Abstract
A modular finger ring assembly is provided. The ring assembly includes a circular band portion adapted to encircle a human finger. The band portion includes a notched portion located at its top. The ring assembly includes a metallic component configured to removably engage to the notched portion of the band portion. The metallic component includes a top wall, a pair of side walls, and a pair of horizontally extending flaps extending inward from the bottom of the side walls, forming a retaining space for receiving the notched portion. The metallic component further includes prongs extending upward from the top wall and configured for retaining one or multiple precious stones placed on top of the top wall.
Claims9
A flexible wearable finger ring assembly (200,300), comprising:
- a circular band portion (201) adapted to encircle a human finger, the circular band portion (201) comprising a notched portion (201f) located at a section on a top portion of the circular band portion (201), wherein the notched portion (201f) is of a circumferential length formed on the section of the top portion of the circular band portion (201) between two opposed side edges (201d,201e) of the circular band portion (201);
- a metallic component (202) configured to removably engage to the notched portion (201f) of the circular band portion (201), wherein the metallic component (202) comprises a top wall (102a), a pair of side walls (202b,202c) extending downward from the top wall (202a), and a pair of horizontally extending flaps (202d,202e) extending inward from the bottom of the pair of side walls (202b,202c), thereby forming a retaining space (202g) for receiving the notched portion (201f) of the circular band portion (201);
- and
- wherein the metallic component (202) further comprising
- a plurality of first prongs (202h), each of the plurality of first prongs (202h) including a first longitudinal post (202i), and a first tip (202j) angularly oriented with respect to the top wall (202a) of the metallic component (202) and interconnected using one or more first connecting bars (2021), and wherein the first tip (202j) of each of the plurality of first prongs (202h) is oval and extends outward from the first longitudinal post (202i) and towards a center of the metallic component (202);
- wherein, the outward extension of the first tips (202j) and the one or more first connecting bars (2021) help the plurality of first prongs (202h) to accommodate and retain a first precious stone (203);
- a plurality of second prongs (202m), each of the plurality of second prongs (202m) includes a second longitudinal post (202n) and a second tip (2020) angularly oriented with respect to the top wall (202a) of the metallic component (202) and interconnected using one or more second connecting bars (202p), and wherein the second tip (2020) of each of the plurality of second prongs (202m) is oval and extends outward from the second longitudinal post (202n) and towards a center of the metallic component (202);
- wherein, the outward extension of the second tips (2020) and one or more of the second connecting bars (202p) help the plurality of second prongs (202m) to accommodate and retain a second precious stone (204);
- a plurality of third prongs (202q), each of the plurality of third prongs (202q) includes a third longitudinal post (202r) and a third tip (202s) is angularly oriented with respect to the top wall (202a) of the metallic component (202) and interconnected using one or more third connecting bars (202t), and wherein the third tip (202s) of each of the plurality of third prongs (202q) is oval and extends outward from the third longitudinal post (202r) and towards a center of the metallic component (202);
- wherein, the outward extension of the third tips (202s) and the one or more third connecting bars (202t) help the plurality of third prongs (202q) to accommodate and retain a third precious stone (205);
- and
- wherein, a pair of prongs of the plurality of first prongs (202h) are conjoint with a pair of prongs of the plurality of second prongs (202m), and a pair of prongs of the plurality of first prongs (202h) are conjoint with a pair of prongs of the plurality of third prongs (202q) and angularly oriented to hold the first precious stone (203), the second precious stone (204), the third precious stone (205) in non-overlapping arrangement.
