PECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 273,241, dated February 27, 1883.
Application filed September 30, 1882. (N model.)
To all whom it may concern.- I
Be it known that I, JOHN MOORE, of Provi- I dence, in the State of Rhode Island, have invented an Improvement in Bracelets, of which the following is a specification. A
My invention relates to an improvement in the spring-clasp which serves to hold the hinged arms of the bracelet together when upon the wrist; and it consists in the combination of one ot theh'inged artns of the bracelet presided with a projecting catch-stud narrowed at its base, with the opposite hinged arm of the bracelet provided with a concealed spring-catch,cut in one piece from sheet-metal stock, and adapted for engagement with the catch-stud, as hereinafter fully set forth.
Figure 1 is an enlarged detail end view of the bracelet, with a portion of the outer plate broken away to show the construction of the clasp. Fig. 2 is an edge view of the bracelet opened. Fig.3 isaplan view, and Fig. 4 an edge view, of the spring-catch made in one piece.
In the accompanying drawings, A is the catch-stud, made to project from the center of the end of the bracelet-arm B, and is provided at its base with the notches a, a. Within the hollow of the bracelet-arm O, which is hinged to the arm B at the point D, is concealed the spring-catch E, cut from sheet metal, so as to form the two opposite spring-catches e e and the side arms,ff, which arms serve to steady the spring-catch E in its attachment to theinner surface of the edge-rim F of the bracelet and prevent it from becoming loosened from its fastening. The notches a a are made inclined or slightly rounding, so that a suitablystrong pull upon the arms of the bracelet will draw the stud A out of engagement with the catches e e of the spring-catch E, and in securing the bracelet to the wrist the stud A is forced between the opposite spring'catches e 0 until they arrive at the holding-notches a a, thus securing the arms of the bracelet to each other in a proper and satisfactory manner.
By the employment of my improved fastening for bracelets I am enabled to dispense with projecting pusher-knobs or similar disfiguratious of the bracelet at its opening-joint, and at the same time secure a simple, efiicient, and easily-operated clasp.
I claim as my invention- In abracelet, the combination of the hinged arm B and the fixed catch-stud A, provided with the notches a a, with the hinged arm 0 and the spring-catch E, provided with the opposite catches 6e and the armsff, tnade initial with the catches, and which serve to steady the spring-catch E in its attachment to .the
. bracelet-arm, substantially as described.
JO EN MOORE.
