Description

Aktuell gibt es kein Produkt, welches der Erfindung ähnelt. Aus dem Stand der Technik bekannt geworden ist nur das Objekt der Erfindung, der Schmuckkarabinerverschluss, d.h. ein Karabinerverschluss für Schmuck. Aus dem US 2 406 060 A ist eine Haarnadel-Aufspreizvorrichtung bekannt geworden.There is currently no product similar to the invention. Only the object of the invention, the jewelry lobster clasp, ie a lobster clasp for jewelry, has become known from the prior art.

Der erfindungsgemäße Öffner für einen Schmuckkarabinerverschluss ist im Schutzanspruch 1 definiert.The opener according to the invention for a jewelry lobster clasp is defined in claim 1.

Die vorliegende Erfindung umfasst die Erkenntnis, dass kleine Karabinerverschlüsse, welche bei Ketten, Armbändern oder ähnlichem Schmuck zur Anwendung kommen, teilweise schwierig zu bedienen sind. Selbst bei guten Voraussetzungen (normal-kurze Fingernägel, gute Fingerfertigkeit, keine Sehschwächen etc.) ist das An- oder Ablegen von Schmuck, welcher über einen Karabinerverschluss verfügt, anspruchsvoll. Ist eine Person aufgrund von sehr langen/kurzen Fingernägeln in ihrer manuellen Fertigkeit eingeschränkt oder weist andere Beeinträchtigungen für das Bedienen von kleinen Karabinern auf, gestaltet sich das An- oder Ablegen von Schmuck sehr schwierig bis unmöglich. Folglich kann dieser Vorgang sehr zeitintensiv werden, im schlimmsten Fall wird Hilfe von anderen Personen benötigt.The present invention includes the knowledge that small lobster clasps, which are used in chains, bracelets or similar jewelry, are sometimes difficult to operate. Even with good prerequisites (normally short fingernails, good dexterity, no visual impairments, etc.), putting on or taking off jewelry that has a lobster clasp is challenging. If a person is limited in their manual skills due to very long/short fingernails or has other impairments for operating small carabiners, it is very difficult if not impossible to put on or take off jewelry. As a result, this process can become very time-consuming, and in the worst case, help from other people is required.

Ein Vorteil der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt insbesondere darin, dass die aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Schmuckkarabinerverschlüsse mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Öffner sehr leicht zu öffnen sind. Insbesondere ermöglicht die vorliegende Erfindung ein Bedienen (Öffnen oder Schließen) von kleinen Karabinerverschlüssen für Schmuck, wie etwa einer Halskette.An advantage of the present invention lies in particular in the fact that the jewelry carabiner clasps known from the prior art can be opened very easily with the opener according to the invention. In particular, the present invention enables manipulation (opening or closing) of small lobster clasps for jewelry such as a necklace.

Eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform der Erfindung zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass der Ring mittels einer Öffnung an einer Oberseite des Rings an verschiedene Fingergrößen anpassbar ist.A preferred embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the ring can be adapted to different finger sizes by means of an opening on an upper side of the ring.

Eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform der Erfindung zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass eine Führungsschiene an der Unterseite des Stegs und Rings den Schnappverschluss des Karabiners zum Loch am Ende des Stegs leiten kann.A preferred embodiment of the invention is characterized in that a guide rail on the underside of the bar and ring can direct the snap of the carabiner to the hole at the end of the bar.

Eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform der Erfindung zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass der Steg bis zum Ende der Fingerkuppe reicht und der mit dem Steg verbundene Ring den Fingernagel nicht berühren muss.A preferred embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the bridge extends to the end of the fingertip and the ring connected to the bridge does not have to touch the fingernail.

Weitere bevorzugte Ausführungsformen sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben. Eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform der Erfindung wird nun anhand der Zeichnung beschrieben.

Figur 1 zeigt eine perspektivische Ansicht einer Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemäßen Öffners. Der erfindungsgemäße Öffner 8 besteht aus einem Ring 5, welcher einen Steg 3 besitzt, an dessen Ende ein Loch 1 vorhanden ist. Der Öffner 8 gemäß der in Figur 1 dargestellten Ausführungsform ermöglicht somit vorteilhaft ein Öffnen und Schließen von kleinen Karabinerverschlüssen 12 mit Hilfe des Lochs 1 am Ende des Stegs 3, welcher den an der Oberseite geöffneten Ring 5 mündet. Für die Führung des meist federunterstützten Schnappverschlusses 11 befindet sich eine Führungsschiene 4 mittig vom Steg 3 und verläuft vom Loch 1 bis zum Ende des Rings 5. Bei der Verwendung wird der Öffner 8 auf das erste Fingerglied 7 bis hinter den Nagel 6 geschoben (Figur 4), passt sich mittels der Öffnung 2 an der Ringoberseite dem Fingerdurchmesser an, und der Steg 3 schließt an der Fingerkuppe ab (Figur 3). Mittels der Führungsschiene kann nun der meist federunterstützte Schnappverschluss 11 zum Loch 1 am Ende des Stegs 3 geleitet und in dieses eingeführt werden (Figur 5). In dieser Position kann durch Ziehen 9 oder Schieben 10 der Verschluss 11 geöffnet oder geschlossen werden, während weiterhin etwas Druck auf den Karabiner 12 ausgeübt wird. figure 1 shows a perspective view of an embodiment of the opener according to the invention. The opener 8 according to the invention consists of a ring 5, which has a web 3, at the end of which a hole 1 is present. The opener 8 according to in figure 1 The embodiment shown thus advantageously enables opening and closing of small lobster clasps 12 with the aid of the hole 1 at the end of the web 3, which opens out to the ring 5, which is open at the top. A guide rail 4 is located in the middle of the web 3 and runs from the hole 1 to the end of the ring 5 to guide the mostly spring-loaded snap closure 11. figure 4 ), adapts to the finger diameter by means of the opening 2 on the top of the ring, and the bar 3 ends at the fingertip ( figure 3 ). By means of the guide rail, the usually spring-supported snap lock 11 can now be guided to the hole 1 at the end of the web 3 and inserted into it ( figure 5 ). In this position, the slide 11 can be opened or closed by pulling 9 or pushing 10 while still applying some pressure to the carabiner 12.
