METHOD AND MEANS FOR APPLYING EYE MOUNTINGS IN DOLL HEADS.

Application filed January 22, 1925. Serial No. 3,931.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, LEO J. GRUBMAN, a citizen of the United States, and resident of BelleHarbor, Long Island, county of Queens, and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Methods and Means for Applying Eye Mountings in Doll Heads, of-which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to a method and means for applying eye mountings in doll heads and has for its primary object to prw vide an improved method for facilitating the application of the fulcrum means of the oscillatory eye mounting to the wall of the doll head, whereby the spaced eye members will be properly centered with respect to the eye sockets of the doll head for the pur-;

pose of realistically simulating the opening and closing movements of the human eye.

It is also another object of my present invention to provide a simple and inexpensive tool adapted for manual operation to simultaneously produce the fulcrum seats in opposite sides of the doll head wall. As hereinafter explained, the tool may either be constructed to seat the ends of the indi vidual fulcrum pins for the eye mounting in the wall of the doll head, whereby the mounting is suspended from the pins for oscillatory movement, or such tool may be constructed to provide the wall of the doll head with bearing seats for the reception of such fulcrum pins to be subsequently ap plied in operative position.

It is also an object 'of my present improvements to provide a method and means for the application of oscillatory eye mountings in doll heads which does not require the exercise of any special skill for the successful operation thereof, thus enabling the manufacturer to appreciably reduce the production cost of sleeping dolls.

\Vith the above and other objects in view. the invention ,consists in the improved method of. applying eye mountings in doll heads and in the new tool whereby such method may be satisfactorily performed as will be hereinafter more fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings and subsequently incorporated in the subjoined claims. y

In the drawings wherein similar reference characters designate corresponding parts throughout the several views,

F'gure 4 is a plan view illustrating an alternative embodiment of the tool,

Figure 5 is a side elevation thereof, and

Figure 6 is an end elevation of said al ternative construction.

The tool or means for applying the eye mounting in the doll head, as illustrated in its preferred embodiments in the accompanying drawings, is particularly designed for use in connection with an eye mounting of the construction described and claimed in my Patent No. 1,540,522, issued June 2, 1925, and therefore I have illustrated and shall later describe in a general way, an eye mounting of such construction. However, it is contemplated and should be un derstood that neither the tool nor the method of application of the mounting within thedoll head is necessarily restricted in its utility to an eye mounting of this particular type.

With the above understanding, my pres ent improvements may now be described with reference to the accompanying draw ings'and for the present, more particularly to Figures 1, 2 and 3 thereof, wherein I have shown a tool consisting of a supporting body, generally indicated at 5, and which may be of any preferred form or shape. At its upper end, the tool body or standard 5 is provided with an arm 6, projecting from one side thereof, said arm being formed in its upper surface with a longitudinally extending channel or guidway 7. This guideway extends the entire length of said arm and likewise in the upper face of the supporting standard 5, and at the endof the arm 6, at each side of said guidewa'y, said arm is provided with a vertically extending slot 8 therein. In each of these slots a plate 9 is located and securely fixed by the transverse riv'ets, bolts, screws or analogous fastening elements 10. Each plate 9 projects above the upper surface of the arm 6, and intermediate of its ends is provided with a recess 11 in its upper edge. At its outer end, a longitudinally-projecting lug 12 is formed upon the upper edge of the plate, said lug being spaced above the upper surface of the arm 6.

In the channel 7, a slide bar 13 is positioned, said bar being retained in the channel by a cap plate It extending over said bar and fixed by suitably threaded bolts or screws 15 to the supporting body or standard 5 of the too]. One end of this slide bar carries cam means for actuating fulcrum seat forming pins. As shown in Figure l of the drawings, in one form of the device, this cam means may be provided upon a plate 16 fixed to one end of the slide bar 13, said plate having a relatively narrow neck 17 projecting longitudinally therefrom beyond the end of the slide bar and said neck portion merging into a gradually widening head 18. Thus, the cam surfaces 19 are produced upon opposite sides of the neck 17 and head 18. The end of the head 18 at its underside has a bevelled or downwardly inclined surface 20, the purpose of which will hereinafter appear.

