OIflCOIIITlBCtQfltOgGtllGlQ-QSTmay have been dea The charm or emblem link as constructed in one form comprises a front plate 9 having a suitable emblem 10 on its face, the plate preferably being approximately oblong and it is connected to a box wall having a top portion 11 and a bottom portion 12 and also two approximately arcuate ends, one end preferably comprising a main portion 13 and relatively angular portions 14: and
connected with the top and bottom portions respectively, the opposite end comprising a main portion 16 and relatively angular portions 17 and 18 connected to the top and bottom portions respectively. A back plate 19 corresponding in contour to the front plate 9 and the box wall is connected to the box wall, so that there is space between the front and back plates of the link. One end wall has a slot or hole 20 which extends partially in the portion 13 and partially in the portion 14, and the opposite end has a slot or hole 21 which is partially in the portion 16 and partially in the portion 17. The emblem link is provided with two devices for connecting it to the chain sections, the devices being originally separate from the emblem link and are designed to be secured to the link when required. The connecting devices are alike but reversedly arranged in connection with the emblem link, one device comprising a non-continuous ring or eye 22 having shank members 23 and 242 that extend from opposite sides of the gap in the ring or eye in spaced apart relation so as to permit either member to pass through a chain link, and the shank members have crooks 25 and 26 on their ends from which extend wings 27 and 28 respectively adjacentto the outer sides of the shank members, the wings extending outwardly from the members. The complete device is composed of elastic material. of the character of spring wire; The
opposite device comprises a ring 22. shank members 23 and 24 having crooks 25 and 26 and associated wings 27' and 28. When the devices are finally assembled the shank members 23 and 24 are locatedin the slot 20' and the shanks 23 and 24 are located in the slot 21, so that the rings shall project from the upper corners of the chain link.
hen it is desired to use the charm chain on a coat or an outing shirt or garmenta button or pin 29 is provided which hasan eye 30 that is connected to the end of one section of the chain, leaving the other section of the chain connected with a watch, as
is customary. In such cases the chain hangs from the button or pin and the chain link is slightly modified so as to be centrally suspended and may be shaped so as to have an approximately oval front plate 31 having a desired emblem 32 on its face, also back plate the link having side wall portions 34 and 35 and curved end wall portions 36 and 37, each end wall portion having a slot 38 centrally arranged therein to receive the shank members of the connecting rings.
In some cases the charm link may have a front plate 39 of shield form on which is a suitable emblem 40, the shield contour including corner wall portions 41 and 42 relatively obtuse angled, similar to the wall portions 13 and 14, and opposite corner wall portions 43 and 44 of similar contour, the rings 22 and 22 being connected to such corner portions, so that the major portion of the link shall be pendant when the chain is supported at its ends.
In practical use, after a particular style of chain has been selected and a suitable ei'nblem link has also been selected, in case the chain is not divided into two sections, one of the links of the chain is readily cut by a suitable instrument and discarded, after which aring 22 is connected with a link 5 of the chain section, and the crooks and26 are entered in the slot in one end. of the emblem link and pushed through the slot, the wings 27 and 28 sliding against the ends of the slot and being forced toward the shank members 23 and 2d, the shank members being forced together. until the wings have passed through the slot permitting the shank members of the wings to spring apart so that the ends of the wings shall come in contact with the wall portions adjacent to the slot. The companion ring 22 is like-wise connectedwith a link? of the remaining chain section and also with the opposite end of the charm link. The wings are inaccessible from the outside of the link and therefore cannot be drawn back to permit them to pass through the slot, therefore the ring becomes permanently secured in place. The outspread wings in the narrow space between the front and back plates'of the link prevent the rings from turning about in the slots or hoies, and therefore the emblem link is not likely to turn over so as to obscure its face.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is- 1. A charm chain emblem link comprising a broad front plate and a broad back plate and also a narrow wall connected to the two plates with a narrow space between the plates, the wall having an aperture therein, a supporting ring provided with a shank extending through the aperture and having elastic securing devices thereon, the devices normally engaging the wall and standing apart a distance greater than the distance between the front and back plates and permanently holding the shank in the aperture and also preventing rotation of the shank iu the aperture.
2. A charm chain link comprising a wall having two attachment portions, each portion being approximately arcuate and having an aperture therein, a broad front plate and a broad back plate connected to the wall with a narrow space between the plates, and two supporting rings having each a shank extending through the apertures respectively, each shank comprising two members having elastic wings thereon respectively that normally engage the inner side of the attachment portion adjacent to the aperture therein and permanently secure the shank in the aperture, the distance from tip to tip of the wings being greater than the distance between the front and back plates. i
3. A charm chain comprising two chain sections composed of small links, a' relatively large hollow link having abroad front plate and a broad back plate and a 1 narrow wall connected thereto with a narrow space between the plates, two portions of the wall having each an aperture therein between the planes of the plates, and two rings having shanks extending through the aperturesrespectively, each shank having .wlngs thereon engaging the wall portion to permanently secure the shank in' place, vthe I distance from tip to tip of the wings being greater than the distance between to prevent i'ot'ationof the hollow, link on the shank, one'of the rings being connected to a link of one of the chain sections, the
other of the rings being connected to a link" the plates
