Abstract: An arrangement includes two components (3, 4; 3?, 4?) of a timepiece component and an axis of rotation (A1; A1?), the two components (3, 4; 3?, 4?) being linked to one another by an elastic articulated link (100; 100?) about the axis of rotation (A1; A1?), the arrangement also includes an elastic element (10, 10?; 10?) such that the relative movement of the two components (3, 4; 3?, 4?) takes place against the elastic element (10, 10?; 10?), wherein the elastic element (10, 10?; 10?) includes at least two superposed springs (10a, 10b, 10a?, 10b?; 10a?, 10b?), each of these at least two springs (10a, 10b, 10a?, 10b?; 10a?, 10b?) taking the form of a distinct element.

Abstract: A coupler for coupling to a provided article of wear comprises a base plate and a clip. The coupler may be configured to provide a mount interface on an article of wear for an accessory to mount to. The base plate may comprise one or more structures configured to engage one or more respective portions of the clip over the provided article of wear. The clip may be shaped to interlock with the structures of the base plate. The clip may engage the base plate in a series of actions. The series of actions may be repeated in reverse to disengage the clip from the base plate. The series of actions for disengaging the clip from the base plate may reduce a likelihood of the clip in being unintentionally decoupled from the base plate, thereby increasing a likelihood that the coupler remains coupled to an article of wear.

Abstract: Provided is a 360-degree rotatable accessory. The 360 degree rotatable accessory can be used for various purposes such as a decoration of a bag, or a finger ring, a necklace, a bracelet, and an earring, can be rotated a predetermined angle, that is, 360 degrees around a coupling portion, that is, a body, and can be transformed into various shapes because it can be rotated a desired angle and firmly maintained at the angle, thereby having high commercial value and quality.

Abstract: A shoelace retainer is provided for use with a shoe. The shoelace retainer generally includes a base defining at least one channel for receiving a first portion of a shoelace therein while the shoelace is coupled to a shoe, thereby coupling the shoelace retainer to the shoe, and a cap associated with the base and defining at least one receptacle relative to the base where the at least one receptacle is configured to receive a second portion of the shoelace when the base is coupled to the shoe.

Abstract: A fastener system shifting shear stresses away from a collet body and provides clamping action to targeted structures. The fastener system includes feet in the collet body that mate with openings in a sleeve at least partially surrounding the collet body. The sleeve or the collet body includes interior threads that engage with a stud that is configured to extend through the collet body and bend the feet such that they project outward from the sleeve openings in an engaged configuration.

Abstract: One or more ring re-sizing attachments are appended to the internal circumference of a ring band so that a ring band large enough to pass over a knuckle remains comfortably fit around the finger below the knuckle. Each attachment includes a base defining an internal volume surrounded by a raised wall. A button slidingly engaged in the base internal volume defines an inner volume, and one or more springs are held in the button inner volume. As the one or more springs are compressed, the button moves into the internal volume of the base, increasing the space within the band to move the band beyond a knuckle. Once the band is beyond the knuckle, the spring(s) urge the button upwardly, causing the lips of the button to contact ledges or lips projecting from the sidewall of the base, to tighten the fit of the ring band around the finger.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a low profile expandable ring structure comprising a plurality of coupled blocks that each have a certain degree of translational movement with respect to each other. Each block has one or more downward curved loops or tubes protruding on the front side of the block which are inserted into openings on an adjacent block. A tensioned spring, passed through an internal channel of the coupled blocks, maintains the ring structure in a closed appearance but allows for expansion of the expandable ring structure through the translational movement of the blocks. The low-profile nature allows the expandable ring structure to be comfortable for the wearer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a wrist band or other wearable accessory that includes insect repelling material.

Abstract: A necklace keeper or clasp for securing a jewelry item and for receiving one or more charms. The clasp includes a support member constructed of a support ring that extends less than a full circle so as to define a support ring gap, and a top head piece that extends upwardly from the support ring. A sliding lock pad engages with the top head piece and is normally biased to an extended position. A guide ring is providing having a channel for receiving a support ring and extending less than a full circle so as define a guide ring gap. The sliding lock pad has a lock position in which it engages the support ring to inhibit relative rotation between the support ring and the guide ring; and has a release position in which there is relative rotation between the support ring and the guide ring so that the respective supporting ring gap and guide ring gap each align.

Abstract: Different types of gallium nitride (GaN) gemstones can be produced synthetically for crafting jewelry. With some examples, a GaN gemstone can include a crystal (such as a single crystal that is typically used in semiconductor devices or other types of electronic components, e.g., electronic components with optical properties). The crystal of the gemstone can be grown to be relatively pure and translucent GaN as well as cut and polished to have facets of a gemstone. Also, the crystal can include doped GaN—such as GaN doped with indium or aluminum. The doping of the GaN can be to an extent to produce a visibly discernable color (such a tint of blue).
