Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a ring.

Background Art

[0002] Conventionally, rings of sizes corresponding to the dimensions of a user's finger have been purchased. After purchase, the size of the ring may be adjusted to fit, for example, due to a change in the thickness of the finger. When adjusting the size of a ring, for example, a portion on the palm side of the ring body of the target ring is cut, the circumference of the ring body is adjusted, and then the cut portions are joined by brazing to form a ring with an adjusted size (for example, Patent Document 1).

[0003] On the other hand, there are known free-size rings that can adjust the size of the ring without the need to perform operations such as cutting and joining by brazing on the ring body.

[0004] For example, Patent Document 2 discloses a pair of rings whose one ends are rotatably connected to each other. In this ring, a long spring member is disposed at the connecting portion. This ring is an open-and-close type ring that utilizes the elastic force of the spring.

[0005] For example, Patent Document 3 discloses a ring formed by fixing two covering rings connected via a bridge to a ring body.

[0006] For example, Patent Document 4 discloses a ring provided with an adjustment notch for the ring, and is deformable in a direction to widen the interval between both end portions in contact with this notch, and in a direction to narrow it. A plurality of deformation grooves configured in a specific shape are provided on the inner surface of this ring.

Prior Art Documents

Patent Documents

[0007]

Patent Document 1

Patent Document 2

[0008] In the ring disclosed in Patent Document 1, the solder used for brazing is often softer than the material that makes up the ring body. Therefore, when pressure is applied to the ring while it is being worn, the ring body may deform. Furthermore, if the ring body is made of, for example, an inexpensive material, the cost of resizing may not be worthwhile.

[0009] The ring disclosed in Patent Document 2 is difficult to manufacture due to its complex structure, which also increases manufacturing costs. Furthermore, because it is formed in an openable / closable manner using a spring component, it may have drawbacks in terms of durability to withstand long-term use.

[0010] The ring disclosed in Patent Document 3 has a fixed design due to its structure, which limits the freedom of design. The ring disclosed in Patent Document 4 may cause discomfort to the finger if worn for a long period of time, as multiple deformation grooves formed on the inner surface of the ring press against the finger. Furthermore, the rings disclosed in Patent Documents 3 and 4 have a shape in which a part of the ring body is open, but when worn normally, this gap is located on the palm side of the finger. As a result, the user may feel anxious that the ring may fall off their finger.

[0011] The objective of this invention is to provide a ring that is one-size-fits-all, offers a high degree of design freedom, minimizes discomfort when worn, and provides improved stability when worn. [Means for solving the problem]

Brief Description of the Drawings

[0024] [Figure 1] It is a schematic perspective view schematically showing an example of the ring according to the present embodiment. [Figure 2] It is a schematic plan view schematically showing an example of the ring according to the present embodiment. [Figure 3]This is a schematic perspective view illustrating another example of the ring according to this embodiment. [Figure 4] This is a schematic plan view illustrating another example of the ring according to this embodiment. [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0025] The following describes an example of a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The present invention is not limited to the content of the embodiment.

[0026] The ring according to this embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that in the drawings, some parts have been enlarged or reduced in size for the purpose of facilitating the explanation.

[0027] Figures 1 and 2 schematically represent one embodiment of the ring according to this embodiment. As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the ring 100 comprises a ring body 10 and a decorative element 30 provided on the ring body 10. The ring body 10 is a component worn on the finger of a user for normal use and extends along the circumferential direction of the finger. Here, the circumferential direction refers to the direction along the extending direction of the ring body 10, for example, the direction from the first end 11 to the second end 12, or the direction from the second end 12 to the first end 11. The user can put on and take off the ring 100 in the finger insertion / removal direction D1. The ring body 10 has an outer circumferential surface 10A and an inner circumferential surface 10B. The inner circumferential surface 10B is the part that the finger contacts when the finger is inserted. The outer circumferential surface 10A is the part other than the inner circumferential surface 10B and is the part that is visible to the person inserting the finger or to others when the finger is inserted. In the ring body 10, the inner circumferential surface 10B is provided flat, and the outer circumferential surface 10A is also provided flat, so the ring body 10 is formed in a so-called flat shape. The ring body 10 has a first end 11 and a second end 12 that are spaced apart from each other, and there is a first gap 41 between the first end 11 and the second end 12 that connects the outer circumferential surface 10A and the inner circumferential surface 10B of the ring body 10. The first end 11 and the second end 12 are positioned on the back of the hand (back of the hand side) when the ring body 10 is normally worn on a finger. The decorative element 30 is provided on both the first end 11 and the second end 12. In the illustrated example, it is provided on both, but it is not limited to this, and the decorative element 30 only needs to be provided on at least one of the first end 11 and the second end 12.

