CUFF LINK A lication filed September 29, 1e30,","seriainoQ-1sa252..
My invention relates to improvements in cuff links, and it consists in the combinations, constructions and arrangements hereinafter described and claimed.
An object of my invention is to provide a cufl link in which yielding means connects the two button portions together, and in which additional means is provided for limiting the movement of the buttons away from each other. The yielding means permits the buttons to remain fastened to a cuff when the latter is pulled over the hand. This does away with the trouble of unfastening the cuff link from one of the openings in the cuff 5 prior to assing the cuff over the hand.
A furt er ob ect of my invention is to provide a device of the type described which is extremely simple in construction and which is durable and eflicient for the purpose intended.
My invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which:
igure 1 is a side elevation of a cufl link;
Figure 2 is an end view of the device;
Figure 3 shows the cuff link extended;
Figure 4 is a sectional view of a modified form of the device, portions being shown in elevation;
Figure 5 is a side elevation of another mod- 20 ified form of the device, and
Figure 6 is a sectional view of one of the buttons used in the form of the device shown in Figure 5.
In carrying out my invention, I provide a cuff link having two buttons 1 and 2, connected together by a chain 3. (See Figure 3.) Each button has a projection 1, to which an end of a spring 5 is se cured. The spring normally assumes the position as shown in Figure .1 and encloses the chain 3. The chain is long enough to permit the buttons, land 2, to be moved away from each other and to extend the spring 5, as shown in Figure 3. The chain 3, however, prevents the buttons 1 and 2 from being moved too far apart.
From the foregoing description of the various parts of the device, the operation thereof may be readily understood.
50 The cufi link is secured to the shirt cuff moved toward each other permitted by t in the usual manner and in normal positionv abut one another. 7
the coils of, the sprin When removing the cufi spring "5 will expand permit this movement without the necessity ofremoving one of the buttons from the cufl'. "As already stated, the extent of the movementof thebuttons 1'and 2, away from each other, is limited by the chain 3. In Figure 4, I- show a modified form of the invention. A button 25 carries a sleeve 26, and a second button 27 has a shank 28 that is slidably received in the sleeve over the hand, the
.-26. A disc 29 closes the outer end of the sleeve 26 and has an opening 30 for receiving the shank 28. A head 31 is carried by the inner end of the shank 28 and this head is slidably received in the sleeve 26. The buttons 25 and 27 are by a spring -'32 that encircles the shank 28 and bears against the disc 29 and the head 31.
In the operation of this form of the device, the buttons 25 and 27 are secured to the cuff in the usual manner and the movement of the buttons away from each other, when removin the cuff from the hand, is e compressing of the spring 32. After the spring has been entirely compressed it limits further movement of the buttons 25 and 27 away from each other. This form of the device is not flexible whereas the form shown in Figures 1, 2 and 3 is flexible.
Still another form of the invention is shown in Figures 5 and 6. The buttons and 51 are of the shape shown in Figure 6 and each has a head 52 provided with an annular groove 53. A rubber sleeve 54 having an inner diameter smaller than the diameter of the groove 53, whenthe sleeve is in normal position, has its ends 55 and 56 forced over the heads 52 of the buttons and on to the annular grooves 53. The flange 57, formed by the head 52 and the groove 53, prevents the sleeve 54 from being readily removed from the button. This form of the device is flexible and the rubber sleeve 54 will give to such an extent as to permit the buttons 50 and 51 to be moved away from and will readily lat each other to allow the cufi to be passed over the hand. The flange 57 of each button is shown spaced for enough away from the button to dispose an end of the cufi between the flange and button.
Although I have shown and described three embodiments of my invention, it is to be underst'oodthat the sameis susceptibleof 7 various changes and I reserve the right to employ such changes as may come within the scope of the claimsnhereto attached.
I claim:
1. A cufi link comprising a pair of ter minal buttons having pro ectionsv thereon, and yielding means encircling the projectionsand belngrigi'dly secured .to the latter for. connecting the buttons together.
2-. A.cufl' link comprising a pair ofterminal' buttons having projections thereon, a spring, encircling the projections and being rigidly securedrto thelatter. for connecting the buttons together, and means for limiting the. movement of the buttons away from each other.
