Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a health promoting ring that fits all fingers and is made of titanium or a precious metal like gold, silver, palladium, or platinum. The ring has a fixed part made of a single substance or a resin mixture composition molded article of a metallic powder, and an elastic flexible part. The fixed part can also contain a powdered titanium obtained by burning a gaseous oxygen-hydrogen mixture in high-pressure water and heating metallic titanium using the resultant burning gas. The ring can also have a magnet embedded in the fixed part. The invention is based on the unique properties of titanium, such as its ability to improve blood circulation, promote metabolism, and activate blood or cell tissues, which can affect acupoints of the whole body and cure various maladies. The health promoting effects of the ring are fast-acting and long-lasting, and they can be used to treat general fatigue and debilities, as well as specific ailments like headaches and backaches.

Problems solved by technology

However, some of these products apparently lack effectiveness in promoting health or curing maladies or fail to substantiate such effectiveness.
Further, various problems have been pointed out in some products, such as unsatisfactory efficacy, slow action, relatively short duration of effectiveness, limited ranges of curing effectiveness, side effects such as cutaneous allergic reactions, unpleasant feeling when worn, costly raw materials, and cumbersomeness in use.
This slipper product claims that blood circulation of the sole is improved by the stimulation of the acupressure points by the curves or projections as well as the stimulation by titanium and that its production cost is low; however, the product has not been satisfactory in terms of effectiveness.
Application of new metallic titanium materials in ornaments or goods for daily use using these known technologies makes good use of characteristics of metallic titanium including physiological activities such as blood circulation promotion and electromagnetism to provide improved health promoting functions as compared to conventional health ornaments; however, these health ornaments have not always been satisfactory in terms of function and comfort when worn.
Further these health ornaments could not satisfy consumers' needs in terms of their efficacy.
Alteration of the ring size or purchasing a new ring is costly.
However, this type of conventional rings look unattractive showing the break and in the case where the rings are made of metal, repeated deformation for changing the ring diameter disadvantageously accelerates metal fatigue and the ring becomes in poor shape.
However, in this system, the alteration of the diameter of the ring is discontinuous and a suitable diameter cannot necessarily be obtained.
However, the structure of the ring is complicated and prevents stable continuous use.
