- FIG. 1 there is a general distinction between a clothing accessory and a scarf support according to the present invention, this accessory essentially consisting of a lower plate 1 and by an upper plate 2.
- the accessory is generally intended to be fixed to clothing such as a shirt, blouse, jacket or suit, essentially at the top of the shoulder.
- the accessory is thus arranged above the shoulder in a position for which the lower plate 1 is substantially horizontal.
- the accessory according to the invention can also be worn in any other place of any garment.
- the lower plate and the upper plate preferably have a substantially planar, elongated rectangular shape, of substantially equal lengths.
- the width of the lower plate is less than the width of the upper plate.
- the upper plate 2 is connected to the lower plate 1 via a hinge 3 which is located in the vicinity of one of the two ends of the plates.
- the articulation 3 allows the upper plate 2 to pivot so as to pass from a horizontal position substantially parallel to the plate 1 to an open position for which the upper plate 2 forms a certain angle relative to the plate lower 1, this angle being at least equal to 30 ° and being able to go up to 180 °.
- the upper plate 2 In the closed position for which the upper plate 2 is brought in the vicinity of the lower plate 1 in a parallel manner thereto, the upper plate 2 is at a short distance D from the lower plate 1, this distance D may for example be about 3 to 12 millimeters.
- This removable fixing element can be any, but it is preferably constituted by a part 4 forming a double pin, this part 4 being connected by articulation 6 to the lower face of the lower plate 1.
- the pointed free end of the double pin is fixed removably in a fastening element 5.
- the accessory is fixed to the garment as follows.
- the double pin 4 is released from the fastening element 5 and is moved away from the lower plate 1 by pivoting at the level of the joint 6.
- the person can then prick the garment using the double pin 4 and bring out of the garment the pointed ends of this double pin 4 then actuate the double pin 4 so that its pointed ends are fixed in the fastening element 5.
- this means of fixing the accessory on a garment can function in a conventional manner like any fastener of a pin.
- the fact of not using a single pin but the double pin 4 has the advantage that the whole of the accessory is better fixed to the garment in the sense that the accessory cannot pivot around the pin. Consequently, the bottom plate 1 which is substantially flat can remain substantially parallel to the part of the garment on which the accessory is thus fixed, which is advantageous from an aesthetic point of view and which is more comfortable because the accessory does not oscillate when the person moves.
- the accessory according to the invention makes it possible to completely surround said scarf laterally in order to keep it in place.
- the scarf does not need to be tightened or pinched strongly by the accessory to be effectively fixed, thanks to the fact that the accessory according to the invention completely surrounds said scarf laterally (that is to say surrounds said scarf according to a closed ring).
- such a removable closure means is constituted by two opposite hooks 7, 8 which extend downwards from an end zone of the upper plate 2 and which can pass through an opening 9 formed in a corresponding end zone of the lower plate 1.
- the hooks 7, 8 are flexible at their lower free part so that they can bend when they are engaged while passing through the opening 9 and that they can relax elastically in order to hook themselves.
- the release of this fixing means can be obtained, as can be seen in FIG. 7, by pinching the lower free ends 10, 11 of the hooks 7, 8 so as to cause them to bend by bringing them closer to one of the other to release the hooks from the bottom plate 1.
- This other fixing means consists of a rod 12 which is connected by a hinge 13 to an end region of the lower plate 1.
- the free end of the rod 1 1 is threaded and a clamping button 14 is screwed onto this threaded end.
- the free end of the rod 12 can pass through an L-shaped slot 15 which opens at the end of the upper plate 2.
- the free end of the rod 12 can be pivoted to come substantially in a vertical position by first passing through a first part 16 of the slot 15, this part 16 extending substantially longitudinally, then into a second part 17 of the slot 15, this second part 17 extending transversely , to come and stay in an enlarged part 18 at the bottom of part 17.
- a large number of other fastening means could be envisaged, as much for removably fixing the upper plate 2 with the lower plate 1 as for detachably fixing the lower plate 1 with the garment.
- the general idea of the invention lies in the fact of removably fixing a clothing accessory which is generally in the form of an elongated bar, this accessory being for example fixed horizontally on the part of the garment located on the shoulder, as illustrated in FIG. 8.
- the accessory is provided for detachably pinching a piece of fabric of the scarf type, so that part of the scarf thus pinched can fall freely from the shoulder on the front of the garment and that the other part of the pinched scarf can fall freely on the lower part of the garment, as can be seen in Figure 8.
- the whole of this accessory according to the he invention and the scarf that it supports can thus constitute an element of clothing decoration which highlights the scarf used particularly well.
