Description

Article tel qu'un bijou comprenant des pierres d'ornement serties  Item such as a jewel including set ornamental stones
L'invention concerne les articles, tels que les bijoux, comprenant une monture et des pierres d'ornement.  The invention relates to articles, such as jewelery, comprising a frame and ornamental stones.
On connaît par exemple du document US-6 415 629 un bijou comprenant des pierres fixées à une monture d'une part au moyen de vis en prise avec une base de la monture et d'autre part au moyen d'un rail périphérique dans lequel est engagé le feuilletis des pierres. Chacune des pierres est donc maintenue par les vis et par le rail.  Document US Pat. No. 6,415,629 discloses a jewel comprising stones attached to a frame on the one hand by means of screws engaged with a base of the frame and, on the other hand, by means of a peripheral rail in which is engaged the leafing stones. Each of the stones is therefore maintained by the screws and the rail.
Ce montage présente des inconvénients. En premier lieu, en raison de la présence des rails, une grande partie de la monture est visible autour des pierres lorsqu'on observe la face du bijou portant ces dernières. Cela nuit à la mise en valeur des pierres. En second lieu, ce montage laisse peu de liberté pour la conception de la forme des bijoux.  This arrangement has disadvantages. First of all, because of the presence of the rails, a large part of the frame is visible around the stones when one observes the face of the jewel bearing the latter. This is detrimental to the development of the stones. In the second place, this assembly leaves little freedom for the design of the shape of the jewels.
Un but de l'invention est de mettre les pierres davantage en valeur et d'offrir plus de liberté dans la conception de l'article.  An object of the invention is to put the stones more in value and to offer more freedom in the design of the article.
A cet effet, on prévoit selon l'invention un article, tel qu'un bijou, comprenant : For this purpose, according to the invention, an article, such as a jewel, comprising:
- une monture, - a frame,
- des pierres d'ornement et  - ornamental stones and
- des organes de sertissage reliés chacun à la monture par un unique pied et assurant à eux seuls le maintien des pierres contre la monture, certains des organes de sertissage étant chacun en contact avec au moins trois des pierres. - Crimping members each connected to the frame by a single foot and ensuring alone the maintenance of the stones against the frame, some of the crimping members being each in contact with at least three of the stones.
Ainsi, les organes de sertissage peuvent être réalisés pour occuper une surface réduite au-dessus des pierres et donc assurer une visibilité optimale à ces dernières pour leur mise en valeur. De plus, les organes de sertissage formant des zones discontinues de maintien des pierres, ce montage offre plus de souplesse pour concevoir la forme du bijou. En outre, ce montage ne nécessite pas d'altérer les pierres au niveau de la culasse en y réalisant des entailles, comme c'est le cas pour les montages appelés communément sertis mystérieux ou sertis invisibles.Thus, the crimping members can be made to occupy a reduced surface above the stones and thus ensure optimal visibility to the latter for their development. In addition, the crimping members forming discontinuous areas for holding stones, this assembly provides more flexibility to design the shape of the jewel. In addition, this assembly does not require altering the stones at the breech by making notches, as is the case for assemblies commonly called mysterious crimped or crimped invisible.
De préférence, au moins l'un des organes de sertissage est en contact avec au moins cinq des pierres, de préférence six des pierres. Preferably, at least one of the crimping members is in contact with at least five of the stones, preferably six of the stones.
Ainsi, en augmentant le nombre de pierres maintenues par le ou les organes de sertissage, on peut réduire le nombre de ces derniers et accroître encore la visibilité des pierres au détriment de celle de la structure qui les porte.  Thus, by increasing the number of stones maintained by the crimping member (s), it is possible to reduce the number of these and to increase the visibility of the stones to the detriment of that of the structure that carries them.
Avantageusement, les pierres maintenues par les organes de sertissage forment un ensemble présentant un bord périphérique, les organes de sertissage distants du bord étant chacun en contact avec au moins cinq des pierres.  Advantageously, the stones held by the crimping members form an assembly having a peripheral edge, the crimping members remote from the edge being each in contact with at least five of the stones.
De préférence, au moins certaines des pierres, et de préférence toutes, présentent des arêtes rectilignes respectives en regard les unes des autres et parallèles les unes aux autres, et de préférence contigues. Preferably, at least some of the stones, and preferably all, have respective straight edges facing each other and parallel to each other, and preferably contiguous.
