Description

La présente invention concerne une pièce de bijouterie avec un corps de forme généralement annulaire. Une telle pièce de bijouterie peut être par exemple une bague ou un bracelet ou similaire.The present invention relates to a piece of jewelry with a body of generally annular shape. Such a piece of jewelry can be for example a ring or a bracelet or the like.

Dans les exécutions connues de bagues, bracelets ou similaires, ces pièces ou éléments de bijouterie ne peuvent être personnalisés que par une inscription à la surface intérieure ou extérieure du corps de l'élé­ment. Cependant, une telle manière de caractériser la pièce de bijouterie est plus ou moins standard, la "personnalisation" se réduisant à une inscription différente pour chaque pièce. Il existe donc un besoin pour la réalisation de pièces de bijouterie suscepti­bles d'une personnalisation plus individuelle et diffé­rente de celle des pièces connues. En conséquence, le but de la présente invention est de réaliser une pièce de bijouterie porteuse d'éléments participant à son esthétique et prévus pour se prêter à une personnali­sation améliorée. Pour atteindre ce but, la pièce de bijouterie selon l'invention est réalisée comme décrit dans la revendication 1.In the known versions of rings, bracelets or the like, these pieces or elements of jewelry can only be personalized by an inscription on the interior or exterior surface of the body of the element. However, such a way of characterizing the piece of jewelry is more or less standard, the "personalization" being reduced to a different inscription for each piece. There is therefore a need for the production of pieces of jewelry capable of more individual personalization and different from that of known pieces. Consequently, the object of the present invention is to produce a piece of jewelry carrying elements contributing to its aesthetics and intended to lend themselves to improved personalization. To achieve this object, the piece of jewelry according to the invention is produced as described in claim 1.

Le mobile contribue par sa forme et éventuellement par sa décoration à l'esthétique générale de la pièce de bijouterie et il permet une personnalisation améliorée par le fait que lorsqu'il coulisse sur le corps annulai­re de la pièce, il découvre et libère un décor se trou­vant normalement dans un logement de forme correspondan­te de la surface extérieure du corps annulaire, ce décor ayant une configuration ronde ou de forme, par exemple un coeur, qui peut être choisie à volonté par le pro­priétaire de la pièce de bijouterie. Le décor est attaché à un bras pivotant qui peut être écarté du corps annulaire avec le décor libéré. Lorsque le bras est écarté du corps, il découvre une inscription person­nelle, par exemple "LOVE" à la surface extérieure du corps et il peut comporter lui-même à sa face tournée vers l'intérieur (vers le corps) par exemple le nom du fabricant ou du distributeur de la pièce de bijouterie et à sa partie extérieure par exemple le nom du proprié­taire de la pièce et/ou une date marquante de la vie de ce dernier. La pièce selon l'invention comporte donc des éléments qui contribuent à sa personnalisation. En outre, le mobile, le décor et le bras sont des éléments mobiles qui participent à l'esthétique de la pièce tout en contribuant à sa personnalisation.The mobile contributes by its shape and possibly by its decoration to the general aesthetics of the piece of jewelry and it allows improved personalization by the fact that when it slides on the annular body of the piece, it discovers and releases a decor normally found in a housing of corresponding shape of the outer surface of the annular body, this decoration having a round or shaped configuration, for example a heart, which can be chosen at will by the owner of the piece of jewelry. The decoration is attached to a pivoting arm which can be moved away from the annular body with the decoration released. When the arm is removed from the body, it discovers a personal inscription, for example "LOVE" on the exterior surface of the body and it may itself have its face facing inwards (towards the body) for example the name of the manufacturer or of the distributor of the piece of jewelry and its external part, for example the name of the owner of the piece and / or a significant date in the life of the latter. The part according to the invention therefore comprises elements which contribute to its personalization. In addition, the mobile, the decor and the arm are mobile elements which contribute to the aesthetics of the room while contributing to its personalization.

L'invention va être décrite plus en détail ci-après à l'aide du dessin de deux formes d'exécution.

  • La figure 1 est une vue latérale d'une bague selon une première forme d'exécution de l'invention,
  • La figure 2 est une vue latérale d'un mobile,
  • La figure 3 est une vue en plan du mobile selon figure 2,
  • La figure 4 montre un cabochon,
  • La figure 5 est une vue partielle en plan du corps annulaire de la bague selon figure 1,
  • La figure 6 est une vue en plan d'un bras avec un décor, et
  • La figure 7 est une vue latérale d'un bracelet selon une deuxième forme d'exécution de l'invention.
The invention will be described in more detail below using the drawing of two embodiments.
  • FIG. 1 is a side view of a ring according to a first embodiment of the invention,
  • FIG. 2 is a side view of a mobile,
  • FIG. 3 is a plan view of the mobile according to FIG. 2,
  • Figure 4 shows a cabochon,
  • FIG. 5 is a partial plan view of the annular body of the ring according to FIG. 1,
  • FIG. 6 is a plan view of an arm with a decoration, and
  • Figure 7 is a side view of a bracelet according to a second embodiment of the invention.

