Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for making the removable fixing of a housing, having an upper part and a lower part, on a piece of fabric or a sheet of deformable material.
  • the case of the assembly contains a watch movement.
  • the time indicator function of the accessory watch remains important. However, in the same way as a scarf, a tie or a handbag, it has become common to have several watches, which we match with the clothes we wear, or that we adapt to our activity momentary. In particular, watches whose straps can be changed easily are an easy way to adapt.
  • a watch designed to allow a change of bracelet is described in the European patent application published under number 0198801.
  • This patent application describes an assembly comprising a flat case fixed on a textile or a synthetic or natural thin material.
  • the textile or the thin material comprises a ring crimped on the periphery of a hole previously made in the textile at a predetermined location, the housing having a circular bottom introduced into the ring and substantially the same thickness as the latter.
  • the housing and the ring have cooperating retaining means for ensuring a removable fixing of the housing on the textile.
  • the watch produced using the assembly described in European patent application No. 0198801 fulfills well the watch-accessory function mentioned above. Indeed, the variety of textiles or synthetic materials taking the place of a strap on which the watch case can be fixed are numerous and varied. However, the cost of manufacturing such straps is relatively high, since it is necessary to crimp a ring around the edge of a hole previously made in the textile or other material constituting the bracelet. This cost is all the higher as said crimping must be carried out on an elastic material.
  • Swiss Patent No. 351224 describes a wristwatch case the bottom of which has a diametrical passage for the watch strap, made in its thickness.
  • This box can therefore be removably attached to the bracelet which could consist of a piece of fabric.
  • the shape of such a piece of fabric cannot be chosen at will, since it is clear that this piece is necessarily constituted by a strip whose width is less than that of said passage made in the bottom of the box.
  • British Patent No. 1,156,894 describes a device for fixing a watch case on a bracelet having an opening allowing the passage of the lower part of the case as well as a fixing ring intended to engage on the wall of this lower part of the case in order to retain the case fixed on the bracelet.
  • the bracelet is made of fabric or covered with fabric, it is necessary that an opening is made in the bracelet and, if necessary, in the fabric covering it, in order to allow the passage of the part. bottom of the case.
  • This device therefore does not make it possible to fix a watch case on a piece of fabric without piercing an opening in the fabric where it is desired to fix the case.
  • Swiss Patent No. 349.223 describes a device for attaching a watch case to a bracelet, by means of a piece removably mounted on the box and comprising fixing handles. This device does not make it possible to fix a watch case on a piece of fabric having a width greater than that of the fixing handles.
  • the Swiss patent No 333.998 describes a device making it possible to fix a watch on a clothing element, but it requires, on the one hand, the presence of the slit through this element, such as a jacket buttonhole and, on the other hand, that of a barrel from production with the watch case.
  • German utility model No 1.790.789 describes a bracelet in the form of a band in two parts, each of which is provided, at one end, with a transverse bulge arranged so as to be able to be fixed in a groove of corresponding shape formed in the side wall of the watch case, in order to allow the removable fixing of this bracelet on this case.
  • This device therefore requires a special arrangement of the strap and it does not make it possible to fix a watch case on any unspecified location of a piece of fabric.
  • French Patent No. 1,564,277 describes a device for fixing a bracelet to a watch case, this device comprising a removable fixing piece axially pressing the part of the bracelet surrounding a hole, through which a projection extends from the bottom of the box, against part of the watch case.
  • This device therefore requires the drilling of a hole in the bracelet and it would not allow a watch case to be fixed to a piece of fabric or an article of clothing not including an opening at the place where it is desired to place the watch box.
  • French Patent No. 1,598,983 describes a wristwatch in which the case is either removably attached to the bracelet, or glued or welded to it.
  • the bracelet In the first case, the bracelet is pierced with an opening for the passage of the bottom of the case. None of the variants of the device for fixing the case to the bracelet, described in this patent, therefore makes it possible to removably fix a watch case on a piece of fabric or clothing without having to pierce an opening for the passage of the box where you want to place it.
  • Swiss Patent No 536.083 describes a wristwatch in which the bracelet has an opening for the passage of the watch case, this opening being surrounded by a reinforcement frame, embedded in the material of the bracelet, intended to hold in place the part of the box engaged in said opening, engaging in a lateral recess formed in this part of the box.
  • the removable fixing device of the box on the bracelet therefore also includes an opening for the passage of the box and it would not allow a watch case to be fixed on a piece of fabric or a garment without such an opening. where you want to place this watch.
  • Swiss patent application No. 647,918 describes a wristwatch in which the watch case comprises two plates held at a distance by an annular spacer, these plates extending beyond this spacer while providing a free annular space in which the bracelet engages.
  • the device for fixing the box to the bracelet therefore also requires that the latter has an opening for the passage of the watch case.
  • the object of the invention is to propose an assembly allowing the removable fixing of a case, in particular a watch case, on a support, making it possible to remedy the drawbacks mentioned above.
  • the invention aims to allow the assembly of a case either on a bracelet covered with a removable fabric sheath, or on a piece of fabric, constituting for example a piece of clothing, without requiring a particular arrangement of the fabric where it is desired to make this assembly and without damaging the fabric.
  • the fixing device is characterized in that it comprises a support having an opening arranged so as to allow the nesting of the lower part of the housing in this opening, by driving a part of said part. of fabric or sheet of deformable material, the upper edge of this opening engaging under a flat rim projecting from the upper part of the housing, pinching said fabric or said sheet against this rim, and an elastic tension member whose external dimensions are, in the idle state, substantially greater than the internal dimensions of said opening of the support, this tension member being arranged so as to be able to be housed in a peripheral groove formed in the external wall of the lower part of the housing.
  • the support is in the form of a rigid bracelet, having a flat part comprising an opening in which the case is fixed, this bracelet being covered with a removable sheath of elastic fabric.
