Description:
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0001] The present invention relates to technology of making diamond jewelry and more particularly, to a combinative diamond jewelry and making method thereof.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0002] With rapid exhaustion of diamond resource, price of diamond of large size is becoming increasingly expensive. In field of jewelry, it is difficult for a normal consumer to buy jewelry inlaid with diamond having weight of more than 1 ct (carat). Though small-sized diamond has a low price, a general consumer likes diamond of large size.
[0003] In recent years, in order for a general consumer to get with low price jewelry having effect of large-sized diamond, technicians of diamond jewelry fabrication have developed kinds of diamond combining techniques for simulating effect of large sized diamond using some small sized diamond.
[0004] For example, Chinese Patent No.: CN200710076738.6 has disclosed modular insertion diamond jewelry. According to this disclosure, a noble metal base having a conic bottom surface is provided. A plurality of diamond bores is defined in a top surface of the base for locating diamonds. In addition, a clamping protrusion is disposed between the diamond bores formed along the periphery of the noble metal base. Said clamping protrusion is of a triangle which is wider along a radial outward direction. The diamonds placed along the periphery of the noble metal base jointly push a diamond located at the center of the base. Moreover, the periphery of the noble metal base is flush with periphery diamond. The multiple diamonds and noble metal base in their entirety look like a single diamond of large size.
[0005] In another example, Chinese Patent No.: CN201210034500.8 describes an ice flower cut diamond of "one in six" type. According to this reference, it includes nine steps of: metal reverse molding, finishing, coloring, diamond setting, edge shovel, manual knurling, polishing, plating, and quality control. The metal construction is of a small cylindrical construction. Both top and bottom layers are inclined inwardly and, their angle is designed to be consistent with the angel at which facets of the diamond is cut. Using three-layered circular drill stacking technique, the small diamonds are placed into all locations on the metal bottom layer where no metal is presented. Furthermore, manual knurling is performed on a table triangular metal claw location for increasing refraction and bringing an effect of a large sized diamond by the entire table surface.
[0006] Though above patents and prior art have realized effect of a large sized diamond using several small sized diamonds, these techniques suffer from the following problems.
[0007] At first, to hold these small diamonds in place stably so as to prevent falling of them, metal retention means is mainly used to mount a central diamond surrounded by several small diamonds. This construction however, results in existence of gaps between the central diamond and small diamonds. During wearing processing, dust and dirt will come into the gaps over time, thus making it difficult to clean the gaps and influencing using of the diamond jewelry.
[0008] Secondly, neither of the above prior art techniques is able to design size of the small diamond contained in this combinative diamond and angle of the circular base support based on cutting angle of true diamond. It is impossible to form entire shining visual effects by mutual refraction of these small diamonds according to specific size ratio of the small diamonds to metal part and shape design. As such, there is certain difference between it and true large sized diamond in terms of shape and visual effect.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0050] Preferred embodiments of the instant invention are described in great detail in conjunction with accompanied drawings. It should be understood that these embodiments are only for illustrating spirit of the invention but not for limiting scope of the invention. In addition, it should also be understood that after reading description of the invention, person of the art may make various changes or modifications to the current invention and, these changes or modifications should also fall within scope of the invention as defined by appended claims.
First Embodiment
[0051] As shown in FIGS. 1-3, combinative diamond jewelry of the present invention includes a noble metal supporting base 1 of circular cross section. A side surface of the supporting base 1 is machined according to side structure of large sized diamond, thus effectively enhancing shape simulation of large sized true diamond.
[0052] A large inlay opening 7 is defined in a central location of the supporting base 1. Six intermediate inlay openings 61 are evenly defined circumferentially and around the large inlay opening 7. In other words, centers of the six intermediate inlay openings 61 locate on a same circle. In addition, twelve small cylinders 5 are evenly and circumferentially distributed around the large inlay opening 7. Every two small cylinders 5 are categorized as a group and therefore there are totally six groups of small cylinders 5. A metal claw 8 with specific refraction angle is disposed between two adjacent intermediate inlay openings 61. Each metal claw 8 is craved with a preferred angle of 90°.
[0053] In this embodiment, the inlaying process of the combinative diamond jewelry includes the following steps.
[0054] Firstly, six small sized bottom diamonds 2 are inserted into a slot defined between two adjacent small cylinders 5 of six groups; next, a nail is formed on each small cylinder 5 and, the six small sized bottom diamonds 2 are secured in place by the nails. The six small sized bottom diamonds 2 overlay the remained metal region of the bottom layer of the supporting base 1.
[0055] Secondly, any two small sized periphery diamonds 3 located diagonally are imbedded into an intermediate inlay opening 61 located between two adjacent metal claws 8. In addition, each periphery diamond 3 is pressed against two adjacent bottom diamonds 2 and secured with them.
[0056] Thirdly, a small sized major diamond 4 is inlaid into the large inlay opening 7. Meanwhile, the major diamond 4 is pressed against two small sized periphery diamonds 3 diagonally located so that they are secured together tightly. As the major diamond 4 inlaid into the center of the large inlay opening 7 of the supporting base 1 is just contacted with six small sized bottom diamonds 6 located underneath the diamond 4, no space will be defined between the upper major diamond 4 and lower bottom diamonds 2, thereby preventing dust from entering into interior of the jewelry.
[0057] Fourthly, the remained four small sized periphery diamonds 3 are held in place through corresponding metal claws 8 and also tightly press the central major diamond 4, hence preventing dust from entering into interior of the combinative diamond.
[0058] Fifthly, six metal claws 8 are carved to get carving 9 with specific angle, and are inlaid with the side surface of the supporting base 1 and by cooperation with the diamonds on the supporting base 1, refraction angle by which an entire diamond is cut is obtained, thus improving appearance of the entire combinative diamond.
