Definitions

  • the present invention falls within the field of jewelry and jewelry and relates to a set of jewelry and / or jewelry, and on a replacement structure of jewelry and / or jewelry of small dimensions not requiring tools exterior for opening and closing
  • ornamental accessories In the field of jewelry and/or jewelry, it is known to suspend one or more ornamental accessories from an article of jewelry and/or jewelry. These ornamental accessories are typically pendants or “Charms”, an Anglo-Saxon term used to designate an ornamental article that is suspended from a necklace, a bracelet, a ring or an earring.
  • Such ornamental accessories are intended to modify the appearance of the item of jewelry and/or jewelry. Indeed, these accessories are mounted interchangeably on the article of jewelery and/or jewellery, which makes it possible to personalize such an article at will.
  • Pendants to be attached to items of jewelry and/or jewelry comprise a fastening device typically consisting of a clasp, for example spring-loaded, which is temporarily fixed to the item of jewelry and/or jewelry.
  • one or more links should be sized so as to allow the spring clasp of the pendant to pass.
  • This particular sizing can be unattractive, in particular when the links forming the chain of the item of jewelery on which the pendant is to be mounted have a dimension different from that required to allow the clasp of the pendant to pass.
  • the risk of detachment between the pendant and the article of jewelery and/or jewelery is significant, in particular when the pendant is attached to a ring or a bracelet, due to the frequent stress on the clasp due to gestures everyday.
  • the general aesthetics of the jewelery and/or jewelery set is improved compared to the prior art.
  • the set of jewelery and/or jewelery obtained within the scope of the present invention has a relatively low manufacturing cost compared to certain devices of the prior art.
  • the fixing device according to the invention is of relatively small size.
  • the assembly comprises a non-replaceable part which carries the complex mechanical structure, and a replaceable part without a complex mechanical structure.
  • the present invention is also implemented when the first article of jewelery and/or jewelery is a necklace, an earring or a bracelet.
  • the term “set” designates either a set of jewelry or a set of jewelry or a set of jewelry and jewelry.
  • article designates without distinction an article of jewelry or an article of jewelry or an article of jewelry and jewelry.
  • the set 1 comprises the first article 3, here a ring, on which is fixed a second article 7, here formed by a pendant 9 or “Charm”.
  • the fixing of the pendant 9 on the ring 5 is obtained by a fixing device 11 designed to allow the fixing of the pendant 9 on the ring 5, in a removable manner.
  • the fixing device 11 is shown in figure 1 in a locked position, that is to say that the ring 5 and the pendant 9 are fixed together.
  • the fixing device 11 comprises a first fixing element 13 mounted on the ring 5 (not visible in picture 3 ) and a second fixing element 15 mounted on the pendant 9 (not visible in picture 3 ).
  • the first fixing element 13 comprises a casing 17 inside which is housed an elastic return means, typically consisting of a spring 19 mounted in compression in the casing 17 of the first fixing element 13 of the locking device 11.
  • the first fixing element 13 having the mechanical fixing structure comprising a mobile element is carried by the ring which is the non-replaceable part, and the pendant which is the replaceable element comprises the fixing element 15 without a mobile part.
  • the pendant is therefore simple to manufacture and of reduced cost.
  • the first fastening element 13 has a longitudinal axis 21 and further comprises a locking bolt 23 movable in translation along the longitudinal axis 21, alternately between a locking position shown in picture 3 and an unlocked position, shown in figures 8 and 10 .
  • the spring 19 is mounted in the first fixing element 13 so as to permanently return the locking bolt 23 to its locking position.
  • the housing 17 comprises a base 25, contained in a first plane P1, a vertex 27, contained in a second plane P2 axially offset relative to the base 25, along a transverse axis 29 substantially transverse to the longitudinal axis 21.
  • the housing 17 further comprises a set of side walls 31 connecting the base 25 and the top 27.
  • the casing 17 further comprises at one of its side walls a locking opening 33 adapted to be positioned facing a locking keeper of the second fixing element 15 when the second fixing element 15 is fitted on the first fixing element 13, as will be seen in the following description.
  • the side walls 31 define an internal volume inside which the spring 19 is housed.
  • the spring 19 has a first end 35 fixed inside the internal volume of the casing 17 and has a second end 37 fixed on the locking bolt 23.
