FINGER RING Filed May 16, 1959 INVENTOR W706 Irvin Ear/f OR EY Patented Dec. 26, 1939 UNITED STATES PATENT orrcs FINGER RING Moe Manne and Irving Frank, New York, N. Y. Application May 16, 1939, Serial No. 273,840
1 Claim.
This invention relates to finger rings and more particularly to that type of ring in which a plurality of stones or gems are mounted.
The object of the invention is to provide a ring wherein the mounting or settingof the stones is facilitated; wherein the appearance of the ring and the stones set therein is enhanced; wherein several diiierent metals may be employed for the ring shank and settings respectively and numerous other advantages acquired.
More particularly, the invention contemplates the provision of a finger ring, provided with one or more rows of cup-shaped depressions within each of which is permanently attached, by soldering or the like, a gem setting for the reception of a stone, whereby each stone in the row will be provided with its own setting, yet a co-operative result will be obtained between the settings resulting in the appearance of larger stones than actually used; resulting also in the production of firm and secure mountings for the stones; permitting also the repair or replacement of any one setting at anytime without affecting the others, and resulting in numerous other advantages clearly apparent to those skilled in this'art.
In the accompanying drawing, wherein an embodiment of the invention is shown, Fig. 1 is a side elevation, with parts in section, of a finger ring constructed in accordance with the invention; Fig. 2 is a transverse section through the portion of the ring in which the gem settings are located; Fig. 3 is a plan View of a portion of the ring; Fig.
. 4 is a transverse section through a modified structure; and Fig. 5 is a side elevation of a different form of ring.
In the drawing l indicates the shank of a ring which may be of any suitable metal, the same being provided with a continuous or aligned row of enlargements 2,,each of the enlargementsbeing formed with an opening 3 extending through it, the upper portion of the opening being cupshaped substantially asshown at 4. Each of the openings is adapted to receive a setting 5 having a body portion 7 fitting snugly within the opening 3 and being adapted to be permanently secured therein as by being soldered or by any other suitable method of attachment.
Extending upwardly from thebody portion 1 of the setting are a plurality of prongs 6 which re- ,ceive and hold a stone 8 by being extended thereover in the conventional way. It will be clear from the foregoing that the settings 5 mounted in each of the openings 3 may be made of a material different from the body of the ring, or it may be of the same material and each setting is adapted to receive and retain a stone 8. The settings being made independently from the body of the ring and permanently secured therein, may, however, be independently removed in case of damage to any one of them or for the replacement of a stone The structure'described is particularly adapted for use in wedding rings which are partially surrounded by stones and which include as a part of the design one or more rows of stones or it may be adapted for use inconnection with engagement rings such as shown in Fig. 5, having the enlargements 2 disposed on opposite sides of a central large setting iii, in which the larger stone or solitaire is mounted. The shape of the openings 3 through the ring may be changed to suit different forms of settings, as for example, in Fig. i, where the opening through which the setting extends is of smaller diameter toward the top of thering and larger at the bottom. The number of settings employed in each ring, the arrangement of the same, the openings through the ring in which the settings aremounted and the shapeithereof may be modified to suit various design requirements without departing from the spirit of the invention.
The design of rings made in accordance with the invention may be materially altered from those shown in the drawing and various'other modifications may readily be made as will be understood by those skilled in the art.
What we claim is: I
A finger ring or similar article of jewelry comprising, a ring shank formed with a plurality of aligned apertures each of which is adapted for the reception of a gem-holding setting, each of said apertures comprising an upper cupped portion and a lower bore extending from the narrower end of the cupped portion to the inside or" the shank and forming an integral continuation of the cupped portion, a setting held in each of the apertures, said setting having a pronged upper end and a lower base portion, the base portion fitting within the bore and secured therein, the pronged portion of the setting being located within the cupped portion of the aperture and being extended over a gem to hold the lower portion of the same seated in and surrounded by the cupped portion of the setting, the inside surface of the cupped portion comprising a continuous, angular and annular reflecting surface extending around the pronged upper end of the setting and exposed between the prongs thereof, said surface being directly formed on and constituting an integral part of the shank of the ring.
