Personal ornament container with cradle that pivots for object presentation upon opening
Abstract:
A container includes a base and a shell rotatably coupled. The shell defines an aperture and a cradle is rotatably mounted therein. The top of the cradle holds an object and the cradle is pivotable between presentation and storage positions. An actuatable member is movable to open or occlude the aperture. Rotation of the base relative to the shell, in a first direction, drives the actuatable member towards an open position and pivots the cradle towards the presentation position, and rotation in a second direction drives the actuatable member towards a closed position and pivots the cradle towards the storage position. A lever pin on the cradle extends through a C-slot of an inner mechanism rotating with the base to a channel on the shell. Rotation between the base and shell causes the channel to drive the lever pin to different ends of the C-slot to thereby pivot the cradle.
