Description

The present invention provides wearability when wearing jewelry such as rings and bracelets and watches (hereinafter referred to as “jewelry” including jewelry and watches, hereinafter simply referred to as “jewelry”). More particularly, the present invention relates to a member having a function of preventing rotation of a ring and a function of adjusting the size of a ring and a finger. The present invention also relates to a method for adjusting the attachment of jewelry using the adjustment member.

A ring which is one of jewelry is composed of a ring into which a finger is inserted, a pedestal attached to the ring, and a jewel fixed to the pedestal. In addition, there are some which are configured only by a ring into which a finger is inserted. In addition, some have small gems embedded in the ring and others have a design on the surface of the ring. In general, when selecting a ring, it is desirable to select the most appropriate ring size at the ring wearing position. However, if the thickness of the finger joint is larger than the thickness of the ring wearing position, the ring is passed through the joint part. In many cases, a ring having a size larger than the most appropriate ring size at the wearing position is selected. For example, as shown in FIG. 6, the most suitable ring size at the ring wearing position 6 is L2, but the metacarpophalangeal joint portion 7 is L1, so that the actually selected ring 200 is larger than the most appropriate ring size. In many cases, a size larger by ΔL is selected. Therefore, since the thickness of the ring is larger than the thickness of the finger at the ring wearing position, the ring moves left and right and up and down, and sometimes the jewelry part rotates to the palm side, which causes the wearer to feel uncomfortable. . In addition, when the most appropriate ring size is selected at the ring wearing position, the ring diameter is smaller than the diameter of the metacarpophalangeal joint part, so that the ring is forcibly removed and the wearer is in pain. Had. Furthermore, since the ring is usually in contact with the skin, the back surface of the ring gradually deteriorates due to the sweat from the body, the adhesion of oil, old skin, etc., resulting in a loss of gloss and discoloration.

Conventionally, as means for solving such a problem, for example, Patent Document 1 proposes to provide a projecting portion made of an elastic body on the inner peripheral surface of a ring for processing the ring. Further, for example, in Patent Document 2, a ring-shaped ring spacer is inserted between a ring and a finger so that the problem is solved by inserting the ring adjustment member without processing the ring. It has been proposed to prevent the rotation. Patent Document 3 proposes to apply a thin elastic body lining or a file-like small protrusion to the finger contact surface as means for improving the sliding performance. Patent Document 4 proposes that a groove can be formed in the ring adjusting member, and that the material forming the member can be held in an adapted posture by using an elastic material such as rubber or a synthetic resin. In Patent Document 5, it is proposed to improve the detachability by providing a fitting groove. Moreover, in patent document 6, in order to improve mounting | wearing property, using a flexible elastic body for a pad is proposed. In Patent Document 7, it is proposed that the ring adjusting member is formed of silicon rubber from the viewpoints of improvement in wearability, appearance, and safety. Furthermore, as a means for absorbing human sweat when a decorative article or the like is worn, for example, Patent Document 8 uses a member having a water absorption property such as a polymer material on the surface of the wristwatch band that contacts the skin. It has been proposed.
Japanese Utility Model Publication 62-177309 (Claim 1, FIG. 3) Japanese Utility Model Publication 62-21913 (Fig. 3) 56-2811 (Claim 2) ACT 6-7514 (paragraph 0013) Japanese Utility Model Publication 57-85216 (Fig. 2) JP-A-11-244016 (Claim 2, paragraph 0031, FIG. 1) Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 5-9314 (Claim 1, paragraph 0009, FIG. 1) JP-A-6-78810 (Claim 1, FIG. 3)

However, when the adjusting member such as a spring is embedded in the means for processing the ring, for example, the ring must be processed in advance, and there remains a problem that options at the time of purchase are limited. In addition, in terms of means that can be processed after purchase, the aesthetics are given priority in expensive rings that use precious metals such as gold, platinum, and silver as the material of the ring, so the buyer wants to avoid post-processing. Most cases.