La figure 1 montre le corps annulaire 1 d'une bague selon une première forme d'exécution de l'invention. Ce corps porte un bras 2 susceptible de pivoter autour d'un axe 3 monté dans le corps 1. La partie intérieure du bras 2 est normalement engagée dans un logement 4 de forme correspondante prévu dans la face extérieure du corps 1. A son extrémité libre, le bras comporte un anneau 5 dans lequel passe une boucle 6 qui traverse également un anneau 7 monté à une extrémité d'un décor 8 en forme de coeur dans l'exemple illustré, l'autre extrémité de ce décor étant libre. Le décor 8 est engagé dans un logement 9 de forme correspondante prévu dans la face extérieure du corps 1. La forme du décor peut être choisie à volonté par le propriétaire de la bague. La figure 6 montre que la partie intérieure du bras peut comporter une inscription, par exemple le nom du fabri­cant ou du distributeur de la bague. La bague comporte encore un mobile 10 illustré dans les figures 2 et 3. Ce mobile comporte une ouverture traversante 10a prévue pour recevoir le corps annulaire 1. En conséquence, le mobile 10 chevauche le corps 1 avec jeu, de sorte qu'il peut coulisser librement sur ce dernier. Normalement, le mobile 10 est verrouillé au corps 1 par un cabochon 11 dont l'axe 12 traverse la partie supérieure du mobile 10 dans laquelle il est vissé et vient s'engager dans un dégagement 13 à la face extérieure du corps 1. Pour libérer le mobile 10, il suffit de dévisser le cabochon 11 jusqu'à ce que l'extrémité de son axe 12 sorte du dégagement 13. Le cabochon est retenu au mobile 10 par un écrou 14. La figure 4 montre que le cabochon 11 peut comporter par exemple une pierre précieuse ou une tête en or 11a comme décoration. De même, le mobile 10 peut être rendu plus esthétique par des cannelures 15 (fig.3). En outre, le cabochon 11 et le mobile 10 peuvent être décorés de pierres précieuses.Figure 1 shows the annular body 1 of a ring according to a first embodiment of the invention. This body carries an arm 2 capable of pivoting about an axis 3 mounted in the body 1. The internal part of the arm 2 is normally engaged in a housing 4 of corresponding shape provided in the external face of the body 1. At its free end , the arm includes a ring 5 through which passes a loop 6 which also passes through a ring 7 mounted at one end of a decoration 8 in the shape of a heart in the example illustrated, the other end of this decoration being free. The decor 8 is engaged in a housing 9 of corresponding shape provided in the outer face of the body 1. The shape of the decor can be chosen at will by the owner of the ring. Figure 6 shows that the inner part of the arm can include an inscription, for example the name of the manufacturer or the distributor of the ring. The ring also has a mobile 10 illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 3. This mobile has a through opening 10a designed to receive the annular body 1. Consequently, the mobile 10 overlaps the body 1 with play, so that it can slide freely on the latter. Normally, the mobile 10 is locked to the body 1 by a cap 11 whose axis 12 crosses the upper part of the mobile 10 in which it is screwed and engages in a clearance 13 on the outer face of the body 1. To release the mobile 10, it suffices to unscrew the cabochon 11 until the end of its axis 12 comes out of the clearance 13. The cabochon is retained on the mobile 10 by a nut 14. FIG. 4 shows that the cabochon 11 may include for example a precious stone or a gold head 11a as decoration. Similarly, the mobile 10 can be made more aesthetic by grooves 15 (fig.3). In addition, the cabochon 11 and the mobile 10 can be decorated with precious stones.

La figure 1 montre que lorsque le mobile 10 est ver­rouillé au corps 1 par le cabochon 11 vissé, sa partie de droite en figure 2 recouvre et cache entièrement le décor 8 dont la face extérieure vient pratiquement à fleur de la face extérieure du corps 1. Le mobile 10 comporte un dégagement 16 prévu pour recevoir l'anneau 7 du décor. Comme indiqué plus haut, le mobile 10 est libéré en dévissant le cabochon 11. Le mobile libéré peut alors être déplacé sur le corps 1, vers la gauche en figure 1, ce qui a pour effet de découvrir et de libérer le décor 8. Le bras 2 avec le décor 8 peut alors être écarté du corps 1 par pivotement autour de l'axe 3, ce qui permet d'une part de lire l'inscription que le bras 2 porte à sa face intérieure et d'autre part de découvrir une nouvelle inscription, par exemple "LOVE" prévue à la surface du logement 4 du bras 2 dans la face externe du corps 1 (v. aussi fig.5).Figure 1 shows that when the mobile 10 is locked to the body 1 by the screw cap 11, its right part in Figure 2 completely covers and hides the decoration 8, the external face of which comes practically flush with the external face of the body 1. The mobile 10 has a clearance 16 provided for receiving the ring 7 from the decoration. As indicated above, the mobile 10 is released by unscrewing the cap 11. The released mobile can then be moved on the body 1, to the left in FIG. 1, which has the effect of discovering and releasing the decor 8. The arm 2 with the decoration 8 can then be moved away from the body 1 by pivoting around the axis 3, which allows on the one hand to read the inscription that the arm 2 carries on its inner face and on the other hand to discover a new inscription, for example "LOVE" provided on the surface of the housing 4 of the arm 2 in the external face of the body 1 (see also fig.5).

