Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Schmucksteinverbund sowie auf ein Verfahren zu dessen Herstellung.The invention relates to a gemstone composite and to a method for its production.

Eine Vielzahl von Schmucksteinen, wie facettierten Glassteinen, wurden bisher meist in der Weise verbunden, indem die Schmucksteine mit Bohrungen versehen wurden und durch die Bohrungen jeweils zwei benachbarte Schmuckstei­ne mittels Metalldraht aneinander gehängt wurden. Eine solche Anordnung ist kostenintensiv. Die Bohrungen stören den ästhetischen Eindruck.A large number of gemstones, such as faceted glass stones, have so far mostly been connected in such a way that the gemstones have been provided with holes and two adjacent gemstones have been connected to one another by means of metal wire through the holes. Such an arrangement is expensive. The holes disturb the aesthetic impression.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Schmuck­steinverbund zu schaffen, wobei die Schmucksteine in ein­facher und wenig arbeitsintensiver Weise verbunden werden können, und der optische Eindruck nicht beeinträchtigt wird.The invention has for its object to provide a gemstone composite, the gemstones can be connected in a simple and less labor-intensive manner, and the visual impression is not impaired.

Der Erfindung liegt die Erkenntnis zugrunde, daß diese Aufgabe dadurch gelöst werden kann, daß die Schmucksteine mittels schrumpffähigen Kunststoffäden verbunden werden.The invention is based on the finding that this object can be achieved in that the gemstones are connected by means of shrinkable plastic threads.

Gegenstand der Erfindung ist ein Schmucksteinverbund, der dadurch gekennzeichnet ist, daß eine Vielzahl von neben­einander angeordneten Schmucksteinen in einem Gitter aus Längsfäden und Querfäden gehalten werden, zumindest die Längsfäden oder die Querfäden in die seitlichen Nuten der Schmucksteine eingreifen, und die Längsfäden und Querfä­den aus geschrumpftem Kunststoff bestehen.The invention relates to a gemstone composite, which is characterized in that a large number of gemstones arranged next to one another are held in a lattice of longitudinal threads and transverse threads, at least the longitudinal threads or the transverse threads engage in the lateral grooves of the gemstones, and the longitudinal threads and transverse threads are shrunk Plastic.

Gegenstand der Erfindung ist ferner ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines Schmucksteinverbundes, das dadurch gekennzeichnet ist, daß in ein Gitter aus Längs- und Querfäden, die aus einem schrumpfbarem Kunststoff beste­hen, Schmucksteine mit seitlichen Nuten eingesetzt wer­den, sodaß zumindest die Längs- oder die Querfäden in die Nuten eingreifen, und die Fäden geschrumpft werden.The invention further relates to a method for producing a gemstone composite, which thereby is characterized in that in a grid of longitudinal and transverse threads, which consist of a shrinkable plastic, gemstones with lateral grooves are used, so that at least the longitudinal or transverse threads engage in the grooves, and the threads are shrunk.

Vorzugsweise werden Kunststoffäden aus geschrumpftem thermoplastischen Kunststoff eingesetzt. Die Längs- und die Querfäden des Gitters werden vorzugsweise an den Kreuzungspunkten miteinander verschweißt.Plastic threads made of shrunk thermoplastic are preferably used. The longitudinal and transverse threads of the grid are preferably welded to one another at the crossing points.

Der Schmucksteinverbund kann einreihig sein. Er eignet sich für die verschiedensten Dekorationszwecke. Eine sol­che Anordnung ist auch für Schmuck, beispielsweise für Armbänder, geeignet.The gem stone composite can be single-row. It is suitable for a wide variety of decorative purposes. Such an arrangement is also suitable for jewelry, for example for bracelets.

Es kommt aber auch eine mehrreihige bzw. flächenförmige Ausgestaltung in Betracht. Eine solche Anordnung kann zur Flächendekoration und insbesondere auch in der Beleuch­tungsindustrie Anwendung finden.However, a multi-row or sheet-like configuration can also be considered. Such an arrangement can be used for surface decoration and in particular also in the lighting industry.

Der Begriff "Schmuckstein" wird hier in seiner allgemein­sten Form verstanden und umfaßt alle Arten von Schmuck­steinen und bezieht sich insbesondere auf facettierte Glasschmucksteine. Die Form der Schmucksteine kann viel­fältig sein, beispielsweise quadratisch, rechteckig, achteckig, rund oder oval. Auch die Größe der Schmuck­steine ist in weiten Grenzen variable, beispielsweise zwischen 5 und 100 mm. Die Schmucksteine können verschie­denst gefärbt sein. Sie können die verschiedensten Schliffe aufweisen.The term "gemstone" is understood here in its most general form and encompasses all types of gemstones and relates in particular to faceted glass jewelry stones. The shape of the gemstones can be varied, for example square, rectangular, octagonal, round or oval. The size of the gemstones is also variable within wide limits, for example between 5 and 100 mm. The gemstones can be colored in different ways. They can have a wide variety of cuts.

