Description

本発明は、使用者の耳たぶを挟持することによって、耳に装着するイヤリングに関する。 The present invention relates to earrings that are worn in the ear by clamping the user's earlobe.

使用者の耳たぶを２点で挟んで使用するイヤリングとしては、ネジ式の耳たぶを直接押圧する押圧手段を有するもの、バネ等の付勢力を利用するもの、ネジ式の押圧手段とバネ等の付勢力を利用する方式を組み合わせたものなどが知られている。 Known earrings that are used by pinching the wearer's earlobe at two points include those with a screw-type pressing means that directly presses against the earlobe, those that use the biasing force of a spring or the like, and those that combine a screw-type pressing means with a system that uses the biasing force of a spring or the like.

特許文献１に記載のイヤリングは、一方の主装飾体と他方の挟着部材が一対の取付脚部と取付基部とを有しており、取付脚部と取付基部との間に円形金属板材を介装させて軸着することで、一方の主装飾体と他方の挟着部材が回動する際に、当該回動を制御する抵抗力を生じさせる構造になっている。 The earrings described in Patent Document 1 have a pair of mounting legs and a mounting base, and a circular metal plate is interposed between the mounting legs and the mounting base and axially attached, so that when the main decorative body and the clamping member rotate, a resistance force is generated that controls the rotation.

実用新案登録第３１５８４４８号公報Utility Model Registration No. 3158448

特許文献１に記載のイヤリングは、一方の主装飾体と他方の挟着部材が回動する際に、当該回動を制御する抵抗力が生じる機構を１つしか有しておらず、経年劣化等により、摩擦力が低下した際には、使用者の意図しない力により、一方の主装飾体と他方の挟着部材が回動してしまい、イヤリングが脱落してしまう恐れがある。 The earrings described in Patent Document 1 only have one mechanism that generates a resistance force to control the rotation of one main decorative body and the other clamping member when they rotate. If the frictional force decreases due to aging or other reasons, a force unintended by the user may cause the one main decorative body and the other clamping member to rotate, which may cause the earrings to fall off.

本発明のイヤリングは、従来のイヤリングの前記欠点を改良するものであり、長期間の使用による劣化や故障などにより、一方の主装飾体と他方の挟着部材が回動し耳たぶを挟持する間隔が不意に広がりイヤリングが脱落してしまうことがないように、挟着部材の回動を抑止することのできるイヤリングを提供しようとするものである。 The earrings of the present invention improve upon the above-mentioned shortcomings of conventional earrings, and aim to provide earrings that can prevent the rotation of the clamping member, so that deterioration or malfunction caused by long-term use will not cause the gap between the main decorative body and the clamping member on the other side to rotate, suddenly widening the gap that holds the earlobe, causing the earring to fall off.

上記のような課題を解決するために本発明のイヤリングは、耳たぶを挟持するための第１挟持部１１１を一端に有する第１部材１１０と、前記第１挟持部１１１に対向して前記耳たぶを挟持するための第２挟持部１２１を一端に有する第２部材１２０と、前記第２部材１２０を支持する第１サポート部材１３０と、を有して成るイヤリングであって、前記第１サポート部材１３０は、前記第２部材１２０における第１部材１１０とは反対側に配置されており、前記第２部材１２０の他端は、前記第１部材１１０と回動可能に連結されており、第１サポート部材１３０は、前記第１部材１１０と回動可能に連結されており、第１サポート部材１３０の一端は、前記第２部材１２０に当接して、当該第２部材１２０における前記第１挟持部１１１と第２挟持部１２１との間隔が広がる方向への前記回動を抑制するように当該第２部材１２０を支持していることを特徴とする。 In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the earring of the present invention is an earring comprising a first member 110 having a first clamping portion 111 at one end for clamping the earlobe, a second member 120 having a second clamping portion 121 at one end facing the first clamping portion 111 for clamping the earlobe, and a first support member 130 supporting the second member 120, wherein the first support member 130 is positioned on the opposite side of the second member 120 to the first member 110, the other end of the second member 120 is rotatably connected to the first member 110, the first support member 130 is rotatably connected to the first member 110, and one end of the first support member 130 abuts against the second member 120 to support the second member 120 so as to suppress the rotation in a direction in which the distance between the first clamping portion 111 and the second clamping portion 121 in the second member 120 increases.

前記第１部材１１０と前記第２部材１２０との連結部である第１連結軸（Ｐ１）において摩擦抵抗の劣化が発生した場合でも、前記第１部材１１０と前記第１サポート部材１３０との連結部である第２連結軸（Ｐ２）において摩擦抵抗が生じる為、前記第１挟持部１１１と前記第２挟持部１２１との間隔を保持することが出来、イヤリングの耐久性を高めることが可能である。 Even if frictional resistance deteriorates at the first connecting shaft (P1), which is the connecting part between the first member 110 and the second member 120, frictional resistance occurs at the second connecting shaft (P2), which is the connecting part between the first member 110 and the first support member 130, so the distance between the first clamping part 111 and the second clamping part 121 can be maintained, thereby increasing the durability of the earrings.

好ましくは、本発明のイヤリングは、２つ以上の前記第１サポート部材１３０を具備しており、各々の前記第１サポート部材１３０が同軸で連結されても良い。 Preferably, the earring of the present invention comprises two or more first support members 130, each of which may be coaxially connected.

第１サポート部材１３０が２つあることで、摩擦抵抗の大きさを分散化させることが出来る為、相対的に少ない力でそれぞれの第１サポート部材１３０を操作することが可能であり、イヤリングの着脱における操作性が向上する。 By having two first support members 130, the magnitude of frictional resistance can be dispersed, making it possible to operate each first support member 130 with relatively little force, improving the operability of putting on and taking off the earrings.

また好ましくは、本発明のイヤリングは、前記第１部材１１０と前記第２部材１２０の連結軸と、前記第２部材１２０と前記第１サポート部材１３０の連結軸とが同軸になっていても良い。 More preferably, in the earring of the present invention, the connecting axis between the first member 110 and the second member 120 and the connecting axis between the second member 120 and the first support member 130 may be coaxial.

１軸である為、製造する上での組み立てが容易となり、コンパクトな大きさのイヤリングを提供することが可能となる。 Because it is a single axis, assembly during manufacturing is easy and it is possible to provide earrings of a compact size.

また好ましくは、本発明のイヤリングは、前記第１サポート部材１３０の一端が前記第２部材１２０に接近する方向に当該第２部材１２０を付勢する付勢部を具備しても良い。 More preferably, the earring of the present invention may include a biasing portion that biases the second member 120 in a direction in which one end of the first support member 130 approaches the second member 120.

この付勢部によって、前記第１サポート部材１３０は、前記第２部材１２０を前記第１部材１１０に近づける方向に付勢する為、前記第１挟持部１１１と前記第２挟持部１２１との間隔が広がる方向へ前記第２部材１２０が回動することを抑制する力を高めることが出来る。 By using this biasing portion, the first support member 130 biases the second member 120 in a direction that brings it closer to the first member 110, thereby increasing the force that prevents the second member 120 from rotating in a direction that widens the gap between the first clamping portion 111 and the second clamping portion 121.

