1;:1. i;. J}: T'i'" 111 I 1 Application filed March 27, 1925. Serial No. 18,884.
ToaZZ whom it ma'y'coacern:
a citizen of the United, States, resi'c ling at and State of "Rho'de Island, have invented certain new and "useful Improvements in Safety Catches, ofwhich the following is "a spec1ticat1on. I
This .lIlVQIitlOh A relates to an improved construction ,of safety catches for pins,
brooches-and tlie'likefand has for its object to provide af'safety catch of this character comprising a body portion formed of a pair of cars folded up'froin 'a common base t-he inner surfa'ce ofthe ears being each provided with. cooperating annulargrooves in which scribed, andparticularly pointed out inthe appended claims.
In the accompanying drawings:
Figure 1 is a side elevation showing my improved catch as mounted on the back of a bar pin and retaining the pointed end of the fastening pin-stem.
Figure 2 is a view showing this catch member as swaged from sheet stock while in extended position.
Figure 3 illustrates the ear members as partially folded up from the base.
Figure 4 is a central sectional view through the base portion of the body member with the guard member removed.
Figure 5 is the same as Figure 4 with the guard member mounted in the groove of the body and showing its operating handlev as extending from the groove and laterally over to engage one sideof the ear portion, the guard member being in open position.
Figure 6 is the same as Figure 5 showing the guard member as having been rotated to closed position.
Figure 7 is a side elevation showing the. guard member as provided with an elonlOVilClQDCQ. in .the county of Providence.
H v v gated operating handle in extended position. Be it known that I, EUG NE Monnfrrous'ii,
Figure 8 is a sectional view showing the operating handle of the guard member as folded over and about one side of one of the ear members.
iFigure 9 is an edge view illustrating the" operating arm as extending througha slot infthe back of the body and over to oneside thereof about a portion of the ear to retain the 'guard' even thoughthe ear members may become widely separated. v U I This I invention is an improvement 'on prior Patent No. 1,054,701, clatter/Lama, 1913, both being owned byltliesame assignee.
'lt is found. in the prat'ztical construction aiidjoperati'o'n of safety'catches of this character, ofadvantage to provide simple and effective means'wherbythe guard niember is unable tobecome disengaged fromitsflgroove in the body of the catclnieven though the ear members should become widely separated as issometimes the 'case When'the'c'atch has been subjected. to extraordinary strains thereby preventing the release of the pinstem and loss of'the bar pin'or "'rooch'pn which the catch may be" mounted; and to accomplish this in a simple and effective way, Ifhave formed an operating handle on the rotor ,keeper, ofextended length and have folded or extendedthe same over and around toengage one side of one ofthe ear members so that even though these ear memhere should become widely separated by some undue strain at their usual meeting edges the guard member mounted therein, would be prevented from becoming disengaged from its operating position and would still function to retain the pointed end of the pin-stem; and the following is a detailed description of the present embodiment of my invention showing one means by which these advantageous results may be accomplished:
With reference to the drawings, 10 designates the base of a bar pin or other form of jewelry 011 which the usual pin-stem 11 is mounted and 12 designates my improved safety catchwhich is designed to receive and retain the pointed end of this pin-stem also mounted thereon. 7
My improved safety catch may be formed preferably of two cooperating ear members 13 connected to a common base 14. Each of these ears is provided with a radial slot 15 for the reception of the pin-stem and about i the center of this slot is formed annular folded In the back of these ears a slot 18 is 7 formed which communicates With the annui 18 in the back of the ears and is bent over and so serve to effectively retain the guard lar groove 16 therein.
the opening in the ears to permit of free entrance of the point of the pin-stem there- 'into. This guard member is provided with an elongated operatinghandle preferably formed integral 'with'the back thereof and is arranged to extend out through the slot laterally about the one side of one of the ears 1?), and is preferably arranged to ex tend around in' a semicircle'about onevear in operative position in its mounting to continue to fLlIlOtlOIl' even though these ears 7 should be widely separated by some extraordinary force brought to bear thereon, and
so still retain the'pointed end of the pinstem in the catch even under such extraordinary circumstances. This device is very simple and practical in construction and 'ef% fective in'its operation, and. when its guard member is formed with'its elongated encircling arm the element of safety in this catch is increased to a considerable extent. a
The foregoing description isdirect'ed solely towards the construction illustrated, but
'I desire it to be understood that I reserve the privilege of resorting to all the mechanical changes to which the device is susceptible, the invention being defined and limited only by the terms of the appended claims.
' I claim: j
This ring-shaped vguard member is provided with a peripheral opening 19 which is of a size to register with guard from becoming common base andhaving a radially-disposed peripheral pin-tongue receiving slot, the inner face of eachear being provlded with an annular groove, a ring-shaped guard rotor' having a 'marginal pin-tongue receiving opening and slidably' groove, and ,an operating handle on said guard extending laterally over and about one side of one ear member to prevent the disengaged from its groove even though t 1e ear members should become separated.
mounted in said r 2. A.safety catch having a body portion 1 formed ofa pair of side ears folded up: from a common base and having a radlally-dlsposed peripheral pin-tongue receiving slot,
the inner face of each ear bein'gprovided with an annular groove, a peripheral slot in Y said ears communicating with said groove, a ring-shaped guard-rotor having a mangana'l pin-tongue receiving opening and slidably mounted'in said groove, and an operatinghandleon said guard extending outthrough said slot and folded. over laterally to engage the side wall of one ear member to retain the rotor in operative position in its car even though said ear members should become separated widely. r
, 3. A safety catchcomprising a body p'or i tion havingva pair of ears with pin-tongue receiving slots therein, a guard rotatably mounted in said ears, and an operating handle on said guard extending over and about one of said ear members to prevent the guard from becoming disengaged from its ear member should the ear members become separated.
