Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein längenveränderliches Kettenelement, insbesondere für Schmuckketten.The invention relates to a variable-length chain element, in particular for jewelry chains.

Längenveränderliche Kettenelemente für Schmuckketten sind seit langem bekannt. Sie werden eingesetzt, um die Schmuckketten zum Abstreifen über die Hand bei Kettenarmbändern, bzw. über den Kopf bei Halsketten, zu verlängern. Üblicherweise geschieht dies durch Verwendung von längselastischen Kettenelementen, die sich unter Einwirkung einer in Längsrichtung der Kette wirkenden Kraft verlängern und wieder die ursprüngliche Länge einnehmen sobald die Kraftwirkung aufhört. Eine derartige Ausführung ist z. B. aus der DE-PS 262 710 bekannt. Diese Bauweise hat jedoch Nachteile. So ist das Abstreifen, insbesondere bei Halsketten, mühsam, da die Kette sowohl mit beiden Händen gedehnt werden muß, wobei sie ihre, das Abstreifen erleichternde runde Form verliert, als auch über den Kopf bewegt werden muß. Außerdem haben solche Ketten immer nur eine bestimmte, bei der Herstellung fest vorgegebene Kettenlänge, die im allgemeinen nur vom Fachmann geändert werden kann.Length-variable chain elements for jewelry chains have been known for a long time. They are used to extend the jewelry chains for stripping over the hand for chain bracelets, or over the head for necklaces. This is usually done by using longitudinally elastic chain elements, which extend under the action of a force acting in the longitudinal direction of the chain and return to their original length as soon as the force effect ceases. Such an embodiment is e.g. B. from DE-PS 262 710 known. However, this design has disadvantages. For example, stripping, especially with necklaces, is tedious, since the chain must be stretched with both hands, losing its round shape, which makes stripping easier, and must also be moved over the head. In addition, such chains always have only a certain chain length which is predetermined during production and which can generally only be changed by a person skilled in the art.

Die GB-A-4 962/1912 beschreibt eine Schmuckkette mit elastisch längenveränderlichen Kettenelementen. Bei dieser Schmuckkette sind Hülsen vorgesehen, in denen Spiralfedern eingeschlossen sind. Wird eine Zugkraft auf diese Kettenelemente aufgebracht, so wird die Kette länger, diese Längenänderung geht jedoch infolge der elastischen Rückstellkräfte der Spiralfedern zurück, sobald die Zugkraft nicht mehr wirkt.GB-A-4 962/1912 describes a jewelry chain with chain elements that are elastically variable in length. This jewelry chain includes sleeves in which spiral springs are enclosed. If a tensile force is applied to these chain elements, the chain becomes longer, but this change in length is reduced due to the elastic restoring forces of the coil springs as soon as the tensile force no longer acts.

Die DE-C 169 203 zeigt eine ziehbare Kette für Zieharmbänder und dergleichen, bei der federnde Spangen und nicht federnde Zwischenglieder verwendet werden. Die Spangen weisen Arme auf, deren Ende nach innen eingebogen sind, und die zwischen Stiften geführt werden, die an den nicht elastischen Zwischengliedern sitzen. Die federnden Spangen werden dazu verwendet, das Zurückgehen der Glieder in ihre Ruhelage zu ermöglichen.DE-C 169 203 shows a pullable chain for pulling bracelets and the like, in which resilient clasps and non-resilient intermediate links are used. The clips have arms, the ends of which are bent inwards and which are guided between pins which are seated on the non-elastic intermediate members. The spring clips are used to allow the limbs to return to their rest position.

Die DE-C 634 635 zeigt eine Halskette, die zu einem Armband verkürzt werden kann. Dazu sind Schubhülsen vorgesehen, in die die Kettenglieder eingeschoben werden können. Dadurch wird die Kette zum Armband versteift und die Kettenelemente « verschwinden in den Schubhülsen.DE-C 634 635 shows a necklace that can be shortened into a bracelet. Push sleeves are provided for this purpose, into which the chain links can be inserted. This stiffens the chain into a bracelet and the chain elements «disappear into the push sleeves.