- the scarf can thus have a relatively free movement at the level of its part which falls towards the front and at the level of its part which falls towards the rear, which puts the scarf particularly well in value.
- the scarf thus hung cannot be easily lost, as is the case when a scarf is placed, for example around the neck.
- the enhancement of the scarf is further improved by the fact that the scarf is then used in a location which is not conventional and which attracts the eye. This new location located on the shoulder is not conventional, on the one hand because the scarf is then placed in a relatively high and clearly visible manner and on the other hand because the scarf is placed on a asymmetrically.
- the clothing accessory according to the present invention also has the advantage of being able both to constitute in itself a decorative element and to be able to be used advantageously in order to support a scarf without risk of loss thereof.
- a person has a scarf, if this person enters for example a heated room, it is then essential for him to leave his scarf and he does not know never where to put it. If the person puts his scarf in a handbag, the scarf is then hidden and no longer of decorative interest, and in addition, the scarf may get dirty or wrinkle. If the person does not have a handbag, he can no longer leave his scarf by housing it in a practical place.
- the new accessory concept according to the present invention makes it possible to radically modify the use of the scarf both by making it intrinsically more aesthetic (thanks to the fact that it is maintained in a completely surrounded manner and in the vicinity of center) and allowing the wearer to be able to change their position in relation to clothing ad infinitum.
- the accessory according to the invention is worn on a substantially horizontal area of the garment, that is to say on the shoulder or on the front of a skirt when the person is seated, the scarf has two opposite parts which fall in a natural drapery effect on either side of the accessory according to the invention, leaving visible the top of the accessory (the accessory is highlighted).
- the accessory according to the invention is worn on a substantially vertical zone of the garment, for example on the front of a jacket or a blouse or on a skirt when the person is standing, there are still two Ways of fixing the accessories according to the invention: (A) horizontally, so that the two opposite parts of the scarf fall on the same side, the upper part coming to fall on the lower part by partially or entirely masking the accessory (the scarf appears as associated with the garment without the use of a fastening accessory), or (B) vertically, which means that the two opposite parts of the scarf fall on either side of the accessory leaving the top visible the accessory (the accessory is still highlighted).

Description
ACCESSOIRE VESTIMENTAIRE DE SUPPORT DE FOULARD. CLOTHING SUPPORT ACCESSORY.
Domaine de l'inventionField of the invention
La présente invention concerne de façon générale un accessoire vestimentaire de support de foulard.The present invention relates generally to a clothing accessory for supporting a scarf.
Dans la suite du texte, le terme "foulard" sera compris comme désignant un quelconque élément vestimentaire constitué essentiellement par du tissu et pouvant servir de foulard, mais également d'écharpe, de mouchoir, de tissu pour pochette ou de tout autre élément à base de tissu constituant un élément supplémentaire de fantaisie vestimentaire. Arrière-plan de l'inventionIn the remainder of the text, the term "scarf" will be understood to designate any item of clothing consisting essentially of fabric and which can serve as a scarf, but also as a scarf, handkerchief, fabric for a pocket or any other element based of fabric constituting an additional element of fancy dress. Invention background
Le foulard (pris au sens large du terme tel que défini ci- dessus) constitue un élément classique d'un grand nombre de tenues vestimentaires. Cependant, le foulard présente les inconvénients suivants. Tout d'abord, le foulard est facilement perdable. D'autre part, les aspects décoratifs du foulard ne sont pas forcément bien mis en valeur lorsque le foulard est porté autour du cou ou lorsqu'il est logé dans une pochette d'un veston. D'autre part, lorsque le foulard a été porté autour du cou ou logé dans une pochette, il se froisse rapidement, ce qui nuit à son aspect esthétique.The scarf (taken in the broad sense of the term as defined above) constitutes a classic element of a large number of clothing outfits. However, the scarf has the following disadvantages. First of all, the scarf is easily lost. On the other hand, the decorative aspects of the scarf are not necessarily highlighted when the scarf is worn around the neck or when it is housed in a jacket pocket. On the other hand, when the scarf has been worn around the neck or housed in a pouch, it creases quickly, which affects its aesthetic appearance.
