Description
FINGER RING STRUCTURE 'Filed March '7, 1928 v Z3 In 17 Patented July 16, 1929.
UNITED STATES JOSEPH CHERNICK, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
FINGEE -RING STRUCTURE.
Application filed March 7, 1928. Serial No. 259,877.
with novel and unique means whereby the stone, gem, or certain other adornments, may be removed and other jewels substituted at will.
I-Ieretofore ithas been the practice to provide mountings for gems wherein the latter are adhesivcly secured to the ring or similar style of jewelry, and in some instances resilient means is provided for the above purpose. Under these circumstances it is necessary to use special tools in placing or mount- .ing a gem and ofttimes skilled labor is re quired in this work.
It is therefore the primary object of my invention. to provide means whereby a gem or stone of various kinds may be removed from a ring and a new one substituted without the exercise of expert knowledge or the use of special tools.
Another object is to provide a novel ring band embodying a recessed portion wherein a stone may be mounted withoutdanger of accidental displacement thereof during the ordinary usages of a ring.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a novel closure for the stone or gem wherein the latter is protected from injury and whereby said gem is exposed through a top opening.
Still another object is the provision of novel and unique means for securing the gemclosure to a ring band to permit convenient detachment thereof and subsequent disassembling of the component parts.
A still further object is to provide a frame member adapted to cooperate with a gem or stone closure whereby the gem or stone is tightly secured therein.
lVith these objects in View, together with others which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the novel formation, combination and arrangement of parts, all as will be described more fully hereinafter, illustrated in the drawings, and particularly pointed out in the claim.
In said drawings:
Figure 1 is an elevation of a ring embodying my invention.
Fig. 2 is a plan view thereof.
Fig. 3 is an elevation of a ring band with the gem or stone closure removed to depict the recess therein.
Fig. 4 is a plan view of Fig. 3.
Fig. 5 is an enlarged sectional view, taken substantially on the plane of the line 55 of Fig. 2, to illustrate the co-relation of certain parts.
F ig. 6 is an elevation showing the several parts detached; and v Fig. 7 is a slightly modified form of ring structure.
Referring now in detail to the accompanying drawings, wherein like characters of reference denote similar parts throughout the several views, let 1O denote the band portion of a ring having its enlarged frontal portion 11 provided with a transverse recess 12, (see Fig. 3), into which is received the gem-closure 13, shown in Fig. 1.
Said gem-closure 13, shown in Figs. 1 to 6 inclusive, is rectangular in form, having an open bottom, and side and end walls, the top thereof having asight opening 1 1 bounded by the inturned flanges 15 which partly embrace the marginal top edges of a gem or stone 16 for the obvious purpose of preventing its accidental release from said closure 13.
Ilponinspection of Figs. 1 and 6 of the drawings it will be noted that said stone 16 is much thinner than the internal depth of said closure 13 and that I have provided insertible means in the form of a frame 17 whose marginal upper edge receives the basal edges of said stone 16 to position the same within the upper portion of said closure. In View of this construction a relatively thin stone may be used and since the same is concealed from view within the closure the same effect is created as in the case of a relatively heavy or thick stone, which naturally, in its use, increases the cost of the piece of jewelry.
In the assembling of the stone 16, the closure 13 is inverted from the position shown in Fig. 6, whereupon the said stone is dropped therein and the frame 17 inserted to locate the former 'directly beneath said flanges 15. The parts are now ready for placement within the recess 12 of said frontal portion 11.
Reverting now to the description of the ring band 10, it will be noted upon inspeo tion of Fig. l that said frontal portion 11 is provided with a pin 24, (see Figs. 5 and 6) eX- tending from one side wall thereof, whereas the opposite side wall is supplied with an aperture 25 to be threadedly engaged by said setscrew 23, as will presently appear.
The stone or gem 16' being positioned within the closure 13, the assemblage, with the frame 17 is placed over said recess 12 and the pin 24 inserted in aperture 21 in said ear 19. The assemblage is now dropped into said recess 12 and the setscrew 23 applied into said threaded aperture 25 to firmly secure the parts in the final position indicated in Fig. 5. It will be noted that the bottom marginal edge of said frame 17 is flush with the bottom edge of said closure 13 and hence the stone is firmly and tightly held in position. Also the internal dimension of said frame coincides with said opening 18 to provide the illusion of a continuous opening as in the more expensive settings.
When it is desired to remove the stone, it is only necessary to partially unscrew said setscrew 23, whereupon the closure and its associated parts may be bodily removed, and a different stone, or a similar stone, bearing a different letter than that indicated in Fig. replaced. It is obvious that the sides of the recess 12 positively cooperates with the aper tured ears and setscrew means to maintain the closure in a fixed position at all times.
While the herein disclosure of the idea appears to present a rectangular closure member 13 as the preferred form it will at once be appreciated that said closure may assume other shapes, as for instance, oval, or circular as shown in Fig. 7 of the drawings. In this particular instance the recess will have arcuate sides 12 and the side walls of the closure 13 will be circularly disposed. In all other respects the construction is fundamentally the same, and hence, while the present is a disclosure of the preferred embodiments of the invention, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited thereto, as various changes in the minor details of con struction, proportion and arrangement of parts may be resorted to Without departing from the spirit of the invention as defined in the appended claim.
I claim:
A finger ring structure comprising a band including a frontal portion having a recess, apertured ears located. adjacent said recess, a closure member having top inturned flanges adapted to be positioned in said recess, a stone mounted in said closure member, a frame adapted to be inserted within said member to support said stone and adapted to position the upper face of the latter against the flanges of said closure, a pin carried by said closure and adapted to be received within one of said apertured ears and means associated with the other apertured ear for detachably securing said closure Within the recess of said frontal portion.
In testimony whereof I atlix my signature.
JOSEPH CHERNIGK.
