Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of jewellery. More particularly, the present invention relates to interchangeable jewellery inserts, items for receiving the insert, and connectors for reversibly securing the interchangeable insert within the items.
- an extension for engaging a surface of the receptacle, formed of elastic material coupled to the body and extending outward from two or more points on the periphery of the body, each extension distance being less than 0.33 times the largest dimension of the body, the two or more points on the periphery having at least one angular separation of greater than 30 degrees.
- the extension of the interchangeable insert is a closed continuous circuit along the periphery of the body.
- the extension may be continuous along a portion of the periphery of the body, the portion having end points with an angular separation of greater than 45 degrees.
- a receptacle for receiving an interchangeable jewellery insert.
- the receptacle may be incorporated into any item or any item may be configured or manufactured to comprise a receptacle.
- a jewellery item receptacle for receiving an interchangeable jewellery insert comprising: a base and a sidewall, the base having two opposing points sized to fit at least one dimension of a body of the interchangeable jewellery insert, the sidewall having an inward extension extending towards a central axis of the receptacle, the inward extension of the receptacle sized for deforming an elastically deformable extension that extends outward from the body of the interchangeable jewellery insert; and the receptacle having a surface for frictionally engaging the elastically deformable extension.
- an inward extension of the receptacle is for engaging an elastic extension of an interchangeable insert on a surface of the inward extension that is closest to the base of the receptacle.
- the inward extension may comprise a continuous closed extension or may be comprised of discrete separate components.
- the elastic extension is to be engaged on a surface of the sidewall of the receptacle.
- the surface may be a cavity or groove in the sidewall.
- the surface for engaging the elastic extension is in between an inward extension and the base of the receptacle.
- a sidewall rises from the base of a receptacle to form a continuous and closed sidewall such that the radial cross-section of the sidewall is continuous.
- the sidewall need not be continuous in its radial cross-section.
- an inward extension is continuous along the entire interior surface of the sidewall or an inward extension may comprise separate and discrete components.
- a jewellery grommet receptacle for receiving an interchangeable jewellery insert, the receptacle comprising: a continuous sidewall defining the interior of the receptacle, the sidewall having two open ends, a lid end and a base end, the lid end having a lid flange extending radially outward and an inward extension extending towards a central axis of the receptacle, the inward extension sized for deforming an elastically deformable extension that extends outward from a body of the interchangeable jewellery insert; and the receptacle having a surface for frictionally engaging the elastically deformable extension.

- FIGURES 5A-B show side cross-section views of an interchangeable insert and rubber sleeve comprising a rubber extension in accordance with a further embodiment of the present invention
- FIGURE 7A shows side cross-section view of a grommet having an empty receptacle in accordance with a further embodiment of the present invention
- FIGURE 7B shows an assembled view of the grommet having the interchangeable insert attached within the receptacle in accordance with a further embodiment of the present invention
- FIGURE 7C shows side cross-section view of a grommet with a raised upper sidewall in accordance with a further embodiment of the present invention
- FIGURE 11 shows an example of an insert in accordance with a further embodiment of the invention.
- Figure 1 IB shows another example of an insert in accordance with a further embodiment of the invention.
- a jewellery item has a receptacle or chamber for receiving an interchangeable insert.
- the receptacle comprises a base having two opposing points sized to fit at least one dimension of a body of an interchangeable insert.
- the base may be a closed surface or have an opening.
- the body of the interchangeable insert will have at least one dimension sized to fit within the receptacle of a jewellery item. Having at least one dimension of the body of the insert sized to fit within opposing points on the base of the receptacle helps to achieve a secure fit when an extension formed of elastic material extends from the body and engages a base of the receptacle, a sidewall of the receptacle, or both the base and the sidewall.
- a jewellery item receptacle will typically have a base and a sidewall.
- the base may be closed or may have an opening such that a finger, pen or other rod like element may be inserted through the opening to push out an interchangeable insert that has been inserted within the receptacle.
- an interchangeable insert is pushed into a receptacle and pushed out of the receptacle a convenient opening in the base of the receptacle is useful.
- an opening in the base of the receptacle is not necessary.
- the body of an interchangeable insert may be any shape provided that it has at least one dimension that is sized to fit within opposing points of a base of a jewellery item receptacle or within opposing points of a sidewall in examples where such opposing sidewalls are provided.
- the body shape may be spherical, pyramidal, cubic, tubular, cylindrical, toroid, spiral, tetrahedral, polyhedral, helical, ziggurat, inverted ziggurat, conical, prismatic or any combination thereof.
- the interior of the cavity may be larger than the opening to allow the portion of the elastic extension that has pushed through the cavity opening to at least partially regain its form, hi another example the sidewall alone without any inward extension is sized to deform an elastic extension and a groove or a channel in the sidewall provides a surface for the elastic extension to at least partially regain its form and achieve a secure fit.
- extension distance is an important parameter to consider in order to achieve production of an interchangeable insert that can be easily stored without the need for any protective casing.