[0059] Sixthly, metal region of the jewelry is plated using plating or rhodium plating method so as to further improve metal blare, thus improving blare of the entire jewelry.
Second Embodiment
[0060] As shown in FIGS. 4-6, combinative diamond jewelry of the present invention includes a noble metal supporting base 1 of heart cross section. A side surface of the supporting base 1 is machined according to side structure of large sized diamond, thus effectively enhancing shape simulation of large sized true diamond.
[0061] Twelve metal claws 8 are distributed around the supporting base 1. Among these metal claws, two metal claws 8 located on a tip portion of the heart shape are combined to form a unity, and the rest metal claws 8 are uniformly arranged such that an identical angle is defined between two adjacent claws 8. An intermediate inlay opening 61 is disposed between every two adjacent metal claws 8. At half and one fourth locations of a symmetrical line of the supporting base 1 small cylinders 5 are disposed respectively. The height of the small cylinders 5 is identical to that of the metal claws 8. Carvings are formed on the top of each cylinder 5, and the carvings are preferably divided into eight identical portions. The preferred carving angle is 90°. Around the small cylinder 5 located at half position of the symmetrical line of the supporting base 1, three large inlay openings 7 are disposed so that an equilateral triangle is defined among these openings 7. In a recessed portion of the hear shape of the supporting base 1, two small inlay openings 6 are defined symmetrically about the same small cylinder 5. At two sides of the large inlay opening 7 of the tip portion of the heart shape, two small inlay openings are defined symmetrically about the same small cylinder 5. The above four small inlay openings 6 form together an equilateral trapezoid, and four openings 6 locate on four corns of the trapezoid respectively.
[0062] In this embodiment, the inlaying process of the combinative diamond jewelry includes the following steps.
[0063] At first, four small sized bottom diamonds 2 are inlaid into spaces defined among four small inlay openings 6. Among these bottom diamonds 2, two bottom diamonds 2 close to the small cylinder 5 are held in place by forming a nail on the small cylinder 5 and are secured onto the cylinder 5 by said nail. The four small sized bottom diamonds 2 overlay the remained metal region of the bottom layer of the supporting base 1.
[0064] Secondly, six small sized periphery diamonds 3 are imbedded into an intermediate inlay opening 61 located between two adjacent metal claws 8. In addition, each periphery diamond 3 is pressed against two adjacent bottom diamonds 2 and secured with them.
[0065] Thirdly, three small sized major diamonds 4 are inlaid into the large inlay opening 7. The major diamond 4, peripheral small sized periphery diamonds 3, bottom diamonds 2 and small cylinders 5 are pressed against each other such that they are secured strongly. As the major diamond 4 inlaid into the center of the large inlay opening 7 of the supporting base 1 is just contacted with two small sized bottom diamonds 6 located underneath the diamond 4, no space will be defined between the upper major diamond 4 and lower bottom diamonds 2, thereby preventing dust from entering into interior of the jewelry.
[0066] Fourthly, the remained four small sized periphery diamonds 3 are held in place through corresponding metal claws 8 and also tightly press the central major diamond 4, hence preventing dust from entering into interior of the combinative diamond.
[0067] Fifthly, twelve metal claws 8 are carved to get carving 9 with specific angle, and are inlaid with the side surface of the supporting base 1 and by cooperation with the diamonds on the supporting base 1, refraction angle by which an entire diamond is cut is obtained, thus improving appearance of the entire combinative diamond.
[0068] Sixthly, metal region of the jewelry is plated using plating or rhodium plating method so as to further improve metal blare, thus improving blare of the entire jewelry.
[0069] Alternatively, the cross section of the supporting base 1 may also take the shape of water drop, ellipse, pyriform, pentagon and so on.
[0070] In above illustrated embodiments of the invention, the following preferred parameters may be utilized.
[0071] The size of the small sized bottom diamond 2 is 0.85 mm, and is within a tolerance range of ±0.05 mm.
[0072] The size of the small sized major diamond 4 is 2.35 mm, and is within a tolerance range of ±0.05 mm.
[0073] The size of the small sized periphery diamond 3 is 1.4 mm, and is within a tolerance range of ±0.05 mm.
[0074] The upper width of the supporting base 1 is 6.5 mm, while the lower width thereof is 6.1 mm. The angle between the side surface and top surface of the supporting bases 1 is 30°, while the angle between the side surface and bottom surface is 60°, thus forming inclination angle identical to that of a true diamond. The height between the uppermost location of the top surface of the metal claw and bottom surface of the supporting base 1 is 3 mm. The height between the lowermost location of the top surface of the claw and bottom surface of the base 1 is 2.4 mm, thus also forming inclination angle identical to that of a true diamond. The carving angle of the top surface of the metal claw is 90°, hereby obtaining reflective effects of true diamond.
[0075] The making method of the combinative diamond jewelry of the invention includes the following steps.
[0076] (1) Sample making: A metal member corresponding to style of the jewelry is made using silver supported wax product and grinding tool. Corresponding metal base is prepared based on inlay manner of the diamond, size of the diamond to be embedded into the metal base is determined, and location of the diamond mounting is specified.
[0077] (2) Reverse molding: Gold/platinum solution is poured into a mold, and after cooling the mold is disassembled, thus manufacturing directly a metal jewelry from the wax product.
[0078] (3) Finishing: Finish the metal jewelry to form semi-manufactured product with slim lines, crisp angle and integrity.
[0079] (4) Polishing: Polish the finished metal base to bring metal blare of the jewelry.
