JOHN DOYLE, OF LINNTON, OREGON.
EMBLEM.
Application filed. April 28, 1925. Serial No. 26,379.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it hereby known that LJOHN M.DOYLE, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Linnton, in the county of Multnon'iah, and State of Oregon, have invented a new and useful Fimblen'i, of which the following is a specification. i
This invention relates generally to the jewelers art, and particularly to the construction of a collapsible watch charm such as are commonly worn by Masons.
The first object of this invention is the construction of an exceedingly simple and unique form of watch charm or ei'nblem in which the square and compass are the outstanding elements. p
The second object is 0 so construct the charm that it may be closed for the purpose of preventing same from catching on the clothing or other articles.
The third object is to so construct the charm that the letter Gr, which forms the central element, will be held in a central position regardless of the particular form in which the compass and square may occu- P These, and other ob ects, are accomplished in the manner set forth in the following specification as illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which:
Figure 1 is a front elevation of the device in its open or extended form of which Fig;- ure 2 is a side elevation and Figure 3 is a front elevation showing the charm closed.
Similar numbers of reference refer to the 1 same parts throughout the several views.
Referring in detail to the drawing, which is at a much enlarged scale, the device consists of a compass having a pair of legs and a hinge pin 11. A ring 12 is formed integral with one of the legs 10 and is provided with a hole 13 to receive the link 1 1 by means of which the charm is'suspended from a chain or other contrivance.
Between the members 10 is placed a pendant bar 15 having formed near its mid sec tion the letter G 16, which is common to articles of this nature. The lower end i? of the bar 15 is provided with a slot 18 through which passes a pin'19 which forms a hinged joint for the arms 20, one of which is preferably graduated, as shown. The pins 21 pass through the arms and through the legs 10, which are spaced from each other by the washers mounted on the pins 21.
The operation of the charm is as follows:
In the form shown in Figure 1 if it is desired to change same to the form shown in Figure 3 it is only necessary to move the points of the compass together under the pressure of the fingers. Since they are held in position only by friction this is very easily done. To reverse their position it is only necessary to separate the compass points.
In some quarters of the square and compass are without the letter Gr this globe where the sometimes used may be omitted,
although this omission would rarely be the case.
I am aware that the compass and square and the letter G have long been employed together as a Masonic emblem: itis therefore pass hinged at the union of its legs with a square hinged at the union of its arms and at the intersection of said arms with the legs of saidco-mpass.
2. In a charm, the combination'of a compass ,hinged at the union of its legs with a square hinged at the union of its arms and at-the intersection of said ari'ns with the legs of said compass; anda pendant bar having formed thereon the letter G and having means for holding said letter midway between the legs of said compass.
3. In a charm, the combination of a pair of compass legs hinged at their joined end, one of said legs having a perforated extension formed thereon; a pendantbar between said legs supporting the letter G and having its lower end slotted; a square having a hinged joint working in the slot of said pendant bar. and having hinged connections to said compass legs adapted to permit said compass and square to be foldedpassing through the upper end of said bar together. I and having its legs hinged to the arms of 4. In a charm, the combination of a square said compass in a manner that when the said having its arms joined together by means compass is closed it Will also close said 5 of a pin; a slotted bar slidably receiving square and hold said letter G in an inter said pin and having thereon a letter G: 'mediate position at all times. t a jointed compass having its pivot pin JOHN M. DOYLE.