La "pince à cravate" est un accessoire vestimentaire très connu. Par exemple, le brevet allemand DE-201992 (déposé le 22 mai 1906) décrit une pince à cravate comprenant une plaque inférieure "f", une plaque supérieure "h" et une épingle "c". L'extrémité libre pointue de l'épingle n'est pas fixable à la plaque "f". D'autre part, l'extrémité libre de la seconde plaque "h" n'est pas fixable à la plaque "f". Un tel accessoire ne pourrait pas servir en tant que support de foulard fixable par exemple sur l'épaule. En effet, cette pince à cravate connue ne peut pas être fixée de façon suffisamment inamovible sur un vêtement. Une traction exercée sur la pince peut toujours provoquer l'extraction de l'épingle "c" qui est simplement piquée au traversThe "tie clip" is a well-known clothing accessory. For example, German patent DE-201992 (filed May 22, 1906) describes a tie clip comprising a lower plate "f", an upper plate "h" and a pin "c". The pointed free end of the pin cannot be fixed to the plate "f". On the other hand, the free end of the second plate "h" cannot be fixed to the plate "f". Such an accessory could not be used as a fixable scarf support, for example on the shoulder. Indeed, this known tie clip cannot be fixed in a sufficiently irremovable manner on a garment. A pull exerted on the clamp can always cause the extraction of the pin "c" which is simply stitched through
N
du tissu. En fait, pour une pince à cravate, il n'est pas souhaitable de piquer le tissu de la chemise parce que la chemise est constituée par un tissu fin et tassé qui ne supporte pas d'être piqué un grand nombre de fois, surtout à l'avant de la chemise, c'est-à-dire au niveau de la partie de la chemise qui se voit le plus. D'autre part, la pince à cravate est destinée à tenir la cravate en la "pinçant", comme son nom l'indique. En effet, la cravate ne demande pas d'être fixée fortement par la pince à cravate, puisque la cravate est déjà efficacement fixée à l'individu à l'aide du noeud de cravate. Le but de la pince à cravate est simplement de retenir légèrement la cravate pour éviter qu'elle ne se soulève par le vent ou qu'elle ne s'avance quand la personne se penche en avant.NOT fabric. In fact, for a tie clip, it is undesirable to prick the fabric of the shirt because the shirt is made up of a fine and compacted fabric which does not support being pricked a lot of times, especially at the front of the shirt, i.e. at the part of the shirt that is most visible. On the other hand, the tie clip is intended to hold the tie by "pinching", as its name suggests. Indeed, the tie does not require to be fixed strongly by the tie clip, since the tie is already effectively fixed to the individual using the tie knot. The purpose of the tie clip is simply to hold the tie slightly to prevent it from lifting in the wind or coming forward when the person leans forward.
Il résulte de ce qui précède qu'une pince à cravate quelconque connue ne pourrait pas être efficacement utilisée pour constituer un support de foulard fixable par exemple sur l'épaule.It follows from the above that any known tie clip could not be effectively used to constitute a scarf support that can be fixed, for example on the shoulder.
Un bijou comprenant un support et une épingle articulée au support et dont l'extrémité libre peut être fixée de façon amovible au support d'épingle est un système bien connu. Un grand nombre de broches même anciennes incluent un tel système d'attache. Par exemple le document GB-837 255 décrit une broche pouvant servir aussi de boucle d'oreilles. Cette broche inclut un support et une épingle articulée au support et dont l'extrémité libre peut être fixée de façon amovible au support. Cette broche inclut aussi un autre moyen de fixation en forme de pince ouverte et flexible qui permet de pincer un lobe d'oreille afin de constituer alors une boucle d'oreille. Ce document montre que le système d'attache incluant un support et une épingle articulée au support et dont l'extrémité libre peut être fixée de façon amovible au support est un système d'attache "connu en soi". Cependant, à partir des éléments connus mentionnés précédemment, il n'a jamais été proposé de constituer un accessoire vestimentaire de support de foulard permettant à la fois de fixer le foulard en un endroit quelconque
d'un vêtement, de façon sûre et de laisser au foulard une forme évitant des formations de plis indésirablesA piece of jewelry comprising a support and a pin hinged to the support and the free end of which can be removably attached to the pin support is a well known system. A large number of pins, even old ones, include such a fastening system. For example, document GB-837,255 describes a pin which can also serve as an earring. This pin includes a support and a pin hinged to the support and the free end of which can be removably attached to the support. This pin also includes another fixing means in the form of an open and flexible clamp which makes it possible to pinch an ear lobe in order to then constitute an earring. This document shows that the fastening system including a support and a pin hinged to the support and whose free end can be removably attached to the support is a fastening system "known per se". However, on the basis of the known elements mentioned previously, it has never been proposed to constitute a clothing accessory for scarf support making it possible both to fix the scarf in any location of a garment, securely and leave the scarf a shape avoiding undesirable creases
Un objet de la présente invention consiste à proposer un accessoire vestimentaire permettant d'améliorer la mise en valeur d'un foulard.An object of the present invention to provide a clothing accessory to improve the development of a scarf.
