CARRIER FOR TRANSFERRING OBJECTS
A carrier for transferring objects is provided. The carrier includes a flexible body having a first surface, a second surface, a plurality of transfer parts and an initial rolling area. The second surface is opposite to the first surface, the plurality of transfer parts are provided between the first surface and the second surface and the initial rolling area is located on an edge portion of the flexible body. A plurality of decoration objects are respectively disposed in the accommodating space of the plurality of transfer parts. Pressure is exerted on each transfer part by rolling up the flexible body from the edge portion of the initial rolling area and pressing on a press portion when the flexible body is flatly disposed on an external carrier, such that each decoration object is detached from the corresponding transfer part and attached to the external carrier.
Method and tooling for centering and shaping an irregularly shaped object
A center-cast tool for casting a non-uniform object is provided. The center-cast tool has a body having a casting bay recessed into the top side of the body. A base forms the bottom of the casting bay. First and second apertures extend through the base and the bottom side. The second aperture intersects the first aperture in perpendicular orientation to the first aperture to form an aperture intersection. The aperture intersection forms four opposing right angles on the base at the center of the bay. The distance between adjacent right angles in the base is equal to the length of each side of the bezel of a jewelry article into which the finish machined irregular object will be set. In another embodiment, a first release hole extends through the base and the bottom side on a first side of the aperture intersection.
Double Ended Hand Tool
A double ended hand tool created to pick up place and position flatback crystals, gems or other tiny items is disclosed. The tool contains a hollow, conical end which securely encases each crystal allowing the operator to easily position the crystal with no slip. The tool has a first end and a second end coupled by a shaft. The first end has a wax tip which allows the user to pick up crystals or other small items. The second end has a hollow narrow extended portion which allows the users to manipulate the crystal or other small items.
Method and device for integrating gemstones in glass
A method and a device for encasing gemstones, such as diamonds, in glass. In order for their optical effects and appearance to be maximized, the gemstones are placed at a defined position and at a defined orientation. A suction cannula is provided for that purpose with an opening to fit the gemstone and to hold the gemstone by vacuum. Guide elements, such as spirals or meshes, are carried on the suction cannula so as to assure even distancing from the walls of the glass tube into which the gemstone is inserted.
TIMEPIECE COMPONENT
Disclosed is a timepiece component including at least one housing intended to receive at least one precious or non-precious stone and including at least one first end, referred to as the setting end, and a rail. The rail is located on the periphery of the housing, and is arranged to allow the stone or stones to be inserted into the rail at the first end of the housing, such that the stone or stones can slide in the rail along the longitudinal axis of the housing, and to hold the stone or stones once inserted into the rail in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the housing.

Precious stone setting
A bezel setting comprises: a bezel body having a circumscribing wall with a given body thickness, an upper surface sized to enable a corresponding pavilion surface of a precious stone to rest thereon, and a bendable lip substantially surrounding the upper surface of the bezel body, the lip having an interior surface shaped to be substantially matched and complementary to an exterior surface defining a girdle surface of the precious stone, and the lip has a thickness dimension that is substantially smaller than said body thickness of said bezel body. The lip is made of a material that is compressible and bendable so it can be bent over to tightly wrap the girdle and slightly cover a crown region of the precious stone.
BEAD AND RHINESTONE POSITIONERS
A tool kit includes a pair of bead and rhinestone positioners. The first positioner includes a positioning shaft attached to a first mounting thimble. The second positioner has a holding adhesive-bearing shaft attached to a second mounting thimble. The first and second mounting thimbles mount on end phalanxes of human hand digits. The positioning shaft projects outwardly along a direction aligned with the phalanx upon which the first mounting thimble is mounted. A positioning end is disposed away from the first mounting thimble. The holding adhesive-bearing shaft projects outwardly along a direction aligned with the phalanx upon which the second thimble is mounted. A holding adhesive spaced apart from the second mounting thimble is disposed on the holding adhesive-bearing shaft.
