Description

The present invention relates to an accessory such as a necklace that can be adjusted in length, and in particular, it is easy to insert and lock a long string-like necklace member into a connecting member, and is capable of performing such an operation with a single touch. The present invention relates to jewelry such as a necklace that can be adjusted in height.

As an accessory such as a necklace that can adjust the length of this kind that has been conventionally used, one end of one surface of a locking member as described in, for example, registered utility model No. 3076881 (see Patent Document 1) One end of the lever is rotatably provided via a shaft support portion, and a linear or bent lever, and a pair of locking pieces formed at the other end of the locking member and locked at the other end of the lever. It is known that a long string-like member is held between one surface of the locking member and the back surface of the lever.
Registered Utility Model No. 3076881

However, since the conventional accessories such as necklaces that can be adjusted in length are configured as described above, the following problems exist.
First, it is necessary to interpose a longitudinal string member between a locking member and a lever having one end pivotally attached thereto, and to lock the other end of the lever to a pair of locking pieces formed on the locking member. The operation of pushing and locking the other end of the lever into a pair of locking pieces formed on the locking member while pressing the longitudinal string member against the locking member is troublesome.

In addition, since the other end of the lever is locked by a pair of locking pieces formed on the locking member, the pair of locking pieces are easily worn each time the lever is locked, causing a problem in durability. In addition, there is a drawback in that the shaft-attached portion of the lever to the locking member tends to become sweet, and problems are likely to occur in the engagement with the pair of locking pieces.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems, and is intended to provide an accessory such as a necklace that can be adjusted in length so that the necklace member can be locked to the connecting member with one touch. .
Further, a metal belt-like plate member having elasticity is bent into a cylindrical shape to form a connecting member, and a necklace member is inserted between the first sandwiching piece and the second sandwiching piece provided at the end thereof. Another object of the present invention is to provide an accessory such as a necklace that can effectively adjust the length of the metal strip-like plate material by effectively utilizing the elasticity of the metal strip and dramatically improving the durability.
In addition, it is an object to provide an accessory such as a necklace which can be configured by only a single member and can be adjusted in length so that significant cost reduction can be realized.

That is, an accessory such as a necklace capable of adjusting the length according to the present invention is formed by bending a metal belt-like plate material having elasticity into a cylindrical shape so as to have hollow portions with a predetermined interval, and forming a connecting member. One of both end portions of the belt-shaped plate material crossed along the length direction is folded at a substantially right angle to form a first sandwich piece, and along the length direction of the strip material from the base portion of the first sandwich piece A guide hole is provided, and the other of both side end portions is folded at a substantially right angle to form a second sandwiching piece, and the second sandwiching piece protrudes from the guide hole in the same direction as the first sandwiching piece, After inserting a linear necklace member between the first sandwiching piece and the second sandwiching piece in a state where the distance between the first sandwiching piece and the second sandwiching piece is increased while pressurizing the metal strip-like plate member, Pull out the tip of the necklace member to the configured hollow part, By utilizing the elasticity it is characterized in that so as to retain clamped linear Necklace member between said first clamping piece and the second clamping piece.

An accessory such as a necklace capable of adjusting the length of the present invention is formed such that the first sandwiching piece and the second sandwiching piece are directed toward the outer side or the inner side of a hollow portion made of a metal strip-shaped plate material, respectively. It is also characterized by being.

In an accessory such as a necklace capable of adjusting the length of the present invention, the second sandwiching piece is provided with a folded piece that is provided with a base near the other end of both side end portions and is directed in the opposite direction. It is also characterized by being formed by folding substantially at a right angle.

The accessory of the necklace or the like capable of adjusting the length of the present invention is such that the tip of the necklace member drawn out to the hollow portion made of the belt-like plate material is pulled out from the hollow portion made of the belt-like plate material toward the side opening, It is also characterized in that it can be cut into lengths.

An accessory such as a necklace capable of adjusting the length of the present invention, the base end of the necklace member is inserted into an insertion hole provided in a side wall facing both side ends of the belt-like plate material of the hollow portion formed of the belt-like plate material, It is also characterized in that the end portions are bundled or a retaining member is attached to prevent the end portion from coming off.

Since this invention was comprised as mentioned above, it came to be able to provide accessories, such as a necklace which can adjust the length which can lock a necklace member to a connection member by one-touch.
Further, a metal belt-like plate member having elasticity is bent into a cylindrical shape to form a connecting member, and a necklace member is inserted between the first sandwiching piece and the second sandwiching piece provided at the end thereof. As a result, it has become possible to effectively utilize the elasticity of the metal belt-like plate material, so that it is possible to provide accessories such as a necklace that can adjust the length with dramatically improved durability. It was.
And since it comprised only with the substantially single member, accessories, such as a necklace which can adjust the length which can implement | achieve a significant cost reduction, can be provided.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Preferred embodiments of an accessory such as a necklace capable of adjusting the length according to the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a schematic side view showing an embodiment of an accessory such as a necklace capable of adjusting the length of the present invention, FIG. 2 is an enlarged sectional view in a normal state of a connecting member, and FIG. 3 is a metal strip plate material constituting the connecting member. FIG. 4 is an enlarged cross-sectional view showing a state in which the distance between the first sandwiching piece and the second sandwiching piece is widened while being pressed, and FIG. 4 shows the necklace member between the first sandwiching piece and the second sandwiching piece. FIG. 5 (a) is a front view before assembling the connecting member, and FIG. 5 (b) shows the necklace member sandwiched between the first sandwiching piece and the second sandwiching piece. It is a front view of a state.

In FIG. 1, the linear necklace member 19 which comprises the necklace 11 is connected by the connection member 12 to which this invention is applied. That is, the connecting member 12 is formed by bending a metal strip plate 13 having elasticity into a cylindrical shape so as to have hollow portions with a predetermined interval. Then, the first sandwiching piece 15 is formed by folding back one side 14 of the both ends of the strip-like plate member 13 constituting the connecting member 12 crossing along the thickness direction at a substantially right angle, and the first sandwiching piece 15 is formed. Guide holes 16 are provided along the length direction of the strip-shaped plate member 13 from the base of 15.
