A joint is provided between the step of forming a recess for mounting and at least a part of the other end side of the base and at least a part of the bottom surface side of the recess, and the decorative member is fixed to the recess. It has a process to be performed.

Some jewelry is attached with decorative objects such as jewelry. In such accessories, for example, a recess is provided in the jewelry body by processing such as cutting, and a decorative body is attached to the recess. A specific example is shown below. As an example of attaching the decorative body directly to the accessory main body, first, the accessory main body is provided with a recess having a shape corresponding to the shape of the decorative body. Next, as an example, a claw for holding the decorative body is provided in the recess, and the decorative body is attached to the accessory main body using the claw. As another example, as described in Patent Document 1, an adhesive is applied to a recess of the accessory body or a decorative body such as jewelry, and the decorative body is attached to the accessory body by this adhesive. As an example of indirectly attaching a decorative body to an accessory body, Patent Document 2 describes a technique of using a case for fitting a decorative body such as jewelry. First, a recess having a shape corresponding to the shape of the case is provided in the accessory body. Next, the case in which the decorative body such as jewelry is fitted is attached to the recess of the jewelry body.

When attaching the ornament with claws, the ornament is provided on the accessory body itself, and the ornament is attached manually so as not to damage the accessory body. For this reason, a lot of time and effort was required to manufacture the jewelry. In particular, since a plurality of claws are provided for one decorative body, it takes more time and labor to attach the plurality of decorative bodies to the accessory main body with the claws. Moreover, since it is a detailed work, the cost required for installation is high.

When the decorative body is attached by an adhesive, the adhesive adheres directly to the decorative body. When the adhered adhesive cures, it may adversely affect the ornament (especially jewelry). For example, jewelry may be contaminated or deteriorated where the adhesive is attached. Further, even if there is no deterioration of the gemstone, in the case of gemstones having high transparency, the reflection of light may change due to the adhesion of the adhesive. As a result, the original brilliance of jewelry may be lost, and accessories have been required to further enhance their aesthetics. For example, in the technique described in Patent Document 1, since a curing agent such as an adhesive is attached to the jewel, the original beauty of the jewel may be impaired.

For example, in the technique described in Patent Document 2, a case to which decorative jewelry or the like is attached is fixed to a recess for fitting the case of eyeglasses with an adhesive or the like. According to the technique described in Patent Document 2, the case has a shape having a bottom surface, the bottom surface of the case and the surface of the adhesive are parallel to each other, and air bubbles may enter between both sides. Therefore, the case in which the decorative body such as jewelry is fitted is not sufficiently fixed, and there is a risk that the case may fall off from the recess for fitting the case.

On the other hand, according to the jewelry, the decorated product, the method for manufacturing the jewelry, and the decoration method according to the present disclosure, a (hollow) substantially columnar base having a hollow space penetrating in the axial direction is used. A decorative body such as jewelry is attached to a recess of the accessory body or the product body (hereinafter, the accessory body or the product body is also referred to as the accessory body or the like). Specifically, a unit member that holds the decorative body by a holding portion formed at one end of the base is produced. Then, the decorative member having the unit member is fixed to the recess of the accessory main body or the like with an adhesive or the like. Since the decorative body may be attached to a base having a substantially columnar shape (hollow substantially columnar shape) having a hollow space penetrating in the axial direction, the attachment work can be easily performed. In addition, the decorative member can be easily attached to the jewelry body or the like.

In addition, the accessories and decorated products according to the present disclosure are decorated by providing a joint formed of an adhesive or the like between the other end of the base and at least a part of the bottom surface of the recess. The member is fixed to the jewelry body or the like. By using the base, it is possible to prevent the joint portion such as an adhesive from directly adhering to the decorative body such as jewelry. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the possibility that the original beauty of the decorative body is impaired due to the joint portion. Further, according to the accessory, the decorated product, the method for manufacturing the accessory, and the decoration method according to the present disclosure, the decorative body is stably held on the base by the holding portion of the base, so that the decorative body may fall off. It also has the advantage of being suppressed.

Further, according to the accessory, the decorated product, the method for manufacturing the accessory, and the method for decorating the accessory according to the present disclosure, the other end of the hollow substantially pillar-shaped base is arranged so as to be in contact with the bottom surface of the recess. When the base and the recess are joined with an adhesive or the like, the base is erected in the recess, so that it is difficult for air bubbles to enter the joint. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the possibility that the base will fall off from the accessory body or the like. In addition, since it is difficult for air bubbles to enter, it is easy to position the base in the recess. Further, it is possible to prevent the height of the decorative body such as jewelry from becoming higher than the predetermined height.

