Abstract

A wearable decorative element comprising at least one ring-shaped elastic member, supporting a plurality of female elements, each of the female elements comprises a hollow body extended between a first and second through opening obtained between two opposite lateral walls for the passage and sliding of said elastic member, a plurality of hollow male elements arranged on the elastic member alternating with the female elements and adapted to allow the passage and sliding of the elastic member therein, each of the male elements fitting in a sliding manner at least partly inside one of either the first through opening or the second through opening of one of the adjacent female elements, each of the male elements comprises at least two toothed elements configured, to fit inside the hollow body to limit the mutual sliding between the female elements on the male elements at a predefined maximum distance between the adjacent female elements.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 ) A wearable decorative element comprising:
 at least one ring-shaped elastic member, supporting a plurality of female elements, wherein each of said female elements comprises a hollow body extended between a first and a second through opening obtained between two opposite lateral walls for the passage and sliding of said elastic member,   a plurality of hollow male elements arranged on said elastic member alternating with said female elements and adapted to allow the passage and sliding of said elastic member therein, each of said male elements fitting in a sliding manner at least partly inside one of either said first through opening or said second through opening of one of said adjacent female elements, wherein
 each of said male elements comprises at least two toothed elements configured, in use, to fit inside said hollow body to limit the mutual sliding between said female elements on said male elements at a predefined maximum distance between said adjacent female elements. 
   
     
     
         2 ) A decorative element according to  claim 1 , wherein each of said male elements extends between a first and a second terminal portion wherein are obtained a first and a second opening communicating with each other for the passage and sliding of said elastic member, each of said male elements being comprised between a first and a second female element. 
     
     
         3 ) The wearable decorative element according to  claim 1 , wherein said first terminal portion of said male element is associated with said second through opening of said first female element and said second terminal portion of said male element is associated in a sliding manner with said first through opening of said second female element so that at least said second female element can slide at least partly said male element to vary the mutual distance between said female elements. 
     
     
         4 ) The wearable decorative element according to  claim 1 , wherein said male element comprises two abutment elements configured to fit sliding to size in one of either said first through opening or said second through opening. 
     
     
         5 ) A decorative element according to  claim 4 , wherein said toothed elements are interposed between said abutment elements. 
     
     
         6 ) A decorative element according to  claim 1 , wherein each of said toothed elements comprises a first longitudinal portion associated with said second through opening and a second transverse portion associated orthogonally with said first portion and protruding cantilevered from the latter. 
     
     
         7 ) The decorative element according to  claim 6 , wherein said toothed elements are movable between:
 an insertion configuration wherein said toothed elements are approached to each other to allow the insertion thereof into said hollow body through said first through opening along a direction of insertion ; and   a clamping configuration wherein said toothed elements are moved away from each other and abut against the internal walls of said hollow body by clamping there.   
     
     
         8 ) The decorative element according to  claim 7 , wherein said first through opening comprises two opposite abutment surfaces which are obtained internally to said hollow body, in said clamping configuration said toothed elements abutting respectively against said abutment surfaces. 
     
     
         9 ) The decorative element according to  claim 8 , wherein, in said clamping configuration, each of said second transverse portions abuts against one of said abutment surfaces respectively, said first longitudinal portions being divergent with respect to said direction of insertion. 
     
     
         10 ) A decorative element according to  claim 1 , wherein each of said toothed elements is substantially L-shaped. 
     
     
         11 ) Th edecorative element according to  claim 8 , wherein, in said clamping configuration, said toothed elements have a maximum mutual distance which is bigger than the distance between said abutment surfaces. 
     
     
         12 ) The decorativeelement  claim 8 , according to 
 in said insertion configuration the maximum mutual distance between said toothed elements is less than the distance between said abutment surfaces of said first through opening ; and   in said clamping configuration, the maximum mutual distance between said toothed elements is bigger than the distance between said abutment surfaces.   
     
     
         13 ) The decorativeelement  claim 2 , according to wherein said maximum mutual distance between said female elements is substantially corresponding to the length of said male element. 
     
     
         14 ) A decorative element  claim 1 , according to wherein said female element has at least one setting seat for setting at least one gem. 
     
     
         15 ) The decorative element according to  claim 2 , wherein said first terminal portion of said male element is locked together with said second female element. 
     
     
         16 ) The decorative element  claim 2 , according to wherein said first female element and said male element are made in a single monolithic body wherein said male element is projecting with respect to said first female element and configured to fit into one of said adjacent female elements.
