Description
d 'gisten www ` @eine IMPROVEMENT IN EAR-DROP SUSPENDERS.
To all whom 'it may concern: A
Be it known that I, LINUS WEED, of Norwalk, in the county of Fairfield, in the State of Connecticut, have invented a new and improved Device for Attachingand Suspending Ear-Drops; and I do hereby deciare the following is a full and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the ietters of reference marked thereon.
Like letters of reference refer to corresponding parts in ail the drawings.
Figure 1 is a view of my improved ear-drop suspender, as Vapplied to the ear iu its proper position.
Figure 2 is a side View of the suspender detached.
Figure 3 is a back view of the same.
The part shown in red ink in iig. 1, is not visible when the suspender is in position, but lies at the back of the ear, and is hidden by it.
lThe nature of lmy invention consists in providing -a clasp, or hook, which isself-retaining upon the top of the ear, in combination with another clasp, which em.- biaces the lobe of the ear, and sustains the drop, or jewei, the two being connected by a coiied spring, or its eqnivaient, for exerting a gentle pressure, and en abiing it to be adjusted to ears of varying form and size.
The part a passes behind the ear, with 'which its terminating hook a', engages and forms a loop round the ear for holding the suspender in its proper position, which is more particularly shown in g. l.
b is a spring, formed by making a few convolutions in thewire of Whichthe suspender is formed.
c represents the hook which embraces the lobe of the ear, and upon which the ear-drop is suspended.
The object of the spring b is to' keep the suspender in place, and prevent its falling ofi", by the gent-le pressure which it exerts when in position, tending to keep the part c ciose down on the ear, andaiso to adapt it to ears of different size.
- The hookc ciasps the lobe oi' the ear slightly, thereby preventing the ear-drop from being thrown off the hook by any sudden motion of the body, and also assisting to keep the suspender in place.
I prefer to make it of iight gold or silver wire, but it may be constructed or" any suitabie 'material possessing suiicient elasticity.
What 'claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-n An ear-clasp, or drop-suspender, constructed of a single Wire, `having upper and lower hooks, or clasps,
a c, and the intermediate spring b, substantially as Y Witnesses:
J. FRASER, R. W. Pnossnn.