Cet agencement des arêtes permet aux pierres d'occuper la plus grande partie de la surface de la face de l'article. Il permet aussi de dissimuler la monture à la vue, et ce partiellement voire complètement.  This arrangement of the ridges allows the stones to occupy most of the surface of the face of the article. It also allows to hide the mount to the view, and this partially or completely.
Dans un mode de réalisation, la monture comprend des branches portant les pierres, disposées en réseau et formant au moins une étoile à trois branches au moins.  In one embodiment, the frame comprises branches carrying the stones, arranged in a network and forming at least one star with at least three branches.
Une telle monture est particulièrement légère et peu visible depuis la face de l'article portant les pierres.  Such a frame is particularly light and not visible from the face of the article carrying the stones.
De préférence, pour au moins l'un des organes de sertissage, et de préférence tous, au moins deux des pierres en contact avec l'organe, et de préférence toutes, présentent des tables respectives inclinées l'une par rapport à l'autre.  Preferably, for at least one of the crimping members, and preferably all, at least two of the stones in contact with the organ, and preferably all, have tables respectively inclined relative to each other .
On peut ainsi prévoir que les tables forment un angle inférieur à 180°, cet angle étant mesuré intégralement à l'extérieur des pierres.  It can thus be expected that the tables form an angle less than 180 °, this angle being measured integrally outside the stones.
On peut encore prévoir que les tables forment un angle supérieur à 180°, cet angle étant mesuré intégralement à l'extérieur des pierres.  It is also possible that the tables form an angle greater than 180 °, this angle being measured integrally outside the stones.
Ainsi, les pierres peuvent prendre une configuration en bosse ou au contraire en dépression. Ces configurations sont rendues possibles par la souplesse de conception qu'offre le montage selon l'invention. On peut notamment réaliser un bijou dans lequel les tables des pierres sont inclinées les unes par rapport aux autres, ou dans lequel les pierres prennent à la fois des configurations en bosse et des configurations en dépression.  Thus, the stones can take a configuration in hump or on the contrary in depression. These configurations are made possible by the flexibility of design offered by the assembly according to the invention. One can in particular realize a jewel in which the stone tables are inclined relative to each other, or in which the stones take both configurations hump and configurations in depression.
De préférence, au moins certaines des pierres, et de préférence toutes, ont une forme de polygone irrégulier en vue en plan telle que ce plan est parallèle à une table de la pierre.  Preferably, at least some of the stones, and preferably all, have an irregular polygon shape in plan view such that the plane is parallel to a stone table.
Une telle forme contribue à donner un effet chahuté à l'article.  Such a shape helps to give a heckled effect to the article.
On peut prévoir qu'au moins certaines des pierres, et de préférence toutes, ont une forme générale triangulaire en vue en plan telle que ce plan est parallèle à une table de la pierre, les coins du triangle étant tronqués.  It can be expected that at least some of the stones, and preferably all, have a generally triangular shape in plan view such that this plane is parallel to a table of the stone, the corners of the triangle being truncated.
Avantageusement, au moins certaines des pierres, et de préférence toutes, présentent, en vue en plan telle que ce plan est parallèle à une table de la pierre, des contours de forme et/ou de dimensions différentes les unes des autres.  Advantageously, at least some of the stones, and preferably all, have, in plan view such that this plane is parallel to a table of the stone, contours of shape and / or dimensions different from each other.
Cette disposition est elle aussi favorable à l'obtention d'un effet chahuté.  This provision is also favorable to obtaining a heckled effect.
On peut aussi prévoir qu'au moins certaines des pierres, et de préférence toutes, ont une forme générale dépourvue d'axe de symétrie, en vue en plan telle que ce plan est parallèle à une table de la pierre. Cette disposition elle aussi permet d'obtenir un tel effet. It can also be expected that at least some of the stones, and preferably all, have a general shape devoid of axis of symmetry, in plan view such that this plane is parallel to a table stone. This provision also allows to obtain such an effect.
De préférence, au moins certaines des pierres présentent une culasse de forme dissymétrique par rapport à un axe perpendiculaire à une table de la pierre et passant par un barycentre de la table.  Preferably, at least some of the stones have a cylinder head of asymmetric shape with respect to an axis perpendicular to a table of the stone and passing through a center of gravity of the table.
