AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing box-type loose stone cases with transparent windows and white fluorescent bases hinder the observation of gemstone fluorescence reactions due to interference from the base's fluorescence under UV light, necessitating stone removal for inspection.

Method used

A white non-fluorescent material is used for the base of the box-type case to allow fluorescence observation without removing the stones.

Benefits of technology

Enables direct observation of gemstone fluorescence within the case, enhancing inspection convenience and accuracy.

Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This device is a box-type case for displaying and storing loose gemstones with a transparent window, and the base is made of a white, non-fluorescent material. [Background technology]

[0002] Box-type loose stone cases with transparent windows allow the loose stones inside to be visually inspected while they are still in the case, and are widely used for display and storage. Generally, for colored loose stones, the loose stones are placed on a white base to help visually recognize their color.

[0003] In recent years, inspection and display methods that check for fluorescence when gemstones are exposed to ultraviolet light have become common. However, the white base shown in

[0002] has the property of fluorescing strongly under ultraviolet light, making it difficult to observe the fluorescent reaction of the loose stone itself. Therefore, in order to observe the fluorescent reaction, it was necessary to remove the loose stone from the box-shaped loose stone case with a transparent window, place it back on a non-fluorescent base, and then expose it to ultraviolet light to check the fluorescent reaction. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] This device makes it possible to check the fluorescent reaction caused by ultraviolet light without removing the loose stones from a box-shaped loose stone case with a transparent window. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] A white non-fluorescent material is used for the base of the box-shaped bare stone case with a transparent window. [Effects of the Invention]

[0006] Since the fluorescent reaction to ultraviolet light can be confirmed without removing the loose stones from the loose stone case, it is possible to identify the type of gemstone by checking the fluorescent reaction and to improve the convenience of expressing the fluorescent reaction during display. [Means for solving the problem] [Brief explanation of the drawings]

Claims

[Claim 1] The base of the loose stone case, which is used to display and store loose stones, is made of a white, non-fluorescent material.
