ADJUSTABLE FINGER RING Filed Oct'. 18, 1937 INVENTOR ATTORNEYS Patented Jan. 18, 1938 UNITED STATES ADJUSTABLE FINGER RING Robert A. Russell, Rustburg, Va.
Application October 18,
5 Claims.
This invention relates to finger rings, and its general object is to provide a ring that is adjustable to fit fingers of various sizes, can be adjusted in an easy and expeditious manner, before or after being applied to the finger, and is held against any possibility of being moved out of adjustment, with the result my ring can be readily applied and removed with respect to a finger, and when applied thereto can be tightened to provide a snug fit, thereby preventing displacement or loss.
A further object is to provide an adjustable finger ring, that is simple in construction, and extremely efiicient in operation, use and service.
This invention also consists in certain other features of construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, to be hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawing and specifically pointed out in the appended claims.
In describing the invention in detail, reference will be had to the accompanying drawing wherein like characters denot like or corresponding parts throughout the several views, and in which:
Figure l is a side elevation illustrating a ring constructed in accordance with the present invention.
Figure 2 is a bottom plan view of the adjusting device which forms the subject matter of my invention.
Figure 3 is a longitudinal sectional view taken therethrough, with parts in elevation.
Figure 4 is a sectional view taken approximately on line 4-4 of Figure 3.
Figure 5 is a longitudinal sectional view taken at right angles to Figure 3.
Figure 6 is a view similar to Figure 3 with the locking member in operative position.
Figure 7 is a sectional view taken approximately on line 'I-'| of Figure 6.
Figure 8 is a View illustrating the ring applied to a finger and locked in adjusted position.
Referring to the drawing in detail, it will be noted that I have illustrated my adjusting device as being applied to a finger ring of the usual set type, but of course it will be understood that it can be applied to any type of ring, without departing from the spirit of the invention. The ring as shown includes a band I that extends into a mounting 2 for the set or stone 3, the band being split and terminating in right hand and left hand threaded shanks 4 and 5 disposed in spaced alignment with each other. The shanks are shown as being integral with the band, but they may be otherwise secured to the ends there- 1937, Serial N0. 169,730
of, and in any event are arranged at an angle with respect thereto, so as to be straight in alignment with each other.
Cooperating with the shanks 4 and 5 is a sleeve 6 to provide therewith a turnbuckle, in that the In order to hold the sleeve in adjusted position or against rotation, I have provided locking means therefor, and for that purpose, the sleeve is slotted diagonally as at 8, with theslot ex-- tending centrally through the sleeve witth respect to its longitudinal axis. Bridging the slot centrally thereof is a pivot pin 9 that is shown as being provided with heads in shaped to follow the transverse curvature of the sleeve which is of substantially oval configuration, as best shown in Figure 2, and having reduced ends through which extends the bore 1.
Mounted on the pin 9 is a turn button ll of substantially diamond shape in formation, to snugly fit within the slot 8 as best shown in Figure 3, so as to allow free rotation of the sleeve 6 for adjusting the ring when the latter is applied to the finger as shown in Figure 8. When the ring has been adjusted to the proper size, the turn button is disposed to the position of Figure 6 to extend transversely of the sleeve and outwardly beyond the sides thereof, to contact the finger, thereby preventing rotation of the sleeve, as will be apparent. The outer ends of the turn button II are rounded so as to prevent the same from injuring the finger, and the turn button frictionally fits the pin 9, so that it will be held in either of itspositions against casual movement. The slot 8 is of a size to extend beyond the ends of the turn button when the latter is positioned therein, as best shown in Figure 3, to provide ample space to receive the finger nail of the user in moving the turn button to its operative position of Figure 6.
From the above description and disclosure of the drawing, it will be obvious that a ring constructed in accordance with my invention can be readily adjusted to fit fingers of various sizes, and is held in adjusted position on the finger, to prevent displacement or loss therefrom.
It is thought from the foregoing description that the advantages and novel features of the invention will be readily apparent.
It is to be understood that changes may be made in the construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, provided that such changes fall within the scope of the appended claims.
What I claim is:
1. A finger ring comprising a band split to provide spaced ends, means movably mounted on the spaced end portions of the band to vary the diameter thereof for adjustment to fit fingers of various sizes and means eng-ageable with the finger and carried by the first means to hold the latter against movement.
2. A finger ring comprising a band split to provide spaced ends, a sleeve rotatably mounted on the spaced end portions of the band to vary the diameter thereof for adjustment to fit fingers of various sizes, and means pivotally secured to the sleeve and engageable with the finger to prevent rotation of the sleeve to hold the latter against rotation.
3. A finger ring comprising a band split to provide spaced ends, threaded shanks on the spaced ends and being aligned with each other, a sleeve threadedly mounted on the shanks to vary the diameter of the band for adjustment thereof to fit fingers of various sizes, and means pivotally secured to the sleeve and engageable with the finger to hold the sleeve against movement.
4. A finger ring comprising a band split to provide spaced ends, threaded shanks formed on the spaced ends and being aligned with each other, a sleeve having a threaded bore therein receiving the shanks for rotation thereon to vary the diameter of the band for adjustment thereof to fit fingers of various sizes, said sleeve having a slot therein, and means pivotally mounted in the slot for movement into and out of the same and engageable with the finger to hold the sleeve against rotation.
5. A finger ring comprising a band split to provide spaced ends, aligned threaded shanks formed on the spaced ends, a sleeve having a threaded bore receiving the shanks for rotation thereon to vary'the diameter of the band for adjustment thereof to fit fingers of various sizes, saidsleeve having a slot diagonally arranged therethrough and disposed centrally thereof, a turn button pivotally mounted in the slot and frictionally held therein, said turn button being movable into and out of said slot and of a length toengage the finger when moved out of said slot to hold the sleeve against rotation and said slot being of a length whereby access may be had to either end of the turn button for moving the latter out of said slot.