[0028] The inner diameter of the ring body 10 is not particularly limited. The inner diameter of the ring body 10 is formed to a size that allows for easy putting on and taking off of the finger, and is formed in the range of, for example, 13 mm or more and 23 mm or less. The inner diameter of the ring body 10 is also preferably formed in the range of, for example, 15 mm or more and 19 mm or less, and also preferably in the range of 15 mm or more and 17 mm or less.

[0029] Examples of materials for the ring body 10 include pure metals such as gold, platinum, silver, copper, and titanium, and alloys mainly composed of these exemplified metals. Examples of materials for the ring body 10 include stainless steel and brass. Furthermore, the ring body 10 may have a core material formed from one of these metal materials, and the surface of this core material may be plated with a metal material such as gold or a gold alloy, platinum or a platinum alloy. Because the ring 100 has the above configuration, even if the ring body 10 is made of an inexpensive material, the ring 100 does not need to be resized. As a result, the ring 100 can be used for a long period of time without resizing, regardless of changes in finger size.

[0030] In the illustrated example, the ring body 10 is formed by the lost-wax casting method. However, it is not limited to this method and can be formed by any desired method, such as the press method or traditional methods. From the viewpoint of design freedom, it is preferable to form the ring body 10 by the casting method.

[0031] Each of the first end 11 and the second end 12 has three rows of decorative elements, each consisting of three decorative elements 30, arranged circumferentially from the first end 11 and from the second end 12. Each row of decorative elements is positioned offset from adjacent rows in the finger insertion / removal direction D1. The ring body 10 is provided with eight prongs 21 for each row of decorative elements. In each row of decorative elements, each decorative element 30 is secured by four prongs 21, with the central decorative element 30 being shared. This secures the decorative elements 30 to the ring body 10.

[0032] In the ring 100, the ornament 30 is made of gemstones. Examples of gemstones include natural gemstones, treated gemstones, synthetic gemstones, man-made gemstones, and imitation gemstones. Imitation gemstones also include gemstones made of plastic. In the illustrated example, the ornament 30 is made of gemstones, but is not limited to this. Examples of ornaments 30 other than gemstones include decorative members made of metal, ceramics, or plastic, or combinations thereof. The ornament 30 may be a gemstone that has been cut according to its purpose. In addition, the ornament 30 may be in the form of a cartoon, animation, animal, or plant. In the illustrated example, the gemstone as the ornament 30 is fixed to the ring body 10 by the prongs 21, but depending on the form of the ornament 30, a fixing means appropriate to the purpose may be adopted.

[0033] In the ring 100, the first end 11 and the second end 12 are positioned at different locations in the finger insertion / removal direction D1. In a plan view from the back of the hand, the first end 11 and the second end 12 extend parallel to each other and are offset in the finger insertion / removal direction D1 so as not to be on the extension line. The ring body 10 extends circumferentially from the first end 11 to the second end 12 for more than one turn and less than one and a half turns. Specifically, the ring body 10 extends circumferentially from the first end 11 to the second end 12 over a range of more than one turn and less than one and a quarter turns. In the ring 100, the first and second rows of decorative elements from the tip of the first end 11 and the first and second rows of decorative elements from the tip of the second end 12 are positioned so that at least a portion of them overlap in the finger insertion / removal direction D1.

