POCKET ORNAMENT Filed May 24', 1938 Fred fir/gap 62290 7;
INVENTOR ATTORNEYS Patented Nov. 15, 1938 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 7 Claims.
My invention relates to pocket decoration and includes among its objects and advantages the provision of a novel ornament in the nature of a pocket handkerchief of the form usually carried in the breast pocket of the coat.
In the accompanying drawing:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a portion of a coat showing my invention applied to the breast pocket thereof;
Fig. 2 is an elevational view of the ornament with certain parts broken away for the sake of clearness;
Fig. 3 is an enlarged sectional View along the line 33 of Fig. 2;
Fig. 4 is a perspective view showing some of the parts separated for the purpose of illustration;
Fig. 5 is an elevational view of another form with a portion removed for the sake of clearness; and i Fig. 6 is an enlarged sectional view along the line B--6 of Fig. 5.
In the embodiment selected to illustrate my invention, the ornament comprises a plurality of wings I0, I2 and I4 of progressively shorter proportions. Each wing includes converging edges I6 and I8 intersecting to provide points 28 so that when the wings are assembled according to Fig. 2, they will take the form of a handkerchief folded to be carried in the pocket 22.
Referring to Fig. 3, the wings I0, I2 and I4 include stiffening elements 24, 26 and 28, respectively, each of which is covered on its outer face with suitable cloth or other finishing material 30. In each wing the cloth is folded back upon its respective stiffening element, as at 32 in Fig. 4, and attached thereto by a suitable cement or glue. Stifiening element 24 is slotted at 34 to align with a similar slot 36 in the stiffening element 26. A pin 38 extends through the slots 34 and 36 and through an opening 48 in the stiffening element 28. One end of the pin 38 carries a head 42 located between the cloth 30 and the stiffening element 24. On the opposite endof the pin 38 I secure a washer 44 which lies between the stiffening element 28 and a cover 46 which is adhesively secured to the cloth areas 32 on the element 28.
Fig. 4 illustrates the stiffening element 26 as being provided with a U-shaped spring 68. The bight 62 of the spring lies adjacent the back face 5 of the stiffening element and the legs of the spring are passed through openings 64 in the element and bent to extend downwardly adjacent the cloth 38 on that element. The lower ends of the legs are bent to provide loops 68 and 68 through which the pins 38 and 52, respectively, are inserted. Loops 66 and 68 normally lie at the inner ends of the slots 38 and 48.
In operation, the spring is effective on the pins 38 and 52 for holding the wings I0, I2 and I4 in the. positions of Figs. 2 and 3. Fig. 3 illustrates the pins 38 and 52 as lying at the inner ends of the slots 36 and 48 of the stiffening element! 26. The width of the ornament when viewed according to Fig. 2 may be shortened by applying pressure against the outer ends of the wings I0 and I4. When pressed in this manner, the legs of the spring 60 will be flexed toward each other. Such flexing is brought about because of the snug fitting relation between the pin 38 and the opening 40 and between the pin 52 and the opening 54. Slots 34 and 35 and 48 and 50 accommodate relative movement of the pins 38 and 52 as the spring is being flexed.
With the wings III, I2 and I4 in the normal position of Fig. 2, the width of the unit is considerably wider than the width of a normal pocket 22. In application, the width of the ornament is narrowed by applying pressure to the wings I8 and I4, and the ornament is then inserted in the pocket 22. The edges of the wings I0 and I4 are notched at III to provide irregularities which effectively hold the ornament in place when pressed against the limits of the pocket 22. When the ornament is inserted according to Fig. l, the tapered areas of the wings I0, I2 and I4 present a neat and orderly appearance in the form of a handkerchief folded for decorating purposes. After insertion, the spring 60 urges the wings apart to press them firmly against the limits of the pocket 22. The pressure of the spring is such as to effectively hold the ornament in position so as to be restrained from accidental displacement.
Figs. 5 and 6 illustrate a slightly different 50 form of ornament made up of wings I2 and 14. These wings are covered in the same manner as the wings previously described and include similar stifiening elements 16 and I8. The pin passes through an opening 82 in 55 the element 16 and through a slot 84 in the element 18. Pin 86 passes through an opening 88 in the stiffening element 18 and through a slot 90 in the stifiening element 16. A U-shaped spring 92 has its ends looped at 84 for connection with the pins 80 and 86 and is positioned between the two wings. It will thus be seen that pressure applied to the ends of the wings l2 and 14 will flex the spring outwardly and that when the wings are released, the spring will urge the wings outwardly for increasing the width of the ornament, thus operating in the same manner as the ornament previously described.
Without further elaboration, the foregoing will so fully explain my invention that others may, by applying current knowledge, readily adapt the same for use under various conditions of service.
I claim:
1. A pocket ornament comprising a plurality of wings movably related, means for holding the wings in assembled relation, and tensioning means for urging the wings into holding relation with the walls of a pocket.
2 A pocket ornament comprising a plurality of wings arranged partly in overlapping relation,

A pocket ornament comprising three wings arranged partly in overlapping relation, one wing including a slot and an opening, the second wing including a pair of slots, the third wing includinga slot and an opening, a pin passing through the slot in the first wing one ofthe slots in the second wing and the opening in the third wing,
a pin passing through the opening in the first wing through the other slot in the second wing and through the slot in the third wing, and spring means cooperable with said pins for urging two of the wings into pressure relation with the walls of a pocket.
5. A pocket ornament comprising a pair of wings arranged partly in overlapping relation, one wing including a slot and an opening, the other wing including an opening and a slot, a pin passing through the slot in the first wing and through the opening in the second wing, a pin passing through the opening in the first wing and through the slot in the second wing, and spring means cooperable with said pins for urging the wings into pressure relation with the Walls of a pocket.
6. A pocket ornament comprising three wings arranged partly in overlapping relation, one wing including a slot and an opening, the second Wing including a pair of slots, the third wing including a slot and an opening, a pin passing through the slot in the first wing one of the slots in the second wing and the opening in the third wing, a pin passing through the opening in the first wing through the other slot in the second wing and through the slot in the third wing, and spring means cooperable with said pins for urging two of the wings into pressure relation with the walls of a pocket, some of said wings having irregularities for engaging the walls of the pocket.
7. A pocket ornament comprising a pair of wings arranged partly in overlapping relation, one wing including a slot and an opening, the
other wing including an opening and a slot, a
pin passinglthrough the slot in the first wing and through the opening in the second wing, a pin passing through the opening in the first wing and through the slot in the second wing, and spring means cooperable with said pins for urging the wings into pressure relation with the walls of a pocket, said wings having irregularities for engaging the walls of the pocket.