Cette dissymétrie facilite la disposition contigue des pierres notamment lorsque les tables des pierres sont inclinées les unes par rapport aux autres. En effet, si au contraire la culasse présente une forme symétrique, les culasses de deux pierres contiguës peuvent venir interférer avec une branche de l'armature ou avec l'organe de sertissage qui passe entre elles.  This dissymmetry facilitates the contiguous disposition of the stones, especially when the stone tables are inclined relative to each other. Indeed, if instead the cylinder head has a symmetrical shape, the yokes of two adjacent stones can come interfere with a branch of the frame or with the crimping member passing between them.
Avantageusement, les organes de sertissage sont en contact avec chaque pierre dans la zone du rondiste de la pierre.  Advantageously, the crimping members are in contact with each stone in the area of the rondiste of the stone.
On peut prévoir qu'au moins l'un des organes de sertissage relie les pierres à la monture au moyen d'une liaison vis-écrou.  It can be provided that at least one of the crimping members connects the stones to the frame by means of a screw-nut connection.
Un tel mode de réalisation facilite l'assemblage de l'article voire son démontage si celui-ci est rendu nécessaire.  Such an embodiment facilitates the assembly of the article or its disassembly if it is necessary.
Nous allons maintenant présenter à titre d'exemple non limitatif un mode de réalisation de l'invention à l'appui des dessins sur lesquels :  We will now present by way of non-limiting example an embodiment of the invention in support of the drawings in which:
- les figures 1 , 2 et 3 sont des vues respectives en perspective, de côté et en plan d'une bague selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention ;  - Figures 1, 2 and 3 are respective views in perspective, side and in plan of a ring according to one embodiment of the invention;
- les figures 4 et 5 sont des vues en perspective de dessus et de dessous de la monture de la bague de la figure 1 ; FIGS. 4 and 5 are perspective views from above and from below of the frame of the ring of FIG. 1;
- la figure 6 est une vue éclatée de l'ensemble des pierres de la bague de la figure 1 qui sont posées sur un support provisoire ;  - Figure 6 is an exploded view of all the stones of the ring of Figure 1 which are placed on a temporary support;
- la figure 7 illustre en vue en plan une disposition de certaines des pierres de la bague de la figure 1 ;  - Figure 7 illustrates in plan view a disposition of some of the stones of the ring of Figure 1;
- les figures 8 et 9 sont deux vues en perspective d'une partie de la bague de la figure 1 ; et  - Figures 8 and 9 are two perspective views of a portion of the ring of Figure 1; and
- la figure 10 est une vue en coupe partielle de la bague de la figure 1 illustrant le maintien des pierres.  - Figure 10 is a partial sectional view of the ring of Figure 1 illustrating the maintenance of stones.
On a illustré sur les figures un bijou 2 conforme à l'invention formant en l'espèce une bague. Il pourrait s'agir néanmoins de tout objet pouvant être utilisé dans le domaine de la bijouterie et de la joaillerie, et notamment d'un collier, d'un bracelet, de boucles d'oreille, d'une broche, etc. De plus, l'invention est applicable à des articles ne constituant pas en eux-mêmes un bijou ou bien dans lesquels le bijou ne forme qu'une partie de l'article. Il peut s'agir par exemple d'un sac à main, de chaussures ou de vêtements comprenant des pierres montées conformément à l'invention. La bague 2 comprend une monture 4 visible notamment aux figures 4, 5 et 8 à 10, de forme générale annulaire et définissant un conduit pour le passage du doigt du porteur de la bague. There is illustrated in the figures a jewel 2 according to the invention forming in this case a ring. It could nevertheless be any object that can be used in the field of jewelery and jewelry, including a necklace, a bracelet, earrings, a brooch, etc. In addition, the invention is applicable to articles not constituting in themselves a jewel or in which the jewel forms only part of the article. This may be for example a handbag, shoes or clothing including stones mounted according to the invention. The ring 2 comprises a mount 4 visible in particular in Figures 4, 5 and 8 to 10, of generally annular shape and defining a conduit for the passage of the finger of the wearer of the ring.