Ce qui précède montre que la bague peut être mise essentiellement dans deux conditions. Dans la première condition, le mobile avec le cabochon est verrouillé au corps annulaire 1, le décor 8 n'est pas visible et le bras 2 est couché contre la face extérieure du corps 1 dans son logement 4. La seule inscription visible est celle qui peut être prévue à la face extérieure du bras. Dans la seconde condition, le mobile avec le cabochon 11 est déverrouillé et il peut coulisser librement sur le corps 1 de manière à découvrir le décor 8. Le bras 2 avec le décor 8 à son extrémité peut alors être écarté du corps 1 par rotation autour de l'axe 3, ce qui permet de lire les inscriptions à la face intérieure du bras et à la face extérieure du logement du bras dans le corps 1, cette dernière ins­cription étant normalement cachée par le bras. Le mobile 10 et le cabochon 11 peuvent être de configura­tion telle qu'elle améliore l'esthétique de la bague et ces éléments peuvent être décorés de pierres précieu­ses.The above shows that the ring can be put in essentially two conditions. In the first condition, the mobile with the cap is locked to the annular body 1, the decoration 8 is not visible and the arm 2 is lying against the outside face of the body 1 in its housing 4. The only visible inscription is that which can be provided on the outside of the arm. In the second condition, the mobile with the cap 11 is unlocked and it can slide freely on the body 1 so as to uncover the decoration 8. The arm 2 with the decoration 8 at its end can then be moved away from the body 1 by rotation around of axis 3, which makes it possible to read the inscriptions on the inside face of the arm and on the outside face of the housing of the arm in the body 1, this last inscription being normally hidden by the arm. The mobile 10 and the cabochon 11 can be of a configuration such that it improves the aesthetics of the ring and these elements can be decorated with precious stones.

La figure 7 montre un bracelet selon une deuxième forme d'exécution de l'invention. Ce bracelet est conçu selon le même principe que la bague décrite ci-dessus. La figure 7 correspond à la figure 1 et les figures 2 à 6 sont valables à la fois pour la bague et le bracelet. Les mêmes éléments sont désignés par les mêmes chiffres de référence. Dans le cas du bracelet, le corps est en deux parties 20 et 21 réunies par une charnière 22 pour permettre l'ouverture du bracelet lorsque le mobile 10 est déplacé sur la partie 21 du corps du bracelet à partir de la position de verrouillage. En outre, l'ex­trémité de l'axe 12 du cabochon 11 vient, en position de verrouillage, dans un dégagement 23 de la partie 21 du corps du bracelet. Le déplacement du mobile 10 sur la partie 21 libère non seulement le décor 8 comme dans le cas de la bague, mais encore les parties 20 et 21 du corps de bracelet encastrées l'une dans l'autre à l'endroit du dégagement 23, de sorte que le bracelet peut être ouvert en écartant simplement ces parties l'une de l'autre. La course du mobile 10 sur la partie 21 du corps peut être limitée si nécessaire par une butée.Figure 7 shows a bracelet in a second form of the invention. This bracelet is designed according to the same principle as the ring described above. Figure 7 corresponds to Figure 1 and Figures 2 to 6 are valid for both the ring and the bracelet. The same elements are designated by the same reference numbers. In the case of the bracelet, the body is in two parts 20 and 21 joined by a hinge 22 to allow the opening of the bracelet when the mobile 10 is moved on the part 21 of the body of the bracelet from the locked position. In addition, the end of the axis 12 of the cap 11 comes, in the locked position, in a clearance 23 from the part 21 of the body of the bracelet. The movement of the mobile 10 on the part 21 not only frees the decoration 8 as in the case of the ring, but also the parts 20 and 21 of the bracelet body embedded in one another at the location of the clearance 23, so that the bracelet can be opened by simply moving these parts apart. The travel of the mobile 10 on the part 21 of the body can be limited if necessary by a stop.