Die Schmucksteine haben seitliche Nuten zur Aufnahme der Kunststoffäden. Die Tiefe und Breite der Nuten kann bei­spielsweise zwischen 0,5 und 5 mm betragen. Die Nuten werden dem Durchmesser der Kunststoffäden angepaßt. Die Stärke der Kunststoffäden richtet sich nach der Größe der Schmucksteine und den Zugfähigkeitserfordernissen.The gemstones have lateral grooves to accommodate the plastic threads. The depth and width of the grooves can be, for example, between 0.5 and 5 mm. The grooves are adapted to the diameter of the plastic threads. The strength of the plastic threads depends on the size of the gemstones and the traction requirements.

Nuten können nur auf zwei parallel liegenden Seitenflä­chen zur Aufnahme der Längs- oder der Querfäden vorgese­hen sein. Alternativ können auf allen vier Seiten des Schmucksteins Nuten vorgesehen sein, um sowohl die Längs- als auch die Querfäden aufzunehmen.Grooves can only be provided on two parallel side surfaces for receiving the longitudinal or transverse threads. Alternatively, grooves can be provided on all four sides of the gem to accommodate both the longitudinal and the transverse threads.

Die Erfindung wird anhand der Zeichnung, die beispiels­hafte Ausführungsformen zeigt, näher erläutert.The invention is explained in more detail with reference to the drawing, which shows exemplary embodiments.

Es zeigen:

  • - Figur 1 einen einreihigen Schmucksteinverbund in Drauf­sicht und
  • - Figur 2 einen flächenförmigen Schmucksteinverbund in Draufsicht.
Show it:
  • - Figure 1 is a single row gem stone composite in plan view and
  • - Figure 2 is a planar gemstone composite in plan view.

Aus Figur 1 ist zu ersehen, daß die rechteckigen Schmuck­steine 2 durch ein Gitter 3 aus Längsfäden 4 und Querfä­den 5 gehalten werden. Die Längsfäden 4 sind in Längsnu­ten 6 angeordnet, während die Querfäden 5 neben dem Schmuckstein 2 verlaufen. Es kommt alternativ in Be­tracht, auch die Querfäden 5 in nicht gezeigten Quernuten 7 anzuordnen. Als weitere Alternative können nur die Querfäden 5 in Quernuten 7 angeordnet sein, und die Längsfäden 4 seitlich an den Schmucksteinen 2 geführt werden.From Figure 1 it can be seen that the rectangular gems 2 are held by a grid 3 of longitudinal threads 4 and 5 transverse threads. The longitudinal threads 4 are arranged in longitudinal grooves 6, while the transverse threads 5 run next to the gem stone 2. Alternatively, it is also possible to arrange the transverse threads 5 in transverse grooves 7, not shown. As a further alternative, only the transverse threads 5 can be arranged in transverse grooves 7, and the longitudinal threads 4 can be guided laterally on the gemstones 2.

Vorzugsweise sind die Längsfäden 4 mit den Querfäden 5 an den Kreuzungspunkten 9 verschweißt. Es kommt aber auch in Betracht, das Gitter 3 durch Pressen oder Stanzen ein­ stückig herzustellen oder die Quer- und Längsfäden in ge­eigneter Weise zu verkleben.The longitudinal threads 4 are preferably welded to the transverse threads 5 at the crossing points 9. But it is also possible to enter the grid 3 by pressing or stamping to produce in pieces or to glue the transverse and longitudinal threads in a suitable manner.

Als Kunststoffäden werden solche aus schrumpffähigem Kunststoff verwendet. Das Gitter wird so dimensioniert, daß die Schmucksteine leicht einsetzbar sind. Die Kunst­fäden schnappen in die seitlichen Nuten ein, wobei es, um ein Durchfallen zu verhindern, ausreicht, daß nur entwe­der die Längsfäden oder die Querfäden in Nuten zu liegen kommen. Aus ästhetischen Gründen kann es aber vorteilhaft sein, sowohl die Quer- als auch die Längsfäden in Nuten verlaufen zu lassen.Those made of shrinkable plastic are used as plastic threads. The grid is dimensioned so that the gemstones are easy to use. The synthetic threads snap into the lateral grooves, it being sufficient, in order to prevent falling through, that only either the longitudinal threads or the transverse threads come to lie in grooves. For aesthetic reasons, however, it can be advantageous to let both the transverse and the longitudinal threads run in grooves.

