JEWEL MOUNTING FLEXIBLE BRACELET Filed June 2, 1936 v 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 INVENTOR B IRLJIN CINER ATTO R N EY Patented Mar. 16, 1937 UNITED STATES FIE 3 Claims.
This invention relates to bracelet construction and particularly to flexible bracelets made of metal and more particularly to jewel mounting flexible bracelets. An object of the invention is to simplify and improve the metal construction going into the make-up of a contiguous series of metal jewel mounts strongly interlinked to permit sufficient flexibility for the bracelet to encircle the wrist of the wearer while, at the same 0 time, it shall have great strength relatively to the amount of metal employed in the construction. To this 'end I contemplate employing a jewel mount hinging link of substantially rectangular shape having noses extending from the ends of its long bars and to cause these rectangular links to embrace a tongue on each jewel mount and be locked in place by the noses entering perforations in side walls of the jewel mounts which in turn lock the noses against displacement by the simple expedient of pressing the lips of the under edges of the bracelet side walls together.
Further objects of the invention are to provide an improved jewel mounting metal bracelet.
More particularly it is an object to construct jewel mounts and links which may be assembled into a complete bracelet with ease and dispatch.
The above and further objects of the invention will better be understood by reference to the following specification describing embodiments shown in the drawings, to which embodiments the claims are directed for the purpose of illustration.
In the accompanying drawings Fig. 1 is a perspective View of two contiguous jewel mounts with a hinge link about to be assembled;
Fig. 2 is a fractional view in cross section taken cross wise of the bracelet and showing in dash lines the assembling of a hinge link;
Cir
40 Fig. 3 is a top plan view of a plurality of 'interlinked jewel mounts with jewels mounted but parts broken away;
Fig. 4 is aside elevation of the structure shown in Fig. 3 and partly in section; and j 45 Fig. 5 is a rear plan view of the same with parts in section and with parts broken away.
A number of jewel mounts A preferably of rectangular open ended box like shape mount jewels B and are linked together by rectangular 50 links C to form a bracelet D. This bracelet must have free flexibility to encircle the wrist of the wearer; that is so that its ends may move downwardly as viewed in Fig. 3; that is, downwardly relatively to the plane of the paper. 55 Each box like jewel mount A provides grip flanges l and 2 and seating flanges 3 and i for the jewels B which may be mounted securely against movement in any direction by pressing flanges l and 2 towards each other.
The wrist side of the bracelet is formed to pro- 5 vide jewel mount hinging; for example, the cross side walls 5 and 6 have cut outs i and 8 leaving tongues 9 and Ill. The marginal walls of the mounts A, that is the walls along the lengthwise edges of the bracelet are provided with perforal0 tions which may be slots H and i2 and have their marginal lips I3 and I l flared outwardly at the locality of the cut cuts 1 and S and slots l I and I2.
Each rectangular link piece C has cross con- 5 necting end bars I l and it which are themselves cross connected by the side bars l9 and 29. symmetrically positioned noses 2i and 22 opposite each other and at corresponding ends of end bar I! are provided, as well as symmetrical 20 noses 23 and 26 at the opposite ends of end bar To assemble the chain, two jewel mounts A are arranged upside down, as in Fig. 1, and a rectangular link piece C upside down is posl- 25 tioned also as shown in Fig. 1, whereupon it is pressed home with the noses 2!, 22, and 23, 24 snapping past the lips l3 and i l into the slots ll and I2, which may be regarded as hinging perforations. The side bars Iii and 2H cross 30 over in the contiguous cut outs l and 8 so that the tongues 9 and i0 project up inwardly within the cross bars l1 and I8.
Any number of jewel mounts and hinge pieces may thus be assembled one after the other with the jewel mounts resting top face down on a table or ledge. In this progressive assembling there is no tendency for the hinge pieces to drop out of place. When sufflcient jewel mounts have 4 been assembled, it is merely necessary to apply suitable tools to press and bend towards each other the outwardly flaring lips or ears i3 and i4 whereupon all the links C are locked in place so that they have dual functioning in holding the jewel mounts together. One holding function is the engagement of the tongues 9 and I0 within the hinge pieces and the other is the swivelled engagement of the noses 2H, 22, 23 and M in the slots H and i2. The strength of this assemblage is even greater than its simplicity.
What I claim and desire to secure by United States Letters Patent is: 1
1. In jewel mounting flexible bracelet construction, a plurality of four sided metallic mounts; a one piece rectangular bridge link for hinge piece as an entirety embracing two of said tongues whereby said mounts are doubly interlinked by a single hinge piece.
3. As an intermediate article of manufacture a jewel mount in rectangular open top and bottom end box like form having two oppositely formed cut-outs in each back edge of two parallel walls and having perforations in the other two opposite walls extending adjacent to the inner faces of said first mentioned walls; said last two mentioned walls being outwardly flared at the locality of said cut-outs to permit the ready assemblage of nose bearing links.
