7 Claims.
The present invention relates to an article of jewelry and more particularly to a combination bar-pin and clip-brooch.
One object of the present invention is to provide an article of the type indicated comprising a plurality of ornaments adapted to be interchangeably mounted on either a bar-pin or ahinged clip.
Another object of the invention is to provide interchangeable ornaments adapted to be attached to the supporting member of a bar-pin or a hinged clip and yieldingly latched in posi tion thereon.
Another object of the invention is to provide an article of the type indicated in which interengaging parts of the ornament and bar-pin or clip may be economically manufactured as sheetmetal stampings.
Another object of the invention is to provide an article of the type indicated having a simple and compact structure of highly ornamental appearance, and one in which the ornaments are adapted to be easily and quickly assembled on either the bar-pin or clip.
Further objects of the invention are set forth in the following specification which describes a preferred form of construction of the article, by way of example, as illustrated by the accompanying drawing. In the drawing:
Fig. 1 is a plan view of the bar-pin embodying a pair of ornaments mounted in juxtaposition on a supporting member;
Fig. 2 is a rear view of the bar-pin showing the means for attaching the ornaments to the supporting member;
Fig. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view on line 3-3 of Fig. 2 showing the interengaging means for yieldingly holding the ornaments against movement longitudinally of the supporting member;
Fig. 4 is a longitudinal sectional view similar to Fig. 3 showing the yielding detent at the end of the supporting member seated in a recess in the ornament to aline the parts prior to sliding the ornament into position;
Fig. 5 is a transverse sectional view on line 5-5 of Fig. 2 showing the spaced channels on the ornament embracing the sides of the supporting member;
Fig. 6 is a perspective view of the bar-pin and one of the ornaments in disassembled alined relationship;
Fig. 7 a perspective view of a modified form of supporting member for mounting a plurality of ornaments;
Fig. 8 is a perspective view of a clip-brooch with an interchangeable ornament mounted thereon; and
Fig. 9 is a transverse sectional View of the clipbrooch showing the ornament positioned on one of the leaves of the clip'prior to sliding it into position thereon.
Referring to the drawing, the bar-pin is herein illustrated as comprising an ornament-supporting member in the form of a flat plate I!) havingears I l at one end for hingedly mounting a pinstem I2 and a keeper 13 at its opposite end provided with a safety catch 14. The plate Hl'is preferably stamped from sheet-metal stock to form a widened central portion 15 and narrower rectangular wings l6 extending therefrom with shoulders I! therebetween. During the stamping operation intermediate portions of the plate are preferably punched out or perforated to lighten its weight and save stock. The end perforations l8 are'of horseshoe shape to provide longitudinally-extending tongues 19. The ends of the tongues I9 are indented during the stamping operation, or by a separate operation, to form shallow cavities or recesses on one side and ballshaped protuberances 20 on the opposite side which act as detents for the ornaments applied slide over the wings I 6 of the supporting member ID of the bar-pin. The guideway may be formed by slotting the material of the ornament or in any other suitable manner; being herein illustrated as comprising a plate 26 soldered or otherwise attached to the back of the ornament. The plate 26 has side extensions folded around to form spaced channels 21 which terminate short of one end of the plate to provide a narrower extension or lip 28. An elongated recess 29 is formed in the extending lip 28 and a circular recess 30 provided at the opposite end of the plate 26 for seating the detent 20 on the supporting member IQ of the pin. The elongated recess 29 has an inclined or sloping bottom, as shown in Fig. 6, for a purpose as later explained.
The ornament 24 may be mounted on one of the wings l6 of the supporting member ID of the bar-pin by first placing the detent 20 on the resilient tongue IS in the recess 29 on the plate 26 as illustrated in Fig. 4. The opposite sides of the wings I6 will then be alined with the grooves in the channels 21 so that the ornament may be bodily slid longitudinally of the mem her or plate I 0. During this relative sliding movement of the parts the resilient tongue I9 yields to allow its detent protuberance 20 to ride up the incline in the bottom of the recess 29 as the edges of the member II] are engaged in the grooves of the channels 21. In this manner the detent 20 guides the member ID into register with the grooves and finally the ends of the channels 21 engage the shoulders IT as the detent 20 snaps into the recess 3|! in the plate 29. The detent 20 and recess 30 thus form interengaging means for yieldingly latching the ornament against movement longitudinally of the bar-pin.
