Definitions

  • the invention relates to a gemstone composite and to a method for its production.
  • a large number of gemstones such as faceted glass stones, have so far mostly been connected in such a way that the gemstones have been provided with holes and two adjacent gemstones have been connected to one another by means of metal wire through the holes. Such an arrangement is expensive. The holes disturb the aesthetic impression.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a gemstone composite, the gemstones can be connected in a simple and less labor-intensive manner, and the visual impression is not impaired.
  • the invention is based on the finding that this object can be achieved in that the gemstones are connected by means of shrinkable plastic threads.
  • the invention relates to a gemstone composite, which is characterized in that a large number of gemstones arranged next to one another are held in a lattice of longitudinal threads and transverse threads, at least the longitudinal threads or the transverse threads engage in the lateral grooves of the gemstones, and the longitudinal threads and transverse threads are shrunk Plastic.
  • the invention further relates to a method for producing a gemstone composite, which thereby is characterized in that in a grid of longitudinal and transverse threads, which consist of a shrinkable plastic, gemstones with lateral grooves are used, so that at least the longitudinal or transverse threads engage in the grooves, and the threads are shrunk.
  • Plastic threads made of shrunk thermoplastic are preferably used.
  • the longitudinal and transverse threads of the grid are preferably welded to one another at the crossing points.
  • the gem stone composite can be single-row. It is suitable for a wide variety of decorative purposes. Such an arrangement is also suitable for jewelry, for example for bracelets.
  • a multi-row or sheet-like configuration can also be considered. Such an arrangement can be used for surface decoration and in particular also in the lighting industry.
  • the term "gemstone” is understood here in its most general form and encompasses all types of gemstones and relates in particular to faceted glass jewelry stones.
  • the shape of the gemstones can be varied, for example square, rectangular, octagonal, round or oval.
  • the size of the gemstones is also variable within wide limits, for example between 5 and 100 mm.
  • the gemstones can be colored in different ways. They can have a wide variety of cuts.
  • the gemstones have lateral grooves to accommodate the plastic threads.
  • the depth and width of the grooves can be, for example, between 0.5 and 5 mm.
  • the grooves are adapted to the diameter of the plastic threads.
  • the strength of the plastic threads depends on the size of the gemstones and the traction requirements.
  • Grooves can only be provided on two parallel side surfaces for receiving the longitudinal or transverse threads. Alternatively, grooves can be provided on all four sides of the gem to accommodate both the longitudinal and the transverse threads.
  • the rectangular gems 2 are held by a grid 3 of longitudinal threads 4 and 5 transverse threads.
  • the longitudinal threads 4 are arranged in longitudinal grooves 6, while the transverse threads 5 run next to the gem stone 2.
  • only the transverse threads 5 can be arranged in transverse grooves 7, and the longitudinal threads 4 can be guided laterally on the gemstones 2.
  • the longitudinal threads 4 are preferably welded to the transverse threads 5 at the crossing points 9. But it is also possible to enter the grid 3 by pressing or stamping to produce in pieces or to glue the transverse and longitudinal threads in a suitable manner.
  • plastic threads are used as plastic threads.
  • the grid is dimensioned so that the gemstones are easy to use.
  • the synthetic threads snap into the lateral grooves, it being sufficient, in order to prevent falling through, that only either the longitudinal threads or the transverse threads come to lie in grooves. For aesthetic reasons, however, it can be advantageous to let both the transverse and the longitudinal threads run in grooves.
  • the plastic threads are subjected to a shrinking process.
  • the shrinking is usually done by heat treatment.
  • the cold-stretched thermoplastic synthetic threads that are preferably used contract back to their original state during the heat treatment. Shrinkages of 3 to 5% or significantly more are easy to achieve. This shrinkage of the plastic threads ensures a firm hold of the gemstones in the grid.
  • Preferred plastics that can be subjected to shrinkage are polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, polypropylene, polystyrene, polyacrylonitrile, polyamide and polycarbonate. Polyamide is particularly preferred. Fiber-reinforced plastics may also be considered.
  • Stretched or stretched plastics are also preferred because of their increased strength.
  • the appropriate shrinkage temperatures are chosen depending on the plastic used. For example, the shrinkage at temperatures between 100 and 120 ° C. Immersion in a correspondingly hot liquid can be achieved.
  • the type and arrangement of the gemstones can be done in many different ways.
  • the distances between the gemstones, their size and design can be varied as required.
  • thinner or thicker plastic threads of different strength can be used.
  • the diameter of the plastic threads are, for example, between 0.3 and 5 mm.
  • the gem stone composites according to the invention can be produced in the simplest and most economical manner and are distinguished by special aesthetics when using, for example, thin, transparent or colored plastic threads.
  • the use of gemstone composites is diverse. Thanks to the free paint ends, simple and secure attachment is possible in a variety of ways.
  • FIG. 2 shows a flat embodiment of the gem stone composite 1.
  • the individual gemstones 2 are combined by longitudinal threads 4 and transverse threads 5, which form a grid 3.
  • the threads 4 and 5 run in lateral grooves (not shown in the top view) of the gemstones 2.
  • Such a flat arrangement is particularly well suited for decorative purposes or in particular for lighting fixtures.
