Benefits of technology

The present invention is a modular ring system for making a custom military service ring. It includes a circular ring body, an upper indicia display plate, and at least one side indicia display plate. The system can also have additional upper and side indicia display plates. The flat upper surface of the ring body is attached to the upper indicia display plate, which is smaller than the surface. The ring body also has a side recess that is attached to another side indicia display plate. The technical effect of this invention is the ability to create a unique and custom military service ring using a modular system that allows for easy customization and personalization.

Problems solved by technology

The school-style type military rings offered by these jewelers and many other manufactures are not desirable because they generally look gaudy and cheap.
The customization of these rings, however, is limited and the individual can select only a single insignia to be displayed.
These rings are not desirable because they are capable of displaying only a single insignia.

Abstract

The present invention is a modular ring apparatus and system solely for creating a specifically identified custom military service ring. The modular ring apparatus includes a circular ring body, an upper indicia display plate, and at least one side indicia display plate. The circular ring body includes a flat upper surface to which a corresponding upper indicia display plate is attached by means of an interconnecting post-and-aperture assembly. The upper indicia display plate is smaller than the flat upper surface. The circular ring body also includes at least one side recess to which at least one corresponding side indicia display plate is attached by means of another interconnecting post-and-aperture assembly. The system may include additional upper indicia display plates and additional side indicia display plates.