Further, in the means for inserting the ring adjustment member, according to the means of Patent Document 2, the ring adjustment member is larger than the ring. The means of Patent Document 3 is the same because the fitting body is mounted on the outer surface of the ring. The means of Patent Document 4 is the same because the ring is fixed by fitting the ring into the guide groove. Further, according to the means of Patent Document 5, although it is the same means as Patent Document 4, a soft transparent synthetic resin is used, and some contrivance can be seen with respect to aesthetics. However, the diameter of the ring is not necessarily configured in a linear shape, and it is difficult to fit the curved shape according to the means of Patent Document 5. There is no disclosure of an adjustment mechanism for the thickness of the ring adjustment member. Further, according to the means of Patent Document 6, since the width of the ring adjustment member is formed to be narrower than the width of the finger, it is not noticeable when viewed from the back of the hand, but since it has an elongated shape, it is viewed from the palm side. There is a problem that the ring adjustment member is conspicuous and lacks aesthetics when worn. Moreover, since the shape is inserted near the base of the finger, there is a problem that it is bothersome and annoying in daily life. Furthermore, with regard to the thickness of the ring adjustment member, a flexible and elastic material is used to improve wearability, and some adjustment is possible, but basically it is suitable for the size of each person's finger. It is necessary to process the ring adjusting member to a different thickness, or to align the ring adjusting members having different dimensions and shapes. Furthermore, according to the means of Patent Document 7, aesthetics and wearability are enhanced by using colorless and transparent silicon rubber. However, since the ring adjustment member is fixed to the ring by using the hook portion, there is a problem that the unevenness of the hook portion is conspicuous and lacks aesthetic appearance, and it is difficult to attach the ring adjustment member along the ring to the curved ring. It is. Moreover, in order to raise a feeling of mounting, it is necessary to process suitably according to a fitting condition. Furthermore, since the ring adjustment member is attached to only a part of the ring, there is a problem that when viewed from the side, the part appears to float and gives an unnatural impression.

Further, in the technical means relating to the protective member, according to the means of Patent Document 8, a member having water absorption is fixed to a watch band made of stainless steel, and the member having water absorption absorbs sweat. Some ideas are available to prevent discomfort. However, there is no knowledge about the surface state of the watch band, and there is no description or suggestion regarding the idea of improving the wearability of the watch (decorative article) using a member having water absorption. According to this means, since a watch band is constructed by adhering a water-absorbing member to each block band piece, when the surface of the watch band deteriorates, the watch band itself or a deteriorated part It is necessary to replace the block band piece. For this reason, there is a problem that this means cannot be applied to jewelry that is formed inseparably from a part having a high decorative value and a skin contact surface.

This invention is made | formed in view of the problem which such a prior art has, and the place made into the subject is providing the mounting adjustment member of the jewelry which does not impair aesthetics. Moreover, it is providing the jewelry mounting adjustment member with high mounting property. Furthermore, it is providing the protection member which prevents the contamination of the skin contact surface (back surface) of jewelry, and deterioration. In particular, the present invention is to provide a ring mounting adjustment member that has a function of preventing rotation in a ring and a function of adjusting the size of a ring and a finger, and also has a protective function that prevents deterioration of the skin contact surface of the ring. . Moreover, this invention is providing the mounting | wearing adjustment method of the jewelry using the said adjustment member.

As a result of intensive studies to achieve the above-mentioned problems, the present inventor has a deformable member in a part of the jewelry attachment adjusting member, for example, using a water-absorbing polymer used as a diaper or a sanitary product, It has been found that the above problem can be achieved by providing a thickness adjusting mechanism by absorption, and the present invention has been completed. That is, according to the present invention, the following jewelry attachment adjusting member is provided. “Jewelry wearing adjustment member” means an adjustment tool for adjusting the wearability (adhesion) when wearing jewelry, for example, ring stopper, stopper, pad, spacer pointing. Further, in the present specification, “water-absorbing polymer” includes water-absorbing polymers, superabsorbent polymers, and superabsorbent polymers. Furthermore, “jewelry” in this specification includes a wristwatch.

According to the present invention, the jewelry mounting adjustment member is inserted into a gap between the jewelry and the body generated when the jewelry is mounted on the body, and the jewelry mounting adjustment member has a thickness that varies in thickness. An adjustment layer, and part or all of the thickness adjustment layer is made of the liquid absorber, and the skin contact surface of the jewelry attachment adjustment member has water permeability, and the liquid absorber absorbs liquid when attached. A possible jewelry attachment adjustment member is provided.

