INVENTOR I TORNEY WILLIAM J. WAKEFIELD, OF NEWARK, NEXV JERSEY.
LOCKET.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 24, 1910.
Application filed March 13, 1908. Serial No. 420,784.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ILLIAM J. lVAKn- FIELD, a citizen of the United States, residing at Newark, in the county of Essex and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Lockets; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
This invention refers to an improved locket in which the parts are held in secure alinement, and the parts, when fitted together, require less trimming and finishing on the edges than is required by the usual style of locket.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which- Figure 1 is a section of a locket made in accordance with my improved construction, and Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the parts when they are separated. Fig. 3 is a plan of one of the ends of the members with the pintle blocks in place.
The invention consists of swinging members that are hinged together, and the hinged members 10 and 11 are formed of plates suitably ornamented and shaped and adapted to form the lids of the locket. The plate 10 is provided with recessed portions 12 adapted to be in register with the recessed portions 13 that are placed in the member 11. Each member is provided with a plate 14: adapted to fit the edges of the members 10 and 11, the plates being soldered or otherwise secured each plate preferably having the perforation 15 to form means for holding a glass bezel or similar fixture. Each plate 14 is provided with a depression 16 forming a groove, the lip forming this depression being integral with the plate 14C and is placed thereon by means of a die which insures all the plates being alike and having the same curvature and also the same depth.
In the depression 16, of each plate, is secured a suitable block or blocks 17 which form the pintle blocks, and are made of hollow wire as now used in this class of jewelry, and a pin 18 is inserted as a pintle for the structure. These parts, when assembled, are finished off as is usually done in jewelry, making the whole outside surface smooth, and when polished the joints are not seen. It will be understood that the pintle blocks 17 that are made from the hollow wire, are fastened on alternate sides to the plates 14;, and in this way the hinged relation is caused.
This structure avoids the unsatisfactory features of prior constructions, since in the prior structure the plate 14. was made with one of the members 10 or 11 and then milled and cut out to form space for the hollow wire which was put inside another piece of hollow wire which formed the groove. This took considerably more time than the way of doing it shown herein, and the grooves to receive the hinged elements were not in perfect alinement and therefore the edges of the hinged members, when they came together, were not absolutely square or in register.
This invention provides for the use of but one layer or tubular continuation of hol low wire, and the saving of material and time is considerable.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is 1. An improved piece of jewelry comprising swinging members, plates to fit around the edges of the said members, the plates having integral depressed portions on their opposed faces, pintle blocks secured in the depressed portions, and a pintle passing through the pintle blocks to secure the me1nbers in hinged relation.
2. An improved piece of jewelry comprising hinged members, each hinged member having recessed portions on one edge, plates, one to be secured to each member and having depressed portions integral therewith, the depressed portions fitting in the recesses of the members, pintle blocks secured in the depressed portions, and a pintle in the pintle blocks and maintaining the members in hinged relation.
3. An improved piece of jewelry comprising circular plates adapted to be hinged together and having raised edges, the raised edges at the hinged part having recesses In testimony, that I claim the foregoing, therein, annular plates, one fitting in each I have hereunto set my hand this 12th day member and having integral depressed porof March 1908.
tions to fit in the recesses of the hinged mem- WILLIAM J. WAKEFIELD. 5 bers, hollow Wire pintle blocks secured in Witnesses:
the grooves, and a pintle passing through WM. H. OAMFIELD,
the pintle blocks. a E. A. PELL.
