(Ei hth-i. 1mm; dated mm] This invention relates to a casing for 4; small desk clocks or for other similar time t pieces. Such casings are commonly formed of celluloid or the equivalent and my inven- 6 tion relates particularly to im rovements in the construction of such cloc casings, my l object being to provide a casin formed of a reduced number of parts, eac of simple construction and easily manufactured.
A further object of my invention is to prowide a casing made up as a single inseparable unit and requiring no additional loose or separate parts to constitute a complete clock 7 casin In particular, I form the dial ring and t e movement-supporting sleeve as unitary arts of the casing, with consequent reduced cost of manufacture and decreased liability to loss or displacement of parts in assemblin the movement with the casing.
' A pre erred form of my invention is shown in the drawings, in which Fig. 1 is a perspective view of my improved clock casing; t 1 Figs. 2 and 3 are vertical sectional views of the front and back pieces of which the casli riig is formed;
y g. 4 is a sectional side elevation taken along the line 44 in Fig. 1 and indicating the sition of a movement therein, and
1g. 5 is a. detail sectional elevation showin a slight modification. Iteferrmgto the drawings, my improved clock casing comprises a front casing part and a rear casing part 11. These parts 10 and 11 are provided with out-turned flanges 12 which are cemented or otherwise "secured together to form a sin le encircling rib was indicated in Fig. 4. T e upper portion of the rib 13 may be extended and shaped to form a handle 14.when so desired. The front portion 10 of the casing is provided with an integral dial ring or frame 1'5 adapted to fit closely against the glass of the clock movement as indicated in Fig. 4. The back portion 11 of the casing is also provided with an inwardly projecting inover the'cylindrical barrel of the movement and firmly supporting the movement in position in the casing.
r The movement ma be so closely fitted within the sleeve 16 that it will be firmly retained in position therein or any suitable tegral cylindrical sleeve 16 fitting closely fastening devices may be additionally employed, if so desired. Lugs or feet on which the caslng may rest are provided when desired but constitute no part of my inven-' tion.
In Fig. 5 I have shown a slight modification in which a cylindrical sleeve 17 projects outward at the rear of the casing instead of lnward as in Fig. 3. This modified construction is sometimes desirable to adapt a casin for use with a clock movement of unusua length. I I
From the foregoing description, it will be seen that my improved clock casingis formed from a minimum number of parts which are ermanently secured together to form a sing e unitary structure, thus greatly simplifying both the manufacture of the casing and the assembly of a clock movement therewith. V p
Having thus described my invention and the advantages thereof, Ido not wish to be limited to the details herein disclosed otherwise than as set forth in the claims, but what I claim is ir 1. A clock casing comprising a single inseparable unit having a casing side wall and a front face wall extending inwardly there from, said face wall having a dial opening,
and a dial ring formed integral with said front face wall and displaced outwardly from theframe of said wall around said dial opening.
2. A clock casing comprising a front and a back portion, said portions bein provided with flanges thereon permanent y secured together.
3. A clock casing comprising a front and a back portion, said portions being provided with out-turned flanges thereon permanently secured together, the front portion of said casing having a dial ring integral therewith, and the back portion of said casing having a cylindrical sleeve to support a clock movement in said casing.
4. A clock casing comprising a front and a back portion, said portions being provided with out-turned flanges thereon permanently secured together, and said flanges being extended to form a handle for said casing.
5. A celluloid clock casing comprising a front and a back portion, said parts belng provided with flanges thereon permanently I Re. 16,811