According to this, it is possible to fill the gap between the jewelry and the body generated when the jewelry is worn on the body, and to improve the wearability of the jewelry.

Therefore, according to the present invention, by using the above-described mounting adjustment member, the jewelry mounting having a liquid absorber capable of absorbing liquid when mounted in the gap formed between the jewelry and the body when the jewelry is mounted on the body. A treasure characterized by inserting an adjustment member, allowing the liquid absorber to absorb liquid through a skin contact surface, and adjusting the wearability of the jewelry by changing the thickness of the jewelry attachment adjustment member. It is also a method for adjusting the attachment.

The jewelry mounting / adjusting member provided in the present invention can be freely designed in the dimension in the width direction, and has a high degree of freedom in the thickness direction since the thickness is variable. For this reason, it can be used for various jewelry requiring wearability without particular limitation. In particular, according to the present invention, since the degree of freedom with respect to the dimensions of the jewelry attachment adjusting member is high, the width of the jewelry attachment adjusting member can be made smaller than the width of the jewelry. For this reason, the jewelry attachment adjustment member does not stand out at the time of attachment, and therefore, it is possible to provide a jewelry attachment adjustment member excellent in design. In addition, since it has elasticity and the wall thickness is variable, it has a high follow-up property to the curved shape. For this reason, this invention is effective with respect to the jewelry which exhibits a cyclic | annular form or an arc shape, and is extremely effective in the viewpoint of rotation prevention and size adjustment especially with respect to jewelry which is easy to rotate like a ring.

In addition, since the jewelry attachment adjustment member is inserted between the jewelry and the body as in the present invention, the jewelry does not come into direct contact with the body. It is possible to prevent contamination, deterioration, etc. on the back side of the ornament. Therefore, the present invention is suitable for wearing a wristwatch, a bracelet or a ring on sports or hot summer days. Furthermore, since the jewelry is not in direct contact with the body, a person who has a metal allergy or a person who is easily irritated can wear a wristwatch, a bracelet, or a ring.

Further, by using a liquid absorber for a part or all of the thickness adjusting layer, a volume increase of several to several tens of times the original volume can be expected while having elasticity, and thus excellent adhesion can be expected. Moreover, since the liquid absorber adsorbs sweat or the like coming out of the body, it is excellent from the viewpoint of contamination and deterioration of the skin contact surface (back surface) of the jewelry.

Here, the “liquid absorber” refers to a material having water absorption properties such as a polymer material and an inorganic material.

Among the liquid absorbers, fiber aggregates and water-absorbing polymers have a high degree of design freedom due to their composition, shape, film thickness, etc., and are excellent in processability. It can be said that it is more preferable at the point which can provide the jewelry installation adjustment member of. The external force in this case refers to moisture, and specifically refers to sweat, humidity, and the like emitted from the body, and this external force includes a case where moisture is actively sprayed.

This characteristic of being thin and fine-tuning is particularly effective for a ring. In other words, the size of the finger is constantly changing due to swelling, etc., and when purchasing a ring, there are situations in which it must be made larger than the appropriate size at the ring wearing position, In most cases, the ring size is not always appropriate. This is because the conventional jewelery mounting adjustment member is mostly avoided from the viewpoint of aesthetics because the stopper and the adjustment member main body protrude outside the ring and the mounting state is conspicuous. In addition, it can be said that the fiber assembly and the water-absorbing polymer are preferable from the viewpoint of safety because they are used daily as diapers and sanitary products.

In addition, the liquid absorber may be formed of a material that exhibits absorptivity, or a part of the liquid absorber may be replaced with another material in order to maintain the shape and elasticity. Also, in order to adjust the amount of change in the thickness adjusting layer, two or more liquid absorbers having different water absorption rates may be combined, or may be combined with a polymer material, an inorganic material, or the like not intended for liquid absorption. Good.

The thickness adjusting layer preferably has anisotropy. The anisotropy here means that the expansion coefficient differs for each surface direction when the liquid is absorbed and expands. By providing anisotropy, it is possible to effectively expand the thickness direction while suppressing the thickness adjusting layer from expanding in the width direction.

The anisotropy of the thickness adjusting layer can be caused by selecting the physical properties and materials of the liquid absorber and the combination thereof. Further, as will be described later, it can be generated by compressing the thickness adjusting layer in a state before the jewelry mounting adjusting member is inserted.

