Description

Biiou à décor transformable Biiou with transformable decoration
La présente invention concerne un bijou à décor transformable.The present invention relates to a jewel with transformable decoration.
Elle se rapporte plus particulièrement à un bijou du type bague, broche, boucle d'oreille ou analogue, portant des éléments décoratifs dont la couleur peut être modifiée afin d'être harmonisée avec une tenue vestimentaire ou encore les envies de la personne portant ledit bijou.It relates more particularly to a piece of jewelry of the ring, brooch, earring or similar type, carrying decorative elements, the color of which can be modified in order to be harmonized with a dress or the desires of the person wearing said piece of jewelry. .
On connaît déjà dans l'état de la technique antérieure, notamment par le brevet FR 1 381 490, une bague ou analogue pourvue d'un chaton portant au moins deux éléments décoratifs qui est monté pivotant entre les deux extrémités d'ouverture du corps de la bague en forme d'anneau fendu offrant ainsi aux usagers la possibilité de deux ou plusieurs présentations différentes.Already known in the prior art, in particular from patent FR 1 381 490, a ring or the like provided with a kitten carrying at least two decorative elements which is pivotally mounted between the two opening ends of the body of the ring in the form of a split ring thus offering users the possibility of two or more different presentations.
Un tel bijou bien que satisfaisant présente l'inconvénient de nécessiter son enlèvement du doigt afin de positionner un autre élément décoratif.Such a jewelry although satisfactory has the disadvantage of requiring its removal from the finger in order to position another decorative element.
Le but de l'invention est de proposer un bijou à décor transformable permettant de résoudre l'inconvénient précité et procurant un nouvel attrait pour les bijoux transformables.The object of the invention is to propose a jewel with transformable decoration making it possible to solve the aforementioned drawback and providing a new attraction for transformable jewelry.
A cet effet, la présente invention a pour objet un bijou constitué d'un chaton support de pierreries et/ou de tout autre motif décoratif, caractérisé en ce que ce chaton-support est surplombé d'une pièce d'ornement conformée de façon à occulter uniquement certaines parties des pierreries et/ou du motif décoratif du chaton et pourvue d'un mécanisme permettant son pivotement autour d'un axe vertical par rapport à la face support du chaton ainsi que son verrouillage automatique à chaque rotation de la pièce.To this end, the subject of the present invention is a jewel consisting of a kitten supporting stones and / or any other decorative motif, characterized in that this kitten support is overhung by an ornamental piece shaped so as to only hide certain parts of the precious stones and / or decorative pattern of the kitten and provided with a mechanism allowing it to pivot about a vertical axis relative to the support face of the kitten as well as its automatic locking at each rotation of the part.
Selon une caractéristique avantageuse, le chaton support est muni de différents secteurs de pierreries et/ou de motif dont la taille et la forme de chacun des secteurs est identique à chacune des parties saillantes d'un anneau central constituant la pièce d'ornement.According to an advantageous characteristic, the support kitten is provided with different sectors of precious stones and / or of pattern whose size and shape of each of the sectors is identical to each of the projecting parts of a central ring constituting the ornamental piece.
Selon une autre caractéristique avantageuse, la pièce d'ornement est en outre munie d'au moins une partie saillante destinée à occulter au moins un des secteurs agencés de manière régulière sur le chaton.According to another advantageous characteristic, the ornamental piece is further provided with at least one projecting part intended to conceal at least one of the sectors arranged regularly on the kitten.
