  • Patent number: 10433623
    Abstract: An assembly for alternatively ornamenting a proximal end of a finger and enhancing friction at the finger's distal end, the assembly incorporating first and second bands; an adjustable ring clasp for alternatively receiving and releasing the finger; a magnetic crown; a wholly formed joint interconnecting the magnetic crown and the second band, the wholly formed joint positioning the magnetic crown over the second band's upper end; a shaft having an anchor end pivotally attached to the first band, and having an opposite end attached to the second band, the shaft being adapted for, upon mounting of the first band upon the finger, orbiting and counter-orbiting the second band between flexed and extended positions wherein upon flexing the magnetic crown may overlie the proximal end of the finger, and wherein upon extending, the magnetic crown may overlie the finger's distal end.

  • Patent number: 10182624
    Abstract: An assembly for ornamenting a proximal end of a finger and for enhancing friction at the distal end of the finger, the assembly incorporating first and second bands; a void within the second band for receiving and releasing the finger; a frictional crown attached to the second band; and a shaft having an anchor end pivotally attached to the first band and having an opposite end pivotally attached to the second band, the shaft being adapted for guiding, orbiting, and counter-orbiting movements of the second band between flexed and extended positions, wherein in the flexed position, the crown overlies the proximal end of the finger, and wherein in extended position, the crown overlies the finger's distal end.
