Description
Patented .lan. 19, 1933 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE I). KRAMER, OF NEXV YORK, N. Y.
LADY S HATCH Application filed March 27, 1931. Serial No. 525,703.
This invention relates to timepiece ornaments anc. my improvement is directed to a ladys watch ha ng a novel form of case with means of attachment to wearing apparel,
upon the breast, characterized by the face of the watch being angled in such manner that,
' when positioned, the wearer may read the i and 1 ornamentation.
Fig. 6 is a horizontal section, on the line 6--6 of Fig. 5.
In said views let 1 indicate a base, here shown plain, but which may bear any desired This base is intended to be positioned vertically upon the breast of the wearer and is provided at its rear with apparel engaging means. A watch case is imposed up i the front of plate 1, said watch i being triangular in form, having the forwardly downward inclined wall 2, the forward y upward inclined wall 3, and the vertical sidewalls 1. Tie watch. face lies in a plane that is parallel. with the inclined wall 2, so that when the device is in position upon the wearers breast the time can be easily read upon. a slight inclination of the wearers head.
As will be noted in Figs. 1 and 2 the time indications upon the watch face or dial are oriented with the numeral 12 disposed in the lowermost position, whereby the wearer upon glancing downwardly enabled to read the time though a watch with its time indications conventionally disposed was held 0pposedly, to the vision, in the usual manner.
The crown of the winding stem is indicated at 6, u pen the inclined wall 3, near the apex 7 of the triangle formed by walls 2, 3.
It? will be noted that the wall 2 is inclined at an angle of with respect to the surface of base 1, this angle affording full face vision Of the dial when the wearers head is slightly inclined, but obviously this degree of inclination may belvaried so long as the angle I employed is such as will permit the user to read the time by looking downwardly without being required to shift the position of the watch.
Heretofore breast worn watches exposed their dialsoutwardly and the wearer, to read the time, must take-the watch by handand turn it toward her eyes, a proceeding that requires the use of suspensory means, andprevents the employment of fixed means of-at- 'tachment.
By the aid of my improvement a watch can be securely fastened to the apparel, in the manner ofa brooch, and yet will always be conveniently readable'by the wearer,.without other action than that of looking downwardly.
As means for attaching the device to an art-icle of wearing apparel, I may provide a pair of wings 7, each having a pivot 8 mounted in lugs 9 fixed to the rear surface of base 1, said pivots being in parallel relatiomand carrying, at adjacent ends, the spur wheels 10. These spur wheels, while closely adjacent, are
not in mesh, and the wings 7 may be folded together and swung apart. When foldedtogether the wings 7 may be entered through an eyelet or button hole provided in agarment, andthen may be swung out to the extended position shown in Fig.3, tioning the device. Then a pin 11 may be inserted betweenopposed spurs of thee-djacent wheels 10 to thereby lock-the Wingsin their extended position, thus preventing the accidental or unwarranted removal of the device. The pin '11, which has a head 12, is slidable through :1. lug 13 that is extended from the back of plate 1, said pin having a collar 14, and a spring 15, lying between lug 13 and collar 14, said spring normally urging the pin into its locking position between spurs of the wheels 10.
To remove the device the pin 11 is first released and then the wings will fold to- 10 gether in the act of withdrawal.
thus posi- 35 Variations within the spirit and scope of 1 my invention are equally comprehended by the foregoing disclosure. 7
I claim:
1. As a new article of manufacture a timepiece comprising a base, adapted to be imposed vertically upon the wearers person, and a watch case projecting forwardly from said base, said watch case forming a right 10 angled triangle with the base as its hypotenuse, the upper wall of said triangle containing the dial and lying at a forwardly downward angle, the time indications on said dial being arranged for reading from above and the lower wall carrying the stem and crown.
2. As a new article of manufacture a time- "piece comprising a base, adapted to be imposed vertically upon'the wearers person,
, and a watch case projecting forwardly from said base, said watch case forming a right angled triangle with the base as its hypotenuse, the upper wall of said triangle containing the dial and lying at a forwardly downward angle, the time indications on said dial being arranged for reading from above and the lower Wall carrying the stem and crown, said base having rearward means for engagement with a garment.
3. As a new article of manufacture a time- 'piece comprising a base, adapted to be imposed vertically upon the wearers person, and a watch case projecting'forwardly from said base, said watch case forming a'right angled triangle with the base as its hypotenuse, the
" upper wall of said triangle containing the dial and lying at a forwardly downward angle, the time indications on said dial being oriented to dispose the numeral 12 in the lowermost position thereon, and the lower wall carrying the stem and crown.
1. As a new article of manufacture a timepiece comprising a base, adapted to be im- 7 posed'vertically upon the wearers person, and a watch case projecting forwardly from said base, said watch case forming a rightangled triangle with the base as its hypotenuse, the upper wall of said triangle containing the dial and lying at a forwardly downward angle, the time indications on said dial being oriented to dispose the numeral 12 in the lowermost position thereon, and the lower wall carrying the stem and crown, said base having rearward means for engagement with a garment. r