Selon encore une autre caractéristique avantageuse, les parties saillantes de la pièce d'ornement sont munies de pierreries et/ou de motif d'ornement. Toujours selon l'invention, le mécanisme de pivotement et de verrouillage automatique est constitué d'un axe, formé d'un écrou agencé au centre de la pièce d'ornement et d'une vis, d'un élément élastique destiné à plaquer la pièce d'ornement sur le chaton et d'un système de cran d'arrêt en rotation pour chaque secteur constitué d'une encoche et de rampes juxtaposées à celle-ci agencées sur le chaton qui coopèrent avec des ergots en forme de « V » de la pièce d'ornement aptes à se loger et s'immobiliser dans une encoche sous la force de rappel de l'élément élastique.According to yet another advantageous characteristic, the projecting parts of the ornamental piece are provided with precious stones and / or with an ornamental motif. Still according to the invention, the pivoting and automatic locking mechanism consists of an axis, formed of a nut arranged in the center of the ornamental piece and of a screw, of an elastic element intended to press the ornamental piece on the kitten and a system of notch in rotation for each sector consisting of a notch and ramps juxtaposed thereto arranged on the kitten which cooperate with lugs in the shape of a "V" of the ornamental piece capable of being housed and immobilized in a notch under the return force of the elastic element.
Selon une variante de réalisation, le mécanisme de pivotement et de verrouillage de la pièce d'ornement est constitué de deux portions cylindriques montées coaxialement dont l'une est solidaire du chaton et l'autre de la pièce d'ornement et immobilisées axialement par l'intermédiaire d'un clip et en ce que la rotation libre de l'une des portions cylindriques par rapport à l'autre est contrariée par l'agencement d'un élément élastique saillant du corps de la portion cylindrique de la pièce d'ornement afin de se loger dans un évidemment réalisé pour chaque secteur de pierreries et/ou de motif du chaton.According to an alternative embodiment, the pivoting and locking mechanism of the ornamental piece consists of two cylindrical portions mounted coaxially, one of which is integral with the kitten and the other of the ornamental piece and immobilized axially by the by means of a clip and in that the free rotation of one of the cylindrical portions relative to the other is hampered by the arrangement of an elastic element projecting from the body of the cylindrical portion of the ornamental piece in order to find accommodation in an obviously made for each area of precious stones and / or kitten motif.
Les caractéristiques de l'invention mentionnées ci-dessus, ainsi que d'autres, apparaîtront plus clairement à la lecture de la description suivante d'un exemple de réalisation, en se référant aux dessins annexés sur lesquels :The characteristics of the invention mentioned above, as well as others, will appear more clearly on reading the following description of an exemplary embodiment, with reference to the appended drawings in which:
- la figure 1 est une vue en perspective d'une bague transformable selon la présente invention,FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a transformable ring according to the present invention,
- la figure 2 est une vue en perspective éclatée de la bague selon la figure 1 ,FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view of the ring according to FIG. 1,
- les figures 3a et 3b sont des vues de dessus d'une bague selon l'invention illustrant des variantes de réalisation, etFIGS. 3a and 3b are top views of a ring according to the invention illustrating alternative embodiments, and
- la figure 4 est une vue partielle en coupe transversale d'une variante de réalisation d'une bague selon l'invention.- Figure 4 is a partial cross-sectional view of an alternative embodiment of a ring according to the invention.
On a représenté sur les figures 1 et 2, une bague 1 constituée d'un corps 2 en forme d'anneau et d'un chaton 3 support de pierreries et/ou de tout autre motif décoratif.There is shown in Figures 1 and 2, a ring 1 consisting of a body 2 in the form of a ring and a kitten 3 support of precious stones and / or any other decorative motif.
Selon la présente invention, ce chaton-support 3 est surplombé d'une pièce d'ornement 4 conformée de façon à occulter uniquement certaines parties des pierreries et/ou du motif décoratif du chaton 3 et pourvue d'un mécanisme permettant son pivotement autour d'un axe vertical par rapport à la face support du chaton ainsi que son verrouillage automatique à chaque rotation de la pièce 4.According to the present invention, this support kitten 3 is overhung by an ornamental piece 4 shaped so as to conceal only certain parts of the jewels and / or decorative pattern of the kitten 3 and provided with a mechanism allowing its pivoting around a vertical axis relative to the support face of the kitten as well as its automatic locking at each rotation of the part 4.
