  • FIELD OF THE INVENTION
  • The present invention generally relates to jewelry for displaying rotatable, interchangeable ornamental insets. The invention employs a mechanism to rotate and display multiple presentation modes
  • PRIOR ART AND BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Jewelry with Rotatable Ornamentation (0100)
  • FIG. 1 illustrates a diagram (0100) describing a prior art ring (0101) that includes a rotatably-mounted and removable ornamental elements. The ring (0101) includes a base element that has a rotatable spindle mounted to the base. The spindle supports plurality of vertically planar ornamental wheels that are arranged orthogonally to the spindle. This arrangement allows for ornamental wheels to be interchanged with different wheels for presenting alternate views. While, this arrangement may be used for smaller circular jewelry like beads, it does not allow for larger diameter ornamental insets that have coplanar surfaces, due to rotational space limitation of the base element. In addition, the arrangement does not provide a mechanism for ornamental insets that have horizontal coplanar surfaces, like a top surface and a bottom surface.
  • Multiple Tier Ring with Interchangeable Settings (0200)
  • FIG. 2 illustrates a diagram (0200) describing a prior art finger ring (0201) with ringlets mounted in a multiple tier arrangement. The ring (0201) is provided with plurality of ringlets mounted in a multiple tier arrangement about a rotatable axle. The axle projects from a base and establishes a vertical rotational axis. Each ringlet is offset with respect to the rotational axis. Because of this offset, unbalance mounting arrangement, momentum imparted to the ringlet causes it to rotate about the axis. This arrangement allows for interchanging ringlets for presenting multiple views. However, it does not provide a way for rotating ringlets about a horizontal axis that would enable multiple presentations of ringlet surfaces.
  • Interchangeable Ornament Jewelry Display (0300)
  • FIG. 3 illustrates a diagram (0300) describing a prior art for an interchangeable and rotatable jewelry display for beads or ornaments. The ring (0301) comprises a retainer, a catch that is inserted into the retainer, and a shaft for interchanging ornaments. The ornaments rotate orthogonally about the shaft. The catch rotates and slides into the retainer. One aspect of the embodiment addresses the need for a stable and secure closure mechanism. Another aspect of the embodiment allows easy interchangeability, but resists breakage due to overuse or forcing. While, the embodiment provides a way for secure closing, it does not enable a way to display multiple views of an ornamental inset that is rotatable. Furthermore, connection (0302) between the ears, limits horizontal rotation of coplanar ornamental insets.
  • Jewelry Article with changeable Setting (0400)
  • FIG. 4 illustrates diagram describing a prior art ring (0401) wherein an ornamental article displayed by the ring may be replaced. The ring (0401) comprises a frame member and a securing member. The frame member has two spaced apart parallel rings that are fixed to one another. The securing member secures the ornamental article to the frame member. The securing member is a ring inserted in the space between the parallel rings of the frame member in a movable manner. While this arrangement provides a means to interchange an ornamental article securely, it does not provide a mechanism to display multiple presentation modes of the same article.
  • Deficiencies in the Prior Art
  • The prior art as detailed above suffers from the following deficiencies:
      • Prior art jewelry rings generally do not provide a mechanism for displaying ornamental insets having horizontal coplanar surfaces, like a top surface and a bottom surface, which could be rotated.
      • Prior art jewelry rings generally do not provide a way for rotating ringlets about a horizontal axis that would enable multiple presentations of ringlet surfaces.
      • Prior art jewelry rings generally do not enable a way to display multiple views of an ornamental inset that is rotatable.
  • While some of the prior art may teach some solutions to several of these problems, the core deficiencies in the prior art systems have not been addressed.