According to the method for manufacturing an accessory and the method for decorating according to the present disclosure, a decorative body such as jewelry is attached to the main body of the accessory by using a decorative member, so that the process of attaching the decorative body can be easily performed. become. In addition, since it can be easily attached, mass production of accessories and decorated products becomes possible. In addition, the cost required for the mounting process of the decorative body is reduced.

As described above, the accessories, the decorated products, the method of manufacturing the accessories, and the decoration methods according to the present disclosure prevent the ornaments such as jewelry from falling off, and further improve the aesthetics of the accessories and products. There are many advantages such as increasing added value and creating new fashion.

Here, in the present disclosure, the decorative body includes gemstones, artificial gemstones, precious stones, imitation gemstones, etc., and in particular, gemstones, artificial gemstones, precious stones, imitation gemstones are collectively referred to as jewelry.
Also, in the present disclosure, the decorated product includes accessories. Examples of accessories include bracelets and wristwatches. The bracelet includes various known bracelets, for example, a bracelet for a wristwatch is also exemplified as one of the bracelets. That is, the accessory body to which the decorative member is attached may be an accessory.

Hereinafter, with reference to the drawings, the accessories and decorated products according to the present disclosure, and the manufacturing method and the decoration method of the accessories according to the present disclosure will be described.

The jewel 12 is fastened and fixed to the upper end of the base 16 by these four claws 14.

The base 16 has a hollow space penetrating in the axial direction, and is formed so as to have a substantially cylindrical shape. The base 16 is arranged so that the axial direction of the hollow space is the same as the height direction Z of the decorative member 10 (unit member 11), and the lower end portion and the upper end portion of the base 16 are opened, respectively. Has been done. A substantially circular upper opening communicating with the hollow space is formed at the upper end of the opened base 16. At the lower end of the open base 16, a substantially circular lower opening that communicates with the hollow space is formed. The upper end of the base 16 is one end on the side where the jewel 12 is fixed. The lower end of the base 16 is the other end of the base 16 opposite to the upper end of the base 16 and is a portion facing the bottom surface 108a of the recess 104. The jewel 12 is fixed to the base 16 in a state where the pavilion 12b of the jewel 12 is inserted into the hollow space (upper opening) of the base 16. Since the lower opening is formed at the lower end of the base 16, the weight of the decorative member 10 can be reduced. The base 16 may be formed not in a substantially cylindrical shape but in a tubular shape (hollow substantially columnar shape) in which a cross section orthogonal to the height direction exhibits a quadrangle or another polygon. The quadrangle or other polygon may be chamfered.

The base 16 has an inner peripheral surface on the hollow space side and an outer outer peripheral surface which is a surface opposite to the inner peripheral surface. The base 16 is provided with four openings 16a penetrating from the outer peripheral surface to the inner peripheral surface on the side surface portion which is a portion between the lower end portion and the upper end portion of the base 16. In the case of the first embodiment, one base 16 is provided with four openings 16a. Specifically, in the base 16, the front side surface portion and the rear side surface portion facing the connecting direction of the unit member 11 and the left side surface portion and the right side surface portion facing the width direction of the unit member 11 are provided, respectively. .. By providing the four openings 16a on the side surface of the substantially cylindrical base 16 at equal intervals in the circumferential direction, the weight of the base 16 can be reduced while ensuring the strength of the base 16. .. Further, since the structure is such that light easily enters the hollow space inside from the outside of the base 16, the amount of light incident on the jewel 12 can be increased.

The unit member 11 can be easily connected by the opening 16a provided in the base 16. Specifically, a connecting member 18 (see, for example, FIG. 4) connecting the unit members 11 is inserted through two openings 16a facing each other in the two adjacent unit members 11, and the base of each unit member 11 is formed. It is mounted on the table 16 and connected. The connecting member 18 is provided with four openings 16a in the base 16 at regular intervals. Therefore, when a plurality of unit members 11 are connected by the connecting member 18 to form the decorative member 10, the decorative member 10 is in the form of a single row according to the first embodiment, which exhibits a minus sign in a plan view. Can be formed into a form. Further, for example, it can be formed in a T-shaped form, a + (plus) sign, a crank-shaped form, or the like. In the present embodiment, the number of openings 16a provided in the base 16 is not limited, and the base 16 may be provided with three or less openings 16a, or five or more openings 16a may be provided. .. Further, the base 16 may be formed without providing the opening 16a. When the base 16 is not provided with the opening 16a, a plurality of unit members 11 may be connected by, for example, an adhesive. Since the base 16 has a substantially cylindrical shape as described above, the movable range of the unit members 11 connected by the connecting member 18 is widened, and the degree of freedom of decoration is increased.

