Patent number: 10238190Abstract: A mounting holds a grooved gemstone invisibly to a setting. One end of the mounting has arms or extensions to receive the gemstone and protrusions extending inwardly from the arms to fit in the grooves of the gemstone, the mounting further comprising a holding configuration for holding the mounting to the setting. Insertion of the mounting into the setting may in one version distort the holding configuration and levers the arms to press harder into the groove.Type: GrantFiled: July 28, 2016Date of Patent: March 26, 2019Assignee: Grand Rainbow International LimitedInventor: Khanh Tan Huynh

Patent number: 9955758Abstract: A jewelry item has a ring part pivotally attached to a closure at one end. The closure spans the continuity of the ring from an end of the ring part and comprises a ring continuation arm extending in continuity of the ring and pivotally attached to and of the ring part at a pivoted connection. The closure further comprises a bias arm extending along with the ring continuation arm along said ring continuity. The bias arm comprises a spring part and a lever part pivotally attached to each other. A connection between said lever part and the ring part is rigid, so that as the ring part is opened, said lever part is configured to rotate inwardly towards an interior of said item. The spring part has a natural shape of smaller circumference than the ring part so that once a certain extent is reached, the spring part pulls the lever part towards the spring part in order to allow the spring part to attain its smaller diameter and thus establish a stable open position.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2013Date of Patent: May 1, 2018Assignee: Grand Rainbow International LimitedInventor: Khanh Tan Huynh

Publication number: 20180020787Abstract: A jewelry item has a ring part pivotally attached to a closure at one end, the closure comprising a ring continuation arm pivotally attached to the ring part, and a bias arm which in turn has a spring part and a lever pivotally attached to each other, the bias arm being rigidly attached to the ring part, so that as the ring part is opened, the lever rotates inwardly, pulling the pivoted end of the spring part, the spring part having a natural shape of smaller circumference than the ring itself so that once a certain extent is reached, the spring part pulls the lever to allow the spring part to attain its smaller diameter and thus establishes a stable open position. On closure of the ring part, the lever pushes the spring part outwardly towards the ring continuation arm to establish a second stable position to close the earring.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 14, 2017Publication date: January 25, 2018Applicant: Grand Rainbow International LimitedInventor: Khanh Tan HUYNH

Patent number: 9591900Abstract: A jewelry item has a closure that uses shape memory to provide two stable positions. For example, an earring has a setting and a pin, and the closure closes the pin over the ear. The closure consists of a leaf spring extending outwardly in a first loop part from a first location on the setting and looping back in a second loop part to a second location adjacent the first location on the setting. The loop parts each have shape memory and are set with different remembered shapes. The two different remembered shapes work against each other to flip the closure between two stable positions, a first position in which the closure connects to the pin to close the earring and a second position in which the closure is spaced away from the pin to open the earring. The design is particularly suitable for a huggie style earring.Type: GrantFiled: October 14, 2014Date of Patent: March 14, 2017Assignee: Grand Rainbow International LimitedInventor: Khanh Tan Huynh

Publication number: 20160270490Abstract: An openable jewellery item arranged to be worn about a portion of a body of a person comprises two arcuate sections pivotally interconnected at one end for permitting pivotal movement of the sections between opened and closed positions, a locking surface disposed on each arcuate section at a second end, each locking surface cooperating with the facing locking surface of the other arcuate section for releasably retaining the arcuate sections in a closed position; the two locking surfaces each having oppositely facing hook contours; one locking surface has a weakened length to provide springiness. A pivotal section connects between the two arcuate sections to tension the sections towards the opened position, and in variations to tension the hooks to engage. A release is pressed to disengage the hooks. A variation has catches at both sides to allow complete separation of the sections.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 27, 2014Publication date: September 22, 2016Inventor: Khanh Tan HUYNH

Publication number: 20160270494Abstract: A mounting holds a grooved gemstone invisibly to a setting. One end of the mounting has arms or extensions, reinforced by struts, to receive the gemstone and protrusions extending inwardly from the arms to fit in the grooves of the gemstone, the mounting further comprising a retainer which is inserted into the setting, and then twisted to retain the mounting in place and may lever the arms to press harder into the groove. The mounting is adjustable. The retainer may be cylindrical, with a lengthwise split to make the deformation easier. As an alternative, the insertion may comprise planar members which are likewise inserted and then distorted. The mounting may have two or more gemstone compartments. Multiple coronets may be fitted on a molded base with reinforcements between the coronets.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 13, 2014Publication date: September 22, 2016Inventor: Khanh Tan HUYNH
