Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a ring that can be used as a ring and also as a pendant top. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventionally, there has been known a finger ring consisting of a decorative portion and a ring portion, in which the ring portion is rotatable relative to the decorative portion, and the ring portion can be rotated and positioned parallel to the decorative portion so that it can be used as a pendant top for a necklace or the like. For example, the prior art described in Utility Model Registration No. 3001117 proposes a ring-cum-necklace, in which a finger ring has a decorative portion and a ring portion, the ring portion is partially opened to fit the decorative portion therein, and the decorative portion is axially attached to the ring portion so as to be freely rotatable. In addition, a window is formed in the side surface of the decorative portion and in the ring portion through which a chain or the like can be inserted, so that the finger ring and necklace can be used as a necklace by inserting a chain or the like through the window formed in the side surface of the decorative portion and in the ring portion.

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Utility Model Registration No. 3001117 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] However, in the above-mentioned cited document 1, although the ring part is rotatably attached to the decorative part, the ring part cannot be precisely positioned during rotation, and the rotation of the ring part lacks a good usability. Also, even when the ring part is rotated and placed in a position parallel to the decorative part, the function of fixing and holding the position is insufficient, and there is a problem that the decorative part hangs downward during use. Regarding the problem of the decorative part drooping downward, when accessories such as pearls or jewels are attached to the necklace when it is used as a necklace, the weight placed on the decorative part further exacerbates the problem of the decorative part drooping downward.

[0005] Therefore, the present invention has been made in consideration of the above, and aims to provide a ring that can be used as a pendant top and is highly decorative as both a ring and a pendant top, which allows fine positioning during rotation of the ring member, creates a good feel when rotating the ring member, and after the position of the ring member has been determined, can be held in the positioned position without any problems even if accessories such as pearls are added to it, as long as the ring member is not rotated intentionally. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems and achieve the object, the finger ring which can be used as a pendant top as described in claim 1 is a finger ring which can be used as a pendant top, comprising: a decorative member; a holding frame which has an opening on the front side, a pair of bearing grooves formed in the side wall, and a rear wall which is attached to the rear side of the decorative member; a ring member which has an opening which opens a part of the ring-shaped part; a rotating shaft provided in the opening; a positioning member having a polygonal cross section provided in the center position in the longitudinal direction of the rotating shaft; and a leaf spring having a U-shaped cross section which presses against the peripheral surface of the positioning member; The central convex portion of a leaf spring having a U-shaped cross section is abutted against the peripheral surface of the positioning member within the holding frame, and the opening of the holding frame is closed with a cover member so as to press the leaf spring against the positioning member, so that the central convex portion of the leaf spring presses against the peripheral surface of the positioning member due to the biasing force of the leaf spring, thereby enabling the ring member to be positioned relative to the decorative member in the normal state, and the ring member can be rotated to a position perpendicular to the decorative member to enable use as a finger ring, and the ring member can be rotated to a position parallel to the decorative member to enable use as a pendant top.

[0007] The pendant top and finger ring described in claim 2 is also characterized in that the positioning member has an octagonal cross section.

[0008] In the finger ring that doubles as a pendant top as described in claim 3, the decorative member has a plurality of engagement grooves for the ring member on its peripheral wall, and the ring member is rotated to position it in a parallel position to the decorative member, and the ring member is engaged with the engagement grooves so that the decorative member faces forward when suspended by a chain.

[0009] The pendant top and finger ring described in claim 4 is also characterized in that the decorative member has an attachment hole formed in the peripheral wall for attaching a chain or accessory.

