IPURSE-LOCKET.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 723,600, dated March 24, 1903. Application filed January 16,1903. Serial No. l39,255. (No model.)
T at whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, SAMUEL K. GE VER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Providence, in the county of Providence and State of Rhode Island, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Purse-Lockets, of which the following is a specification.
This invention has reference to purselocket-s, and more particularly to an improvement in the method of securing the coinholder in the locket.
The usual purse-locket consists of a twopart hinged casing to form the locket and a spring actuated coinholder in the locket, with means of opening the locket to remove the coin from the holder. As heretofore constructed the coin-holder was secured in onehalf of the locket by solder. The use of solder for this purpose is slow, expensive, and,detrimental, as the heat generated in soldering will ruin the spring in the coin-holder and discolor the casing. The object of this invention is to mechanically secure the coin-holder in the casing or locket without the use of solder; and the invention consists in the peculiar and novel construction of the coin holder frame formed from sheet metal and having wedge-shaped arms adapted to be forced or expanded into an annular groove and under a circular lip forming a part of the casing or locket, as will be more fully described hereinafter and pointed out in the claims.
Figure 1 is an edge view of my improved purse-locket. Fig. 2 is a front view showing the locket open and giving access to the coinholder. Fig. 3 is a View, partly in section, looking from the back, showing the outwardly-expanded arms on the coin-holder frame for securing the coin-holder in the locket. Fig. 4 is a sectional View taken lengthwise through the locket and coin-holder and Fig.5 is a perspective view of the'coinholder frame, showing the wedge-shaped arms for securing the coin-holder in the locket.
In the drawings, a is the locket, constructed to form the back a and the cover 1 and having the usual hinge, case-spring, stem, head,'and ring. The back a has the circular lip a forming the annular groove a and the central opening (F. The coin-holder. is
composed of the frame I), inclosing the pushplate 0 and the coiled spring (1 in spring tension with the push-plate and the back of the locket. The cylindrical coin-holder frame I), formed from sheet metal, has the semicircular retaining-lip b on its upper end, the coin-slot b in the upper edge, and the wedgeshaped fastening arms b I) cut out from the cylindrical side of the frame at the lower or open end in two or more places, as shown in Fig. 5.
The casing or locket a, with the circular lip 0, forming the annular groove a and the central opening a is complete before the coin-holder is inserted and fastened in the locket. The coin-holder is assembled and inserted through theopening a in the position as shown in Fig. 2. The push-plate c is now depressed to its limit and a tool is inserted over the push plate. This tool is formed on its end to engage with the wedge shapedfastening-arms b b of the coin-holder frame to force or expand them into the annular groove a and under the circular lip a firmly fastening the coin-holder in the locket.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent-. 7
1. In a purse-locket, a casing having the form of a locket, an annular groove in the casing and a spring-actuated coin-holder having arms adapted to'be forced or expanded into the annular groove for securing the coinvholder in the casing, as described.
2. In a purse-locket, the combination with the casing a in the form of a locket, having the back a, the cover a the circular lip a forming the annular groove a and the opening (1 the spring-actuated coin-holder, composedof the coiled spring d, the push-plate c and the cylindrical frame I) having the semicircular retaining-lip b, the coin-slot b and the wedge-shaped arms 12 b out out of the cylindrical side of the frame and adapted to be forced or expanded into the annular groove a and under the circular lip a to secure the coin-holder in the casing, as described.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in thepresence of two subscribing witnesses.
SAMUEL K. GROVER.