Each opening 16a of the base 16 is formed in a shape having a rounded quadrangle with four curved corners when the unit member 11 is viewed from the front-rear direction or the left-right direction. In the present embodiment, the shape of the opening 16a is not limited, and the opening 16a may be formed in a shape such as a rectangle or a circle.

Each opening 16a is provided in a region substantially central in the height direction of the base 16. Therefore, the height from the upper end edge of the base 16 to the upper side portion 16b which is the upper straight portion of the opening 16a and from the lower end edge of the base 16 to the lower side portion 16c which is the lower straight portion of the opening 16a. Are approximately the same height as each other (see FIGS. 3 and 5). As a result, the strength of the base 16 can be stably secured even if the base 16 is provided with the four openings 16a. The upper side portion 16b of the opening 16a is a straight line portion of the opening 16a that is orthogonal to the height direction of the jewel 12 on the side close to the table surface 12a, and the edge of the opening 16a on the one end side of the base 16.

The lower side portion 16c of the opening 16a is a straight line portion of the opening 16a that is orthogonal to the height direction on the side far from the table surface 12a of the jewel 12, and the end of the opening 16a on the other end side of the base 16. It is an edge.

The four openings 16a are provided over a range of 30% or more of the total circumferential length (circumferential length) in the circumferential direction of the side surface portion of the base 16. That is, the total length of the four openings 16a in the circumferential direction is 30% or more of the total circumference of the side surface portion of the base 16. The total circumferential length of the four openings 16a may be 50% or more of the circumferential length of the base 16. Further, the total length of the four openings 16a in the circumferential direction may be 90% or less of the total circumference of the side surface portion of the base 16. By providing the opening 16a, it is possible to secure the strength of the base 16 and make it easier for light to enter the hollow space of the base 16.

In the case of the first embodiment, the upper side portion 16b of the opening 16a is arranged above the position of the curette 12c which is the lower tip portion of the jewel 12. As shown in FIG. 3, when the base 16 is viewed from a direction orthogonal to the vertical direction of the unit member 11 (that is, the axial direction of the base 16), one of the pavilions 12b of the jewel 12 is viewed from the opening 16a. You can see the part. Since light easily enters the jewel 12 from the opening 16a, the jewel 12 fixed to the base 16 can be made to shine more beautifully.

Considering the point of suppressing the adhesion of the adhesive 30a to the jewel 12, it is preferable that the curette 12c of the jewel 12 is arranged apart from the lower end edge of the base 16 in the height direction. In FIG. 3, the curette 12c of the jewel 12 is separated from the lower end edge of the base 16 in the height direction and is located slightly below the lower side portion 16c of the opening 16a. Therefore, the curette 12c of the jewel 12 is hidden in a portion of the base 16 below the opening 16a when the unit member 11 is viewed from a direction orthogonal to the height direction. In the present embodiment, the position of the curette 12c of the jewel 12 is not limited to this, and may be arranged within a range between the upper side portion 16b and the lower side portion 16c of the opening 16a provided in the base 16, for example. .. In this case, when the base 16 is viewed from a direction orthogonal to the vertical direction of the unit member 11, the curette 12c of the jewel 12 can be visually recognized from the opening 16a. The range between the upper side portion 16b and the lower side portion 16c of the opening portion 16a can be said to be the opening height range of the opening portion 16a.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, in the first embodiment, the decorative member 10 to which the four unit members 11 are connected is adhered to the inner surface of the recess 104 by using the adhesive 30a. By curing the applied adhesive 30a, a joint portion 30 is formed between the inner surface of the recess 104 and the decorative member 10. In the first embodiment, the joint portion 30 is formed over the entire bottom surface 108a of the recess 104, and is attached to the entire bottom surface 108a of the recess 104. Further, the joint portion 30 is attached to the outer peripheral surface and the inner peripheral surface of the lower end portion of the cylindrical base 16. The joint portion 30 is formed without being attached to the jewel 12 fixed to the base 16. Specifically, the surface of the joint portion 30 is arranged at a position closer to the bottom surface 108a of the recess 104 than the lower side portion 16c of the opening portion 16a provided in the base 16. In this case, the surface of the joint portion 30 refers to the surface of the entire surface of the joint portion 30 excluding the portion near the side wall surface 108b of the recess 104 which is easily affected by surface tension.

