\VILLIAM LEIDIG, OF NEYVARK, NEW? JERSEY.
J EWELRY.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 435,068, dated August 26, 1890.
Application filed April 16, 1890. Serial No. 348,201. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, WILLIAM LEIDIG, a citizen of the United States, residing at Newark, in the county of Essex and State of New J ersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Finger-Rings, &c. 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 letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to certain improvements in interchangeable initial letters for fin ger-rings, sleeve-buttons, lockets, scarf and lace pins, and other articles of jewelry.
The object of the invention is to enable the said initial letters to be changed from one article of jewelry to another with greater facility, convenience, and case than by the means heretofore employed and to secure in the device greater durability and strength.
The invention consists in the arrangements and combinations of parts, substantially as will be hereinafter set forth, and finally cmbodied in the claims.
Referring to the accompanying drawings, in which like letters indicate corresponding parts in each of the several figures, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a fingenring having my improvements. Fig. 2 is a perspective View of the ring with the stone removed. Fig. 3 is a perspective view showing the interior of the ring at a point behind the stone. Figs. 4 andv 5 are detail perspective views showing a stone detached from a back plate with which said stone has a sliding relation. Fig. 6 is a rear view of said stone. Fig. 7 is an enlarged section taken centrally through the ring on a plane at right angles to the axis of the shank. Fig. Sis a detail view showing the initial letter, the stone, and the said back plate permanently secured together. Fig. 9 is a section of the same on line y. Fig. 10 is a detail view showing the parts of a certain key adapted to lock the stone and its attachments to the body of the ring or piece of jewelry, and Fig. 11 is a detail sectional perspective showing the bearings for the key in the body or bed-plate, the section being taken atline J0, Fig. 3.
In said drawings, a indicates the bed-plate or body of the ring or piece of jewelry, which is provided on the outer face thereof with a recess or socket 1), formed in any suitable manner and adapted to receive a stone or jewel c, the said recess or jewel-socket being made to conform to the shape of the stone or jewel, so that the surrounding walls or bearings will hold said stone firmly against any lateral movement. The said stone or jewel is provided at the front or convex face thereof with a raised initial letter (Z, suitably cut or otherwise formed of metal or other appropriate material, and on the opposite side'thereof with a back plate 6, which may either be removable from the stone, having a sliding relation thereto, as indicated in Figs. 4 and 5, or have a permanent connection, as indicated in Fig. 9, where the stone is shown to be perforated and the initial letter to be provided with hollow wire rivets f f, which extend through the stone and the back plate and are rivet-ed at the back of the latter, and thus the said parts are held firmly together.
The back plate is provided with an oblong perforation g and inclined bearings h h, and v the body a is provided with a pivotal crosshead or key 1', adapted to extend through said oblong perforation, and when turned to engage said inclined bearings, and thus hold the stone, initial letter, and back plate in firm connection with the socketed or recessed body. The cross-head, which may be made in parts or of one integral piece, is provided with a pivotal shank t", Fig. 10, arranged in a perforation 2' Fig. 7, in the body a, and with a slotted head j, which may resemble an ordinary screw-head. By inserting the stone and back plate in therecess or socket and allow- The initial may be a raised metal letter, or it may be incrusted, or be applied to the stone in any other manner.
In lieu of a letter I may employ any other appropriate ornament.
Having thus described the invention, what I claim as new is- 1. The improved finger ring herein described, combining with the recessed body and removable parts, consisting of a stone and back plate secured thereto, a pivotal shank having a head to engage and hold said removable parts in place, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
2. The combination of a body Cb of an article of jewelry having a recess or socket b, a cross-head pivotally arranged on said body, a stone having a raised initial on the face thereof, and a back plate providing bearings for the cross-head, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
3. In combination with the socketed body having a pivoted cross-head thereon, an initial letter, a stone and back plate riveted together, the latter being provided with an oblong slot and bearings for the cross'head, said parts being arranged and combined substantially as set forth.
4. A finger-ring having a stone socket or recess and a key provided with a pivotal shank, a slotted head, and a head to engage the plate for the stone, said stone having a back plate secured thereto, substantially as set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand this 31st day of March, 1890.
