and having outside the same an overhang outwardly sloping away from said recess, said projection being positioned so that the extremity of the tongue will normally lie against the slope of the overhang and the resiliency of said bowed tongue will enable said extremity to be snapped into and out of said recess.
3. The combination with a body portion having a tongue bowed outwardly therefrom to form a hook on its front and having its free end returned adjacent to said body portion in front of the same and normally forced rearwardly toward the same by resiliency, said tongue having a transverse edge at its extremity, of a projection on said body portion in alinement with said tongue and forming at its side next the attachment of said tongue to the body portion an undercut recess adapted to receive said transverse edge of the tongue to hold the tongue against the body portion, said.
projection providing a slanting surface over which said transverse edge can be slid by pressure on said tongue to insert said transverse edge into said undercut recess.
4;. The combination with a body portion having atongue bowed outwardly therefrom to forma hook and having its free end returned-adjacent to said body portion and cleft in a plane perpendicular thereto, of a ball projecting from said body portion in the cleft of said tongue and adapted to be resiliently engaged thereby.
5. The combination with a body portion having a tongue forming a hook and returned at its free end adjacent to said body portion and having diverging lips, of a projection on said body portion adapted to lie between said diverging lips and having an undercut recess to receive the same.
6. The combination with a body portion having a tongue forming a hook and returned at its free end adjacent to said body portion and having diverging lips beveled at their front edges, of a projection on said body portion adapted to lie between said diverging lips and having an undercut recess to receive the said beveled edges thereof.
7. The combination with a body portion having a tongue forming a hook and returned at its free end adjacent to said body portion and having diverging lips curved outward away from the body portion toward their ends, of a projection on said body portion adapted to lie between said diverging lips and having an undercut recess to receive the same at their junction and expose said flared extremities.
