Description

La présente invention concerne un élément décoratif portatif associant plusieurs éléments, pouvant présenter des aspects différents et/ou être réalisés dans des matériaux différents.The present invention relates to a portable decorative element combining several elements, which may have different aspects and / or be made of different materials.

Les procédés modernes de découpe de feuilles de métaux permettent de réaliser à partir de métaux comme de l'acier, du laiton, du cuivre, de l'aluminium, de l'argent ou de l'or, des découpes variées et fines comprenant en particulier des perçages de différentes formes, pour réaliser des bijoux ou des accessoires de mode.The modern processes for cutting metal sheets make it possible to produce, from metals such as steel, brass, copper, aluminum, silver or gold, various and fine cuts comprising in particular particular holes of different shapes, to make jewelry or fashion accessories.

Il est connu de fixer de manière définitive sur la face intérieure de la tôle découpée une garniture légèrement souple apparaissant au travers des ouvertures de cette tôle, présentant un aspect ainsi que des couleurs différents afin de réaliser un effet esthétique décoratif.It is known to fix permanently on the inner face of the cut sheet a slightly flexible lining appearing through the openings of this sheet, having a different appearance and colors to achieve a decorative aesthetic effect.

De préférence on utilise pour la garniture intérieure des matériaux nobles, comme des tissus naturels ou synthétiques de qualité, ou du cuir. On a alors la tôle rigide donnant la forme générale de l'élément décoratif, ainsi qu'un aspect extérieur résistant à l'usure, qui peut être brillant, satiné ou mat, et la garniture intérieure formant un matériau plus souple et plus chaleureux, dont la nature, l'aspect et la couleur tranche sur le métal.Preferably for the interior lining noble materials, such as natural or synthetic fabrics of quality, or leather. We then have the rigid sheet giving the general shape of the decorative element, as well as an external appearance resistant to wear, which can be shiny, satin or matte, and the inner lining forming a softer and more warm material, whose nature, appearance and color contrast with the metal.

On peut réaliser notamment des bracelets, des broches, des pendentifs d'oreilles ou des sautoirs, comprenant une feuille de métal découpée formant une structure rigide présentant un galbe particulier suivant sa fonction. On réalise par exemple des bracelets formés dans une bande de tôle enroulée, présentant une ouverture permettant de passer de manière ajustée le poignet.In particular, bracelets, broaches, earrings or jumpers may be made comprising a cut metal sheet forming a rigid structure having a particular shape according to its function. Bracelets formed in a rolled sheet metal strip, for example, have an opening allowing the wrist to be adjusted in a neat manner.

La garniture peut recevoir des éléments additionnels pour assurer en particulier la fonction de fixation ou de portage, comme un cordon ou une chaîne passant autour du cou pour un sautoir, ou une épingle pour l'accrochage d'une broche sur un habit.The lining may receive additional elements to ensure in particular the fastening or carrying function, such as a cord or a chain passing around the neck for a jumper, or a pin for attaching a pin to a coat.

Pour des bijoux directement en contact avec la peau comme les bracelets, la garniture intérieure plus souple donne un contact plus agréable sur cette peau.For jewelry directly in contact with the skin such as bracelets, the softer inner lining gives a more pleasant touch on this skin.

Toutefois un problème qui se pose avec ce type d'élément décoratif, est qu'avec une garniture intérieure fixée de manière permanente sur la tôle par différents moyens pour assurer un bon maintien ainsi qu'un placage sous la tôle, on ne peut alors pas procéder de manière simple et rapide au changement de cette garniture.However, a problem that arises with this type of decorative element, is that with an interior liner permanently fixed to the sheet by various means to ensure good maintenance and a veneer under the sheet, then we can not proceed quickly and easily to the change of this filling.

De plus un détachement de la garniture nécessite généralement l'utilisation d'outillage spécialisé, pour retirer notamment des vis de serrage ou des rivets, et peut causer un endommagement des éléments. L'opération de démontage et de remontage peut être lente et délicate pour conserver un aspect et une finition impeccable afin de justifier de la fonction décorative.In addition, detachment of the lining generally requires the use of specialized tools, in particular to remove clamping screws or rivets, and may cause damage to the elements. The disassembly and reassembly operation can be slow and delicate to maintain an impeccable appearance and finish to justify the decorative function.

