Description

  The present invention relates to earrings.

  One type of earring is one that is held on the earlobe using the restoring force of a spring (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

JP-A-9-173112

  The invention described in Patent Document 1 relates to an earring. Specifically, the pair of members A and B constituting the earring body, one end of the member A is a bifurcated bearing portion, and one end of the member B is bifurcated. The rotating part is fitted in the bearing part of the shaft, and both of them are pivotally mounted in a direction in which the open end of the other end is abutted through the shaft, the front end is released inside the bifurcated bearing part, and the rear end The leaf spring material is fixed in the groove on the inner peripheral side of the member A, and when the pair of members A and B are opened with the rotation shaft, the leaf spring presses the vertical surface of the rotating portion and opens. When the pair of members A and B are closed, the projecting portion provided at the inner end of the rotating portion is pressed by the leaf spring to maintain the closed state.

  However, in the invention described in Patent Document 1, a pressing force is always applied when the earring is attached to the earlobe, and some users may feel uncomfortable. In addition, there are two movable parts, which complicates the structure and is reflected in the cost. Furthermore, in the invention described in Patent Document 1, there is no description of the material of the clamping parts 2 and 3, and there is a risk of metal allergy in the case of metal.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object thereof is to provide an earring that has a simple structure and does not cause discomfort or metal allergy during wearing.

  In order to achieve such an object, an earring according to the present invention is an earring in which a part of an annular earring main body is formed so as to be openable and closable, and one end thereof is integrally formed with a post extending from one end of the earring main body. A movable part provided through a formed pivot shaft, and provided with an ear pad made of disc-shaped resin at the other end, one end is provided at the movable part, and the other end is provided with the pivot shaft. A spring member that urges the movable portion to press and hold the opening and closing angle; and a spherical member that is provided at the other end of the earring body and that is made of resin that sandwiches the earlobe together with the ear pad portion that is made of the disk-like resin. , And is covered with a soft resin from the disk-shaped ear pad part to a part in contact with the ear in the movable part.

  According to the present invention, it is possible to provide an earring that has a simple structure and does not cause discomfort or metal allergy during wearing.

<Configuration>
The earring 1 of the present embodiment is an earring in which a part of an annular earring body 2 is formed to be openable and closable, and includes an earring body 2 and a movable portion 3.
The earring main body 2 is a substantially arc-shaped (or crescent-shaped) metal hollow tube or solid tube having a diameter of about 3/4 circumference with a diameter of about 15 mm to 20 mm, but the shape is limited. Is not to be done.
A support column 4 is fixed to one end (right end in FIG. 1A) of the earring body 2 so as to extend from one end of the earring body 2, and the other end (left end in FIG. 1A) is a spherical member. 9 is provided. The spherical member 9 has a recess for covering the other end of the earring body 2.
A rotating shaft 8 is fixed to the tip of the column 4 so as to be orthogonal to the column 4. The support 4 and the rotating shaft 8 are fixed by, for example, either brazing or caulking. The rotation shaft 8 passes through through holes 7 formed on both side surfaces of the movable portion 3 so that the movable portion 3 is rotatable.
The movable part 3 is made of metal, and becomes thinner and curved as it moves away from the through hole 7. A leaf spring 10 as a spring member from the tip toward the base is fixed to the tip of the movable portion 3. The leaf spring 10 is urged in the direction of arrow F so as to hold the rotating shaft 8 within the movable portion 3. With this leaf spring 10, the movable part 3 can hold an arbitrary opening / closing degree with respect to the earring body 2. An annular portion 5 is fixed to the tip of the movable portion 3 so as to be orthogonal, and a disc-shaped ear pad 6 is provided on the annular member 5 made of metal. A recess is formed on one surface of the ear pad 6 (the left surface in FIG. 2B). This is because the spherical member 9 is received when the earring 1 is closed.

  The ear pad 6 is covered with a soft resin, such as silicone, from the portion in contact with the ear, and a resin such as polycarbonate is used for the spherical member 9. Examples of the metal include decoration metals such as gold, brass, titanium, and alloys.

<Operation>
The earring 1 of the present embodiment is configured such that the movable part 2 can be opened and closed, and the degree of opening of the movable part 2 with respect to the earring body 2 can be held.
For this reason, as shown in FIG. 3, when the earlobe is sandwiched between the spherical member 9 of the main body 2 of the earring 1 and the ear pad 6 of the movable part 3, the angle sandwiching the earlobe is maintained and does not fall. . The spherical member 9 and the ear pad 6 are not hung on the earlobe but are hung on the earlobe by the frictional force. For this reason, there is no discomfort due to the force that continues to pinch the earlobe.
The earring 1 has a simple structure with only one movable part.
Furthermore, since resin is used for the support 4, the annular member 5, and the spherical member 9 of the ear pad 6, there is no risk of metal allergy to the user.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to provide an earring that has a simple structure and does not cause discomfort or metal allergy during wearing.

  In addition, although the said embodiment is a suitable specific example in this invention, and there may be a technically preferable various limitation, the technical scope of this invention does not have description which limits this invention in particular. As long as it is not limited to these embodiments. Moreover, the component in the said embodiment can be replaced with the existing component etc. suitably, and various variations including the combination with another existing component are possible. Therefore, the description of the above-described embodiment does not limit the content of the device described in the scope of the utility model registration request.