  • the internal volume of the housing 17 also partially houses the locking bolt 23.
  • a locking end 39 of the locking bolt 23 passes through the locking opening 33 when the locking bolt 23 is in its locking position.
  • the locking end 39 also has a chamfered edge 40, the usefulness of which is detailed in the following description.
  • the base 25 of the housing 17 has a manipulation opening 41 opposite which is mounted a manipulation plate 43 of the locking bolt 23.
  • the manipulation opening 41 is sized to allow manual access to the manipulation plate 43 of the locking bolt 23, in order to allow manual actuation of the locking bolt 23 by a user, as will be seen in the following description.
  • the second fixing element 15 is adapted to fit onto the first fixing element 13, that is to say that the first fixing element 13 and the second fixing element 15 have complementary geometric shapes. relative to each other, like a male part and a female part.
  • the second fixing element 15 completely covers the first fixing element 13 of the fixing device 11.
  • the second fixing element 15 can thus be constituted by a cover 45, which can be an ornamental piece making it possible to confer on the assembly 1 an additional aesthetic character.
  • the cover 45 comprises a top 47, a base 49, axially offset from the top and having an opening 51 sized to allow the cover 45 to fit over the first fixing element 13, and a set of side walls 53 connecting the base 49 and top 51.
  • the pendant 9 is mounted on one or more of the side walls 53 of the cover 45. According to a variant not shown, the pendant 9 can also be mounted on a top wall of cover 45.
  • the second fixing element 15 further comprises a locking keeper 55 arranged to allow cooperation with the locking bolt 23 of the first fixing element 13, visible at the picture 3 .
  • the locking strike 55 consists of an opening made in the side wall of the set of side walls 53 on which the pendant 9 is mounted, as seen in particular at figure 2 .
  • the geometric shapes of the first fixing element 13 and of the second fixing element 15 are chosen such that, when the second fixing element 15 is fitted onto the first fixing element 13, their translation relative along the longitudinal axis 21 of the first fixing element is blocked and so that their relative translation along the transverse axis 29 is allowed.
  • the first and the second fixing element adopt a generally polygonal geometric shape, for example trapezoidal as is the case with the embodiment of the invention given in the figures.
  • any other geometric shape allowing locking in translation between the first fixing element and the second fixing element along the longitudinal axis 21 can be used in the context of the present invention, in particular circular, ellipsoidal.
  • the figure 7 illustrates the first fastening element 13, mounted on the first item of jewelry (not shown), such as a ring, a necklace, a bracelet or an earring.
  • the spring 19 of the first fixing element 13 is in the stretched state, according to which the locking bolt 23 is in the locking position. In this locking position, the end 39 of the locking bolt 23 passes through the locking opening 33 of the housing 17.
  • the second fixing element 15, consisting of the cover 45, is positioned on the first fixing element 13, then a translation is carried out along the transverse axis 29 downwards, according to the arrow 57.
  • the base 49 of the cover 45 exerts pressure on the chamfered edge 40 of the locking bolt 23, causing a loading of the spring 19 in its compressed state, according to the arrow 59.
  • the jewelery and/or jewelery assembly is then in the locked position, that is to say that the first article and the second article are fixed together.
  • the assembly can then be worn in a safe manner by a user.
  • the positioning of the locking bolt 29 in its locking position is obtained automatically thanks to the chamfered edge 40, the base 49 and the spring 19, when the second fixing element 15 is moved downwards along the transverse axis 29 of the first fixing element 13.
  • the locking bolt 23 When it is desired to remove the second jewelry item, for example to replace it in order to give the jewelry and/or jewelry set a new appearance, the locking bolt 23 is moved to the unlocking position by means of the plate manipulation 43. When the locking bolt reaches its unlocked position, the locking bolt 23 no longer cooperates with the locking striker 55. The relative translation of said first and second fixing elements along the transverse axis 29 is then authorized . The second fixing element 15 is thus translated upwards relative to the first fixing element 13, along the transverse axis 29, according to the arrow 59. The displacement of the locking bolt is done by manipulating the manipulation plate at using a finger which exerts a traction on the plate 43. The removal of the second item of jewelry therefore requires no tools, which allows a quick and simple way. Furthermore there is no risk of losing the tool.
