The movable buckle is controlled by a switch on the side of the main body. When the movable buckle is retracted into the main body, the gap is exposed, and other accessories can be inserted into the inner ring of the main body. At this time, the movable buckle compresses the spring. When the switch is released, the spring returns to its original position, pushing the movable buckle to close the gap and fix the accessories in the inner ring of the main body, thereby completing the assembly and connection of the jewelry, such as the connection between the chain part and the pendant part of the necklace.