Any convenient means may be provided for actuating the slide bar 13, but for this purpose I have herein shown a vertically positioned hand operated lever 21, pivoted at its lower end, as at 22, upon the tool body This lever extends through a slot 23 in the rear end of the slide bar 13 and is coniined therein by the transverse pin 24, said lever coacting with said pin and with the rounded or convex bearing surface 25 at the inner end of the slot 23 for the reciprocation of the slide bar 13 in relatively opposite directions.

For the purpose of understanding the manner of application of the eye mounting to the tool, the mounting as shown in my copending application above referred to will be herein described in a general way. Thus, as shown, the mounting consists essentially of a frame plate 31, which may be conveniently produced in theform of metal stamping. This stamping consists of a substantially U-shaped body having parallel arms connected at one of their ends by an obliquely disposed weighted portion 32 of the frame plate. Each of theframe arms 33 is provided on its opposite edges with an angularly projecting -ear 34 and in these ears the axially movable fulcrum pins for the respective eye members 36 are ongaged. Between the rear edge of each eye member and the frame arm, a longitudinally" slotted leaf spring 37 is interposed, said spring being bowed and hearing at its intermediate portion on the frame plate, while the ends thereof are engaged over the rear edge of the eye mem er at diametrically opposite points. The frame arm has spaced longitudinal slots therein to receive the upper edge portions of the plate 9 at opposite sides of the recess 11 therein, said upper edge portions of the plate also engaging in the slot of the leaf spring 37, while said frame arm at its juncture with the oblique portion 32 of the frame is engaged under the lug .20 and between said lug and the upper surface of the tool arm 6. As herein shown, each of the e e members 36 is in the form of a shell having diametrically opposed slots in the wall thereof which receive the fulcrum pin 35, said slots permitting of the yielding movement of the eye members independently of each other with respect to the fulcrum pns and against the resistance of the springs 3 The frame of the eye mounting also carries a resiliently movable arm 38 fixed at one of its ends to the part 32 of the frame and extending longitudinally between the arms 33 thereof. This resiliently movable arm 38 at its free end is provided with rigid lugs or ears 39 on its opposite side edges and with a similar lug 40 on its end edge disposed on a plane at right angles to the lugs 39.

In positioning the eye mounting upon the tool, the frame arms are held at an angle to first engage the lugs 12 of the plates 1) through the inner longitudinal slots in said frame arms. Said arms are then moved downwardly and at the same time shifted longitudinally in an inward direction upon the tool arm 6, so as to position said frame arms on the upper surface of the arm 6 at opposite sides of the channel 7 therein and with portions of said frame arms positioned in the recesses 11 and beneath the lugs 12 of the plates 9. Thus, the mounting will be securely held in position upon the arm 6 of the tool. When so positioned, it will be noted that the rear edges of the eye shells or members 36 are in contact upon the upper edges of the plates 9.

In applying the tool mounting in proper position within the doll head, the head indicated at H is positioned over the tool arm and the eye mounting thereon and the walls of the eye sockets of said doll head, shown at S, are engaged in contacting relation upon the peripheral surfaces of the respective eye members 36, the upper and lower edges of the eye socket walls being accurately positioned relative to the iris, which is painted on the surface of the eye member. Thus it will be understood that the head is manipulated until the eyes are in the, position which they should occupy when open relative to the walls of the eye sockets.