By forming the joint portion 30 with the adhesive 30a without adhering to the jewel 12, the decorative member 10 can be fixed to the recess 104 of the top portion 102 without impairing the original brilliance of the jewel 12. Further, by attaching the joint portion 30 to both the entire bottom surface 108a of the recess 104 and the lower end portion of the base 16, the decorative member 10 can be firmly joined to the recess 104.

In particular, in the first embodiment, the base 16 has a substantially cylindrical shape, and a substantially circular lower opening is formed at the lower end of the open base 16. The lower end of the base 16 is inserted into the adhesive 30a applied to the bottom surface 108a of the recess 104. Here, for example, if the base 16 has a case shape having a bottom as in Patent Document 2, the surface of the adhesive 30a and the bottom of the base 16 become parallel when the base 16 is inserted into the recess 104. .. Therefore, air bubbles may enter between the bottom surface 108a of the recess 104 and the bottom of the base 16. The joining force of the joining portion 30 is weakened by the air bubbles, and the base 16 may come off from the recess 104.

On the other hand, in the first embodiment, since the lower end portion of the base 16 is inserted into the surface of the joint portion 30 from a substantially vertical direction, it is difficult for air bubbles to enter. Further, by inserting the lower end portion of the base 16, the bubbles can be crushed and the air inside the bubbles can be released from the lower port to the hollow space. Since it is difficult for air bubbles to enter between the base 16 and the recess 104, the height of the jewel 12 at the upper end of the base 16 can be set to a predetermined height. Further, since the base 16 does not float with respect to the adhesive 30a, it is easy to position the base 16 when it is attached to the recess 104. Further, the joint portion 30 joins not only the outer peripheral surface of the lower end portion of the base 16 but also the inner peripheral surface. Therefore, even if the amount of the adhesive 30a is small, the bonding force can be strengthened, and the decorative member 10 is suppressed from falling off from the band 100. Regarding the amount of the adhesive 30a, it is desirable to obtain an appropriate amount in advance based on the shape (size) of the recess 104, the shape of the base 16, and the height of the curette.

The position and range of formation of the joint portion 30 by the adhesive 30a are not limited to those shown in FIG. It suffices if the joint portion 30 does not adhere to the jewel 12 and the decorative member 10 can be prevented from falling off. For example, when the curette 12c of the jewel 12 is located above the lower side portion 16c of the opening 16a, the surface of the joint portion 30 may be arranged at substantially the same position as the lower side portion 16c of the opening 16a.

Further, it is preferable that the surface of the joint portion 30 is arranged so as to be below the curette 12c of the jewel 12 and above the lower side portion 16c of the opening 16a. By forming the joint portion 30 of the opening portion 16a above the lower side portion 16c, it is possible to further suppress the dropout. Further, even if the thickness of the applied adhesive 30a is temporarily biased when the base 16 is inserted into the recess 104, the adhesive 30a can pass through the upper side portion 16b of the opening 16a, and the queue. It is possible to prevent the adhesive 30a from adhering to the let 12c. Further, the joint portion 30 may be attached to, for example, a portion above the lower side portion 16c of the opening portion 16a of the base 16. Specifically, the decorative member 10 can be more firmly joined to the recess 104 by providing the joint 30 between the side wall surface 108b of the recess 104 and the outer peripheral surface portion of the base 16 excluding the opening 16a. ..

As for the height in the cross section of the recess 104 shown in FIG. 3, the height of the surface (outer surface) of the frame portion 102 is higher than that of the table surface 12a of the jewel 12 when the decorative member 10 is mounted in the recess 104. Is set to. The height in the cross section of the recess 104 means the dimension from the bottom surface 108a of the inner wall surface 108 of the recess 104 to the surface of the top 102. That is, the height in the cross section of the recess 104 represents the depth of the recess 104 with respect to the surface of the coma portion 102. By providing the recess 104 at a depth at which the table surface 12a of the jewel 12 is lower than the surface of the frame portion 102, for example, the decorative member 10 is prevented from coming into contact with other members or the like. Further, as a result, it is possible to prevent the decorative member 10 from being loaded with a mechanical impact force due to contact with other members or the like. Therefore, the decorative member 10 is more effectively suppressed from falling off from the recess 104. In addition, the occurrence of scratches and chips on the surface of the jewel 12 is suppressed. Further, it is possible to prevent the decorative member 10 from being caught in clothes or the like.

