Protective ring case
View Patent ↗A protective ring case that fully encases a ring inside a hollow interior portion of a generally toroidal protective ring case with an exterior hole in its middle which may be sized, including the thickness of the case, to fit a ring's inner diameter closely, thereby securing said ring inside said hollow portion; wherein the exterior hole of the hollow generally toroidal protective ring case is large enough to fit a carabiner. The case may also have a number of additional coupling mechanisms and security features.
1. A protective ring case for rings that go on fingers made of a material of generally toroidal shape, comprising:
a case top of a generally annular shape comprising a top, a bottom, an outside edge defining an outer radii, and an inside edge defining an inner radii;
a case bottom of a generally hollow open cylindrical shape without a top cover, comprising: a top, a bottom, an outside edge defining an outer radii, an inside edge defining an inner radii, and integral inner and outer walls extending upward from the top of the case bottom along the inner and outer radii upward to a height, the height configured to allow the generally hollow open cylindrical to receive a ring laid on its side, wherein the inner radii of the inner wall is configured to fit an inner radii of the ring closely and the outer radii of the outer wall is configured to fit an outer radii of the ring closely, thereby being capable of securing the ring inside said said ring case;
wherein said case bottom and said case top of said ring case are reversibly coupled and configured to fully encase the ring inside the generally hollow open cylindrical shape of said protective ring case with an exterior hole running through a middle of a case in a closed position; and
wherein said ring case further comprises a closure clasp mechanism to strengthen the case when the case is in the closed position.
2. The protective ring case of claim 1 , wherein the exterior hole of said ring case is large enough to fit a carabiner.
3. The protective ring case of claim 1 , wherein the case top and bottom are reversibly coupled with at least one hinge mechanism, said hinge mechanism configured to move the case top upward and away from the bottom when the bottom of the case bottom is resting on a surface.
4. The protective ring case of claim 3 , wherein said hinge mechanism is configured to move the top and bottom horizontally.
5. The protective ring case of claim 1 , wherein the case top and bottom are reversibly coupled with a pressure fit snap clasp.
6. The protective ring case of claim 1 , wherein the case top and bottom are reversibly coupled with a screw thread closure.
7. The protective ring case of claim 1 , wherein the case top and bottom are reversibly coupled with magnetism.
8. The protective ring case of claim 1 , wherein interior of said case is waterproof when said top and said bottom are coupled in the closed position and said ring case floats.
9. The protective ring case of claim 1 , wherein the case has embedded electronic tracking.
10. The protective ring case of claim 1 , wherein the case is made of a glow in the dark material.
