Benefits of technology
The patent describes an assembly of hubs and elastic links that allows for flexibility and adaptability in creating structures. The elastic links are connected to the hubs and can extend outward from them. The assembly can be used to create a closed, continuous structure or a customizable, variably configured structure. The elastic links are flexible and have an inherent bias to return to their original state, making them ideal for use in various devices and objects. The technical effects include versatility, adaptability, and flexibility in creating various structures.
Problems solved by technology
By way of example only jewelry pieces have a tendency to be rigid and thereby are not well adapted to conform to various body portions of the wearer, wherein such jewelry pieces may include bracelets, necklaces, etc.
Such rigidity or lack of adaptability may result in discomfort to the wearer as well as an increase in the possibility of damage to or breakage of the jewelry pieces.

An assembly structured to form a customizable structure, having variably configured geometric characteristics, which includes a plurality of hubs each having an interior chamber and a plurality of housings. Each housing includes an open-ended interior channel communicating with the interior chamber of a common hub. Each of a plurality of elastic links is retained within and extend outwardly from a different one of said interior channels. At least one elastic link may be disposed in interconnecting relation between two attached ones of the plurality of hubs and a predetermined number of a plurality of attached hubs may be interconnected to one another to define a closed, continuously configured array of hubs. A plurality of the closed, continuously configured array of hubs may be disposed in interconnected relation to one another to define one of a possible plurality of the customizable, variably configured structures.