La bague comprend un ensemble de pierres d'ornement qui sont en l'espèce des saphirs 6. Ces saphirs sont ici au nombre de vingt-sept mais ce dernier n'est pas limitatif, le nombre de pierres montées conformément à l'invention pouvant être inférieur ou supérieur à cette valeur et par exemple égal à dix, vingt ou trente. Ces pierres sont notamment visibles séparément les unes des autres sur la figure 6 avant montage et sur les figures 1 à 3 une fois montées sur la monture 4. Sur la figure 6, elles sont reçues sur un support provisoire en mastic ou en résine.  The ring comprises a set of ornamental stones which are in this case sapphires 6. These sapphires are here twenty-seven but the latter is not limiting, the number of stones mounted according to the invention may to be lower or higher than this value and for example equal to ten, twenty or thirty. These stones are in particular visible separately from each other in FIG. 6 before mounting and in FIGS. 1 to 3 when mounted on the mount 4. In FIG. 6, they are received on a temporary support made of mastic or resin.
Chaque pierre comprend une table plane 8 de forme polygonale qui constitue la plus grande face de la pierre et sa face la mieux visible. Dans toute la suite, une vue en plan de la pierre désigne une vue telle que ce plan est parallèle à la table c'est-à-dire une vue suivant un axe perpendiculaire à cette dernière. De façon classique et comme illustré par exemple sur la figure 10, chacune des pierres 6 présente une culasse 10, un rondiste 11 et un feuilletis 12 s'étendant entre la table et la culasse, à la jonction de cette dernière avec le rondiste.  Each stone comprises a flat table 8 of polygonal shape which constitutes the largest face of the stone and its most visible face. In all the following, a plan view of the stone designates a view such that this plane is parallel to the table that is to say a view along an axis perpendicular to the latter. In a conventional manner and as illustrated for example in Figure 10, each of the stones 6 has a yoke 10, a girdle 11 and a leaflet 12 extending between the table and the yoke, at the junction of the latter with the girdle.
Toutes les pierres montées conformément à l'invention ont en l'espèce un contour en forme de polygone irrégulier en vue en plan comme illustré à la figure 6. Ce contour est celui du feuilletis 12. En particulier, ce contour a une forme générale dépourvue d'axe de symétrie. Dans le présent exemple, ce contour a une forme générale triangulaire, les coins du triangle étant tronqués. Toutefois, les troncatures entamant les coins du triangle sont de si petites dimensions que chaque pierre conserve sa forme générale triangulaire. Les pierres pourraient avoir une autre forme que celle d'un triangle, et par exemple le feuilletis pourrait être un polygone à quatre côtés ou plus, les côtés étant rectilignes ou éventuellement incurvés.  All the stones mounted in accordance with the invention have in this case an irregular polygon-shaped contour in plan view as illustrated in FIG. 6. This contour is that of the laminate 12. In particular, this contour has a general shape devoid of axis of symmetry. In the present example, this outline has a generally triangular shape, the corners of the triangle being truncated. However, the truncations entering the corners of the triangle are so small that each stone retains its triangular general shape. The stones could have a shape other than that of a triangle, and for example the leaflet could be a polygon with four sides or more, the sides being rectilinear or possibly curved.
De plus, dans le mode de réalisation illustré toutes les pierres sont taillées et/ou choisies de sorte que ces contours sont de formes et de dimensions différentes les uns des autres. Par conséquent, on ne trouve pas dans cet ensemble deux pierres dont les contours sont superposables. La taille des pierres est également prévue pour qu'une fois montées sur l'armature, les pierres forment une mosaïque à trois dimensions où les pierres sont jointives. Les arêtes adjacentes de deux pierres jointives ont une longueur égale au niveau du feuilletis. Les polygones des feuilletis ont également des sommets adjacents, c'est-à-dire que les arêtes adjacentes des pierres convergent vers un nœud. Au niveau d'un nœud qui n'est pas situé sur le bord de l'ensemble des pierres, la somme des angles au sommet des polygones est égale à 360 degrés, l'ensemble des pierres étant vu en projection sur un plan. En d'autres termes, la taille des pierres est prévue pour que les pierres forment une mosaïques tridimensionnelle de pierres jointives. In addition, in the illustrated embodiment all the stones are cut and / or chosen so that these contours are of different shapes and sizes from each other. Therefore, we do not find in this set two stones whose outlines are superimposable. The size of the stones is also provided so that once mounted on the frame, the stones form a three-dimensional mosaic where the stones are joined. The adjacent ridges of two joined stones have a length equal to the level of the leaflet. Polygons on the leaflet also have adjacent vertices, that is, the adjacent edges of the stones converge to a node. At a node that is not located on the edge of all the stones, the sum of the angles at the top of the polygons is equal to 360 degrees, the set of stones being seen in projection on a plane. In other words, the size of the stones is intended for the stones to form a three-dimensional mosaic of contiguous stones.
