EMBLEM.
Application filed May 3, 1922. Serial No. 558,195.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, THEODORE C. GLASER, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Newark, county of Essex, and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Emblems, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to an improved emblem in the form of a charm, locket or other article of jewelry, and is also adapted for use on desk pads, calendars and similar means of display, the device being constructed so that when closed, superimposed members adapted to swing show on their faces an emblem or similar insignia or design, and when open disclose an emblem or design underneath and also form portals for the exposed design.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which Figure 1 is a face View of a charm made according to my invention. Figure 2 is a side view of Figure 1, and Figur 3 is a similar view with the swinging 'members open. Figure 4 is a face view of Figure 3, and Figure 5 is a central section taken vertically on Figure 1, with the upper part shown in elevation.
While the invention can be applied to many different articles, and can carry insignia or designs of many different kinds, for the purpose of clear description and illustration I am limiting this specification to the description of the invention as applied to a charm or locket, and the design or emblem is a Masonic one.
The device comprises a face plate which can be of any size and form, but I show it in the form of a charm 10, on which are arranged swinging members, in this particular form there being two such members 11 and 12 which are arranged to swing on the hinges 13 so that they can be folded so that they abut and rest fiat against the face of the 45 plate 10, or can be swung outward at right angles thereto. On the face plate itself is a design or emblem 14 which is disposed so that its major portion is concealed when the members 11 and 12 are swung together, as shown in Fi ure 1.
In the drawing the members 11 and 12 have on the face of them the conventional compass and square which conceals the stairs and the letter G of the design 14, but when the members are swung apart the last mentioned design is in view and the members 11 and 12 assume the position shown in Figures 3 and 4. In this position the swinging members appear as a portal to the design 14, and to further carry out this appearance the edges, Where the members 11 and 12 abut, are made of substantial thickness so that the said edges 15, shown in Figure 4, form part of the design 14 in that they flank it and appear as columns or the like through which the design 14 is seen, and when the members 11 and 12 are made of material thickness the projecting parts of the members form stops for the outward swinging of the members, thus limiting them to their parallelposition, this engagement being evident from Figure 3.
The respective conformatlons of the inner faces of the members 11 and 12, and of the front face of the plate 10, are such that the 7 members 11 and 12 fit tightly against the face of the plate 10 and have their outer faces substantially flush.
It willbe evident from this description that the device embodies two separate and distinct emblems or symbols, one being formed by the swinging membersiwhen they I are closed, and the other being formed by the design on the face of the plate 10.p1us the edges of the members 11 and 12, these edges being in relief and substantially advanced from the face of the plate 10 so 1 that these members appear as portals or gates to the design on the plate.
I claim: 7
1. An article of the kind described com-- prising an emblem formed on the face of a plate, opposed members hinged to the plate so as to swing together to conceal the emblem, and having on their outer faces a 95 second emblem, themembers where they Q 1,e75,ese
ing movement when they are at right angles, 10
the covering member having its edge so formed that it is part of the design of the other when the emblems are swung apart.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing,
I have hereto set my hand, this 2nd day of l5- May, 1922.
THEODORE C. GLASER.