- extension distance is meant the shortest normal vector distance from a point on the periphery of the body to the outer edge of the elastic material. Extension distance may be proportional to the body of the interchangeable insert. As such extension distance can be larger, in absolute terms, with a larger body, and smaller with a smaller body. Typically, an extension distance of greater than 1 times the largest dimension of the body of an interchangeable insert is not preferred as the extension dominates the body and becomes unwieldy in terms of storage. An extension distance of less than 0.5 times or 0.4 times the largest dimension of the body is more convenient for storage purposes.
- the extension distance may also be proportional to the surface cross-section of the extension.
- surface cross-section is meant a cross- section of an extension at the surface of the body of an interchangeable jewellery insert, the cross-section being parallel and coincident with any curve or surface of the body.
- an interchangeable insert is coupled to a sleeve and an elastic extension extends from the sleeve, then the surface cross-section is determined at a curve or surface of the sleeve.
- an extension distance of greater than 4 times the largest dimension of the surface cross-section is not preferred as this results in an overly bendable extension that is susceptible to breaking down with repeated attachment and detachment of an interchangeable insert.
- an extension will preferably extend outward from two or more points on the periphery of the body of an interchangeable insert, with the two or more points having an angular separation of at least 30 degrees.
- angular separation is meant the internal angle formed by lines joining the centroid or center of gravity of a body of an interchangeable insert with two points on the periphery of the body of the insert. As the internal angle is used to determine angular separation, angular separation may range from 0 degrees to 180 degrees.
- the grommet comprises a sidewall that defines an interior cylinder having two open ends, a lid end and a base end. At the lid end the sidewall extends towards a central axis to form an inward extension and then folds back to extend radially outward to form a lid flange.
- the portion of the sidewall closest (66) to the base end (64) is folded radially outward to form a base flange that engages a retaining washer (not shown) with the grommet being held within the article by opposing forces of the retaining washer and Hd flange (80).
- Figure 9A shows a side perspective views of a ring (92) having an empty receptacle (94) and Figure 9B shows an interchangeable insert (90) that may be detachably attached within the receptacle (94).
- the interchangeable insert (90) is a cubic body with the shaft (98) of the body having a cube shaped elastic extension (100) extending therefrom and the base (96) of the body having a spike-like elastic extension (102) extending therefrom.
- the receptacle (94) has a base (106) and sidewall (108) that is sized to receive the interchangeable insert (90).
- Figure 1 IA shows an example of an insert, where the shaft (222) is made of elastic material such as rubber.
- the shaft (222) may have a first end (224) with a larger diameter for engaging a receptacle.
- the shaft may have a second end (226) which is formed to hold a button cap (228).
- Figure 1 IB shows another example where the shaft 230 is made of elastic material , and has an enlarged end (232).
- the shaft may be bound to a button cap (234) by bonding martial, for example but not limited to, glue.
- Figure 12 shows an example of a two-piece button that has a first piece (122) that comprises a base (121) and a first portion of a sidewall (123) extending from the base and a second piece (120) in the form of a button cap that comprises a second portion of the sidewall (125) and an opening (127) sized to deform an elastically deformable extension of an interchangeable insert. More particularly, the sidewall (125) has an inward extension (126) extending towards a central axis of the receptacle.
- the inward extension (126) of the receptacle is sized for deforming the elastic extension of an interchangeable insert with the elastic extension at least partially regaining its form after passing by the inward extension (126) and frictionally engaging a surface of the sidewall (123) that is in between the inward extension (126) and the base (121) of the receptacle.
- the second portion of the sidewall (125) may be a raised sidewall (125a) that is sized to fit a dimension of the body of an interchangeable jewellery insert that is larger than the opening (127) defined by the inward extension (126), thereby reducing the possibility that the insert is snagged or accidentally dislodged.
- the inward extension (136) of the receptacle is sized for deforming the elastic extension of an interchangeable insert with the elastic extension at least partially regaining its form after passing by the inward extension (136) and frictionally engaging a surface of the sidewall (133) that is in between the inward extension (136) and the base (131) of the receptacle.
- the second portion of the sidewall (135) may be a raised sidewall that is sized to fit a dimension of the body of an interchangeable jewellery insert that is larger than the opening (137) defined by the inward extension (136), thereby reducing the possibility that the insert is snagged or accidentally dislodged.
- a rivet-type fastener (138) engages an opening in the base (131) to attach the button to clothing or other articles or items.
- the fastener (138) has a central axial opening, as do the first, second and third pieces of the button receptacle.
- a rod like instrument may be inserted through the central opening of the fastener (138) to remove an interchangeable insert from the button receptacle.
- FIG. 13D shows another example of a button receptacle.
- This button receptacle has a peripheral opening (146) through which a rod-like instrument may be inserted to remove an interchangeable insert.
- the peripheral opening may be in the first piece or in the first piece and the second piece. All citations are hereby incorporated by reference.