On ne peut alors pas réaliser rapidement des variantes du même bijou ou élément décoratif, en changeant la garniture ou la tôle décorative, alors qu'on cherche de plus en plus à personnaliser les accessoires de mode pour les adapter par exemple aux habits portés, aux types d'activités prévues, ou à un besoin de renouvellement fréquent pour ne pas répéter une même décoration.We can not quickly make variants of the same jewel or decorative element, changing the trim or the decorative sheet, while we seek more and more to customize the fashion accessories to adapt for example to worn clothes, to types of activities planned, or a need for frequent renewal so as not to repeat the same decoration.

La présente invention a notamment pour but d'éviter ces inconvénients de la technique antérieure et de permettre une fixation rapide, réversible, sans pièce de fixation rapportée, discrète d'une garniture de décoration sous une structure rigide d'un élément décoratif tel qu'un bijou.The present invention is intended in particular to avoid these drawbacks of the prior art and to allow quick fixing, reversible, without reported attachment part, discrete decoration trim under a rigid structure of a decorative element such as a jewel.

On entend par fixation réversible, une fixation pouvant être faite et défaite manuellement sans outil. Au contraire, on entend par fixation permanente, une fixation nécessitant un outil pour être faite ou défaite (sertissage, vissage, collage, etc.). Ainsi, un moyen de fixation permettant une fixation réversible manuelle est qualifié, dans le présent texte, de « moyen de fixation réversible ».Reversible fastening means a fastener that can be made and defeated manually without tools. On the contrary, by fixation permanent, a fixation requiring a tool to be made or defeated (crimping, screwing, gluing, etc.). Thus, a fastening means for a manual reversible attachment is described in the present text as "reversible fastening means".

La présente invention propose à cet effet un élément décoratif portatif comportant une structure rigide présentant des perçages décoratifs, recevant sur sa face arrière, en position d'utilisation, une garniture formant une plaque visible au travers de ces perçages, apte à être cintrée de manière élastique. Selon l'invention, la face arrière de la structure rigide comprend au moins deux épaulements opposés l'un par rapport à l'autre et contre lesquels, en position d'utilisation, des bords de la garniture sont appuyés de manière élastique et réversible afin d'appliquer un serrage de cette garniture réalisant son placage contre la face arrière de la structure.The present invention proposes for this purpose a portable decorative element comprising a rigid structure having decorative holes, receiving on its rear face, in the use position, a lining forming a visible plate through these bores, adapted to be bent in a manner elastic. According to the invention, the rear face of the rigid structure comprises at least two opposite shoulders relative to each other and against which, in the use position, the edges of the lining are resiliently and reversibly supported so as to to apply a tightening of this lining performing its plating against the rear face of the structure.

Selon d'autres modes de réalisation, qui peuvent être combinés entre eux :

  • la structure rigide peut être réalisée dans une tôle métallique présentant des perçages décoratifs ;
  • la face arrière de la structure rigide peut être cintrée et comprendre deux extrémités libres, les épaulements étant agencés auxdites extrémités libres afin de constituer, en position d'utilisation, un moyen de blocage longitudinal réversible de la garniture ;
  • la face arrière peut comporter en outre des pattes latérales d'appui de bords de la garniture ;
  • la face arrière peut comporter en outre des épaulements latéraux d'appui de bords de la garniture ;
  • la face arrière peut comprendre une cavité de profondeur inférieure à une épaisseur de la structure rigide et délimitée par un rebord circonférentiel formant épaulement, la cavité étant destinée à recevoir la garniture de sorte qu'en position d'utilisation, des bords de la garniture sont appuyés de manière élastique et réversible contre le rebord de la cavité afin d'appliquer un serrage de cette garniture réalisant son placage contre la face arrière de la structure ;
  • une distance entre deux épaulements opposés, suivant le contour de la face arrière de la structure, peut être inférieure à la distance correspondante sur la garniture de manière à assurer son serrage et son placage contre la face arrière de la structure par ces épaulements ;
  • l'élément décoratif peut constituer une bague comprenant une bande rigide cintrée sensiblement suivant un arc de cercle, présentant une ouverture pour le passage d'un doigt ; et/ou
  • la garniture peut comporter deux faces de couleurs différentes, prévues pour être tournées alternativement vers la structure.
According to other embodiments, which can be combined with one another:
  • the rigid structure can be made in a metal sheet having decorative holes;
  • the rear face of the rigid structure can be bent and comprise two free ends, the shoulders being arranged at said free ends to form, in the use position, a reversible longitudinal locking means of the liner;
  • the rear face may further comprise lateral lugs for bearing edges of the liner;
  • the rear face may further comprise lateral shoulders bearing edges of the liner;
  • the rear face may comprise a cavity of depth less than a thickness of the rigid structure and defined by a circumferential flange forming a shoulder, the cavity being intended to receive the filling so that in the use position, the edges of the liner are supported resiliently and reversibly against the rim of the cavity to apply a clamping of this lining performing its plating against the rear face of the structure;
  • a distance between two opposite shoulders, following the contour of the rear face of the structure, may be less than the corresponding distance on the lining so as to ensure its clamping and its plating against the rear face of the structure by these shoulders;
  • the decorative element may constitute a ring comprising a rigid band bent substantially in a circular arc, having an opening for the passage of a finger; and or
  • the lining may comprise two faces of different colors, designed to be rotated alternately towards the structure.

