An ornament for being strung on an elongated member includes a shell having a cavity and a first friction element. The ornament may be arranged in an un-assembled configuration, in which the first friction element is un-attached to the shell, and an assembled configuration, in which the first friction element is attached to the shell. The first friction element has a first retaining part, arranged in the cavity when the ornament is in the assembled configuration, and a first friction part attached to the first retaining part and comprising a first gripping surface for frictionally gripping a surface of the elongated member. The ornament, in the assembled configuration, is strung on the elongated member, and is releasably secured in a first location on the elongated member. The first friction part and the first retaining part have different material and/or mechanical properties in the unassembled configuration.

A panel of a vehicle may be provided with or configured to provide interactive skin. The interactive skin may be configured for accepting touch input from a user. The interactive skin may include one or more flexible layers and may include or be mounted under a transparent display cover layer such as a layer of clear glass or plastic. Interactive skin may include a touch-sensitive layer that allows a user to provide touch input to the panel of the vehicle. Display pixels on interactive skin may be used to display visual information to the user. The interactive skin may be configured for detecting a condition of at least one panel and generating an output function in response to the detected condition.

A jewelry combination comprising: a necklace; a pendant hanging from the necklace, wherein: the pendant comprises a body and a necklace guide mounted within the body: the necklace guide has a first side, a second side opposed to the first side, and a bearing surface extending from the first side to the second side; the necklace enters the body of the pendant, passes along the first side of the necklace guide, around the bearing surface of the necklace guide, along the second side of the necklace guide, and exits the body of the pendant; the bearing surface is configured to allow the necklace to freely slide around the necklace guide; a first strand having a first end attached to the pendant at a point along a first axis, wherein the first axis intersects the necklace where the necklace passes along the first side of the necklace guide; a second strand having a first end attached to the pendant at a point along a second axis, wherein the second axis intersects the necklace where the necklace passes along the second side of the necklace guide; and wherein the first axis is substantially parallel to the second axis.

The present invention relates generally to a coated jewelry article or a coated component of a jewelry article, comprising a jewelry article or a component of a jewelry article, a first metallic coating, and a second metallic coating.

The neck-worn hand sanitizer dispenser comprises a sanitizer vessel, a dispensing mechanism, and a neck strap. The neck-worn hand sanitizer dispenser may be adapted to be worn around a neck of a user via the neck strap such that the sanitizer vessel hangs in front of a chest of the user. The neck-worn hand sanitizer dispenser may be adapted to dispense a sanitizer liquid onto a hand of the user when the user triggers the dispensing mechanism by placing the hand beneath the sanitizer vessel. The dispensing mechanism may be disabled via a lock control to prevent dispensing the sanitizer liquid accidently.

A construct (10) is provided having an aesthetic form adapted to please a wearer and to be worn by the wearer. The construct provides a structure on which functional elements are integrated. The functional elements include several elements. A first element is a fluid reservoir. A second element is at least two fluids (12, 14) disposed in the fluid reservoir. A third element is a motion generator (22) having a state in equilibrium with respect to an attraction force and a further attraction or repulsion force when the construct is at rest, the motion generator causing an animation effect when the construct is moved relative to an attraction or repulsion force.

An ornamental device includes: diamonds disposed on a single support element in a specific physical arrangement, all the diamonds in the specific physical arrangement having a blue fluorescent equal to or stronger than strong blue, wherein all the diamonds in the specific physical arrangement shining clear under a visible light, and shining blue under ultraviolet radiation keeping the specific physical arrangement distinguished from a group of diamonds in the specific physical arrangement, the group of diamonds comprising a mixture of a diamond or diamonds having a blue fluorescence equal to or stronger than strong blue and a diamonds or diamonds not having a blue fluorescent equal to or stronger than strong blue.

An article of jewelry comprises a thin chain necklace surrounding the neck of the wearer. A simple mechanical closure or clasp allows the wearer to don and remove the necklace in a conventional manner. At the bottom of the front of the necklace is a pendant anchor which holds a suspended pendant and, at the same time, the pendant anchor and the pendant, minimize rotation of the necklace and its mechanical closure or clasp to remain behind the neck of the wearer. The pendant anchor is no more than the geometrical thickness of the necklace at its point of attachment and is integrally secured to the descending ends of the front of the neck segments. Preferably, the pendant anchor is in the shape of an “O,” a “W,” a “V,” or a “U.” In some embodiments the pendant anchor is provided with protrusions for further maintaining the suspended pendant on the pendant anchor. In some embodiments, the pendant anchor is welded by small “o” rings to the end links of the chain of the necklace.

Disclosed is a mobile support mechanism for an object, adapted for being integrated into a wearable piece of jewelry, including a support system bearing an object that is intended to be animated in rotation about a first axis of rotation under the effect of an unbalance within the support system. The support system includes a first frame that is pivotably mounted on a chassis element about the first axis of rotation, and an inner frame that is pivotably mounted in the first frame about a second pivot axis which is substantially orthogonal with respect to the first pivot axis. The object is mounted to a first extremity of a shaft mounted in the inner frame, a second extremity of the shaft being supported by an eccentric element pivotably mounted to a static frame element at a rotation point such that it can freely rotate therearound.