Moreover, according to this invention, a jewelry installation adjustment member has a jewelry contact layer and a skin contact layer, and the thickness adjustment layer may be pinched | interposed into the jewelry contact layer and the skin contact layer. It is because it is possible to provide a more functional and rational jewelry attachment adjusting member by being composed of multiple layers. In addition, a layered structure can be used to form a jewelery attachment adjusting member having a thin layer thickness as a whole while giving each layer a function. In this case, in addition to processing the liquid absorber into a sheet shape, the liquid absorber may be processed into a film shape by applying to other members.

As an example in which each layer has a function, for example, a part or all of the jewelery contact layer or a part or all of the jewelery contact surface may be made sticky. Thereby, since the jewelry attachment adjusting member can be fixed to the jewelry, it is possible to prevent the jewelry attachment adjusting member from being displaced or detached from the jewelry when the ring is attached. Further, with respect to the skin contact layer, it is possible to wear for a long time by using a material having a good touch or a highly safe material for a part or all of the skin contact layer.

Here, when an adhesive is used in order to provide adhesiveness, it is preferable to use an adhesive that can be easily detached from the jewelry. If firmly fixed, handling becomes inconvenient, and a part of the pressure-sensitive adhesive adheres to the back of the jewelry, causing dirt and deterioration. Moreover, it is desirable that the adhesive can be attached / detached a plurality of times because the jewelry attachment adjusting member can be used repeatedly. In addition to the adhesive, an adhesive tape (including a double-sided tape) may be attached as a means for increasing the adhesiveness.

The skin contact layer preferably has a higher water permeability than the jewelry contact layer. This is because the water retention of the thickness adjusting layer can be increased, and efficient operation of moisture as a whole becomes possible. Specifically, moisture can be efficiently transferred to the liquid absorber by increasing the water permeability of the skin contact layer, and moisture can be transferred to the jewelry side by reducing the water permeability of the jewelry contact layer. This is because transmission can be prevented. Moreover, according to this, there also exists an advantage which can prevent the stain | pollution | contamination and deterioration of the back surface of jewelry. Furthermore, when an adhesive is used for a part of the jewelery contact layer, there is an advantage that it is possible to prevent the adhesiveness from being lowered due to moisture adhering to the adhesive.

According to the present invention, the thickness adjustment layer of the jewelry attachment adjusting member may be compressed at least before being inserted into the gap between the jewelry and the body.

According to this, by attaching to a jewelry in the compressed state where the air is released, it becomes easy to insert into the gap, and the handling property is improved. In addition, by using the volume change that returns from the compressed state to the steady state as an adjustment function, it is possible to efficiently adjust the wall thickness, thereby making it possible to make the jewelry attachment adjustment member thinner.

Moreover, according to this invention, the jewelry installation adjustment member may be provided with the base | substrate which has elasticity. In this case, it is preferable that the substrate is harder than the thickness adjusting layer or the like.

According to this, when the thickness adjusting layer or the like is soft, it is possible to improve the handling property when the jewelry is attached to the jewelry by holding the thickness adjusting layer or the like on a substrate harder than the thickness adjusting layer or the like. it can. In addition, when the thickness adjusting layer is a liquid absorber, it becomes a gel when it contains moisture. However, it is possible to make the deformation anisotropic by holding the liquid absorber on the substrate. Moreover, when a jewelry attachment adjustment member is comprised from several layers, there also exists an advantage that it becomes easy to laminate | stack by having a base | substrate. Further, when the jewelery has an annular shape or an arc shape, further improvement in handling properties when the jewelery is attached to the jewelery can be expected by matching the shape of the jewelery attachment adjusting member with the curvature of the jewelery. In this case, it is desirable that the substrate has elasticity. Because it has elasticity, it can be pasted in a state that conforms to the shape of the jewelry, and it can flexibly respond to jewelry that does not match the shape of the body, annular jewelry that is not straight, or arc-shaped jewelry. This is because the sex can be enhanced .