Die vorliegende Erfindung stellt sich die Aufgabe, ein längenveränderliches Kettenelement der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, welches eine Längenveränderung der Schmuckkette ermöglicht, so daß die Kette einerseits mit unterschiedlicher Länge getragen werden kann und andererseits das Abstreifen erleichtert wird.The present invention has for its object to provide a variable-length chain element of the type mentioned, which allows a change in length of the jewelry chain, so that the chain can be worn on the one hand with different lengths and on the other hand the stripping is facilitated.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch den Gegenstand des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.This object is achieved according to the invention by the subject matter of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments of the invention are the subject of the dependent claims.

Gegenüber den bekannten längenveränderlichen Kettenelementen bietet die erfindungsgemäße Lösung eine Reihe von Vorteilen. So kann die Länge der Kette, je nach Ausführungsform, kontinuierlich oder diskontinuierlich verändert werden, ohne daß elastische Rückstellkräfte auftreten. Dadurch wird zum einen das Abstreifen der Kette erleichtert, zum anderen ist es möglich, die Kettenlänge zu verändern, um sie z. B. der jeweiligen Kleidung oder bestimmten modischen Erfordernissen anzupassen. Des weiteren ist es möglich, das längenveränderliche Kettenelement technisch so auszuführen, daß es als ästhetisch gestaltendes Element in eine Schmuckkette integriert werden kann.Compared to the known variable-length chain elements, the solution according to the invention offers a number of advantages. Depending on the embodiment, the length of the chain can be changed continuously or discontinuously without elastic restoring forces occurring. This makes stripping the chain easier, on the other hand, it is possible to change the chain length to z. B. to adapt to the respective clothing or certain fashion needs. Furthermore, it is possible to technically design the variable-length chain element so that it can be integrated as an aesthetically designing element in a jewelry chain.

Eine erste Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist in Fig. 1 dargestellt. Die seitlichen Vertiefungen 3 des ersten Kettengliedes 1 sind als Schlitz ausgeführt wie in Fig. 2 ersichtlich ist. In diesen seitlichen Vertiefungen wird das in diesem Fall U-förmig gebogene zweite Kettenglied 2 geführt. Die Bohrungen 4 und 5 dienen dazu, die Kettenglieder mit der übrigen Kette zu verbinden. In der Endstellung, d. h. bei der größtmöglichen Verlängerung werden die Elemente durch den quer zum Kettenelement angeordneten Steg 6 gehalten. Dieser Steg hat einen kreisförmigen Querschnitt und ist auf der einen Seite 6' fest eingefaßt, auf der anderen Seite 6" wird er in eine Schiebepassung geführt, so daß das elastische Aufspreizen des zweiten Kettenelements erleichtert wird. Um das Element in geschlossener Stellung zu halten, ist an einer Seite des Kettenelements ein Vorsprung 7 angeordnet (siehe Fig. 3), über den das Kettenglied 2 unter elastischer Aufspreizung geschoben wird, bis das Kettenglied 2 mit der Vertiefung 8 auf dem Vorsprung 7 einrastet und dadurch festgehalten wird. Durch die Anordnung mehrerer solcher Vorsprünge ist es möglich, das Kettenelement in verschiedenen Stellungen einrasten zu lassen. Ein weiteres Ausführungsbeispiel ist in Fig. 4 dargestellt. Das erste Kettenglied 10 ist, wie Fig. 5 zeigt, mit geschlossenem Querschnitt ausgeführt. Das zweite Kettenglied 11 ist, wie beim vorherigen Ausführungsbeispiel, U-förmig gestaltet, wobei die Öffnung in Richtung auf das erste Kettenglied hinweist. Dadurch ist es möglich, das Kettenelement zum Öffnen der Kette zu teilen. Zum Halten des Elementes in geschlossener Stellung werden ein oder mehrere Vorsprünge an einem der Kettenglieder vorgesehen, die mit entsprechenden Vertiefungen am anderen Kettenglied zusammenwirken.A first embodiment of the invention is shown in FIG. 1. The lateral depressions 3 of the first chain link 1 are designed as a slot, as can be seen in FIG. 2. The second chain link 2, which is bent in a U-shape in this case, is guided in these lateral depressions. The holes 4 and 5 serve to connect the chain links to the rest of the chain. In the end position, ie with the greatest possible extension, the elements are held by the web 6 arranged transversely to the chain element. This web has a circular cross section and is firmly enclosed on one side 6 ', on the other side 6 "it is guided into a sliding fit so that the elastic spreading of the second chain element is facilitated. In order to keep the element in the closed position, a projection 7 is arranged on one side of the chain element (see FIG. 3), over which the chain link 2 is pushed with elastic spreading, until the chain link 2 engages with the recess 8 on the projection 7 and is thereby held in place Such projections make it possible to snap the chain element into different positions, a further exemplary embodiment is shown in Fig. 4. The first chain link 10, as shown in Fig. 5, is designed with a closed cross-section previous embodiment, U-för mig designed, with the opening pointing towards the first chain link. This makes it possible to split the chain element to open the chain. To hold the element in the closed position, one or more projections are provided on one of the chain links, which cooperate with corresponding depressions on the other chain link.