[0010] In the ring that doubles as a pendant top as described in claim 5, the decorative member is further characterized in that it has a round ring on the peripheral wall for attaching a chain or accessory. Effect of the Invention

[0011] According to the first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a pendant top finger ring, which is comprised of a decorative member, a holding frame having an opening on the front side, a pair of bearing grooves formed in the side wall, and a rear wall attached to the rear side of the decorative member, a ring member having an opening that opens a part of the ring-shaped portion, a rotating shaft provided in the opening, a positioning member having a polygonal cross section provided in the center position in the longitudinal direction of the rotating shaft, and a leaf spring having a U-shaped cross section that presses against the peripheral surface of the positioning member, the positioning member being housed in the holding frame, the rotating shaft being engaged with the pair of bearing grooves, and the holding frame being fitted with a spring. In this case, the central convex portion of a leaf spring having a U-shaped cross section is abutted against the peripheral surface of the positioning member, and the opening of the holding frame is closed with a cover member so as to press the leaf spring against the positioning member, so that the biasing force of the leaf spring causes the central convex portion of the leaf spring to press against the peripheral surface of the positioning member, allowing the ring member to be positioned relative to the decorative member in the normal state, and the ring member can be rotated to a position perpendicular to the decorative member for use as a finger ring, or rotated to a position parallel to the decorative member for use as a pendant top. Therefore, fine positioning is possible during the rotation of the ring member, and the user can feel a resistance each time the peripheral surface of the positioning member and the surface of the central convex portion of the leaf spring come into close contact, creating a good feel when rotating the ring member. Furthermore, once the position of the ring member has been determined, it can be held in the determined position without any problems, even if it is weighted down with accessories such as pearls, unless an intentional rotational movement is performed. Therefore, it is possible to provide a ring that can also be used as a pendant top, which is highly decorative both as a ring and as a pendant top.

[0012] According to the pendant top combined finger ring of claim 2, the positioning member has an octagonal cross section. Therefore, when the ring member is rotated, the peripheral surface of the positioning member and the surface of the central convex part of the leaf spring come into close contact with each other at every 45°, so that the user can feel a comfortable response every time the peripheral surface of the positioning member and the surface of the central convex part of the leaf spring come into close contact with each other, and it is possible to create a very good usability when rotating the ring member. Furthermore, after the position of the ring member has been determined, unless an intentional rotation operation is performed, the ring member can be held in the positioned position without any problems, even if an accessory such as a pearl is added to it and weighted down, because the peripheral surface of the positioning member and the surface of the central convex portion of the leaf spring are in close contact with each other.

[0013] According to the pendant top and finger ring of claim 3, the decorative member has a plurality of engagement grooves for the ring member on the peripheral wall, and the ring member is rotated to be positioned parallel to the decorative member, and the ring member is engaged with the engagement grooves so that the decorative member faces forward when suspended by a chain. This solves the problem that the ring member collides with the peripheral wall of the decorative member when rotated, making it impossible to position the ring member parallel to the decorative member, and since the decorative member and the ring member can be positioned parallel to each other, the decorative member can face forward when used as a pendant top.

[0014] According to the ring that can be used as a pendant top as described in claim 4 or 5, the decorative member has a hole for attaching a chain or an accessory formed on the peripheral wall, or is provided with a round ring. Therefore, it can be easily used as a pendant top by inserting a chain through the hole or the round ring, or through the frame of the ring member. [Brief description of the drawings]

FIG. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0016] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of a pendant top combined finger ring according to the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. 1 to 4 show a decorative member constituting the finger ring with pendant top of the present invention. In the figure, the decorative member 12 of the pendant top and finger ring 11 of the present invention has a decorative surface 12a on the front side, and a peripheral wall 12b is formed from the decorative surface 12a to the rear side, with the cross section being approximately U-shaped, and a retaining frame 13 is attached to the rear side of the decorative surface 12a to axially attach the ring member 21 described below so that it can rotate freely. In addition, when the pendant top / finger ring 11 of the present invention is used as a pendant top, an engagement groove 12c in which a ring member 21 described below can be engaged is formed at a predetermined position on the peripheral wall 12b so that the ring member 21 described below can be rotated to a position parallel to the decorative member 12. Furthermore, the decorative member 12 may have a round ring 14 formed on the peripheral wall 12b, through which a chain can be inserted or accessories such as pearls can be attached, as shown in Fig. 37 described later. Of course, the present invention is not limited to the round ring 14, and the peripheral wall 12b may have an attachment hole (not shown) for accessories such as a chain or pearls.

