Description

  The present invention relates to an ornament such as a ring, a necklace, a brooch and a bracelet to which a jewel is attached.

As such a decorative tool, Patent Document 1 proposes a ring in which two protrusions are provided on a ring-shaped support member (a decorative tool body) and fixed so that a jewelry frame is sandwiched with a screw in the center. The top of the jewel frame has pointed protrusions, and the front of the jewel part is related to the tilt angle of the finger by suppressing the frictional resistance by supporting the jewel frame with dots on the screws by these protrusions. It is always at the top due to gravity action, and keeps shaking from side to side even with slight vibration.
JP 2002-142817 A

  By the way, as described in Patent Document 1, when fixing the jewelry frame so as to sandwich the jewelry frame with the screws provided on the two protrusions, the front of the jewelry always faces upward as described above, and with slight vibration. In order to keep the jewelry frame from shaking, the pinching force by the screw cannot be increased too much.

However, if the clamping force by this screw is small, the jewel will come off the support member together with the frame even if the jewel or jewel frame is inadvertently pressed against the support member side, or conversely pulled from the support member. May lose expensive jewelry. Further, if the jewel frame protrusions are simply supported by screws, it is difficult to keep the jewel frame always facing the upper part of the jewel frame that continues to sway from side to side even with slight vibration as described above.
Furthermore, since the jewel frame is arranged so as to surround the jewel, a part of the jewel is covered with the jewel frame, and the beauty of the jewel itself is halved.

  The present invention has been made under such a background, and while preventing the gemstone from swinging, it can prevent the accidental removal and loss of the gemstone, and the beauty of the gemstone itself. The purpose is to provide a decoration that can bring out the maximum amount.

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problems and achieve such an object, the present invention is a decorative tool in which a gemstone is swingably attached to a main body of the decorative tool, and the gemstone has at least one through hole. And a connecting portion that is inserted into the through-hole and connected to the accessory main body and swingably supports the jewelry on the accessory main body.

  Further, the present invention further forms a pair of wall portions facing each other to the accessory body, attaches the jewel between the pair of wall portions, and faces the through hole to each of the pair of wall portions. A pair is formed at a position where the wall portion and the through hole are connected by the connecting portion, and the center of gravity of the jewel is on the lower surface side of the jewel from the imaginary line connecting the pair of connecting portions. It is also characterized by being located in

In the decorative device of the present invention configured as described above, since the connecting portion is directly inserted into the through hole formed in the gemstone, the gemstone can be used even if the gem is pulled from the decorative device body. It is possible to prevent the expensive jewelry from being lost unexpectedly.
Further, since the connecting portion is inserted through the through hole of the jewel, a jewel frame that surrounds the periphery of the jewel and covers a part of the jewel is unnecessary. Accordingly, it is possible to see the entire cut of the jewel while minimizing the portion where the jewel is hidden by the connecting portion or the like, that is, to maximize the beauty of the jewel itself.

In addition, since the jewelry is supported by the connecting part so as to be swingable with respect to the accessory body, it can be sparkled by the movement of hands, fingers, etc., and in addition to the beauty of the jewelry itself, the beauty can be further increased. Can attract many people's eyes.
Furthermore, as described above, if the center of gravity of the jewel is positioned closer to the lower surface of the jewel than the imaginary line, the jewel swings around the imaginary line, but the lower surface of the jewel faces downward. Thus, it is supported between the pair of wall portions of the accessory main body. Therefore, regardless of the posture of the ornament body, it is possible to support the jewel so that the top surface of the highly decorative jewel is facing upward, and in combination with the jewel being swingable, It is possible to provide an ornament that can attract many people's eyes.

  1 to 3 show an embodiment in which the present invention is applied to a ring. That is, in the present embodiment, the accessory main body 1 is a ring shape having a size that can be fitted into a finger, and a recess 2 is formed in a part of the outer peripheral edge thereof. A jewel 3 is held by a pair of connecting portions 4 and is slidably mounted between a pair of wall portions 2A facing each other and facing each other. Note that the ornament main body 1 is formed of a noble metal such as platinum, gold, or silver, particularly when the ornament is a ring as in the present embodiment.

  Various kinds of jewels can be held as the jewel 3. For example, the jewel 3 shown in the figure is a diamond, and generally has an upper surface portion 3 </ b> A having a generally truncated cone shape that is cut and has a high decorative property, and the upper surface portion. The lower surface portion 3B having a substantially conical shape that tapers downward from 3A is provided, and the outer diameter of the boundary portion 3C between the upper surface portion 3A and the lower surface portion 3B is the maximum outer diameter of the gemstone 3.

In the jewel 3, a pair of through holes 3D penetrating from the upper surface portion 3A toward the lower surface portion 3B is formed by laser processing. That is, the pair of through holes 3D are formed so as to penetrate in a direction parallel to the center line O of the jewel 3 indicated by a one-dot chain line in the drawing.
The pair of through holes 3D are formed at positions where the center line O is sandwiched, that is, a virtual line M connecting the pair of through holes 3D is orthogonal to the center line O. Note that the imaginary line M is located on the upper surface 3 </ b> A side of the center of gravity of the jewel 3.

