Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

[Field of the Invention]

The present invention relates to a method for producing a fashion accessory, an apparatus for carrying out the method and the fashion accessory thus obtained.

More particularly, the present invention relates to necklaces, belts, earrings and bracelets formed from a thread carrier through a decorative element (eg, a perforated pearl or other object).

[0003]

[Prior art]

 At present, solutions are known which consist of passing such elements through individual threads.

[0004]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a method for industrially or industrially producing a fashion product having a variety of variations and high robustness.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

Accordingly, the present invention firstly relates to a method of manufacturing a fashion accessory (eg, a necklace or bracelet including a decorative element through a strand of a carrier), the method comprising a plurality of metal yarns each formed from a plurality of metal yarns. Bending one end of at least one cable formed from the strands of the above, disassembling the unjoined portion of the cable to separate the strands, and passing the decorative element through the thus released strands. I do.

[0006] The cables used are multi-core cables formed from windings of steel yarns used for the transmission of mechanical commands, especially in the field of aeronautics or the automobile. By decomposition,
A pattern-attached strand bundle holding a wave can be formed based on shape memory. The strand itself has a surface condition due to the multifilament structure of the held strand.

Disassembly of the cable formed from N strands is advantageously achieved by means of a device having N holes, each strand passing through one of the holes and connecting the undisassembled end of the cable. Rotational movement is performed to release the strands, and the axial movement causes the unbroken portion of the cable to abut the proximal surface of the device.

It is preferable to perform a degreasing operation and a metal layer coating operation on the disassembled cable.
According to a special variant, the degreasing stage consists of a solvent bath (for example a trichloroethylene bath) at a temperature above ambient temperature and for a period of several hours.

The invention further comprises a plate having N holes (where N is an integer corresponding to the number of strands of the cable to be disassembled), wherein each plate has an extension on its distal surface. The invention relates to a cable disassembly device of the type with a tubular element.

It is advantageous to arrange the tubular elements in order to form a bundle which is symmetrically distributed about a central longitudinal axis. According to a variant, the device comprises a central hole which is extended by a central tubular element.

[0011] The present invention further provides a multi-strand, wherein each strand is formed from a plurality of yarns.
The present invention relates to a fashion accessory comprising a carrier formed by disassembly of a cable and a decorative element passing through at least a part of the released strand.

According to an advantageous variant, at least some decorative elements are passed through two crossed strands.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

FIG. 1 shows a partially disassembled cable. The rear part 8 of the cable corresponds to the undisassembled cable. The cable is composed of seven strands 1-7, one of which constitutes the core 4. Each of the above strands themselves is formed from a bundle of seven yarns of steel, steel alloy, other common metals or noble metals (eg, silver or gold). The released strand has waves due to the shape memory of the strand. The release strands 1-7 form a semi-rigid bundle. The central strand 4 forming the core of the cable has been eliminated.

FIG. 2 shows an embodiment of a fashion accessory (a necklace in this case). This necklace is formed from disassembled cables secured at both ends 10,11 by hook forming elements 12,13. Between the two fixed ends, the cable is disassembled and the strands 1-3, 5-7 are released. The decorative element 15 (in this case, a pearl) runs through the strand. In the case of the above embodiment, two strands pass through each hole of the pearl.

In the case of a small number of pearls 15, the strands 2, 7 pass parallel and in the same direction through the pearl holes. In the case of another pearl 16, the strands 2, 7 intersect inside the hole formed in the pearl 16. Passing two strands through each pearl hole avoids excessive movement of the pearl along the necklace.

FIG. 3 shows a schematic diagram of an apparatus for practicing the present invention. The device consists of a plate 20 having the same number of holes 21-27 as the strands 1-7 forming the cable 28. Each strand passes through one of the holes 21-27. On the rear side of the plate 20, the holes 21-27 transition into tubular elements 31-37 forming a dispersal bundle. The strands pass through the tubular elements 31-37 which form the separator. The cable is supported by the plate 20 and rotated in a direction to release the strand. The central strand 4 passes through the central hole 24 and the tubular element 34, while the other strands pass through holes arranged on a circle centered on the central hole 24.