Un autre objet de l'invention consiste à proposer un tel accessoire permettant d'éviter le risque de perte du foulard.Another object of the invention consists in proposing such an accessory making it possible to avoid the risk of losing the scarf.
Un autre objet de la présente invention consiste à proposer un tel accessoire permettant de limiter le froissage du foulard.Another object of the present invention to provide such an accessory to limit the wrinkling of the scarf.
Un autre objet de la présente invention consiste à proposer un tel accessoire permettant de conférer au foulard une position différente sur la tenue vestimentaire qui favorise l'aspect drapé du foulard ainsi que sa possibilité de mouvement lors du déplacement de la personne ainsi habillée. Résumé de l'inventionAnother object of the present invention consists in proposing such an accessory making it possible to give the scarf a different position on the dress which promotes the draped appearance of the scarf as well as its possibility of movement during the movement of the person thus dressed. Summary of the invention
L'invention concerne donc un accessoire vestimentaire de support de foulard.The invention therefore relates to a clothing accessory for scarf support.
Selon une caractéristique essentielle de l'invention, l'accessoire vestimentaire comprend : une plaque inférieure , une plaque supérieure, une articulation pour faire pivoter la plaque supérieure par rapport à la plaque inférieure, un premier moyen de fixation amovible pour fixer de façon amovible la plaque supérieure au voisinage de la plaque inférieure, afin de pincer un élément décoratif en tissu, et un second moyen de fixation amovible pour fixer de façon amovible la plaque inférieure sur un vêtement d'un usager de l'accessoire.According to an essential characteristic of the invention, the clothing accessory comprises: a lower plate, an upper plate, a hinge for pivoting the upper plate relative to the lower plate, a first removable fixing means for removably fixing the upper plate in the vicinity of the lower plate, in order to pinch a decorative fabric element, and a second removable fixing means for removably fixing the lower plate on a garment of a user of the accessory.
Selon un mode de réalisation particulier de l'invention, le second moyen de fixation amovible comprend une double épingle qui comporte deux extrémités libres pointues destinées à piquer le vêtement afin que la double épingle le traverse en deux
endroits espacés l'un de l'autre pour assurer une meilleure stabilité de l'accessoire.According to a particular embodiment of the invention, the second removable fixing means comprises a double pin which has two pointed free ends intended to prick the garment so that the double pin crosses it in two places spaced from each other to ensure better stability of the accessory.
On peut faire remarquer que la pince à cravate connue et que les accessoires connus du type broche ne peuvent pas être utilisés pour assurer les caractéristiques rappelées en objet, ces caractéristiques étant en outre assurées par le dispositif selon la présente invention. Description des figuresIt may be noted that the known tie clip and that the known accessories of the pin type cannot be used to ensure the characteristics mentioned in the object, these characteristics being further provided by the device according to the present invention. Description of the figures
Ces objets, caractéristiques et avantages, ainsi que d'autres de la présente invention seront mieux compris lors de la description détaillée d'exemples de réalisation qui va suivre, illustrée par les figures annexées parmi lesquelles : la figure 1 est une vue de côté d'un accessoire vestimentaire selon la présente invention ; la figure 2 est une vue de dessous de l'accessoire de la figure 1 ; la figure 3 est une vue de dessous partielle d'une partie de l'accessoire de la figure 1 , destinée à montrer le fonctionnement d'un élément servant à la fixation de l'accessoire sur un vêtement ; la figure 4 est une vue de côté partielle d'une autre partie de l'accessoire de la figure 1 , destinée à montrer le fonctionnement d'un autre élément servant à la fixation du foulard ; la figure 5 est une vue de côté d'un autre mode de réalisation d'un accessoire selon la présente invention ; la figure 6 est une vue de dessus de l'accessoire de la figure 5 ; la figure 7 est une vue en perspective d'une partie de l'accessoire de la figure 5, l'accessoire étant dans une position d'ouverture , cette vue étant destinée à montrer le fonctionnement d'un élément de fermeture de cet accessoire ; et la figure 8 est une vue schématique d'une personne portant une accessoire vestimentaire selon l'invention. Description détaillée d'un mode de réalisation de l'invention
