DESCRIPTION
For promoting an understanding of the principles of the invention, reference will now be made to the embodiment illustrated in the figures and specific language will be used to describe them. It will nevertheless be understood that no limitation of the scope of the invention is thereby intended. Such alterations and further modifications in the illustrated system, and such further applications of the principles of the invention as would normally occur to those skilled in the art are to be construed as being within the scope of the present invention.
It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory of the invention and are not intended to be restrictive thereof.
The terms "comprises", "comprising", or any other variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process or method that comprises a list of steps does not include only those steps but may include other steps not expressly listed or inherent to such a process or method. Similarly, one or more sub-systems or elements or structures or components preceded by "comprises... a" does not, without more constraints, preclude the existence of other, sub-systems, elements, structures, components, additional sub-systems, additional elements, additional structures, or additional components. Appearances of the phrase "in an embodiment", "in another embodiment" and similar language throughout this specification may, but not necessarily do, all refer to the same embodiment.
Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this invention belongs. The system, methods, and examples provided herein are only illustrative and not intended to be limiting.
Embodiments of the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the accompanying figures.
The present invention finds direct application in the fashion industry, catering to individuals who wear earrings as a form of personal adornment. It offers a solution for those who desire a more secure earring locking mechanism, ensuring that their earrings remain in place even during active or vigorous movements.
The double notch thread post is suitable for a wide range of earring styles, including stud earrings, dangle earrings, shoulder duster. It can be utilized in various materials, such as gold, silver, platinum, or other metals, as well as in earrings featuring gemstones, pearls, or intricate designs.
The present invention discloses a triple safety double notch thread post. In one embodiment, the present invention discloses an earring having thread and notch lock arrangement. The lock arrangement is carried out using a stem (2) of Fig. 1 with the earing and a locking piece (4), wherein the stem (2) has one or more notch (3). Particularly, (3a and 3b) threads placed at a predefined distance with respect to each other, and the locking piece have locking threads (7), and complimentary locking structure to be onto the notch. The locking arrangement has two notches (3a and 3b), wherein the first notch helps in securing the locking piece to the earring stem and the second notch helps in securing the lock when the locking piece comprises counter threads counter to the threads (7) which complete goes over the threads (7) of the earring stem. The locking piece (4) comprising a body with a through-going opening (5) at a base disk for the passage therethrough of the second end of the post; and a plurality of guards (6) affixed to the base disk of the lock and configured to limit the extent of travel of the second end of the post beyond a first notch as depicted (8) in the figure 3. The opening in the base disk of the lock comprises a counter thread to lock the locking piece with the threads (7) of the earing stem (2). The notches (3a and 3b) on the stem (2) are shaped in different manner. The notches can have a slanting structure as shown in Fig. 1 (3a and 3b) or like a groove as shown in Fig. 2 (3a and 3b). The two notches are placed one after another, further followed by the threads on the earring steam notch is placed before the thread lock while making arranging the lock. The Figure 3 shows the butterfly lock before (04) and after locking (05).
Figure 4 illustrates a distance of the notches in the thread post. (A) illustrates a distance between the end of the ornamental surface screw threads (7). (B) illustrates a length of the screw threads (7). (C) illustrates the distance between an end of the threaded screw (7) and the opposed second end of the extending stem. The length (A) ranges from 2.5mm to 5mm, the length (B) ranges from 1.7mm to 4mm. The length (C) ranges from 3mm to 4mm.
Figure 5 illustrates distance (D) between the first notch (3a) and the second notch (3b) and the range of the distance is 1.5mm to 2mm.
Figure 6 illustrates two different types of locking systems i.e., threaded locking system and pushback locking system.