Ein weiteres Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung zeigen die Fig. 6 und 7. Hier sind beide Kettenglieder 20, 21, die das längenveränderliche Kettenelement bilden, U-förmig gestaltet und mit jeweils einem in Querrichtung angeordneten Stef 23, 24 versehen, die das Kettenelement bei größtmöglicher Verlängerung sichern. In allen anderen Stellungen wird ein unbeabsichtigtes Verschieben der Kettenglieder gegeneinander durch Reibschluß verhindert. Dadurch kann das Element zwischen der ganz geöffneten und der ganz geschlossenen Stellung in beliebig vielen Zwischenstellungen gehalten werden. In den beiden Kettengliedern 20, 21 kann eine Ausnehmung 22 vorgesehen werden um das Kettenglied mit weiteren Kettengliedern zu verbinden, deren Materialquerschnitt größer als der Abstand der Schenkel des Kettengliedes 20, 21 ist.Another embodiment of the invention is shown in FIGS. 6 and 7. Here, both chain links 20, 21, which form the variable-length chain element, are U-shaped and each provided with a transversely arranged Stef 23, 24, which the chain element with the greatest possible extension to back up. In all other positions, unintentional displacement of the chain links against one another is prevented by friction. As a result, the element can be held in any number of intermediate positions between the fully open and the fully closed position. A recess 22 can be provided in the two chain links 20, 21 in order to connect the chain link to further chain links, the material cross section of which is greater than the distance between the legs of the chain link 20, 21.

Das längenveränderliche Kettenelement kann, bei Verwendung innerhalb einer Schmuckkette, aus allen im Schmuckbereich üblichen Werkstoffen gefertigt werden. Dazu gehören z. B. nicht rostender Stahl und silber-, gold-, platin- und titanhaltige Werkstoffe. Des weiteren ist es auch möglich, das längenveränderliche Kettenelement aus zwei verschiedenen Werkstoffen zu fertigen.The length-adjustable chain element can, if used within a jewelry chain, be made from all materials common in the jewelry field. These include e.g. B. stainless steel and materials containing silver, gold, platinum and titanium. Furthermore, it is also possible to manufacture the variable-length chain element from two different materials.

Die technische Ausgestaltung des längenveränderlichen Kettenelementes erlaubt es, das Element in vorteilhafter Weise den ästhetischen Erfordemissen der Schmuckherstellung anzupassen. Es ist deshalb möglich, eine Schmuckkette aus mehreren dieser längenveränderlichen Kettenelemente auszuführen. Dabei können auch unterschiedliche der genannten Ausführungsformen innerhalb einer Kette miteinander kombiniert werden.The technical design of the variable-length chain element allows the element to be advantageously adapted to the aesthetic requirements of jewelry production. It is therefore possible to make a jewelry chain from several of these variable-length chain elements. Different of the above-mentioned embodiments can also be combined with one another within a chain.
