Abstract
Process for diamond covering bodies of substantially spherical or prismatic shape being used in jewelry, of the type which does not require removal of material are described. The single object is deposited within a seat which acts as a container and is successively subjected to a punching action. The process is characterized by the fact that the single object is automatically positioned at each punching action with a different portion of the surface of the object to be diamond covered.

Automatic processes for diamond covering essentially spherical objects such as small balls, polyhedral objects, anyhow prismatic such as bars, tubes, straps, chains and similar objects for use in the jewelry field of the type which avoids the removal of any material, in which a single object is deposited within a seat as a container and afterwards the same object is subjected to a punching action whereby a plurality of microcavities is generated on the surface of said object whereby the surfaces of each cavity are differently oriented thus increasing the plays of light, characterized by the fact that a single object is positioned automatically at each punching action with a different portion of its surface up to a complete treatment of the entire surface being diamond covered.
A machine for diamond covering bodies which have a spherical or polyhedral shape which may be called with the generic term small balls, characterized by the the fact that it comprises a storehouse (7) for balls (1) to be diamond covered, conduit (8) provided with pneumatic bulkheads (9) whereby the balls are deposited singularly within seat (2), said seat being capable of undergoing a displacement due to the action of a pneumatic cylinder (10) whereby each ball (1) is positioned corresponding to punch (4) above the elastic base (3) and after the punching operation of the entire surface of the ball has ended, the seat is displaced further to unload the ball into collector (11).
