Definitions
- the present invention relates to a decorative piece.
- This decorative piece comprises a support in which at least one aesthetic element is crimped.
- the part is made of metal alloy and is machined for housing to appear.
- hooking means in the form of hooks are made.
- these hooks are made with the material forming the object, the object that is to say one-piece with the object.
- an aesthetic element such as a gemstone
- the latter is placed in a housing and the hooking means are folded so as to maintain said aesthetic element in the housing.
- This method of crimping is widely used to crimp gemstones on metal supports because the metal has an advantageous plastic deformation capacity. This ability is even more advantageous with precious metals such as gold because these precious metals are ductile and can be easily shaped.
- the cold plastic deformation of the crystalline metals is possible thanks to the movements of the dislocations present in the crystalline lattices.
- the elastic limit that is to say the stress beyond which a material starts to deform plastically, a crystalline alloy depends on the components of the latter as well as the thermomechanical history of the alloy.
- alloys having relatively low elastic limits are generally chosen to facilitate the work of the crimper.
- it is necessary that the alloy has sufficient elongation before rupture to be able to fold the hook means without breaking.
- this elongation is the consequence of both the elements present in the alloy and the thermomechanical history of the latter.
- the gold alloys used in watchmaking have an elastic limit of the order of 200-400 MPa and an elongation at break of 20-40%.
- Stainless steel type 1 .4435 has a yield strength of 200-300 MPa and an elongation at break of 25-45%.
- a disadvantage of this method is that it is confined to supports made of ductile metals or metal alloys.
- more and more timepieces are made in materials that do not exhibit plastic deformation, often hard and / or fragile, such as for example ceramic, silicon, composites or intermetallic alloys. Therefore, it is no longer possible to use the current method to crimp aesthetic elements such as precious stones.
- the invention relates to a decorative piece that overcomes the aforementioned drawbacks of the prior art by providing a decorative piece and its manufacturing method for crimping aesthetic element on a piece of material that does not exhibit sufficient plastic deformation.
- the invention relates to a decorative piece comprising a support made of a material not comprising plastic deformation in which at least one recess is arranged characterized in that said recess being filled with a first material forming a substrate in which at least one housing is arranged, said at least one housing being arranged so that at least one aesthetic element can be housed therein, said substrate further comprising at least one hooking means deforming plastically to maintain said at least one element aesthetic in said at least one housing, said hooking means comprising at least one crimping element.
- said at least one crimping element is in the form of a stud or a grain.
- said at least one recess comprises vertical flanks in order to improve the maintenance of each aesthetic element in the support.
- said at least one recess comprises flanks arranged so that the surface of the recess increases with the depth of the recess. In a fourth advantageous embodiment, said at least one recess comprises flanks arranged so that the surface of the recess decreases with the depth of the recess.
- said at least one recess comprises holding means extending from one of the walls of the recess for holding the first material in said recess.
- the holding means are in the form of at least one recess. In another advantageous embodiment, the holding means are in the form of at least one through recess.
- the holding means are in the form of at least one protrusion.
- the first material is metallic.
- the first material is an at least partially amorphous metallic material.
- the first material is a totally amorphous metallic material.
- the first material comprises at least one element which is of the precious type, included in the list comprising gold, platinum, palladium, rhenium, ruthenium, rhodium, silver, iridium or osmium.
- the distance between the aesthetic element and an edge of the recess is at least 0.01 mm.
- the height of the housing is at least equal to the height of the yoke of the aesthetic element.
- the invention also relates to a method of crimping at least one aesthetic element on a support comprising the steps of: a) providing a support in a fragile material with at least one recess; (b) provide at least one aesthetic element; c) filling said hollow with a first material; d) providing at least one housing and hooking means in the first material; e) crimping said at least one aesthetic element by placing it in said at least one housing and deforming the hooking means so as to maintain it.
- the invention also relates to a method of crimping at least one aesthetic element on a support comprising the steps of: a) providing a support provided with at least one recess; (b) provide at least one aesthetic element; c) filling said hollow with a first at least partially amorphous material; d) locally heating said first material to at least its glass transition temperature; e) inserting said at least one aesthetic element into the first material and then cooling.
- the invention also relates to a method of crimping at least one aesthetic element on a support comprising the steps of: a) providing a support provided with at least one recess; (b) provide at least one aesthetic element; c) filling said hollow with a first at least partially amorphous material; d) locally heating said at least one aesthetic element to at least the glass transition temperature of said first material; e) inserting said at least one aesthetic element into the first material and then cooling.