Furthermore, when the jewelry attachment adjusting member has a liquid absorber, the substrate is at least orthogonal to the perpendicular connecting the jewelry contact surface and the skin contact surface of the jewelry attachment adjusting member, and the liquid absorber It is preferable to arrange | position along the both sides | surfaces of the liquid absorber along a longitudinal direction (when a jewelry is a ring, along a ring). This is because the expansion of the liquid absorber in the width direction can be suppressed by sandwiching the liquid absorber from both sides by the base. Therefore, in order to suppress expansion, it is arranged so as to surround the thickness adjustment layer along the side surface of the thickness adjustment layer that is perpendicular to the perpendicular line connecting the jewelry contact surface and the skin contact surface. Is more preferable. Furthermore, in order to control the deformation of the liquid absorber, it is more preferable to provide the base also between the thickness adjusting layer and the jewelry contact surface.

Moreover, according to this invention, the foam may be arrange | positioned on the surface of the liquid absorber or the surface of the skin contact layer. Thereby, it can provide the jewelry attachment adjustment member provided with the outstanding adhesiveness by having a liquid absorber, providing the touch of a foam favorable.

From such a point of view, as another configuration, a part or all of the thickness adjusting layer may be a mixed layer of a liquid absorber and a foam exhibiting a high absorbability such as a water-absorbing polymer. For example, when the tip of the thickness adjusting layer has an uneven shape, the foam has a good touch by forming a convex part, and the liquid absorber expands, so that the entire thickness adjusting layer has high adhesion Because it can be expected.

Moreover, according to this invention, you may give adhesiveness to a part or all of a skin contact layer. Thereby, a body and a jewelry installation adjustment member can be fixed reliably. The pressure-sensitive adhesive used here is preferably one that is familiar with the skin, harmless, and has good chemical resistance. For example, those used for medical tapes are suitable.

ADVANTAGE OF THE INVENTION According to this invention, the mounting | wearing adjustment member of jewelry with high mounting property can be provided, without impairing aesthetics. Moreover, according to this invention, the protection member which prevents the dirt and deterioration of the skin contact surface (back surface) of jewelry can be provided. In particular, according to the present invention, the ring has a rotation prevention function and a size adjustment function between the ring and the finger, has a good appearance when worn, can be easily attached and detached, and stains and deterioration of the skin contact surface of the ring. A ring mounting adjustment member having a protective function to prevent can be provided. Moreover, according to this invention, the mounting adjustment method of the jewelry using the said adjustment member can be provided.

Hereinafter, the best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments, and those skilled in the art can be used without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Based on this general knowledge, it should be understood that modifications and improvements as appropriate to the following embodiments also fall within the scope of the present invention.

FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view schematically showing the first embodiment of the jewelry attachment adjusting member of the present invention, and (a) shows a state before attachment. The jewelry attachment adjusting member 100 of the present embodiment includes a thickness adjusting layer 1, a base 2 disposed so as to surround the thickness adjusting layer 1, and an adhesive layer 3 applied to the jewelry contact surface of the base 2. The skin contact layer 4 is in contact with the thickness adjusting layer, and the skin contact layer 4 is formed with a plurality of fine communication holes 5 in order to transmit moisture to the liquid absorber contained in the thickness adjusting layer.

Here, the thickness of the thickness adjusting layer 1 is determined by the relationship between the thickness of the entire jewelry attachment adjusting member and the gap formed between the jewelry and the body. As an example of thickness, when a jewelry attachment adjusting member is attached to the ring and the ring is worn at the ring wearing position, the gap is equal to or less than the diameter difference of the ring size 3 in the dimension before expansion. It is only necessary that the thickness adjustment layer expands in the thickness direction to a thickness equal to or greater than the gap. In addition, the thickness adjusting layer does not necessarily have the same thickness as the side substrate, and when the expansion in the thickness direction is larger than the side substrate thickness, the dimension before expansion is smaller than the side substrate thickness. It's okay. Therefore, the space surrounded by the base 2 and the skin contact layer 4 does not have to be completely filled with the thickness adjusting layer or the liquid absorber. In addition, when importance is attached to the appearance, by selecting a highly elastic material for the substrate, the gap may be made less than the size difference of size 1 so as to be inconspicuous. On the contrary, by coloring the base and designing the gap so that the difference in diameter is equal to or larger than the ring size No. 3, it may be noticeable and casual.