Un avantage de cet élément décoratif est que les épaulements appliquant un serrage de la garniture, assurent une contrainte sur cette garniture permettant de la maintenir sans jeu sous la structure rigide et donc sans usure, et génèrent une pression qui tend quand la garniture est cintrée à repousser la garniture vers l'extérieur ce qui donne son placage sur la face arrière assurant l'effet esthétique recherché.An advantage of this decorative element is that the shoulders applying a tightening of the lining, provide a stress on the liner to maintain it without play under the rigid structure and therefore without wear, and generate a pressure that tends when the liner is bent to push the trim outward which gives its plating on the back side ensuring the desired aesthetic effect.

En outre, les moyens de fixation sont invisibles de l'extérieur lorsque le bijou est porté. De plus, les épaulements épousant la forme des bords de la garniture, ils sont très discrets même lorsque le bijou n'est pas porté, de sorte que l'utilisateur ne voit pas immédiatement comment est fixé la garniture.In addition, the fastening means are invisible from the outside when the jewel is worn. In addition, the shoulders conform to the shape of the edges of the trim, they are very discreet even when the jewel is not worn, so that the user does not see immediately how is fixed the trim.

On peut alors de manière simple et rapide, sans endommager aucun composant, déboîter la garniture pour la retirer et la remplacer par une autre. On peut aussi utiliser cette garniture avec une autre structure métallique.It can then simply and quickly, without damaging any component, disengage the seal to remove it and replace it with another. This trim can also be used with another metal structure.

L'invention a également pour objet un kit de décoration comprenant un élément décoratif précédent et une pluralité de garnitures décoratives différentes.The invention also relates to a decoration kit comprising a previous decorative element and a plurality of different decorative fittings.

La figure 1 présente une bague 100 comportant une structure rigide 10 formée dans une bande de tôle métallique découpée pour présenter des perçages décoratifs 1 1. La structure rigide 10 est cintrée pour former une boucle, fermée ou non, et présentant une ouverture pour le passage d'un doigt. Une structure similaire pourrait être utilisée pour réaliser un bracelet.The figure 1 has a ring 100 having a rigid structure 10 formed in a strip of metal sheet cut to present decorative holes 1 1. The rigid structure 10 is bent to form a loop, closed or not, and having an opening for the passage of a finger. A similar structure could be used to make a bracelet.

Divers métaux peuvent être utilisés tels que l'acier, du cuivre, de l'argent, de l'or, de l'aluminium, ou un alliage d'un ou plusieurs de ces métaux.Various metals can be used such as steel, copper, silver, gold, aluminum, or an alloy of one or more of these metals.

D'autres matériaux peuvent être utilisés pour réaliser la structure rigide 10, comme par exemple du bois, ou un polymère rigide.Other materials can be used to make the rigid structure 10, such as wood, or a rigid polymer.

Les perçages décoratifs 11 peuvent être obtenu par découpage, moulage, ou par la fixation non bord à bord de pièces pleine afin de laisser entre elles des espaces vides. Par exemple, on peut souder des plaques entre elles pour obtenir la structure rigide ajourée de l'invention.The decorative holes 11 may be obtained by cutting, molding, or by the non-edge binding full parts to leave empty spaces between them. For example, one can weld plates together to obtain the perforated rigid structure of the invention.