Selon un mode de réalisation préférentiel, le chaton support 3 est muni de différents secteurs 5 de pierreries et/ou de motif dont la taille et la forme de chacun des "secteurs 5 est identique à chacune des parties saillantes 6 d'un anneau central 7 constituant la pièce d'ornement 4.According to a preferred embodiment, the support kitten 3 is provided with different sectors 5 of precious stones and / or of pattern whose size and shape of each of the "sectors 5 is identical to each of the projecting parts 6 of a central ring 7 constituting the ornamental piece 4.
Cette pièce d'ornement 4 est en outre munie d'au moins une partie saillante 6 destinée à occulter au moins un des secteurs 5 agencés de manière régulière sur le chaton 3. Ainsi, à titre d'exemple la bague 1 représentée sur les figures 1 et 2 est munie de trois parties saillantes 6 sur la pièce d'ornement 4 et de neuf secteurs 5 de pierreries.This ornamental piece 4 is further provided with at least one projecting portion 6 intended to conceal at least one of the sectors 5 arranged regularly on the kitten 3. Thus, by way of example, the ring 1 shown in the figures 1 and 2 is provided with three projecting parts 6 on the ornamental piece 4 and with nine sectors 5 of precious stones.
On notera que les parties saillantes 6 de la pièce d'ornement 4 peuvent également être munies de pierreries et/ou de motif d'ornement permettant ainsi de composer avec les différentes couleurs de pierre formant le chaton 3, une bague qu'il est possible de moduler afin d'être en harmonie avec sa tenue vestimentaire par exemple.It will be noted that the projecting parts 6 of the ornamental piece 4 can also be provided with precious stones and / or an ornamental motif thus making it possible to compose with the different colors of stone forming the kitten 3, a ring which is possible. to modulate in order to be in harmony with his dress, for example.
Comme visible aux figures 3a et 3b, la forme des parties saillantes 6 de la pièce d'ornement 4 peuvent être de forme et de taille très diverses.As shown in Figures 3a and 3b, the shape of the projecting parts 6 of the ornamental piece 4 can be of very different shape and size.
Le mécanisme de pivotement et de verrouillage automatique est avantageusement constitué, comme illustré à la figure 2, d'un axe, formé par exemple d'un écrou 8 agencé au centre de la pièce d'ornement 4 et d'une vis 9, d'un élément élastique 10 destiné à plaquer la pièce d'ornement 4 sur le chaton 3 et d'un système de cran d'arrêt en rotation constitué d'encoches 11 et de rampes 12 juxtaposées aux encoches 11 agencées sur le chaton 3 qui coopèrent avec des ergots (non représentés) en forme de « V » de la pièce d'ornement 4 aptes à se loger et s'immobiliser dans une encoche 11 sous la force de rappel de l'élément élastique 10.The pivoting and automatic locking mechanism advantageously consists, as illustrated in FIG. 2, of an axis, formed for example of a nut 8 arranged in the center of the ornamental piece 4 and of a screw 9, d 'an elastic element 10 intended to press the ornamental piece 4 on the kitten 3 and a system of notch in rotation consisting of notches 11 and ramps 12 juxtaposed with the notches 11 arranged on the kitten 3 which cooperate with lugs (not shown) in the shape of a "V" of the ornamental piece 4 capable of being housed and immobilized in a notch 11 under the return force of the elastic element 10.
Chaque secteur 5 du chaton 3 est pourvu d'une encoche 11 et d'une paire de rampes 12 disposées à proximité de l'encoche 11 formant ainsi un cran d'arrêt lors de la rotation de la pièce d'ornement 4.Each sector 5 of the kitten 3 is provided with a notch 11 and a pair of ramps 12 disposed near the notch 11, thus forming a catch when the ornamental piece 4 rotates.
On comprend ainsi que pour changer l'aspect de la bague 1 en occultant certains motifs et/ou pierres, il suffit d'exercer une légère pression dans le sens horaire ou anti-horaire sur la pièce d'ornement 4 et de provoquer ainsi la rotation de celle-ci jusqu'à ce que les motifs occultés apparaissent et ceux agencés à proximité, dans le sens de rotation, disparaissent, enclenchant du même coup les ergots de la pièce d'ornement 4 dans les encoches 11 des secteurs 5 du chaton 3 alors occulté.It is thus understood that to change the appearance of the ring 1 by obscuring certain patterns and / or stones, it suffices to exert a slight pressure in the direction clockwise or counterclockwise on the ornamental piece 4 and thus cause the rotation thereof until the occulted patterns appear and those arranged nearby, in the direction of rotation, disappear, simultaneously engaging the pins of the ornamental piece 4 in the notches 11 of the sectors 5 of the kitten 3 then obscured.