また好ましくは、本発明のイヤリングは、前記第２サポート部材１２０における前記第１サポート部材との被当接部１２６には凹部と凸部が形成されており、前記第１サポート部材１３０の端部は、前記第２部材１２０の被当接部１２６における前記凹部に対して略垂直の状態で当接しても良い。 More preferably, in the earring of the present invention, a recess and a protrusion are formed in the abutment portion 126 of the second support member 120 against the first support member, and the end of the first support member 130 may abut approximately perpendicularly against the recess in the abutment portion 126 of the second member 120.

前記第１サポート部材１３０が、つっかえ棒の役割をして、前記第１挟持部１１１と前記第２挟持部１２１との間隔が広がる方向へ前記第２部材１２０が回動することを抑止する力を高めることが出来る。 The first support member 130 acts as a stop bar, increasing the force that prevents the second member 120 from rotating in a direction that widens the gap between the first clamping portion 111 and the second clamping portion 121.

また好ましくは、本発明のイヤリングは、前記第１サポート部材１３０は、装飾体Ａを具備しても良い。 More preferably, in the earring of the present invention, the first support member 130 may be provided with an ornamental body A.

イヤリングを装着する際に、前記第１サポート部材１３０を前方へ向けても良く、前記第１サポート部材１３０に埋め込まれたこの装飾体Ｍにより、デザインの自由度を高めることが可能である。 When wearing the earrings, the first support member 130 may be oriented forward, and the ornament M embedded in the first support member 130 allows for greater freedom in design.

また好ましくは、本発明のイヤリングは、前記第１サポート部材１３０の他端には、前記第１部材１１０と前記第２部材１２０との間の内部空間Ｓに延在して、前記第２部材１２０の内面と接触可能な押当部１３６が設けられても良い。 More preferably, the earring of the present invention may be provided with a pressing portion 136 at the other end of the first support member 130, which extends into the internal space S between the first member 110 and the second member 120 and is capable of contacting the inner surface of the second member 120.

前記第１サポート部材１３０を回動させると、前記第１サポート部材１３０の押当部１３６が前記第２部材１２０の内面に接するようになり、その後さらに前記第１サポート部材１３０を回動させると、当該先端部が前記第２部材１２０の内面を押圧して、前記第１サポート部材１３０と前記第２部材１２０が連動して回動するようになる為、ワンステップでの取り外しが可能となる。 When the first support member 130 is rotated, the pressing portion 136 of the first support member 130 comes into contact with the inner surface of the second member 120, and when the first support member 130 is then rotated further, the tip portion presses against the inner surface of the second member 120, causing the first support member 130 and the second member 120 to rotate in conjunction with each other, making it possible to remove the member in one step.

また好ましくは、本発明のイヤリングは、前記第１サポート部材１３０における前記第２部材１２０とは反対側の面に当接して、当該第１サポート部材１３０の一端が前記第２部材１２０から離接することを抑制する第２サポート部材１８０が、前記第１部材１１０と回動可能に連結されても良い。 More preferably, the earring of the present invention may have a second support member 180 that abuts against the surface of the first support member 130 opposite the second member 120 to prevent one end of the first support member 130 from coming into contact with and separating from the second member 120, and is rotatably connected to the first member 110.

前記第１部材１１０と前記第２サポート部材１８０との連結軸である第３連結軸（Ｐ３）における摩擦抵抗が生じて、イヤリングの脱落を防止する機能を高めることが可能である。 Frictional resistance occurs in the third connecting shaft (P3), which is the connecting shaft between the first member 110 and the second support member 180, improving the function of preventing the earring from falling off.

耳たぶを挟持する間隔が不意に広がりイヤリングが脱落することが発生しないように、挟着部材の回動を抑止することが可能になる。 It is possible to prevent the clamping member from rotating, so that the gap that holds the earlobe does not suddenly widen and the earring does not fall off.

また、抵抗力を生み出す機構を複数設けることで、一つの機構が劣化や故障をしても、その他の機構が補う為、耐久性を高めることが出来る。 In addition, by providing multiple mechanisms that generate resistance, even if one mechanism deteriorates or breaks down, the others can compensate, increasing durability.

［第１実施例］
図１および図２は、第１実施例を示している。これらの図で示すように、本発明の第１実施例に係わるイヤリング１００は、第１部材１１０と、第２部材１２０と、第１サポート部材１３０と、軸ピン１４０と、摩擦抵抗部材１５０と、を備えている。 [First embodiment]
1 and 2 show a first embodiment of the earring 100 according to the present invention. As shown in these figures, the earring 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention includes a first member 110, a second member 120, a first support member 130, a pivot pin 140, and a friction resistance member 150.

第１部材１１０と第２部材１２０は、互いに回動可能に連結されており、当該第１部材１１０と第１サポート部材１３０は互いに回動可能に連結されている。また、第１サポート部材１３０は、第２部材１２０における第１部材１１０とは反対側に配置されている。 The first member 110 and the second member 120 are connected to each other so as to be rotatable, and the first member 110 and the first support member 130 are connected to each other so as to be rotatable. The first support member 130 is disposed on the opposite side of the second member 120 to the first member 110.

本実施例のイヤリングが耳たぶに装着された際には、第１サポート部材１３０の一端は、第２部材１２０に当接して、第１部材１１０と第２部材１２０との開放端の間隔が広がる方向（後述する第１挟持部１１１と第２挟持部１２１との間隔が広がる方向）への回動を抑制するように第２部材１２０を支持する。 When the earring of this embodiment is worn on the earlobe, one end of the first support member 130 abuts against the second member 120, supporting the second member 120 so as to prevent rotation in the direction in which the gap between the open ends of the first member 110 and the second member 120 widens (the direction in which the gap between the first clamping portion 111 and the second clamping portion 121, described below, widens).

なお、本発明において、特定の方向への回動を抑制するとは、その方向への回動をさせないように保持すること、その方向へ回動する動きを抑止させること、その方向へ回動しないように付勢力をかけることも包括した意味である。各部材の特徴を下記に記載する。 In this invention, suppressing rotation in a specific direction includes the meaning of holding something so that it does not rotate in that direction, preventing rotation in that direction, and applying a biasing force to prevent rotation in that direction. The characteristics of each component are described below.

［第１部材１１０］
第１部材１１０はその一端において、耳たぶを挟持するための第１挟持部１１１を有し、その他端において、第１サポート部材１３０と連結する為の軸孔１１３が形成されている。 [First member 110]
The first member 110 has a first clamping portion 111 for clamping the earlobe at one end, and an axial hole 113 for connecting to a first support member 130 is formed at the other end.

また、第１部材１１０はその中間において、湾曲部１１４を有し、当該湾曲部１１４と軸孔１１３の間に、第２部材１２０と連結する為の軸孔１１２が形成されている。 The first member 110 also has a curved portion 114 in the middle, and an axial hole 112 for connecting to the second member 120 is formed between the curved portion 114 and the axial hole 113.

