ROME B. RICHMOND, OF MAOOX, ILLINOIS.
PENDANT-RING FOR WATCHES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 289,141, dated November 27,1883.
Application filed March 30, 1883. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern/.-
Be it known that I, ROME B. RICHMOND, of Macon, county of Macon, Illinois, have invented a new and useful Improvement in' VVatch-Bows, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
The obj ect of my invention is to provide certain new and useful improvements in bows for holding them on the pendant.
The invention consists in a watch-case or locket pendant provided with a hook above or below the bow-aperture on each side, combined with a bow having a semicircular or eccentric transverse ridge a short distance from each end. The ends of the how are passed into the bowapertures in the pendant while the bow hangs I downward, and when the bow is swung upward the ridges pass in between the sides of the pendant and the hooks and hold the bow in place.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
Figure l is a front elevation of a watch-case pendant provided with inyimprovement. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional elevation of the same. Fig. 3 is a front elevation of a modification of the same. Fig. 4 is a side elevation of the same, showing a modification of the hook. Fig. 5 is a cross-sectional elevation of the same on the line a; 00, Fig. 3. Fig. 6 is a cross-sectional elevation of the bow, showing it detached. Fig. 7 is a front elevation of the bow constructed as shown in Figs. 1 and 2. Fig. 8 is a cross-sectional elevation of the same on the line y y, Fig: 7.
The pendant A of the watchcase is provided at each side and below the apertures for the ends of the bow B with an upwardly-projecting hook-prong, O, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2; or, in place of the upwardly-projecting hookprongs, it is provided with downwardly-projecting hook-prongs D above the apertures for the ends of the bow. The bow B is provided at short distances from each end with a semi-annular or eccentric transverse ridge, E, which projects either from the outer or inner circular edge of the bow. The crown F and the pendant A can be of any desired suitable construction. The bowB is held inclined downward from the pendant, as shown in Fig. 4, and the ends of the same are drawn apart and released when the ends are opposite the apertures in the pendant. The spring of the bow then presses the ends of the bow into the apertures of the pendant. If the pendant is swung upward, the ridges E pass into the spaces between the hooks and the pendant and hold the bow in place, and prevent the ends from leaving the apertures in the pendant. The bow can only be removed while hanging down, as shown in Fig. l. The ends of the hooks can be rounded or square. The hooks may be closed at the sides, or closed and only open on top. No screw is required to hold the bow in place, and the construction is simple and durable.
The improvement can be applied on loclrets, &c., as well as on watch-cases.
Having thus described my invention. I claim as newand desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. The combination, with a watch-case or locket pendant having hooks on the sides, of a bow provided with transverse ridges a short distance from each end, substantially as herein shown and described, and for the purpose set forth.
2. The combination, with a watch-case or locket pendant having a hook above orbelow the bow-aperture on each side, of a bow having a semi-annular or eccentric transverse ridge a short distance from each end, substantially as herein shown and described, and for the purpose set forth.
