CHAIN on BRACELET.
' Application filed November 20, 1926. serial No. 149,752.
This invention relatesto an improved construction of chain; and has for itsobject to provide an ornamental chain band or bracelet having spaced chain strands extending the length thereof and having ornamental spacer members positioned between and corn nected-to said chain strands at intervals along their length. A further object of the invention is that these chain strands are arranged alternately in close contact and widely spaced apart relation to form loops and to position an ornament-in each loop opening to hold the loop strands separated,
A further object of the invention is to po: sition a gem settin in the loopopening, the setting being at-tac iedtoopposite edges of the strands to maintain the loop infixed open position also to arrange the-strands tocross alternately over and under each other between the loops whereby an ornamental chain of attractive appearance is produced.
With .these and other objects inview, the invention consists of certain novel features Figure 2 is an edge view of the chain showing the strands thereof asrcrossing alternately overand under each other with a gem setting in the openings between the points of crossing. I
Figure 8' is an enlarged view of the gem setting and showing it as connected to the opposite edges of the strands to hold them in spaced relation.
Figure 4 shows a modified construction in which the strands of the chain are connected together betweenthe loops without crossing each other. y
In the construction of ornamental chains of this character, it is found that a very ornamental design is produced by providing two strands of flexible ornamental chain woven or braided together to pass alternately over and under each other at intervals along their length, the parts of the strands between the crossings being separated to provide a space in which an ornament such as a gem setting may be secured to perform the double function of first securing an orna nentation to the chain and second, to maintain the chain strands in fixed spaced relation between their points of crossing. The
ed, the chain being provided atits endswith suitable attaching means whereby the ends may be connected together or connected to some otherarticle such for instance as a wrist watch, pendant or the like; and the following is a detailed description of the present embodiment of my invention and showing one means by which these advantageous results may be accomplished lVith reference to the drawings, 10 designates the two strands of chain both of which are herein shown as being connected at one I tervals along the length thereof asat- 13, and
that portion of the chain between the points of crossing'are separated as at 14 to provide openings, spaces or loops 15. The opening in these loops being maintained of a fixed size or spaced by positioning another suitable ornamental member between the strands thereof, that herein shown being a gem setting 16, the opposite sides or edges of which are connected by solder or otherwise to the opposite inner edges 17 'of the adjacent chain strands to hold these strands in fixed rela tion to each other intermediate the points of crossing. In this setting may be positioned any suitable design of gem 18 that herein shown being inserted from the bottom to rest against the upper inturned edge 19 of the setting and. a ring-shaped setting member 20 is positioned from the bottom of the setting up against the under edge of the gem and this ring is held in position by the inturned bottom edge 21 of the band-shaped setting but in many instances the band is counterbored from its upper edge forming a shoulder against which the gem may rest. I
In some instances instead of crossin the strands at intervals, I may simply ring them together side by side and connect them together either loosely or rigidly by a member 25, if desired or any other arrangement of these side chain strands may be employed in which the chain strands extend the length of the bracelet or the like and support spacer members between them at intervals along their length.
My improved ornamental chain may be of any desired length to be employed as a band bracelet, as a wrist watch bracelet, as a. necklace, girdle or forany purpose for which it may be adapted and connected to the cross bars 11 and 12 at the ends thereof. 7
I have herein shown eye members 21 on the bars to which are connected the attaching members 22 whereby the ends of this chain may be connected together or may be connected to any other article.
My improved ornamental chain is very handsome and attractive in appearance and by its general construction lends itself to a. great variety of designs as stones or ornaments ofany color, shape or size may be carried by the settings arranged in the openings along the length thereof.
The foregoing description is directed solely towards the construction illustrated, but 1. desire it to be understood that I reserve the privilege of resorting to all the mechanicalehanges to which the device is susceptible, the mvention being defined and limited only by the terms of the appended claims.
I claim:
1. A chain structure comprising two separate continuous flexible chain strands each extending the length of the structure, secured together at their opposite ends and arranged to cross each other at intervals along their length, the strands being spaced apart between the points of crossing to form loops, and an ornamental spreader member positioned between these strands in each opening to maintain the spread of the strands be tween these points of insertion.
2. A chain structure comprising two separate unbroken flexible chain strands extending the length of the structure, secured together at their opposite ends andarranged sitioned in the loop opening and secured to inside edges of the strands tomaintain the loops in open arrangement.
A chain structure comprising two separate flexible chain strandsextending the vlength of the structure, secured together at their opposite ends and arranged to cross alternately overand under each other at intervals along the. length of the chain, the strands being spaced apart between the points of crossing to form open loops there in, said strands being unattached toeach other at the points ofcrossing, and a gem setting in said loop spaces attachedto inside edges of said strands to maintain said loops in open position and gems mounted in the settings. 1 v
4. A chain structurecomprising two separate flexible chain strands extending the length of the structure, a cross bar at each end of the strands securing them together, said strands being arranged to cross each other over and under alternately, thestrands between the points of crossing being spaced a substantial distance apart forming open loops, an ornamental member in said loops secured to the strands thereof to, maintain them in spaced relatiomand attaching members connected to said end barsof the chain.
5. A chain structure comprising two separate flexible chain strands extending the length of the structure, secured together at their opposite ends and arranged in alter nate widely-spaced and close contact formation the widely-spaced portions forming loops, and an ornamental spreader member in each loop to maintain the strands of the loop in spread position. a
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature.
