Locking System for a Piece of Jewellery

Abstract

A locking system ( 2 ) for a piece of jewelry, including mutually complementary interacting locking parts ( 4, 6 ) shaped as coupling parts of a male and female type, where each locking part ( 4, 6 ) additionally includes polarized magnets ( 10, 12 ), where each locking part ( 4, 6 ) opposite the coupling parts additionally includes end parts ( 8 ) with connecting means ( 9 ) for connecting the end parts ( 8 ) with one or more pieces of jewelry, e.g. in the form of necklaces, bracelets, ankle bands, headbands, belts or the like.

       12 . A locking system according to  claim 11 , comprising at least one intermediate piece which includes at least one additional coupling part for connecting with either one of the coupling parts or with a locking part of an attachment. 
   
   
       13 . A locking system according to  claim 12 , comprising a tubular intermediate piece for enclosing one of the at least one intermediate piece with a radial eyelet for connecting with the attachment. 
   
   
       14 . A locking system according to  claim 11 , wherein the end parts at a side facing the coupling parts include a connecting flange for engaging the end parts by screw threads in the end parts. 
   
   
       15 . A locking system according to  claim 11 , wherein the end parts at a side facing the coupling parts include a connecting flange for engaging the end parts by glued faces in the end parts. 
   
   
       16 . A locking system according to  claim 11 , wherein the end parts at a side facing away from the coupling parts include a central hole for receiving end parts of at least one piece of jewelry. 
   
   
       17 . A locking system according to  claim 11 , wherein the loose end parts at a side facing away from the coupling parts include a projecting collar or flange for receiving end parts of at least one piece of jewelry. 
   
   
       18 . A locking system according to  claim 11 , wherein the loose end parts at a side facing away from the coupling parts include a centrally projecting tube for receiving end parts of at least one piece of jewelry. 
   
   
       19 . A locking system according to  claim 11 , comprising separate parts of jewelry with coupling parts of a male and female type for connection with at least one piece of jewelry. 
   
   
       20 . A locking system according to  claim 11 , wherein separate parts of jewelry with mutually hingedly connected spatial parts include a cylindrical hollow for receiving the coupling parts of a male and female type with opposing ends for connection with one or more pieces of jewelry. 
   
   
       21 . A locking system, comprising mutually complementary interacting locking parts shaped as a male and female type, with each of the locking parts including polarized magnets, wherein each locking part is opposite coupling parts and additionally includes end parts with means for connecting the end parts with at least one attachment. 
   
   
       22 . A locking system according to  claim 21 , comprising at least one intermediate piece which includes at least one additional coupling part for connecting with either one of the coupling parts or with a locking part of that at least one attachment. 
   
   
       23 . A locking system according to  claim 22 , comprising a tubular intermediate piece for enclosing one of the at least one intermediate piece with a radial eyelet for connecting with the at least one attachment. 
   
   
       24 . A locking system according to  claim 21 , wherein the end parts at a side facing the coupling parts include a connecting flange for engaging the end parts by screw threads in the end parts. 
   
   
       25 . A locking system according to  claim 21 , wherein the end parts at a side facing the coupling parts include a connecting flange for engaging the end parts by glued faces in the end parts. 
   
   
       26 . A locking system according to  claim 21 , wherein the end parts at a side facing away from the coupling parts include a central hole for receiving end parts of at least one attachment. 
   
   
       27 . A locking system according to  claim 21 , wherein the loose end parts at a side facing away from the coupling parts include a projecting collar or flange for receiving end parts of at least one attachment. 
   
   
       28 . A locking system according to  claim 21 , wherein the loose end parts at a side facing away from the coupling parts include a centrally projecting tube for receiving end parts of at least one attachment.
