Definitions

  • the invention relates to a jewelery chain, such as a neck, wrist or ankle chain according to the preamble of claim 1 and a method for producing such a jewelery chain.
  • This jewelry chain has an elastic support element on which a circumferential arrangement of decorative elements is held. Furthermore, the jewelry chain on connecting elements, through which the elastic support member extends through each. In each case two adjacent decorative elements are held so movable on the connecting elements that they can be spaced apart by spreading the elastic support member to a maximum distance.
  • Such jewelry chains can be spread when you put on or off and when wearing up to a certain width to be able to be touched in the closed circumferential state over the head, hand or foot or with exactly adapted width to the body part in question.
  • the elastic support member which is formed for example by an elastic band of at least partially elastomeric plastic or by an elongated spring element, preferably completely absorbed.
  • the support element is not visible to the outside and thus can not affect the appearance of the jewelry chain, especially if this is to convey a certain high quality.
  • EP 2 712 513 A2 is an elastic tennis bracelet known in which a circumferential spring element a plurality of cuboid connecting elements is mounted, in each case a cylindrical through hole is admitted.
  • the connecting elements each have a collar at their ends, so that a two-part box-shaped decorative element can be plugged on in each case two adjacent connecting elements such that it is in a limited movable engagement with both connecting elements.
  • a disadvantage of the known jewelry chain here is that the production of jewelry elements and their attachment to the fasteners are very expensive.
  • the freedom of design with respect to the jewelry elements and the jewelry chain is relatively limited due to the special way of fastening the jewelry elements.
  • the object of the invention is to avoid the disadvantages mentioned in a generic jewelry chain and to allow easier production.
  • the connecting elements are formed by fracture sections of a hollow profile body which is arranged on the elastic support element, in the sense of being pushed or pulled onto it.
  • the fracture sections on ends which are each formed by a broken breaking point, whereby the connecting elements produced by canceling can be provided with an exact predetermined length.
  • the fracture sections at both ends in each case a cross-sectional widening, whereby at the ends of the fracture sections the production of a positive connection, each with a decorative element for limiting the relative movement of two adjacent decorative elements is particularly easy to implement.
  • the connecting elements can be made of a commercially available hollow profile body, which is divided only in the manufacture of jewelry chain in theddington sermonden sections and provided with the required cross-sectional extensions.
  • the hollow profile body is formed by a hollow wire, whereby on the one hand, the production of the connecting elements with a small maximum cross-sectional extension of, for example, not more than 2 mm and on the other hand a simple threading through the elastic support member is possible.
  • the hollow profile body is made of precious metal or a noble metal alloy.
  • the fasteners can be made of a high quality material, whereby the jewelry chain in its entirety can convey a high-quality impression.
  • the decorative elements each have two engagement openings, projecting into the two adjacent connecting elements.
  • the cross-sectional widenings of the two respective ends of these connecting elements are accommodated within a cavity of the decorative elements, wherein the cross-sectional widenings have a greater extent in the transverse direction to the main extension direction of the connecting elements than the engaging openings of the decorative element.
  • the jewelery elements are formed by a longitudinally cold material which is in particular cold-deformed around the elastic support element and the connecting elements.
  • the jewelry elements can be particularly easily and in particular machined, where they can be placed directly on the fasteners. This eliminates a separate, in particular manual attachment of the decorative elements on the rest of the jewelry chain, which in turn allows a particularly cost-effective completion of the same.
  • the length material is formed from a metal strip, which allows a particularly simple mechanical deformation of the length material and versatile shaping of the jewelry elements.
  • the metal strip is made of a noble metal or a noble metal alloy, which allows the production of particularly high-quality jewelry elements.
  • the decorative elements are rotationally symmetrical, which ensures easier on and off as well as a high wearing comfort of the jewelry chain.
  • the above object is achieved by a method for producing a jewelry chain in one of the above-mentioned embodiments, wherein in a first step, the elastic support member is retracted into the hollow profile body. In a subsequent second step then the cross-sectional widenings are successively at one of the hollow profile body with the inner elastic carrier element passed machine device preferably incorporated by cold deformation in the hollow profile body. In this case, a predetermined breaking point is additionally formed between the two mutually adjacent cross-sectional enlargements of two adjacent fracture sections. In a subsequent step, these predetermined breaking points are broken up by recurring deflection of the hollow profile body in the transverse direction one after the other and the fracture sections are thereby singulated. This process allows the production of individual fasteners with already retracted elastic support element, which greatly simplifies the production of the jewelry chain as a whole.
  • the length material is continuously deformed around the hollow profile body.
  • This can be done for example by a mechanical device that continuously forces the strip-shaped length material, in particular by cold forming, into a substantially cylindrical profile that encloses the hollow profile body.
  • the hollow profile body or the connecting elements made therefrom with the elastic element already received can be arranged particularly easily within the decorative elements.
  • the decorative elements are produced by, in particular, cold forming of the length material into hollow bodies by a machine device through which the length material passes. Between the hollow bodies thereby second predetermined breaking points are formed, which serve for later separation of the decorative elements by breaking.
  • cold forming the hollow body or the later decorative elements can be brought with already recorded fasteners in almost any shape, which allows a particularly large freedom of design in the production of jewelry chain.
