Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a necklace accessory, and more particularly to a necklace accessory that can be used as a brooch independently with a show toner.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Recently, as a necklace used as an accessory, a long long necklace has been favored. Generally, when a long necklace is attached, a short toner is attached as a point in the lower part of the necklace. The shortner is attached to the necklace by fixing the ball rows on both sides of the necklace to each other.

As shown in FIG. 3 (A), the conventional short toner A has a plate-like receiving member 3 formed by arranging two arc-shaped recesses 2 in parallel on the back surface of the decorative member 1, and this receiving member 3. It has a structure in which a pressing metal fitting 5 is provided, which is pivotally fixed to one end side so as to be openable and closable, and two arcuate recesses 4 are formed in parallel on the surface of the receiving metal fitting 3 facing the arcuate recess 2.

In order to attach the short toner A to the long necklace, the holding metal fitting 5 is opened, the decorative member 1 is positioned in front of the portion of the long necklace where the two ball rows approach each other, and the arcuate recess 2 of the receiving metal fitting 3 is placed. Is closed between the upper and lower spheres of the long necklace, and the pressing metal fitting 5 is closed, and the arcuate recess 3 of the pressing metal fitting 5 is positioned between the upper and lower spheres of the long necklace.
The arcuate recesses 2 and 4 sandwich the upper and lower spheres of the long necklace.

[0005]

By the way, in the short toner A as described above, the arcuate concave portions 2 and 4 of the receiving metal fitting 3 and the pressing metal fitting 5 sandwich the upper and lower spheres of the long necklace. Since the width of the corresponding size to the ball diameter of the long necklace is narrow, the range in which the necklace can be attached is limited, and the upper and lower spheres are sandwiched by the arcuate recesses 2 and 3 of the receiving metal fitting 3 and the pressing metal fitting 5, Rattling may occur depending on the change in sphere diameter.

Further, since the upper and lower spheres are sandwiched between the receiving metal fitting 3 and the pressing metal fitting 5, when the external impact is applied to the decorative member 1, the pressing metal fitting 5 will open and easily come off.

Further, such a short toner A is exclusively for a necklace, and the decorative member 1 cannot be used as a brooch.

In addition to the short toner A as described above, in order to use the brooch B held by the hand as a short toner, as shown in FIG. A metal fitting 9 for short toner having a hole 8 through which the needle pin 7 of the brooch B is inserted has been proposed.

However, such a short toner fitting 9
Is designed to be attached by putting the metal fittings 9 for short toner on the rear part of the part of the long necklace where the ball rows on both sides have come close to each other, and inserting the needle pin 7 of the brooch B into the hole 8. There is a case where the brooch B is inclined due to the lack of a fixing function for the ball and the stability is poor, and the diameter of the ball of the necklace that can be used is also limited.

Therefore, the object of the present invention is not only to obtain a stable attachment state by firmly fixing it to the necklace, but also to use the necklace with a wide range of sphere diameters, and to use it as a brooch alone. It is to provide a necklace accessory that can be used.

[0011]

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a needle pin on the back surface of a decorative member,
Located on both sides of the needle pin, the opening faces the needle pin side, a pair of hook members to be inserted between the balls of the necklace is provided, and a catch that is detachably inserted into the needle pin is provided. It adopts a structure in which the catch holds the ball of the necklace from the back while it is attached to the needle pin, and fixes it.

Since the pair of hook members are formed in a hook shape, when inserted between the upper and lower balls of the necklace, the strap of the necklace is housed inside the hook members, and the hook members are arranged between the upper and lower balls. Since the catch can be fixed to the needle pin according to the diameter of the ball of the necklace, the size of the ball of the necklace can be adjusted.

Further, the hook member may have a thin plate-like structure, and the upper and lower surfaces thereof are formed as concave surfaces for accommodating the balls of the necklace, and the portion of the catch necklace that pushes the balls is arcuate. It is formed in a concave conical shape, and it is possible to press a total of four balls on the top and bottom and both sides at the same time.
