Abstract

The closure comprises first means (1) whose lower part is in the shape of a U, the arms of the latter being connected by a spindle (2), this lower part forming a passage for a first strand (9), the second strand (10) being articulated to an end (7) of second means (4, 6, 7). The upper part of the first means is in the form of a hook and it permits an articulated link with the second means, comprising a spindle (5) inserted into the groove of the upper part in the form of a hook of the first means (1). The latter comprise a lever (3) which, in a folded or locking position, clamps the part of the first strand (9) which emerges from the passage against the end of the second means to which the second strand (10) is articulated, which fastens and holds the second strand in place. The closure makes it possible to use strands without fixing holes, which contribute to avoiding any risk of these strands breaking. <IMAGE>

Description

La présente invention concerne un fermoir pour assembler deux brins souples, plus particulièrement en cuir. Un tel fermoir peut être utilisé par exemple pour un bra­celet ou une ceinture.The present invention relates to a clasp for joining two flexible strands, more particularly of leather. Such a clasp can be used for example for a bracelet or a belt.

Dans les dispositifs connus de fermoirs pour assembler des brins souples en cuir, ceux-ci comportent des trous prévus pour recevoir un ardillon lors de l'assemblage des brins. Cette construction classique a cependant le désavantage que les brins cassent facilement, en général à l'endroit d'un trou, en raison de la fatigue à laquel­le ils sont soumis.In known devices of clasps for assembling flexible leather strands, these have holes provided for receiving a barb during the assembly of the strands. This conventional construction has the disadvantage, however, that the strands break easily, generally at the location of a hole, due to the fatigue to which they are subjected.

En conséquence, la présente invention se propose de réaliser un fermoir sans ardillon pour assembler des brins souples ne comportant pas de trous, le fermoir permettant d'éviter la rupture des brins. Pour atteindre ce but, le fermoir selon l'invention est réalisé comme décrit dans la revendication 1.Consequently, the present invention proposes to produce a clasp without barbs for assembling flexible strands having no holes, the clasp making it possible to prevent the strands from breaking. To achieve this object, the clasp according to the invention is produced as described in claim 1.

Lors de l'assemblage, le brin libre est inséré dans un passage-guide compris dans un élément du fermoir et limité par le levier de serrage. Lorsque la longueur désirée du brin libre inséré est atteinte, le levier de serrage est rabattu contre la partie de ce brin sortant du passage et le brin est serré par ce levier contre le passage et contre l'extrémité d'un second élément du fermoir à laquelle est articulée l'extrémité du second brin. La tension dans les brins maintient le levier ra­battu dans sa position de verrouillage. Le second élément, en forme de levier permet par pivotement autour d'une articulation, d'ouvrir le fermoir. Ce qui précède montre clairement que le fermoir selon l'invention permet de prévoir des brins ne comportant pas de trous, le brin libre étant simplement tenu par serrage à l'aide d'un levier sous l'action de la force de traction exis­tante dans ce brin lors du porté. Une telle construction est particulièrement propre à éliminer tout risque de rupture des brins.During assembly, the free strand is inserted into a guide passage included in an element of the clasp and limited by the clamping lever. When the desired length of the inserted free strand is reached, the clamping lever is folded against the part of this strand leaving the passage and the strand is clamped by this lever against the passage and against the end of a second element of the clasp. which is articulated the end of the second strand. The tension in the strands keeps the lever folded down in its locked position. The second, lever-shaped element allows it to pivot around a joint to open the clasp. The above clearly shows that the clasp according to the invention makes it possible to provide strands having no holes, the free strand being simply held by clamping using of a lever under the action of the traction force existing in this strand when worn. Such a construction is particularly suitable for eliminating any risk of breakage of the strands.

L'invention va être décrite plus en détail ci-après à l'aide du dessin d'un exemple d'exécution.

  • La figure 1 est une vue en plan du fermoir selon l'in­vention,
  • La figure 2 est une vue latérale du fermoir de la fig. 1, et
  • La figure 3 est une vue en coupe selon la ligne III-III de la figure 1.
The invention will be described in more detail below using the drawing of an exemplary embodiment.
  • FIG. 1 is a plan view of the clasp according to the invention,
  • Figure 2 is a side view of the clasp of FIG. 1, and
  • Figure 3 is a sectional view along line III-III of Figure 1.

Les figures montrent que le fermoir comprend une pièce en U 1 dans la partie inférieure de laquelle un axe 2 est monté entre les deux branches de l'U, un levier de serrage 3 étant articulé sur l'axe 2. La partie supé­rieure de la pièce en U est en forme de crochet comme illustré plus particulièrement en figure 3. On voit que la base de la partie en forme de crochet et les branches verticales de l'U délimitent un passage-guide fermé vers le bas par la partie du levier 3 engagée sur l'axe 2.The figures show that the clasp comprises a U-shaped piece 1 in the lower part of which an axis 2 is mounted between the two branches of the U, a tightening lever 3 being articulated on the axis 2. The upper part of the U-shaped part is hook-shaped as illustrated more particularly in FIG. 3. It can be seen that the base of the hook-shaped part and the vertical branches of the U delimit a guide passage closed downwards by the part of the lever 3 engaged on axis 2.