Sur la figure 1 , on distingue de façon générale un accessoire vestimentaire de support de foulard selon la présente invention, cet accessoire étant constitué essentiellement par une plaque inférieure 1 et par une plaque supérieure 2. L'accessoire est en général destiné à être fixé sur un vêtement du type chemise, chemisier, veste ou tailleur, essentiellement au niveau du dessus de l'épaule. De préférence, l'accessoire est disposé ainsi au-dessus de l'épaule en une position pour laquelle la plaque inférieure 1 est sensiblement horizontale. L'accessoire selon l'invention peut aussi être porté en tout autre endroit d'un vêtement quelconque.These objects, characteristics and advantages, as well as others of the present invention will be better understood during the detailed description of exemplary embodiments which follows, illustrated by the appended figures among which: FIG. 1 is a side view of 'a clothing accessory according to the present invention; Figure 2 is a bottom view of the accessory of Figure 1; Figure 3 is a partial bottom view of a portion of the accessory of Figure 1, intended to show the operation of an element used for fixing the accessory on a garment; Figure 4 is a partial side view of another part of the accessory of Figure 1, intended to show the operation of another element used for fixing the scarf; Figure 5 is a side view of another embodiment of an accessory according to the present invention; Figure 6 is a top view of the accessory of Figure 5; Figure 7 is a perspective view of part of the accessory of Figure 5, the accessory being in an open position, this view being intended to show the operation of a closing element of this accessory; and Figure 8 is a schematic view of a person wearing a clothing accessory according to the invention. Detailed description of an embodiment of the invention In FIG. 1, there is a general distinction between a clothing accessory and a scarf support according to the present invention, this accessory essentially consisting of a lower plate 1 and by an upper plate 2. The accessory is generally intended to be fixed to clothing such as a shirt, blouse, jacket or suit, essentially at the top of the shoulder. Preferably, the accessory is thus arranged above the shoulder in a position for which the lower plate 1 is substantially horizontal. The accessory according to the invention can also be worn in any other place of any garment.
La plaque inférieure et la plaque supérieure ont de préférence une forme sensiblement plane, rectangulaire allongée, de longueurs sensiblement égales. De préférence, la largeur de la plaque inférieure est inférieure à la largeur de la plaque supérieure. La plaque supérieure 2 est reliée à la plaque inférieure 1 par l'intermédiaire d'une articulation 3 qui est située au voisinage d'une des deux extrémités des plaques. L'articulation 3 permet à la plaque supérieure 2 de pivoter de façon à passer d'une position horizontale sensiblement parallèle à la plaque 1 jusqu'à une position d'ouverture pour laquelle la plaque supérieure 2 forme un certain angle par rapport à la plaque inférieure 1 , cet angle étant au moins égal à 30° et pouvant aller jusqu'à 180°. Dans la position de fermeture pour laquelle la plaque supérieure 2 est amenée au voisinage de la plaque inférieure 1 d'une façon parallèle à celle-ci, la plaque supérieure 2 se trouve à une faible distance D de la plaque inférieure 1 , cette distance D pouvant être par exemple d'environ 3 à 12 millimètres. Sur la face inférieure de la plaque inférieure 1 , est en outre disposé un système de fixation amovible qui est destiné à fixer l'ensemble de l'accessoire sur un vêtement. Cet élément de fixation amovible peut être quelconque mais il est de préférence constitué par une pièce 4 formant une double épingle, cette pièce 4 étant reliée par articulation 6 à la face inférieure de la plaque inférieure 1 . L'extrémité libre pointue de la double
épingle vient se fixer de façon amovible dans un élément de fixation 5. L'accessoire est fixé au vêtement de la manière suivante. La double épingle 4 est libérée de l'élément de fixation 5 et est écartée de la plaque inférieure 1 en pivotant au niveau de l'articulation 6. La personne peut alors piquer le vêtement à l'aide de la double épingle 4 et faire ressortir du vêtement les extrémités pointues de cette double épingle 4 puis actionner la double épingle 4 de façon à ce que ses extrémités pointues viennent se fixer dans l'élément de fixation 5. En fait, ce moyen de fixation de l'accessoire sur un vêtement peut fonctionner d'une façon classique comme n'importe quelle attache d'une broche. Cependant, le fait de ne pas utiliser une simple épingle mais la double épingle 4 a pour avantage que l'ensemble de l'accessoire est mieux fixé sur le vêtement dans le sens où l'accessoire ne peut pas pivoter autour de l'épingle. Par conséquent, la plaque inférieure 1 qui est sensiblement plane peut rester sensiblement parallèle à la partie du vêtement sur laquelle l'accessoire est ainsi fixé, ce qui est avantageux d'un point de vue esthétique et ce qui est plus confortable parce que l'accessoire n'oscille pas quand la personne bouge.The lower plate and the upper plate preferably have a substantially planar, elongated rectangular shape, of substantially equal lengths. Preferably, the width of the lower plate is less than the width of the upper plate. The upper plate 2 is connected to the lower plate 1 via a hinge 3 which is located in the vicinity of one of the two ends of the plates. The articulation 3 allows the upper plate 2 