Accessory making device, accessory making kit, and method for making accessory

An accessory making device for making an accessory, comprising:

• a core formed into a substantially ring shape by connecting both ends of a stretchable cord-like body having rubber-like elasticity;
• connecting portions formed on both end sides of the cord-like body;
• and
• a decoration main body formed of a flexible sheet body into a substantially tubular shape so as to cover a periphery of the core across the entire circumference, and disposed around the core in such a manner so as to abut both ends thereof against each other in a contracted state so as to be reduced in axial length,
• the accessory making device comprising a long rigid holder, the holder comprising:
• a retaining recess to retain the cord-like body;
• and a recessed groove to retain the connecting portions,
• wherein
• the connecting portions are separated from each other,
• the holder is able to be inserted through the decoration main body,
• the holder has a long, substantially linear shape, and
• the making device including a stopper that is attachable and detachable to the holder, and when attached to the holder, restricts the decoration main body covering the outer peripheral side of the holder from extending such as to be restored from a contracted state.

• and a recessed groove to retain the connecting portions,
• a stopper that is disposed in a periphery of the holder and near an end edge of the decoration main body, and restricts the decoration main body covering the outer peripheral side of the holder from extending such as to be restored from a contracted state;
• and
• a support shaft that slidably supports the stopper,
• wherein
• the connecting portions are separated from each other,
• the holder is able to be inserted through the decoration main body,
• the holder has a long, substantially linear shape,
• the making device comprising a mount portion having a bottom surface that can be placed on a mounting surface, wherein the holder is disposed by being supported on the mount portion so as to project from the mount portion,
• the support shaft has a long shape formed projecting from the mount portion so as to lie substantially along the holder, and
• the stopper is pivotally supported to the support shaft so as to be disposed near an end edge of the decoration main body in the periphery of the holder, slidable in an axial direction of the support shaft on the support shaft, and turnable in a circumferential direction of the support shaft, and can press an end edge of the decoration main body in a contracted state.

• connecting portions formed on both end sides of the cord-like body;
• and
• a decoration main body formed of a flexible sheet body into a substantially tubular shape so as to cover a periphery of the core across the entire circumference, and disposed around the core in such a manner so as to abut both ends thereof against each other in a contracted state so as to be reduced in axial length,
• the accessory making device comprising a long rigid holder, the holder comprising:
• a retaining recess to retain the cord-like body;
• and a recessed groove to retain the connecting portions,
• wherein the connecting portions are separated from each other, and
• the holder is able to be inserted through the decoration main body,
• wherein the holder has a long, substantially linear shape,
• the making device comprising a mount portion having a bottom surface that can be placed on a mounting surface, wherein the holder is disposed by being supported on the mount portion so as to project from the mount portion,
• wherein the holder comprises:
• a support portion having a long shape projecting from the mount portion, and including on a tip side thereof, a retaining portion that can retain the connecting portion disposed on one end side of the cord-like body;
• and
• a slider portion disposed near an end portion on a side closer to the mount portion in the support portion, including a through-hole that allows insertion therethrough of the support portion, and capable of sliding movement on the support portion,
• the slider portion is set to a size not to allow insertion through the decoration main body and comprising:
• a retaining recess that can retain a connecting portion disposed on one end side of the cord-like body;
• and
• a pressing surface that is formed so as to cover a periphery of the support portion substantially perpendicularly to a center axis of the support portion across substantially the entire peripheral edge of the through-hole, and can, at the time of sliding movement, press and move an end face of the decoration main body disposed so as to cover the outer periphery of the support portion.

A method for making an accessory comprising:

• providing a core formed into a substantially ring shape by connecting both ends of a stretchable cord-like body having rubber-like elasticity;
• and
• providing a decoration main body formed of a flexible sheet body into a substantially tubular shape so as to cover a periphery of the core across the entire circumference, and disposed around the core in a contracted state so as to be reduced in axial length, in such a manner so as to abut both ends against each other, the accessory being made,
• by use of a long rigid holder,
• first, by attaching the cord-like body to the holder in such a manner so as to respectively retain connecting portions on both end sides of the cord-like body on the holder with the connecting portions of the cord-like body separated from each other,
• then, disposing the decoration main body, in a contracted state so as to be reduced in axial length, on the outer peripheral side of the holder in such a manner so as to make the connecting portions disposed on both end sides of the cord-like body project from openings at both end sides of the decoration main body, and
• connecting the connecting portions on both end sides to each other to form the cord-like body into a ring shape, followed by removal of the decoration main body from the holder.