From such a viewpoint, a water-absorbing polymer can be applied to the liquid absorber as a material exhibiting absorptivity, and a high water-absorbing polymer is particularly preferable. In particular, when mounting on the back of a bracelet or wristwatch, it is preferable to select a material having a high water absorption rate. According to this, since the adhesion is increased and at the same time high sweat absorption can be expected, a comfortable wearing feeling can be maintained for a long time.

In general, a superabsorbent polymer can absorb and retain water several hundred times its own weight with respect to pure water, but it will decrease to several tens of times with respect to an aqueous solution containing salts such as sweat. It is known. Therefore, according to the present invention, a water-absorbing polymer having high water absorption with respect to an electrolyte liquid such as physiological saline is suitable. Examples of the water-absorbing polymer having a high water-absorbing property with respect to the electrolyte liquid include a water-absorbing polymer having methacrylic acid as a monomer. Further, according to the present invention, the water absorption may be enhanced by combining two or more water-absorbing polymers having different water absorption mechanisms with respect to an aqueous solution containing salts such as sweat. Examples of combinations of water-absorbing polymers having different water absorption mechanisms include a combination of a three-dimensional partially crosslinked product of a water-soluble polymer electrolyte and a three-dimensional partially crosslinked product of a non-electrolyte water-soluble polymer.

Moreover, according to the present Example, although the base | substrate 2 serves as the jewelry contact layer, the base | substrate 2 and the jewelry contact layer may be comprised by the separate member. By using a separate configuration, the jewelery contact layer uses a highly elastic material to enhance adhesion, while the substrate disposed on both sides of the liquid absorber or part thereof, In order to efficiently expand the liquid absorber in the thickness direction, it is possible to use a material having a hardness higher than that of the jewelry contact layer, that is, a material that is less likely to be deformed than the jewelry contact layer.

The substrate 2 may be merely placed on the thickness adjusting layer 1, but the substrate 2 surrounds the periphery of the thickness adjusting layer 1 as shown in FIG. It is possible to expand only in the layer direction, that is, the thickness adjusting layer 1 can have anisotropy.

Although there is no restriction | limiting in particular as a material of the base | substrate 2, For example, a silicone rubber is mentioned. Since silicon rubber has flexibility, it has good adhesion to the inner peripheral surface of the ring and is less likely to be displaced from the inner peripheral surface of the ring. Silicon rubber is also familiar with the skin, is harmless and has good chemical resistance. Therefore, even if it is worn for a long time, there is no sense of incongruity and there is no worry of causing rough skin. Furthermore, since silicon rubber can be easily cut off with a sharp blade or the like, fine adjustment is possible, and it can be applied to various jewelry.

The adhesive layer 3 may be an adhesive or a double-sided tape as long as it has appropriate tackiness. However, when it is worn for a long time or used under high humidity, it is preferable to have excellent water resistance. The adhesive may be acrylic or rubber, but for example, those used as medical tapes are suitable from the viewpoint of water resistance and tackiness. In view of convenience at the time of removal, a removable pressure-sensitive adhesive is suitable.

The skin contact layer 4 is preferably one that exhibits water permeability in order to quickly transmit moisture to the liquid absorber. For example, what laminated | stacked water-permeable sheets, such as paper, resin, a fiber woven fabric, and a nonwoven fabric, is mentioned. And considering that it contacts with skin for a long time, what has heat retention, breathability, hygroscopicity, and flexibility is preferred. Further, those having antibacterial action including silver ions and the like are preferable. On the other hand, if importance is attached to the smooth feel, paper, resin, fiber woven fabric, non-woven fabric, etc. may be laminated with a sheet subjected to water repellent treatment, or may be combined with water permeable ones. Good.

FIG. 1B shows a state where the thickness adjustment layer 1 of the jewelry attachment adjustment member 100 shown in FIG. 1A absorbs moisture and swells, and the thickness adjustment layer 1 expands, that is, after attachment. It is sectional drawing which showed the state typically. Thus, by deforming only the skin contact layer 4 that is not surrounded by the substrate 2 by the expansion of the thickness adjusting layer 1, high adhesion can be realized with a small expansion rate.

