Patent attributes
A jewelry attachment assembly includes a pair of cylindrical cases. One case has a male section including an annular flange with a pair of diametrically opposing radial splines situated on its periphery. The other case has a female section including a hollow sleeve with a shell. The sleeve includes a pair of diametrically opposite channels formed in the shell. Each channel includes an axially extending slot and an adjoining circumferentially extending slot. During assembly, the male section of one case is joined to the female section of the other case by registration of the pair of splines within the pair of circumferential slots by first guiding the splines through the axial slots, then guiding the splines through the circumferential slots. A pair of opposite polarity magnets are housed in the cases and disposed in adjacent relationship to promote magnetic coupling of the cases.
