TASSEL.
APPLICATION FILED MAR. 13, 1922.

11v VEN TOR FEEDER/C P, PR5 v07" BY ATTORNEY/S U Ni .i
FREDEBIC P. EPRE'VOT, OF BRIDGEPORT, CONNECTICUT, ASSIGNOR TO THE BEAT} CHAIN MANUFACTURING C0., 0}? BRIDGEPORT, CONNECTICUT, A CCRPGRA- TI ON OF CONNECTICUT.
TASSEII- Application filed March is, 1922.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, Fnnnnnic P. PRnvoT, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Bridgeport, in the county of Fairfield and State or Connecticut, have invented certain new and uneful Improvements in Tassels, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to tassels, and particularly to a bead chain tassel. The object of my invention is to provide a simple and economical construction of the tassel head, with which the tassel chain lengths may be readily assembled, and by which they are permanently secured in position by the union of the associated parts of the tassel head.
In the accompanying drawing Fig. 1 is a side elevation of a tassel in which my invention is embodied in one form;
Fig. 2 is a central vertical section through the tassel head drawn to an enlarged scale;
Figs. 3 and 4 are perspective views of the cap and cup elements, respectively, of the tassel head; and
Figs. 5 and 6 are side elevations of the cap and cup elements, respectively, of modified shape.
A tassel of the type to which my invention relates, comprises a head portion A from which depends a group of bead chain lengths B forming the tassel fringe, while a suspension member such as a chain 0 engages the tassel head A. The particular contour of the members of the head A and the particular shape of the bead chain elements which form the tassel fringe, do not enter into the present invention and may be varied in many respects to afford artistic results of different design.
In structure, the tassel head comprises essentially a cap member 7 of generally truncated cone shape. The lower margin of the cap overlies the outer margin of the bottom or cup member 8, which is preferably integral with the tubular element 9 which passes up through the cap member and its top opening 10. The upper end of the tube is spun over the top of the cap at 11, thus holding the two elements of the head rigidly together.
The outer margin of the bottom or cup member 8 is notched at 12 around its periphery, to accommodate the links 13 by which the adjacent end balls 14 and 15 of Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Aug. s, .1922.
Serial No. 543,393.
each of the lengths or" tassel chain are united. In assembled position the end balls 14 are confined within the chamber of the head bythe overhanging lower marginal area 16 of the cap member 7, which forms a closure for the notches 12. The chain lengths are thus securely anchored against escape and depend from the periphery of the cup member 8. The diameter of the ring defined by the pendant tassel chains is sufiicient to accommodate the enlarged end ball 17 of a suspension chain C which passes up through the tubular element 9 of the cup member 8. The suspension device may be of any suitable character; for instance, if a cord is used, it may be passed down through the tubular member 9 and a knot therein of suficient size may be substituted for the enlarged ball 17 of the chain C illustrated.
The cap and cup members 7 and 8 may both be spun from sheet metal or light tubing, and are very readily manufactured. The notches 12 in the cup member 8 may be out either before or after the latter is shaped. The tassel fringe chains are, of course, assembled in the notches 12 of the cup 8 before the cap member 9' is placed in position, and are permanently secured in position when the cap is assembled on the cup, and the flange 11 of the tube 9 is spun over over the top of the cap.
The construction shown in Figs. 5 and 6 is in all essentials the same as that just described, differing therefrom only in shape of the cap and cup elements.
Other modifications in the construction of the parts will readily occur to any one dealing with the problem, and I do not limit myself to the particular details of shape of the parts shown.
I claim:
1. A head chain tassel comprising a tassel head and a tassel group of pendant lengths of head chain supported thereby, said tassel head comprising a bottom member marginally notched around its periphery to receive the links between adjacent heads at the upper attaching ends of the tassel chains, a centrally apertured cap member resting on said bottom member and serving to confine the chain links in said notches, a tubular element associated with said bottom member and passing upward through the cap member and having its upper end spun over the cap member to hold the latter in position on the bottom inembel said tubular member affording a wayioi' asus pension element passing downward there through and freely engaging beneath the bottom member to support the tassel.
2. A construction as specified in claim 1,
in which the tubular member is integral with the bottom member of the tassel head.
: tassel head.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification;
FEEDER-1C P. PREVOT.
