Abstract
A piece of eyelash jewelry is disclosed, having a jewelry substrate, which has a first magnetic means with a first holding surface, and having a fastening part, which has a second magnetic means with a polarity that is opposite from that of the first means and has a second holding surface, the two magnetic means of the jewelry substrate and fastening part being embodied such that by means of magnetic interaction, they clamp at least one eyelash that can be placed between their opposing holding surfaces in order to thus fasten the piece of eyelash jewelry to the eyelashes. In order to increase the reliability of the piece of eyelash jewelry, it is proposed that the jewelry substrate have a flange, which protrudes from the first holding surface and thus forms a stop for the fastening part.

Description
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0016] The subject of the invention is shown in greater detail in the figures by way of example based on an embodiment variant. In the drawings:
[0017] FIGS. 1 and 2 show enlarged cross-sectional views of the piece of eyelash jewelry according to the invention on an eye,
[0018] FIG. 3 shows an enlarged top view of the piece of eyelash jewelry according to the invention.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0019] FIG. 1 shows a piece of eye lash jewelry 1 according to the invention for fastening jewelry elements 2 or decoration elements 2 to the eyelashes 3 of an eyelid 4having a jewelry substrate 5 and a fastening part 6. The jewelry substrate 5 has a first magnetic means 7, which constitutes a first holding surface 8 on the jewelry substrate 5. The fastening part 6 in turn has a second magnetic means 9, which constitutes a second holding surface 10 on the fastening part 6. The jewelry substrate 5 is provided for a jewelry element 2 or decoration element 2 and for this purpose, can, for example, also have a socket or setting, not shown in detail, for the insertion of the jewelry element 2 or decoration element 2. In order to fasten the piece of eyelash jewelry 1 to the eyelashes 3 of an eyelid 4, the jewelry substrate 5 and fastening part 6 are positioned against each other with holding surfaces 8, 10 facing each otherin the exemplary embodiment, the fastening part 6 is positioned above the eyelashes 3 and the jewelry substrate 5 is positioned below them. The magnetic force of the magnetic means 7, 9, which acts via the holding surfaces 8, 10, thus acts along a holding direction 12 between the jewelry substrate 5 and the fastening part 6 in order to hold them together. In particular, in order to affix the piece of eyelash jewelry 1 to the eyelid 4, at least one eyelash 11 is clamped between the jewelry substrate 5 and the fastening part 6, which produces a durable securing of the position of the piece of eyelash jewelry 1. The magnetic means 7, 9, 16 in this case are preferably embodied in the form of permanent magnets 19 or by means of magnetic foils 20, as a result of which the holding surfaces 8, 10, 17 function as magnetic poles of the magnetic means 7, 9, 16.
[0020] As shown in FIG. 2, the jewelry substrate 5 of the piece of eyelash jewelry 1 has a flange 13, which protrudes from the first holding surface 8 of the jewelry substrate 5. The flange 13 in this case extends at least partially in the holding direction 12 of the magnetic force between the jewelry substrate 5 and the fastening part 6. A different angle between the flange 13 and the first holding surface 8 can be selected as long as a stop 14 for the fastening part 6 is produced. In this case, the stop 14 prevents an unwanted pulling-off of the jewelry substrate 5 in the direction of the eye 30and can thus prevent a risk of injury by means of the jewelry substrate 5 with a jewelry element 2 or decoration element 2as well as an unwanted rotation of the jewelry substrate 5. This enables a durable orientation of the jewelry element 2 or decoration elements 2. In this case, the fastening part 6 can touch the flange 13 directly or can also touch the flange 13 indirectly via an eyelash 11 that is clamped between the fastening part 6 and the jewelry substrate 5. The flange 13 thus constitutes a stop 14 for the fastening part 6whether directly or indirectly.
[0021] As shown in the detail view in FIG. 2, in a particular embodiment form, the flange 13 protrudes orthogonally from the first holding surface 8 of the jewelry substrate 5. Such an orthogonally protruding flange 13 achieves a particularly reliable stop and thus an increased degree of safety.
[0022] As shown in FIGS. 1-3, the flange 13 is embodied by means of a jewelry element 2 or decoration element 2 provided on the jewelry substrate 5. In particular, the jewelry element 2 or decoration element 2 in this case can be mounted on the jewelry substrate 5 and integrally joined to it by means of adhesive.
[0023] The jewelry substrate 5 has a base 18 to which the jewelry elements 2 or decoration elements 2 are fastened, which base 18 is constituted by the first magnetic means 7. The first magnetic means 7 in this case is preferably provided in the form of a neodymium/iron/boron permanent magnet 19.
[0024] As can be inferred in particular from FIG. 3, the fastening part 6 is embodied as an elongated rod 15 so that it rests on a plurality of lashes 11 of the eyelashes 3 of an eyelid 4. As a result, the weight of the fastening part 6 is distributed to and durably supported by a plurality of eyelashes 11. This in turn can improve the wearing comfort of the piece of eyelash jewelry 1.
[0025] It is also clear from FIGS. 2 and 3 that the fastening part 6 has a third magnetic means 16 with a third holding surface 17, which is positioned on the second side of the fastening part 6 opposite from the second holding surface 10. The fastening part 6 embodied as an elongated rod 15 can thus cooperate with the first magnetic means 7 of the jewelry substrate 5 on both sides, i.e. both via its second magnetic means 9 and via its third magnetic means 16, to secure the piece of eyelash jewelry 1 to an eyelid 4. The fastening part 6 in this case can be embodied by a two-sided magnetic foil 20 or metal foil 20, which simultaneously constitutes the second and third magnetic means 9, 16. In the same way, the fastening part 6 can also be produced by means of two magnetic foils or metal foils 20 that are placed against each other, but this is not shown in detail in the figures.
[0026] The jewelry substrate 6 is embodied as T-shaped in cross-section, which makes it easier to use, as is apparent from FIG. 2.