Le fermoir comporte en outre une pièce 4 en forme de boucle, servant de levier, cette pièce comportant un axe 5 monté entre les extrémités b1 et b2 de la boucle 4. Cet axe 5 s'engage dans la gorge ouverte de la partie en forme de crochet de la pièce en U 1. La pièce 4 comporte aussi des traverses 6 reliant rigidement la partie en forme de boucle 4 à un cylindre ouvert 7 comportant un axe 8 autour duquel est articulée l'ex­trémité du second brin 10. En condition ouverte du fermoir, le levier 3 est rabattu vers le bas en figures 2 et 3, dans le sens de la flèche et, lors de l'intro­duction du brin 9 dans le passage de la pièce 1 comme mentionné plus haut, il se trouve approximativement en position horizontale ou légèrement inclinée vers le bas. Lorsque la longueur désirée du brin 9 est atteinte, le levier 3 est rabattu vers le haut dans la position illustrée dans les figures 2 et 3. Dans cette position, le levier 3 appuie le brin 9 à la fois contre la base de la partie en forme de crochet de la pièce 1 et contre le cylindre ouvert 7, et ceci grace à la traction exer­cée sur les brins 9 et 10 dans des directions opposées indiquées par les flèches f1 et f2 en figure 3. L'effet de ces forces de traction se traduisant par un couple cherchant à faire pivoter le levier 3 vers le haut en figure 3, ce qui produit la force de serrage du brin 9 dans le passage et contre le cylindre ouvert 7. Plus les forces f1 et f2 sont élevées, plus grande est la force de serrage. Pour augmenter le frottement entre le levier 3 et le brin 9, il est possible de prévoir une face intérieure rugueuse du levier 3, par exemple en lui adjoignant des rainures ou toute autre configuration appropriée.The clasp further comprises a part 4 in the form of a loop, serving as a lever, this part comprising an axis 5 mounted between the ends b1 and b2 of the loop 4. This axis 5 engages in the open groove of the shaped part hook of the U-shaped part 1. The part 4 also includes cross-members 6 rigidly connecting the loop-shaped part 4 to an open cylinder 7 having an axis 8 around which the end of the second strand 10 is articulated. In open condition of clasp, the lever 3 is folded down in Figures 2 and 3, in the direction of the arrow and, when introducing the strand 9 in the passage of the part 1 as mentioned above, it is approximately in position horizontal or slightly inclined downwards. When the desired length of the strand 9 is reached, the lever 3 is folded upwards in the position illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 3. In this position, the lever 3 presses the strand 9 both against the base of the part in hook shape of the part 1 and against the open cylinder 7, and this thanks to the traction exerted on the strands 9 and 10 in opposite directions indicated by the arrows f1 and f2 in Figure 3. The effect of these traction forces resulting in a torque seeking to pivot the lever 3 upwards in FIG. 3, which produces the clamping force of the strand 9 in the passage and against the open cylinder 7. The higher the forces f1 and f2, the greater is the clamping force. To increase the friction between the lever 3 and the strand 9, it is possible to provide a rough inner face of the lever 3, for example by adding grooves or any other suitable configuration.

Pour ouvrir le fermoir, il suffit de chercher à faire pivoter le levier 4 dans le sens de la flèche en fi­gure 2. Cette action permet à la pièce 4, 6, 7 un léger pivotement autour de son axe 5 engagé dans la gorge de la partie en forme de crochet de la pièce 1, ce pivo­tement ayant pour effet de faire basculer vers le bas le cylindre ouvert 7, ce qui, à travers le brin 9 fait pivoter le levier 3 vers le bas et dégage celui-ci de sa position de verrouillage. Le brin 9 est alors libéré.To open the clasp, it suffices to seek to pivot the lever 4 in the direction of the arrow in FIG. 2. This action allows the part 4, 6, 7 a slight pivoting around its axis 5 engaged in the groove of the hook-shaped part of part 1, this pivoting having the effect of tilting down the open cylinder 7, which, through the strand 9 makes pivot the lever 3 down and releases it from its position lock. Strand 9 is then released.

Comme indiqué plus haut, le fermoir peut être prévu pour un bracelet, une ceinture, etc. Il ne comporte pas d'ardillon et les brins ne comportent pas de trous. La fixation se fait par serrage du brin libre, ce qui élimine toute fatigue et évite tout risque de rupture de celui-ci.As indicated above, the clasp can be provided for a bracelet, a belt, etc. It has no barb and the strands have no holes. The fixing is done by tightening the free strand, which eliminates any fatigue and avoids any risk of it breaking.
