SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 293,418, dated February 12, 1884.
l Appnemion fren .my 13,1883. (No mndeii y had to the accompanying drawings, forming aA part of this specification.
In chain-bracelets one end of the chain has been heretofore secured to the slide or ornament and the other passed through the slide, so that the bracelet could be made large enough to pass over the hand, and then be contracted by drawing one end through the slide, so as t0 make the bracelet fit the arm. Band and other bracelets have been long before my invention provided with a latch to secure the same together. In the first class of bracelets the end eX- tending beyond the slide or ornament had to be longer than was consistent with good taste, and for persons having large hands and small wrists this pendent end became so long that it was very objectionable to the wearer. In the second class of bracelets the bracelet must be of a xed size, and cannot be securely worn except at the place and on the arm for which it is particularly made.
The object of this invention is to so construe chain or band bracelets that, while the same can be adjusted on the small part of the wrist over the gloves back of the small part ofthe wrist, or to arms differing in circumference, they can be readily secured without passing them over the hand.
The invention consists in constructing a bracelet so that one en d of the bracelet is secured to the slide by a latch and the other in the' slide by friction, as will be more fully set forth hereinafter.
Figure 1 is aview of my improved bracelet. Fig. 2 is an enlarged View, showing the connection of the band with the slide or ornament. Fig., 3 is a view of the end provided with a latch. Fig. i is an end view of the slide.
A designates one end portion of a bracelet, and .a is a spring-catch, which is secured to or formed upon this end oi' the bracelet. As shown in the drawings, this catch wis formed of a V-shaped spring-plate, one end of which is formed uponor attached to the end of the bracelet, while the opposite end of the catch is formed with a narrowed portion or tongue. I do not, however, propose to confine myself exclusivelyto this precise form of catch, as my invention contemplates any form of catch which is held in separable connection with the ornament merely by virtue of its own resilience. The opposite` end portion B of the bracelet maybe provided with the fringe or other pendant b.
C designates the .slide or ornament, which has a friction-stop, c, of cork or other suitable material. -The lower portion of the slide Gis divided horizontally into two compartments, the upper one of which is open at both ends, and is designed to receive the end B of the bracelet, while the low'er compartment, d, which constitutes the catch-socket, is open at one endonly, As shownin the drawings, the
lower part of the open end ofthe socket d isformed with a depression or notch to receive the tongue of the catch a, while the raised sides of said notch are engaged on their inner sides by the shoulders at the base of the catchtongue. It is to be understood, however, that the form of the socket-opening may be varied to suit desired modifications in the form of the catch.
It will be seen that. by this novel and peculiar construction the band or chain can be passed around the arm and the end A, secured by the catch c,- that then the end B can be drawn through the slide, so as to maketh'e bracelet iit the arm, whether over a glove or sleeve, or the bare arm,without materially extending the loose end orpendant, which therefore can be made of such size that under allV usual conditions the bracelet will present a natural and agreeable appearance. -As only a moderate adjustment is thus required, the
band or chain will not require to be as long as IOO by frictional contact and to hold the other end of said band by virtue of the resilient action ing a friction-stop for adjusting the size of the 1o 0f the said catch, substantially as described. bracelet, and a socket arranged to ,receive a 2.