In FIG. 3, the recess 104 is formed at a depth at which the table surface 12a of the jewel 12 is lower than the surface of the frame portion 102, but the depth of the recess 104 is not limited to this. For example, the recess 104 may be formed so that the table surface 12a and the surface of the frame portion 102 have substantially the same height. By making the table surface 12a and the surface of the frame portion 102 substantially the same height, light can easily be incident on the jewel 12, so that the jewel 12 can be made to shine more beautifully. As described above, the table surface 12a of the jewel 12 is the surface of the frame portion 102 in terms of the brilliance of the jewel 12, the suppression of the decorative member 10 from falling off, the suppression of scratches and chips of the jewel 12, and the suppression of being caught in clothing and the like. It is preferably the same height or lower than the surface of the coma portion 102. When emphasizing the brilliance of the jewel 12, the table surface 12a is larger than the surface of the frame portion 102 to the extent that the decorative member 10 is prevented from falling off, the jewel 12 is scratched or chipped, and the jewel 12 is caught on clothing or the like. It may have a raised portion.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, a gap is provided between the side wall surface 108b of the recess 104 and the decorative member 10 fixed to the recess 104 to allow light to enter. The gap is provided in the entire circumference of the decorative member 10. By providing the gap, light can easily enter the jewel 12 from the opening 16a of the base 16. In a plan view, the size of the gap between the side wall surface 108b of the recess 104 and the decorative member 10 in the width direction of the decorative member 10 is the distance from one end to the other end of the recess 104 (total width in the lateral direction). On the other hand, it is in the range of 0.5% to 10%. Even if the joint portion 30 adheres between the side wall surface 108b of the recess 104 and the outer peripheral surface of the base 16, the same effect is obtained when the joint portion 30 is transparent or is in a state close to transparent. Is obtained.

In the decorative member 10 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the jewel 12 is taken as an example as the decorative body, but the present invention is not limited to this, and jewels other than the jewel 12 may be used. Further, the unit member 11 of the decorative member 10 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 is formed in a rectangular shape in a side view, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the unit member 11 may be formed in a desired shape. Further, the base 16 and the unit member 11 of the decorative member 10 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 are formed in a substantially circular shape in a plan view, but are not limited to this, and may be formed in a rectangular shape. good.

Next, a preferable example in the method for manufacturing the accessory and the method for decorating the accessory according to the present embodiment will be described. Hereinafter, a method of attaching the decorative member 10 to the band 100 shown in FIG. 1 will be taken as an example, and the decoration method will be described together with the manufacturing method.

The method for manufacturing an accessory of the present embodiment includes a step of preparing a decorative member having at least one unit member in which the decorative body is fixed to a base by a holding portion (hereinafter, referred to as a decorative member preparation step). In the decorative member preparation step of the present embodiment, as an example, a decorative member is formed and prepared from the primary decorative member by cutting a primary decorative member in which two or more unit members are connected (hereinafter referred to as a cutting step). .. The primary decorative member is a primary product obtained in the previous stage of the decorative member.

In the decorative member preparation step, the decorative member 10 including the jewel 12 is prepared. FIG. 4 shows a cross-sectional view schematically showing an example of a primary decorative member applied to the accessory of the first embodiment. First, a plurality of bases 16 provided with four claws 14 at one end are prepared. The method of providing the claw portion 14 on the base 16 is not particularly limited, and a known means may be adopted.

Next, the plurality of bases 16 are connected by the connecting member 18 shown in FIG. Further, the jewel 12 is fixed to the base 16 by bending the claw portion 14 with the jewel 12 placed on the base 16. As a result, the chain member 20 (an example of the primary decorative member) shown in FIG. 4 in which a plurality of unit members 11 are connected by the connecting member 18 is obtained. The order in which the work of connecting the unit member 11 with the connecting member 18 and the work of fixing the jewel 12 to the base 16 is not limited, and either work may be performed first. The obtained chain member 20 is formed as a long-shaped primary decorative member in which two or more unit members 11 are connected in a chain shape. The chain member 20 can also be used as a chain member for manufacturing a tennis bracelet.

