This disclosure relates generally, in one example embodiment, to a method and/or apparatus of an alternating bi-colored pattern necklace formed through a light offset of a first chain and an nth chain interlaced to form the alternating bi-colored pattern necklace
An individual may be a fan of several sports teams. The individual may not have the money to and/or may not wish to purchase separate spirit wear for each team. The individual may not have an alternative option and/or may be forced to either invest excessive time and/or money in order to attain spirit wear for different teams and/or may not be able to make use of spirit wear when teams are not in season and/or if the individual wishes to support a new team.
A sports team may wish to offer spirit wear to fans. The sports team may not wish to purchase new orders of unrelated items for each giveaway as this may lead to a lack of participation in the giveaways. The lack of relation between the items given away may provide no reason for a fan to attend in multiple giveaways. Additionally, in order to provide fans with options, the sports team may be required to purchase orders of entirely separate varieties of items, leading to large quantities of left over items.
Conventional items of spirit wear may not allow fans to customize their expressions of support for a team and/or may not provide sports teams with a large number of options of customizable spirit wear to offer fans. This may cause the sports team and/or fans to spend large amounts of money and/or effort in order to generate and/or show support for the team. This may lead to decreased team spirit, fan participation, and/or team moral.
Disclosed are a method, a device and/or a system of an alternating bi-colored pattern necklace formed through a light offset of a first chain and an nth chain interlaced to form the alternating bi-colored pattern necklace.
In one aspect, a necklace includes a first chain having a first set of lights that are equally spaced between each other and which are illuminated in a first color when powered through a first battery chamber that forms the first chain into a circular shape when edges of the first chain are coupled together into a first circuit through the first battery chamber. The first battery chamber includes a first clipping end in a male connector orientation. An nth chain having an nth set of lights that are equally spaced between each other and which are illuminated in an nth color when powered through an nth battery chamber that forms the nth chain into the circular shape when edges of the nth chain are coupled together into an nth circuit through the nth battery chamber. The nth battery chamber includes an nth clipping end in a female connector orientation.

In one embodiment, attachment region 108-1 may be a receiving end, and attachment region 108A-2 may be a clipping end. When attaching two or more necklaces 100 together, the first clipping end 108A-2 of the first battery chamber 106A of one necklace 100 may fit into the receiving end 108-1 of the first battery chamber 106A of the subsequent necklace 100 (see discussion of
Reference is now made to
According to one embodiment, the first battery chamber 106A of the first necklace 100A may have attachment regions 108A comprising of a receiving end 108A-1 and the first clipping end 108A-2. Similarly, the nth battery chamber 106B of the nth necklace 100B may have attachment regions 108B comprising of a receiving end 108B-1 and an nth clipping end 108B-2, according to one embodiment. The two necklaces 100A and 100B may be attached together via the attachment regions 108 of the battery compartments 106A and 106B. To attach both battery compartments 106A and 106B, the clipping ends 108A and 108B-2 of first battery chamber 106A may fit into the receiving end 108B-1 of the nth first battery chamber 106B.
According to one embodiment, each battery chamber 106A and 106B may house its own respective battery, which may power its own respective series of light bulbs 104A and 104B. According to another example embodiment, the battery housed in one first battery chamber 106A may power its own series of light-bulbs 104A as well as the nth necklace's 100B series of light bulbs 104B using the same battery that is housed in the first battery chamber 106A without the need for an nth battery in the first battery chamber 106B, after both battery compartments 106A and 106B have been attached via the respective attachment regions 108A and 108B. In one embodiment, the attached necklaces 100A and 100B may form a bi-colored set of lights 202 with the light bulbs 104A and 104B being alternatively aligned.
Although the present embodiments only illustrate the attachment of two necklaces 100, other embodiments may allow for more than two necklaces 100 to be attached together in a similar manner as is disclosed. For example, a third necklace 100C—with respective battery chamber 106C and attachment regions 108C—may attach to the necklaces 100A and 100B by attaching the nth clipping end 108B-2 of the nth (second) battery chamber 106B to the receiving end 108C-1 of the third battery chamber 106C.

The user may be able to record, upload and/or play audio playback 402 (e.g., through the necklace 401) using the mobile device 404, according to one embodiment. Each chain (e.g., the chain 101 and/or the chain 103) of the necklace may have separate audio playback 402 settings and/or capabilities.
An example embodiment will now be described. Bob may have been born and raised in Boston. He may be a faithful fan of the Boston Red Sox, Boston Celtics and the New England Patriot sports teams. Bob may not have the money to purchase separate items of fan wear for each team and/or may not want to purchase necklaces for each team only to wear the necklaces for a small portion of the year (e.g., when the particular team is in season). Bob may see another Boston native wearing the necklaces 100A and 100B and/or may ask the wearer where Bob can buy the necklaces. Bob may be able to purchase the necessary colors to support his three teams, minimizing the number of items he needs, and may be able to get more use out of the necklace than he would otherwise get from having a separate necklace for each team. This may enable Bob to save money and simplify his fan wear collection. Bob may be able to customize his necklace to show support for each team and/or for his city as a whole. For example, Bob may couple a necklace 100A with red lights and decorative three-dimensional forms 400 of socks (e.g., the Red Socks logo) with a necklace 100B with blue lights and three-dimensional forms 400 of footballs, thus showing his support for both the Boston Red Socks and the New England Patriots.
In another example embodiment, a sports team may want to give away team merchandise. The sports team may not want to purchase new items for each giveaway as this may cost more money and/or lead to large quantities of unclaimed (e.g., left over) merchandise. This may also make giveaways isolated events, providing no connection between giveaways and/or providing no incentive to attend a second giveaway after the first.
The sports team may purchase necklaces 100A-N in colors and/or decorative three-dimensional forms 400 that represent the sports team and/or city the sports team is from. This may allow the sports team to give fans team spirit wear (e.g., fan wear) one piece at a time while providing incentives for the fans to come back in order to get an additional necklace 100 of a complimentary color, decorative three-dimensional form 400 etc. The sports team may sell necklaces 100, offering a wide variety of options (e.g., colors and/or decorative three-dimensional forms 400) to fans. Separate sports teams (e.g., teams from the same city) may be able to coordinate in order to provide (e.g., sell and/or give away) complimentary necklaces 100 (e.g., the Boston red socks may give away a necklace 100A with red lights and/or the New England Patriots may give away a necklace 100B with blue lights). This may enable the city to generate a sense of unity among citizens and bring teams and/or fans together. The necklace 100 may provide an easy way for fans to show support for their teams and for sports teams to generate fan participation and team spirit. This may boost senses of pride in teams, increase team moral, and improve the relationship between fans and/or the sports team. While examples have been given regarding professional sports teams, it will be appreciated that the disclosure may relate to collegiate, high school, amateur, and/or youth sports teams as well as advertising campaigns, celebrations (e.g., holidays), and/or any other uses to facilitate self-expression and/or the display of support for an entity.
Although the present embodiments have been described with reference to specific example embodiments, it will be evident that various modifications and changes may be made to these embodiments without departing from the broader spirit or scope of the various embodiments. Accordingly, the specification and drawings are to be regarded in an illustrative rather than in a restrictive sense.
