' PROVIDENCE, RHODE ISLAND ORNAMENTINGDEVICE AND METHOD or MAKINGTHE SAME Application filed. December My invention relates to devices adapted for use in the fabrication of jewelry and of articles of personal adornment;

The primary objects of my invention are to enable the. employment of drilled beads, which are common articles of commerce, for ornamental purposes; to avoid the use of radial arms as well as solder; to enable a more conventionaland uniform simulation of a cluster than heretofore possible and to combine strengthwith inexpensiveness. 9

To the above ends essentially. my invention consists in such parts and in such combinatlOIISfOf'PELI'tS, and in such steps and in such successions of steps as fall Within the scope of theappended claims. V 5 i In the accompanying drawings which form apart of thisspecification,

In constructing myv device an abutment plate member 15 of any desired outline, and formed or shaped up from any preferred hard material, is, asshown in Figure 5, pro-.

vided with a central hole 16, and with a plu- 7, 1929. Serial No. 412,335.

rality of annularly arranged perforations 17 surrounding the former.

A plurality of straight metallic binding rods or blunt pins 19 comprise pliable bodies andflattened heads 21. These r'ods,in this instance four in number, are inserted upwardly through the perforations 17 with their heads 21 abutting against the member 15. A straight clamping rod 23 of pliable metal has integral with or fixed to the lower end of its body portion a spherical ornament 25. This rod also is upwardly injected through the perforation 16 of the abutment member, with its head or ornament 25 abutting against thebottom face of the latter.

Spherical ornaments or beads 27 have diametrical boresor passages 28. Threaded upon each of the binding'rods 19 through the bores 27 are a vertical series of beads 27of gradually increasing diameter upwardly, 'in this instance five' in each series. Threaded upon the clamping rod 23, intermediate its length through its bore 29 is a bead or ornament 30. After the threading operation the upper ends of the upwardly and'outwardly inclined rods 19 are inwardly bent and, with pliers, eyes 32 are formed upon their upper extremities,

The parts which appear, as shown in Fig-- .ure 8, with the series of ornaments 27 disposed in vertical rows are next manually given a torsional twist-whereby the-vertical rows of ornaments are now spirally disposed, as shown in Figures 10 and 11. In Figure 9 is shown the spiral shapeof the rods 19 after the twisting step. The device is completed by threading an ornamental clamping plate 37 upon the rod 23 which passes through a central perforation 38 in the center of the plate. In detail the plate, as shown in Figure 6, comprises a cup shaped body 39-divided int-o radial segments 40 whose free lower ends 7 snugly engage the uppermost beads 27 of the the plate 37 against the beads, and the ring 42 against the cup. Thus no part of the device has any rotary orother movement rela tively to the rod 23,01 relatively to each other. i i Iclaim r 1. In an article of the character described, a plurality of annularly arranged binding rods, series or ornaments mounted upon each of the rods, an abutment member engaging the lower ends of the rods, a binding loop connecting'the upper ends of the rods, a clamping rod engaging the abutment member at its lower end, and a plate upon the upper portion of the rod engaging the series of ornaments. 1

2. In an article of the character described,

annularly arranged binding rods, an abutment member connecting the lower ends of the rods, means for binding the upper endsof the rods,-series of ornaments mounted upon the rods and provided with bores through which the rods pass, aclamping rod engaging the abutment and disposed concentrically of the firstvrods, and a clamping plate upon the upper portion of'the clamping rod resting upon the uppermost ornaments of the series.

3. In an article of the character described, annularly arranged upwardly diverging binding rods, .an abutment member connecting the lower ends of the rods, a loop binding the upper portions of the rods, a series of ornaments of graduated sizesupon each rod,

a clamping rod carried by the abutment mem.- ber concentrically of the binding rods, and a clamping plate rigid with the binding rod engaging the uppermost ornaments of each series.

- 4. In an article of the character described, an abutment member provided with an annular series of perforations and with a hole dis- I posed centrally of the series, binding rods passing through the perforations, a clamping rod passing through the hole, heads upon the lower ends of the binding rods engagingthe lower face of the abutment member,

an ornament fixed to the lower end of the clampin rod engaging the lower face of the I .aoutment member, eyes upon the upper ends of the first rods, a ring integral with the upper end of the clamping rod, a binding loop Gui passing through the eyes, series of ornaments mounted upon the rods engaging the abutment and the eyes, and a clamping plate upon the clamping rod adjacent the ring engaging the uppermost ornaments of the serles.

5. I11 an article of the character described, a plurality of annularly arranged binding rods, an abutment in which the lower ends of the rods are fixed and provided with a central hole, and connecting the upper portions of the rods, series of ornaments mounted on the rods and provided with bores through which the rods pass, a clamping rod fixed at its lower end extending through the hole, an ornament upon the lower end, of the clamping rod engaging the lower face of the abutment member, an ornament inountednpon an intermediate portion of the last mentioned rod engaging the series of ornaments, an ornamental clamping plate upon the clamping rod engaging the uppermost ornaments of the series, and a ring upon the upper extremity of the last mentioned rod abutting against the clamping plate.

6. In an article of the character described, a plurality of annularly arranged spirally disposed binding rods, series of ornaments mounted upon the rods and provided with diametrical bores through which the rods pass, an abutment member engaging the lower ends of the rods and upon which the series rest, means for binding the upper portions of the rods, a clamping rod rigid at its lower end withthe abutment member and disposed centrally of the first mentioned rods, and a clamping plate rigid with the upper portion of the clamping rod abutting against the uppermost.ornamentsof the series.

7. A method of forming an ornamenting device consisting in providing an abutment plate with an annular series of perforations and with a hole concentric with the series, inserting upwardly through the perforations pliable binding rods provided with heads upon their lower ends abutting against the lower face of the abutment plate, inserting upwardly through the hole a pliable clamping rod of greater length than the first rods provided with an ornament upon itslower end abutting against the lower face of the abutment plate,' threading.upon each of the binding rods a series of ornaments through bores in the ornaments, threading upon the clamping rod an ornament provided with a bore for the reception of the clamping rod, bending the upper extremities of the first mentioned rods into eyes, threading a wire through the eyes and twisting the ends of the wire, inserting the upper end of the clamping rod through a central perforation of a clamping plate, and forcing the plate into engagement with the uppermost ornaments of the series by bending the material of the portion of the clamping rod above the plate into a ring abutting against the plate;
