A jewelry clasp for securing a first end of an elongated member of a bracelet or a necklace to a second end of the elongated member comprises a female part and a male part. One of the female and male parts comprises a first magnet and the other of the female and male parts comprises a part magnetically attractable by the first magnet. The female part comprises a housing and a hinged lid, the hinged lid being pivotable between a locking state and a releasing state and comprising the first magnet or the part magnetically attractable by the first magnet. When the female part is open, the male part can be inserted in an axial direction into the housing, and when the female part is closed and the male part is inserted into the housing, the male part is locked to the female part.

The inventive disclosures described herein pertains to an improved clasp-type device for connecting two ends of a wrap-around personal-adornment/jewelry item, such as a necklace, bracelet, or anklet. The improved jewelry clasp provides for both easy and secure coupling of two ends of a wrap-around jewelry item, while providing a decorative “hiding” of the clasp. In variations, the improved jewelry clasp can appear as just one of several ingots/charms that the wrap-around jewelry item may contain. Various other practical applications of the improved jewelry clasp are also disclosed.

A buckle includes a folding member, a buckle cover pivotably linked to the folding member, a slide plate supported slidably relative to the buckle cover in the longitudinal direction of the band, and a swing arm rotatably supported by the buckle cover. The slide plate has a plurality of groove sections provided along the longitudinal direction. The swing arm includes a base, an arm section, an engagement click, and an operation strip, and is supported rotatably in a first rotational direction in which the engagement click engages with any of the groove sections and in a second rotational direction in which the engagement click separates from the groove section. The folding member includes a protruding section that comes into contact with the operation strip to rotate the swing arm in the second rotational direction when the folding member is rotated relative to the buckle cover.

A miniaturized coupling for jewelry includes a male coupling and a female coupling, each of which is millimeter-sized or sub-millimeter-sized and each of which is attached to or suited to be attached to a respective jewelry component. The male coupling has a locking member configured to be inserted into the female coupling through an opening into an interior of the female coupling. A resiliently-biased, snap connector located in the interior of the female coupling, so constructed that when the locking member is inserted into the female coupling it initially moves and then is retained by the snap connector. An actuating pin in the female coupling is configured to move the snap connector to release the locking member and thereby disengage the male and female couplings from each other. The actuating pin has an outer surface accessible at an outer surface of the female coupling.

A jewelry clasp includes a female end component having a first push-button fastening means and a male end component that is releasably securable within the female end component. The male end component has a second push-button fastening means that engages a portion of the first push-button fastening means. The engaging portion of the first push-button fastening means is movable between a locked position and an unlocked position. An ornamental component for jewelry that has an elongate member includes a housing, a channel passing through the housing, and a slot within the housing. The slot is substantially parallel to the channel and passes through a wall of the housing to the channel.

The present application relates to a wearable device, a strap, and an engaging mechanism. The wearable device includes a watch body and a strap. The strap includes a strap body, a peg, a eject pin, and a linkage component. The strap body is provided with a receiving space, and the strap body is provided with a peg-sliding hole and a first through hole. One end of the peg passes through a peg-sliding hole and the other end is located in a receiving space of a watch body; the eject pin is located in the receiving space and can pass through the first through hole; the peg is configured to drive the eject pin to pop out from the first through hole via the linkage component and engage with the installation groove; the peg is further configured to drive the eject pin to move towards the receiving space.

A side-release buckle includes a plug and a socket for inserting and engaging the plug, and when a cross section of the engaging surface is observed from an in-plane direction of the first mold mating surface defined by a first parting line of the plug, and from an direction perpendicular to an insertion direction, a surface to be engaged is located on the opposite side to a first belt winding portion with respect to the first mold mating surface, and has a first engaging surface forming an angle A.sub.1 with the first mold mating surface of 87° or more and 90° or less.

A jewelry clasp for securing a first end of an elongated member of a bracelet or a necklace to a second end of the elongated member includes a female part and a male part. One of the female and male parts includes a first magnet and the other of the female and male parts includes a part magnetically attractable by the first magnet. The female part includes a housing and a hinged lid, the hinged lid being pivotable between a locking state and a releasing state and including the first magnet or the part magnetically attractable by the first magnet. When the female part is open, the male part can be inserted in an axial direction into the housing, and when the female part is closed and the male part is inserted into the housing, the male part is locked to the female part.