Nach dem Einsetzen der Schmucksteine in das Gitter werden die Kunststoffäden einem Schrumpfungsprozess unterworfen. Das Schrumpfen erfolgt meist durch Wärmebehandlung. Die vorzugsweise verwendeten kaltgereckten thermoplastischen Kunststoffäden ziehen sich bei der Wärmebehandlung wieder auf ihren Urzustand zusammen. Schrumpfungen von 3 bis 5 % oder auch bedeutend mehr sind leicht zu erzielen. Durch diese Schrumpfung der Kunststoffäden wird eine fester Halt der Schmucksteine im Gitter erzielt. Bevorzugte Kunst­stoffe, die einer Schrumpfung unterworfen werden können, sind Polyethylenterephthalat, Polyethylen, Polyvinylchlo­rid, Polypropylen, Polystyrol, Polyacrylnitril, Polyamid und Polycarbonat. Polyamid wird besonders bevorzugt. Un­ter Umständen kommen auch faserverstärkte Kunststoffe in Betracht.After inserting the gemstones into the grid, the plastic threads are subjected to a shrinking process. The shrinking is usually done by heat treatment. The cold-stretched thermoplastic synthetic threads that are preferably used contract back to their original state during the heat treatment. Shrinkages of 3 to 5% or significantly more are easy to achieve. This shrinkage of the plastic threads ensures a firm hold of the gemstones in the grid. Preferred plastics that can be subjected to shrinkage are polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, polypropylene, polystyrene, polyacrylonitrile, polyamide and polycarbonate. Polyamide is particularly preferred. Fiber-reinforced plastics may also be considered.

Gereckte bzw. verstreckte Kunststoffe werden auch wegen ihrer erhöhten Festigkeit bevorzugt.Stretched or stretched plastics are also preferred because of their increased strength.

Die geeigneten Schrumpfungstemperaturen werden je nach verwendetem Kunststoff gewählt. Beispielsweise kann die Schrumpfung bei Temperaturen zwischen 100 und 120°C durch Eintauchen in eine entsprechend heiße Flüssigkeit erzielt werden.The appropriate shrinkage temperatures are chosen depending on the plastic used. For example, the shrinkage at temperatures between 100 and 120 ° C. Immersion in a correspondingly hot liquid can be achieved.

Es ist ersichtlich, daß Art und Anordnung der Schmuck­steine in vielfältigster Weise erfolgen kann. Die Ab­stände zwischen den Schmucksteinen, deren Größe und Aus­führung sind beliebig variabel.It can be seen that the type and arrangement of the gemstones can be done in many different ways. The distances between the gemstones, their size and design can be varied as required.

Je nach Anwendungszweck und daraus resultierenden Bean­spruchungen können dünnere oder dickere Kunststoffäden verschiedener Festigkeit Verwendung finden. Die Durchmes­ser der Kunststoffäden liegen beispielsweise zwischen 0,3 und 5 mm.Depending on the application and the resulting stress, thinner or thicker plastic threads of different strength can be used. The diameter of the plastic threads are, for example, between 0.3 and 5 mm.

Die erfindungsgemäßen Schmucksteinverbunde sind auf ein­fachste Weise und wirtschaftlich herzustellen und zeich­nen sich bei Verwendung beispielsweise dünner durchsich­tiger oder auch gefärbter Kunststoffäden durch eine besondere Ästhetik aus. Der Einsatz der Schmucksteinver­bunde ist vielfältig. Durch die freien Farbenenden ist eine einfache und sichere Befestigung in vielfältiger Weise möglich.The gem stone composites according to the invention can be produced in the simplest and most economical manner and are distinguished by special aesthetics when using, for example, thin, transparent or colored plastic threads. The use of gemstone composites is diverse. Thanks to the free paint ends, simple and secure attachment is possible in a variety of ways.

In Figur 2 ist eine flächenförmige Ausführungsform des Schmucksteinverbundes 1 gezeigt. Die einzelnen Schmuck­steine 2 sind durch Längsfäden 4 und Querfäden 5, die ein Gitter 3 bilden, zusammengefaßt. Die Fäden 4 und 5 ver­laufen in seitlichen (in der Draufsicht nicht gezeigten) Nuten der Schmucksteine 2. Eine solche flächige Anordnung ist für Dekorationszwecke oder insbesondere für Beleuch­tungskörper besonders gut geeignet.FIG. 2 shows a flat embodiment of the gem stone composite 1. The individual gemstones 2 are combined by longitudinal threads 4 and transverse threads 5, which form a grid 3. The threads 4 and 5 run in lateral grooves (not shown in the top view) of the gemstones 2. Such a flat arrangement is particularly well suited for decorative purposes or in particular for lighting fixtures.
