Patented Feb. 9, 1932 UNITED STATES PATENT, oFFm WILLIAM LIOI-ITENFELS, OF ORANGE. NEW JERSEY, ASSIGNOR TO COMPANY,
. A CORPORATION OF NEW JERSEY BRACELET 01min Application filed July 17,
This invention relates to a bracelet chain, and has for its object to provide a construction having the appearance of inner and outer series of links, the inner series being within the outer series.
A further object of this invention is to provide a chain having open work for the circulation of air and in which each unit has an outer portion and an inner portion within it similarly shaped and symmetrically disposed with relation thereto.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a connection between inner and outer portions of the unit which will be similar to and present a symmetrical appearance with the connection between outer portions of the units, whereby an attractive appearance may be provided for the construction.
\Vith these and other objects and advan tageous features in view, the invention consists of a novel arrangement of parts more fully disclosed in the detailed description following, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, and more particularly set forth in the appended claims.
In the drawings:
Fig. 1 is a top plan view of a pair of links connected together in hinged relation;
Fig. 2 is a bottom view thereof;
Fig 3 is a section on line 3-3 of Figure 1;
Fig. 4 is a section. on line 44 of Figure 1;
Fig. 5 is a perspective view of one of the units in which the inner and outer portions are formed in a single piece;
Fig. 6 is a top plan view of a modified construction in which the inner and outer parts of each unit are formed separate and con nected together;
Fig. 7 is a bottom view of the structure shown in Figure 6; and
Bracelet chains are formed with openings in the links, such links often belng generally rectangular in shape, and in order to provide a bracelet having the desirable features of the open-work bracelet for circulation of air about the arm or the like and yet provide a construction which will be stronger and of neat and varied appearance, I have formed within each of the outer link portions an in- 1930. Serial No. 468,578.
ner link portion of generally the same shape and configuration and symmetrically disposed with relation to the outer portion, and have connected the longitudinally extending bars of the two links by cross bars, which are hinged together; and the following is a detailed description of the present embodiment of this invention illustrating the preferred means which these advantageous results may be accomplished.
lVith reference to'the drawings, Figure 5 discloses a perspective view of one of the units which has outer bars 10 extending longitudinally of the chain and inner bars 11 similarly disposed and symmetrically arranged with reference thereto with spaces 12 between theinnerand the outer bars. Cross bars 13 extend between the outer bars and are oifset inwardly as at 14 to eXtend between and connect the inner bars 11 and provide a notch 28 for the purposes hereinafter described.
These units are connected together by memhere 15 folded about and embracing adjacent bars 13 at spaced intervals, such as at each side of the oifset portion 14, and located in an opening 16 between the end of the inner bars 11 and the cross bar 13, to hingedly connect the units together. A member 17 is folded about each of the ofi'set'portions 14 in the notch 28 to provide a similar appearance to the members 15 and cause the inner portion of the link to have the appearance of an inner chain within the outer chain to present a desirable effect for the bracelet. The cross bar 13 and its offset portion 14 are of a thickness less than the thickness of the longitudinally extending bars 10 and 11,
r as is illustrated clearly in Figure 5, the thickness being substantially diminished by the Fig. 8 is a section on line 88 of Figure 6.
thickness of the stock of the members 15 or 17 which are folded about the cross bars to embrace the same, so that when completed, the tops of the members 15 and 17 lie flush with the top surface of the bars 10, as illustrated clearly at 18 in Figure 4.
In some instances, I may form the chain of individual inner and .outer'links, as illustrated in Figures 6 and 7,,the outer links 19 being complete within themselves, having series of links together.
outer bars connected by cross bars 21 at their ends, while the inner links are also complete, having longitudinally extending bars 22 connected by cross bars 23 at each of their ends. The bars 23 are connected to the bars 21 by members 2 1 at each end, while the bars 21 are hingedly connectedto each other by connector members 25 at either side of the members 2%, which members 25 may be con-- nected together as illustrated by a web 26. The cross bars 21 are notched as at 27 topermit the members24 to be inset thereinto and lie flush with the end surfaces of these cross bars in the same manner as the offset portion 14': forms a notch 28 for the reception of the member 17, heretofore described.
I have thus provided a chain in which each of the units consists of inner and outer members having the appearance when connected of two individual chains one within the other with each of the links symmetrically arranged one with the other.
lVhile I have described certain construction forms which embody the principles of my invention, it is obvious that other desired changes in arrangementmay be made within the spirit and the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
I claim:
1. A bracelet chain comprising a series of units each comprising inner and outer portions, each having spaced parallel bars extending longitudinally of the bracelet to provide portions of two separately appearing links, the inner bars extending short of the outer bars, and means for hingedly connecting said units together.
2. A bracelet chain comprisinga series of units each comprising spaced parallel bars extending longitudinally of the bracelet, the inner bars extending short of the outer bars, end bars joining both inner and outer bars, and means for hingedly connecting said units together. r
8. A bracelet chain comprising a series of outer links of generally yoke-shape having longitudinally extending bars connected at their ends by cross bars,'an inner link within each outer link of a similar shape and having longitudinally extending bars connected at their ends by cross bars, and means for hingedly connecting a series of outer links together V 4. A' bracelet chain comprising a series of outer links of generally rectangular shape having longitudinally extending bars connected at their ends by cross bars, an inner 4 link within each outer link of a similar shape and having longitudinally extending bars connected at their ends by cross ba'rs, and
ends and connecting members hingedly joining said units, and located in the spaces be tween said pairs of bars.
6. A- bracelet chain comprising a series of units each having outer longitudinally extending bars and inner longitudinally extending bars with cross bars joining the same at their ends and connecting members between the outer and inner bars embracing the cross bars to hingedly join the units together.
7 A bracelet chain comprising a series of units each having outer longitudinally extending bars and inner longitudinally extending bars with cross bars joining the same at their ends, connecting members between the outer and inner bars embracing the cross bars to hingedly join the units together, said end cross bars being offset inwardly between the inner bars, and a member embracing each of said ofiset portions. 7
In testimony whereof I ailix my slgnature.
