AUTOGRAM Filed Oct. 28, 1941 ATTOR N EYS Patented July 7, 1942 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE AUTOGRAM `iviichaei Warner, chicago, 11i.
Application October 28, 1941, Serial No. 416,889
4 Claims. (01. lMln-140) This invention relates to auto-grams and has for an object to provide a decorative identifying automobile accessory displaying the owners initials on the side of the hood, radiator, or other desired part of the automobile.
A further object is to provide a device of this character in which the initials are displayed on respective colored or uncolored jewels of the type used on roadway signs and other places, the jewels being held in spring clips in openings in the front of a easing, through which openings when the jewels are removed, the securing means of the casing may be removed and applied by a tool inserted through the openings.
A further object is to provide a device of this character which will be formed of a few strong, simple and durable parts, which will be inexpensive to manufacture, and which will not easily get out of order.
With the above and other objects in view, the invention consists of certain novel details of construction `and combinations of parts hereinafter fully described and claimed, it being understood that various modifications may be resorted to within the scope of the `appended claims Without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention.
In the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification:
Figure 1 is a front elevation -of an autogram constructed in accordance with the invention.
Figure 2 is 4a longitudinal sectional view of the autogram taken on the line 2-2 of Figure 1, showing one of the jewels removed.
Figure 3 is a cross sectional view of the autogram taken on the line 3-3 of Figure 1.
Figure 4 is a plan view of one of the initial displaying jewels showing the attaching spring clips therefor.
Figure 5 is a Arear elevation of the device;
Figure 6 is ya rear elevation of one of the initial displaying jewels.
Figure 7 is a rear elevation of a jewel of square contour instead of circular.
Figure 8 is a front elevation of a modified form of the autogrann showing the same in the shape of a shield.
Figure 9 is a front elevation of another modified form of the autogram, showing the same in the shape of a triangle having space for a manufacturers identifying mark below the jewels.
Referring now to the drawing in which like characters of reference designate similar parts in the various Views, autogram comprises an elongated rectangular casing having its front wall I0,
end walls I I, and top and bottom walls I2 and I3, formed integrally and detachably connected to its rear wall or attaching .plate I4. The end, top
and bottom walls of the casing are inclined and frame 20 adapted to overlap the front face ofV the front wall II). A plurality of reversely curved spring clips 2I are secured to the frame :and are adapted to be inserted through the openings I8 and spring over the rear face of the front wall I0, as best shown in Figures 2 and 3 to removably secure the jewels to the casing.
The rear wall or securing plate I4 is provided with openings 22 to receive screws 23 which may be eng-aged in a part 24 of the automobile, such as a door, hood, radiator, or other desired part of the automobile. The openings 22 are arranged directly in rear of the jewel receiving openings I 8 so that when a jewel is removed, the opening I8 will expose the openings 22 so that a tool may be inserted for applying fand removing the screws 23.
Each jewel may be circular, as shown in Figure 6, or may be square in contour, as shown in Figure 7, in the latter case, of course, the -peripheral frame 24 being square and the spring clips 25 being disposed opposite each other similar to the spring clips of the circular type of jewel.
The frame, instead of being rectangular in contour may be a shield in contour, as shown at 26 in Figure 8, and the jewels 2I may be arranged in a vertical row on the longitudinal center line of the front wall of the autogram.
Still another modification is shown in Figure 9, in which the frame 28 is triangular in form yand is provided with a rectangular row of jewels` 29 in the front wall extending across the wide end of the frame so that a triangular space 38 remains below the row of jewels to display the automobile manufacturers embossing or identifying emblem or insignia.
From the above description it is thought that the construction and operation of the invention will be fully understood without further explanation.
What is claimed is:
1. An autogram comprising a casing having its front, end, top and bottom walls formed integrally, the end, top and bottom walls being inclined and provided at their rear edges with anges, a rear Wall having its edges clamped between said inclined walls and said flanges to sefeure the parts of the casing in assembled relation, the front wal1 being provided with openings, initialed jewels in said opening secured to the front wall by spring clips engaged over the rear face of the front wall, there being openings in the rear wall for the passage of securing elements located opposite the openings in the front wall to permit the casing to be secured in place by a tool inserted through the front wall openings to engage the securing elements.
2. The structure as of 'claim 1 and in which said spring clips are carried by a frame surrounding each jewel and overlapping the outer face of the -front wall.
3. An autogram, comprising a rectangular casing formed of metal with the front wall connected to the rear wall by inclined end and side walls, the front wall being provided with openings, initialed jewels in said openings secured to the front Wall by spring clips engaging over` the rear face thereof, the rear wall having openings for the passage of securing elements opposite the openings in the front wall to permit the casing to be secured in place by a tool inserted through the front wall openings to engage the securing elements.
4. An autogram, comprising a rectangular cas ing, the front wall being provided with openings, initialed jewels in said openings secured to the front wall by spring clips engaging over the rear face thereof, the rear wall of the casing provided with openings opposite the openings in the front wall for the passage of securing elements therethrough, whereby a tool may be inserted through the openings in the front wall to engage the securing elements passing through the openings in the rear wall.
