Flexible jewelry connections between jewelry portions may be formed through use of corresponding a cup segment and a barb segment. A cup segment has a plurality of legs that connect to a cup, and a barb segment has a plurality of barbs that defines a barb channel for that barb segment. The cup segment may be arranged above the barb segment along a common axis, such that the cup is positioned below the plurality of barbs, and the barb channel is positioned over the top surface of the cup. In this manner, the upper and lower portions form an overlapping arrangement. When the effective diameter of the barb channel is less than the effective diameter of the cup, the cup is prevented from moving upward through the barb channel, thus forming a connection between the upper jewelry portion and the lower jewelry portion.

An audio device worn in a piercing in an ear of a user. The audio device extends through the piercing and includes a wireless communications unit disposed at a first end and a sound-production unit coupled to an opposite second end thereof. The signal path from a master device to the sound-production unit for producing audio outputs thus passes through the pinna of the ear. The sound-production unit may include an ornamental cover such that the device can be worn as jewelry. The speaker and the wireless communications unit may be removable from a body of the device to enable the body to be worn alone as jewelry and to allow replacement of the wireless communications unit with a wired connection. The device may include a control surface useable to provide inputs to the master device coupled to the device.

A turning mechanism for a piece of jewelry, showing one of two opposing faces, includes a bale having a central opening and two opposite ends. At least one barbell-shaped pin has spheres at each end. The pin passes through at least one of the two opposite ends of the bale. One sphere projects into the central opening and secures the pin to the bale while the other sphere secures the piece of jewelry to the bale so that the piece of jewelry may be swiveled by a wearer to show another one of the two opposing faces. The faces may be “day” and “night”. The piece of jewelry may be a pendant on a necklace, an earring, a bracelet, or a ring. There may be a thickened portion of a trapezoidal shape at one of the two opposite ends of the bale to resist stresses and to prevent breakage of the pin.

A jewelry item has a ring part pivotally attached to a closure at one end. The closure spans the continuity of the ring from an end of the ring part and comprises a ring continuation arm extending in continuity of the ring and pivotally attached to and of the ring part at a pivoted connection. The closure further comprises a bias arm extending along with the ring continuation arm along said ring continuity. The bias arm comprises a spring part and a lever part pivotally attached to each other. A connection between said lever part and the ring part is rigid, so that as the ring part is opened, said lever part is configured to rotate inwardly towards an interior of said item. The spring part has a natural shape of smaller circumference than the ring part so that once a certain extent is reached, the spring part pulls the lever part towards the spring part in order to allow the spring part to attain its smaller diameter and thus establish a stable open position. The lever part further on closure of the ring part, is configured to push the spring part outwardly towards the ring continuation arm to establish a second stable position to close the closure. Another jewelry item comprising a spring arm pivoted to said continuation at a first location thereon and further pivoted to its ring part at a second location is disclosed. A method of manufacturing a closure for a jewelry item, a finding for an earring, a kit of parts constructed to form the finding and an earring constructed from the kit of parts and a mounting are also disclosed.
摘要:
A jewelry item has a closure that uses shape memory to provide two stable positions. For example, an earring has a setting and a pin, and the closure closes the pin over the ear. The closure consists of a leaf spring extending outwardly in a first loop part from a first location on the setting and looping back in a second loop part to a second location adjacent the first location on the setting. The loop parts each have shape memory and are set with different remembered shapes. The two different remembered shapes work against each other to flip the closure between two stable positions, a first position in which the closure connects to the pin to close the earring and a second position in which the closure is spaced away from the pin to open the earring. The design is particularly suitable for a huggie style earring.