Un tel changement de motif peut être fait à volonté, c'est-à-dire à tout moment et, sans même ôter la bague du doigt. Il aura pour conséquence de modifier rapidement l'aspect esthétique de la bague. En outre, il est envisageable d'agencer sur le chaton un motif en pierres précieuses sur certains secteurs uniquement afin de permettre de les occulter par la pièce d'ornement les abritant ainsi de la convoitise d'éventuelles personnes mal intentionnées.Such a change of pattern can be made at will, that is to say at any time and, without even removing the ring from the finger. As a result, the aesthetic appearance of the ring will quickly change. In addition, it is possible to arrange on the kitten a gemstone pattern on certain areas only to allow them to be hidden by the ornamental piece thus sheltering them from the lust of possible malicious people.
On constatera que le mécanisme de pivotement et de verrouillage est complètement occulté par la partie centrale de la pièce d'ornement.It will be seen that the pivoting and locking mechanism is completely obscured by the central part of the ornamental piece.
On a représenté à la figure 4, une variante de réalisation du mécanisme de pivotement et de verrouillage de la pièce d'ornement 4 qui est constitué de deux portions cylindriques 13 et 14 montées coaxialement dont l'une 13 est solidaire du chaton 3 et l'autre 14 de la pièce d'ornement 4 et immobilisées axialement par l'intermédiaire d'un clip 15. La rotation libre de l'une 14 des portions cylindriques par rapport à l'autre 3 est contrariée par l'agencement d'un élément élastique 16, présentant la forme d'un anneau ouvert, saillant du corps de la portion cylindrique 14 de la pièce d'ornement 4 afin de se loger dans un évidemment 17 réalisé pour chaque secteur 5 de pierreries et/ou de motif du chaton 3.There is shown in Figure 4, an alternative embodiment of the pivoting and locking mechanism of the ornamental piece 4 which consists of two cylindrical portions 13 and 14 mounted coaxially of which one 13 is secured to the kitten 3 and l 'other 14 of the ornamental piece 4 and axially immobilized by means of a clip 15. The free rotation of one 14 of the cylindrical portions relative to the other 3 is hampered by the arrangement of a elastic element 16, having the shape of an open ring, projecting from the body of the cylindrical portion 14 of the ornamental piece 4 so as to be housed in a recess 17 produced for each sector 5 of jewels and / or of the kitten motif 3.
On comprend que cet élément élastique 16 est apte à s'éclipser dans le corps 14 de la pièce d'ornement 4 par compression lors d'un entraînement en rotation jusqu'à qu'il rencontre un évidemment 17 correspondant à un motif qui sera occulté par la pièce d'ornement.We understand that this elastic element 16 is able to slip into the body 14 of the ornamental piece 4 by compression during a rotational drive until it meets a recess 17 corresponding to a pattern which will be obscured by the ornamental piece.
On comprend à la lecture de la description ci-dessus que le bijou de la présente invention est relativement simple à réaliser et permet d'obtenir simplement au moins deux bijoux différents avec un unique support.It will be understood from reading the description above that the jewel of the present invention is relatively simple to produce and makes it possible to simply obtain at least two different jewels with a single support.
Bien que l'invention ait été décrite en liaison avec deux modes de réalisation particuliers d'une bague elle comprend tous les équivalents techniques des moyens décrits. C'est ainsi que le bijou selon la présente invention peut s'appliquer à une bague, une broche, des boucles d'oreille ou analogue. Although the invention has been described in connection with two particular embodiments of a ring, it includes all the technical equivalents of the means described. Thus the jewel according to the present invention can be applied to a ring, a brooch, earrings or the like.
