DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0047] FIG. 1 shows a lateral view of a preferred embodiment example of the band-like element 10 according to the invention and, at the same time, of a preferred embodiment example of the bridle headband 20 according to the invention showing individual representations of its elements.

[0048] Herein, the band-like element 10 is made of leather and serves to form the bridle headband 20.

[0049] According to the invention, a magnetic element 14, 114 is arranged at each one of the two ends 12, 112 of the band-like element 10 for releasably attaching the respective end 12, 112 to a second magnetic element. Herein, the second magnetic elements are not shown, as they are arranged in the counterparts for the band-like element 10 described further below.

[0050] The band-like element 10, on its upper surface, comprises decorative elements 16, which herein are formed as decorative stones or glass stones.

[0051] In this example, the ends 12, 112 of the band-like element 10 have been flattened and glued to the upper surface of the associated magnetic elements 14, 114.

[0052] Thus, a band-like element 10 is realized which can be retained only at its respective ends 12, 112, thus having maximum flexibility along its longitudinal axis. Simple and rapid replaceability is also provided.

[0053] The preferred embodiment example of the bridle headband 20 according to the invention, of which the individual parts are also shown in FIG. 1, herein as a horse bridle headband, first comprises the band-like element 10 in the center.

[0054] Furthermore, the band-like headband 20 comprises two counterparts 22, 122, which each include a second magnetic element (not visible here), wherein one respective end 12, 112 of the band-like element 10 can releasably be attached in one counterpart 22, 122, namely the second magnetic element of the counterpart 22, 122.

[0055] For this purpose, each counterpart 22, 122 is configured as a sleeve 24, 124 in which the second magnetic element is arranged. An end 12, 112 of the band-like element 10 can be inserted into this sleeve 24, 124 for releasably attaching the end 12, 112 to the counterpart 22, 122. Thereby, the magnetic element 14, 114 comes to rest against the second magnetic element inside the counterpart 22, 122 or the sleeve 24, 124, and a holding force acting in the longitudinal direction of the band-like element 10 is built up between the resulting magnetic pairings.

[0056] For attachment to a bridle, the counterpart 22, 122 comprises a loop 26, 126 the opening of which is substantially oriented perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the band-like element 10.

[0057] Furthermore, the counterpart 22, 122 is also formed of leather herein, and more specifically comprises a strip of material made of leather, the strip of material having a double layered region 28, 128 for forming the sleeve 24, 124 and for forming the loop 26, 126.

[0058] The second magnetic element is thereby accommodated within the double layered region 28, 128.

[0059] Alternatively, the bridle headband 20 shown in FIG. 1 can also be generally understood as an embodiment of a decorative band 40 according to the invention, namely generally comprising a band-like element 10 according to the invention and two associated counterparts 22, 122 according to the invention.

[0060] FIG. 2 shows a top view of the preferred embodiment example of the band-like element 10 according to the invention of FIG. 1 and, at the same time, of the preferred embodiment example of the bridle headband 20 according to the invention of FIG. 1 as a representation with the elements being brought together.

[0061] In other words, the ends 12, 112 of the band-like element 10 herein have been inserted into the counterparts 22, 122 and the sleeves 24, 124, respectively, as intended, resulting in that the magnetic elements 14, 114 (no longer visible here) of the band-like element 10 have been brought close to the respective associated second magnetic elements (not visible) of the counterparts 22, 122. Due to the magnetic attraction thus generated between the magnetic element 14, 114 and the associated second magnetic element, the band-like element 10 is flexibly held in the longitudinal direction, but at the same time is securely and also releasably retained in the counterparts 22, 122. strip of material

[0062] The illustration of FIG. 2, as a result, shows the external view of the object, which external view results from the use, as intended, of the embodiment of the bridle headband 20, as shown, or of an embodiment of a decorative band 40 according to the invention.

[0063] With regard to FIG. 2, it should otherwise be pointed out that reference signs already shown in FIG. 1 and already explained in this respect above have in part not been applied again in FIG. 2 for reasons of clarity and/or are in part not explained again on the basis of FIG. 2. To explain such reference signs and the associated technical features, reference is fully made to the above description of FIG. 1 to avoid repetition. This also correspondingly applies to the following FIGS. 3A, 3B and 4.

[0064] FIG. 3A shows a schematic sectional view, as viewed from the side, of one end 12 of the band-like element 10 of FIGS. 1 and 2 in a juxtaposition with the associated counterpart 22 of the bridle headband 20 or an embodiment of the decorative band 40 according to the invention.

[0065] As described above, the end 12 of the band-like element 10 comprises a magnetic element 14. The opposite counterpart 22 comprises a strip of material made of leather, the strip of material having a double-layered portion 28 for forming the sleeve 24 and for forming the loop 26.

[0066] The second magnetic element 32 is thereby accommodated within the double layered region 28. By inserting low sidewalls 34 between the double layers of the strip of material, a channel 36 is formed into which the end 12 is insertable. Furthermore, space is thus provided for the second magnetic element 32 which is arranged and bonded in the rear portion of the channel 36.

[0067] Alternatively or additionally, the second magnetic element 32 can also be sewn into the counterpart 22.

[0068] In case that a decorative band 40 is to be realized in general, or also in case of a bridle headband wherein the counterparts are to be firmly integrated into the bridle, an embodiment of the counterpart 22 can be realized without loop 26, but otherwise as shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B.

[0069] FIG. 3B shows the object of FIG. 3A, wherein, herein, the end 12 of the band-like element 10 is inserted into the associated counterpart 22 of the bridle headband 20. The magnetic element 14 of the end 12 has been pulled onto the second magnetic element 32 of the counterpart 22. Due to the magnetic attraction thus established between the elements 14, 32, the end 12 is thus securely, but on the other hand in a quickly releasable manner, retained in the counterpart 22.

[0070] FIG. 4 shows a preferred embodiment of a decorative band 40 according to the invention, which is attached to a base body 50 extending in a longitudinal direction, in this case a belt.

[0071] The decorative band 40 is preferably provided for base bodies 50 which extend in a longitudinal direction, especially belts, bracelets or necklaces. Appropriate base bodies 50 can thus be easily and quickly decorated with replaceable decorative bands 40 or replaceable band-like elements 10, which preferably carry decorative elements 16.

[0072] Herein, the decorative band 40 is attached to the upper side and in the longitudinal direction of the base body 50. The central portion of the decorative band 40 may preferably comprise a band-like element 10 already described while making reference to the preceding figures.

[0073] Furthermore, two counterparts 222, 322 are provided on the base body. These counterparts each comprise a second magnetic element (not visible here) in the already-described manner. The counterparts 222, 322 can be configured as described in FIGS. 3A and 3B, but the loop 26 there may be omitted.

[0074] Herein, too, one respective end 12, 112 of each of the band-like elements 10 is releasably attached to or in a counterpart 222, 322, namely the second magnetic element of the counterpart 222, 322.

[0075] The base body 50, which extends in a longitudinal direction, herein as a belt, but alternatively, for example, also as a bracelet or necklace, thus on its upper side comprises a decorative band 40 attached in the longitudinal direction of the base body 50, the band-like element 10 of which is securely retained magnetically, but on the other hand can quickly and conveniently be replaced.