FIG. 2 is a perspective view in which a ring is cut at a cut surface and a part thereof is enlarged in one embodiment when the jewelry attachment adjusting member 100 is attached to the ring 200. The jewelry attachment adjusting member 100 is fixed to the inner surface 8 of the ring 200 with an adhesive. Since the jewelry attachment adjusting member 100 is fixed to the inner side of the outer surface of the ring as in the present embodiment, a part of the jewelry attachment adjusting member 100 does not protrude outside the ring 200 during attachment. Therefore, there is an advantage that it is difficult to discriminate whether or not it is worn from the palm side.

FIG. 3: is a schematic perspective view which shows the structure at the time of forming the jewelry attachment adjustment member in sheet form as 2nd Embodiment about the jewelry attachment adjustment member of this invention. The jewelry attachment adjusting member 120 places the liquid absorber 13 on the absorber holding layer 12, fixes the absorber holding layer 12 to the base 14, and further places the skin contact layer 15 on the liquid absorber 13. It is a thing. In FIG. 3, the liquid absorber 13 is a thickness adjusting layer.

FIG. 4 is a side view showing an embodiment when the jewelry attachment adjusting member 100 is attached to the ring 200. The ring 200 includes a ring 16 and a jewel 17. The jewelry attachment adjusting member 100 may be used by being affixed over the entire periphery of the ring 16, or may be affixed to a part as shown in FIG. In FIG. 4, the jewelry attachment adjusting member 100 is used for the ring 200, but other forms of jewelry attachment adjusting members may be used, for example, using the jewelry attachment adjusting member 120. Also good.

FIG. 5: is a fragmentary sectional view which shows typically 3rd Embodiment about the jewelry installation adjustment member of this invention. The jewelry attachment adjusting member 110 according to the present embodiment includes a foam 9 having a concavo-convex shape on the skin contact surface side, a base body 10, and an adhesive layer 3, and the foam 9 has a plurality of fine pores 11. To do.

According to the structure of FIG. 5, for example, when inserting a finger into the ring-shaped jewelery mounting adjustment member, it is possible to insert the metacarpophalangeal joint portion without resistance by collapsing the convex portion, and then the collapsed convex shape By restoring, high adhesion at the ring wearing position can be realized. Moreover, high adhesiveness is realizable because the foam of a convex part expand | swells. Here, the presence of the plurality of fine holes 11 can be expected to have an effect of facilitating deformation and increasing water absorption efficiency.

As the “foam” in the present specification, various known ones can be used without particular limitation. For example, it may be a foam that can be suitably used as a cushioning material used for automobiles, other vehicles, furniture, bedding, and the like. Examples thereof include polyurethane foam, polystyrene foam, various sponges, cork and the like.

Moreover, the form of the “fiber assembly” in the present specification may be a nonwoven fabric or a fiber web, and various known ones can be used without particular limitation. Examples of the constituent fibers include cellulose fibers such as pulp fibers, rayon and cotton, polyolefin fibers such as polyethylene and polypropylene, polyesters such as polyethylene terephthalate, condensed fibers such as polyamide, polyvinyl chloride, polyvinyl acetate and the like. And vinyl monomer polymer fibers. These may be composed of a single component or a composite fiber composed of a plurality of components.

In addition, as the “water-absorbing polymer” in the present specification, various known polymers can be used without particular limitation. For example, three-dimensionalization of water-soluble polymers such as polyelectrolytes by graft polymerization, cross-linking by cross-linking agent, three-dimensional water-soluble polymer, reticulation by self-crosslinking, reticulation by irradiation, crystal structure It has been insolubilized by the introduction of. Further, those produced by carboxymethylation of a hydrophobic polymer, a method of graft polymerization of a hydrophilic polymer to the hydrophobic polymer, a method of using a hydrolysis reaction of a nitrile group or an ester group can be used. More specifically, natural polymers include starch-based hydrolyzate of starch-acrylonitrile graft polymer, starch-acrylic acid graft polymer, starch-styrene sulfonic acid graft polymer, starch-vinyl sulfonic acid graft. Polymers, starch-acrylamide graft polymers, cellulose-based cellulose-acrylonitrile graft polymers, cellulose-styrene sulfonic acid graft polymers, synthetic polymers include polyvinyl alcohol crosslinked polymers, sodium polyacrylate Cross-linked product, sodium acrylate-vinyl alcohol copolymer, saponified polyacrylonitrile polymer, hydroxyethyl methacrylate polymer, maleic anhydride (co) polymer, vinylpyrrolidone (co) polymer, polyester Glycol diacrylate crosslinked polymer and the like.