Selon l'invention, une garniture 20 est plaquée à l'intérieur de la structure métallique 10 sur sa face arrière 12 et contre au moins deux épaulements 14 portés par la face arrière 12. En particulier, les épaulements 14 sont agencés de manière opposés le long de l'axe longitudinal de la structure rigide, de préférence aux extrémités libres 15 de la structure 10 afin de constituer, en position d'utilisation, un moyen de blocage longitudinal réversible de la garniture 20.According to the invention, a lining 20 is pressed inside the metal structure 10 on its rear face 12 and against at least two shoulders 14 carried by the rear face 12. In particular, the shoulders 14 are arranged in opposite directions on the along the longitudinal axis of the rigid structure, preferably at the free ends 15 of the structure 10 so as to constitute, in the position of use, a reversible longitudinal locking means of the lining 20.

Dans le mode de réalisation des figures 1 2 et 4, la face arrière 12 comporte également des épaulements latéraux 16 d'appui des bords longitudinaux 22 de la garniture 20, formant des moyens de maintien latéral de la garniture 20.In the embodiment of Figures 1 2 and 4 the rear face 12 also has lateral shoulders 16 for supporting the longitudinal edges 22 of the lining 20, forming lateral holding means for the lining 20.

Plus précisément, dans ce mode de réalisation, la face arrière 12 comprend une cavité 17, de forme identique à celle de la garniture 20 (voir figure 3), et de profondeur E0 inférieure à une épaisseur E de la structure rigide. Par exemple, la structure rigide présente une épaisseur de 1,2 millimètre et la cavité ne présente qu'une profondeur de 0,6 millimètres.More specifically, in this embodiment, the rear face 12 comprises a cavity 17, of identical shape to that of the lining 20 (see figure 3 ), and depth E0 less than a thickness E of the rigid structure. For example, the rigid structure has a thickness of 1.2 millimeters and the cavity has a depth of only 0.6 millimeters.

La cavité 17 est ainsi délimitée au fond par la face arrière 12, et latéralement par un rebord circonférentiel formant épaulement 14-16. Dans l'exemple numérique donné, ces épaulements 14-16 mesurent donc 0,6 millimètres de haut.The cavity 17 is thus delimited at the bottom by the rear face 12, and laterally by a circumferential flange forming a shoulder 14-16. In the given numerical example, these shoulders 14-16 are therefore 0.6 millimeters high.

En d'autres termes, les épaulements 14-16 sont constitués par le bord d'une surépaisseur de matière par rapport à l'épaisseur de matière au sein de la cavité 17.In other words, the shoulders 14-16 are constituted by the edge of an extra thickness of material relative to the thickness of material within the cavity 17.

Dans le mode de réalisation illustré en figure 3, la garniture 20 présente une forme sensiblement en rectangle.In the embodiment illustrated in figure 3 , the liner 20 has a substantially rectangular shape.

Plus généralement, les dimensions de la cavité 17 et de la garniture 20 sont telles qu'en position d'utilisation, les bords transversaux 21 et longitudinaux 22 de la garniture 20 sont appuyés en force, de manière élastique et réversible, contre le rebord 14-16 de la cavité afin d'appliquer un serrage de cette garniture réalisant son placage contre la face arrière 12 de la structure 10. Cet agencement est représenté en figure 10 qui illustre une coupe transversale de la bague 100 selon la ligne B-B de la figure 1.More generally, the dimensions of the cavity 17 and the lining 20 are such that, in the position of use, the transverse and longitudinal edges 22 of the lining 20 are spring-loaded resiliently and reversibly against the flange 14. -16 of the cavity in order to apply a tightening of this lining performing its plating against the rear face 12 of the structure 10. This arrangement is shown in FIG. figure 10 which illustrates a cross section of the ring 100 along the line BB of the figure 1 .

De même, comme le montre la figure 1, les bords transversaux 21 sont en appui de manière élastique et réversible contre les deux épaulements 14 (un seul est visible sur la figure 1) portés par la face arrière 12 de la structure 10, ce qui permet d'appliquer un serrage de cette garniture 20 réalisant son placage contre la face arrière 12 de la structure 10.Similarly, as shown in figure 1 , the transverse edges 21 bear elastically and reversibly against the two shoulders 14 (only one is visible on the figure 1 ) carried by the rear face 12 of the structure 10, which makes it possible to apply a tightening of this lining 20 effecting its plating against the rear face 12 of the structure 10.

Pour assurer le serrage et le placage de la garniture 20 contre la face arrière 12 de la structure 10 par les épaulements 14, la distance D1 entre deux épaulements 14 opposés, suivant le contour de la face arrière de la structure rigide 10, est juste inférieure à la distance D2 correspondante sur la garniture 20 (voir figure 3).To ensure the tightening and the plating of the lining 20 against the rear face 12 of the structure 10 by the shoulders 14, the distance D1 between two opposite shoulders 14, following the contour of the rear face of the rigid structure 10, is just inferior at the corresponding distance D2 on the lining 20 (see figure 3 ).

