This invention-relates to trimmings such pendant swivelled thereto to prevent the as knobs and pendants to be applied to furnipendant from rattling. 1 ture and more particularly to such'a fitting A better understanding of this invention as will eliminate the necessity of screws or will behad from the detailed description bolts for securing them to the furniture. given in connection with the drawing, in 7 It has been the practice heretofore to sewhich: cure trimmings of this nature-to the fronts Fig. l is a front elevationof a knob conor other parts of furniture by means of structed in accordance with this invention. screws or bolts; Securing means of this Fig. 2 1sa transverse section through ap- 10 character, however, are prone to become loose proximately the center of the knob shown during use due to partial turning movements in F g; 1.

so is also employed between the post and any terminates in a pair of prongs 4 and a cupshaped anvil 7 for receiving and deflecting prongs 4. The usual escutcheon plate 6 is shown secured to the inner end of the knob.
The projecting end of the post is adapted to be received in the cup or sleeve-like anvil member 7 seated in a previously formed recess in the furniture. One end of the anvil is flanged outwardly as at 8, the latter flange having a pair of prongs 9 turned inwardly. The side wallof the cup is slotted as at 11 and the bottom thereof is concaved inwardly as at 12 to provide a wedge-like anvil portion which engages prongs 4, when the stem is forced inwardly, to spread the prongs outwardly through slots 11 and into the side walls of the recess formed in the furniture to receive the anvil as is clearly shown in Fig. 5. The flange 8 serves as a limiting. means to prevent the anvil from receding into the wood regardless of how soft the wood may be, and the inturned prongs 9 secure the anvil Within the recess in the furniture.
In Figs. 8 and 9, there is illustrated a ring type of trim comprising a plate 13 to which is pivotally secured a ring 14. The tubular post member 16 is secured to the other face of the plate and terminates in a pair of prongs 17 the post and prongs being similar to post 2 and prongs 4'previously described. This type of fitting is secured to the furniture in a manner similar to that previously described and which will not be repeated here.
In Figs. 10 to 12, there is illustrated a pendant type trim comprising a post or stem 18 to which is pivotally attached a pendant or hand grip l9 and the usual escutcheon plate 21. The post or stem portion is tubular, preferably being constructed of a single piece of sheet metal rolled to form a tubular stem one end of which terminates in a tongue bent upon itself to form a swivel loop or eye 22. The stem is further formedwith a pair of lugs or stops 2?) projecting laterally from its outer end and which serve to limit the swinging movement of the pendant to prevent the same from coming in contact with the front face of thexfurniture. The inner end of the tubular stem -or post which is adapted'to be received in a recess in the furniture terminates in a pair of prongs 24 adapted to be deflected into the furniture in the manner previously described by the use of an anvil 7.
In order .to prevent the pendant 19 from rattling upon its pivot when attached to a 1)iece--'of. -fiirniti1re subject. to vibration, a
. In Fig. 14 there is illustrated a tool which is particularly well adapted for use inattaching the foregoing furniture trimmings The slot is of sufficient width to receive the eye 22 of the stem by means of which the stem may be driven into interlocking engagement with the anvil Without spreading the eye. The shank is further provided with another bore perpendicular to the shank and to set 32.. A punch 38 is secured in this latter bore, the punchbeing provided with a head 39 and a stem 41 having'a-pin 42 therethrough. The stem 41 and pin 42 are of proper size to be received in the cup-shaped anvil. The pin is also arranged parallel with the handle for reasons which will appear. It is obvious that the anvil may be set over the pin 41 with pin 42 extending, through slots 11 and the anvil driven into the recess in the furniture by applying a hammer to the head 39. Due to .the fact that pin 42 is parallel to the handle 29, the cup may be accurately aligned with the slots vertical thus insuring proper alignment of the pendant.
From the above description it follows that there'is provided a trimming for furniture which may be rigidly and permanently secured to the furniture in such a mannerto preclude removal therefrom and by means which do not detract from the ornamentation of the furniturenor projection through portions of the furniture. It is also apparent that-in view of the fact that no screws or bolts are necessary the danger of splitting the furniture is eliminated. The formation of the anvil prevents the anvil fromsinking into even relatively soft Wood when the stem is driven thereagalinst. Furthermore, the slotted anvil prevents any turning of the stem which might cause looseness and in combination with a particular tool for setting the same in place assures perfect alignment of the pendant and furthermore the slots prevent turning of the stem relatively to the anvil which further assures tightness of the trim. The trim can be attached to practically any thickness of furniture, it merely being necessary to provide a recess of sulficient depth to receive the anvil.
It is obvious that the illustrated form of this invention is only one embodiment thereof and that many changes may be made in the structural details without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the claims.
I claim: v
1.' A trimming for furniture comprising a stem adapted to enter a recess formed in the furniture, a cup-shaped anvil having an inclined bottom adapted to be received in said recess and shaped to deflect a portion of said stem into the side walls of the recess upon forcing the stem into said recess in engagement With said anvil, and means for limit ing the inward movement of said anvil into the furniture.
2. A trimming for furniture comprising a stem adapted to enter a recess formed in the furniture and a cup-shaped anvil having an inclined bottom adapted to be received in said recess and shaped to deflect a portion of said stem into the side walls of the recess upon forcing the stem into said recess against said anvil, said anvil having an opening therethrough to permit passage of the deflected portion of the stem.
3. A trimming for furniture comprising a stem adapted to enter a recess formed in the furniture and a flanged cup-shaped anvil, the flange terminating in external prongs directed toward the bottom of the anvil, said anvil'having deflecting portions for engaging said stem and directing portions into the side walls of the recess upon forcing the stem into said recess into engagement with said anvil.