[0034] As shown in the illustrated example, when the ring body 10 extends circumferentially from the first end 11 to the second end 12 for more than one but less than one and a half turns, a portion of the ring body 10 is positioned in a location that overlaps with the first gap 41 when viewed in the finger insertion / removal direction D1. This prevents the configuration in which only the first gap 41 is open in the finger insertion / removal direction D1, thereby preventing the ring 100 from falling off the finger when worn and improving stability when worn. Therefore, the user's anxiety about the ring 100 falling off their finger can be reduced.

[0035] The first gap 41 is formed between the first end 11 and the second end 12, and in a plan view from the back of the hand, it extends in an inclined manner from the tip of the first end 11 to the tip of the second end 12. That is, in a plan view from the back of the hand, the first gap 41 extends between the tip of the first end 11 and the tip of the second end 12 in a direction that intersects both the circumferential direction and the finger insertion / removal direction D1.

[0036] The ring 100 is not limited to the illustrated example. For example, the ring body 10 may be configured to extend circumferentially from the first end 11 to the second end 12 for less than one full turn. For example, the first end 11 and the second end 12 may be positioned at the same location in the finger insertion / removal direction D1 to the ring body 10, such that they are on the extension lines of each other with respect to a first gap 41. For example, the ring body 10 may have a branched portion. For example, the decorative element 30 may be pivotably mounted. For example, the decorative element 30 may be mounted on the first end 11 or the second end 12. For example, the decorative element 30 is not limited to a row of decorative elements, but may be a single element.

[0037] Figures 3 and 4 schematically represent another embodiment of the ring according to this embodiment. As shown in Figures 3 and 4, the ring 110 comprises a ring body 10 that is worn on a finger and extends along the circumferential direction of the finger, and decorative elements (first decorative element 30A, second decorative elements 31A, 31B, 31C, 31D) provided on the ring body 10. The ring body 10 has a first end 11 and a second end 12 that are spaced apart from each other, and a first gap 41 between the first end 11 and the second end 12 that connects the outer circumferential surface 10A and the inner circumferential surface 10B of the ring body 10. The ring body 10 has a branched portion 10X that branches off from a portion in the circumferential direction between the second end 12 and the first end 11 and extends from the palm side to the back of the hand side, and the branched portion 10X has a third end 13. Specifically, the branching portion 10X is bifurcated toward the back of the hand with respect to the finger insertion / removal direction D1, with a first end 11 provided at one branch and a third end 13 at the other branch. The branching portion 10X is not limited to the illustrated example, and may be configured to branch from a circumferential portion between the first end 11 and the second end 12 and extend from the palm side toward the back of the hand.

[0038] The ring body 10 further has a second gap 42 between the second end 12 and the third end 13 that connects the outer circumferential surface 10A and the inner circumferential surface 10B. Specifically, the second gap 42 is formed between the second end 12 and the third end 13 and extends from the tip side of the second end 12 toward the side side of the third end 13 in a plan view seen from the back of the hand. The first end 11, the second end 12, and the third end 13 are located on the back of the hand when the ring body 10 is in its normal wearing state on a finger. In the ring 110, the first ornament 30A is provided on the first end 11 side, and the second ornaments 31A, 31B, 31C, and 31D are provided on the second end 12 side. The ring 110 may also be provided with one or more of the first decorative element 30A and the second decorative elements 31A, 31B, 31C, and 31D, provided that they are provided on at least one of the first end 11 and the second end 12.

[0039] In the ring 110, the first end 11, the second end 12, and the third end 13 are each positioned at different locations in the circumferential direction. Specifically, the first end 11 and the second end 12 are positioned at different locations in the finger insertion / removal direction D1, and in a plan view from the back of the hand, the first end 11 and the second end 12 extend parallel to each other and are offset in the finger insertion / removal direction D1 so as not to be located on the extension line of the first end 11 and the second end 12. The third end 13 is positioned so as not to be located on the extension line of the first end 11 and the second end 12 in a plan view from the back of the hand.

