Description

  The present invention relates to a decorative article made of a precious metal and a jewel for forming a decorative part of the decorative article such as a pendant, an earring, and a ring.

  Conventionally, the decorative article is fitted into a base unit whose surface is plated with a noble metal, and a hole or a recess arranged in a region other than the plating region in the base unit, and around the hole or the recess. The jewel is fixed by a plurality of protrusions positioned, and the manufacturing process includes polishing the jewel in a region other than the hole or the concave portion before fitting and fixing the jewel. In addition, no pre-plating was performed, and after the desorption, plating with a noble metal was performed on the base surface forming the foundation on which no jewels were placed.

  However, in the case of a conventional ornament based on such a processing method, the gloss of the region surrounded by the hole or recess in the base surface is not sufficient, and the gem and the base are in the hole or recess. Since the plating portion is not plated at all at the joint portion where the surfaces are fitted together, the disadvantage that the gloss itself cannot be obtained cannot be avoided.

  However, no technical means has been proposed for correcting the conventional processing method having the above-mentioned drawbacks.

  In view of the state of the prior art as described above, the present invention has a configuration of a decorative product that can provide sufficient reflected light and a decorative effect in a decorative product constituted by a jewel and a base surface that forms a base. The issue is to provide.

  In order to solve the above problems, the basic configuration of the present invention is fitted to a base unit whose surface is plated with a noble metal, and a hole or a recess arranged in a region other than the plating region in the base unit, and A decorative article made of jewels fastened by a plurality of protrusions located around the hole or recess, wherein the surface of the base surface is in a polished state and is above the polished surface. And it consists of the ornament based on the specular plating being formed in the area | region below the plating layer by the said noble metal, and the area | region which is contacting the jewel in a hole or a recessed part.

Based on the basic configuration, in the present invention,
(1) By selecting the combination of the metal that constitutes the mirror surface plating and the noble metal plating, sufficient gloss is obtained on the ground surface as a base by the superposition of the polished surface on the base surface and the mirror surface plating and the noble metal plating. Accordingly, it is possible to realize gloss with various color tones.
(2) In the conventional ornamental structure, in order to cover the insufficiency of plating, noble metal had to be selected as the base surface to form the foundation, but mirrored plating was adopted for the polished surface. In the case of the present invention, it is not always necessary to use a precious metal as a base surface as a base, and even a normal metal or even a plastic can be applied. This is extremely advantageous in terms of economic costs.
(3) Since two layers of plating are adopted, the upper noble metal plating layer can be set thinner than the conventional configuration, and the lower mirror surface plating for exhibiting the mirror effect The material forming the metal does not necessarily need to be a noble metal, and even non-noble metals such as aluminum, iron, nickel, and chromium can be applied. As a result, the cost required for the plating material can be reduced. can do.

  Hereinafter, a process for realizing the configuration of the decorative product of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2 (FIG. 1 shows a case where the base surface 1 has a hole 11. FIG. 2 shows a case where the base surface 1 has a recess 11).

  In the present invention, before fitting the jewel 2 into the hole or recess 11 of the base surface 1 as a base, as shown in FIG. 1 (a) or FIG. 2 (a), a chisel 5 or the like is used. The surface of the base surface 1 is smoothed by polishing at least the region other than the holes or the recesses 11, and then, as shown in FIG. 1B or FIG. Make the first mirror plating.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 1 or FIG. 2, although the inclined surface for fitting the jewel 2 is formed in the hole or recessed part 11, in FIG.1 (b) or FIG. As shown in (b), mirror plating is performed not only on the base surface 1 between the holes or the recesses 11 but also on the inclined surface and further on the bottom of the recesses 11.

  After the specular plating, as shown in FIG. 1 (c) or FIG. 2 (c), the jewel 2 is fitted into the hole or the recess 11, and then the protrusion is pressed against the jewel 2 side ( Next, as shown in FIG. 1 (d) or FIG. 2 (d), a finishing process is performed on a region other than the region on which the jewel 2 is placed on the base surface 1 serving as a base. As a result, plating with a precious metal will be performed.

  Before performing the first specular plating, the surface of the base surface 1 that forms the base is smoothed by polishing at least the surface of the region other than the holes or the recesses 11, so that the plating surface by the specular plating surface 31 and the finished noble metal is obtained. As a result, the luster based on the plating can be remarkably enhanced.

  The polishing is usually performed using a polishing apparatus such as a chisel.

  Thus, when smoothing the base surface 1 that forms the base by polishing, not only the flat shape as a whole but the region surrounded by these other than the holes or the recesses 11 is a raised shape or a depressed shape as a whole. Can be selected and different glosses can be achieved by light scattering based on the respective surface conditions.