After the head has been properly positioned as just described, the slide bar 13 is retracted by the operation of the lever 21. As shown in Figures 1 and 2, it will be noted that the resilient arm 38 is held in depressed position by the engagement of the lug 40 thereon against the under side of the cam plate 16. WVhen the slide bar is retracted,

the cam edges 19 of the neck 17 and the head 18, on the end of the plate 15, successively coacting with the inner opposed ends of the pins 35, simultaneously project said pins axially in relatively opposite directions through the openings in the eye members 36 and the ears 34 on the mounting, whereby the outer pointed ends of these fulcrum pins are impaled or embedded in the wall of the the doll head H, at the opposite sides thereof. Thus, the seats for these fulcrum pins are accurately located in the doll head wall in proper relation to each other and to the eye sockets S, although it may be possible that the centers of these eye sockets are out of alignment. At the end of the retracting movement of the slide bar 13, the end lug 40 on the resilient arm 38 rides upon the inclined surface 20 of the cam head 18, said resilient arm thus springing upwardly to its normal position, whereby the lugs 39 on said armare interposed between the inner ends of the fulcrum pins and act as stops, preventing inward movement of these pins towards each other and obviating any possibility of the other ends of said fulcrum pins becoming disengaged from their-seats in the wall'of the doll head.

After the mounting has thus been applied within the doll head, the doll head is lifted and the eye mounting removed from the tool arm by the reversal of the movements used in'positioning said mounting on the arm. As above noted, when the eye mounting was arranged upon the tool arm the plates 9 engaged the rear edges of the eye members, thus supporting said members in their normal positions and in definite relation with respect to the fulcrum pins 35. Therefore, t will be apparent that when the doll head is positioned, bearing pressure of the eye socket walls upon the respective eye members in the operation of accurately adjusting the location of said eye members in the respective eye openings will not tend to force the eye members inwardly relatively to the pins 35 and compress the springs 37 It will thus be understood that owing to the provision of these supporting plates 9 for the eye members, when the head with the attached mounting is removed from the tool arm, the eye members may have a receding movement from the walls of the eye sockets and with respect to the pins 35, such movement of the eye members being yieldingly cushioned by the springs 37. Thus, the leaf springs 37 can now act upon the individual eye members to maintain the requisite degree of pressure upon the walls of the eye sockets and to yieldingly transmit'the oscillatory movements of the eye mounting to said eye members.

Owing to the yleldmg relative movement between the eye members and the respective fulcrum pins therefor, these members will automatically accommodate themselves to any structural unevenness or inaccuracies in the walls of the eye sockets, thereby obviating possibility of binding of the eye members upon said walls which would result in an impeded or sluggish oscillation of the eye members and destroy the realistic simulation of the movements of the human eye.

It will be immediately perceived by those familiar with the art, that owing to the new method of applying the eye setting in operative position within the doll head, as above explained, considerable time and labor is saved in properly and accurately positioning the eye members with respect to the walls of the eye sockets, and although such application may be readily made by unskilled labor, a high degree of accuracy in fixing the fulcrum points for the mounting on the spaced surfaces of the doll head and thereby establishing such relationship is possible. In other words, instead of first mounting the eye setting within the doll head and fixing the fulcrum means thereof in relation to the doll head, and thereafter attempting to adjust the respective eye members in proper relation to the eye sockets, I propose to first accurately position the walls of the eye sockets with respect to the iris portion of the" respective eye members, and thereafter fix the location of the fulcrum means for the eye setting with respect to the wall of the doll head. Thus, in the latter case, it will be seen that even though the centers of the eye sockets may be out of properhorizontal align ment with each other, and likewise at different distances from the rear wall of the doll head, nevertheless, the individual fulcrum pins for the respective eye members will be properly located and fixed in position so that each of said eye members will have its peripheral. surface properly located with respect to the wall of the eye socket with which it is associated, so that its free and unretarded oscillation will be assured.

lVith the methods heretofore used in the application of such, eye settings, in those cases where the eye sockets were inaccurately formed, with their centers out of alignment, it was found to be practically impossible to properly adjust the respective eye members after the fulcrum means for the setting is positioned in relation to the wall of the doll head, whereby an accurate and realistic movement of the eye members in the respective sockets could be obtained. 1

In view of the above it will further be apparent that I may, if desired, first fix or accurately locate the fulcrum receiving seats on the spaced surfaces of the doll head wall, and thereafter mount or arrange the eye setting within said head and engage the individualfulcrum pins in said seats. In Figprovided with a longitudinally extending slide bar receiving channel 7 as in the construction first described, and at opposite.

