Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the chains of jewelry.
  • the invention relates to a jewelry chain having articulated links two two, this chain with first links that each comprise two half-links joined together, these first links each extending substantially according to a plane and being pivotally connected to the links adjacent, by pivots all parallel to the planes respective ones of said first links.
  • EP-A-0 313 711 describes an example of a such chain of jewelery, comprising only first links.
  • the two half-links of each of these first links are assembled together by simple mutual interlocking of two grooves formed respectively in these half-links, the half-links being prevented from disassemble thanks to their assembly without game on pins all parallels that connect the links.
  • This type of assembly has the disadvantage of being incompatible with a chain whose adjacent links would be perpendicular two to two, which is desirable in some cases.
  • the assembly in question can sometimes lack of resistance, as long as the chain does not hold that thanks to the play-free engagement of the pins in the semi-links.
  • this chain of the prior art does not allow not to allow a relative movement between the links other than the pivoting around the pins all parallel: a certain freedom of movement may sometimes be desirable.
  • a chain of jewelery of the kind in question is characterized in that it also includes different second links first links and arranged alternately with said first links, each of the second links forming a continuous ring (this continuity may be the case may be obtained by soldering or soldering several between them) and extending substantially plane, the respective plans of these second links being substantially perpendicular to the plans of the first adjacent links, and the half links of each first link being joined together by soldering and / or brazing thus forming a continuous ring of matter.
  • FIG. 1 represents a bracelet 1 comprising a chain 2 according to one embodiment of the invention which, in the example shown, bears charms 3.
  • the chain 2 is formed by an alternation of first and second links metal 4, 5 shaped rings that are hinged two at two and substantially perpendicular two by two.
  • These links 4, 5 are here all of identical general form, substantially square with rounded corners and they penetrate the in each other leaving a free space in the center each link. This free space preferably presents a dimension greater than the thickness of the links.
  • the hollow space in the center of each link 4, 5 has dimensions 1 greater than a thickness e of a link, in two perpendicular directions between they are included in the plane of said link.
  • the dimensions 1 of space are identical in the two directions X, Y or Y, Z of link 4, 5 considered (see Figures 3 and 5), but could possibly go otherwise.
  • the thickness e of each link 4, 5 is identical here whether it is measured in the plane of the link or perpendicularly to this plane but it could also to go otherwise, if necessary.
  • the first links 4, one of which is represented in FIG. 3, consist of two half-links 4 a, 4b each extending in a plane X, Y where X and Y are two perpendicular axes that are parallel respectively at the sides 9, 10 of the link 4.
  • this link forms indentations 8 open towards the interior said link.
  • Each of these indentations 8 is crossed by a metal pin 7 which is parallel to the axis longitudinal X of the corresponding side 10 of the link, and which serves as axis of rotation between the links 4, 5.
  • each of the two half-links 4a, 4b thus forms two opposite sides 9 complete of link 4 and two half-sides opposite, respectively 10a for the half-link 4a and 10b for the half-link 4b.
  • the half-sides 10a, 10b of the half-links form respectively two halves 8a, 8b of each of notches 8 and extend towards each other until facing end faces 6a, 6b which form the junctions 6 mentioned above when the half-links are assembled.
  • each of the half links 4a, 4b comprises two blind holes 11 open towards the inside of the link and in which are fitted the ends 7a, 7b of the pins 7.
  • each pin 7 Before the assembly of the links 4, one of the ends of each pin 7 is nested and welded into the corresponding blind hole 11 of one of the two half-links 4a, 4b, while a drop of solder 14 is deposited at the molten state then solidified at the opposite end of each pin (in the example shown in Figure 4, each half-link 4a, 4b is thus assembled to one of the pins 7 of the corresponding link, but of course, the two pins 7 could thus be assembled to advance to the same half-link).
  • the half links 4a, 4b links 4 are assembled by nesting (preferably by force) of the ends of pins 7 with solder drops 14 in the holes corresponding one-eyed 11 while engaging said pins 7 in the second links 5, as it will be explained below.
  • the half-links 4a, 4b forming the first links 4 are assembled together by soldering and soldering (where applicable, the assembly could be done by soldering to both ends of the pins 7), so that the first links 4 each form a ring of continuous material and have excellent mechanical strength.
  • the end faces 6a, 6b of the half-sides 10a, 10b may be provided with pins 12 and the others, blind holes 13 receiving the pins 12 by interlocking during the assembly of the half-links 4a, 4b.
  • This nesting has the effect, on the one hand, to favor the correct positioning of the half-links and, on the other hand, to further increase the mechanical strength of the link 4.
  • each second link 5 of the chain 2 extends substantially in a plane Y, Z (Z being an axis perpendicular to the above-mentioned X and Y axes) and presents two opposite sides 15 extending along the Y axis parallel to the sides 9 of the first links 4, and two opposite sides 16 extending substantially along the Z axis perpendicular to the longitudinal axis X of the sides 10 of the first links.
  • Each of the sides 16 of the second links 5 has, substantially in its center, two recesses 17 in the form of grooves substantially parallel to the Y axis, the grooves 17 on each side 16 being arranged so substantially symmetrical with respect to the average plane Y, Z of the second link 5.
  • a through hole 18 parallel to the axis X.
  • each hole 18 receives with play one of the pins 7 of a first link 4 adjacent.
  • hole 18 advantageously has a double shape diverging, flaring out from the middle part of hole 18 to the ends of this hole, which open into the 17.
  • each side 16 of the second links 5 is received with clearance in the corresponding indentation 8 of the first corresponding link 4.
  • each second link 5 can not only rotate around the X axis of each pin 7 on which he is engaged, but also rotate with limited travel (for example, 5 to 30 °, advantageously 10 to 20 °) around the Y and Z axes by relative to the first adjacent links 4.
