Description
D. J. LUND FINGER RING ASSEMBLING AND RETAINING MEANS Filed July 8, 1955 INVENTOR.
Donald J Luna United States Patent" fiice;
2,761,294 Patented Sept. 4,195}? 2,761,294 FINGER RING A'SSEMBLING A'ND RETAINING MIEANS Donald J. Lund, Bismarck, N. Dak. Application July 8, 1955, Serial No. 520,738 2 Claims. (Cl. 63-152) This invention relates, broadly construed, to means whereby two finger rings, a diamond ring and wedding ring, for example, may be paired and maintained in such paired relationship on a single finger of the wearer.
Jewelers are repeatedly called upon to cope with the problem of enabling the wearer of a finger ring, which is too large, to solve the problem so that the ring will stay in its intended position, especially a diamond or an equivalent ring. Keeping in mind the fact that the knuckle on the ring finger has to be cleared by the ring when it is applied, the ring, if it is loose, will twist and turn in a well known manner. Various slack take-up and play compensating devices are, of course, available to remedy the situation. It is an obvous object here to structurally, functionally and otherwise improve upon similarly constructed and performing prior art adaptations and, in doing so, to appropriate a construction which, it is believed, will not only satisfy the manufacturing requirements of manufacturers, ments of jewelers and retailers, and, more importantly, the needs of the wearers of finger rings.
It is also generally well recognized in the field of invention under consideration that adapters and finger ring retainers which overcome undesirable looseness are of many and varied styles and forms. The instant invention is an improvement in that it does two things; clamps two rings together in spaced parallel axial factory and effective manner.
Other objects, features and advantages will become more readily apparent from the following description and the accompanying sheet of drawings.
In the drawings:
Figure l is a perspective view of an exploded type showing the ring assembling and finger adapting and holding device constructed in accordance with the invention;
Figure 2 is an device is used;
Figure 3 is an edge elevation, that is, a view observing the illustration in Figure 2 in a direction, let us say, from right to left; and
Figure 4 is an enlarged fragmentary section on the line 4-4 of Figure 2, looking in the direction of the arrows.
Since it is admitted that retainers for single finger it will be clear that the subject matter and namely, a so-called diamond ring A and a. wedding band or ring B. The latter is not detailed here, since the concept involves elevational view illustrating how the worn on a single finger.
The invention in its preferred embodiment is char- 2 acterized by suitable means, a holder for example, which will function to assemble the rings in the order stated and will keep the same in this relationship and. will at: the same time provide necessary slack take-up or compena sating means to cause the rings to stay put.
More specifically, the holder is preferably, but not necessarily, of a dual type and its principal part is denoted by the numeral 6. It is of short arcuate form in elevation, and is characterized by a pair of open-ended channel-shaped individual ring receivers 8 and 10, respectively. These are virtual duplicates one of the other, and they are arranged in spaced parallel relation for the obvious reasons revealed, and their inner channel walls 12 and 14 are disposed in closed spaced parallelism. In fact, these walls are joined by a correspondingly curved or arcuate part which is here referred to as a web 16. Midway between the ends of the two channelshaped receivers 8 and 10, there is a block-like boss 18 which, as shown in Figure 4, has a vertical axial screw threaded socket 20 to accommodate the shank 22 of an assembling screw or equivalent headed fastener. This passes through a screw hole 24 in an arcuate resilient sired.
The invention is therefore characterized by two units; namely, the dual hold r 6 with its channel-shaped ring band to serve not only as means for clamping the rings 26 but also affording the retention action of the free end portions 28-48.
The foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the invention.
operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the invention as claimed.
What is claimed as new is as follows:
means for a pair of finger.
trally disposed arcuate portion removably attached to an intermediate portion of said holder, said band except for said attached portion being completely free of connection with the holder and having arcuately shaped end portions constituting self-adjusting spaced take-up adapters, said member being of a normal radius less than the radius of the inside surface of said rings and having lengthwise edge portions overlapping the respective channel portions of said receivers in a manner to clampingly retain the respective rings in their respective receivers.