Avantageusement, la garniture est en cuir ou comporte deux faces de cuir. Les faces de cuir constituent un matériau assurant une bonne durabilité ainsi qu'un contact agréable avec la peau.Advantageously, the trim is leather or has two leather faces. The leather faces are a material ensuring good durability and a pleasant contact with the skin.

Alternativement, la garniture peut être en matériau synthétique, voire en métal sous forme d'une feuille métallique (acier titane).Alternatively, the lining may be of synthetic material, or even metal in the form of a metal sheet (titanium steel).

Ce qui importe, c'est que la combinaison matériau/épaisseur de la garniture permette un cintrage élastique et non plastique de la garniture.What is important is that the material / thickness combination of the lining allows for elastic and non-plastic bending of the liner.

Pour cela, la garniture doit présenter une mémoire de forme qui lui permet de reprendre sa forme après un cintrage.For this, the liner must have a shape memory that allows it to resume its shape after bending.

Par exemple, on choisit un cuir légèrement souple, présentant une élasticité avec une mémoire de forme qui lui permet de reprendre sa forme après un cintrage. Si nécessaire on peut réaliser un empilage de cuirs assemblés entre eux donnant une semi rigidité à la garniture, avec par exemple une âme flexible centrale présentant une épaisseur d'environ 1/10mm.For example, we choose a slightly soft leather, having elasticity with a shape memory that allows it to resume its shape after bending. If necessary, it is possible to make a stack of leathers joined together giving a semi stiffness to the lining, with for example a central flexible core having a thickness of approximately 1 / 10mm.

De préférence, la garniture comporte deux faces de couleurs différentes, prévues pour être tournées alternativement vers la structure. On peut ainsi rapidement avec l'achat d'une seule garniture, bénéficier d'un élément décoratif présentant deux aspects différents.Preferably, the lining comprises two faces of different colors, designed to be turned alternately towards the structure. One can thus quickly with the purchase of a single trim, benefit from a decorative element having two different aspects.

Alternativement aux épaulements latéraux 16 creusés dans l'épaisseur de la structure rigide, la face arrière 12 peut supporter, comme illustré en figure 11, des pattes latérales 18 d'appui de bords de la garniture 20, constituant ainsi des moyens de maintien latéral ponctuels (et non continu comme dans les figures 1 et 2) de la garniture 20. Ces pattes latérales 18 peuvent être constituées avantageusement par le pliage de la tôle de la structure rigide.Alternatively to the lateral shoulders 16 dug in the thickness of the rigid structure, the rear face 12 can support, as illustrated in FIG. figure 11 , lateral lugs 18 for supporting the edges of the lining 20, thus constituting one-sided lateral retention means (and not continuous as in the Figures 1 and 2 ) of the liner 20. These side lugs 18 may advantageously be constituted by the folding of the sheet of the rigid structure.

Ces moyens de maintien latéral de la garniture permettent un maintien en position précis de la garniture en évitant que la garniture ne glisse hors de la structure rigide sous l'effet des mouvements de l'utilisateur.These means for lateral support of the lining allow the lining to be maintained in precise position while preventing the lining from sliding off the rigid structure under the effect of the movements of the user.

Cependant, dans certains cas (par exemple lorsqu'il s'agit d'une bague), ces moyens de maintien latéral ne sont forcément nécessaires (la bague bouge peu car elle est généralement bien ajustée sur le doigt).However, in some cases (for example when it is a ring), these lateral holding means are necessarily necessary (the ring moves little because it is generally well adjusted on the finger).

Ainsi, la face arrière 12 peut ne comporter aucun épaulement latéral 16 et aucune patte latérale 18.Thus, the rear face 12 may have no lateral shoulder 16 and no lateral leg 18.

Ce mode de réalisation est illustré en coupe longitudinal à la figure 5. La garniture 20 (non illustrée sur cette figure) n'est alors maintenu que selon la direction longitudinale par les épaulements 14.This embodiment is illustrated in longitudinal section at the figure 5 . The lining 20 (not shown in this figure) is then maintained only in the longitudinal direction by the shoulders 14.

