Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Schmuckstück, z.B. Schmuckring, Ohrring, Brosche oder Kette, das zumindest ein Tragelement mit einem Befestigungsstift und ein an diesem lösbar befestigtes Schmuckelement umfaßt, das eine Öffnung aufweist, durch die der Befestigungsstift hindurchragt, wobei der Befestigungsstift an seinem sichtbar freiliegenden Ende eine kopfartige Erweiterung aufweist.The present invention relates to a piece of jewelry, e.g. Jewelry ring, earring, Brooch or chain that has at least one supporting element with a fastening pin and one on this releasably attached jewelry element having an opening, through which the fastening pin protrudes, the fastening pin being visible on it exposed end has a head-like extension.

Derartige Schmuckstücke sind aus dem Stand der Technik bekannt. Das schweizer Patent Nr. 414 229 offenbart ein Schmuckstück, dem ein zusätzlicher Schmuckkörper zum wahlweisen Anstecken zugeordnet ist. Das Schmuckstück ist dabei als Schmuckring ausgeführt, der einen fest am Ring angebrachten ersten Schmuckkörper aufweist. An diesem ersten Schmuckkörper kann von der Ringinnenseite her ein zusätzlicher Schmuckkörper angesteckt werden. Dabei ist von Nachteil, daß der zusätzliche Schmuckkörper beim Tragen des Schmuckstückes nicht vom Schmuckstück gelöst werden kann. Der Schmuckring muß also zum Auswechseln des zusätzlichen Schmuckkörpers vom Finger abgenommen werden. Ein weiterer Nachteil ist, daß der zusätzliche Schmuckkörper an den Ring mit dem ersten Schmuckkörper genau angepaßt sein muß, d.h. für einen Schmuckring gibt es immer nur genau einen passenden zusätzlichen Schmuckkörper. Eine vielseitige Verwendbarkeit ist damit nicht gegeben.Such pieces of jewelry are known from the prior art. The Swiss Patent No. 414 229 discloses a piece of jewelry that has an additional jewelry body is assigned for optional plugging. The piece of jewelry is as Jewelry ring executed, the first jewelry body fixedly attached to the ring having. This first piece of jewelry can be seen from the inside of the ring additional jewelry body can be infected. It is disadvantageous that the additional jewelry body when wearing the piece of jewelry not from the piece of jewelry can be solved. The jewelry ring must therefore be to replace the additional Jewelry body can be removed from the finger. Another disadvantage is that the additional jewelry body precisely matched to the ring with the first jewelry body must be, i.e. there is always only one matching one for a jewelry ring additional decorative body.

Zu diesem Zweck weist der Fingerring einen pilzförmigen Körper auf, auf den nach Art eines Druckknopfes verschiedene Ziereinsätze aufgedrückt werden können. Die Ziereinsätze weisen dabei geeignete Ausnehmungen auf, in die der pilzförmige Körper des Fingerringes eingedrückt wird, so daß der Ziereinsatz den pilzförmigen Körper vollständig umschließt. Der Nachteil der in der Offenlegungsschrift beschriebenen Ausführungsform ist, daß der Ziereinsatz unter Verwendung von Halteklammern für den Schmuckstein und von Federspangen zur Befestigung an dem pilzförmigen Körper sehr kompliziert aufgebaut ist, wodurch die Herstellung aufwendig und teuer ist. Weiterhin ist die Lebensdauer dieses Schmuckartikels sehr begrenzt, da die Federspangen zur Befestigung an dem pilzförmigen Körper bei häufigem Gebrauch ausleiern oder spröde werden und abbrechen können.DE-OS-23 06 657 discloses a jewelry article in the form of a finger ring, to which various decorative inserts can be attached. For this purpose points the finger ring on a mushroom-shaped body, on the type of a push button different decorative inserts can be pressed on. The decorative inserts show suitable recesses into which the mushroom-shaped body of the finger ring is pressed so that the decorative insert completely the mushroom-shaped body encloses. The disadvantage of that described in the published patent application Embodiment is that the decorative insert using holding clips for the gem and spring clips for attachment to the mushroom-shaped body is very complicated, which makes the production complex and expensive. Furthermore, the lifespan of this jewelry item is very limited because the Spring clips for attachment to the mushroom-shaped body with frequent use wear out or become brittle and break off.