［第２部材１２０］
第２部材１２０はその一端において、第１挟持部１１１と対向して、耳たぶを挟持するための第２挟持部１２１を有し、その他端において、２股形状の取付脚部１２４が形成され、各々の取付脚部１２４には、第１部材１１０と連結する為の軸孔１２２が形成されている。 [Second member 120]
At one end of the second member 120, opposite the first clamping portion 111, there is a second clamping portion 121 for clamping the earlobe, and at the other end, there is a bifurcated mounting leg portion 124, and each mounting leg portion 124 has an axial hole 122 formed therein for connecting to the first member 110.

なお、本発明の各実施例においては、第１部材１１０に対向する面を第２部材１２０の内面と言い、その反対側の面を第２部材１２０の外面と言う。 In each embodiment of the present invention, the surface facing the first member 110 is referred to as the inner surface of the second member 120, and the opposite surface is referred to as the outer surface of the second member 120.

［第１サポート部材１３０］
第１サポート部材１３０はその一端において、第２部材１２０の外面に当接することが出来る当接部１３１を有し、その他端において、２股形状の取付脚部１３４が形成され、取付脚部１３４には、第１部材１１０と連結する為の軸孔１３２がそれぞれ形成されている。なお、本発明の各実施例においては、第１部材１１０に対向する面を第１サポート部材１３０の内面と言い、その反対側の面を第１サポート部材１３０の外面と言う。 [First support member 130]
The first support member 130 has at one end a contact portion 131 that can contact the outer surface of the second member 120, and at the other end a bifurcated mounting leg portion 134 is formed, and each mounting leg portion 134 has an axial hole 132 formed therein for connection to the first member 110. In each embodiment of the present invention, the surface facing the first member 110 is referred to as the inner surface of the first support member 130, and the opposite surface is referred to as the outer surface of the first support member 130.

［軸ピン１４０］
軸ピン１４０は、基本的には、細長く延びた略円柱の形状（棒状）であり、軸着用の軸ピンとして機能するものである。軸孔１１２と軸孔１２２に当該軸ピン１４０を挿通することで、第１部材１１０と第２部材１２０を回動可能な状態で連結（軸着）するものである。 [Axis pin 140]
The shaft pin 140 is basically in the shape of a long and thin cylinder (rod shape) and functions as a shaft pin for mounting the first member 110 and the second member 120. By inserting the shaft pin 140 through the shaft holes 112 and 122, the first member 110 and the second member 120 are connected (mounted) in a rotatable state.

同様に、軸孔１１３と軸孔１３２に当該軸ピン１４０を挿通することで、第１部材１１０と第１サポート部材１３０を回動可能な状態で連結（軸着）するものである。また、軸着後において、軸ピン１４０は、その端部をかしめ付けて確実に抜け止めしておくことが望ましい。 Similarly, the first member 110 and the first support member 130 are connected (axially attached) in a rotatable state by inserting the axial pin 140 through the axial holes 113 and 132. After the axial attachment, it is desirable to crimp the end of the axial pin 140 to ensure that it does not come loose.

［摩擦抵抗部材１５０］
摩擦抵抗部材１５０は、円形の金属部材であり、その略中央に軸ピン１４０を挿通させることの出来る貫通孔を有している。一例として、丸ワッシャー、スプリングワッシャー、樹脂等非金属製のワッシャーであっても良い。 [Friction resistance member 150]
The friction resistance member 150 is a circular metal member having a through hole at approximately the center thereof through which the shaft pin 140 can be inserted. As an example, it may be a round washer, a spring washer, or a washer made of non-metal such as resin.

この摩擦抵抗部材１５０は、軸孔１１２と軸孔１２２の間、および軸孔１１３と軸孔１３２の間に、軸ピン１４０が挿通された状態で介装されている。 This friction resistance member 150 is interposed between the shaft holes 112 and 122, and between the shaft holes 113 and 132, with the shaft pins 140 inserted through them.

軸孔１１２と軸孔１２２の間に介装されている摩擦抵抗部材１５０は、第１部材１１０と第２部材１２０が回動する際に摩擦抵抗を生じさせ、軸孔１１３と軸孔１３２の間に介装されている摩擦抵抗部材１５０は、第１部材１１０と第１サポート部材１３０が回動する際に摩擦抵抗を生じさせる。 The friction resistance member 150 interposed between the shaft holes 112 and 122 generates friction resistance when the first member 110 and the second member 120 rotate, and the friction resistance member 150 interposed between the shaft holes 113 and 132 generates friction resistance when the first member 110 and the first support member 130 rotate.

［連結軸］
第１部材１１０と第２部材１２０との連結軸を第１連結軸（Ｐ１）、第１部材１１０と第１サポート部材１３０との連結軸を第２連結軸（Ｐ２）とする。 [Connecting shaft]
The connecting axis between the first member 110 and the second member 120 is referred to as a first connecting axis (P1), and the connecting axis between the first member 110 and the first support member 130 is referred to as a second connecting axis (P2).

なお、本発明における連結軸とは、回動をする中心軸のこと、およびこの連結軸によって連結された状態において回動する際に抵抗摩擦が生じる部位ということも含めている。 In this invention, the connecting shaft refers to the central shaft that rotates, and also refers to the part that generates resistance friction when rotating in a connected state by this connecting shaft.

［着脱方法］
第１部材１１０の第１挟持部１１１と、第１サポート部材１３０の当接部１３１が狭くなる方向へ第１サポート部材１３０が第２部材１２０を押さえることで、第１サポート部材１３０の当接部１３１が第２部材１２０を押し支えて、第１挟持部１１１と第２挟持部１２１の間隔を接近させることが出来る。 [How to attach and remove]
By the first support member 130 pressing the second member 120 in a direction in which the first clamping portion 111 of the first member 110 and the abutment portion 131 of the first support member 130 become narrower, the abutment portion 131 of the first support member 130 presses and supports the second member 120, thereby making it possible to reduce the distance between the first clamping portion 111 and the second clamping portion 121.

第１挟持部１１１と第２挟持部１２１の間隔を、押圧前の使用者の耳たぶの厚さよりも狭くなるところまで接近させれば良いので、ワンステップの操作で行うことが出来る。 The operation can be performed in one step by simply bringing the first clamping portion 111 and the second clamping portion 121 closer together until the distance between them is narrower than the thickness of the user's earlobe before pressing.

取り外す場合には、第１部材１１０の第１挟持部１１１と、第１サポート部材１３０の当接部１３１との間隔が広くなる方向へ第１サポート部材１３０を回動させ、その後、第１挟持部１１１と第２挟持部１２１の間隔を広げる方向へ第２部材１２０を回動させることで、取り外すことが出来る。 To remove the member, the first support member 130 is rotated in a direction that increases the distance between the first clamping portion 111 of the first member 110 and the abutment portion 131 of the first support member 130, and then the second member 120 is rotated in a direction that increases the distance between the first clamping portion 111 and the second clamping portion 121, thereby removing the member.

