Description
Dec. 27, 1938. L. B. MULLER ORNAMENTAL DEVICE Filed Nov. 10, 1938 I INVENTOR. Leonora 5. Mu//er ck; ATTORNEYS Patented Dec. 27, 1938 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 4 Claims.
My invention relates to an ornamental device and more particularly to an ornamental device having means for scenting the same.
One of the objects of my invention is to provide an ornamental device in the nature of an article of jewelry such as a brooch pin, earring or pendant which has means for holding a replaceable wad or cartridge which may be scented with any suitable essence.
Another object of my invention is to provide an article of jewelry such as a brooch pin, earring or pendant, said article of jewelry simulating a flower having a calyx, said calyx being perforated and comprising a screen and having an annular recess open at the opposite side and being adapted to receive a filler or cartridge which may be impregnated with a perfume or the like.
Another object of my invention is to provide a simple article of manufacture simulating a flower or the like and having simple fastening means thereon and having a recess therein adapted to receive a scented cartridge or filler.
Other objects of my invention will be set forth in the following description and drawing which illustrates a preferred embodiment thereof, it being understood that the above statement of the objects of my invention is intended generally to explain the same without limiting it in any manner.
Fig. 1 is a front view of an embodiment of my new ornamental device.
Fig. 2 is a sectional view along the line 2-2 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a rear View thereof.
Referring to the drawing, B designates the body portion of my device, simulating a flower and having the petal members 3, leaf members I and the calyx 5. The calyx 5 is shown as consisting of a circular screen having side walls l5 and is held in place in the projecting peripheral wall I! by the projections 4. A perforated sheet may be readily substituted for this screen member. This screen member simulating the calyx of the flower, forms the front wall of the annular recess 5, which extends from the rear of the ornament, said annular recess bevelling outwardly at the forward part to form a wider head portion I 8. Into this recess is inserted the wad or cartridge W which may consist of any suitable material, such as absorbent cotton or the like, which can be impregnated with perfume or any scented liquid. To keep the cartridge W in the recess I6, the circular cover 6 is provided, having the projecting lip 20 and hinged to the body member by means of pin 1. 6 is the cover in opened position, shown in dash lines in Fig. 2. At the lower end of the rear of the body portion B, is the horizontal extension 8, having the vertical upward extension I2 and the lower outer corner H. l Hingedly connected to the upper edge of extension l2 by means of pin 9, is the lower edge of side l3 of the U-shaped clasping member l9. Said U-shaped member I9 is made of a springy or resilient material, so that when the member is swung open, as shown by the broken lines l9 and the sides I 0 and I3 are spread by the extension I2 to It) and I3, there will be a tendency for the member l9 to swing back into the closed position and remain there. This member I9 is not only used for attaching the ornament to the ear or to a portion of the clothing, but also serves the purpose of keeping the cover or lid 6 in a firmly closed position.
My new ornamental device may be made of any suitable material, such as metal, stamped or cast, Bakelite, any plastic or resinous material and may be decorated, painted or enameled in the usual manner. It may be worn as a pendant, earring or brooch by merely adding thereto'any known fastening means which Will adapt the ornament to be worn as such.
I have shown a simulated flower as my preferred embodiment, having a recess adapted to receive only one scented cartridge, but it is quite obvious that other designs might be used to fit the occasion, such as a boutonniere, etc. Further ornamental efiects can be produced by adding precious or semi-precious stones, synthetic stones or rhinestones. A greater part of the face of this article may be studded with such stones. These designs may also contain more than one recess adapted to receive scented cartridges. In this case it might prove much more convenient to replace the hinged recess cover either by a screw in cap or a frictionally-engaging plug or any other such simple closing means.
It should also be noted that the use of a screen or perforated cover in front of the cartridge containing recess serves a twofold purpose; it allows the fragrance of said cartridge to be wafted through the front of the ornament, thus providing great eificiency, and secondly, when the wad has lost its fragrance, additional perfume or any 0 other suitable essence may be easily dropped through the screen or cover without removing the ornament or opening the recess.
I have shown a preferred embodiment of my invention, but it is clear that numerous changes and omissions can be made without departing from its spirit. 7 a
I claim:-
1 An ornamental device of the character described, comprising a body member simulating a flower, said body member having an annular aperture formed therein, the front of said aperture having a perforated cover simulating the calyx of said flower, the rear of said aperture having a removable lid, and means adapted to secure said device to the wearer thereof. a
2. An ornamental device of the character described, comprising a body member simulating a flower, said body member having an aperture 1 formed therein, the front of'said aperture having a screen cover simulating the calyx of said flower, the rear of said aperture 'having a lid hingedly connected to said body member, said aperture being adapted. to house a scented cartridge, and
means adapted to attach said body member to 7 said aperture having a removable lid and means adapted to attach said device'to the wearer thereof. 7
