A), and a male part composed of a tongue like a "V" with a half round shape,it is made in white gold because this metal is more elastic than others. A part is attached to the cylinder and the other, a bit shorter, has a cock's comb that you press to |

start the meccanism (dis. B-C) on the half round part of the tongue in the narrowest part of the female cylinder there's a stop of the closing. The click of the meccanism is precise so you can rely on it. A good thing to do is to sometimes add on the sides an "eight"of security

A spring clip and a spring ring closing
These are used for small and light objects. They usually open easily if they are used in their most resistant parts. The spring clip is an oval hook (dis. A) (fastener) with a rectilinear line that moves like a spring . The spring ring is a round (clasp, fastener) hook with a tubular part that has the form of a "C" that has a spring in it that pushes out of the tube a hinge to complete the closing of the circle (dis.
