Description

A ornamental chain

The present invention relates to a decorative chain to be worn on a bracelet, a necklace, etc., and more particularly, to a decorative chain which can be used as an ornamental jewelry, .

The ornamental chain is worn on the body, such as a necklace, a bracelet, a footrest, etc., and the jewel houses accommodating the upper surface portion of the jewel so as to be exposed to the outside are connected by a connecting piece to form a chain.

One example of such a decorative chain is disclosed in Korean Utility Model Laid-open No. 91-10606 and shown in Figs. This is because the contact pieces 5 and 5a forming the left and right side walls are formed on the right and left sides of the front and rear peripheral walls 3 and 3a and the engagement piece 4 is projected on all four sides to form the cap type jewel case 2, The front and rear main walls 3 and 3a are pressed against each other so that the connecting pieces 6 and 5 are inserted into the connecting holes 5a and 5a, 7) 7a are formed and the connecting piece 6 is engaged with the connecting hole 7a (7a).

A common point of the disclosed decorative chains is that each jewel house is connected to the connecting pieces through the center.

Referring to FIG. 3, when the decorative chain as described above is worn as a necklace, the jewel house is turned upside down from the neck to the neck side, so that the top surface of the jewelry is not visible at the lower side of the chain and the chain is twisted There arises a problem that the tallness is lost.

The left side of Fig. 3 shows a front view of a loop type chain seen from the front of the wearer when worn as a necklace, and the right side shows the back side of the chain. The center of gravity of each jewel housing 2 in which the jewel J is accommodated becomes closer to the lower curve section B than to the upper end section of the necklace in the upper straight side section A of the necklace, The jewel case 2 is turned upside down, so that the upper surface of the gemstone J is not seen from the front face, and the gauze J is entirely torn off as a whole.

This is because the connecting piece 6 connecting each jewel housing 2 is connected at the lower center of the jewel housing 2 so that in the curved section b below the chain the weight of the jewel located above the connecting piece 6 This is due to the phenomenon that the jewel house 2 moves in the direction of gravity.