[0017] In this embodiment, the decorative member 12 has a cross section that is approximately U-shaped, but of course, the shape is not limited to this embodiment, and it goes without saying that decorative members of any shape can be applied. Furthermore, as shown in Figures 38 and 39, by using a wire material for the decorative member 12, the decorativeness can be enhanced while the numerous windows formed by the wires can be used as attachment holes for accessories such as chains or pearls, or the grooves (not shown) formed by the wires can be used as engagement grooves when attempting to position the ring member 21 in a position parallel to the decorative member 12.

[0018] The retaining frame 13 is attached to the back side of the decorative member 12. More specifically, the retaining frame 13 has a substantially U-shaped cross section, with a rear wall 13a and a peripheral wall 13b extending from the periphery of the rear wall 13a to form an opening 13c on the front side, and the peripheral wall 13b is provided with a pair of bearing grooves 13d for engaging with a rotating shaft 22 provided on a ring member 21 described below. In addition, a pair of claw portions 13e are formed on the peripheral wall 13b of the retaining frame 13 at a position perpendicular to the pair of bearing grooves 13d, and a cover member 41 described below can be clawed to close the opening 13c of the retaining frame 13. The rear wall 13a of the holding frame 13 is attached to the rear side of the decorative member 12.

[0019] 5 to 8 show the ring members constituting the finger ring with pendant top of the present invention. In the drawings, the ring member 21 of the pendant top and finger ring 11 of the present invention has an open portion 21a in which a part of the ring-shaped portion is opened, and a rotating shaft 22 is provided in the open portion 21a. Furthermore, a positioning member 23 with a polygonal cross section is formed in the center position in the longitudinal direction of the rotating shaft 22. The rotating shaft 22 is formed so as to span both side ends of the ring member 21, forming the open portion 21a of the ring member 21. Of course, the rotating shaft 22 may be formed at a predetermined position of the ring member 21 without forming the open portion 21a of the ring member 21. The positioning member 23 is formed in the center position in the longitudinal direction of the rotating shaft 22 in the shape of a prism having a polygonal cross section, and as shown in the figure, an octagonal cross section can be suitably used.

[0020] 9 to 16 show the process of attaching the decorative member 12 and the ring member 21. FIG. First, as shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, the rotation shaft 22 and positioning member 23 of the ring member 21 are attached to the holding frame 13 attached to the back side of the decorative member 12. At this time, the positioning member 23 is housed in the holding frame 13, and the rotating shaft 22 is engaged with a pair of bearing grooves 13d of the holding frame 13. Therefore, when the ring member 21 rotates relative to the decorative member 12, the positioning member 23 rotates within the holding frame 13 together with the axial rotation of the rotating shaft 22.

[0021] Then, as shown in Fig. 11, the central protrusion 31a of the leaf spring 31 having a U-shaped cross section is abutted against the peripheral surface of the positioning member 23 in the holding frame 13, and as shown in Fig. 12, a cover member 41 is arranged so as to close the opening 13c of the holding frame 13, and as shown in Fig. 13, a pair of claws 13e of the holding frame 13 are bent, and the opening 13c of the holding frame 13 is closed by the cover member 41 so as to press the central protrusion 31a of the leaf spring 31 against the peripheral surface of the positioning member 23. In this way, the ring member 21 can be axially attached to the decorative member 12, and the central protrusion 31a of the leaf spring 31 presses against the peripheral surface of the positioning member 23 by the biasing force of the leaf spring 31, so that the position of the ring member 21 relative to the decorative member 12 can be fixed and held in a normal state. Fig. 14 is a schematic perspective view thereof, Fig. 15 is a schematic sectional perspective view thereof, and Fig. 16 is a schematic see-through sectional perspective view thereof.

