A quick-release securing device is constructed of nylon strap having an openable loop at one end, and snap hook at the other end. The distance between the openable loop and the snap hook, and the circumference of the openable loop, is adjustable. The loop can be opened and closed using a buckle. A supplemental strap may be employed for releasably attaching items, such as boat fenders, to the securing device.

A bracelet is described including a first compartment configured to store a mask and second compartment configured to store a flask for dispensing a solution, such as for example an antibacterial gel. In one embodiment, the flask compartment may be worn on the side of the wrist adjacent the palm, so that pressing on the compartment can dispense solution directly into the palm of the wearer. The bracelet may have a variety fashionable and ornamental appearances with the first and/or second compartments built into a front or rear of the bracelet.

A size-adjustable fashion accessory includes an elongated strap having a plurality of catch features, such as raised or depressed features, disposed at spaced locations along a length of the elongated strap. A retainer is disposed at a first end section of the elongated strap that is configured to receive an opposing second end section of the elongated strap to form a loop configuration. The retainer includes an engagement element that resiliently deforms against at least one of the plurality of catch features upon insertion or removal of the second end section, providing a tactile engagement, such as a click or snap, when adjusting the size of the loop configuration. The size-adjustable fashion accessory may include a decorative charm accessory or the like that may be adapted to engage the elongated strap at various locations along its length or at the retainer.

The present invention relates to an ornamental connector for connecting an ornamental item to and elongate flexible member such as a strap, belt or chain. The ornamental connector includes abase including an aperture a recess for receiving the elongate flexible member, as well as an engaging arrangement for removably connecting an ornamental item. The ornamental connector can further include a locking arrangement for locking the ornamental connector to the base. The ornamental connector can further include a holding arrangement for preventing sliding movement of the ornamental connector along the elongate flexible member.

A connection arrangement for use with a wearable body harness has a first connector having a body with a first portion of a locking mechanism and a second connector having a body with a second portion of the locking mechanism. The first portion of the locking mechanism has a tab connected to the body of the first connector and a slot having a first portion extending through the body of the first connector and a second portion extending through the tab. The second portion of the locking mechanism has a tongue configured for being received through the first portion of the slot, and an intermediate connecting element having a first end connected to the body of the second connector and a second end connected to the tongue. The second end of the intermediate connecting element is offset from the body of the second connector.

A bracelet is described including a first compartment configured to store a mask and second compartment configured to store a flask for dispensing a solution, such as for example an antibacterial gel. In one embodiment, the flask compartment may be worn on the side of the wrist adjacent the palm, so that pressing on the compartment can dispense solution directly into the palm of the wearer. The bracelet may have a variety fashionable and ornamental appearances with the first and/or second compartments built into a front or rear of the bracelet.

Disclosed are a connecting apparatus for a watch strap that enables a user to simply replace a watch strap without a separation tool, and a watch strap with the connecting apparatus. The connecting apparatus connects a body of a watch and a watch strap, and includes at least: a tube having a first hole; a first pin inserted in and being able to protrude from a first end of the tube; a second pin inserted in and being able to protrude from a second end of the tube; a spring disposed between the first and second pins, providing elasticity to the first and second pins, in first and second directions, respectively; a protrusive member connected to the first pin and protruding through the first hole; and a slider connected to the protrusive member, moving the first pin in the second direction, and having a portion overlapping the first hole.

A tool organizer is configured to hold one or more tool having a through-hole. The tool organizer includes at least two braces and a resilient band. Each brace includes a neck and defines at least two slots provided on either side of the neck. The resilient band is configured to attachably couple to and detachably couple from the braces. Each of the at least two slots defines a retainment portion and a channel portion extending from the retainment portion to define an opening along an outer perimeter of the brace. A dimension of the channel portion is less than that of the retainment portion, and a section of the retainment portion is defined by the neck. The resilient band is attachable to wrap around the necks of the at least two braces and extend through the retainment portions of the slots and between the at least two braces.

The double-sided belt buckle includes a chape member, a frame, a prong, and a loop element. The chape member includes a hinge element, a first side, and a second side. The hinge element and the frame are pivotally joined together. The prong is pivotally joined to the frame for running through a hole along another end of the strap. A user may choose to use the first or second side of the chape member as the outward facing side. The prong then may be pushed so that the prong may freely swivel within the frame. After releasing the prong, the prong may be applied to fasten a strap of the belt buckle corresponding to the outward facing side, thereby enhancing the flexibility of the belt buckle.

A jewelry closure mechanism (e.g., clasp) may include a locking receptacle and a locking pin that operate together to provide a closure mechanism for a piece of jewelry. The closure mechanism may or may not include a hinge. In some implementations, a locking pin may extend from the second arm and be inserted into a locking receptacle formed in a second arm to lock the two components together. The locking receptacle may include one or more wires (e.g., spring and/or precast) that extend transversely to the direction of the locking receptacle. The closure mechanism may be used as a general jewelry closure device and/or to couple segments of jewelry together.
