Definitions

  • the present invention relates to processes for diamond covering bodies substantially spherical, such as small balls, polyhedral, anyhow prismatic, such as bars, tubes, straps, chains and similar articles being used in the jewelry field and machines being used for these processes.
  • diamond covering is carried out by means of machines which are provided with diamond edged tools, which are provided with diamond edged tools, which, removing some material from the surface of the object, create a plurality of faces having a mirror-like shine, which, being differently oriented create the desired bright aesthetic effect.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide automatic processes for diamond covering objects essentially spherical, anyhow prismatic, such as small balls, microfused pieces, printed, drawn, linked together objects and similar objects, used for the creation of articles in the jewelry field which are simpler than the known processes.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide an automatic process for diamond covering these articles which achieves the diamond covering of the surfaces without the removal of material so that it is not necessary to use removing tools.
  • Still another object is to provide a process for diamond covering in which the effect of the plays of light results stronger and aesthetically more effective that the known processes.
  • Still another object of the invention is to provide an automatic process which ensures a perfect and total diamond covering of the surface of the object being worked without the necessity of regulations or controls, on the part of the operator during the working phase.
  • Still another object of the invention is to provide a machine for diamond covering, essentially spherical, anyhow prismatic objects which functions with the automatic processes of the invention.
  • the automatic process of diamond covering of the invention requires in the first step, that a single object be deposited, always automatically, in a seat as a container, then, the same object is subjected to a punching action by means of a punching apparatus, of known construction, so that on the surface of the same object there is generated a plurality of microcavities which are differently oriented, thus magnifying the plays of the light with significant aesthetic effects.
  • the novel feature of the invention resides mainly in the fact that the single object positions itself, automatically, to each successive action of punching with a different portion of its surface with respect to the top of the punching tool, up to the complete treatment of the entire surface to be diamond covered.
  • the continuous and different positioning of the object occurs automatically due to the fact that the ball is immersed in a turbulent flux of compressed air and the base of the seat for containing the ball is advantageously made of a material which has a certain amount of elasticity, which may be very small.
  • the object is connected to a mechanism which puts the object in motion in a manner that the object is positioned, for every successive action of punching, with a different portion of surface to be diamond covered.
  • the ball With this constructive manner during the punching action, the ball is pushed upwardly so that it continuously hits the top of the tool due to the combination of two actions applied on the ball, the action of the turbulent motion of the compressed air and the action of the elastic reaction of the base against which the same ball is pushed after each punching because it is pushed downwardly by the vibrating alternating motion of the same top of the tool.
  • this ball rotates on itself, due to the two combined effects, in a casual manner so that the ball offers to the tool always a different and new surface to be punched, so that after a certain number of punchings, set forth by the operator, the entire surface is completely diamond covered.
  • a second type of automatic process suitable for diamond covering prismatic articles such as tubes, bars, straps and similar articles, with a circular section, anyhow polygonal
  • the object is connected to a mechanism which puts the object in motion in a manner that the object is positioned, for every successive action of punching, with a different portion to be of surface to be diamond covered.
  • the machine for diamond covering objects which have a shape essentially spherical and anyhow prismatic and functioning according to the processes described hereinabove, comprises the group for feeding the objects to be diamond covered, the group with the seat for containing each object during the diamond covering and the group for supporting the puncher.
  • the ball (1) to be diamond covered is placed in the interior of seat (2) for containment and rests on base (3) made of a material which has some elasticity, even minimal amount.
  • Fig. 2 shows the punching apparatus (4) which through nozzles (5) sends to seat (2) a flux of compressed air which raises the ball from the base so that it hits against tool (6) so that this tool cuts into the surface of the ball.
  • the tool (6) has a motion vibrating alternatively so that the ball in the contact receives a push downwardly which deforms due to compression the base (3) as shown in Fig. 3.
  • the ball (1) is placed in the interior of seat (2) where it is contained and rests on base (3) made of a material having a certain amount of elasticity (see Fig. 5).
  • the machine which is used to carry out the processes described hereinabove comprise a storehouse (7) of balls (1) to be diamond covered which, through conduit (8) provided with pneumatic bulkheads (9) through conduit (8) provided with pneumatic bulkheads (9) are deposited singularly in container (10).
  • This container is capable of undergoing a displacement due to the action of pneumatic cylinder (11) so as to position the ball (1) corresponding to the position of the puncher (4) and above the elastic base (3).
  • the container (10) is further displaced to unload the balls with the diamond covering into the collector (11).
  • the machine which functions according to the general working principle of this invention, provides that the body (1.A) located within seat (20), is placed in motion in order to offer always a new portion of the surface to the punching apparatus (4) due to the action of two wheels (30) disposed with the rotation axes arranged reciprocally which do not belong to the same plane so that the object (1.A) receives a motion which is a combination of axial advance (arrow x) and axial rotation (arrow y).
  • the machine in order to diamond cover the surface of annular bodies, eventually hollow in the interior, such - as rings, bracelets and similar objects, the machine, as shown in Fig. 14, functioning according to the general working principle of this invention, provides that body (1.C) is mounted on a hub (70) and is put in motion in order to offer always a new portion of the surface to the punching apparatus (4), due to a combined motion of axial advance according to arrow W combined with axial rotation according to arrow Z of hub (20).
  • the fitting between hub (70) and the annular body (1.C) with crown (71) be of material which has a certain amount of elasticity, even very small.
