BIE'CTLFIEATIOIQ forming part of Letters Patent No. 333,873, dated January 5, 1886.
Application filed December 13, 1884. Serial No. 150,247. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that 1, JOHN G. Low, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chelsea, in the county of Suffolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Clock-Cases, of which the following is a specification.
The subject of this invention is a clock-case made of embossed dust tiles or pressed clay ornamented either in relief or intaglio,glazed, and held together by a frame or connection of metal, wood, or other material.
The manufacture of artistic embossed glazed dust tiles is in many respects a new art,in the development of which I have discovered and introduced improvements adapting this useful and attractive manufacture to a variety of uses to which tiles as heretofore made have not been applicable.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure I is a front view of a clock-case made, according to my invention, of art tiles connected by a suitable frame, which is preferably of brass, bronze, or other metal. Fig. 11 is a perspec tive view of a clock-case. Fig. III is a vertical section of the same,taken through the dial.
1 and 2 represent tiles having dial-openings 1 and 2, respectively, and made by what is known as the dust-tile process,and forming respectively the front and back of the clockcase. The ends are formed of similar tiles, 3 4, and at top by a tile, 5. These are all connected together by the frame 6 with the aid of plaster, or by means of clips or other suitable metal fastenings. The corner-posts 6 of the frame are utilized to supporta dial-frame, 6".
7 represents the dial of the clock, also made of ornamental tile, and fastened in its place by metal clips 8, projecting from a frame, 7, in which the dial is secured.
The tiles are perforated when desired for the attachment of metal or other projecting ornaments, as shown,f0r example,at 9.
Having thus described my'invention, the following is what I claim as new therein and desire to secure by Letters Patent:
A clock-case comprising a frame, 6, supporting a dialframe, 6, front tile, 1, having dial-opening 1, back tile,2, end tiles,3 and 4, top tile, 5, and dial-tile 7, having a frame, 7 by which it is secured in the dial-frame, and dial-opening, substantially as set forth.
