ATTLEBOROUGH, MASSACHUSETTS.
CUFF-HOLDER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 366,986, dated July 19, 1887.
(No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, GEORGE K. XVEBsrEE, of North Attleborough, in the county of Bristol and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improvementin Ladies Cuff Holders; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same.
My invention is an improved article ofjewelry designed especially as an attachment or clasp for holding ladies cuffs in position; but it is obvious that it may be used alone in other positions.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l representsthe clasp in position upon the sleeve and its connection with the cuff-button. Figs. 2, 3, and 4 represent detail views of the clasp. Fig. 5 is a modification.
In the drawings I have represented a con Venient ornamental form in which the invention may be embodied. In this form there are two wings, a a, which may be struck up or otherwise formed out of precious plated or rolled metal. These wings are provided with hinges, by means of which they are hinged, being out and turned at right angles to the plane of the wings, as shown at c. There are two hinges upon each wing, and there is a hole made in each hinge, and when the hinges are properly placed together the holes register in the wings, so that a pin, b, may be inserted and complete the hinge. The hinges, instead of being formed out ofthe metal ofthe wings, may be soldered thereto. A coiled spring, (Z, is interposed between the hinges, and the pin when inserted is run through the center of the coil, while theends of the spring, projecting in oppositedirections; bear upon or are fastened to the back of the wings, as shown ate 6. Pressure of the spring tends to force the wings downward.
On the under side of the wings, and at their inner edges, are arranged hooks or claws f, preferably two on each wing. The ends of these are turned inward toward each other, and when the wings are drawn backward and pressed together the hooks or claws are opened. The reaction of the spring closes forcibly and drives theminto the fabric,where it holds them with a secure grip.
Instead of pivoting the wings upon a pin, I may, as shown in Fig. 4, provide a spring of sufficient length to pass through the hinges of the wings, and secure the spring to the wings. so that it takes the place of the pivot-pin, and 5 at the same time puts the parts under proper tension. p
The hooks or claws may be formed out of the metal of the wings, or may be soldered thereto. A fine ornamental chain may be attached to this article by connection with a loop formed on the end of the pin, on which it is hinged, and this chain may be connected at the other end to a cuff or any other ornamental article of personal wear, for securing the same 6 against displacement or loss. The article may be made toimitate a winged insect, or it may have any desired ornamental form.
It will be understood that the ornament may be used as a lace or scarf pin, or in other situ- 7o ations independent of or in connection with any other article ofjewelry.
I am aware that prior to my invention a fastening device has been provided consisting of wings having hooks upon their under surface adapted to be opened by pressing the wings together, with a spring between the wings for returning them to their normal position, and I do not broadly claim this as my invention.
I claim as my invention- 1. A clasp consisting ofwings having hinges, a central spring passing through hinges on the wings, and hooks or claws on the wings arranged to be closed by the spring, substantially as described.
2. A cuff-holder consisting of a pin having a chain connecting said pin with the cnfi" or like button, and a fastening device combined with the pin, consisting of wings, a central spring passing through hinges on the wings, 0 and hooks or claws on the wings for connection with the sleeve, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
GEORGE K. \VEBSTER.