In the cutting step, long chain members 20 connected in a chain shape are cut to a desired length according to a required design. At this time, the chain member 20 is cut at the position of the connecting member 18. By cutting the long chain member 20, as shown in FIG. 5, a decorative member 10 in which a plurality of unit members 11 are connected is prepared for mounting in the recess 104 of the frame portion 102. FIG. 5 schematically shows an example of a decorative member applied to the accessory of the first embodiment. The decorative member 10 obtained by cutting from the chain member 20 may be formed of one unit member 11, or may be formed by connecting two or more unit members 11. The decorative member 10 shown in FIG. 5 is formed by connecting four unit members 11. The means for cutting the chain member 20 is not particularly limited, and known cutting means may be adopted. The cutting step may be one cutting or a plurality of cuttings of two or more times.

Since the cutting step is a step performed according to the design, the cutting step does not have to be performed. Depending on the required design, for example, one unit member 11 may be used as a single decorative member. That is, when a decorative member composed of a single unit (one unit member 11) is attached to the bracelet, the decorative member may be prepared by producing only one unit member 11. Further, when preparing a single decorative member, the cutting step does not have to be performed. When the decorative member 10 in which a plurality of unit members 11 are connected is manufactured in advance, the decorative member 10 in which a target number of unit members 11 are connected may be prepared without producing the primary decorative member. .. That is, when the decorative member 10 in which the unit members 11 are connected is directly prepared, the cutting step does not have to be performed. Even when a chain member in which a plurality of unit members 11 are connected is used as it is as a decorative member 10, the cutting step may not be performed.

The method for manufacturing an accessory of the present embodiment includes a step of forming a recess for mounting a decorative member on the accessory body (hereinafter referred to as a recess forming step). Further, the method of manufacturing the accessory of the present embodiment is a step of providing a joint portion between at least a part of the decorative member and at least a part of the inner surface of the recess and fixing the decorative member to the recess (hereinafter referred to as a fixing step). ). The fixing steps of the present embodiment include a step of applying an adhesive to at least a part of the decorative member or at least a part of the inner surface of the recess (hereinafter referred to as an adhesive applying step) and a step of inserting the decorative member into the recess. It has a step of arranging it at the position of (hereinafter, referred to as a decorative member insertion step). Regardless of the order of the adhesive applying step and the decorative member inserting step, either of them may be performed first. When the adhesive application step is performed after the decorative member insertion step, the gap provided between the side wall surface 108b of the recess 104 and the decorative member 10 is used.

6 to 8 are schematic views schematically illustrating an example of the method for manufacturing the accessory according to the first embodiment. Specifically, FIG. 6 shows the state of the cross section of the line AA in FIG. 2 after the recess forming step. That is, FIG. 6 shows a cross-sectional view after the recess 104 is provided in the frame portion 102 in the recess forming step. FIG. 7 shows the cross section of the line AA in FIG. 2 after the adhesive applying step during the fixing step. That is, FIG. 7 shows a cross-sectional view after applying the adhesive 30a to the bottom surface 108a side (bottom surface 108a and its periphery) of the recess 104. FIG. 8 is an explanatory diagram illustrating a fixing operation in the fixing step with respect to the cross section of the line AA of FIG. The fixing work is a work of fixing the decorative member 10 to the recess 104.

In the recess forming step, the recess 104 is formed on the surface of the coma portion 102 of the band 100 by means such as cutting. The recess 104 is formed so as to have a target opening area and depth corresponding to the size of the decorative member 10 (see FIG. 6). When cutting, the means of cutting is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include laser machining and mechanical machining (for example, tool machining). The depth of the recess 104 provided in the recess forming step is from the lower end edge of the decorative member 10 (that is, the edge opposite to the side where the claw portion 14 of the base 16 is provided) to the table surface 12a of the jewel 12. It is preferably larger than the height. The step of forming the recess 104 on the top portion 102 and its surface may be formed by combining, for example, forging, cutting, and polishing, or by combining metal powder injection and polishing. You may.

In the fixing step, first, an adhesive applying step is performed. In the adhesive applying step, as an example, the adhesive 30a is adhered to the inner wall surface 108 which is the inner surface of the recess 104 provided in the recess forming step, or to at least a part of the decorative member 10 excluding the jewel 12. In FIG. 7, the adhesive 30a is applied to the bottom surface side (bottom surface 108a and its periphery) of the recess 104 so as to have a substantially constant thickness. The range to which the adhesive 30a is applied is not limited to that illustrated in FIG. For example, the adhesive 30a may be applied to a part or the entire surface of the inner wall surface 108 of the recess 104. Further, the adhesive 30a may be applied to at least a part of the decorative member 10 instead of the inner wall surface 108 of the recess 104 without adhering the adhesive 30a to the jewel 12. For example, the adhesive 30a may be applied to at least a part of each unit member 11 forming the decorative member 10 without adhering to the jewel 12. The adhesive 30a is preferably used in a small amount in terms of suppressing adhesion to the jewel 12.