La monture 4 présente une armature 13 formée par des branches rectilignes 14 qui sont toutes reliées les unes aux autres à leurs extrémités longitudinales pour former un réseau ou une résille. Les extrémités des branches reliées entre elles forment ainsi des nœuds du réseau et les branches définissent entre elles des alvéoles 16 de forme triangulaire. Les branches sont disposées de sorte que deux branches qui se rejoignent à un même nœud rejoignent par ailleurs les extrémités respectives d'une même troisième branche. Les branches forment ainsi notamment des nœuds ou étoiles à trois, quatre, cinq ou six branches. Des étoiles à six branches sont notamment illustrées aux figures 4 et 5. Comme illustré à la figure 10, chaque alvéole 16 sert à la réception d'une unique pierre 6 dont la culasse est placée en appui contre les trois branches de l'alvéole simultanément, la culasse 10 traversant l'alvéole pour s'étendre au-dessous du plan défini par les trois branches tandis que la table 8 s'étend au-dessus de ce plan.  The frame 4 has a frame 13 formed by rectilinear branches 14 which are all connected to each other at their longitudinal ends to form a network or mesh. The ends of the branches connected together form nodes of the network and the branches define between them cells 16 of triangular shape. The branches are arranged so that two branches that meet at the same node join the respective ends of the same third branch. The branches thus form particular nodes or stars with three, four, five or six branches. Six-pointed stars are illustrated in particular in FIGS. 4 and 5. As illustrated in FIG. 10, each cell 16 serves to receive a single stone 6 whose yoke is placed in abutment against the three branches of the cell at the same time. , the yoke 10 passing through the cell to extend below the plane defined by the three branches while the table 8 extends above this plane.
Les branches sont profilées, ce profil ayant en l'espèce une forme à section triangulaire avec le sommet du triangle pointant vers l'extérieur de la bague.  The branches are profiled, this profile having in this case a triangular section with the top of the triangle pointing outwardly of the ring.
Les trois branches de chaque alvéole forment un plan mais les branches sont disposées de sorte que ces plans sont inclinés les uns par rapport aux autres. Ainsi, lorsque trois branches se rejoignent à un même nœud, elles ne sont pas coplanaires. Les branches sont ici disposées de sorte que les alvéoles contigues à un même nœud comme illustré à la figure 7 ont des plans qui sont inclinés les uns par rapport aux autres. Cette inclinaison peut être choisie pour définir un angle rentrant b entre deux des branches, comme illustré en partie gauche de la figure 10. Mais elle peut aussi être choisie pour définir un angle sortant a comme illustré en partie droite de la figure 10. Ainsi, bien que l'armature ait une forme générale convexe cylindrique qui correspond à celle de la monture, elle présente localement plusieurs dépressions.  The three branches of each cell form a plane but the branches are arranged so that these planes are inclined relative to each other. Thus, when three branches join at the same node, they are not coplanar. The branches are here arranged so that the cells contiguous to the same node as shown in Figure 7 have plans that are inclined relative to each other. This inclination can be chosen to define a re-entrant angle b between two of the branches, as shown in the left-hand part of FIG. 10. But it can also be chosen to define an outgoing angle a as illustrated in the right-hand part of FIG. although the frame has a generally convex cylindrical shape which corresponds to that of the mount, it presents locally several depressions.
Le nombre des branches qui délimitent une alvéole n'est pas limité à trois et peut être supérieur. Il est en fait égal au nombre d'arêtes de la pierre qui est prévue pour être logée dans l'alvéole.  The number of branches delimiting a cell is not limited to three and may be greater. It is actually equal to the number of edges of the stone that is intended to be housed in the cell.
La bague comprend en outre des organes de sertissage 20 qui sont ici au nombre de vingt, ce nombre n'étant pas limitatif. Par exemple, ces organes pourraient être au nombre de dix ou de vingt-cinq. Ces organes assurent à eux seuls le maintien des pierres contre la monture en réalisant leur immobilisation rigide sur cette dernière. Les pierres sont disposées en l'espèce de sorte que leur ensemble présente une surface quasi continue et un bord périphérique 23. Certains des organes de sertissage s'étendent au niveau de ce bord. Ils sont en l'espèce au nombre de onze. D'autres s'étendent à distance de ce bord et sont en l'espèce au nombre de neuf. The ring further comprises crimping members 20 which are here twenty in number, this number is not limiting. For example, these organs could be ten or twenty-five. These bodies alone ensure the maintenance of the stones against the mount by realizing their rigid immobilization on the latter. The stones are arranged in this case so that their set has a nearly continuous surface and a peripheral edge 23. Some of the crimping members extend at this edge. There are eleven in this case. Others extend at a distance from this edge and are in this case nine in number.
