Hinged Ring System

ILC Reference NO 12:89:002
Item sourced from ILC VIC database

Hinged Ring

Factors to Consider
May assist users who have swollen fingers or joints or reduced movement.
· The joining of more than one ring may reduce the rubbing on the users fingers caused by the movement of the individual rings.
This may allow those who have existing rings to wear and remove them.



Short Description
A hinged clasp that is created from the existing band of a ring and allows the ring to be opened. A section of the band may be opened out and fitted around the base of the finger instead of pushing over the knuckle. If the user wears a group of rings on one finger they can all be joined together and hinged to open as one ring. An inbuilt safety catch secures the clasp.
