JOSEPH L. HERZOG, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
JEWELRY.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 6, 1909.
Application led November 11, 1908. Serial No. 462,084.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOSEPH L. HERZOG, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of New York, borough of Manhattan, in the county of New York and State of New York, have made and invented certain new and useful improvements in Jewelry, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to an improvement in articles of jewelry, and more particularly to such as comprise in part letters or ornaments, so made that they will be interchangeable, and when properly arranged present the appearance of being' made, formed, out, stamped or otherwise produced from a single piece of metal, and which shall be applicable for use on chatelaine bags, leather goods, buckles, or which may be worn as a brooch, watch fob or charm, and for other like purposes.
A further object is to so construct the interchangeable individual letters or ornaments that they may be easily and readily iitted or locked together, and this without any cutting or fitting on the part of the retail dealer who is thus enabled to arrange the letters or ornaments into monograms to suit the taste or desire of the purchaser.
lv/Vith these and other ends in view, the invention consists in certain novel features of construction and combinations of parts, as will be hereinafter fully described and pointed out in the claims.
ln the accompanying drawings Figure 1 is a view of several letters constructed in accordance with my invention, the same being locked together. Fig. 2 is a view of the reverse side thereof. Fig. 3 is a view of' the rear face of one of the individual letters. Fig. 4 is an edge view thereof. Fig. 5 is a sectional view taken on the line 5 5 of Fig. 2. Fig. 6 is a view of the rear side of the letters showing a modified form of fastening or locking means. Fig. 7 is a rear view of one of the letters shown in Fig. G. Fig. S is a sectional view taken on the line SS of Fig 6. Fig. 9 shows another method of locking the letters together, and Fig. 10 a sectional view taken on the line 10h10 of Fig. 9. Fig. 11 shows another modified forni of locking means. Fig. 12 is a sectional view taken on the line 12-12 of Fig. 11, and Fig. 13 a sectional view taken on the line 13-13 of Fig. 11. Fig. 14 shows another modified form of fastening means, and Fig. 15 an enlarged view of said means. Fig. 16 is a sectional view taken on the line 16-16 of Fig. 15, and Fig'. 17 shows a sectional view`of still another modified forni of fastening means.
Referring to the drawings, 18 represents letters preferably of skeleton and script type, stamped, cut or otherwise formed from sheet metal, and having such outline as will cause said letters when arranged in a horizontal line, to contact at two or more points, and which when assembled and locked together, as hereinafter described, will present the appearance, as illustrated in Fig. 1, of being made from a single sheet or piece of metal.
ris illustrated in F ig. 2 of the drawings, those parts of the letters which contact, are provided with the lugs 19, soldered or otherwise secured to the letters or formed integral therewith, these lugs being provided with a longitudinal opening through the same for the reception of a pin or other locking means, as hereinafter described.
As illustrated in the several Vfigures of the drawings, when the letters are properly arranged in a horizontal line, the ends of these lugs contact, the openings therein registering with each other, and through which openings is passed a pin 2O provided on one end with a suitably shaped head 21, which as clearly illustrated in Fig. 5, bears against the end of the lug 19 to assist in preventing said pin from becoming accidentally detached. ln each of the lugs 19 is formed an opening 22, for the reception of a screw 23, this screw being tapped into an opening formed in the pin near the end which is not provided with a head, the effect being to hold the pin tightly in the two adjacent lugs and prevent its accidental detachment therefrom, whereby to securely hold the contacting letters in their proper relative positions. In order that the pin may be properly entered in the lugs, those portions of the letters in line with the latter are grooved or recessed, as illustrated at 24. Instead of providing the contacting portions of the letters with the lugs, as above described, they may be formed as illustrated in Figs. 6, 7 and 8, that is, the contacting portion of each letter may be provided with a semi-circular threaded post 25, which when the letters are properly assembled, contact with each other to form a round or circular post, and over which is fitted the internally threaded sleeve 2G. In the instances above referred to, each letter is shown to contact at two points between its upper and lower ends with the adjacent letter. lf desired, however, the letters may be formed to contact at three points, as illustrated in Fig. 9, that is near their upper ends, at their centers, and near their lower ends. ln such instance l prefer to form the central contacting portions of the letters with the sectional post 27, a sleeve 2S being threaded thereon to hold the parts in position. At the upper and lower contacting ends, the one letter may be provided with a pin 2Q adapted to lit in a corresponding recess formed in the adjacent letter, these letters being thereby held at their ends by means of pins, and at their center by the sectional threaded post.
ln Figs. 1l, 12 and i3, l have illustrated another method of fastening the letters together their contacting points. In the adjoining portions of each letter is formed an undercut groove, in which is litted a lrey 30 provided with beveled edges7 one or more screws 3l passing through said lrey and tapped into the letters for the purpose oi retaining the parts in position and preventing their accidental separation.
ln Figs. le, l5 and l, l have shown the contacting portions of the letters provided with the slitted lugs 32, through which passes a pin 33, one end 34 thereof being headed, and the opposite end 35A bent or turned downwardly. ln this instance when the parts are assembled, the bent end of the pin passes through the slit or slot 36 formed in the lugs 32, after which the bent end is turned downwardly, in order to prevent the same from being accidentally pulled out or removed from the adjacent contacting lugs. Again, if desired, as illustrated in Fig. 17, the contacting portions of the letters may be formed with the lugs S7, internally threaded to receive the threaded pin 3S.
lt will be seen in all the above instances, that the letters are interchangeable, are formed to contact at two or more points or parts, the contacting or adjoining portions being detachably secured together to prevent their accidental separation and to securely and rigidly lool; them in a horizontal line. By these means, the retail dealer is enabled without any cutting or fitting, to assemble such letters or ornaments as he may desire, to make up a monogram, fob or charm having all the appearances of an actlcle made of a single piece of metal.
Having fully described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. An article of the character described comprising interchangeable outline letters of sheet-metal, all of which are constructed to contact with each other between their upper and lower ends when assembled in horizontal line, and co-acting fasteners located on the back of said letters whereby to lock the same together at their contacting points, substantially as described.
2. The combination with interchangeable outline letters of sheet-metal, each constructed with such an outline that it will contact with the adjacent one between the upper and lower ends when assembled in a hori- Zontal line, of co-acting fasteners on the baclr of the letters for securing the adjacent letters together at the contacting points, substantially as described.
3. The combination with interchangeable outline letters ot' sheet-netal, each having such an outline as will cause it to contact with the adjacent letters at two points between their upper and lower ends, said letters being provided on their rear surfaces at their contacting points with registering lugs, of a pin passing through said registering lugs whereby to detachably hold said letters in their proper relative positions, substantially as described.
4. The combination with interchangeable outline letters of sheet-metal, each having such an outline as will cause it to contact with the adjacent letter at two points between its upper and lower ends, said letters being provided on their rear surfaces with the registering lugs at their points of contact, of headed pin passing through said registering lugs, and a screw passing through one of said lugs and threaded into said pin whereby to hold the several letters in'their proper relative positions, substantially as described.
Signed at New York, borough oi' Manhattan, in the county of New York, and State of New York, this 9th day of November, A. D. 1908.