Dans ce cas, les bords longitudinaux 22 de la garniture 20 affleurent avantageusement les bords latéraux 13 de la structure rigide 10 lorsque la garniture est plaquée à l'intérieur de la structure métallique 2 sur sa face arrière.In this case, the longitudinal edges 22 of the gasket 20 are advantageously flush with the lateral edges 13 of the rigid structure 10 when the gasket is pressed inside the metal structure 2 on its rear face.

Ainsi, d'une manière générale, selon l'invention, la garniture 20 forme une plaque qui peut être cintrée de manière élastique, en appui contraint à l'intérieur de la structure 10 sur deux épaulements 14 disposés chacun dans l'axe longitudinal de la bande, près d'une extrémité de cette bande.Thus, in a general manner, according to the invention, the lining 20 forms a plate which can be bent in an elastic manner, in constrained support inside the structure 10 on two shoulders 14 each arranged in the longitudinal axis of the band near one end of this band.

Ainsi, en utilisation, la garniture peut se bomber et être appliquée élastiquement en force contre la structure rigide par le coincement contre les épaulements 14.Thus, in use, the lining can bulge and be elastically applied in force against the rigid structure by wedging against the shoulders 14.

En d'autres termes, la garniture 20 est arc-boutée sur les épaulements 14 et contre la face arrière 12 de la structure rigide 10.In other words, the gasket 20 is braced on the shoulders 14 and against the rear face 12 of the rigid structure 10.

Plus généralement, les épaulements transversaux 14 (et les épaulements latéraux 16 ou les pattes latérales 18 lorsqu'ils sont présents) appliquent un serrage de la garniture 20, ce qui applique une contrainte sur la garniture permettant de la maintenir sans jeu dans la structure et donc sans usure, et génèrent une pression qui tend à la cintrer et à la repousser vers la structure métallique, ce qui donne son placage sur la face arrière assurant l'effet esthétique recherché.More generally, the transverse shoulders 14 (and the lateral shoulders 16 or the lateral lugs 18 when present) apply a tightening of the lining 20, which applies a stress on the lining to maintain it without play in the structure and therefore without wear, and generate a pressure that tends to bend and push back to the metal structure, giving its plating on the back side ensuring the desired aesthetic effect.

Les figures 6, 7 et 8 illustrent trois modes de réalisations dans lesquels l'épaisseur de la garniture diffère.The Figures 6, 7 and 8 illustrate three embodiments in which the thickness of the pad differs.

Sur la figure 6, la garniture 20 présente une épaisseur E1 supérieure à la hauteur E0 des épaulements 14.On the figure 6 , the lining 20 has a thickness E1 greater than the height E0 of the shoulders 14.

Par exemple, la tôle de la structure 10 présente une épaisseur d'environ 1 à 2 millimètre, les épaulements 14 une hauteur E0 de 0,6 millimètre, et la garniture en cuir 20 une épaisseur E1 supérieure à 0,6 millimètre et qui peut aller jusqu'à environ 1 à 2 millimètres. Une trop grande surépaisseur de la garniture par rapport aux épaulements risque d'être inconfortable lorsqu'il s'agit d'une bague.For example, the sheet of the structure 10 has a thickness of about 1 to 2 millimeters, the shoulders 14 a height E0 of 0.6 millimeters, and the leather trim 20 a thickness E1 greater than 0.6 millimeters and which can go up to about 1 to 2 millimeters. Too much extra thickness of the liner relative to the shoulders may be uncomfortable when it comes to a ring.

Sur la figure 7, la garniture présente une épaisseur E2 égale à la hauteur E0 des épaulements 14 et sur la figure 8, la garniture présente une épaisseur E3 inférieure à la hauteur E0 des épaulements 14.On the figure 7 , the lining has a thickness E2 equal to the height E0 of the shoulders 14 and on the figure 8 , the lining has a thickness E3 less than the height E0 of the shoulders 14.

Dans tous les cas, l'appui de la garniture contre les épaulements 14 permet son plaquage contre la structure rigide 10 et son maintien en place.In all cases, the support of the seal against the shoulders 14 allows its plating against the rigid structure 10 and its retention in place.

Les figures 9a à 9c présentent le procédé d'assemblage de la garniture 20 sous la structure rigide 10, ici une bague.The Figures 9a to 9c present the method of assembling the liner 20 under the rigid structure 10, here a ring.

La figure 9a présente d'abord la mise en forme de la garniture 20, qui est cintrée et enroulée dans le sens de la flèche F1 pour présenter un diamètre un peu inférieur à celui de la structure 10 disposée en-dessous.The figure 9a first presents the shaping of the liner 20, which is curved and wound in the direction of the arrow F1 to have a diameter slightly smaller than that of the structure 10 disposed below.

