    Thank you for answer, but scale changes all. If i want to change only the diameter of path circle and not the diameter of the section, how can i do it?

    Why not just use revolve in this case? You could revolve 3 circles at once.

    Here's a very simple document which creates the 3 rings in one sketch and one revolve feature. Unless you're likely to change from sweeping on a circular path to some other shape, capturing your design intent with a revolve makes more sense.
