Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial application field] This invention is a more luxurious earring by attaching another decoration to the earring body, which has a decoration body and a mounting bracket for attaching it to the earlobe. This invention relates to an earring in which the other ornament is detachably attached to the earring main body so that the earring main body and the other ornament can be combined as desired.

[Conventional technology]

In conventional earrings, as shown in FIG. 8, a mounting bracket 21 is fixed to a decorative body 22, and another decorative body 23 is attached to this via an annular metal fitting 24, etc., so that this decorative body 23 swings. It is known that this was done.

However, even though the ornament 23 of the earring swings, the ornament 23 is not removable because it is connected by the annular metal fitting 24.

Therefore, Utility Model Application Publication No. 60-63214, Utility Model Application No. 61
A device with replaceable ornaments has also been devised, as disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 156509.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

However, in the former case, even if a person got tired of the earrings they were using, they could not easily replace them with other ornaments, and had no choice but to use completely different earrings.

In addition, although the above-mentioned drawbacks are resolved in the latter case, the metal fittings for hanging are provided on the front of the earlobe, and not only the decoration itself and the hanging ornaments but also the metal fittings are visible from the front of the ear. This had the disadvantage that the decorative quality of the earrings was lost.

The earring according to this invention improves the above-mentioned problems of the conventional example, and in addition to making it possible to attach the ornament to the mounting bracket in a detachable manner, the mounting bracket is also made almost invisible from the front of the ear. It is something.

[Means for solving problems]

That is, in the earring of this invention, a hook-shaped metal fitting for hanging another decoration is rotatably attached to the lower back of the decoration body, and the hook-shaped metal fitting is provided above the pivot attachment position of the hook-shaped metal fitting on the back of the decoration main body. There is a recess formed at the tip of the hook-shaped fitting on the earlobe attachment fitting.
By forming a protrusion/recess that engages the protrusion and making it freely engageable using the spring elasticity of the engagement part,
It is characterized in that the hook-shaped metal fitting part can be opened and closed, and the decorative body can be attached to and detached from the hook-shaped metal fitting.

[Effect]

With the above configuration, it is now possible to easily attach and remove the decorative body from the mounting bracket, so if you have multiple decorative bodies, you can create various combinations of the mounting bracket and the original decorative body. You can enjoy various coordinations depending on the season and clothing.

〔Example〕

An embodiment of the earring according to this invention will be described below based on the drawings.

In FIGS. 1 and 2, reference numeral 1 denotes a mounting bracket having a decorative main body 2 attached to one end and a spring 3 formed at the other end. The spring 3 is made of an Ω-shaped wire rod, and its lower end, which is bent at right angles to the legs 5, is accommodated in the upper opening of the cylinder 4 formed at the end of the mounting bracket 1. The legs 5 are urged in a direction to expand along the formed V-shaped guide. Therefore, under normal conditions, the upper end is biased toward the decoration main body 2. 6 is a packing housed in the loop portion of the spring 3.

Reference numeral 7 denotes a hook-shaped hanging fitting with one end pivoted to the lower back of the decorative main body 2, and it is desirable that it has some elasticity even when made of precious metal or the like. A recess 8 is formed in the radial direction at the tip. On the other hand, a protrusion 9 is vertically provided on the lower surface of the mounting bracket 1, and when the hook-shaped hanging bracket 7 is rotated and the tip is pressed in the direction of the protrusion 9, the radius of the tip of the hanging bracket 7 changes due to its elasticity. It is contracted and the tip is pushed past the protrusion 9, and in the pushed position it returns to its original shape and the recess 8 engages with the protrusion 9.

In the illustrated example, the recess 8 is formed at the tip of the hanging fitting 7, and the protrusion 9 is formed on the side of the mounting fitting 1, but the same attachment/detachment mechanism can be obtained even if the above arrangement is reversed.

In this way, the hook-shaped hanging fitting 7 can be easily opened and closed because the engagement with the protrusion 9 is removable. The body 11 can be attached or detached.

4 to 9 show other embodiments of this invention.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 4, the hanging metal fitting 7' is an annular metal fitting fixed to the decoration body 2, and a notch 12 is formed in the ring-shaped decoration body 11' to attach a chevron-shaped attachment/detachment metal fitting 13. It is designed to fit. The detachable fitting 13 can be opened and closed by having its base pivoted to one end of the notch 12 and fitting its tip into a receiving fitting 14 having a U-shaped cross section formed at the other end of the notch 12. The end of the receiving fitting 14 is biased in the direction in which the detachable fitting 13 is clamped, and can be attached by press-fitting the tip of the attaching fitting 13 against the elasticity of the receiving fitting 14. The ring-shaped decorative body 11' is fitted into the hanging fitting 7' when the notch 12 is in the open state.
Thereafter, by rotating and closing the attachment/detachment fitting 13 as described above, the decorative body 11' can be easily attached or removed.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 5, the hanging fitting 7'' is a U-shaped fitting fixed to the decoration main body 2, and is opened at the top and the upper end is bent outward to form a guide 15. It is normally biased in the closing direction with an elasticity of 7". Therefore, the ring-shaped decoration 11 is fitted into the hanging fitting 7'' through the opening against its elasticity. In this state, the opening closes naturally due to the elasticity of the hanging fitting 7''. , the decorative body 11 will not fall off easily. Further, it can be easily attached or removed similarly to each of the above embodiments.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 6, a hook-shaped hanging fitting 7 is provided on the decoration main body 2 at the lower part of a U-shaped mounting fitting 16 fixed at the center thereof. Reference numeral 17 denotes a screw screw, which is screwed onto the tip of the mounting bracket 16.

Also, a protrusion 9 for opening and closing the hook-shaped hanging fitting 7 is provided.
is vertically attached to an arm 18 that protrudes from the decoration main body 2 toward the lower end of the mounting bracket 16. Therefore, it is possible to prevent a large load from being applied to the mounting fittings 16.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 7, a hook-shaped hanging fitting 7
is attached to a downwardly facing bearing portion 16' on a clip-type mounting bracket 16 fixed to the lower part of the decoration main body 2. 17' is a clip to which an elastic earmuff is attached, and the decorative body 2 is attached to the tip of the mounting bracket 16.
It is pivoted so that it is biased toward the side.

Further, a protrusion 9' for opening and closing the hook-shaped hanging fitting 7 is vertically provided on an arm 18 that projects downward from the tip of the mounting fitting 16. Mounting bracket 16
It is desirable that the portion near the tip of the hook be fitted into the protrusion 9' as a fork, and be detachable by operating the tip of the hanging fitting 7 as a lever.

[Effect of idea]

Since the earring according to this invention is constructed as described above, a separately prepared ornament can be easily and reliably attached to the mounting bracket, and it can also be easily removed. Therefore, in addition to the decorative body originally provided on the front of the mounting bracket, a decorative body of an appropriate shape can be attached as desired, and can be combined with the original decorative body of the mounting bracket in various ways to suit the season or outfit. You can enjoy various coordination according to your needs.

Furthermore, since the structure is simple and easy to handle, and the detachable part is almost invisible from the outside, it is possible to obtain an earring with excellent decorativeness.