'Another ornament 240i the same type may be slid over the opposite wing I6 of the member Ill in the manner as explained and into juxtaposition with respect to the first ornament to form an assembled brooch as illustrated in Fig. 1.
' The central crossbar 2| of the member ID then covers the joint between the abutting edges of from the bar-pin by merely sliding it outward- 'ly longitudinally of the wing I6 on which it is mounted. At the beginning of the outward movement of the ornament the resilient tongue I9 of the member ID yieldsto permit therounded detent 20 to slide out of the recess 30 and then trated'in Fig. 7 for, mounting a cluster of ornaments described above.
ments. The plate 35 of this form of the article has a square central portion 36 with wings 39 extending at right-angles to each other to form Each of the'wings has a horseshoe a cross. shaped slot I8 adjacent its end, as explained with respect to the plate II), to form a resilient tongue I9 and the plate is adapted to mount ornaments a of any suitable contour preferably having pointed ends which dovetail, together "as indicated in Fig. 7.
' Figs. 8 and 9 illustrate a clip 40 which is adapted to mount one of the interchangeable orna- The clip 40 is of usual construction comprising a pair of leaves 4| and 42 hinged together by the pivot-pin 43. The leaf 4| is provided with projecting prongs 44 for gripping an article of clothing and a springfinger 45 for resiliently holding it in either open or closed position with respect to the leaf 42. The leaf 42 is of a construction similar to the Wings I6 of the supporting member I0 of the bar-pin previously described, having a resilient tongue I9 provided with a convex'detent 20 at its-end. V
When it is desired to apply one of the ornaments 24 to the clip-brooch it is detached from the plate ID of the bar-pin and mounted on the leaf 42 of the clip in the manner as previously explained. To this end the detent 2 0 at the end of the resilient tongue I9 on the leaf 42 of the clip is placed in the recess 29 in the plate 26 of the ornament to aline'the side edges of the leaf with the grooves formed by the channels 21. The
ornament is then slid longitudinally of, the leaf 42 until the detent 2|) snaps into the recess 33 to yieldingly hold the ornament in place on the clip. With the leaf 4| in the position illustrated in full lines in Fig. 9 the clip may be attached to an article of clothing by pressing the two leaves together in the manner indicated by dash lines. The spring-finger 45 acting against a suitable abutment on the hinge causes the leaf 4| to snap into closed position with respect to the leaf 42 to grip the prongs 44 against the article of clothing.
A preferred form of the article having now been described in detail it will be understood that Various modifications'may be made in the structure and arrangement of its parts within the scope of the invention. For example, the channeled plate may be on the bar-pin or clip for cooperation with a rectangular plate on the ornament, and the resilient latching tongue may be on the ornament for cooperation with a recess in the bar-pin or clip. Further, the resilient tongue may be a separate element attached to the plate instead of being integrally formed as illustrated. V
' It will now be observed from the foregoing that the invention provides a novel form of combined bar-pin and clip-brooch in which a single or a plurality of ornaments may be used with either a bar-pin or a clip. It will also be observed that the novel construction of the ornament provides for its convenient attachment to and detachment from the supporting member on the barpin or clip. Still further, it will be observed that the novel combination brooch provides for slidably mounting the interchangeable ornaments on either a bar-pin or a clip and yieldingly holding the ornaments from movement relatively thereof.
While the invention is herein described and illustrated as embodied in a preferred form of construction, it is to be understood that modifications may be made in the design and arrangement of its parts Without'departing from thespirit or scopeof the invention. ,lTherefore, without limiting myself in this respect, I claim: 1.
