EAR-'RING FASTENING.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N0. 790,965, dated May 30, 1905.
Application filed March 10, 1905. Serial No. 249,359.
To all whom, it 11i/,ty concern:
Be it known that I, NATHAN LIEBERFREUND, a citizen of the United States, residing at New York city, Manhattan, county and State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Ear-Ring Fastenings, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to an improved earring fastening which is safe, of simple construction, and may be readily manipulated.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure lis a side view of an ear-ring provided with my improved fastening, showing it closed; Fig. 2, a similar View, showing it open; Fig. 3, a rear view; Fig. 4, a longitudinal section on line 4 4, Fig. 3; Fig. 5, a cross-section on line 5 5, Fig. 4; Fig. 6, a rear view of the guard; and Fig. 7, a front View of Fig. 6, partly in section.
The letter a represents the head or setting of an ear-ring which may be of suitable construction and design. From the head a projects rearwardly an ear-wire I), provided near its free end with an inclined hook or beak Z/ and with a finger-piece b2 back of said beak.
To the bottom of head a is fulcrumed by a stop-hinge c' a guard-wire o, which may be made in the form of a bail, the rear arm of which is longer than the front arm. This rear arm is provided near its upper end with an upright slot 02, adapted for the passage of the free end of wire together with its hook Below the slot 02 there is formed inthe guard c a perforation or rear indentation c3, adapted, to be engaged by hook 7)', so as to form a catch. The length of the slot cz'should be suicient to permit hook b to be brought into engagement with perforation 03, Fig. 4. In order to guide the end of the ear-wire b toward the slot c2, the rear arm of guard c is provided on its inner face with a longitudinal groove 04, within which the slot c2 is centered. Fig.
In use the guard c is opened, Fig. 2, the ear-wire is passed through the ear-lobe, and the guard is swung up until the hook b is projected through the slot c2 and snaps into the rear perforation c3, Figs. l and 4. Thus the fastening will be closed, the parts being held in engagement by a slight dip of the earwire cooperating with a rearward spring of the guard caused by the action of the stophinge c. To open the fastening, the ear-wire is slightly raised by its finger-piece b2, and the rear guard-arm is simultaneously pushed forward, when the hook b' will be withdrawn from the perforation c3, and the guard may be swung down, Fig. 2.
It will be seen that my improved fastening, though readily opened and closed by the wearer, requires sucha peculiar manipulation that any unauthorized or accidental opening is prevented.
What I claim is- 1. In an ear-ring, an ear-wire having a beak, combined with a guard-wire having a slot adapted for the reception of the ear-wire, and a perforation below the slot adapted to beangaged by the beak, substantially as speciiie 2. In an ear-ring, an earawire having a beak, combined with a guard-wire which is longitudinally grooved on its inner face and has a slot centered within said groove, and a perforation below the slot, substantially as specified.
Signed by me at New York city, Manhattan, New York, this 9th day of March, 1905.
NATHAN LIEBERFREUND.