La monture comprend des tubes 22 associés aux organes 20 respectifs et positionnés aux nœuds respectifs du réseau. Chaque tube présente une forme cylindrique allongée dont l'axe est incliné par rapport à chacune des branches du nœud. Le tube présente des faces externe et interne cylindriques à section circulaire dans un plan perpendiculaire à l'axe.  The frame comprises tubes 22 associated with the respective members 20 and positioned at the respective nodes of the network. Each tube has an elongated cylindrical shape whose axis is inclined relative to each of the branches of the node. The tube has cylindrical outer and inner faces with a circular section in a plane perpendicular to the axis.
Chaque organe 20 comprend en l'espèce une vis 24 traversant le tube de sorte qu'une tête 26 de la vis déborde du contour de l'extrémité externe du tube en direction radiale et que l'extrémité interne de la vis émerge de l'extrémité interne du tube de façon à réaliser une liaison vis/écrou avec un écrou 28 rapporté contre le tube. La vis 24 forme l'unique pied de l'organe de sertissage 20.  Each member 20 comprises in this case a screw 24 passing through the tube so that a head 26 of the screw protrudes from the contour of the outer end of the tube in radial direction and that the inner end of the screw emerges from the internal end of the tube so as to make a connection screw / nut with a nut 28 attached to the tube. The screw 24 forms the sole foot of the crimping member 20.
La tête 26 de chaque organe peut prendre des formes variées. Ainsi, sur la bague illustrée, certaines têtes 26 ont une forme de disque ou de galette tandis que d'autres ont une forme d'étoile. Cette dernière forme permet à la tête de s'étendre plus loin sur chacune des pierres qu'elle maintient. Chaque tête 26 comprend elle- même dans le présent exemple une pierre 28 visible sur l'extérieur du bijou, et logée dans la partie supérieure de la tête.  The head 26 of each organ can take various forms. Thus, on the ring illustrated, some heads 26 have a disc or slab shape while others have a star shape. This last form allows the head to extend further on each of the stones it maintains. Each head 26 itself comprises in this example a stone 28 visible on the outside of the jewel, and housed in the upper part of the head.
Les pierres sont tronquées à chaque coin pour dégager au niveau du feuilletis un espace suffisant pour le passage de la partie supérieure du tube.  The stones are truncated at each corner to release at the level of the flats a sufficient space for the passage of the upper part of the tube.
La tête 26 vient en contact avec toutes les pierres 6 logées dans les alvéoles contiguës au nœud associé. C'est ainsi que pour les organes 20 occupant le bord 23 de l'ensemble des pierres, la tête 26 vient en contact avec deux ou trois des pierres 6. Pour les autres organes 20, la tête 26 vient en contact dans ce mode de réalisation avec toutes les pierres dont les arêtes convergent vers ces organes et qui peuvent être au nombre de cinq ou de six.  The head 26 comes into contact with all the stones 6 housed in the cells contiguous to the associated node. Thus, for the members 20 occupying the edge 23 of all the stones, the head 26 comes into contact with two or three of the stones 6. For the other members 20, the head 26 comes into contact in this mode of realization with all the stones whose edges converge towards these organs and which can be five or six in number.
De façon générale, le feuilletis 12 des pierres vient au contact du tube, et la tête de la vis vient au contact des rondistes 11 , assurant de cette façon un serrage des pierres contre l'armature.  In general, the laminate 12 of the stones comes into contact with the tube, and the head of the screw comes into contact with the rounders 11, thereby ensuring a tightening of the stones against the frame.