[0022] When using the pendant top combined ring 11 of the present invention as a ring, as shown in FIG. 17, the ring member 21 is rotated to a position perpendicular to the decorative member 12, and then the finger is inserted into the frame of the ring member 21 and worn on the finger. At this time, when rotating the ring member 21, the peripheral surface of the positioning member 23 and the face of the central convex portion 31a of the leaf spring 31 come into close contact with each other every 45°, so that the user can feel a comfortable resistance each time the peripheral surface of the positioning member 23 and the face of the central convex portion 31a of the leaf spring 31 come into close contact with each other, thereby creating an extremely good usability when rotating the ring member 21. In addition, each time the ring member 21 is rotated so that the peripheral surface of the positioning member 23 and the surface of the central convex portion 31a of the leaf spring 31 come into close contact with each other, the ring member 21 can be positioned relative to the decorative member 12, so that the ring member 21 can be easily fixed and held in a position perpendicular to the decorative member 12.

[0023] 18 to 23 show the process of rotating the ring member 21 to a position parallel to the decorative member 12 and using it as a pendant top. When the pendant top combined finger ring of the present invention is used as a pendant top, first, as shown in Figures 18 to 20, the ring member 21 is rotated until it is parallel to the decorative member 12 as shown in Figure 21. Figure 22 is a schematic perspective view of the ring member 21. At this time, when the decorative member 12 and the ring member 21 are in a position parallel to each other, the peripheral surface of the positioning member 23 and the surface of the central convex portion 31a of the leaf spring 31 are in close contact with each other, so that the decorative member 12 and the ring member 21 can be fixed and held in a position where they are parallel to each other. Therefore, for example, by inserting a chain 51 into the frame of the ring member 21, the finger ring combined with pendant top of the present invention can be used as a pendant top as shown in FIG. Furthermore, as shown in Figure 40, a plurality of mounting holes 21b for inserting a chain 51 may be provided at the location opposite the open portion 21a of the ring member 21, and the pendant top / ring of the present invention can be used as a pendant top by inserting the chain 51 into the mounting holes 21b.

[0024] Of course, as shown in Figs. 24 and 25, by rotating the ring member 21 in the other direction relative to the decorative member 12, it can also be used as a pendant top with a different decorativeness as shown in Fig. 26. In other words, by rotating the ring member 21 in either direction relative to the decorative member 12, a pendant top with different decorativeness can be created, allowing the user to select the appropriate one depending on their preference and the occasion in which they will be wearing it.

[0025] Of course, when rotating the ring member 21, the peripheral surface of the positioning member 23 and the face of the central convex portion 31a of the leaf spring 31 come into close contact with each other every 45°, so that the user can feel a comfortable resistance every time the peripheral surface of the positioning member 23 and the face of the central convex portion 31a of the leaf spring 31 come into close contact with each other, thereby creating a very good usability when rotating the ring member 21, for example, when using it as a finger ring or a pendant top.

[0026] FIG. 27 shows accessories such as pearls that can be detachably attached to the pendant top / finger ring of the present invention. In the figure, the accessory 61 is composed of an accessory body 61a such as a pearl and a mounting member 62 provided on the upper end of the accessory body 61a. The accessory body 61a may be a pearl, a precious stone such as a gemstone, or a precious metal. The mounting member 62 is composed of a ring-shaped frame 62a with an open upper end, a ring-shaped leaf spring 63 with an open upper end, and a retaining plate 64 having approximately the same shape as the ring-shaped frame 62a.

[0027] The ring-shaped frame 62a has an open upper end and a leaf spring storage groove 62b on the back side. The ring-shaped leaf spring 63 has an open upper end and both open ends 63a each having a rounded shape, and is stored in the leaf spring storage groove 62b. The retaining plate 64 has substantially the same shape as the ring-shaped frame 62a, and is attached to the rear surface of the ring-shaped frame 62a.

[0028] FIG. 28 shows a process for assembling the mounting member 62 of the accessory 61. As shown in FIG. The mounting member 62 is in a disassembled state as shown in Fig. 28(a), and when assembling the mounting member 62, first, the ring-shaped leaf spring 63 is accommodated in the leaf spring accommodation groove 62b of the ring-shaped frame body 62a as shown in Fig. 28(b). At this time, the upper open portion of the ring-shaped leaf spring 63 is positioned to correspond to the upper open portion of the ring-shaped frame body 62a. 28(c), the pressing plate 64 is attached to the back side of the ring-shaped frame 62a, completing the assembly of the mounting member 62. Of course, the upper open portion of the pressing plate 64 is also positioned to correspond to the upper open portion of the ring-shaped frame 62a. FIG. 29 is a schematic perspective view of the accessory 61. As shown in FIG.