- the crimping step e) consists of a plastic deformation of the hooking means.
- the crimping step e) consists of an elastic deformation of the hooking means.
- the crimping step e) consists of a thermal expansion of the support and the first material in order to crimp the said at least one aesthetic element in the at least one housing.
- the first material is metallic.
- the first material is an at least partially amorphous metallic material.
- the first material is a totally amorphous metallic material.

In another advantageous embodiment, the filling step c) consists in filling the hollow by driving a substrate into a metal element. In another advantageous embodiment, step c) for filling the recess by heating comprises heating the support to thermally expand and increase the dimensions of the recess then place the substrate in the recess and finally cool to contract the support.
- the filling step c) consists in filling the hollow by densification of powder.
- the present invention offers the possibility of using a known crimping method and thus not to complicate the process.
- Another advantage of this solution is that it can crimp any type of material.
- the principle used is a principle of the material that is to say that a substrate in a deformable material is introduced into a plastically deformable material so as to allow crimping and to give the illusion that it is this non-plastically deformable material which is crimped.
- FIG. 1 and 2 show schematically example of decorative piece using the present invention
- FIG. 3 to 1 1 schematically illustrate the steps of the embodiment of the method according to an example of the invention
- FIG. 12 and 13 show a top view of the aesthetic elements crimped and uncrimped according to the invention.
- - Figure 14 shows a sectional view of the holding means according to the invention.
- FIGS. 15 and 16 represent an alternative of the method according to the invention.
- FIGS. 17 and 18 represent another alternative of the method according to the invention.
- the present invention is a decorative piece 1. It consists of a first part 2 and a second part 3.
- the two parts 2, 3 are arranged to become solid with each other.
- the second part 3 is intended to be crimped in the first part 2.
- the first part may be a support 2 and the second part 3, one or more aesthetic elements.
- This or these aesthetic elements 3 can be precious stones such as diamonds or rubies or non precious like zircons or any other possible aesthetic element.
- FIGS. 1 and 2 show exemplary embodiments of the invention.
- the decorative piece 1 can be, for example, a watch bezel 10 inlaid with indicia as visible in Figure 1 or a watch glass 1 1 as visible in Figure 2 or a dial 22 or any external parts of a watch .
- the latter comprises a discoidal body forming the support 2 in which are crimped aesthetic elements 3.
- This dial can be, for example, made of ceramic. It will be understood that ceramics are not the only material that can be used. Thus, any material not exhibiting plastic deformation sufficient, or whose elastic limit is too high to allow crimping, can be used such as for example sapphire, silicon, glass or hardened steel.
- the interest is to crimp the said ice allowing a visual effect in three dimensions such as a time lapse or a logo above the needles.
- the decorative piece 1 may be a pen or a cufflink or a jewelery item such as a ring or an earring.
- the surface of the support 2 which will be crimped can then be plane or curved, that is to say concave or convex.
- this support 2 comprises at least one recess 4, shown in FIG. 4, arranged on said support 2 to allow the crimping of at least one aesthetic element 3.
- Each recess 4 is then in the form of a pattern and has flanks 7, preferably substantially perpendicular to the visible surface.
- recesses 4 are used to allow the use of a substrate 6 for crimping.
- the invention proposes to fill said hollow 4 with a first material more easily plastically deformable so as to crimp said at least one aesthetic element 3, which is not possible with a ceramic or silicon support.
- a first material which is metallic.
- the first step is to provide the support 2 in a material that does not plastically deform.
- the second step thus consists in making the recess 4 in the support 2.
- This recess 4 can be made for example by machining, by laser ablation, or directly during the molding of the support or by any other technique.
- the third step is to fill said recess with a first material.
- This first material is then used to serve as substrate 6.
- the third step makes it possible to obtain the support 2 visible in FIG.
- the first material used is a metal or metal alloy, partially amorphous or not.
- the term partially indicates that for a block of material, the percentage of material amount of said block having the amorphous state is sufficient for the block itself to have the specific characteristics of amorphous metals and metal alloys.
- the amorphous materials have the advantage of being easily shaped.
- the precious metal or one of these alloys is included in the list comprising gold, platinum, palladium, rhenium, ruthenium, rhodium, silver, iridium or osmium.