The type of the adhesive 30a is not particularly limited, and for example, a known adhesive such as a pressure-sensitive adhesive, a heat-sensitive adhesive, a thermosetting resin, or an adhesive made of a photocurable resin is applied. Among these adhesives 30a, silicone-based adhesives (adhesives having a siloxane skeleton) and epoxy-based adhesives (adhesives using resins having epoxy groups) should be used from the viewpoint of adhesiveness and durability. Is preferable. In particular, epoxy adhesives have strong adhesive strength. Therefore, the decorative member 10 can be adhered to the inner wall surface 108 of the recess 104 with a small amount. Further, the epoxy adhesive is preferable in that the decorative member 10 is prevented from falling off from the recess 104 and the adhesive 30a is also suppressed from adhering to the jewel 12.

As the adhesive 30a, an adhesive made of a photocurable resin (photocurable adhesive) is also preferable. This adhesive typically includes a UV curable adhesive. In order to obtain an appropriate adhesive force using this adhesive, the wavelength of light suitable for curing is selected, and the irradiation conditions are set so that the light reaches the adhesive (for example, the irradiation angle considering shadows and irradiation). Irradiate under appropriate irradiation conditions such as distance). The photocurable adhesive is suitable, for example, in the following points. (1) Even if the decorative member 10 fails to be fixed in the fixing step, it can be easily removed by washing, so that it is easy to redo. (2) There is no thickening and the manufacturing efficiency is excellent only by applying with a machine that employs a mechanism such as deposit and injection. (3) It is excellent in mass productivity because it can be cured by irradiating it all at once after application. When a photocurable adhesive is used, in the fixing step, in addition to the above-mentioned adhesive applying step and decorative member inserting step, the adhesive given to the decorative member inserted in the recess is irradiated with light (for example, ultraviolet irradiation). ) Is applied to cure the adhesive.

As for the adhesive 30a, it is preferable that the joint portion 30 formed by curing becomes transparent or almost transparent. By forming the joint portion 30 in a transparent or nearly transparent state, the presence of the joint portion 30 becomes inconspicuous. In addition, light is easily transmitted to the joint portion 30. Therefore, the band 100 is aesthetically pleasing. The method of applying the adhesive 30a is also not particularly limited. The means for fixing the decorative member 10 to the inner wall surface 108 of the recess 104 is not limited to an adhesive, and known fixing means such as brazing can be applied.

After performing the adhesive application step, the decorative member insertion step is performed. In the decorative member inserting step, the decorative member 10 is inserted into the recess 104 provided in the recess forming step, and the decorative member 10 is arranged at a target position in the recess 104. Further, for example, the decorative member 10 may be held while being held at a desired position until the adhesive 30a is cured. As a result, the adhesive 30a adheres to both a part of the inner wall surface 108 of the recess 104 and a part of each unit member 11 of the decorative member 10. After that, the joint portion 30 is formed by drying and curing the adhesive 30a, and by irradiating and curing the adhesive 30a with light when the adhesive 30a is a photocurable adhesive. The hardened joint portion 30 exists continuously between the inner wall surface 108 of the recess 104 and the base 16 of the decorative member 10. The band 100 and the decorative member 10 are joined via a joint portion 30, and the decorative member 10 is fixed in the recess 104 of the top portion 102 of the band 100. The joint portion 30 may be attached to at least a part of the base 16 of the decorative member 10. Further, the joint portion 30 may be attached to a part of the inner wall surface 108 of the recess 104, or may be attached to the entire surface.

By fixing and mounting the decorative member 10 one by one in the recess 104 of each frame portion 102, the band 100 for the wristwatch 200, which is an example of the accessory main body according to the first embodiment, is manufactured. Further, the band 100 is attached to the watch case 150 to obtain a wristwatch 200 which is an example of jewelry. A wristwatch 200 is provided in which the jewel 12 is easily attached by fixing the decorative member 10 to the recess 104 without impairing the original beauty of the jewel 12.

(Second Embodiment)
FIG. 9 is an enlarged plan view schematically showing a main part of the accessory (wristwatch 200X) of the second embodiment, similarly to FIG. 2 of the first embodiment (wristwatch 200). The accessory (wristwatch 200X) of the second embodiment is provided with a bottom hole 109 in the recess 104 of the top 102 of the accessory (wristwatch 200) of the first embodiment. Hereinafter, the same parts as those of the first embodiment will be omitted, and the parts different from the first embodiment will be described. In FIG. 9, for convenience, the position of the bottom hole 109 is shown for the recess 104x on one side (left side) by omitting the decorative member 10 and the joint portion 30x (see FIG. 10).