to pivot so as to pass from a horizontal position substantially parallel to the plate 1 to an open position for which the upper plate 2 forms a certain angle relative to the plate lower 1, this angle being at least equal to 30 ° and being able to go up to 180 °. In the closed position for which the upper plate 2 is brought in the vicinity of the lower plate 1 in a parallel manner thereto, the upper plate 2 is at a short distance D from the lower plate 1, this distance D may for example be about 3 to 12 millimeters. On the underside of the lower plate 1, there is also disposed a removable fastening system which is intended to fix the entire accessory on a garment. This removable fixing element can be any, but it is preferably constituted by a part 4 forming a double pin, this part 4 being connected by articulation 6 to the lower face of the lower plate 1. The pointed free end of the double pin is fixed removably in a fastening element 5. The accessory is fixed to the garment as follows. The double pin 4 is released from the fastening element 5 and is moved away from the lower plate 1 by pivoting at the level of the joint 6. The person can then prick the garment using the double pin 4 and bring out of the garment the pointed ends of this double pin 4 then actuate the double pin 4 so that its pointed ends are fixed in the fastening element 5. In fact, this means of fixing the accessory on a garment can function in a conventional manner like any fastener of a pin. However, the fact of not using a single pin but the double pin 4 has the advantage that the whole of the accessory is better fixed to the garment in the sense that the accessory cannot pivot around the pin. Consequently, the bottom plate 1 which is substantially flat can remain substantially parallel to the part of the garment on which the accessory is thus fixed, which is advantageous from an aesthetic point of view and which is more comfortable because the accessory does not oscillate when the person moves.
Lorsque l'usager a ainsi fixé l'accessoire sur son vêtement, de préférence sur la partie du vêtement située sur l'épaule, l'usager ouvre la plaque supérieure 2, dispose en travers un foulard ( représenté en 30 sur la figure 8) au-dessus de la plaque inférieure 1 puis rabat la plaque supérieure 2 de façon à pincer ou à supporter ce foulard. La plaque supérieure 2 est alors maintenue ainsi dans une position fermée à l'aide d'un moyen de fermeture amovible quelconque. Ainsi, l'accessoire selon l'invention permet d'entourer latéralement complètement ledit foulard pour le maintenir en place. Le foulard n'a pas besoin d'être serré ou pincé fortement par l'accessoire pour être efficacement fixé, grâce au fait que l'accessoire selon l'invention entoure latéralement complètement ledit foulard (c'est-à-dire entoure ledit foulard selon un anneau fermé). Sur la figure 1 , un tel moyen de fermeture amovible est constitué par
deux crochets opposés 7, 8 qui s'étendent vers le bas à partir d'une zone d'extrémité de la plaque supérieure 2 et qui peuvent passer au travers d'une ouverture 9 ménagée dans une zone d'extrémité correspondante de la plaque inférieure 1 . Les crochets 7, 8 sont flexibles au niveau de leur partie libre inférieure de telle sorte qu'ils peuvent fléchir lorsqu'ils sont enclenchés en passant au travers de l'ouverture 9 et qu'ils peuvent se détendre élastiquement afin de se crocheter. La libération de ce moyen de fixation peut être obtenue, comme on peut le voir sur la figure 7, en pinçant les extrémités libres inférieures 10, 1 1 des crochets 7, 8 de façon à les faire fléchir en les rapprochant l'un de l'autre afin de libérer les crochets de la plaque inférieure 1 .When the user has thus fixed the accessory on his garment, preferably on the part of the garment located on the shoulder, the user opens the upper plate 2, places a scarf across (shown at 30 in FIG. 8) above the lower plate 1 then fold the upper plate 2 so as to pinch or support this scarf. The upper plate 2 is then thus held in a closed position using any removable closure means. Thus, the accessory according to the invention makes it possible to completely surround said scarf laterally in order to keep it in place. The scarf does not need to be tightened or pinched strongly by the accessory to be effectively fixed, thanks to the fact that the accessory according to the invention completely surrounds said scarf laterally (that is to say surrounds said scarf according to a closed ring). In Figure 1, such a removable closure means is constituted by two opposite hooks 7, 8 which extend downwards from an end zone of the upper plate 2 and which can pass through an opening 9 formed in a corresponding end zone of the lower plate 1. The hooks 7, 8 are flexible at their lower free part so that they can bend when they are engaged while passing through the opening 9 and that they can relax elastically in order to hook themselves. The release of this fixing means can be obtained, as can be seen in FIG. 7, by pinching the lower free ends 10, 11 of the hooks 7, 8 so as to cause them to bend by bringing them closer to one of the other to release the hooks from the bottom plate 1.