上記の操作は、片手でも行うことが可能であり、イヤリング１００の着脱の操作性を向上させることが出来る。 The above operations can be performed with one hand, improving the ease of putting on and taking off the earrings 100.

［第１実施例の効果］
上述した構成に基づき、第１サポート部材１３０の当接部１３１が、第２部材１２０の外面に当接することで、第１部材１１０の第１挟持部１１１と第２挟持部１２１との間隔が広がる方向への回動を抑制することが可能である。 [Effects of the First Embodiment]
Based on the above-described configuration, the abutment portion 131 of the first support member 130 abuts against the outer surface of the second member 120, thereby making it possible to suppress rotation in a direction in which the distance between the first clamping portion 111 and the second clamping portion 121 of the first member 110 increases.

また、第１連結軸（Ｐ１）において摩擦抵抗の劣化が発生した場合でも、第２連結軸（Ｐ２）において摩擦抵抗が生じる為、第１挟持部１１１と第２挟持部１２１との間隔を保持することが出来、イヤリング１００の耐久性を高めることが可能である。 In addition, even if frictional resistance deteriorates in the first connecting shaft (P1), frictional resistance occurs in the second connecting shaft (P2), so the distance between the first clamping portion 111 and the second clamping portion 121 can be maintained, thereby increasing the durability of the earring 100.

［第２実施例］
図３および図４は、第２実施例を示している。これらの図で示すように、本発明の第２実施例に係わるイヤリング１００Ａは、第１部材１１０と、第２部材１２０と、２つの第１サポート部材１３０と、軸ピン１４０と、摩擦抵抗部材１５０と、を備えている。 [Second embodiment]
3 and 4 show a second embodiment of the earring 100A according to the present invention. As shown in these figures, the earring 100A according to the second embodiment of the present invention includes a first member 110, a second member 120, two first support members 130, a pivot pin 140, and a friction resistance member 150.

前述の第１実施例のイヤリング１００と同様に、第１部材１１０と第２部材１２０は、互いに回動可能に連結されており、当該第１部材１１０と２つの第１サポート部材１３０は各々互いに回動可能に同軸で連結されている。 Similar to the earring 100 of the first embodiment described above, the first member 110 and the second member 120 are rotatably connected to each other, and the first member 110 and the two first support members 130 are each rotatably connected to each other coaxially.

前述の第１実施例では第１サポート部材１３０が１つであったので、当該第１サポート部材１３０が第２部材１２０を保持する力を分散させることが出来なかったが、第２実施例では第１サポート部材が２つある為、第２連結軸（Ｐ２）における摩擦抵抗の大きさをそれぞれの第１サポート部材１３０の連結軸（Ｐ２）に分散させることが可能である。 In the first embodiment described above, there was only one first support member 130, so the force with which the first support member 130 holds the second member 120 could not be distributed. However, in the second embodiment, there are two first support members, so it is possible to distribute the magnitude of the friction resistance in the second connecting shaft (P2) to the connecting shafts (P2) of the respective first support members 130.

また、それぞれの第１サポート部材１３０は操作部１３３を有している。この操作部１３３は、第１サポート部材１３０の基部の一部がＣ又はＵの字状に屈曲して外側（２つの第１サポート部材１３０の対向の反対側）に延在したものである。この操作部１３３に指を掛けることで、それぞれの第１サポート部材１３０を自在に操作することが可能となる。 Furthermore, each first support member 130 has an operating part 133. This operating part 133 is formed by bending a part of the base of the first support member 130 into a C or U shape and extending outward (to the opposite side of the two first support members 130 facing each other). By placing a finger on this operating part 133, it becomes possible to freely operate each first support member 130.

摩擦抵抗部材１５０は、軸孔１１２と軸孔１２２の間、および軸孔１１３と軸孔１３２との間に、それぞれ介装されている。第１部材１１０の一端において第１挟持部１１１の反対側に突出部が形成されていても良い。 The friction resistance members 150 are interposed between the shaft holes 112 and 122, and between the shaft holes 113 and 132. A protrusion may be formed on one end of the first member 110 on the opposite side to the first clamping portion 111.

［第２実施例の効果］
第１サポート部材１３０が２つあることで、摩擦抵抗の大きさを分散化させることが可能である。それ故に、第１実施例と比べて少ない力でそれぞれの第１サポート部材１３０を操作することが可能となり、着脱における操作性が向上する。また、第１部材１１０の突出部に真珠等の装飾体を付けることで、イヤリングの意匠性を高めることが可能である。 [Effects of the Second Embodiment]
By having two first support members 130, it is possible to distribute the magnitude of frictional resistance. Therefore, it is possible to operate each first support member 130 with less force than in the first embodiment, improving the operability of putting on and taking off the earrings. In addition, by attaching a decoration such as a pearl to the protruding part of the first member 110, it is possible to improve the design of the earrings.

また、片方の第１サポート部材１３０を解除させるとイヤリングの挟持力が減少するので、その後は、そのままイヤリングを引っ張れば、容易に取り外すことが出来る。 In addition, when one of the first support members 130 is released, the clamping force on the earring is reduced, so the earring can then be easily removed by simply pulling it.

［第３実施例］
図５および図６は、第３実施例を示している。これらの図で示すように、本発明の第３実施例に係わるイヤリング１００Ｂは、前述の第１実施例と同様の構成であるが、第１部材１１０の他端は、二股形状の取付脚部１１５となり、取付脚部１１５に軸孔１１２がそれぞれ形成されている。一方、第２部材１２０の他端は、分岐の無い取付基部１２３となり、この取付基部１２３に軸孔１２２が形成されている。 [Third Example]
5 and 6 show the third embodiment. As shown in these figures, the earring 100B according to the third embodiment of the present invention has the same structure as the first embodiment described above, but the other end of the first member 110 is a bifurcated mounting leg 115, each of which is formed with an axial hole 112. Meanwhile, the other end of the second member 120 is a non-branched mounting base 123, each of which is formed with an axial hole 122.

この実施例において、第１連結軸（Ｐ１）と第２連結軸（Ｐ２）が同軸になっている。これにより、１本の軸ピン１４０で、第１部材１１０と第２部材１２０と第１サポート部材１３０とを連結させることが可能となる。本発明における同軸とは、軸線が共通であること、または、軸線が略同一であることを意味する。 In this embodiment, the first connecting shaft (P1) and the second connecting shaft (P2) are coaxial. This makes it possible to connect the first member 110, the second member 120, and the first support member 130 with a single shaft pin 140. In the present invention, coaxial means that the axis is common, or that the axis is approximately the same.

図６で示すように、内側の一対の摩擦抵抗部材１５０は、第２部材１２０の軸孔１２２を挟んで両側に配置されている。換言すれば、内側の一対の摩擦抵抗部材１５０は、軸孔１２２と軸孔１３２の間に挟まって配置されるようになる。 As shown in FIG. 6, the pair of inner friction resistance members 150 are arranged on either side of the shaft hole 122 of the second member 120. In other words, the pair of inner friction resistance members 150 are arranged sandwiched between the shaft hole 122 and the shaft hole 132.

