Definitions
- the present invention relates to flexible metal bands used in jewelry to make bracelets or necklaces, for example bracelets or necklaces which have a plurality of section gems on their visible face hexagonal arranged side by side, and embedded in the kittens by invisible seams.
- Each element can have on its upper face a kitten in which a gem is set, but the invention is not not limit to a metal strip of this type.
- each element consists of a lower part, and an upper part arranged above the lower part and linked to the latter by crimping, the upper part being annular and surrounding a sleeve which extends axially from the upper face of the lower part and which is used for crimping the upper part and by the fact that each connecting device is constituted by a ring of triangular shape which links together three adjacent elements, said ring housed in grooves in the upper faces lower parts of said three elements.
- the lower part is annular and has a through hole in the axis of the sleeve; the grooves extend radially from said through hole and the sleeve has axial slots in line with the grooves.
- the bottom room has six grooves perpendicular respectively to the six lateral faces of the lower part.
- the upper part may have on its upper face means for fixing a gem.
- Said fixing means are advantageously constituted by claws formed at the ends of three strips which extend axially from the upper part.
- the drawing shows a flexible metal strip 1 which is fitted on its upper face 2 of a plurality of gems 3, in section hexagonal, arranged side by side and whose edges 4 touch two by two.
- the cylinder head 5 of each gem 3 has grooves horizontal 6 into which claws 7 integral with the metal strip 1.
- the flexible metal strip 1 is produced by a plurality strip elements 10, of hexagonal section, interconnected by fixing devices 11.
- Each strip element 10 has a hexagonal section slightly less than 10 the hexagonal section of a gem 3, and is placed under a gem 3, which provides flexibility to the band 1.
- Each strip element 10 consists of a piece lower 12 shown in Figures 3 to 5 and an upper part 14 shown in Figures 6 to 8, both of section hexagonal.
- the upper part 14 is arranged above the part lower 12, its upper face 15 being in contact with the face upper 16 of the lower part 12.
- the upper part 14 is annular and it surrounds a sleeve 17 which extends axially to from the upper face 16 of the lower part 12.
- the height of the sleeve 17 is greater than the thickness of the upper part 14, so to allow the attachment of the upper part 14 on the part lower 12 by crimping, by plastically deforming the end 18 of the sleeve 17 outward, as shown in the figure 2.
- the part lower 12 is also annular and has a hole through 20 which extends the internal cavity of the sleeve 17.
- Six axial grooves 21 perpendicular to the six lateral faces 22 of the lower part 12 are formed in the upper face 16 of the lower part 12. These grooves 21 extend between the through hole 20 and the side faces 22.
- the sleeve 17 has 6 slots 23 at the right of the grooves 21.
- the fastening devices 11 consist of rings closed, generally triangular in shape with vertices 25 rounded, which are housed in grooves 21 of three lower parts 12 adjacent. The length of each side of this ring 11 is adapted so that the rounded tops 25 fit into the holes through 20 of the lower parts 12 adjacent.
- the mounting of the strip 1 is done as follows: arranges lower parts 12 side by side on a work surface, as shown in Figure 9; then we put the rings 11 in the grooves 21 by passing them through the slots 23 of the sleeves 17; then we place the upper pieces 14 on the lower parts 12 and the ends 18 of the sleeves are deformed 17 by crimping.
- the upper part 14 present on its face upper 26 three strips 27 which extend axially from three alternating edges 28 which have at their ends the claws 7 intended to penetrate the grooves 6 formed in the cylinder head 5 of a gem 3.
- the upper parts 14 are arranged for mounting on the lower parts 12, such so that any lamella 27 of an upper part 14 is disposed between lamellae of adjacent upper pieces.
- the metal strip 1 is thus produced from three pieces different. All the lower parts 12 are identical. It is likewise upper parts 14 and and connecting rings (11). The upper parts 14 and the lower parts 12 are made of known manner using numerically controlled machine tools which allow to obtain the desired machining precision.