The water-absorbing polymer can be used in the form of a sheet of a mixture of various binders and water-absorbing polymer powders or particles, as well as a fiber-impregnated water-absorbing polymer or dispersed in a matrix. And those obtained by making such fibers into a sheet form, and those obtained by mixing other resins and a water-absorbing polymer and applying them in a film form.

As described above, the liquid absorber in the present invention may be composed of only a fiber assembly or a water-absorbing polymer, but is preferably composed of a fiber assembly and a water-absorbing polymer. It is because the moldability of a liquid absorber can be improved by combining a fiber assembly and a water absorbing polymer. Here, the form of the water-absorbing polymer may be held in a state of being dispersed in the fiber gaps of the fiber assembly, or may be sandwiched between non-woven fabrics or fiber webs made of a fiber material.

When laminating, a water-permeable sheet such as paper, resin, fiber woven fabric, and non-woven fabric may be laminated on the water-absorbing polymer layer. Conversely, water repellency is applied to paper, resin, fiber woven fabric, non-woven fabric, etc. You may laminate | stack the sheet | seat which processed. Further, the thickness of the laminated layer may be set to such a thickness that the above-described effects can be exhibited depending on the target film thickness, etc., and when a water absorbing polymer having a large water absorption rate and a large swelling rate is used, The purpose can be achieved even if it is thin.

The “ring size” in this specification refers to an industry-defined size, which starts from No. 1 and increases in the order of No. 2 and No. 3 in an integer order. Each time the ring size increases by 1, the circumference increases by about 1 mm, which is converted to a diameter of about 0.33 mm. For example, in the ring of No. 7, the outer circumference is about 47.1 mm and the diameter is about 15.00 mm. The appropriate ring size varies depending on the wearer because the wearer feels different from person to person. However, as a guideline, an appropriate ring size that is not excessively tightened and does not rotate significantly is recommended. However, the wearing feeling may change depending on the size of the jewel fixed to the pedestal, and a size difference of about 1 to 3 may occur depending on the ring width.

Examples are given below to illustrate the present invention specifically. However, the present invention is not limited to the following examples.

In this example, a sodium acrylate polymer (N-100, manufactured by Nakamura Rika Kogyo Co., Ltd.) having a particle size of 200 μm was used as the water-absorbing polymer. The base was prepared by attaching a polyester film (made by Hose Care Products) having a thickness of 0.085 mm to silicon rubber having a thickness of 0.5 mm. This polyester film is coated with a silicone adhesive and an acrylic adhesive on each side. Then, the water-absorbing polymer was uniformly attached to the surface on which the acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive was applied to such an extent that the pressure-sensitive adhesive was not used.

First, in order to confirm water absorption, the base was processed into a 10 mm × 50 mm plate. When 10 ml of water was given to the water-absorbing polymer attached thereto, the water-absorbing polymer expanded to a height of about 2.0 mm.

Next, in order to confirm the mounting property of the jewelry mounting adjusting member on the 4 mm wide ring, the base was processed into a 4 mm × 30 mm plate. The silicon rubber processed to a width of 1 mm on the plate piece was disposed on the plate piece so as to surround the central portion along the edge of the plate piece. And after making a water-absorbing polymer adhere to this center part, the medical tape of 4 mm x 30 mm in which several fine holes were provided was adhere | attached so that the said center part might be covered. The thus prepared jewelry mounting adjusting member was mounted at the ring wearing position, and when the ring was mounted, good mounting properties were obtained.

Next, in order to confirm the mountability of the jewelry mounting adjustment member to a watch having a watch body having a width of 35 mm and a belt having a width of 15 mm, the base was first processed into a plate piece of 12 mm × 120 mm. The silicon rubber processed to a width of 2 mm was disposed on the plate piece so as to surround the central portion along the edge of the plate piece. And after making a water-absorbing polymer adhere to this center part, the medical tape of 12 mm x 120 mm in which several fine holes were provided was adhere | attached so that the said center part might be covered. The jewelry mounting / adjusting member thus produced was affixed to the wristwatch so that the watch body was in the center, and when the wristwatch was mounted, good mounting properties were obtained.