Each connecting portion 4 is formed in a substantially annular shape with a small diameter, and is inserted through the through hole 3 </ b> D of the jewel 3. In this inserted state, the pair of connecting portions 4 are arranged side by side on the imaginary line M so that a part thereof protrudes to the outer peripheral side of the jewel 3. Further, in this inserted state, each connecting portion 4 is arranged to open in a direction orthogonal to the imaginary line M and the center line O.
These connecting portions 4 are formed of the same precious metal as that of the ornament main body 1, more preferably hard platinum that is hard to be damaged.

On the other hand, the pair of wall portions 2 </ b> A of the accessory main body 1 are provided with connected portions 2 </ b> B that connect the pair of connecting portions 4. These connected portions 2B are formed in a small-diameter annular shape, and are joined to or integrally formed with the projecting end portions of the respective wall portions 2A by laser brazing. Thereby, a pair of to-be-connected parts 2B are each arrange | positioned so that it may protrude inside the recessed part 2. FIG.
The connected portions 2B are arranged so as to open in a direction parallel to the center line O, and are connected so as to form a chain by slightly loosely combining the connecting portions 4 and the mutual rings. ing. Thereby, the jewel 3 is suspended from the connecting portions 4 at both ends in the recess 2 in a state where the upper surface portion 3 </ b> A is directed to the outside of the accessory body 1, so that the jewel 3 is approximately around the imaginary line M. It is supported by the accessory main body 1 so as to be swingable.

In the ornament (ring) of the embodiment configured as described above, the connecting portion 4 is directly inserted into the through hole 3D formed in the jewel 3, and thus the jewel 3 is pulled from the ornament main body 1 or the like. However, it is possible to prevent the jewelry 3 from being detached from the ornament main body 1 and to prevent the expensive jewelry 3 from being accidentally lost.
Further, since the connecting portion 4 is inserted into the through hole 3D of the jewel 3, a jewel frame that surrounds the periphery of the jewel 3 and covers a part of the jewel 3 is unnecessary. Therefore, it is possible to see the entire cut of the jewel 3 by minimizing the portion where the jewel 3 is hidden by the connecting portion 4 or the like, that is, to maximize the beauty of the jewel 3 itself.

Further, since the jewel 3 is swingably attached to the accessory main body 1 by the pair of connecting portions 4, the jewel 3 emits a glitter while being swung by the movement of a hand or a finger. Therefore, in addition to the beauty of the jewel 3 itself, it is possible to further increase the beauty and attract more people around.
In particular, in the present embodiment, the center of gravity of the jewel 3 is positioned on the lower surface 3B side of the jewel 3 with respect to the imaginary line M, which is the center of swinging, so that the accessory 2 is placed so that the recess 2 faces upward. In this state, the upper surface portion 3A side of the jewel 3 is supported so as to be surely upward. Therefore, in such a state, since the gem 3 can be swung while the upper surface portion 3A having high decorativeness is always attracting attention as described above, the surrounding attention can be gathered more effectively. It becomes possible.

In the present embodiment, the through hole 3D of the jewel 3 is formed by laser processing. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the through hole 3D may be formed by cutting. Further, the through hole 3D of the jewel 3 is formed so as to penetrate in a direction parallel to the center line O. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the through hole 3D is formed along a plane orthogonal to the center line O. It does not matter if it is done.
In the case of this configuration, the connecting portion 4 inserted through the through hole 3D is arranged to open in a direction parallel to the center line O. Therefore, in this configuration, it is preferable to arrange the connected portions 2B provided on the pair of wall portions 2A so as to open in a direction orthogonal to the virtual line M and the center line O.

  Moreover, although the connection part 4 was formed in the substantially annular shape, it is not restricted to this, What is necessary is just to be formed so that it may penetrate at least the through-hole 3D of the jewelry 3, and the to-be-connected part 2B. That is, the connection part 4 may be formed in, for example, an S-shaped hook, or may be configured by connecting a plurality of annular objects in a chain shape.

Furthermore, although the said through-hole 3D and the connection part 4 penetrated to this were formed in a pair, it is not restricted to this, For example, only one may be formed and three or more are formed. It doesn't matter. Therefore, for example, a plurality of through holes 3D may be formed at symmetrical positions around the virtual line M, and the connecting portions 4 may be inserted through the plurality of through holes 3D.
Moreover, although this embodiment demonstrated the case where this invention was applied to a ring, of course, it is possible to apply this invention also to other types of ornaments, such as a necklace, a brooch, and a bracelet.

It is a side view showing one embodiment at the time of applying the present invention to a ring. It is an enlarged side view of the periphery of the recessed part 2 in embodiment shown in FIG. It is an enlarged plan view of the to-be-connected part 2B by the side of the jewel 3 and wall part 2A in embodiment shown in FIG.
