FASTENER FOR BRACELETS.
Application led November 23, 1925. Serial No, 70,370.
The principal objects oit the invention are to provide a cheap .torni of bracelet for securing Wrist Watches which will be very `llenible, will present a good appearance und Will t snugly to the Wrist oil the wearer and the ends of which will be fastened securely to the bracelet member.
The principal feature of the invention consists in securing fastening members to l0 the ends of a length of elastic ouwliich are threaded a number of rings.
ln the drawings, Figure l isla plan View of the outer side or a bracelet constructed in accordance with this invention.
Figure 2 is an underside plan view of the bracelet shown distended. i
Figure 3 is an enlarged longitudinal sectional detail View through the clasp and one of the rings encircling the elastic fabric.
lilxpansible link bracelets ol many different forms of structure have been devised for securing Wrist Watches but they vary in their degrees oi flexibility, expansibility and strength, and constitute a plurality of interlocking units. 'Such constructions are more or less costly and it is desirable to produce a cheap form of bracelet which will present a very good appearance and Will be quite dependable.
ln the present invention a length oll elastic fabric l, preferably silk o' a suitable length to snugly encircle the Wrist has securely liastened to either end a spring clasp 2 of a .suitable design to engage the holding loops oi" a Watch. The clasps 2 are formed or' sheet metal having a box-shaped portion 3 to receive the end of the elastic strip. The box portion 3 has a tongue 4 punched from the under side 5 to engage and gripthe elastic laluic securely.
jands t5 formed of sheet metal strips having the ends bent inwardly are threaded on to the elastic strip and present an appearance similar to the links ol a chain link bracelet.
Such a construction is extremely simple and a br celet may be made in Very attractive form at very low cost or it may be found desirable to use precious metals for the bands and books. ln either case, the bracelet has a remarkable range of expansion and as the elastic may deteriorate through use and time it may be very readily removed trom the metal parts, it being merely necessary to lift they gripping tongue e to release the end hooks and slip the bands olli When they may be readily placed on a new piece oll elastic.
A further feature of advantage in the adoption ot the present invention is that the bracelet may be made very much thinner than those in which the various links are mechanically connected.
lWhat I claim as my invention is y A fastener for bracelets of the flexible fab y ric type, lornfied of a strip of sheet metal having one end bent to form a hook and formed With side flanges turned inwardly, a metal plate secured between the inturned side edges ol said strip and retained by said llanges, said plates having a rectangularshaped lug struck therefrom to project in- Wardly and engage and grip the surface ol the end of the fabric strap inserted between the flanges.