- One of the methods for filling the hollow 4 is to use electroforming.
- the principle used for carrying out this filling consists, for non-conductive electrical materials, in depositing a first so-called conductive coupling layer by known techniques such as, for example: physical vapor deposition (PVD), deposition chemical vapor phase (CVD), electroless deposit or others.
- the bonding layer is not necessarily necessary.
- the recesses 4 are filled with metal by electroforming.
- the part to be marked is immersed in a bath containing metal ions which through an electric current are deposited on the said part.
- the recesses 4 are then filled with metal allowing the realization of said markings.
- a second method to fill the hollow is to use a method of assembly by driving.
- This method consists in producing a block of metal alloy whose dimensions and shape are slightly larger than those of the recess 4 and forcing this block to enter said recess 4.
- it may be provided to perform this step of assembly using thermal expansion.
- the Support 2 is heated so that, under the effect of heat, it expands thermally.
- the support 2 sees its dimensions increased.
- This increase in dimensions is also applicable to the recess 4. Consequently, the difference between the dimensions of the recess 4 and the dimensions of the block is modified so that the dimensions of the recess 4 become larger than those of the block. It is then easy to insert the block in the hollow 4.
- the support 2 When the support 2 is cooled, it resumes its initial dimensions and the block is trapped in said recess 4.
- FIGS. 5 and 6 show, in a simplified manner, the steps for filling the hollow 4.
- This preform 6a may be made by various techniques such as, for example, injection into a form mold, hot forming above Tg, stamping of the strip, or by machining.
- this preform 6a is placed above the support 2, as can be seen in FIG. 5, on the face where said recesses 4 open to fill the said recesses by hot forming.
- the assembly is then heated to a temperature above the glass transition temperature Tg, thus allowing a decrease in the viscosity of the preform, and then a pressure is exerted. Once these conditions are met, the pressure exerted on the viscous preform allows the viscous amorphous metal alloy to fill the recess 4 as visible in FIG. 6. Then, when the recesses 4 are filled as shown in FIG. the assembly in order to maintain the amorphous state of the alloy.
- the vertical flanks 7 retain the amorphous material by friction.
- the flanks 7 may be inclined to shrink the surface of the horizontal plane at the bottom of the recess 4 or on the contrary so as to enlarge. The most advantageous case is when the surface of the bottom of the hollow 4 is the largest since it allows to naturally retain the amorphous metal alloy in the recess 4. Conversely, when the inclination generates a larger section at of the surface of the support 2, the maintenance of the amorphous material in the recess 4 is no longer optimal. Another advantage is that this decreasing viscosity causes a decrease in the stress to be applied to fill the recesses 4 with the amorphous metal alloy. Therefore, the support 2 of fragile materials is not likely to break although a pressing operation is performed.
- shaping is possible, such as, for example, the casting or injection process, which consists of heating a metal preform above its melting point and then casting or injecting the liquid metal thus obtained into the hollow 4 of support 2.
- the powder densification process can also be used and consists in introducing a metal powder into the recess 4 of the support 2 and consolidating it by a supply of energy such as an oven, a laser beam, an ion beam or any other means.
- a cooling step to a temperature below Tg is performed to prevent the crystallization of the alloy to obtain a hollow 4 filled with amorphous or semi-amorphous metal alloy.
- a fourth preparation step is performed. This step consists of manufacturing the housings or crimping holes 8 in which the aesthetic elements 3 are placed, and to manufacture the hooking means.
- This step can be carried out either conventionally such as machining, milling, drilling, or in a less conventional manner, by hot deformation, or by a combination of two ways.
- the hot deformation method consists of using a tool having the negative geometry of the hole and the crimping element and applying this tool, with a certain force and at a temperature higher than the Tg of the amorphous metal, on the alloy amorphous metal filling the hollow 4. It is thus possible to avoid the machining steps that can be difficult depending on the amorphous metal alloys used.
- the hooking means 5 is in the form of at least one crimping element 9.
- This crimping element 9 in the case for example of a grain crimping, consists of studs or grains arranged around the perimeter of each These studs 9, visible in FIGS. 8 and 10, are made by machining and are produced before or after the drilling of the crimping holes 8. In fact, during the machining of the holes, of the material of the substrate 6, that is to say the first material, is removed so as to form these crimping grains 9.
- the closed crimping consists of a single crimping element 9 extending on the periphery of the aesthetic element 3.
