[0025] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0026] Please see Figures 1 to 3 This embodiment of a gemstone inlay structure includes: a button lever module 1, an inlay 2, and a cover ring 3. The inlay 2 extends through one end of the cover ring 3 and is limited by a retaining ring 31 of the cover ring 3. One end of the button lever module 1 is welded into a section of the cover ring 3 and abuts against one side of the inlay 2. In other embodiments, the button lever module 1 and the cover ring 3 can also be fixed by an interference fit. It should be noted that the inlay can be a gemstone or an inlay such as glass.
[0027] The button lever module 1 of this embodiment includes: a lever 11 with one end formed into a ring and fastened to the cover ring 3; an outer shell 12 through which the lever 11 passes and is engaged with the outer periphery of the cover ring 3; an elastic element 13 disposed between the lever 11 and the outer shell 12; and a retaining ring 14 engaged with the lever 11 and positioning the outer shell 12. Specifically, the lever 11 includes a lever segment and a ring cap integrally formed at one end of the lever segment. A groove for engaging the retaining ring 14 is formed near the other end of the lever segment. One end of the outer shell 12 is hollowed out to form a locking groove a1, and a pipe a2 for conducting the locking groove a1 is integrally formed on one side of the locking groove a1. The lever 11 passes through the locking groove a1 and the pipe a2 in sequence, and a limiting part for limiting the elastic element 13 is formed in the channel within the pipe a2.
