Abstract
A multi-function jewelry apparatus can include a ring hull having a radial pin extending outward from an outer surface of the ring hull and a substantially hollow head portion detachably mounted on the ring hull. The head portion can include a receptacle for receiving and engaging the radial pin.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is:
1 . A multi-function jewelry apparatus comprising:
a ring hull having a radial pin extending outward from an outer surface of said ring hull; and a substantially hollow head portion detachably mounted on said ring hull, said head portion having a receptacle for receiving and engaging said radial pin.
2 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein said radial pin and said receptacle are threaded to engage one another.
3 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein said receptacle and said radial pin engage one another using a pressure locking mechanism or an automatic release mechanism.
4 . The apparatus of claim 1 , said head portion comprising:
a cap containing said receptacle in a bottom side of said cap, said cap having a bulge on a top side of said cap accommodating said receptacle, said bulge having two opposing indentations and being coaxial to said receptacle; and a ring head container detachably mounted to said cap, wherein said ring head container and said cap close to form said substantially hollow head portion.
5 . The apparatus of claim 4 , said ring head container further comprising:
a looped ring portion attached to an outer edge of said ring head container for hanging said head portion.
6 . The apparatus of claim 4 , further comprising a necklace disposed in said head portion.
7 . The apparatus of claim 4 , further comprising a bracelet disposed in said head portion.
8 . The apparatus of claim 4 , wherein said ring head container is hingedly attached to said cap.
9 . The apparatus of claim 4 , wherein said ring head container and said cap are threaded to engage one another.
10 . The apparatus of claim 4 , said head portion comprising:
a tongue fastener mounted on said cap for securing said ring head container to said cap.
11 . The apparatus of claim 4 , wherein said head portion and said cap engage one another using a pressure locking mechanism or an automatic release mechanism.
12 . The apparatus of claim 4 , said ring head container comprising a top portion being substantially parallel to said cap when closed and side walls being substantially perpendicular to said cap when closed.
13 . The apparatus of claim 12 , wherein said side walls are configured for coaxially securing at least one loop earring.
14 . The apparatus of claim 13 , further comprising at least one earring coaxially secured to said ring head container.
15 . The apparatus of claim 13 , wherein said side walls are grooved.
16 . The apparatus of claim 13 , wherein said side walls are concave.
17 . The apparatus of claim 4 , wherein:
said cap has an internal rim and a stop spring element attached to said cap, said stop spring element being divided into two opposing branches, wherein each said branch engages one of said opposing two indentations, and wherein each of said opposing branches of said stop spring element is confined by said internal rim; said radial pin has two opposing slots, said slots being orthogonal to said radial pin; and wherein said receptacle engages said radial pin and each said branch of said stop spring element lockably engages each said opposing slot of said radial pin.
18 . The apparatus of claim 17 , said head portion further comprising:
a cover fixed to said top side of said cap covering said stop spring element.
19 . A multi-function jewelry apparatus comprising:
a ring hull having a radial pin extending outward from an outer surface of said ring hull; a substantially hollow head portion detachably mounted on said ring hull, said head portion comprising a ring head container and a cap; a loop attached to said ring head container for hanging said head portion; a tongue fastener mounted to said cap for securing said ring head to said cap; wherein said cap contains a receptacle in a bottom side of said cap for receiving and engaging said radial pin, said cap having a bulge on a top side of said cap accommodating said receptacle, said bulge having two opposing indentations being coaxial to said receptacle; wherein said ring head container is detachably mounted to said cap, said ring head container comprising a top portion being substantially parallel to said cap when closed and side walls being substantially perpendicular to said cap when closed, said ring head container and said cap forming said substantially hollow head portion; wherein said cap comprises an internal rim and a stop spring element attached to said cap, said stop spring element being divided into two opposing branches such that each said branch engages one of said opposing two indentations, and each of said opposing branches of said stop spring element is confined by said internal rim; wherein said radial pin has two opposing slots, said slots being substantially orthogonal to said radial pin; and wherein said receptacle engages said radial pin and each said branch of said stop spring element lockably engages each said opposing slot of said radial pin.
20 . A multi-function jewelry apparatus comprising:
a substantially hollow head portion having radial pin extending outward from a bottom surface of said head portion; and a ring hull for detachably mounting said head portion, said ring hull having a receptacle for receiving and engaging said radial pin.
21 . The apparatus of claim 20 , wherein said radial pin of said head portion is a post for wearing said head portion as an earring.
22 . The apparatus of claim 20 , wherein said radial pin and said receptacle are threaded to engage one another.
23 . The apparatus of claim 20 , wherein said receptacle and said radial pin engage one another using a pressure locking mechanism or an automatic release mechanism.
24 . The apparatus of claim 20 , said head portion comprising:
a cap having said bottom surface having said radial pin extending outward from said bottom surface; a ring head container detachably mounted to said cap, wherein said ring head container and said cap close to form said substantially hollow head portion.
25 . The apparatus of claim 24 , said ring head container further comprising:
a looped ring portion attached to an outer edge of said ring head container for hanging said head portion.
26 . The apparatus of claim 24 , further comprising a necklace disposed in said head portion.
27 . The apparatus of claim 24 , further comprising a bracelet disposed in said head portion.
28 . The apparatus of claim 24 , wherein said ring head container is hingedly attached to said cap.
29 . The apparatus of claim 24 , wherein said ring head container and said cap are threaded to engage one another.
30 . The apparatus of claim 24 , said head portion comprising:
a tongue fastener mounted on said cap for securing said ring head to said cap.
31 . The apparatus of claim 24 , wherein said head portion and said cap engage one another using a pressure locking mechanism or an automatic release mechanism.
32 . The apparatus of claim 24 , said ring head container comprising a top portion being substantially parallel to said cap when closed and side walls being substantially perpendicular to said cap when closed.
33 . The apparatus of claim 32 , wherein said side walls are configured for coaxially securing at least one loop earring.
34 . The apparatus of claim 33 , further comprising at least one earring coaxially secured to said ring head container.
35 . The apparatus of claim 33 , wherein said side walls are grooved.
36 . The apparatus of claim 33 , wherein said side walls are concave.
37 . A multi-function jewelry apparatus comprising:
a substantially hollow head portion comprising a ring head container and a cap, said ring head container being configured to coaxially secure at least one earring and being detachably mounted to said cap, wherein said ring head container and said cap close to form said substantially hollow head portion, said cap having a radial pin extending outward from a bottom surface of said cap; a ring hull for detachably mounting said head portion, said ring hull having a receptacle for receiving and engaging said radial pin; and a looped ring portion attached to said head portion for hanging said head portion.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