- the crimping rod is used to crimp the aesthetic elements 3 cut into rods.
- This crimping consists in providing crimping elements 9 extending parallel to each side of the aesthetic element 3 coming down on the latter.
- the crimping elements 9 are projecting portions arranged in the crimping hole 8.
- projecting portions cooperate with at least one groove made on said aesthetic element 3 so that the crimping is done by inserting the aesthetic element 3 in the hole 8 until the projecting portions fit into said at least one groove.
- a crimping grain it is expected to ideally have four crimping grains 9 near each crimping hole 8 as shown in Figure 10.
- the aesthetic element 3 is in the form of a diamond comprising a cylinder head 3b in which are cut several facets and a crown 3c also faceted surmounted by a 3d table as visible in Figure 15.
- This aesthetic element has, seen from above, a substantially circular shape.
- the width of the recess 4 is ideally equal to that of the aesthetic element 3.
- the distance between the aesthetic element 3 and the edge of the recess 4 must be at least 0.01 mm so that the visual effect of the aesthetic element 3 in the support 2 is optimal, that is to say to have the impression that the aesthetic element 3 remains embedded in the ceramic support 2 and not in a metal.
- the distance between the aesthetic element 3 and the edge of the recess 4 will depend on the dimensions and shapes of the aesthetic elements 3. For example, for an aesthetic element 3 with a diameter of 1 mm, the distance between the aesthetic element 3 and the edge of the recess 4 will be 0.45 mm.
- the distance between the aesthetic element 3 and the edge of the recess 4 is composed of a so-called worked area, that is to say an area in which the crimping grains are made, this hollow zone, and a so-called non-worked zone which is an aesthetic and visual zone.
- this non-worked area will be at least 0.01 mm and at most 0.20mm. Preferably, it will be 0.10 mm.
- the height of the hole 8 is at least equal to the height of the yoke of the aesthetic element 3. This allows, when the aesthetic element 3 is crimped, to see as little as possible the first constituent material of the substrate 6.
- the crimping grains 9, four in number are made so as to have a shape of a right triangle whose hypotenuse is convex.
- the convex shape of the hypotenuse is similar to the curvature to that of the aesthetic element 3 when it is seen from above.
- the support 2 visible in FIG. 7 is obtained, the fifth crimping step can then take place.
- the conventional crimping step consists of deformation.
- This technique consists in placing the aesthetic element 3 in the hole 8 and in deforming the substrate and / or the crimping elements 5 to press them on said aesthetic element 3 as visible in FIGS. 9 to 13. As a result, the latter is held in the crimping hole 8.
- the deformation may also be elastic or obtained by thermal expansion.
- the crimping is obtained by clipping the aesthetic element in the hooking means 5. It is obvious that in this case, a slight plastic deformation hooking means 5 could take place.
- the crimping is obtained by heating the support 2 to a sufficiently high temperature to allow the encrustation of the aesthetic element 3 in its hole 8 without effort. The cooling will then make it possible to contract the material thus making it possible to maintain the aesthetic element 3 by the hanging means 5.
- the method according to the invention therefore consists in: a) providing a support in a brittle material (2) with at least one recess (4); b) providing at least one aesthetic element (3); c) filling said hollow with a first material; d) providing at least one crimping hole (8) and at least one crimping element in the first material; e) crimping said at least one aesthetic element by placing it in said at least one hole and plastically deforming the crimping element so as to maintain it.
- amorphous metals have no dislocations and can not plastically deform by the movement of the latter. They therefore generally have a fragile behavior, that is to say that they suddenly break once the elastic limit exceeded. It has been found, however, that some amorphous alloys can accommodate macroscopic permanent deformation by generation of slip bands at the microscopic scale. In addition to being dependent on the type of amorphous alloy, the ability to accommodate permanent deformation in amorphous metals is highly dependent on the dimensions of the part. Thus, the smaller the dimensions of the area requested, the greater the permanent deformation.
- a first crimping method used is plastic deformation. The latter is done with a tool called perloir 100 used to deform each crimping element 9, it allows to obtain the aesthetic element 3 crimped of Figure 13.
- plastic deformation is possible for amorphous alloys accommodating permanent deformation and having not too high elastic limits, typically less than 1500 MPa,
- a second method of crimping is used for alloys with elastic limits that are too high for manual cold-working deformation, such as, for example, amorphous metal alloys having a yield strength greater than 1500 MPa:
- the crimping method consists in heating the grains 9 to a temperature above the glass transition temperature Tg of the amorphous metal alloy in order to greatly reduce the viscosity and therefore the force required for their deformation.