[0040] The ring body 10 extends circumferentially from the first end 11 to the second end 12 over a range exceeding one full turn but less than one and a quarter turns. In the case of ring 110, where the ring body 10 extends circumferentially from the first end 11 to the second end 12 over a range of one to one and a half turns, a portion of the ring body 10 is positioned at a location that overlaps with the first gap 41 when viewed in the finger insertion / removal direction D1. Furthermore, in the case of ring 110, where there is a branched portion 10X, a portion of the ring body 10 is positioned at a location that overlaps with the second gap 42 when viewed in the finger insertion / removal direction D1, similar to the case of the first gap 41. This prevents the first gap 41 and the second gap 42 from being open in the finger insertion / removal direction D1, thereby preventing the ring 110 from falling off the finger when worn and improving stability when worn.

[0041] In the ring 110, a frame member 50 is provided at the first end 11. The frame member 50 comprises a first frame portion 51 and a second frame portion 52. In the normal wearing state when the ring body 10 is worn on the finger, the first frame portion 51 is positioned on the back of the hand, and the second frame portion 52 is positioned on the palm side. The first frame portion 51 and the second frame portion 52 are connected by a plurality of ribs 53. The first end 11 branches bifurcated toward the back of the hand, perpendicular to the finger insertion / removal direction D1, and includes an upper first end portion 11A provided on the back of the hand and a lower first end portion 11B provided on the palm side. The upper first end portion 11A is connected to the first frame portion 51, and the lower first end portion 11B is connected to the second frame portion 52. These connections are not particularly limited and may be made by, for example, brazing.

[0042] The first ornament 30A is held by the retaining member 60. The first ornament 30A is a gemstone. A specific example of a gemstone is as described in ring 100. The first ornament 30A is fixed to the base portion (not shown) of the retaining member 60. The retaining member 60 has one base portion (not shown), two arms extending on both sides of the base portion, and two annular connecting portions provided at the respective ends in the direction in which the two arms extend. In the illustrated example, the planar portion, which is the widest area of ​​the two arms, is tilted at approximately 90° with respect to the base portion, so that the base portion and the arms are integrated. As a result, the connecting portion provided on the side of the arms opposite to the base portion is also tilted at approximately 90° with respect to the base portion. The first frame portion 51 is provided with an annular support member (not shown), and the annular connecting portion of the holding member 60 is suspended and locked to the first frame portion 51 via the support member. As a result, the holding member 60 is pivotably connected to the frame member 50. Therefore, the first decorative element 30A can pivot in conjunction with the pivoting of the holding member 60 relative to the frame member 50. When the first decorative element 30A is pivotably positioned, as in the ring 110, it can be made to appear more radiant compared to when it is fixed, thus improving the aesthetic appearance of the ring 110.

[0043] Specific examples of the materials that make up the ring body 10 in ring 110 are as described in ring 100. Specific examples of the materials for the frame member 50 and the retaining member 60 in ring 110 include, for example, the same materials as those used for the ring body 10.

[0044] The ring 110 is not limited to the illustrated example. For example, a holding member 60 for holding the first decorative element 30A suspended from the frame member 50 may be provided at both the first end 11 and the second end 12, and the first decorative element 30A provided at both the first end 11 and the second end 12 may be swingably mounted. Furthermore, if the first decorative element 30A is swingably mounted, it is preferable to employ a swinging mechanism similar to the illustrated mechanism from the viewpoint of making the first decorative element 30A shine more brightly. Note that the swinging mechanism for the first decorative element 30A is not limited to the illustrated example, and for example, a known swinging mechanism may be employed.

[0045] A second decorative element 31A is provided at the second end 12. The second decorative elements 31A, 31B, 31C, and 31D are provided in this order in the circumferential direction from the second end 12 side, and are each fixed to the outer surface 10A of the ring body 10. The second decorative elements 31A, 31B, 31C, and 31D are based on a flower motif and are made of, for example, metal. The second decorative elements 31A, 31B, 31C, and 31D are not limited to the illustrated example, and may be provided one or more times, or not provided at all, depending on the purpose.