Ainsi reçues dans les alvéoles et immobilisées par les organes de sertissage, les pierres 6 sont disposées de sorte que les arêtes rectilignes 29 des feuilletis s'étendent respectivement en regard les unes des autres et parallèlement les unes aux autres en étant même contiguës. Les pierres forment ainsi une mosaïque qui constitue une surface continue ou quasi-continue qui dissimule entièrement l'armature sous les pierres, les seuls éléments de la monture visibles depuis la face extérieure du bijou présentant les pierres étant les organes 20. De plus, compte tenu de l'inclinaison des alvéoles, quel que soit l'organe 20 considéré, les pierres en contact avec cet organe présentent des tables 8 inclinées les unes par rapport aux autres en formant un angle correspondant à celui des alvéoles qui portent ces pierres. On mesure ici l'angle formé par deux tables intégralement à l'extérieur des pierres, comme illustré. Thus received in the cells and immobilized by the crimping members, the stones 6 are arranged so that the rectilinear edges 29 of the layers extend respectively facing each other and parallel to each other being even contiguous. The stones thus form a mosaic which constitutes a continuous or quasi-continuous surface which completely conceals the frame under the stones, the only elements of the frame visible from the external face of the jewel presenting the stones being the organs. In addition, given the inclination of the cells, regardless of the member 20 considered, the stones in contact with this member have tables 8 inclined relative to each other at an angle corresponding to that of the cells which carry these stones. Here we measure the angle formed by two tables integrally on the outside of the stones, as illustrated.
Sur la figure 10 à droite, les pierres peuvent avoir une configuration en bosse ou en relief dans laquelle cet angle a, qui correspond à celui des alvéoles, est supérieur à 180°. Il est par exemple égal à 220 ou 240°, ces valeurs n'étant pas limitatives. La tête de vis vient alors en appui contre la zone inférieure des rondistes.  In Figure 10 to the right, the stones may have a bump or raised configuration in which this angle, which corresponds to that of the cells, is greater than 180 °. It is for example equal to 220 or 240 °, these values not being limiting. The screw head then bears against the lower zone of the rondistes.
Dans le montage illustré à gauche sur la figure 10, les pierres ont une configuration en creux, en dépression ou encore en angle rentrant. Les tables forment alors un angle b qui est inférieur à 180° et égal par exemple à 135 ou 150°, sans que ces valeurs soient limitatives. Dans ce cas, la tête de vis vient au contact de la zone supérieure des rondistes.  In the assembly illustrated on the left in FIG. 10, the stones have a recessed configuration, a depression or a re-entrant angle. The tables then form an angle b which is less than 180 ° and equal for example to 135 or 150 °, without these values being limiting. In this case, the screw head comes into contact with the upper zone of the rondistes.
Dans le présent mode de réalisation, la taille des pierres a été effectuée de sorte que la culasse 10 de chaque pierre a une forme dissymétrique par rapport à un axe 27 perpendiculaire à une table de la pierre et passant par le barycentre de sa table 8. Cette culasse s'étend donc davantage d'un côté de l'axe que de l'autre. Cette disposition permet, lorsque cela est préférable ou même nécessaire, de dégager un espace suffisant entre les pierres pour les branches, et également sous les branches pour permettre d'y loger le tube 22. La forme dissymétrique de la culasse facilite ainsi l'accostage des pierres adjacentes.  In the present embodiment, the size of the stones has been made so that the yoke 10 of each stone has an asymmetric shape with respect to an axis 27 perpendicular to a table of the stone and passing through the barycenter of its table 8. This yoke therefore extends more on one side of the axis than on the other. This arrangement allows, when it is preferable or even necessary, to clear a sufficient space between the stones for the branches, and also under the branches to allow to accommodate the tube 22. The asymmetrical shape of the yoke thus facilitates docking adjacent stones.
La partie tronquée du coin de chaque pierre s'étend intégralement sous la tête 26 de sorte qu'elle n'est pas visible depuis l'extérieur. Cette troncature permet de faire passer le tube et ainsi de réaliser un bon appui de la tête 26 contre la pierre. La troncature a ici une forme cylindrique à section circulaire dont le centre de courbure se situe hors de la pierre et passe par l'axe géométrique de la vis 24. Chaque organe exerce un appui uniformément réparti sur toutes les pierres avec lesquelles il est en contact.  The truncated portion of the corner of each stone extends completely under the head 26 so that it is not visible from the outside. This truncation allows to pass the tube and thus achieve a good support of the head 26 against the stone. The truncation here has a cylindrical shape with a circular section whose center of curvature lies outside the stone and passes through the geometric axis of the screw 24. Each member exerts a uniformly distributed support on all the stones with which it is in contact .