La garniture 20 est alors descendue verticalement par un coulissement axial en la glissant dans la structure 10 et l'une des extrémités de la garniture 20 est mise en butée contre un épaulement 14 dans le sens de la flèche F2 (figure 9b).The lining 20 is then lowered vertically by an axial sliding by sliding it in the structure 10 and one of the ends of the lining 20 is abutted against a shoulder 14 in the direction of the arrow F2 ( figure 9b ).

Le cas échéant, la garniture 20 est également ajustée entre les deux épaulements transversaux 18, qui forment un calage latéral transversal.Where appropriate, the liner 20 is also fitted between the two transverse shoulders 18, which form a lateral transverse wedge.

La garniture présentant une longueur D2 juste supérieure à la longueur D1 entre deux épaulements 14, suivant le contour de la face arrière de la structure rigide 10, l'utilisateur comprime légèrement la garniture 20 dans le sens de la flèche F3 (ce qui a pour effet d'augmenter légèrement son épaisseur de E1 à E1'; voir figure 9b), puis il applique une pression F4 à l'intérieur de la garniture 4 afin d'engager la deuxième extrémité de la garniture contre le deuxième épaulement 14 dans le sens de la flèche F5 (figure 9c). Ce faisant, la garniture retrouve son épaisseur E1.The liner having a length D2 just greater than the length D1 between two shoulders 14, along the contour of the rear face of the rigid structure 10, the user slightly compresses the gasket 20 in the direction of the arrow F3 (which has the effect of slightly increasing its thickness from E1 to E1 '; figure 9b ), then it applies a pressure F4 inside the liner 4 in order to engage the second end of the liner against the second shoulder 14 in the direction of the arrow F5 ( Figure 9c ). In doing so, the filling regains its thickness E1.

En prévoyant une distance D2 entre les deux bords de la garniture 20 légèrement supérieure à la distance D1 disponible entre les deux épaulements 14 en suivant la courbure de la structure, on a une certaine pression longitudinale de cette garniture 20 dans la structure rigide 10 assurant un maintien et une absence de jeu en générant un serrage longitudinal (et éventuellement transversal en cas d'épaulements transversaux 16 ou de pattes latérales 18) et un placage de la garniture contre la face arrière de la structure par ces épaulements.By providing a distance D2 between the two edges of the lining 20 slightly greater than the distance D1 available between the two shoulders 14 by following the curvature of the structure, there is a certain longitudinal pressure of this lining 20 in the rigid structure 10 ensuring a maintaining and absence of play by generating a longitudinal clamping (and possibly transverse in the case of transverse shoulders 16 or side tabs 18) and a plating of the lining against the rear face of the structure by these shoulders.

De plus la mémoire de forme de la garniture 20 un peu élastique, tend à maintenir son écartement à l'intérieur de la structure 20, ce qui renforce son placage dans cette structure. Le montage de la garniture 20 simple et rapide, sans outillage, assure un positionnement efficace qui est maintenu dans le temps.In addition, the shape memory of the lining 20 is somewhat elastic, tends to maintain its spacing inside the structure 20, which reinforces its plating in this structure. The mounting of the trim 20 simple and fast, without tools, ensures effective positioning that is maintained over time.

On obtient un bijoux (bague ou bracelet) présentant en même temps l'aspect brillant et lumineux de la structure métallique 10, donnant par sa raideur la forme générale du bijou, ornée des perçages 11 au travers desquels apparaît la garniture en cuir 20 apportant de la couleur et de la douceur. En particulier on peut choisir un relief du cuir particulier donnant un aspect luxueux au bijou. La combinaison des deux technologies différentes, du métal orné de découpes présentant un éclat métallique et du cuir de la garniture, provenant du savoir-faire de deux métiers différents, donne un contraste apportant une esthétique moderne particulière.We obtain a jewelery (ring or bracelet) presenting at the same time the bright and luminous aspect of the metal structure 10, giving by its stiffness the general shape of the jewel, adorned with the holes 11 through which appears the leather trim 20 bringing color and sweetness. In particular one can choose a relief of the particular leather giving a luxurious aspect to the jewel. The combination of the two different technologies, the metal decorated with cuts with a metallic luster and the leather of the filling, coming from the know-how of two different trades, gives a contrast bringing a particular modern aesthetic.

