Jewelry ornament system and method

Abstract

A jewelry ring assembly configured to permit multiple views of a rotatable ornamental inset is disclosed. The system and method utilize a reusable support frame that mechanically constrains a support frame axle. The support frame axle is mechanically coupled to an ornamental element set that is inset within the reusable support frame. The ornamental element set may be rotationally articulated about the support frame axle to enable display presentation of multiple sides of elements with the ornamental element set. The ornamental element set may contain multiple rotatable ornamental insets that individually rotate about the support frame axle and thus permit two or more views of each rotatable ornamental inset to be presented as a multiple number of individual presentation modes within the overall context of the ornamental element set / reusable support frame configuration. Another jewelry assembly includes a necklace that utilizes a reusable suspending string coupled to an ornamental elemental set with the support frame axle.

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This patent describes a jewelry ring assembly that allows for multiple views of a rotating ornament. The assembly includes a support frame that holds the decorative element in place. The frame is connected to the decorative element, so it can rotate. This allows for different sides of the decorative element to be shown. The decorative element may also have multiple rotating parts, which can be rotated separately, allowing for even more viewing options. Overall, this allows for a more intricate and interesting display on a jewelry ring.

Problems solved by technology

While, this arrangement may be used for smaller circular jewelry like beads, it does not allow for larger diameter ornamental insets that have coplanar surfaces, due to rotational space limitation of the base element.

In addition, the arrangement does not provide a mechanism for ornamental insets that have horizontal coplanar surfaces, like a top surface and a bottom surface.

Because of this offset, unbalance mounting arrangement, momentum imparted to the ringlet causes it to rotate about the axis.

However, it does not provide a way for rotating ringlets about a horizontal axis that would enable multiple presentations of ringlet surfaces.

While, the embodiment provides a way for secure closing, it does not enable a way to display multiple views of an ornamental inset that is rotatable.

While this arrangement provides a means to interchange an ornamental article securely, it does not provide a mechanism to display multiple presentation modes of the same article.

The prior art as detailed above suffers from the following deficiencies:Prior art jewelry rings generally do not provide a mechanism for displaying ornamental insets having horizontal coplanar surfaces, like a top surface and a bottom surface, which could be rotated.Prior art jewelry rings generally do not provide a way for rotating ringlets about a horizontal axis that would enable multiple presentations of ringlet surfaces.Prior art jewelry rings generally do not enable a way to display multiple views of an ornamental inset that is rotatable.

While some of the prior art may teach some solutions to several of these problems, the core deficiencies in the prior art systems have not been addressed.
