Anyone know this bit? Loose ring.

[vicm2509]

Can anyone tell me what type of bit this is.

Its a loose ring but instead of the ring going through small holes on the mouthpiece, the mouthpiece is sort of curved aroung the bit rings slightly but the ring still slides freely through them?

Its looks like it is designed so it doesnt pinch but so its still a loose ring. Also I think the mouthpiece is slightly more curved than usual. It was either a single jointed or a french link.

Bit of a bad description but if you have one I am sure you will know what I mean.
