UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
MARVIN G. STONE, OF FALLS CHURCH, VIRGINIA.
COMBINED FINGER-RING AND TOOTH-PICK.
SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 272,985, dated February 27, 1883. Application filed December 17, 1881. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, MARVIN O. STONE, a citizen of the UnitedState-s, residing at Falls Church, in the county of Fairfax and State of Virginia, have invented a new and useful Combined Finger-Ring and Tooth-Pick, of which the following is a specification.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the combined finger-ring and tooth-pick with thetoothpickreleased from its sheath and ready for use. Fig. 2 is a sectional view ofthe same when the tooth-pick is restored to its sheath. Fig. 3 is v a modification of the same, in which the toothpick is separable, the hollow ring being utilized as a sheath for it.
Similar letters of reference refer to similar parts throughout the different views..
In Fig. l, A is'the tooth-pick,which is made of some elastic or springy material, so that when withdrawn from its circular sheath it will instantly resume its'originalhorizontal position. Any suitable substance may he used; but I prefer to use spring gold. The same material could well be employed for the ring B itself, which is also a sheath, or contains a hollow sheathportion, U.
It will be observed that in order to release the tooth'pick from its sheath, the ring itself must be sprung apart at its joint, and the same will be necessary when the tooth-pick is re stored to its sheath. For this reason the ring itself, as well as the tooth-pick, must be made of elastic material.
Fig. 3, which is a modification of my invention, shows the tooth-pick A as separable from the ring. In this case the tooth-pick should still be made of elastic material, inorder that it may be adapted to its circular sheath, as in the former case. It may also have astone or setting at its base, which, when the tooth-pick is inserted to its full extent, becomes the setting of the ring itself. In this case the ring need not be of elastic material, but merely hol low, to afford a receptacle for the tooth-pick.
In reference to the utility of my invention, I would say that I believe this method of carrying a tooth-pick is more convenient than any other, because the tooth-pick is always on hand when wanted, and the owner does not have tohunt for it in the pocket, and run the risk of having it slipped-under the finger-nail. Moreover, it is not easily lost or mislaid, and it serves the purpose of an ornament when not in use.
I have illustrated my invention as a toothpick; but I do not limit myself to that, as I may substitute some other article, like an earspoon or surgeons lance.
Having fully described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s-
1. A finger-ring provided with a tooth-pick, as and for the purpose specified.
2. Afinger-ring having a tooth-pick formed and connected therewith, substantially as shown and described.
3. A finger-ring provided with a tooth-pick of spring material, as shown and described.
