Finger-mounted marking apparatus

Abstract

A finger-mounted marking apparatus including a finger ring having a ring-shaped finger member and a substantially trapezoidal continuous upper member. A single substantially trapezoidal opening is disposed within the substantially trapezoidal continuous upper member of the finger ring from a rear surface to a front surface. A writing utensil is slidably and removably engageable within the single substantially trapezoidal opening. The ring-shaped finger member of the finger ring is selectively slidable on a finger of a wearer.

Claims

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

(6) With reference now to the drawings, and in particular FIGS. 1 through 4 thereof, an example of the instant finger-mounted marking apparatus employing the principles and concepts of the present finger-mounted marking apparatus and generally designated by the reference number 10 will be described.

(7) Referring to FIGS. 1 through 4 the present finger-mounted marking apparatus 10 is illustrated. The finger-mounted marking apparatus 10 includes a finger ring 20 having a ring-shaped finger member 22 and a substantially trapezoidal continuous upper member 24 having a front surface 26, a rear surface 28, a pair of side sections 30 attached to the ring-shaped finger member 22, and a top section 32 disposed between each of the pair of side sections 30. Each of the pair of side sections 30 is inwardly tapered from the top section 32 to the ring-shaped finger member 22. A single substantially trapezoidal opening 34 is disposed within the substantially trapezoidal continuous upper member 24 of the finger ring 20 from the rear surface 28 to the front surface 26.

(8) The finger-mounted marking apparatus 10 further includes a writing utensil 36 slidably and removably engageable within the single substantially trapezoidal opening 34. The writing utensil 36 is optionally a carpenter pencil 38 and, alternately, a marker 40. The ring-shaped finger member 22 of the finger ring 20 is selectively slidable on a finger of a wearer.
