SPECTACLE-CASE HO LD ER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 358,566, dated March 1, 1887.
Application filed June 14, 1886. Serial No. 205,112.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that 1, ALLEN H. PALMERTON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Indianapolis, Marion county, Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Spectacle-Case Holders, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in spectacle-cases; and the novelty consists in the provision of means, substantially as hereinafter described, whereby a spectacle-case may be secured to the clothing of the user, and thereby be kept from loss or displacement, and at the same time within easy and convenient reach when needed. These ends will be fully appreciated by those to whom the use of spectacles or eyeglasses is a matter of necessity, because of the freedom insured thereby from loss of time and annoyance caused by the loss or displacement of their spectacles or eyeglass-cases, and the consequent search therefor, which, as is well known, frequently occurs.
A further advantage secured by the use of a case provided with my improvement lies in the fact that the glasses held thereby are main tained in a cleaner and clearer condition than those held by cases which are carried in the pockets of the user, inasmuch as the latter is liable to contact with particles of dust, &c. consequent upon the impingement upon said case of the sides of the pocket, which, as will very readily be seen, cannot occur when the case is secured to the exterior of the clothing.
A further advantage possessed by a case provided with my improvement consists in the fact that the glasses,when held thereby,are less liable to be broken than when held in cases carried in the pocket of the user.
The several advantages above enumerated are secured by the construction and arrangement of parts comprised in my improvement, as will behereinafter specifically pointed out.
In the accompanying drawings, in which similar letters of reference denote similar parts, Figure 1 represents a front elevation of a case for eyeglasses provided with my improvement. Fig. 2 is an elevation of the rear thereof. Figs. 3 and 4 represent, respectively, side and top edge views thereof.
Referring to the drawings, wherein is shown one embodiment of my invention, 0 desi nates (No model.)
a case which is open at one end, and, as here shown, is adapted solely to receive a pair of small folding eyeglasses, such as are in common use. Said case is provided upon its rear surface with a frame, S, consisting of aseries, preferably four in number, of arms, 3, that extend at right angles to each other from a common center, 8', and are at their outer ends, 3 turned or bent over the bottom and side edges of the case and the top edge of one of the sides of said case, as shown.
19 designates a securing-pin, which is bent upon itself at its top, and is at said point at tached by solder or otherwise to the upper of the arms 8 near the top thereof. The body of the pin, as shown, extends in a plane parallel with the face of the frame Sat a short distance therefrom. (See Fig. 3.)
If desired, the arms 8 of the frame may consist of separate strips crossed and secured togather at their junction by solder or its equivalent.
Although designed to be made and sold separate from and applied to any case of the class named already made, it is yet apparent that the frame S and its attached pin may be secured to a case at the time of manufacture of the latter, in which event the frame is secured to the body of the case below the outer covering thereof, as indicated in Fig. 2, wherein said cover is broken away to expose said frame.
In practice the pin isinserted in the clothing at the desired place, the case resting against the exterior surface thereof. As is apparent, the case may be quickly removed from and placed in position upon the clothing, as described.
Althongh shown herein as applied to a case designed solely to receive a pair of small eyeglasses, it will yet be apparent that any desired style, form, or size of case may be provided with said improvement.
If desired, the arms of the frame S may or;- tend only to the edges of the case, and may be secured thereto by strips of fibrous material, 3, which may be placed over said arms and gummed or otherwise secured to the case.
I am aware that holders for bouquets, tickets, &c., have been heretofore provided with a pin or pins whereby to secure such holders to the person of the wearer, and I therefore do not broadly claim the combination of a holding connected to said flame, substantially as de- 1'0 device with a pin. scribed.
