MEYER, OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK, ASSIGNOB, TO JOSEPH H. BROTHERS, F BROOKLYN, NEW YORK, A CORPORATION OF NEW' YORK ARTICLE OF JEWELRY Application filed March 7,
This invention relates in general to articles of jewelry and more particularly to earrings.
One of the objects of this invention is the provision of an earring which is exceedingly simple in construction, adapted to cheap and rapid manufacture, and of a rugged construction.
Another object of this invention is the provision of an earring which fits onto the lobe of the car so as to lie snugly thereagainst without metal parts in contact with the lobe of the ear.
A still further object of this invention is the provision of a spring support to which the ear ornaments are attached so that the whole structure may be frictionally secured to the ear in a manner to prevent irritation thereof.
A still further object of this invention is the provision of an earring which has no I screws for securing it to the ear and no exposed wires or portions in which the hair may be caught.
These and other objects, as will appear from the following disclosure are secured by means of this invention.
This invention resides substantially in the combination, arrangement and relative location of parts. all as will be more fully dis- 3o closed hereinafter.
Referring to the drawings Figure 1 is a side elevational view of the device; I
Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view of the arrangement of Fig. 1 taken on the line 22 of Fig. 1;
Fig. 3 is a vertical sectional view of the nevice taken on the line 33 of Fig. 2;
Fig. l is a vertical sectional View similar to that of Fig. 3 of the whole structure showing the spring member separated from the ornaments Fig. 5 is a side elevational view with a portion broken away of a modified arrangement showing the ear lobe in dotted lines;
Fig. 6 is an end elevational view of the ornament used in the modified form; and
Fig. 7 is a perspective view of the spring to which the ornaments are at ached.
Referring to the drawings for a detailed 1928. Serial .No. 259,625.
description, the device is shown comprising two ornaments 1, 1 of any suitable size, shape and color supported on a U-shaped spring member 2. The ornaments 1 have small holes bored in from under in which are secured the screwed thereon tightly so as not to readily become loose. The rod may then be formed into the U-shape form shown in the figures.
In the modified form the ear ornaments 10, 10 are provided with holes extending a short distance therein in which the U-shaped spring member 11 is secured by means of wax or other suitable cement 13. The holes for the ear ornament 10 are indicated at 12 in Fig. 6. The spring 11 is curved at its free ends sli htly so that when the earring is being worn the spring 11 will tend to cause the ornaments to grip the ear. Both devices are secured to the ear lobe as indicated in Fig. 5 in which the ear lobe is held between the two ornaments by reason of the friction therewith caused by the spring support.
From the foregoing description it will be apparent that the device is very simple in construction presenting a neat and ornamental eifect. In view of the relatively large '1 area of contact of the ornaments with each side of the ear lobe the earring does not cause irritation and yet firmly grips the ear lobe so as not to be easily displaced.
It will be apparent from the foregoing de-" purposes of disclosure but rather to the in-L vention as it is defined in the appended claims.
What I seek to secure by United States Letters Paten is:
1. In an earring, the combination with two recessed lenticular ornaments, each of said ornaments havin an outer surface thereof flattened, of thre fied tubes securely mounted in said recesses in said ornaments, a rounded U- shaped spring member having threaded ends to provide threaded attachment of said member to said ornaments and to permit of such disposition of said ornaments that the respective flattened portions of the surfaces of each of said ornaments face each other in spaced apart relation and are adapted to come together and frictionally hold therebetween the lobe of the ear of the wearer of such ornament.
2. In an earring, the combination with two lenticular shaped ornaments, each of said ornaments having a rectangular shaped recess therein, and a portion of the outer surface thereof flattened, a rectangular U-shaped flattened spring member having ends adapted to attachment to said ornaments by insertion in said rectangular shaped recesses, means securing such rectangular U-shaped spring member to said ornaments to permit of such disposition of saidornaments that the respective flattened portions of the surfaces of each of said ornaments face each other in spaced apart relation and are adapted to frictionally hold therebetween the lobe of the ear of the wearer.
3. In an earring, the combination with two recessed lenticular ornaments, each of said ornaments having an outer surface thereof flattened, of a U-shaped spring member having its free ends secured within said recesses to provide attachment of the member to the ornaments and to permit of such disposition of the ornaments that the respective fiattened portions of the surfaces of each of said ornaments face each other in spaced relation so that they can frictionally engage the lobe of the ear of the wearer therebetween.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand on this 23rd day of February, A. D.
