- W' WHEELER RING Original Filed July 25, 1929 Patented May 17, 1932 UNITED STATES WILLIAM WEEELER, OF BICHMOND, KENTUKY, ASSIGNOE or' ONE-HALF 'ro WILLLAM SAMUEL DE BARDELEBEN, org RIGHMOND, KENTUCKY RING Application filed July 28, 1929, Serial No. 88939& Renwed 'March 25, 1932.
The object of this, my present invention, is the production of a finger ring in which the box on the shank of the ring is provded with spring means for engagng shoulders on stones or settings which are inserted n the box.
A further object is the provision of a finger ring that is designed to be cheaply Constructed and marketed, that shall include a mount o and stones or settings for the mount, each designed to be individually sold from the same counter, the stones or settings having difierent marks or letters on the outer faces thereof, so that certain desired stones may be purchased with a mount and inserted and retained in the box or the mount so that the purchaser will possess himself of either a signet ring or a ring which will bear the 1nsignia of a lodge or fraternity to which the purchaser belongs.
To the attainment of the foregoing the' invention consists in the improvement hereinafter described and definitely claimed.
In the drawings: Figure 1 is a side elevation of the improvement.
Figure 2 is an end elevation thereof.
Figures 3 and 3a illustrate in plan difierent types of stones or settings.
Figure 4 is an enlarged longitudinal sectional view through the box of the finger ring.
Figure 5 is a substantially similar View but showing the manner in which a stone or setting is inserted in the box.
Figure 6 is a view substantially similar to Figure 4 but illustrating a slight modification.
Figure 7 is a sectional perspective view of the Construction dsclosed by Figure 6.
Figure 8 is a perspective View of one of the stones or settin 's.
My improved finger ring Construction is especially designed for use by members of 45 high school fraternities and is designed to provide a cheap article of commerce in which mounts and separate stones or settings are arranged on the same counter of a jeweler or in a department store, so that a purchaser 50 or the like may likewise purchase stones or settings that have letters or indicia on the outer face thereof that will correspond to the-insignia of the fraternity ofwhich the purchaser of boththe mount and ring belongs.
'The mount and ring is of substantially ordinary Construction, the same including the usual shank 1 and the boX 2 for the setting. The box 2 in the present instance is of substantially rectangular formation, two of the opposed inner walls thereof being formed With verticallyextending recesses or depressions 3 and to the inner walls, adjacent to the upper ends of the said depressions there are fixed by means 4 the ends of flat but arched springs 5. The y free ends of the prings will normally be projected into the The setting may be made up of any desired number of stones, each having on its outer face a letter or insignia. As all of the stones are of a similar Construction a detail descrip tion of one will be taken as applicable to the remainder. In this connection it may be necessary to state that the box 2 is of a size to contain at least three stones of the desired width or four stones, two of which are of a greater width than the others as disclosed by Figure 3a of the drawings. In this instance the outer stones are in the nature of ornaments, while the central stones have on their outer faces the letters or insignia of the fraternity of the purchaser of the stone or setting.` Also the stones are of a depth approximately equaling that of the box 2. Each stone has its encls cut inwardly from points adjacent to its outer corners to provide its inner corners with shoulders or ledges 6 and these shoulders are designed to be contacted by the encls of the springs 5'.
when the stones are inserted in the box.
In Figures 6 and 7 the depressions 3' are formed on one of the opposed inner walls of the box and the second opposed inner walls are formed with notches 7 of the same length but of a greater width than that of the depressions 3. In the depressions there are fixed the upper ends of the arched springs 9 and the outward movement of the said springs is limited by the contact of the outer walls provided by the depressions While in other respeets the ring Construction is similar to that above set forth as are also'the settings received in the box 1. r
Having described the invention, I claim: A finger ring` comprisng a ringpprtion having a chamber providedrecessestin. i oppositely disposed walls to provide inner and outer shoulders extending substantially I 10 the full length'of said wallsgtension plates' Secured in the recesses*ad jacent-the-outer shoulders and projecting outwardly beyoi the lower shoulders, said chamber having re cesses in the other wallsnndoconmuzieatng 3 With the recesses of the first mentioned wall's to provide 'shouldersfor l-imting;thesmove,- ment 'of the tension.-platesoutwardlyoithe I first 'mentioned"recesses, a; setting located: ;in the eh amber, and shoulder& om. said: setting ir testmony whereof affix my' signature.