Le démontage de la garniture 20 se faire simplement, soit en poussant sur une de ses extrémités pour la déboîter hors de l'épaulement 14 correspondant, soit en la poussant depuis la face extérieure de la structure rigide 10, à travers les orifices décoratifs 11. Cette poussée peut se faire soit avec un doigt soit avec une tige poussoir selon la taille des orifices décoratifs.The disassembly of the packing 20 can be done simply, either by pushing on one of its ends to dislodge it from the corresponding shoulder 14, or by pushing it from the outside of the rigid structure 10, through the decorative orifices 11. This thrust can be done either with a finger or with a push rod according to the size of the decorative openings.

On notera que ce démontage se fait sans modifier ni endommager aucune partie.It should be noted that this disassembly is done without modifying or damaging any part.

Avantageusement on dispose deux couleurs différentes sur les deux faces de la garniture 20 qui est réversible, ce qui permet à partir d'une même garniture montée dans un sens ou dans l'autre d'obtenir deux effets différents sur le même bijou.Advantageously there are two different colors on both sides of the liner 20 which is reversible, which allows from the same liner mounted in one direction or the other to obtain two different effects on the same jewel.

En variante on peut réaliser une garniture 20 présentant une surface formée par d'autres matériaux, comme du tissu naturel ou synthétique, ou une matière plastique. Si nécessaire on réalise un empilage de matériaux comprenant à l'intérieur une plaque présentant une élasticité pour assurer le cintrage et une mémoire de forme.Alternatively, a liner 20 may be provided having a surface formed by other materials, such as natural or synthetic fabric, or a plastics material. If necessary, a stack of materials is made comprising inside a plate having an elasticity to ensure bending and a shape memory.

On peut aussi réaliser une garniture 20 qui dépasse par endroit sur les côtés de la structure, pour être visible et donner une esthétique particulière.It is also possible to produce a lining which protrudes in places on the sides of the structure, to be visible and to give a particular aesthetic.

On peut prévoir une vente individuelle des garnitures 20 à part des structures rigides 10, ce qui permet alors de disposer à un coût réduit d'un grand choix d'aspects et de couleurs. On peut aussi retirer la garniture 20, pour porter uniquement la structure métallique 10 ce qui donne une variante de présentation supplémentaire. Le fait que les épaulements soient presque invisibles rend l'utilisation de la structure rigide seule agréable (sans risque de griffure avec un moyen de fixation type boutonnière) et discrète (les moyens de fixation n'apparaissent pas vu de l'extérieur).We can provide an individual sale of the fittings 20 apart from the rigid structures 10, which then allows to have at a reduced cost a large choice of aspects and colors. It is also possible to remove the lining 20, to carry only the metal structure 10 which gives an additional presentation variant. The fact that the shoulders are almost invisible makes the use of the rigid structure only pleasant (without risk of scratching with a buttonhole-type fastening means) and discreet (the fastening means do not appear from the outside).

On peut également vendre avantageusement un kit de décoration adapté à chaque structure rigide (un bracelet, une bague), et comprenant une pluralité de garnitures 20 différentes esthétiquement et un élément décoratif selon l'invention.One can also advantageously sell a decoration kit adapted to each rigid structure (a bracelet, a ring), and comprising a plurality of aesthetically different gaskets and a decorative element according to the invention.

La discrétion des épaulements et leur efficacité de maintien permet également de réduire l'épaisseur de la structure rigide 10, ce qui autorise la création de motifs plus détaillésThe discrete shoulders and their holding effectiveness also reduce the thickness of the rigid structure 10, which allows the creation of more detailed patterns.

Les découpes de la structure rigide 10 peuvent être également combinées avec des emboutissages ou des gravures sur la surface métallique de la tôle, pour apporter d'autres effets décoratifs, comme des écritures. La structure 10 présente une surface qui peut être polie, satinée ou mate, comprenant un métal ou un revêtement comportant une bonne tenue mécanique ainsi qu'une résistance à l'oxydation et aux agents chimiques de manière à conserver son aspect sans usure et sans altération. On peut en particulier réaliser un revêtement en or, en argent, en ruthénium, en palladium ou en rhodium.The cuts of the rigid structure 10 can also be combined with stampings or etchings on the metal surface of the sheet, to provide other decorative effects, such as writing. The structure 10 has a surface that can be polished, satin or matte, comprising a metal or a coating having good mechanical strength and resistance to oxidation and chemical agents so as to maintain its appearance without wear and without alteration . In particular, a coating can be made of gold, silver, ruthenium, palladium or rhodium.
