2. Description of the Related Art In general, casting involves pouring a single alloy into a mold to achieve a desired material. The predominant metal jewelry manufacturing method is mainly performed by the lost wax method among the castings described above, and jewelry is used as an extremely effective method because it has a high degree of freedom because jewelry is prosperous and depressed depending on the design. 2. Description of the Related Art In precious metal jewelry in recent years, there has been a tendency for diversification of colors along with diversification of designs. The colors include red, green, blue, black, violet, purple, etc., which are contained in the alloy containing the base metal, in addition to the intrinsic color of the noble metal. Precious metal jewelry items are manufactured by casting alloys having the above-mentioned various colors and tones as individual parts, and then integrating them by welding or the like.

However, it is more troublesome to weld or braze parts (or main bodies) of various colors / tones as the parts become smaller. Also, due to differences in physical properties (particularly melting point, expansion, shrinkage) of parts to be bonded, assembling these parts by welding not only requires a great deal of man-hours, but also some cases cannot be processed.

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been proposed in view of the above. In the lost wax method, a molten amount of a platinum alloy less than the volume of a mold is poured into the mold cavity to prevent the molten metal from entering the mold cavity.
The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing precious metal jewelry, characterized in that, after being adhered to a rule, a molten amount of a gold alloy is poured in an amount to fill the remainder of the mold volume.

[0005] As described above, the present invention is no different from the ordinary lost wax method except that a plurality of alloys are continuously poured into one mold. In the production method of the present invention,
First, a platinum alloy is cast. This platinum alloy is usually made of platinum (P
t) mixed with palladium (Pd) or the like,
It is extremely resistant to oxidation. Next, a gold alloy is cast.As described above, various colors and colors are proposed by mixing the base metals, so that a gold alloy having a color tone and a color selected in design is appropriately added. Choice·
Just use it. The molten metal of the above-mentioned gold alloy is the one in which pouring in the usual lost wax method is performed in exactly the same manner, and an excessive amount of molten metal is supplied to the spout in excess of the mold volume so as to prevent the occurrence of nests and sink marks. . According to the present invention, as described above, precious metal jewelry having a plurality of colors can be manufactured very easily.

[0006] However, contrary to the present invention, if the order of pouring the platinum alloy and the gold alloy is changed, the desired jewelry cannot be obtained. That is, since the melting point of the platinum alloy is about 1700 ° C., the molten metal is set at about 1950 ° C. On the other hand, since the melting point of the gold alloy is about 900 ° C., if the gold alloy is cast first, the platinum alloy is subsequently melted from the contact surface when the platinum alloy is cast. A part mixed with the alloy is formed. On the other hand, the same applies to the case where molten metal of two kinds of gold alloys having different colors and colors due to different compositions and blends is continuously poured into one mold, and the gold alloy cast earlier is cast later. Since the melting point and specific heat of the gold alloy to be inserted are extremely close to each other, the third gold alloy is formed by melting when the subsequent gold alloy is cast. Also, even if the above-mentioned problems are solved by selecting a gold alloy having a large difference in melting point, the gold alloy is easily oxidized because the base metal is blended, and its surface is selected and oxidized. The bonding strength with the alloy to be poured later is not sufficient. Furthermore, even if the above-mentioned problems are solved by performing casting in a non-oxidizing atmosphere (under an atmosphere of nitrogen, argon gas, or the like), the gold alloy to be poured first is not sufficient in volume of the mold. Therefore, casting defects such as nests may occur.

On the other hand, when a platinum alloy is initially cast as in the present invention, the platinum alloy has an extremely high melting point, so that it is not melted by a molten gold alloy which is poured later. In addition, since the platinum alloy is hardly oxidized even in an oxidizing atmosphere, the bonding (fusion) strength with a gold alloy to be poured later is extremely high. Furthermore, since the molten metal of the platinum alloy is known to be less likely to nest, poor casting is less likely to occur.

[0009] The present invention can also be used for design modeling. Originally, as jewelry, there is a tendency to prefer a special shape with a motif of a leaf or a dead branch to a geometric shape. In order to manufacture jewelry having such a special shape, the mold cavity of the lost wax naturally has a special shape. For such specially shaped mold cavities, the amount of molten platinum alloy less than the mold volume is irregularly introduced into the mold cavity by changing the pouring speed and pouring amount of the molten metal, or the position of the gate. Attach
When the molten metal is poured in such a manner, the molten metal scatters or flows downward in the cavity of the mold. At that time, the molten metal solidifies from a portion in contact with the mold, so that it is solidified at a very random position. Thereafter, a jewelry having a predetermined shape is produced by pouring a molten metal of the second alloy, but the design has an extremely complicated pattern shape. The state of adhesion of the molten metal into the mold cavity varies irregularly depending on the pouring speed and pouring amount of the molten metal, the position of the gate, and the like. Therefore, in other words, by changing the pouring conditions such as the pouring speed and pouring amount of the molten metal, or the position of the pouring gate, the state of irregular attachment of the molten metal into the mold cavity, that is, jewelry having a different pattern shape can be obtained. It can be easily manufactured. More specifically, when the pouring speed of the molten metal is increased, the molten metal of the platinum alloy has a high scattering rate, and tends to adhere to the inner wall of the cavity in the form of fine spots. The appearance may be too aesthetically unfavorable. In addition, when the pouring speed is reduced, the molten metal of the platinum alloy has a low scattering rate, and although a part is scattered and adheres in a spot-like manner, most of the molten metal is easily aggregated in a lump,
If it is too late, it may not fly at all. On the other hand, if the pouring amount is changed, of course, the ratio of the platinum alloy in the product changes, but this pouring amount also affects the scattering state of the molten metal. Further, even if the position of the sprue with respect to the cavity in the mold is changed (set appropriately), the scattering state of the molten metal, that is, the state of adhesion of the molten metal to the inner wall of the cavity in the mold changes. A change in the state of adhesion of the molten platinum alloy to the inner wall of the cavity in the mold means a change in the pattern of the surface of the product. Therefore, the present invention has a special effect that jewelry items having different patterns can be easily manufactured.