[0046] (Effects of the ring according to this embodiment) According to the rings 100 and 110 of this embodiment, the following effects can be achieved. (1) The ring body 10 has a first end 11 and a second end 12, and a first gap 41 between the first end 11 and the second end 12 that connects the outer circumferential surface 10A and the inner circumferential surface 10B of the ring body 10. Therefore, the rings 100 and 110 can be used as a free size without size adjustment. (2) Since the first end 11 and the second end 12 are positioned on the back of the hand when the ring body 10 is worn on the finger, the first gap 41 is positioned on the back of the hand. This improves stability when worn compared to when the gap is positioned on the palm side. As a result, the user can reduce concerns about the rings 100 and 110 falling off when worn. (3) Since the first gap 41 is located on the back side of the hand, it is possible to improve the aesthetic appearance by utilizing the first gap 41, and the degree of design freedom is increased. (4) Since the inner circumference surface 10B of the rings 100 and 110 does not need to have indentations to widen the inner diameter of the ring body 10 to make it a free size, discomfort when worn is reduced even when worn for a long time.

[0047] [Variations of the Embodiment] Although the ring according to the above embodiment has been described with reference to the drawings, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and any modifications or improvements that can achieve the objective of the present invention are included in the present invention.

[0048] For example, although not shown in the figures, it is also preferable that the ring body 10 of the aforementioned ring 100 has a first branch and a second branch that branch out and extend from the palm side toward the back of the hand. Specifically, it is also preferable that the first branch and the second branch extend from the palm side toward the back of the hand along different paths. In this case, it is also preferable that the first branch has a first end and a second end that are spaced apart from each other, and has a first gap between the first end and the second end that connects the outer circumferential surface and the inner circumferential surface of the ring body, and that the second branch has a third end and a fourth end that are spaced apart from each other, and has a second gap between the third end and the fourth end that connects the outer circumferential surface and the inner circumferential surface of the ring body. Furthermore, it is also preferable that the first end and the second end, and the third end and the fourth end, are all located on the back of the hand when the ring body is in a normal wearing state on a finger. Even in this embodiment, the effects described in (1) to (4) above can be achieved.

[0049] In this embodiment, the first and second ends are positioned at the same location in the direction of inserting and removing a finger from the ring body, with the first end and second end being on an extension line to each other via a first gap, and the third and fourth ends are positioned at the same location in the direction of inserting and removing a finger from the ring body, with the third end and fourth end being on an extension line to each other via a second gap, thus forming a configuration (first embodiment). Therefore, in this first embodiment, when viewed in the direction of inserting and removing a finger, the first gap and the second gap overlap, and the first gap and the second gap are open in the direction of inserting and removing a finger. In other words, in the first embodiment, when the ring is viewed from the side from the direction of inserting and removing a finger, it appears as if a notched opening has been formed in the ring body at the position where the first gap and the second gap overlap. In the first embodiment, even when the first gap and the second gap overlap when viewed in the direction of inserting and removing a finger, there are two branching parts, so the ring can be less likely to fall off the finger when being worn, and the stability during use can be further improved.

[0050] Furthermore, in this embodiment, it is also preferable that, for example, the first gap and the second gap are positioned at different locations relative to each other in the direction of inserting and removing a finger from the ring body (second embodiment). In the second embodiment, with this arrangement, when viewed in the direction of inserting and removing a finger, a part of the ring body is positioned at a location overlapping with the first gap and a location overlapping with the second gap. In other words, in the second embodiment, when the ring is viewed from the side in the direction of inserting and removing a finger, the ring body appears to be connected in an annular shape. For this reason, in addition to having two branching parts, in the second embodiment, the first gap and the second gap do not overlap in the direction of inserting and removing a finger from the ring body, which further prevents the ring from falling off the finger when worn and further improves stability during use.
