Definitions

  • the present invention generally relates to a portable object that has a decorative effect.
  • Said object comprises at least one decorative transparent or semi-transparent element arranged and held on a support.
  • Said element having the shape and appearance of a gemstone.
  • the invention relates to a portable object that overcomes the aforementioned disadvantages of the prior art by providing an arrangement with a decorative element producing a brightness even when the amount of ambient light passing through the element becomes low, or even zero.
  • the invention relates to a portable object with decorative effect cited above which is characterized in that a layer of luminescent material is disposed at least between a portion of the holding support and the decorative element to produce an effect visual through the element by refraction and reflection of the light passing through it.
  • One of the advantages of the present invention is to have a portable object having an improved aesthetic in that this aesthetic is both visible in the light of day but also when the ambient brightness decreases. This characteristic is due to the layer of luminescent material.
  • this layer of luminescent material is located between each decorative element and the bottom of the holding support thus, under low light environment, to generate light to illuminate the decorative elements such as precious stones or other rhinestones. This then provides an additional aesthetic effect.
  • Another advantage of the present invention is that these decorative elements, whose aesthetic effect is perceived even in low light, can be used as an indicator. Indeed, if these decorative elements are arranged at key locations of the watch case, they can then serve as a landmark for the indication of time and the association with a needle, also provided with this luminescent material , allows viewing the time in low light environment while enjoying an aesthetic effect.
  • Another example could be to arrange the decorative elements to form a figure or a sign that would illuminate once the brightness is low such as a constellation for example.
  • the figure 1 represents a preferred form of the portable object according to the present invention, that is to say in the form of a watch and more particularly a watch dial 1. It is obvious that other forms are possible such as jewelry: rings, necklaces, bracelets or even portable objects such as telephones or other.
  • the dial is attached to the watch's plate and is used for display. Indeed, this piece that is the dial, can include the markings indicating the hours, minutes and seconds, but also the days and so on.
  • the dial may also include a number of windows by which the date indications or moon phases are indicated.
  • Dial 1 according to the figure 1 has a main opening for the passage of the axes of the needles (not shown) of the watch.
  • a series of decorative elements 2 arranged to form an aesthetic pattern.
  • the series of decorative elements takes the form of a zodiacal constellation, but it goes without saying that any motif can be realized.
  • another embodiment may be to use these decorative elements 2 for the indication of hours or other.
  • These decorative elements 2 are represented in detail in Figures 2, 3 and 4 .
  • These decorative elements 2 are generally transparent or semi-transparent material having a size similar to that of diamonds, or any other size offering an attractive aesthetic appearance. Possible stone sizes are glossy or wand type or other multi-faceted types.
  • This decorative element thus comprises a yoke 3, in which are cut several facets, and a crown 4 also faceted and surmounted by a table 5.
  • the decorative element 2 may be preferably constituted by a piece of glass, crystal, transparent plastic or rhinestones. None, however, excludes the use of a gloss.
  • This decorative element 2 is housed in a support 6 and then fixed so as not to leave said support.
  • the support 6 takes the form of a cap, whose bottom 8 is flat and the side wall 7, circular cylindrical.
  • the upper edge 9 of the wall 7 is folded over the laminate 4a of the decorative element 2. It thus constitutes a crimp of the latter in the cap 6, which holds it firmly in place.
  • supports 6 may include several decorative elements 2 are also possible.
  • any means for holding said decorative element 2 to the support 6 can be envisaged.
  • the cap 6 is arranged to include a layer of luminescent material 10. Indeed, it is expected that a layer of luminescent material 10 is deposited in the bottom 8 of the cap . Thus the luminescent material can emit light which will then pass through the decorative element 2 and by reflection and refraction, give it an additional brightness.
  • a layer of luminescent material 10 can be deposited in addition to or only on the internal faces of the walls 7 of the cap 6, as shown in FIG. figure 4 , respectively to increase the amount of light that will pass through the element 2 or simply to modify the diffusion of said emitted light.
  • the luminescent material is expected to be a phosphorescent material. Indeed, such a material is very practical in that in the light of day, there is no need to artificially increase the brightness of the decorative element 2, daylight ample amply. But when the ambient brightness drops, daylight becomes insufficient to maintain the brightness of said element 2. For this a phosphorescent material takes all its value since said material can accumulate daylight when the ambient light is good and when it decreases, the phosphorescent material will emit light to fill this decrease. This then preserves the brightness of the decorative element 2 thus improving the aesthetic rendering.
  • LUMINOVA® may be chosen as a phosphorescent material which has the characteristic of having to emit a brighter light and this, for a longer period, while being devoid of radioactive chemical components. .
  • the cap 6 is made so that a decorative element cut to take the appearance and shape of a gemstone can enter entirely into said cap 6 as shown in FIG. figure 3 . Nevertheless for a saving of space, it can be expected that the decorative element 2 is truncated. In the case of a cut element such as a diamond, it would be the yoke 3 of said element which would be truncated. In this configuration, it will be ensured that the surface 11 thus formed by this truncation is located at a distance from the layer 10 of luminescent material.
  • This configuration then allows a better diffusion of the light emitted by the luminescent material and therefore a stronger visual effect compared to a configuration where the truncated surface 11 of the decorative element 2 would be directly in contact with said layer of material 10.
  • a distance of between 0 mm and 0.25 mm provides an optimal visual effect.
  • the assembly comprising the cap on which is crimped the decorative element 2, is fixed to the dial by gluing the bottom of the cap 6 at the bottom of the housing.
  • the diameter of the cap 6 may be slightly less than that of the housing.
  • the cap 6, in which the decorative element 1 is crimped is directly integrated into the dial during its manufacture thus avoiding the problems of tension between the different parts.
  • the description above concerned the case where the decorative elements 2 are located on the dial of a watch, but it is possible that these elements 2 are also integrated into the case of the watch and therefore, no significant change is expected.
