This patent application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application 201930051335.X filed on Jan. 29, 2019, now pending, and Hong Kong Patent Application No. 19101827.6 filed on Jan. 31, 2019, now pending.
The present invention relates to the field of finger rings and more particularly, to finger rings with an adjustable size.
Finger rings are a type of jewelry that is worn on fingers. They consist of a ring fitting onto fingers. The rings are decorated around the ring with materials such as rare stones. At present, the traditional rings on the market are those with fixed inner diameters. When the finger diameter of a ring wearer fluctuates, the ring will not fit comfortably. This entails frequent modifications of ring size and the modifications are inconvenient to perform. Therefore, there is a need for an improved finger ring with an adjustable ring that is easy to operate.
The present invention is an adjustable finger ring. The adjustable ring consists of a ring with an opening including connection holes with a connection piece. The connection holes are set in proportion and the connection pieces are detachable after putting the connection piece into the connection holes. The connection piece includes fasteners on the outer side of the ring to regulate the size of the ring. The finger ring can adjust the size of its opening depending on the diameter of the finger to provide the finger with a proper ring size. After adjusting the ring, the fasteners are used to fix the size of the ring. The design is easy to operate and practical to use.
In addition, by the side of the opening there is only one connection hole. One side of the connection piece is fixed as a part of the finger ring, while its other side goes through the connection hole.
In addition, the connection is a screw shaft. The connection hole matches in size with the screw shaft. The fastener is a screw cap or a nut.
In addition, the connection piece has a center piece fixed on it, and the center piece is placed into the opening.
In addition, the center piece includes a support piece and a decorative piece mounted on the support piece. The support piece has a mounting hole that is a match with the connection piece. With the mounting hole, the support piece can be fixed on and detached from the connection piece.
In addition, the decorative piece is selected from the group consisting of diamond, jade, pearl, amethyst or crystal.
In addition, the outer surface of the ring is mounted with decorations.
In addition, the opening ends of the finger ring are shaped in an outward curve.
In addition, the finger ring is made of gold, platinum or pure silver.
In comparison with prevailing technologies, the present invention brings the following benefits:
The finger ring in the present invention has an adjustable opening size subject to the diameter of fingers, accommodating the finger with a proper ring size. After adjusting the ring, the fasteners are used to fix the size of the ring. The design is easy to operate and practical in use.
Further novel features and other objects of the present invention will become apparent from the following detailed description, discussion and the appended claims, taken in conjunction with the drawings.
Referring particularly to the drawings for the purpose of illustration only and not limitation, there is illustrated:
Although specific embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the drawings, it should be understood that such embodiments are by way of example only and merely illustrative of but a small number of the many possible specific embodiments which can represent applications of the principles of the present invention. Various changes and modifications obvious to one skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains are deemed to be within the spirit, scope and contemplation of the present invention as further defined in the appended claims.
The following is a detailed description of the present invention based on the drawings in
One technical model of the present invention is performed by having connection holes 21 by the side of the opening 20. The connection holes 21 are set in proportion and the connection pieces 40 are detachable after being placed into the connection holes 21. The connection piece 21 includes fasteners 31 on the outer side of the ring 10 to regulate the size of the ring 10. Because the connection piece 40 goes into the connection hole 21, frequent adjustments of the ring 10 size will cause damage such as aging and bending of the connection piece 40. Therefore, the connection piece 40 is detachable from the connection hole 21 to enable changes of connection pieces 40 from time to time. This is convenient and practical in use.
Another technical mode of the present invention is that by the side of the opening 20 there is only one connection hole 21. One end of the connection piece 40 is fixed as a whole with the finger ring 10, while its other end goes through the connection hole 21. The connection piece 40 has a fastener 31 against the connection hole 21. The fastener 31 is used to regulate the size of finger ring 10. In the present invention, the connection piece 40 is fixed into one piece (with the ring) by soldering.
More specifically, the connection piece 40 is a screw shaft 30. The connection hole 21 is a screw hole or a round hole that fits the screw shaft 30. The fastener 31 is a screw cap or a nut. Ideally, the screw shaft 30 will be T-shaped.
In addition, there is a center piece 49 mounted on the connection piece 40. The center piece 49 is placed into the opening 20. By adding a center piece 49 onto the connection piece 40, the ring is more appealing to satisfy consumer requirements.
To enhance the ring's attractiveness, the outer surface of the ring 10 is mounted with a decorative piece 52. The decorative piece 52 is one or more of the following: diamond, jade, pearl, amethyst or crystal.
In addition, the opening 20 ends of the finger ring 10 are shaped in an outward curve. The curve serves as a diversion for the ends of the opening and therefore enhancing the attractiveness of the ring.
In the present invention, the finger ring 10 is made of gold, platinum or pure silver.
Of course the present invention is not intended to be restricted to any particular form or arrangement, or any specific embodiment, or any specific use, disclosed herein, since the same may be modified in various particulars or relations without departing from the spirit or scope of the claimed invention hereinabove shown and described of which the apparatus or method shown is intended only for illustration and disclosure of an operative embodiment and not to show all of the various forms or modifications in which this invention might be embodied or operated.
