Description

[Technical field]

[0001] This invention relates to clothing accessories, especially button-type accessories. [Background technology]

[0002] Traditionally, pin badges and brooches have been commonly used to attach accessories to clothing, but there are also cover-type accessories that can be worn over buttons. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] No. 3193158 Publication Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] Traditionally, pin badges and brooches have been widely used as a means of attaching accessories to clothing, but these require making holes in the clothing, which can damage the clothing. There are also cover-type accessories that can be placed over buttons, but the size of the button limits how they can be attached, and the thickness of the front of the button when attached reduces the design. The present invention aims to solve these problems of the prior art by providing a button-attached accessory that can be attached without damaging clothing or being restricted by button size, and that has improved design. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a button-attached accessory that is attached using buttons on clothing, and has the following configuration.

[0006] The fastener is provided with a hook-shaped or soft ring-shaped attachment portion, which allows it to be easily attached to the thread fastening portion of a button on clothing or to the button itself.

[0007] The decorative parts are made up of plates printed with three-dimensional objects or characters or patterns, and various designs can be selected according to the user's preferences. With this device, there is no need to make holes in clothing like with conventional pin badges and brooches, and there is no restriction on the size of the button like with cover-type accessories. Furthermore, the decorative part has excellent design and can be attached without adding thickness to the front of the button. Effect of the Invention

[0008] The present invention uses buttons on clothing to attach accessories, and has the following advantages:

[0009] Does not damage clothing Conventional pin badges and brooches require holes to be made in clothing to be attached, which can damage the clothing. This invention uses a hook-shaped or soft ring-shaped attachment part that hooks onto the thread fastener of the button on the clothing or onto the button itself, so there is no risk of making holes or damaging the clothing.

[0010] Increased versatility In the case of the device that is placed over the button, there is a limit to the size of the button, and the types of buttons that can be attached are often limited. In particular, it is difficult to accommodate large or thick buttons. On the other hand, this device uses a hook-shaped or ring-shaped attachment part that can be attached to the thread fastening part of the button, so it can flexibly accommodate buttons of various sizes and shapes and can be used on many types of clothing.

[0011] Design freedom With button-cover types, there are limitations on the thickness and shape of the device itself, which limits the design. With this device, the decorative part and the attachment part are separate, allowing for a variety of designs, such as three-dimensional designs and plates with character patterns. This structure allows users to choose accessories according to their preferences, and can add a high level of decorativeness to clothing.

[0012] Easy and safe to install The device uses a hook-shaped or soft ring-shaped attachment that can be easily attached to and detached from the button, so no special tools are required and anyone can use it easily. [Brief description of the drawings]
