  • Patent number: 4528726
    Abstract: A cuff link removably attachable to a shirt cuff which has one buttonhole only comprises a link member detachably mountable on one cuff end in resiliently clamping relationship and a decorative member removably attachable to the link member on the other cuff. The link member includes a link post having a semispherical head insertable through the buttonhole in the other cuff into a circular hole in the decorative member and retainable therein by a spring fitted in grooves in the head. The decorative member can be attached to the link member simply by pushing them together until the spring is fitted in the grooves. For detaching the decorative member from the link member, they are relatively turned until the spring is displaced out of the grooves, whereupon the head can be pushed out of the circular hole under the resiliency of the spring.