  In the mirror plating, as shown in FIG. 1 (b) or FIG. 2 (b), the inclined surface of the hole or recess 11, the bottom of the recess 11, and the plating surface both on the region other than the hole or recess 11 are shown. 31. However, when the jewel 2 is later fitted into the hole or the recess 11 by the formation of the inclined surface and further the plating surface 31 at the bottom, most of the jewel 2 is transparent (however, ruby, Since it may be colored and transparent, such as sapphire, it is possible to exhibit the gloss of the plating surface by mirror plating by the light transmitted through the jewel.

  Thus, as pointed out in the effect (1) of the invention, by the polishing and mirror plating, in the present invention, a sufficient gloss can be obtained on the base surface serving as the base surface 1.

  The pigment for performing the mirror plating does not necessarily need to be a noble metal such as rhodium, gold, silver, or platinum, and as pointed out in the effect (3) of the invention, aluminum and iron used for normal mirror printing. It is also possible to use non-noble metals such as nickel and chromium, and the degree of gloss can be adjusted by selecting the particle size of the pigment.

  Furthermore, it is possible to form a color mirror surface by adding not only metal pigments but also color pigments, specifically, pigment red (red), pigment yellow (yellow), methylene blue (blue), and the like. is there.

As shown in FIG. 1 (c) or FIG. 2 (c), the plating with the noble metal that is the finishing plating is limited to a region other than the region on which the jewel 2 is placed on the base surface 1, but the mirror plating is performed. It is naturally possible to select the same noble metal for both plating and noble metal plating, and to obtain a gloss with a uniform color as a whole, and such selection is often performed.
However, when metals of different colors are selected for both, as pointed out in the effect (1) of the invention, the jewel 2 out of the gloss by the specular plating on the inclined surface of the hole or recess 11 and the base surface 1 It is also possible to enjoy the decorative effect due to the contrast in color with the luster of the plating by the noble metal in the area other than the area where it is placed.

Since mirror plating has already been performed by mirror plating, as pointed out in the effect (2) of the invention, it is not always necessary to use a precious metal as a base material as a base unit for forming the base, as in the prior art. Further, non-noble metals such as aluminum and plastics can also be used as materials.
However, in the case of a material such as iron that has high rigidity and is difficult to be deformed, it is preferable that the protrusions are set to be slightly narrower than those of noble metal and copper so as to be easily deformed.

  On the other hand, if the material of the base unit that forms the base is plastic, engineer plastic with sufficient rigidity, specifically, polyamide resin, polycarbonate resin, polyarate resin, polyamideimide resin (above, thermoplastic resin) ), A polyimide resin, and a meta-aramid resin (above, non-thermoplastic resin).

  In particular, in the process of attaching the jewel 2, it is indispensable that the jewel 2 is stuck (clamped) while being pressed from the surroundings after heating to deform the protrusion 4. A thermoplastic plastic is more suitable than a thermosetting plastic.

  In the following, description will be made in accordance with examples.

  The first embodiment is characterized in that the inclined portion of the hole 11 or the inclined portion and the bottom portion of the concave portion 11 have a polished surface.

  By having the polished surface at the inclined surface and the bottom portion, the gloss based on the mirror surface plating of the inclined surface and the bottom portion through the transparent jewel 2 can be made even more satisfactory.

  As shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B, the second embodiment is characterized in that the distance between adjacent jewels 2 is equal to each other.

  Thus, by making the adjacent jewels 2 equidistant, the gloss of the entire decorative article can be made uniform.

  As shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B, the third embodiment is characterized in that the number of projections 4 to which the jewel 2 is fixed is three or more (FIGS. 3A and 3B). Are respectively 3 and 4 cases).

  In the conventional ornament, the jewelry 2 is fixed by the two protrusions 4, but in Example 3, the number of the protrusions 4 is three or more.

  When the number of the protrusions 4 is increased, the area per protrusion 4 necessary for fixing is reduced to partially overlap the gemstone 2 and the total of the adjacent protrusion 4 parts. It is possible to set the area as small as possible, and it is also possible to increase the surface area of the jewel 2 that is not covered by the protrusions 4.

  Thus, when the relative ratio of the surface area of the protrusion 4 is set to be small, the overall reflectance of the decorative article can be further increased.

  In addition, it is possible to realize clearly firm attachment by using three or more attachments rather than the conventional attachment by the two protrusions 4.

  The present invention can be used in the field of all decorative products such as pendants, earrings, rings and brooches.
