Cufflinks for long-sleeve garments to control the length of the garment's sleeve at the wrist

Abstract

A cufflink device for sleeves with no cufflink hole. The cufflink device selectively controls a position of a sleeve relative to a wrist through the device providing the following: a base plate having a curvature dimensioned and adapted to conform with a wrist of a wearer; the base plate defined by a first end, a second end, a leading edge and a trailing edge a first top plate connected to the base plate at a first intersection of the leading edge and the first end; a second top plate connected to the base plate at a second intersection of the leading edge and the second end; and a closure flap pivotably connected to a proximal edge of the first top plate in such a way that the closure flap is movable between an open position and a closed position urging the first and second top plates toward the base plate.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A device controlling a position of a sleeve relative to a wrist of a wearer, the device comprising:
 a base plate having a curvature dimensioned and adapted to conform with a wrist of a wearer;   the base plate defined by a first end, a second end, a leading edge and a trailing edge   a first top plate connected to the base plate at a first intersection of the leading edge and the first end;   a second top plate connected to the base plate at a second intersection of the leading edge and the second end; and   a closure flap pivotably connected to a proximal edge of the first top plate in such a way that the closure flap is movable between an open position and a closed position urging the first and second top plates toward the base plate.   
     
     
         2 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein in the closed position the closure flap extends past a distal edge of the second top plate. 
     
     
         3 . The device of  claim 2 , further comprising a gripper button forming each of the first and second intersections. 
     
     
         4 . The device of  claim 3 , further comprising a plurality of grippers along an inner surface of the base plate and an inner surface of each of the first and second top plates so that at least a plurality of occluding pairs of grippers are provided. 
     
     
         5 . The device of  claim 4 , wherein each gripper button is operatively associated with at least one of the pluralities of occluding pairs of grippers in such a way that each occluding pair is moveable between an engaged position and a disengaged position. 
     
     
         6 . The device of  claim 5 , further comprising a plurality of protruding pads disposed along an outer surface of the curvature. 
     
     
         7 . The device of  claim 6 , further comprising a sensor operatively associated with each protruding pads and a control circuitry, wherein the control circuitry is configured to export data sensed by each sensor.
