Abstract
A bracelet fastening tool comprising a band which fits around the wrist of a user and a resilient, bracelet-securing bracket coupled to the band. The resilient, bracelet-securing bracket comprises a bracelet docking pad having a width which is wider than the width of the band wherein one side of the bracelet docking pad radiates from the band and tapers and arcs to form a hooking implement. Holes are formed in the other side of said bracelet docking pad. A resilient strapping member is tied to the holes and is adapted to hook onto the hooking implement across the bracelet docking pad to secure the bracelet. The band may be elastic or an open-ended or C-shaped spring band made of a flexible metal.
Claims16
A bracelet fastening tool comprising:
- (a) a band which fits around the wrist of a user;
- and,
- (b) a resilient, bracelet-securing bracket coupled to the band wherein said resilient, bracelet-securing bracket comprises:
- (i) a bracelet docking pad having a width which is wider than the width of the band wherein one side of the bracelet docking pad radiates from the band and tapers and arcs to form a hooking implement;
- (ii) means for securing the bracelet docking pad to the band;
- (iii) at least one hole formed in the other side of said bracelet docking pad;
- and,
- (iv) a resilient strapping member tied to said at least one hole and which is adapted to hook onto the hooking implement across the bracelet docking pad to secure the bracelet placed thereon.
A bracelet fastening tool comprising:
- (a) a C-shaped spring band, having two spaced apart and open ends, which fits around the wrist of a user;
- and,
- (b) a resilient, bracelet-securing bracket coupled to the band immediately adjacent to one end of said two spaced apart and open ends, said resilient, bracelet-securing bracket comprising:
- (i) a bracelet docking pad having a width which is wider than the width of the band wherein one side of the bracelet docking pad radiates from the band and tapers and arcs to form a hooking implement;
- (ii) means for securing the bracelet docking pad to the band;
- (iii) at least one hole formed in the other side of said bracelet docking pad;
- and,
- (iv) a resilient strapping member tied to said at least one hole and which is adapted to hook onto the hooking implement across the bracelet docking pad to secure the bracelet placed thereon.
A method of fastening a bracelet with a bracelet fastening tool comprising a resilient, bracelet-securing bracket and an open-ended or C-shaped spring band, the method comprising the steps of:
- (a) placing the open-ended or C-shaped spring band around a user's wrist, the band having two ends;
- (b) overlaying the bracelet on top of the band;
- (c) simultaneous with the step (b), placing one end of the bracelet in a bracelet docking pad of said resilient, bracelet-securing bracket;
- (d) looping a resilient strap, of said resilient, bracelet-securing bracket, having a resilient loop over the bracelet and the bracelet docking pad and onto a hooking implement integrated with said bracelet docking pad;
- and,
- (e) with a free hand of the user, hooking an opposing end of the bracelet with said one end of the bracelet.