- the grains may be heated using a heated crimping tool, passing an electric current between the crimping tool and the grain, a grain-focused laser beam or any other method. Once the grains 9 at the right temperature, they are deformed so that crimping can take place. Cooling below Tg then allows the grains to become solid and thus to make crimping effective.
- This solution has the advantage of allowing intimate contact between the amorphous metal alloy and the aesthetic element 3, which improves the resistance of the latter. Indeed, in the case of cold plastic deformation, for both crystalline and amorphous metals, a springback occurs during the relaxation of the force applied to the grain 9. This return inevitably implies a slight separation between the grain 9 and the aesthetic element 3, which can cause problems of holding. However, the hot deformation used does not involve elastic return and release is not therefore performed.
- a third method of crimping is used when the alloys are difficult to crimpable by plastic deformation cold or hot. This mode consists in using the large elastic deformation of amorphous alloys, typically 2% or that of crystalline alloys, typically 0.5%.
- the method consists of pressing the aesthetic element 3 into the crimping hole 8 of the substrate 6. Under the pressure, the metal alloy of the substrate 6 deforms elastically allowing the aesthetic element 3 to be inserted.
- the hooking means 5 in the form of a crimping recess, and the rondiste or the end or the edge 3a of the aesthetic elements 3 are opposite one another, a springback takes place.
- the elastic return of the hooking means 5 on the aesthetic element 3 makes it possible to definitively maintain the latter as visible in FIGS. 15 and 16.
- a fourth method of crimping is envisaged.
- the support 2 is heated thermally so that all the support expands, that is to say the support 2 and the substrate 6 amorphous alloy.
- the crimping hole 8 also expands. Therefore, the aesthetic element 3 can be placed in the crimping hole 8.
- the aesthetic element 3 is then held in the hole 8 by the hooking means 5 after cooling the support 2 as visible in FIGS. 17 and 18.
- These hooking means 5 is in the form of a crimping recess in which the rondiste or the end or the edge 3a of the aesthetic element 3 is inserted.
- a fifth method of crimping can be envisaged specifically for amorphous materials in which the fourth step d) and the fifth step e) are simultaneous.
- This mode consists of heating the aesthetic element to a temperature above the glass transition temperature Tg of the first material and then pressing it therein, that is to say the amorphous metal alloy.
- the heat released by said aesthetic element locally heats the substrate 6 to a temperature above Tg which allows the amorphous metal alloy to greatly reduce its viscosity thus facilitating insertion.
- the substrate 6 is cooled to keep the amorphous state of the alloy and is deburred from any surplus material.
- This step thus allows a better grip of the aesthetic element 3 in the substrate 6 thanks to the ability of the amorphous metal alloy to marry the contours.
- a sixth crimping method in which the third (c), fourth (d) and fifth (e) are simultaneous is contemplated.
- This variant consists in providing that the aesthetic element 3 is directly placed in the recess 4 before the step of filling said recess 4 with the first material. The filling of the recess 4 is then done by casting, hot forming, electroforming or densification whose details have been explained previously. This technique makes it possible to have a faster crimping process while ensuring a good maintenance of the aesthetic elements 3.
- An advantage of the invention is that it can crimp any type of material.
- the principle used is an insert principle that is to say that a substrate material capable of accepting a deformation is reported in a material that is not plastically deformable so as to allow crimping and to give the illusion that it is this non-plastically deformable material that is crimped.
- the maintenance of the first material is improved by using holding means 50.
- These holding means 50 comprise at least one recess 51 and / or at least one protrusion 52. These holding means 50 are made prior to the filling of the recess 4.
- the first material filled the recesses 5a or protuberances 5b become trapped in said first material. Consequently, when the first material fills the recess 4 and is solidified, it is perfectly maintained in said recess 4.
- the low viscosity of the amorphous material makes it possible to fill the hollow 4 well.
- this low viscosity of the amorphous material makes it possible to fill the hollow. also to better fill the recesses 51 or to better wrap the growths 52.
- recesses 51 or protuberances 52 may be located on the vertical flanks 7 of the recess 4 or at the bottom 7a of the recess 4. Similarly, the recesses 51 may or may not be through.