La bague illustrée aux figures 1 à 3 présente un aspect chahuté qui contribue à son esthétique particulière. Cet effet est obtenu par les caractéristiques suivantes : The ring illustrated in Figures 1 to 3 has a hung appearance that contributes to its particular aesthetic. This effect is obtained by the following characteristics:
- le caractère irrégulier du polygone formant la table et le feuilletis de chaque pierre, - the irregular nature of the polygon forming the table and the leaf of each stone,
- la dissymétrie du contour de chaque pierre,  - dissymmetry of the outline of each stone,
- la dissymétrie de la culasse,  - dissymmetry of the cylinder head,
- le caractère non superposable du contour des pierres, et - la coexistence sur la bague de configurations de pierres en bosse et de configurations de pierres en dépression. - the non-superimposable nature of the outline of the stones, and - the coexistence on the ring of configurations of stones in hump and configurations of stones in depression.
Chacune de ces caractéristiques permet d'obtenir cet effet mais leur coopération renforce ce dernier. Pour accroître l'effet chahuté, le bord 23 de l'ensemble formé par les pierres a la forme d'une ligne brisée. Le réseau formé par les branches n'est pas plan. Il en est de même pour la face externe de la bague formée par les tables des pierres.  Each of these characteristics makes it possible to obtain this effect, but their cooperation strengthens the latter. To increase the heckled effect, the edge 23 of the assembly formed by the stones has the form of a broken line. The network formed by the branches is not plane. It is the same for the outer face of the ring formed by stone tables.
Pour l'assemblage de la bague, on réalise la monture 4 avec son armature 13. On installe ensuite les pierres 6 dans leur alvéole 16 de destination. Puis, on introduit les organes de sertissage 24 dans les tubes 22 et on les immobilise au moyen des écrous 28 installés et manœuvrés depuis la partie interne de la bague.  For assembly of the ring, the frame 4 is made with its armature 13. The stones 6 are then installed in their cell 16 of destination. Then, the crimping members 24 are introduced into the tubes 22 and are immobilized by means of the nuts 28 installed and maneuvered from the inner part of the ring.
Comme on peut le voir sur les figures 1 et 2, la bague comprend en outre d'autres pierres 50 serties au moyen d'organes de sertissage classiques et disposées hors de l'ensemble formé par les saphirs, au delà du bord 23.  As can be seen in Figures 1 and 2, the ring further comprises other stones 50 crimped by means of conventional crimping members and arranged outside the assembly formed by the sapphires, beyond the edge 23.
L'invention offre une grande liberté dans la conception de la forme du bijou notamment en permettant de positionner deux pierres contigues d'une façon indépendante du positionnement des pierres voisines. Elle permet de dissimuler à la vue l'armature supportant les pierres et de se dispenser des rails de sertissage.  The invention offers great freedom in the design of the shape of the jewel including allowing to position two contiguous stones in a manner independent of the positioning of neighboring stones. It allows to hide the frame supporting the stones and to dispense with the crimping rails.
L'invention est applicable à tout type de matériau tel que notamment des diamants, des rubis, des émeraudes, ou encore de la céramique, du béton, du bois, etc.  The invention is applicable to any type of material such as diamonds, rubies, emeralds, or ceramics, concrete, wood, etc.
Bien entendu, on pourra apporter à l'invention de nombreuses modifications sans sortir du cadre de celle-ci.  Of course, we can bring to the invention many changes without departing from the scope thereof.
On pourrait donner au contours des pierres une forme autre qu'une forme triangulaire. Il pourrait s'agir par exemple d'une forme à quatre, cinq ou six côtés rectilignes ou incurvés.  The outlines of the stones could be given a shape other than a triangular shape. It could be for example a form with four, five or six sides rectilinear or curved.
Les têtes des organes de sertissage pourraient avoir une forme de fleur, par exemple de camélia.  The heads of the crimping members could have a flower shape, for example of camellia.
On pourrait réaliser les organes de sertissage non sous la forme de vis mais sous celle de rivets emmanchés à force dans la monture.  The crimping members could be made not in the form of screws but in the form of rivets pressed into the frame.
On pourrait prévoir qu'un organe de maintien est en contact avec sept pierres simultanément ou davantage.  It could be provided that a holding member is in contact with seven stones simultaneously or more.
On pourrait donner à l'armature et à la face de l'ensemble des pierres une forme générale de dôme, par exemple sphérique ou ovoïde, ou encore une forme ondulée présentant des vagues.  We could give the frame and the face of all stones a general shape of a dome, for example spherical or ovoid, or a wavy shape with waves.
