ALPHEUS YOUNG, JR, OE WORCESTER, MASSACHUSETTS.
BREASTPIN.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 393,413, dated November 27, 1888.
Application filed November 29, 1887. Serial No. 256,372. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, ALrrIEUs YOUNG, Jr., of \Vorcester, in the county of Worcester, State of Massachusetts, have invented a oer tain new and useful Improvement in Breastpins, of which the following is a description sufficiently full, clear, and exact to enable any person skilled in the art or science to which said invention appertains to make and use the same,'refercnce being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which- Figures 1 and 2 are front elevations showing my improved pin.
Like letters and figures of reference indicate Y corresponding parts in the different figures of the drawings.
My invention relates more especially to that class of pins which are used principally for ornament and generally known as breastpins, and it consists in the novel features, as hereinafter fully set forth andclaimed, the object being to produce asimpler,cheaper, and otherwise more desirable article of this description than is now in ordinary use.
The nature of the improvement will be readily understood by all conversant with such matters from the following explanation.
In the drawings, A represents the body of the pin considered as a whole; B, the pin proper, and O the catch or hook.
The body of the pin consists of a single piece of wire bent or curved to form lettersas, for instance, those composing a monogram or the wearers name.
extreme pointcbeing sharpened, so that it will more easily penetrate the cloth. The sharp bend at in the wire also subserves as a springhinge for the pin proper. The opposite end, f,of the wireis bent or folded back upon itself, and the portion so formed is curved upward at the rear of the last letter in the pin to form the hook or catch 0 for the pin proper.. The endf is then extended horizontally across the body of the pin beneath the letters, as shown in Fig. 1, or curved above and passed through the loops of some of the letters, as shown in Fig. 2, the extreme end 1) being then coiled around or secured to some portion of the letter nearest the hinge w, the portionf serving as a brace to stiffen or impart rigidity to the body of the pin.
It will be understood that one or more letters may be used in the body of the pin, as de scribed.
Having thus explained my invention, what I claim is- As an improved article of manufacture, a breastpin composed of a single piece of wire bent or coiled to form a letter or letters and a spring-hinge, one end portion of said wire being sharpened at its point and arranged horizontally at the rear of the body of the pin to form a pin proper, and the opposite end portion folded upon itself, and the folded portion bent to form a catch for the pin proper and secured to said body outside said catch to serve as a brace therefor, substantially as set forth.