一方、外側の一対の摩擦抵抗部材１５０は、軸孔１１２と軸孔１３２との間に挟まって配置されるようになる。そうして、１本の軸ピン１４０によって、第１部材１１０と第２部材１２０と第１サポート部材１３０とを回動可能に軸着させることが出来る。 Meanwhile, the pair of outer friction resistance members 150 are sandwiched and positioned between the shaft holes 112 and 132. Thus, the first member 110, the second member 120, and the first support member 130 can be rotatably attached by a single shaft pin 140.

図示している軸ピン１４０は、中空のパイプ状になっており、連結軸を鳩目としてカシメても良い。また、第１サポート部材１３０の一端側には当該一端側から延在して外側に突出させた操作部１３３が設けられている。これにより、イヤリング１００Ｂの上部に指を掛けることで、第１サポート部材１３０を回動させる操作を行うことが出来るようになる。 The illustrated pivot pin 140 is in the shape of a hollow pipe, and the connecting shaft may be crimped as an eyelet. In addition, one end of the first support member 130 is provided with an operating part 133 that extends from the end and protrudes outward. This makes it possible to rotate the first support member 130 by placing a finger on the top of the earring 100B.

［第３実施例の効果］
前述の第１実施例と比べて、部品点数が少なく、コンパクトな大きさのイヤリングを提供することが可能となる。また、１軸である為、製造する上での組み立てが容易となる。 [Effects of the Third Embodiment]
Compared to the first embodiment described above, it is possible to provide earrings of a smaller number of parts and a compact size. Also, since there is only one axis, assembly during manufacturing is easier.

［第４実施例］
図７は、第４実施例を示している。この図で示すように、本発明の一実施例に係わるイヤリング１００Ｃは、基本的には前述の第１実施例と同様の構造であるが、第１サポート部材１３０の当接部１３１が第２部材１２０に接近する方向へ当該第１サポート部材１３０を付勢する付勢部を有している。 [Fourth embodiment]
7 shows the fourth embodiment. As shown in this figure, the earring 100C according to one embodiment of the present invention has a structure basically similar to that of the first embodiment described above, but has a biasing portion that biases the first support member 130 in a direction in which the abutment portion 131 of the first support member 130 approaches the second member 120.

この付勢部は、第１部材１１０と第１サポート部材１３０を連結する第２連結軸（Ｐ２）に介装されている弾性部材１６０であっても良い。図示した例では、弾性部材１６０はトーションバネである。この弾性部材１６０の一端は、第１部材１１０に当接し、弾性部材１６０の他端は、第１サポート部材１３０に当接している。 This biasing portion may be an elastic member 160 that is interposed in the second connecting shaft (P2) that connects the first member 110 and the first support member 130. In the illustrated example, the elastic member 160 is a torsion spring. One end of the elastic member 160 abuts against the first member 110, and the other end of the elastic member 160 abuts against the first support member 130.

図示している例では、第２連結軸（Ｐ２）に弾性部材１６０が介装されている為に、同じ軸部に摩擦抵抗部材１５０が介装されていないが、弾性部材１６０と摩擦抵抗部材１５０が共に介装されている状態であっても良い。 In the illustrated example, the elastic member 160 is interposed on the second connecting shaft (P2), and therefore the friction resistance member 150 is not interposed on the same shaft portion, but both the elastic member 160 and the friction resistance member 150 may be interposed.

［第４実施例の効果］
この付勢部によって、第１サポート部材１３０は、第２部材１２０を第１部材１１０に近づける方向に付勢する為、第１挟持部１１１と第２挟持部１２１との間隔が広がる方向へ第２部材１２０が回動することを抑制する力を高めることが出来る。 [Effects of the Fourth Embodiment]
Due to this biasing portion, the first support member 130 biases the second member 120 in a direction bringing it closer to the first member 110, thereby increasing the force suppressing the second member 120 from rotating in a direction widening the gap between the first clamping portion 111 and the second clamping portion 121.

［第４実施例の変形１］
図８は、第４実施例の変形１を示している。この図で示すように、付勢部は、第１サポート部材１３０自体が付勢力を有する部材から作られていても良い。 [Modification 1 of the Fourth Embodiment]
8 shows a first modification of the fourth embodiment. As shown in this figure, the biasing portion may be formed such that the first support member 130 itself is made of a member having a biasing force.

図示した例では、折り曲がった形状であり、それぞれの端部に軸部１３５が形成されており、第１部材１１０の他端に形成されたそれぞれの軸孔１１３に回転可能に嵌合されている。換言すれば、第１部材１１０と第１サポート部材１３０は枢着された状態になっている。 In the illustrated example, it has a bent shape, and shaft portions 135 are formed at each end, which are rotatably fitted into the respective shaft holes 113 formed at the other end of the first member 110. In other words, the first member 110 and the first support member 130 are pivotally attached.

図示する第１サポート部材１３０は、特定の位置（限界点）を過ぎると、バネ圧（付勢力）が解除される機構になっている。 The first support member 130 shown in the figure has a mechanism that releases the spring pressure (biasing force) once a specific position (limit point) is passed.

［第４実施例の変形１の効果］
通常のトーションバネの場合には、弾性部材１６０の持つ付勢力が継続的に付勢された状態であるのに対して、図示する第１サポート部材１３０は、付勢力が働く範囲を制限させることが可能である。また、第１サポート部材１３０自体が弾性部材となることで、部品点数を減らすことが出来る。 [Effects of Modification 1 of the Fourth Embodiment]
In the case of a normal torsion spring, the biasing force of the elastic member 160 is in a continuous state, whereas the illustrated first support member 130 can limit the range in which the biasing force acts. Also, since the first support member 130 itself is an elastic member, the number of parts can be reduced.

［第４実施例の変形２］
図９および図１０は、第４実施例の変形２を示している。図示した例では、付勢部は、略Ω状の線材であり、それぞれの端部に軸部１３５が形成されており、第１部材１１０の他端に形成されたそれぞれの軸孔１１３に回転可能に嵌合させることが可能である。第４実施例の変形１と同様に、第１部材１１０と第１サポート部材１３０は枢着された状態になっている。 [Modification 2 of the Fourth Embodiment]
9 and 10 show a second modification of the fourth embodiment. In the illustrated example, the biasing portion is a substantially Ω-shaped wire rod, with shaft portions 135 formed at each end, which can be rotatably fitted into the respective shaft holes 113 formed at the other end of the first member 110. As in the first modification of the fourth embodiment, the first member 110 and the first support member 130 are pivotally connected.

上記第４実施例の変形１の場合と同様に、図示する第１サポート部材１３０は、特定の位置（限界点）を過ぎると、バネ圧（付勢力）が解除される機構になっている。 As in the first variation of the fourth embodiment described above, the first support member 130 shown in the figure has a mechanism in which the spring pressure (biasing force) is released once a specific position (limit point) is passed.

