The gist of the present invention is that the length and diameter are arbitrarily formed.

Third, a display surface of an image of a face or the like, which is composed of an aggregate of a large number of small holes, is formed on the surface of the ring main body, and the small holes are formed in an inverted conical shape. The gist of the present invention is to form the depth and diameter of the small hole arbitrarily according to the depth.

Fourthly, a display surface of an image of a face or the like, which is composed of an aggregate of a number of small holes, is formed on the surface of the ring main body, and the small holes are formed in an inverted conical shape. The gist of the invention is to determine the depth and diameter of a small hole corresponding to the density of each part so that the density of each part of a feature such as an eye or a nose of an image changes according to the angle. .

Fifth, a display surface of an image of a face or the like, which is composed of an aggregate of a large number of small holes, is formed on the surface of the ring main body, and the display surface of the image of the face is a dot from a photograph of the face. The density is read by a computer as a set, and based on the read data, a marking device is used to engrave and form a number of small holes with different depths and diameters on the ring body according to the density. It is the gist.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, the display surface of the image of the face is constituted by a collection of a number of small holes stamped on the ring main body, so that the irregularities formed on the surface of the ring main body by the stamping are formed. Creates a shadow. This shading follows the movement of the finger or hand, because the shading is formed in an inverted conical shape, and when the viewing angle with respect to the ring surface changes, the shading of the shading changes accordingly. The display surface changes and the decorativeness increases.

In addition, since an image of a face or the like is displayed by directly engraving the surface of the ring main body, the appearance of the material is not impaired.

According to the present invention, in addition to the above-described operation, by arbitrarily forming the depth and the diameter of the small hole, a delicate contrast can be obtained by a combination of small holes having different depths and diameters. An image having a color is formed. Furthermore, since the small holes are formed in an inverted conical shape, the contrast changes as the viewing angle changes. Therefore, you can enjoy the shading change that follows the movement of your hands and fingers as an accessory.

[Embodiment of the invention]

 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of the ring of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a front view of the same main part, and FIG. 3 is a front view of the same main part when the visual angle is changed. In addition, a display surface 3 of an image 2 such as a face of an owner or a person close to the owner is formed on the surface of a ring body 1 made of metal as a material. In the illustrated example, the ring body 1 has an octagonal shape, and the display surface 3 is formed on one of the octagons. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the display surface 3 may have another polygonal shape. Alternatively, an arbitrary number of polygonal surfaces can be used as the display surface 3.

The display surface 3 is composed of a collection of a large number of inverted conical small holes 4 formed by engraving on the ring main body 1 as shown in the cross-sectional plan view of FIG. Is determined in accordance with the shadow of the image 2 and its shading. In this case, in FIG. 2, parts such as the head, eyes, mouth, and upper body are formed by the dark part 2a, parts such as the cheeks and forehead of the face are formed by the light part 2b, and a blank part around the face is formed. The intermediate portion 2c which is an intermediate tone is formed, and the dark portion 2a, the light portion 2b, and the intermediate portion 2c are formed so that the depth and diameter of the small hole 4 are different.

The small hole 4 has an inverted conical shape as described above, and is formed so that its diameter is proportional to the depth as shown in FIG. Thus, the visible area of the inner surface of the small hole 4 and the amount of reflection change depending on the viewing angle with respect to the small hole 4, and the dark portion 2a, the light portion 2b, and the intermediate portion 2c are switched. .

In the embodiment of the present invention, for example, a state in which the face image 2 is displayed in the arrangement of the dark part 2a, the light part 2b, and the intermediate part 2c shown in FIG. 2 is set as a normal display state. This is a display state when the display surface 3 is viewed from an oblique angle with respect to the wheel main body 1. The arrangement of the dark part 2a, the light part 2b, and the intermediate part 2c shown in FIG. 3 is replaced with the state of FIG. The display state was obtained when the surface 3 was viewed from the front at an angle of 90 degrees.

Next, a method of forming the display surface 3 by an aggregate of the small holes 4 will be described. For example, as shown in FIG. 5, the density of each part is determined from a photograph of the face of the owner of the ring or the like. A reading device 5 for reading as a set of dots is connected to an input side of a control device 6 such as a computer, and a marking device 7 is connected to an output side of the control device 6. The marking device 7 is provided with a cutting blade 7a having a conical tip as shown in FIG. 6, for example.

Then, from a photograph of a face or the like, the reading device 5 reads the density of each part as a set of dots, stores the data in a storage unit of a control device 6 such as a computer, and stores the data in the control device. 6 to the marking device 7, the cutting depth of the cutting blade 7a is determined according to the density of each read dot, and the small hole 4 is cut to the depth applicable to the density. Thus, the small hole 4 having a large cutting depth is formed to have a large diameter.

A large number of small holes 4 having different cutting depths and diameters are formed to form a face display surface 3 which is expressed by a delicate contrast of light and shade with an aggregate of the small holes 4. Further, the face display surface 3 represented by shading with the aggregate of the small holes 4 has a small cutting depth and a small diameter such that the viewing angle with respect to the ring main body 1 changes to a negative and a positive state. An aggregate of holes 4 is provided.