On peut envisager d'autres moyens de fixation de la plaque supérieure 2 avec la plaque inférieure 1. On peut par exemple envisager un autre moyen de fixation qui est représenté sur les figures 5 à 7. Cet autre moyen de fixation est constitué par une tige 12 qui est reliée par une articulation 13 à une zone d'extrémité de la plaque inférieure 1. L'extrémité libre de la tige 1 1 est filetée et un bouton de serrage 14 est vissé sur cette extrémité filetée. L'extrémité libre de la tige 12 peut passer au travers d'une fente en forme de L 15 qui débouche au niveau de l'extrémité de la plaque supérieure 2. Par conséquent, l'extrémité libre de la tige 12 peut être pivotée pour venir sensiblement dans une position verticale en passant tout d'abord dans une première partie 16 de la fente 15, cette partie 16 s'étendant sensiblement longitudinalement, puis dans une seconde partie 17 de la fente 15, cette seconde partie 17 s'étendant transversalement, pour venir se loger dans une partie élargie 18 dans le fond de la partie 17.One can consider other means of fixing the upper plate 2 with the lower plate 1. One can for example consider another fixing means which is shown in Figures 5 to 7. This other fixing means consists of a rod 12 which is connected by a hinge 13 to an end region of the lower plate 1. The free end of the rod 1 1 is threaded and a clamping button 14 is screwed onto this threaded end. The free end of the rod 12 can pass through an L-shaped slot 15 which opens at the end of the upper plate 2. Consequently, the free end of the rod 12 can be pivoted to come substantially in a vertical position by first passing through a first part 16 of the slot 15, this part 16 extending substantially longitudinally, then into a second part 17 of the slot 15, this second part 17 extending transversely , to come and stay in an enlarged part 18 at the bottom of part 17.
On pourrait envisager un grand nombre d'autres moyens de fixation , autant pour fixer de façon amovible la plaque supérieure 2 avec la plaque inférieure 1 que pour fixer de façon amovible le plaque inférieure 1 avec le vêtement.
On peut considérer que l'idée générale de l'invention réside dans le fait de fixer de façon amovible un accessoire vestimentaire qui se présente de façon générale sous la forme d'une barrette allongée, cet accessoire étant par exemple fixé horizontalement sur la partie du vêtement située sur l'épaule, comme cela est illustré sur la figure 8. En outre, l'accessoire est prévu pour pincer de façon amovible un élément de tissu du type foulard, de telle sorte qu'une partie du foulard ainsi pincée puisse tomber librement à partir de l'épaule sur l'avant du vêtement et que l'autre partie du foulard pincé puisse tomber librement sur la partie inférieure du vêtement, comme on peut le voir sur la figure 8. L'ensemble de cet accessoire selon l'invention et du foulard qu'il supporte peut ainsi constituer un élément de décoration vestimentaire qui met particulièrement bien en valeur le foulard utilisé. En effet, le foulard peut ainsi avoir un mouvement relativement libre au niveau de sa partie qui retombe vers l'avant et au niveau de sa partie qui retombe vers l'arrière, ce qui met particulièrement bien en valeur le foulard. En outre, le foulard ainsi accroché ne peut pas être perdu facilement, comme c'est le cas lorsqu'un foulard est disposé par exemple autour du cou. La mise en valeur du foulard est encore améliorée du fait que le foulard est alors utilisé en un emplacement qui n'est pas classique et qui attire l'oeil. Cet emplacement nouveau situé sur l'épaule n'est pas classique, d'une part du fait que le foulard est alors disposé d'une façon relativement haute et bien visible et d'autre part du fait que le foulard est disposé d'une façon dissymétrique. En outre, le foulard est visible autant depuis l'avant que depuis l'arrière. L'accessoire vestimentaire selon la présente invention présente en outre l'avantage de pouvoir à la fois constituer en lui-même un élément de décoration et de pouvoir être utilisé avantageusement afin de supporter un foulard sans risque de perte de celui-ci. Lorsqu'une personne dispose d'un foulard, si cette personne rentre par exemple dans un local chauffé, il lui est alors indispensable de quitter son foulard et elle ne sait
jamais où le mettre. Si la personne met son foulard dans un sac à main, le foulard est alors masqué et ne présente plus d'intérêt décoratif, et en outre, le foulard risque de se salir ou de se froisser. Si la personne ne dispose pas d'un sac à main, elle ne peut plus quitter son foulard en le logeant dans un endroit pratique.A large number of other fastening means could be envisaged, as much for removably fixing the upper plate 2 with the lower plate 1 as for detachably fixing the lower plate 1 with the garment. We can consider that the general idea of the invention lies in the fact of removably fixing a clothing accessory which is generally in the form of an elongated bar, this accessory being for example fixed horizontally on the part of the garment located on the shoulder, as illustrated in FIG. 8. In addition, the accessory is provided for detachably pinching a piece of fabric of the scarf type, so that part of the scarf thus pinched can fall freely from the shoulder on the front of the garment and that the other part of the pinched scarf can fall