［第４実施例の変形２の効果］
第４実施例の変形１と同様に、付勢力が働く範囲を制限することが可能である。また、第１サポート部材１３０自体が弾性部材となり、かつ略Ω状の線材を使うことで、組み立てが容易になる。 [Effects of Modification 2 of the Fourth Embodiment]
As in the first modification of the fourth embodiment, it is possible to limit the range in which the biasing force acts. Furthermore, the first support member 130 itself is an elastic member, and by using a substantially Ω-shaped wire material, assembly is made easier.

［第５実施例］
図１１は、第５実施例を示している。この図で示すように、本発明の第５実施例に係わるイヤリング１００Ｄにおける第２部材１２０の一端側には、耳当部材１７０が取り付けられている。この耳当て部材１７０は、柔軟性のあるシリコンゴムで出来ていても良い。 [Fifth Example]
11 shows the fifth embodiment. As shown in this figure, an earring 100D according to the fifth embodiment of the present invention has an ear pad 170 attached to one end of the second member 120. The ear pad 170 may be made of flexible silicone rubber.

［第５実施例の効果］
耳当部材１７０が耳たぶに当接する際に、耳たぶとの接触面積が増え、摩擦抵抗も増える。これにより、イヤリング１００Ｄの装着状態を安定化させることが出来る。 [Effects of the Fifth Embodiment]
When the ear pad 170 comes into contact with the earlobe, the contact area with the earlobe increases, and the frictional resistance also increases, thereby making it possible to stabilize the wearing state of the earring 100D.

［第６実施例］
図１２は、第６実施例を示している。この図で示すように、本発明の一実施例に係わるイヤリング１００Ｅの第１サポート部材１３０は、第２部材１２０に対して略垂直で当接することが出来る状態になっている。 [Sixth Example]
12 shows a sixth embodiment. As shown in this figure, the first support member 130 of the earring 100E according to one embodiment of the present invention is in a state in which it can abut against the second member 120 substantially perpendicularly.

第２サポート部材１２０は、第１サポート部材１３０の当接部１３１に押し当てられる被当接部１２６を有しており、この被当接部１２６には、凹部と凸部が形成されている。第１サポート部材１３０の端部は、前記第２部材１２０の被当接部１２６における凹部に対して、略垂直の状態で当接することが可能である。この被当接部１２６を、被当接面に置き換えてもよい。 The second support member 120 has an abutment portion 126 that is pressed against the abutment portion 131 of the first support member 130, and this abutment portion 126 is formed with a concave portion and a convex portion. The end portion of the first support member 130 can abut against the concave portion in the abutment portion 126 of the second member 120 in a substantially perpendicular state. This abutment portion 126 may be replaced with an abutment surface.

換言すれば、図示する第１部材１１０と第１サポート部材１３０との連結軸を第２連結軸（Ｐ２）は、この第１サポート部材１３０の略中央にあり、第２連結軸（Ｐ２）を中心として２本の腕部が延在している。この腕部は２本に限らず、３本でも、４本でも、それ以上の本数でも良い。 In other words, the second connecting shaft (P2) connecting the illustrated first member 110 and the first support member 130 is located approximately in the center of the first support member 130, and two arms extend from the second connecting shaft (P2). The number of arms is not limited to two, and may be three, four, or more.

この被当接部１２６は滑りにくくなっていることが望ましく、抵抗が生じるようにざらざらとした面であっても良い。第１サポート部材１３０が略円盤の形状であり、ラチェット式に一方向（図では反時計回り）のみに回動させる仕組みでも良い。また、第１サポート部材１３０の各々の端部にゴム等の抵抗を生じる素材を付けても良い。 It is desirable for this contact portion 126 to be non-slip, and it may have a rough surface to generate resistance. The first support member 130 may be substantially disk-shaped, and may be designed to rotate in only one direction (counterclockwise in the figure) like a ratchet. Also, a material that generates resistance, such as rubber, may be attached to each end of the first support member 130.

［第６実施例の効果］
第１サポート部材１３０が、つっかえ棒の役割をして、第１挟持部１１１と第２挟持部１２１との間隔が広がる方向へ第２部材１２０が回動することを抑止する力を高めることが出来る。 [Effects of the Sixth Embodiment]
The first support member 130 acts as a stop bar, and can increase the force that prevents the second member 120 from rotating in a direction that widens the gap between the first clamping portion 111 and the second clamping portion 121 .

［第７実施例］
図１３は、第７実施例を示している。この図で示すように、本発明の一実施例に係わるイヤリング１００Ｆにおいて、第１サポート部材１３０には装飾体Ｍが埋め込まれている。この装飾体Ｍは、メレーダイヤ等の宝石であっても良い。また、第１サポート部材１３０自体が、装飾性のある部材であっても良い。 [Seventh Example]
Fig. 13 shows the seventh embodiment. As shown in this figure, in the earring 100F according to one embodiment of the present invention, a decorative body M is embedded in the first support member 130. This decorative body M may be a gemstone such as melee diamonds. In addition, the first support member 130 itself may be a decorative member.

［第７実施例の効果］
イヤリング１００Ｆを装着する際に、第１サポート部材１３０を前方へ向けても良く、第１サポート部材１３０に埋め込まれた装飾体Ｍにより、デザインの自由度を高めることが可能である。 [Effects of the Seventh Embodiment]
When wearing the earring 100F, the first support member 130 may be facing forward, and the jewelry M embedded in the first support member 130 allows for greater freedom in design.

［第８実施例］
図１４は、第８実施例を示している。この図で示すように、本発明の第８実施例に係わるイヤリング１００Ｇにおいて、第１サポート部材１３０の他端が、第２部材１２０を越えて、第１部材１１０と第２部材１２０によって囲まれた内部空間Ｓに延在している。 [Eighth Example]
14 shows an eighth embodiment. As shown in this figure, in an earring 100G according to the eighth embodiment of the present invention, the other end of the first support member 130 extends beyond the second member 120 into the internal space S surrounded by the first member 110 and the second member 120.

この内部空間Ｓにおいて、第１サポート部材１３０の他端は、第２部材１２０の内面と接触可能である押当部１３６を有しており、この押当部１３６と第２部材１２０の内面との間に隙間（遊び）が設けられている。 In this internal space S, the other end of the first support member 130 has a pressing portion 136 that can contact the inner surface of the second member 120, and a gap (play) is provided between this pressing portion 136 and the inner surface of the second member 120.

第１サポート部材１３０の一端には、突出した操作部１３３が設けられ、この操作部１３３と当接部１３１の間は中空となっている。また、第１部材１１０の基部の外面、および第１サポート部材１３０の基部の外面には、それぞれ凹凸部が設けられている。これらの凹凸部によって、イヤリング１００Ｇの下方から操作する際に、指を滑りにくくさせることが出来る。 A protruding operating portion 133 is provided at one end of the first support member 130, and the space between this operating portion 133 and the abutment portion 131 is hollow. In addition, uneven portions are provided on the outer surface of the base of the first member 110 and the outer surface of the base of the first support member 130. These uneven portions make it difficult for the finger to slip when operating the earring 100G from below.

