Wrapable Ring
Abstract
A variable length of a jewelry assembly includes one or more display links or sections for accepting and displaying a gemstone or another focal element. Some display links are enlarged relative to other portions. Some display links are contoured to match a curve of a digit such as a ring finger when the length is wound around the digit. A length can include coaxial elements connected to each other and are moveable in relation to each other. A length of the assembly is selected such that it fits securely around a digit of a particular user when wound an integer number of times. A size and a number of each link or length-building element are selectable to fit the assembly an integer number of times around a digit.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is:
1 . A jewelry assembly comprising:
a first display platform having a first edge and a second edge, the first display platform sized for a digit, the first display platform having: a first receiver formed at a first location along the first edge, and a second receiver formed at a second location along the second edge; a first segment of a first length coupled to the first receiver of the first display platform; a second segment of a second length coupled to the second receiver of the first display platform; and a connector coupled to the first segment and configured to secure the first segment to a receiver of the second segment.
2 . The jewelry assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first receiver of the first display platform is formed at a position offset left or right from a position directly opposite on the second edge of the first display platform.
3 . The jewelry assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first segment is formed of links of a first type of material connected in series one to another.
4 . The jewelry assembly of claim 1 , wherein:
the first segment is formed of a first type of material; and
the second segment is formed of a second type of material different from the first type of material.
5 . The jewelry assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first type of material or the second type of material is an organic based material.
6 . The jewelry assembly of claim 1 , wherein a portion of the first segment is shaped to cross at least one portion of the second segment at a crossing, wherein a combined thickness of the first segment and the second segment at the crossing is 1.8 or less in thickness of a larger thickness of a thickness of the first segment and a thickness of the second segment.
7 . The jewelry assembly of claim 1 , wherein a portion of the first segment includes at least a portion of its surface shaped to structurally engage with a portion of the second segment at a crossing of the first segment and the second segment.
8 . The jewelry assembly of claim 7 , wherein the portion of the first segment shaped to structurally engage the portion of the second segment includes a link made of a third type of material different from either the first type of material or the second type of material.
9 . The jewelry assembly of claim 1 , wherein:
a bottom surface of the first display platform is contoured to match an outer surface of the digit.
10 . The jewelry assembly of claim 1 , wherein:
the first display platform is substantially planar on a top surface of the first display platform; and the jewelry assembly further comprises:
a translucent accessory affixed to the top surface of the first display platform.
11 . The jewelry assembly of claim 1 , wherein:
the first display platform has a teardrop shaped outer profile; the first receiver is formed at an intersection of the first edge and the second edge forming a point of the teardrop shaped outer profile.
12 . A jewelry assembly comprising:
a first display platform having a first edge and a second edge, the first display platform sized for a digit, the first display platform having: a first receiver formed at a first location along the first edge, and a second receiver formed at a second location along a second edge; a second display platform having a first edge and a second edge, the second display platform sized for the digit, the second display platform having: a first receiver formed at a first location along its first edge, and a second receiver formed at a second location along its second edge; a first segment of a first length coupled at a proximal end to the first receiver of the first display platform; a second segment of a second length coupled at a proximal end to the second receiver of the first display platform and coupled at a distal end to the first receiver of the second di splay platform; and a third segment of a third length coupled at a proximal end to the second receiver of the second display platform and coupled at a distal end to the first segment.
13 . The jewelry assembly of claim 12 , wherein:
the third segment includes a connector at the distal end of the third segment, the connector coupling the distal end of the third segment to the first segment; and the connector is a clasp having a hinged arm moveable from a closed position to an open position.
14 . The jewelry assembly of claim 12 , wherein:
the second length of the second segment is selected so as to place the second display platform an offset distance from the first display platform when the jewelry assembly is wound into a fitted position on the digit.
15 . The jewelry assembly of claim 12 , wherein:
the second length of the second segment is selected so as to place the second display platform adjacent to the first display platform when the jewelry assembly is wound into a fitted position on the digit.
16 . The jewelry assembly of claim 12 , wherein:
the second length of the second segment is selected to place both the first display platform and the second display platform on a same hemisphere of the digit when the jewelry assembly is wound into a fitted position on the digit.
17 . The jewelry assembly of claim 16 , wherein:
the second segment is made of links of a first material, each link having a same thickness dimension and a same length dimension; the second segment includes at least six links of the first material; and wherein the length dimension of the links is selected to place both the first display platform and the second display platform on the same hemisphere of the digit when the jewelry assembly is wound into the fitted position on the digit.
18 . The jewelry assembly of claim 12 , wherein:
a thickness dimension of the first display platform is greater than a thickness dimension of any one of the first segment, the second segment, and the third segment.
19 . The jewelry assembly of claim 12 , wherein:
the first segment, the second segment, or the third segment is made of links of a first material, the links having a thickness dimension and a length dimension; and a thickness dimension of any of the links is larger than a thickness dimension of the other segments.
20 . The jewelry assembly of claim 12 , wherein:
the second length of the second segment is selected to place both the first display platform and the second display platform on a same hemisphere of the digit when the jewelry assembly is wound into a fitted position on the digit; and the first length and the third length are each chosen such that a distal end of the first segment and a distal end of the third segment substantially meet together when the jewelry assembly is wound into the fitted position on the digit, the jewelry assembly wrapping an integer number of times around the digit.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
