ABSTRACT:
A coupling device for the opposed ends of bracelets and similar articles of jewelry of the type employing spring rings and associated eyelets and particularly for two-part bracelets the arcuate halves of which are rigid and connected in end-to-end fashion by a laterally inflexible hinge which maintains them at all times, whether the bracelets are open or closed, in coplanar relationship. Forward entry of the spring ring into its associated eyelet by a wedge action, reinforcement of substantially the entire length of the spring ring plunger by the eyelet to resist rearward or tensional uncoupling of the bracelet parts, and functional and decorative concealment of both the spring ring and its associated eyelet to prevent accidental retraction of the spring ring plunger constitute the principal features of the coupling device.