［第８実施例の効果］
第１サポート部材１３０を回動させると、第１サポート部材１３０の押当部１３６が第２部材１２０の内面に接するようになり、その後さらに第１サポート部材１３０を回動させると、当該先端部が第２部材１２０の内面を押圧して、第１サポート部材１３０と第２部材１２０が連動して回動するようになる。ワンステップでの取り外しが可能となる。 [Effects of the Eighth Embodiment]
When the first support member 130 is rotated, the pressing portion 136 of the first support member 130 comes into contact with the inner surface of the second member 120, and when the first support member 130 is then rotated further, the tip portion presses the inner surface of the second member 120, and the first support member 130 and the second member 120 rotate in conjunction with each other. This allows removal in one step.

［第９実施例］
図１５は、第９実施例を示している。この図で示すように、本発明の第９実施例に係わるイヤリング１００Ｈには、第１サポート部材１３０の回動を抑制する第２サポート部材１８０が設けられ、この第２サポート部材１８０は第１部材１１０と第３連結軸（Ｐ３）で連結されている。 [Ninth Example]

［第１１実施例］
図１７は、第１１実施例を示している。この図で示すように、本発明の第１１実施例に係わるイヤリング１００Ｊは、第１部材１１０と、第２部材１２０と、第１サポート部材１３０と、軸ピン１４０と、弾性部材１６５と、を備えている。 [Eleventh embodiment]
17 shows the eleventh embodiment. As shown in this figure, the earring 100J according to the eleventh embodiment of the present invention includes a first member 110, a second member 120, a first support member 130, a pivot pin 140, and an elastic member 165.

また、イヤリング１００Ｊは、第２部材１２０の被当接部１２６が、第１サポート部材１３０に接近する方向に第２部材１２０を付勢する付勢部を有しており、第１部材１１０と第２部材１２０との連結軸である第１連結軸（Ｐ１）に、この付勢部となる弾性部材１６５が介装されている。 Furthermore, the earring 100J has a biasing portion where the abutment portion 126 of the second member 120 biases the second member 120 in a direction approaching the first support member 130, and an elastic member 165 that serves as this biasing portion is interposed on the first connecting shaft (P1) that is the connecting shaft between the first member 110 and the second member 120.

［弾性部材１６５］
弾性部材１６５は、第１部材１１０の第１挟持部１１１と第２部材１２０の第２挟持部１２１との間隔が広がる方向へ付勢する。同時に、弾性部材１６５によって、第２部材１２０の被当接部１２６が、第１サポート部材１３０の当接部１３１に接近する方向へ付勢され、第２部材１２０の被当接部１２６が、第１サポート部材１３０の当接部１３１を押圧するようになる。 [Elastic member 165]
The elastic member 165 biases the first clamping portion 111 of the first member 110 and the second clamping portion 121 of the second member 120 in a direction that widens the gap between them. At the same time, the elastic member 165 biases the contacted portion 126 of the second member 120 in a direction approaching the contact portion 131 of the first support member 130, so that the contacted portion 126 of the second member 120 presses the contact portion 131 of the first support member 130.

この押圧のベクトルの方向線と、外力により第１サポート部材１３０を外向きに回動させる力の方向線との開き角度が、４０度程度となっている。この角度は、３０度から６０度の間であることが好ましい。なお、第１連結軸（Ｐ１）と第２連結軸（Ｐ２）が水平に配置された状態であれば、理論上では４５度の角度が最適である。 The angle between the direction line of this pressure vector and the direction line of the force that rotates the first support member 130 outward due to an external force is approximately 40 degrees. This angle is preferably between 30 degrees and 60 degrees. In theory, an angle of 45 degrees is optimal if the first connecting shaft (P1) and the second connecting shaft (P2) are arranged horizontally.

この角度の開きが存在する為、第１サポート部材１３０が外向きに回動しにくくなり、ロックが掛かった状態となる。（第１サポート部材１３０を外向きに回動させるとは、第１挟持部１１１と当接部１３１との間隔が広がる方向に回動させることを指す。 Because of this angular gap, the first support member 130 becomes difficult to rotate outward and is locked. (Rotating the first support member 130 outward means rotating it in a direction that widens the gap between the first clamping portion 111 and the abutment portion 131.)

［調節機構］
第１サポート部材１３０の当接部１３１が第２部材１２０に当接する位置を調節する調節機構が、第２部材１２０の被当接部１２６に設けられている。 [Adjustment mechanism]
An adjustment mechanism that adjusts the position at which the contact portion 131 of the first support member 130 contacts the second member 120 is provided on the contacted portion 126 of the second member 120 .

第２部材１２０の被当接部１２６に、複数の溝部１２７が形成されている。溝部１２７は凹凸状の溝であってもよい。また、第１サポート部材１３０の当接部１３１は凸部を有しており、この凸部が溝部１２７の中に係合することで、第２部材１２０と第１サポート部材１３０との位置関係が決まってくる。 Multiple grooves 127 are formed in the contact portion 126 of the second member 120. The grooves 127 may be uneven grooves. In addition, the contact portion 131 of the first support member 130 has a convex portion, and the positional relationship between the second member 120 and the first support member 130 is determined by engaging this convex portion with the groove 127.

第１連結軸（Ｐ１）に介装された弾性部材１６５の付勢力により、第２部材１２０の被当接部１２６が第１サポート部材１３０に接近する方向への回動するようになり、第２部材１２０と第１サポート部材１３０とは継続的に接触し当接するようになる。 The biasing force of the elastic member 165 interposed on the first connecting shaft (P1) causes the abutted portion 126 of the second member 120 to rotate in a direction approaching the first support member 130, so that the second member 120 and the first support member 130 come into continuous contact and abutment.

図示していないが、調節機構は、被当接部１２６が凸部となり、当接部１３１が凹部となり、この凹部と凸部が係合することで、第２部材１２０とサポート部材１３０との位置を調節することができる構成であってもよい。 Although not shown, the adjustment mechanism may be configured such that the abutted portion 126 is a convex portion and the abutting portion 131 is a concave portion, and the concave portion and the convex portion engage with each other to adjust the positions of the second member 120 and the support member 130.

［第１１実施例の効果］
第１連結軸（Ｐ１）における付勢部と調整機構により、第１サポート部材１３０の当接部１３１と、第２部材１２０の被当接部１２６とが、適度な位置で係合されるようになり、イヤリングの脱落を抑止することが可能となる。 [Effects of the eleventh embodiment]
The biasing portion and adjustment mechanism in the first connecting shaft (P1) allow the abutment portion 131 of the first support member 130 and the abutted portion 126 of the second member 120 to engage at an appropriate position, making it possible to prevent the earring from falling off.

［第１２実施例］
図１８は、第１２実施例を示している。この図で示すように、本発明の第１２実施例に係わるイヤリング１００Ｋは、第１部材１１０と、第２部材１２０と、第１サポート部材１３０と、軸ピン１４０と、弾性部材１６５と、を備えている。 [Twelfth embodiment]
18 shows the twelfth embodiment. As shown in this figure, the earring 100K according to the twelfth embodiment of the present invention includes a first member 110, a second member 120, a first support member 130, a pivot pin 140, and an elastic member 165.

