EDWARD E. BARROWS, OF ATTLEBOROGH, MASSACHUSETTS.
IMPnovEMENT iN BRACELETS,
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 150,?4 i, dated May 12, 1874; application iiled March 23, 1874.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EDWARD E. BARRoWs, of Attleborough, Bristol county, Massachusetts, have invented an Improved Manufacture of Bracelets, of which the following is a speciiication This invention relates to a class of bracelets for the wrist composed of an inner band or base 'and an outer covering or body more or less ornate in its character; and such invention consists in the construction of the base, as hereinafter eziplained, whereby great strength and rigidity are obtained, and a desirable and ornamental nish acquired.
The drawings accompanying this specification represent, in Figure l, a perspective view of one-half of a bracelet embodying my improvements. Fig. 2 is a cross-section of the same, and Fig. 3 a perspective view of the inner band or base upon which my improvement is founded.
In carrying my invention into practice I obtain a iiat band or plate, a, of ductile sheet metal, and I turn each edge 4of this band inward upon a narrow; strip, b, of a stiffer or second plate thus formed is japanned or oth- -erwiseornamented and inserted'between the re-enforced edges of the base a, and is confined to the latter by a small quantity of solder at two or moreinvisible points. In someinstances, but not necessarily always, I add to each half of a bracelet thus made a short ribbon or plate, d, of a thin metal, this additional plate being electroplated or otherwise ornamented, and serving to conceal the end of the outer band c, and otherwise to add to the appearance of the bracelet. l
I have striven to obtain three results by my construction of the back or base a: First, to obtain a sharp corner upon each of its raised edges which the outer band or body c shall meet, without leaving a space between the two, and thus obtain a neat andhigmhlyinished appearance 3 and second', to add very greatly to the strength and stiffness of the bracelet; third, employing an y internal strip of solid metal, about which to bend the edges of the base a, I am enabled to obtain amuch thicker edge, as well as a broad flat surface, and to reduce the corners of this edge to a sharper f angle than can be done with a single thickness of metal, and both of these results are oi' greatimportance in bracelets of this character. The plate or sheet a may, if necessary or desirable, be bent entirely about the stitl'-l ening-strip b, as shown in Fig. 4. of the drawings, which is a .section of such sheet and` strip. This construction would add somewhat to the cost, but in some respects might pos,
sess a slight advantage.
I claim- A bracelet composed of the outer covering c, base lining a, and ilange-re-enforcing strips b, constructed and arranged substantially as described and shown.