  • the second predetermined breaking points by recurrent deflection of the cold-formed length material broken in succession in the transverse direction and the molded hollow body thereby be separated. This process allows the production of individual jewelry elements with already recorded fasteners, which greatly simplifies the production of the jewelry chain as a whole.
  • Fig. 1 shows a jewelery chain 2 using the example of a wrist chain with an almost completely encircling elastic element 4, which is formed for example by an elastic plastic band.
  • elastic element 4 is here a circumferential arrangement of decorative elements 6, 6 A held, which are for example spherical.
  • the decorative elements 6 in this case have, for example, a matching size, wherein the only larger decorative element 6A serves to receive two decorative elements 6, which are each arranged at one end of the elastic element 4.
  • the decorative element 6A acts as a solid closure of the jewelry chain 2, through which this has a non-opening in normal use circumferential shape.
  • the jewelery chain 2 also has an almost completely circumferential arrangement of connecting elements 8, each of which is in engagement with two adjacent jewelery elements 6 and through which the elastic element 4 extends, in particular from Fig. 2 can be seen.
  • the connecting elements 8 act during spreading of the jewelery chain 2 as end stops, which define a maximum distance Imax, to which two adjacent decorative elements 6 can be spaced from each other in the case taking place stretching the elastic support member 4.
  • the connecting elements 8 are held for this purpose in each case to two engagement openings 10 of the two adjacent decorative elements 6 displaced.
  • the connecting elements 8 themselves are, as in particular from Fig. 5 can be seen, formed by fracture sections 12 of a hollow profile body 14, the ends of which are formed by broken breaking points 16.
  • the original hollow profile body 14 may be formed for example by a hollow wire made of precious metal or a noble metal alloy.
  • FIG. 4 formed at the ends of cross-sectional widenings 18, which have a transverse extent qV, which is greater than a corresponding transverse extent qE of the engagement openings 10.
  • the cross-sectional extensions 18 of the connecting elements 8 are formed by areas at the ends of the fracture sections 12, which are incorporated by cold deformation in addition to the predetermined breaking point 16 in the originally contiguous hollow profile body 14.
  • the hollow body 20, from which the decorative elements 6 are produced are also produced by cold deformation of a noble metal or a noble metal alloy, wherein they may alternatively have any other shape in addition to the spherical shape shown.
  • the decorative elements 6 have a rotationally symmetrical shape, which may be formed in addition to the spherical shape shown, for example, by an ellipsoidal or lens shape.
  • the hollow body 20 are formed from a continuous length material 22, such as a metal strip or an elongated metal sheet of a noble metal or a noble metal alloy, in which the hollow profile body 14 is received with internal elastic element 4.
  • the hollow body 20 are connected to each other via constricted areas, the second predetermined breaking points 24 form, which must be broken to separate the decorative elements 6.
  • the method for producing the jewelry chain 2 is described below with reference to the schematic representation of a system 26 for performing a corresponding manufacturing method in Fig. 6 explained.
  • the elastic element 4 is initially introduced in a first step into the hollow profile body 14 in such a way that it extends over its entire length. Subsequently, the hollow profile body 14 with the elastic element 4 accommodated therein, as shown, passes through a first mechanical device 28 for carrying out a second method step.
  • this device 28 has, for example, two presses 30 which are movable relative to one another and which incorporate the cross-sectional enlargements 18 and the predetermined breaking points 16 into the hollow profile body 14 by cold deformation. In this way, thus already the fracture sections 12 are set, which are separated later to the connecting elements 8.
  • the hollow profile body 14 passes through a second mechanical device 32 at which the length material 22 is fed to the hollow profile body 14.
  • the second mechanical device 32 in this case has forming means 34, by means of which the length material 22, which has a multiple extent transversely to the longitudinal direction relative to the hollow profile body 14, is wrapped around the hollow profile body 14 in a cylindrical manner by cold forming.
  • the arrangement thus produced from the hollow profile body 14 and the deformed length material 22 then passes through a third machine device 36, which has a plurality of forming tools 38, which act successively on the length material 22.
  • the forming tools 38 are in this case coordinated with one another in such a way that they progressively transform the length material 22, which encloses the hollow profile body 14, by cold forming into the desired shape of the hollow body 20.
  • the resulting in this way for example, spherical hollow body 20 are connected by constrictions, which form the second predetermined breaking points 24.
  • the hollow body 20 are arranged such that in each case one of the predetermined breaking points 16 is arranged with the two associated cross-sectional extensions 18 each within one of the hollow body 20.
  • the arrangement of hollow bodies 20 and hollow profile body 14 is fed to a fourth mechanical device 40, which has, for example, tubular guide means 42 and transverse to this movable deflection means 44.
  • a fourth mechanical device 40 which has, for example, tubular guide means 42 and transverse to this movable deflection means 44.
  • the output chain obtained in this way must now be tailored to the production of the surrounding jewelry chain 2 only to the appropriate length, if it has not already been produced in the intended length.
  • the two ends of the elastic element 4 in a known and suitable manner. are arranged against the arranged at these ends jewelry elements 6 or fasteners 8 and then in turn, for example, attached via a suitable closure to each other, such as by receiving in the large decorative element 6A, according to Fig. 1 ,