  • OBJECTIVES OF THE INVENTION

  • System Overview (0500)
  • A preferred exemplary embodiment of the present exemplary embodiment may be seen in more detail as generally illustrated in FIG. 5 (0500), wherein a reusable support frame (RSF) (0510) comprises a generally supporting element shaped as circular, square, semi-circular, or U-shaped (0511). The inner surface of the RSF (0510) may generally adapt to a human finger. The RSF (0510) further comprises two upwardly protruding ears (0512, 0513) that are coupled to the supporting element (0511) at angular bends (0516, 0517). It is to be noted that there is no direct horizontal hard link in between the ear (0512) and the ear (0513). The absence of a horizontal hard link/connection enables unrestricted rotation of objects in the space between the ears. In one preferred exemplary embodiment, the ears (0512), (0513) may project upwards in a concave manner, in another preferred exemplary embodiment they may project upwards in a convex manner. The ears (“symmetric arcs”) (0513), (0512) may be configured with through holes (0514), (0515) respectively for accepting a rotating cylindrical member such as an axle, spindle, or other fastener. In another embodiment, through holes (0514), (0515) may be configured with a first retaining notch (FRN) and a second retaining notch (SRN) that may hold/seat cylindrical elements. The RSF (0510) may also function as a structural support for mounting ornamental insets.
  • A support frame axle (SFA) (0520) is an elongated element that comprises an outer cylindrical surface (OCS) (0521), a first distal end (FDE) (0522) and a second distal end (SDE) (0523). The FDE (0522) may further comprise a threading member that screws into a nut (0524). The SDE (0523) may further comprise a retaining head that holds one end of SFA (0520). The FDE (0522) and the SDE (0523) conform to the through holes (0514) and (0515) and/or FRN and SRN respectively. The FDE (0522), the SDE (0523), and the nut (0524) fasten the SFA (0520), so that ornaments that are mounted on SFA (0520) are securely held in place.
  • An ornamental elemental set (OES) (0530) comprises rotatable ornamental insets (ROIs) (0531), (0532), and (0533) that may be concentric to each other. The ROI (0531) may further comprise a first shaft aperture (FSA) (0534) and a second shaft aperture (SSA) (0535) for accepting SFA (0520). The ROI (0531) is configured to rotate axially about OCS (0521). Likewise, ROIs (0532), (0533) further comprise a first shaft aperture and a second shaft aperture. The ROI's (0532), (0533) are configured to rotate axially about OCS (0521). According to a preferred exemplary embodiment, ROI could be shaped as a circle, oval, square, triangle, hexagon, or a pentagon.
  • In another preferred exemplary embodiment, ears (0512), (0513) may be designed such that there is adequate clearance for OES (0530) to rotate axially about SFA (0520), without being constrained at angled bends (“neck joints”) (0516) and (0517) in RSF (0510). This enables rotation of ornamental elemental sets having horizontal coplanar surfaces, for example top and bottom surfaces of ROI (0531). For larger diameter OESs, a larger clearance space may be required to rotate the OESs. The neck joints (0516) and (0517) may be adjusted up or down accordingly to accommodate unconstrained movement of the OESs.
  • In one exemplary embodiment, OES (0530) may comprise multiple rotatable ornamental insets (ROIs) (0531), (0532), and (0533) that individually rotate about SFA (0520) and thus permit two or more views of each ROI to be presented as a multiple number of individual presentation modes within the overall context of the OES/RSF. In another embodiment of the present exemplary embodiment OES (0530) may contain at least 2 ROIs that may be rotated individually and presented as multiple presentation modes.
  • According to another exemplary embodiment, top surface of ROIs (0531), (0532), and (0533) may be a circular arrangement of diamonds and the bottom surfaces may be a circular arrangement of gem stones. A user may choose to display diamonds by rotating ROIs (0531), (0532), (0533) about SFA (0520) to display top surfaces or display gem stones by rotating ROIs (0531), (0532), and (0533) about SFA (0520) to display bottom surfaces.
  • In the aforementioned example, alternatively, a user may rotate ROIs (0531), (0532) to display top surface that has diamonds and may rotate ROI (0533) to display bottom surface that has gem stones. This enables the user to display two outer rings as diamonds and a central gem stone. Likewise, a user may choose to display two outer rings as gem stones and a central ring as diamonds. According to a preferred exemplary embodiment, a user may rotate a desired face to display and customize a presentation mode of the ROIs without removing the ROIs or the RSF.
  • According to further exemplary embodiment, the RSF (0510) may be made out of jewelry grade metal like gold, silver or platinum. Multiple OES's may be used in conjunction with a single RSF (0510) without the need for additional RSF's. This enables a user or consumer to customize and reuse a single RSF (0510). A combination of RSF reuse and OES interchangeability may reduce the cost of overall jewelry while providing multiple presentation views and modes. Similarly, multiple OESs may be used in combination with one RSF, enabling multiple presentation modes.