' sides of this channel, at the outer end of the arm, the dummy eye members 36 are mounted. As herein shown, each of these members has a rounded semispherical surface approximately corresponding in diameter to the diameter of eye setting, said members 36' being formed or suitably fixed upon one end of the rod or bolt 41, which is inserted through a vertical opening formedin the arm 6, a suitable nut 42 being threaded upon the lower end of said bolt. Each of the members 36 is provided with an open: iug 43 extending horizontally therethrough at right angles to the line of movement of the slide bar 13 and intersecting the geometrical center of said member. A fulcrum seat forming element 44 is axially movable through each of these openings 43. In the resent instance, I have shown the seat formlng elements in the form of metal pins having reduced portions terminating in the seat forming )oints 45. Each of said pins at its other end is provided with a downwardly projecting lug 46. These lugs are engaged in the spaced cam slots 48 formed in the plate 47 fixed upon the end of the slid: bar 13. It will be noted that the longitudi nally extending cam slots 48 converge towards each other from their inner to their outer ends, and when the lugs 46 of said pins are engaged in the outer ends of said slots, as shown in Figure 4 of the drawings, the seat forming elements are in their retracted positions with respect to the members 36, or, at the limit of their inward movement.

In the use of the above described tool, the doll head is engaged over the tool arm 6' and the walls of the eye sockets thereof are roperly seated upon the rounded perip eral surfaces of the members 36'. After the proper contacting relation of the eye socket walls on said members is secured, the slide bar 13 is moved outwardly in the channel of the arm 6 by the proper manipulation of the lever or other operating means for said slide, whereby the walls of the cam slots 48 by their coaction with the lugs 46 on the inner ends of the respective pins 44, move the pins axially under pressure in relatively op positedirections through the openings of the members 36 and project their pointed ends 45 into the surfaces of the doll head wall at the opposite sides thereof, thus forming in said surfaces conical seats in which the similarly shaped ends of the fulcrum pins for the eye setting may subsequently be engaged. By then retracting the slide 13,

the pins 44 may be drawn inwardly towards each other from their former positions and disengaged from the conical seats which have been formed thereby in the doll head wall. The doll head may then be removed. In this manner, it will be obvious that the fulcrum receiving seats may be rapidly and accurately located in the doll heads and said doll heads then passed to another workman, who fits or applies the eye settings therein. Since the radius of the individual eye members of the eye settings is the same as the radius of the semispherical surfaces of the members 36, the spherical surfaces of the eye members will bear exactly the same relationship to the walls of the eye sockets as the surfaces of said members 36 bore to said walls when the fulcrum receiving seats were formed in the surfaces of the head wall. Therefore, it will be seen that by the use of either of the tools herein described, which involves the fundamental principle of locating the proper points for the fulcrum receiving seats by first positioning the eye socket walls upon the semispherical surfaces of the spaced eye members or their equivalents, the desired accuracy in the mounting of the eye setting may be realized, whereby the free oscillation of the respective eye members in proper relation to the wall of the eye socket with which it is associated will be obtained. In such oscillating movements, a very realistic simulation of the opening and closing movements of the human eye is pro duced. Moreover, it will be apparent that by means of my new method and thetool, which I have devised for use in the practice thereof, the quantity production of such sleeping dolls may be greatly increased with a corresponding saving in manufacturing cost.

From the foregoing description considered in connection with the accompanying drawings, the construction, manner of operation and the several advantages of the embodiments of the invention herein disclosed will be clearly understood. In so far as the new method of applying the eye in pro or position is concerned, it is apparent t at other mechanical means than that herein pfarticularly referred to might be employed. owever, I find that a tool, as shown in Figures 1, 2 and 3, is of great convenience and may be operated with maximum rapidltyto accurately fix the fulcrum means for the eye setting in position. Nevertheless. it is to be understood that both this tool construction as well as that shown in Figures 4, 5 and 6 of the drawings, is susceptible of embodiment in other alternative structures. Accordingly I reserve the privilege of adopting all such legitimate changes thereof as may be embodied within the spirit and scope of the invention as claimed.