As shown in FIG. 9, the bottom hole 109 has a substantially rectangular shape in a plan view, and in the second embodiment, the bottom hole 109 has a shape substantially similar to the outer peripheral shape of the bottom surface 108x of the recess 104x. The bottom hole 109 penetrates in the central portion of the bottom surface 108x of the recess 104x of the top portion 102x in the depth direction of the recess 104x (see FIG. 10). Further, the symmetrical axis of the bottom hole 109 (hereinafter, also referred to as an axis) is the same straight line as the axis of the recess 104x. The bottom surface side portion of the recess 104x has a substantially rectangular frame shape with respect to the bottom hole 109. As shown in FIG. 9, the bottom hole 109 has a smaller size in the length direction X and a smaller size in the width direction Y than the decorative member 10. When the decorative member 10 is attached in the recess 104x, most of the lower ends of the base 16 of the four unit members 11 are arranged so as to be in contact with the bottom surface 108x of the recess 104x.

FIG. 10 is a cross-sectional view schematically showing a cross section taken along the line BB shown in FIG. The hatching of the jewel 12 is omitted for convenience. As shown in FIG. 10, in the wristwatch 200X, the adhesive 30a is adhered to the frame-shaped bottom surface 108x of the recess 104x and the side wall surface 108b of the recess 104x. Since the bottom hole 109 is provided, the joining range of the lower end portion of the base 16 is reduced, but by providing the joining portion 30x on the side wall surface 108b, the decorative member 10 can be firmly joined to the recess 104x. Further, since the base 16 is formed with a lower opening at the lower end and an opening 16a on the side surface, the adhesive 30a is applied from the outer peripheral surface side to the inner peripheral surface side of the base 16 as shown in FIG. Alternatively, it wraps around from the inner peripheral surface side to the outer peripheral surface side. By reducing the amount of the adhesive 30a, the decorative member 10 can be firmly joined by the recess 104x. Further, the adhesive 30a can be attached to the base 16 from below the jewel 12 by using the bottom hole 109. The joint portion 30 is likely to be formed so as not to adhere to the jewel 12.

As shown in FIG. 10, the bottom hole 109 is provided below each jewel 12 held on the base 16. Since each jewel 12 is exposed to light from the bottom hole 109, the brilliance of the jewel 12 can be increased. The adhesive 30a is less likely to adhere to each jewel 12, and the jewel 12 looks more brilliant. The shape of the bottom hole 109 is not limited to that described above, and may be such that light enters the jewel 12 from below and the decorative member 10 does not easily fall off from the recess 104x. For example, in the bottom surface portion of the recess 104x, a circular through hole (not shown) may be provided at a position facing each jewel 12.

(Third Embodiment)
The wristwatch 200Y of the third embodiment limits the shape of the connecting member 18 with respect to the wristwatch 200 of the first embodiment or the wristwatch 200X of the second embodiment. As an example of the limited connecting member 18, the connecting member 18y described later is used. Further, the wristwatch 200 is provided with two pairs of through holes (connecting holes 17) for attaching the connecting member 18y in place of the two openings 16a on the connecting side provided so as to face each other in the length direction X. And different from the wristwatch 200X. Hereinafter, the same parts as those of the first embodiment and the second embodiment will be omitted, and different parts will be described. In addition, in FIGS. 11 and 12 which will be described later, the illustration of the jewel 12 and the joint portion 30 is omitted for convenience.

FIG. 11 shows a main part of an example of the accessory of the third embodiment, and is a schematic view schematically showing a base 16y of the unit member 11y and a connecting member 18y before being inserted into the base 16y. The base 16y shows a state of being visually recognized from the side surface, and the connecting member 18y shows a state of being visually recognized from diagonally above. FIG. 12 shows a main part of an example of the accessory of the third embodiment, and is a schematic view showing a state in which two bases 16y are connected by a connecting member 18y and viewed from the bottom surface side of the base 16y. In FIG. 12, for convenience, the claw portion 14 and the opening portion 16a are not shown, and only a pair of connecting holes 17 are shown for one base 16y.

As shown in FIG. 11, in the third embodiment, one base 16y is provided with two pairs of connecting holes 17 and two openings 16a.