[0029] 30 to 36 show the process of attaching the accessory 61 to the decorative member 12 via the round ring 14 attached to the peripheral wall 12b of the decorative member 12 and removing it. First, as shown in Figures 30 and 31, the round ring 14 is inserted into the upper open portion of the mounting member 62, and as shown in Figure 32, the round ring 14 abuts against the open end portions 63a on both sides that constitute the upper open portion of the ring-shaped leaf spring 63. When further force is applied in the direction of inserting the round ring 14 into the ring-shaped frame of the mounting member 62, the open end portions 63a on both sides of the ring-shaped leaf spring 63 are temporarily pulled apart, and the round ring 14 is inserted into the ring-shaped frame of the mounting member 62, completing the attachment of the accessory 61 to the decorative member 12, as shown in Figure 33. In this state in which the accessory 61 is attached to the decorative member 12, the open ends 63a on both sides that form the upper open portion of the ring-shaped leaf spring 63 are sufficiently close to each other to close the upper open portion, so that the accessory 61 will not fall off the decorative member 12 unless a user intentionally attempts to remove the accessory 61 from the decorative member 12.

[0030] When removing the accessory 61 from the decorative member 12, the accessory 61 can be easily removed from the decorative member 12 simply by applying a force to pull the accessory 61 away from the decorative member 12. Therefore, the decorativeness can be changed and improved by appropriately attaching accessories such as pearls, so that it can be used as a ring or pendant top with the decorativeness of the user's choice according to the user's mood, the occasion in which it is worn, etc.

[0031] Figure 37 is a schematic oblique view showing the state in which the pendant top and finger ring 11 of the present invention is used as a pendant top by attaching multiple round rings 14 to the decorative member 12, attaching the accessory 61 to the lower round ring 14, and inserting a chain 51 through the upper round ring 14. In this way, the ring member 21 axially attached to the decorative member 12 is not used to attach a chain, but by inserting the chain 51 through the round ring 14, the ring member 21 can be used mainly as a decorative part.

[0032] The remarkable effects achieved by the pendant top and finger ring of the present invention include, for example, the following. (a) By making the positioning member polygonal (particularly octagonal), when the ring member is rotated, the peripheral surface of the positioning member and the face of the central convex portion of the leaf spring come into tight contact with each other every 45°. This allows the user to feel a comfortable response each time the peripheral surface of the positioning member and the face of the central convex portion of the leaf spring come into tight contact with each other, creating an extremely pleasant feel when rotating the ring member. (b) After the position of the ring member has been determined, unless an intentional rotation operation is performed, the ring member can be held in the determined position without any problems, even if an accessory such as a pearl is added to the ring and weight is applied to it, because the peripheral surface of the positioning member and the surface of the central convex portion of the leaf spring are in close contact with each other. (c) Therefore, it is possible to provide a ring that can also serve as a pendant top, which is highly decorative both as a ring and as a pendant top. (d) By inserting a chain through the attachment hole or the circular ring, or through the frame of the ring member, it can be easily used as a pendant top. (e) The problem of the ring member colliding with the peripheral wall of the decorative member when rotated, making it impossible to position the ring member parallel to the decorative member, is eliminated. The decorative member and the ring member can be positioned in parallel positions and their positions can be fixed and maintained, so that when used as a pendant top, the decorative member can always face forward. (f) When used as a ring or a pendant top, the decorativeness can be changed or improved by appropriately attaching accessories such as pearls, so that the ring or pendant top can be used with the decorativeness of the user's choice according to the user's mood, the occasion in which it is worn, etc. [Industrial Applicability]

[0033] Regarding the finger ring that can also be used as a pendant top of the present invention, an embodiment has been described in which the ring member that is rotatably attached to the decorative member can be rotated to use it as either a finger ring or a pendant top. However, it goes without saying that it is not limited to pendant tops, and by adjusting the shapes and materials of the decorative member and ring member, it can be used as other decorative parts such as earrings.
