Description
May 17, 1966 A. J. TAKACS JEWELRY COVER Filed March 31, 1964 United States Patent 3,251,066 JEWELRY COVER Anna J. Takacs, 9 Bender Place, Cliifside Park, NJ. Filed Mar. 31, 1964, Ser. No. 356,238 1 Claim. (Cl. 2-46) This invention relates to covers for articles of jewelry normally worn on the wrists, as for example charm bracelets or the like, when the same are being Worn.
An object of the invention is to provide a cover for charm brackelets or the like which may be conveniently positioned thereover when the latter are being worn on the wrist of the user, to prevent the snagging of the sharp edges of the brackelets with articles of clothing, such as sweaters or coats, during the putting on or taking off of such articles of clothing over the bracelet.
A further object of the invention is the provision of a cover as above of simple, economical and durable design and construction.
In a preferred embodiment herein disclosed, the cover comprises a hollow, generally cylindrical cover member of any suitable material, as for example a tightly woven nylon mesh, which includes resilient .means of normally lesser circumferential extent atfixed thereto adjacent the respective edge portions thereof. In use, the cover is slid over the hand of the user to a position on the wrist thereof surrounding the said bracelet or the like, and maintained therearound by the action of said resilient means. With the cover thusly positioned, any sharp edges of the said bracelet or the like are effectively covered thereby and will thus not snag with articles of clothing, such as sweaters or coats, which may come in contact therewith during the putting on or taking off thereof.
The above and other objects, advantages and details of the cover of the invention are believed made clear by the following detailed description thereof taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein:
FIGURE 1 is a perspective view of the cover of the invention operatively positioned over a bracelet on the wrist of a user; and v FIGURE 2 is a more detailed perspective view of the cover of the invention.
Referring now to the drawings, and particularly to FIGURE 2, the cover of the invention is indicated generally at 12 and comprism a generally strip 14 of any suitable material, as set forth hereinabove, stitched together as indicated at 24 to form a hollow, generally cylindrical cover member. Alternatively, the said cover member may, of course, be manufactured as a seamless cylindrical member in a manner well known in the art to thus eliminate the need for the stitching indicated at 24.
Two'lengths of the elastic thread, 16 and 18, respectively, are affixed as shown to the cover member adjacent the respective edge portions thereof by being stitched thereto, as indicated at and 22, to assume the generally circular shapes depicted in the drawings. Alternatively, the function of the said lengths of elastic thread 16 and 18 could be performed by thinner threads of similar elastic properties woven directly into the strip 14 during the manufacture thereof in a maner well known in the art.
An article of jewelry which includes a large number of sharp edge portions, as for example a charm bracelet or the like, is indicated generally at 10 in FIGURE 1 in the normal position thereof on the wrist of a user, and the generally bulbous cover 12 of the invention depicted as operatively positioned thereover to clearly illustrate the manner in which the said cover effectively covers the bracelet to prevent the sharp edge portions thereof from snagging with articles of clothing, such as sweaters or coats, put on or taken oil thereover. In use, the cover of the invention may be put on prior to the putting on or taking off of a said article of clothing, and removed thereafter, or may, if desired, be worn continually during the wearing of the article of jewelry to be covered thereby.
The cover of the invention may, of course, be made in a variety of sizes commensurate with the varying wrist sizes of prospective users thereof, and this may be accomplished, in the herein disclosed preferred embodiment, by merely varying the respective lengths of strip 14 and elastic threads 16 and 18.
While I have shown and described the preferred embodiment of the invention, it will be understood that the invent-ion may be embodied otherwise than as herein specifically illustrated or described, and that certain changes in'the form and arrangement of parts and in the specific manner of practicing the inventionmay be made without departing from the underlying idea or principles of this invention within the scope of the appended claim.
What is claimed is:
A jewelry cover comprising a generally rectangular strip of a relatively close-woven nylon mesh which is relatively impervious to the penetration or snagging thereof by the sharp edges of articles of jewelry, the respective shorter edges thereof being stitched together to form a generally cylindrical member, and elastic threads of normally lesser length than the circumferential extent of said generally cylindrical member being aflixed to the respective longer edges of said generally rectangular strip to form a generaly bulbous cover member therefrom whereby, the said cover member may be placed and retained over articles of jewelry worn on the wrist of a wearer to prevent the snagging of articles of clothing by the said articles of jewelry upon the movement of the former over the latter.