第１サポート部材１３０は、第２部材１２０側に開口部を有するＢＯＸ形状であり、第１サポート部材１３０の内面には、中空空間１２８が形成されている。 The first support member 130 has a box shape with an opening on the second member 120 side, and a hollow space 128 is formed on the inner surface of the first support member 130.

この中空空間１２８に、第２部材１２０の他端を収容させることが可能であり、第１連結軸（Ｐ１）を覆って、外側から見えなくさせることが出来る。 The other end of the second member 120 can be accommodated in this hollow space 128, and the first connecting shaft (P1) can be covered so that it is not visible from the outside.

［第１２実施例の効果］
イヤリング１００Ｋの第１サポート部材１３０はＢＯＸ形状であるので、イヤリング１００Ｊの第１サポート部材１３０と比べて強度が増し、第１サポート部材１３０自体の変形が起こりにくくなる。また、第１サポート部材１３０を、親指と人差し指の２本の指で把持して回動させることが出来るので、イヤリングの着脱の操作を容易化させることが可能である。 [Effects of the twelfth embodiment]
Since the first support member 130 of the earring 100K has a box shape, it is stronger than the first support member 130 of the earring 100J, and the first support member 130 itself is less likely to deform. In addition, the first support member 130 can be held and rotated with two fingers, the thumb and the index finger, which makes it easier to put on and take off the earring.

また、第１連結軸（Ｐ１）を外側から見えなくさせることが出来る。これにより、機械的な構造を忌避する傾向のあるユーザーからの好感を得ることの出来るようになる。勿論、イヤリングの全体的な美観を向上させることも可能である。 In addition, the first connecting shaft (P1) can be made invisible from the outside. This makes it appealing to users who tend to dislike mechanical structures. Of course, it is also possible to improve the overall aesthetics of the earrings.

［第１３実施例］
図１９は、第１３実施例を示している。この図で示すように、本発明の第１３実施例に係わるイヤリング１００Ｌは、第１部材１１０と、第２部材１２０と、第１サポート部材１３０と、軸ピン１４０と、弾性部材１６０と、弾性部材１６５と、を備えている。 [Thirteenth embodiment]
19 shows the thirteenth embodiment. As shown in this figure, the earring 100L according to the thirteenth embodiment of the present invention includes a first member 110, a second member 120, a first support member 130, a pivot pin 140, an elastic member 160, and an elastic member 165.

第２部材１２０の中間部に、挿通部１２５が設けられており、この挿通部１２５に、第１サポート部材１３０が挿通されている。この挿通部１２５により、第２部材１２０の中間部とサポート部材１３０の中間部が交差した状態になる。挿通部１２５は、貫通孔でもよく、スリットでもよい。 An insertion portion 125 is provided in the middle of the second member 120, and the first support member 130 is inserted into this insertion portion 125. This insertion portion 125 causes the middle portion of the second member 120 and the middle portion of the support member 130 to intersect. The insertion portion 125 may be a through hole or a slit.

図示していないが、第１サポート部材１３０の中間部に、挿通部が設けられており、この挿通部に、第２部材１２０が挿通されていてもよい。このような場合でも、第２部材１２０の中間部とサポート部材１３０の中間部が交差した状態になる。交差とは、略Ｘ状にクロスした状態のことを指す。 Although not shown, an insertion portion may be provided in the middle of the first support member 130, and the second member 120 may be inserted into this insertion portion. Even in this case, the middle portion of the second member 120 and the middle portion of the support member 130 will be in an intersecting state. "Intersecting" refers to a state where they cross in an approximately X-shape.

［弾性部材］
弾性部材１６０は、第１サポート部材１３０の当接部１３１が、第２部材１２０の被当接部１２６に接近する方向に第１サポート部材１３０を付勢し、第１サポート部材１３０の当接部１３１が第２部材１２０の被当接部１２６を押圧する。 [Elastic member]
The elastic member 160 biases the first support member 130 in a direction in which the abutting portion 131 of the first support member 130 approaches the abutted portion 126 of the second member 120 , and the abutting portion 131 of the first support member 130 presses the abutted portion 126 of the second member 120 .

一方、弾性部材１６５は、第２部材１２０の被当接部１２６が、第１サポート部材１３０の当接部１３１に接近する方向に第２部材１２０を付勢し、第２部材１２０の被当接部１２６が第１サポート部材１３０の当接部１３１を押圧する。 On the other hand, the elastic member 165 biases the second member 120 in a direction in which the abutted portion 126 of the second member 120 approaches the abutting portion 131 of the first support member 130, and the abutted portion 126 of the second member 120 presses the abutting portion 131 of the first support member 130.

これにより、第２部材１２０の被当接部１２６と、第１サポート部材１３０の当接部１３１とが、より強い付勢力で互いに接近するようになる。 This causes the abutment portion 126 of the second member 120 and the abutment portion 131 of the first support member 130 to approach each other with a stronger biasing force.

弾性部材１６０によって第１サポート部材１３０の当接部１３１が第２部材１２０の被当接部１２６を押圧するベクトルの方向線と、弾性部材１６５によって第２部材１２０の被当接部１２６が第１サポート部材１３０の当接部１３１を押圧するベクトルの方向線との開き角度が、３０度程度となっている。この角度は、３０度から６０度の間であることが好ましい。なお、第１連結軸（Ｐ１）と第２連結軸（Ｐ２）が水平に配置された状態であれば、理論上では４５度の角度が最適である。この角度の開きが存在する為、第１サポート部材１３０が外向きに回動しにくくなり、ロックが掛かった状態となる。 The angle between the vector direction line of the abutting portion 131 of the first support member 130 pressing the abutted portion 126 of the second member 120 by the elastic member 160 and the vector direction line of the abutting portion 126 of the second member 120 pressing the abutting portion 131 of the first support member 130 by the elastic member 165 is about 30 degrees. This angle is preferably between 30 degrees and 60 degrees. In theory, an angle of 45 degrees is optimal if the first connecting shaft (P1) and the second connecting shaft (P2) are arranged horizontally. Because of this angle difference, the first support member 130 becomes difficult to rotate outward and is locked.

［第１３実施例の効果］
弾性部材１６０の付勢力と弾性部材１６５の付勢力により、第１サポート部材１３０が外向きに回動することを抑止することが出来る。つまり、第２部材１２０とサポート部材１３０が相互に押圧することで、第１サポート部材１３０がより強固にロックされた状態になり、使用者の耳たぶを安定的に挟持することが可能となる。 [Effects of the thirteenth embodiment]
The biasing force of the elastic member 160 and the biasing force of the elastic member 165 can prevent the first support member 130 from rotating outward. In other words, the second member 120 and the support member 130 press against each other, so that the first support member 130 is locked more firmly, and the user's earlobe can be stably clamped.