freely on the lower part of the garment, as can be seen in Figure 8. The whole of this accessory according to the he invention and the scarf that it supports can thus constitute an element of clothing decoration which highlights the scarf used particularly well. Indeed, the scarf can thus have a relatively free movement at the level of its part which falls towards the front and at the level of its part which falls towards the rear, which puts the scarf particularly well in value. In addition, the scarf thus hung cannot be easily lost, as is the case when a scarf is placed, for example around the neck. The enhancement of the scarf is further improved by the fact that the scarf is then used in a location which is not conventional and which attracts the eye. This new location located on the shoulder is not conventional, on the one hand because the scarf is then placed in a relatively high and clearly visible manner and on the other hand because the scarf is placed on a asymmetrically. In addition, the scarf is visible both from the front and from the back. The clothing accessory according to the present invention also has the advantage of being able both to constitute in itself a decorative element and to be able to be used advantageously in order to support a scarf without risk of loss thereof. When a person has a scarf, if this person enters for example a heated room, it is then essential for him to leave his scarf and he does not know never where to put it. If the person puts his scarf in a handbag, the scarf is then hidden and no longer of decorative interest, and in addition, the scarf may get dirty or wrinkle. If the person does not have a handbag, he can no longer leave his scarf by housing it in a practical place.
En fait, le nouveau concept d'accessoire selon la présente invention permet de modifier radicalement l'utilisation du foulard à la fois en le rendant intrinsèquement plus esthétique (grâce au fait qu'il est maintenu d'une façon complètement entourée et au voisinage de son centre) et en permettant à la personne qui le porte de pouvoir changer à l'infini sa position par rapport aux vêtements. Par exemple, si l'accessoire selon l'invention est porté sur une zone sensiblement horizontale du vêtement, c'est-à-dire sur l'épaule ou sur l'avant d'une jupe lorsque la personne est assise, le foulard présente deux parties opposées qui tombent selon un effet de drapé naturel de part et d'autre de l'accessoire selon l'invention en laissant visible le dessus de l'accessoire (l'accessoire est mis en valeur). Par contre, si l'accessoire selon l'invention est porté sur une zone sensiblement verticale du vêtement, par exemple sur l'avant d'une veste ou d'un chemisier ou sur une jupe lorsque la personne est debout, il existe encore deux façons de fixer l'accessoires selon l'invention : (A) horizontalement, ce qui fait que les deux parties opposées du foulard tombent du même côté, la partie supérieure venant tomber sur la partie inférieure en masquant en partie ou en totalité l'accessoire (le foulard apparaît comme associé au vêtement sans recours à un accessoire de fixation), ou (B) verticalement, ce qui fait que les deux parties opposées du foulard tombent de part et d'autre de l'accessoire en laissant visible le dessus de l'accessoire (l'accessoire est encore mis en valeur).In fact, the new accessory concept according to the present invention makes it possible to radically modify the use of the scarf both by making it intrinsically more aesthetic (thanks to the fact that it is maintained in a completely surrounded manner and in the vicinity of center) and allowing the wearer to be able to change their position in relation to clothing ad infinitum. For example, if the accessory according to the invention is worn on a substantially horizontal area of the garment, that is to say on the shoulder or on the front of a skirt when the person is seated, the scarf has two opposite parts which fall in a natural drapery effect on either side of the accessory according to the invention, leaving visible the top of the accessory (the accessory is highlighted). On the other hand, if the accessory according to the invention is worn on a substantially vertical zone of the garment, for example on the front of a jacket or a blouse or on a skirt when the person is standing, there are still two Ways of fixing the accessories according to the invention: (A) horizontally, so that the two opposite parts of the scarf fall on the same side, the upper part coming to fall on the lower part by partially or entirely masking the accessory (the scarf appears as associated with the garment without the use of a fastening accessory), or (B) vertically, which means that the two opposite parts of the scarf fall on either side of the accessory leaving the top visible the accessory (the accessory is still highlighted).
L'invention n'est pas limitée aux modes de réalisation qui viennent d'être décrits simplement à titre d'illustration, mais l'invention s'étend à toutes les modifications ou à tous les
perfectionnements qui pourraient être envisagés dans le cadre de l'invention.
The invention is not limited to the embodiments which have just been described simply by way of illustration, but the invention extends to all modifications or to all improvements which could be envisaged in the context of the invention.
