Abstract

The clip is of the type which can be actuated by means of an auxiliary actuating member. It consists of two parts, namely a clamp (1), whose two arms are connected by a thin portion (7), and a slotted recess (8) in which an actuating member (2), consisting of a pin with a diameter greater than the diameter of the recess (8), or a cam equipped with a radial arm is accommodated. The insertion of the pin, or the rotation of the cam, results in closure of the clamp by causing the thin portion (7) to flex elastically. <IMAGE>

Description

La présente invention a pour objet une agrafe consti­tuée d'une pince et d'un organe d'actionnement pour la fermeture de la pince par écartement de deux parties de la pince par écartement des deux parties de la pince contre l'action d'un moyen élastique.The subject of the present invention is a clip consisting of a clamp and an actuating member for closing the clamp by spreading two parts of the clamp by spreading the two parts of the clamp against the action of a elastic means.

Une telle agrafe est connue du brevet CH 631 520. Cette agrafe est constituée d'une pince en deux parties arti­culées et maintenues ouvertes par l'action d'un ressort en cor de chasse. La pince peut être fermée par une came solidaire d'un levier. En position fermée de la pince, le levier d'actionnement de la came est situé dans le prolongement de la pince, car l'agrafe est des­tinée à être montée sur des bretelles ou des ceintures ou à suspendre des vêtements ou du papier. La fabrica­tion d'une telle agrafe nécessite l'assemblage de la pince et du ressort, opérations qui ne sont pas aisées à réaliser de façon automatique et qui ont un effet sensible sur le prix de revient d'une telle agrafe.Such a clip is known from patent CH 631 520. This clip consists of a clamp in two articulated parts and held open by the action of a spring in hunting horn. The clamp can be closed by a cam secured to a lever. In the closed position of the clamp, the cam actuating lever is located in the extension of the clamp, because the clip is intended to be mounted on suspenders or belts or to hang clothes or paper. The manufacture of such a clip requires the assembly of the clamp and the spring, operations which are not easy to carry out automatically and which have a significant effect on the cost price of such a clip.

La présente invention a pour but de réaliser une agrafe du même type mais de fabrication sensiblement plus simple et ne comportant notamment pas de ressort.The object of the present invention is to produce a staple of the same type but of considerably simpler manufacture and notably comprising no spring.

L'agrafe selon l'invention est caractérisée par le fait que la pince et le moyen élastique sont en une seule pièce présentant deux branches de pince reliées à leur base par une partie mince formant charnière élastique et, de l'autre côté de cette partie mince, un logement cylindrique, de section circulaire ou non, parallèle à la partie mince, ouvert latéralement selon une généra­trice opposée à ladite paroi mince, et destiné à rece­voir l'organe d'actionnement de la pince.The clip according to the invention is characterized in that the clamp and the elastic means are in one piece having two clamp branches connected to their base by a thin part forming an elastic hinge and, on the other side of this part thin, a cylindrical housing, of circular section or not, parallel to the thin part, open laterally according to a generatrix opposite to said thin wall, and intended to receive the actuating member of the clamp.

L'agrafe selon l'invention se compose donc de deux pièces seulement, la pince et l'organe d'actionnement.The clip according to the invention therefore consists of only two parts, the clamp and the actuating member.

L'organe d'actionnement peut être une simple goupille ou une came solidaire d'un bras radial pour son entraî­nement en rotation.The actuating member can be a simple pin or a cam secured to a radial arm for its rotational drive.

L'agrafe selon l'invention peut non seulement être uti­lisée pour maintenir des objets plats et minces ensem­ble, mais également comme support pour un objet destiné à être fixé temporairement sur un autre objet. En par­ticulier, l'agrafe peut être munie d'une montre que l'on peut ainsi fixer rapidement et amoviblement sur un vêtement, un bracelet ou autres. Dans le cas où l'agra­fe comporte une came munie d'un bras d'actionnement, ce bras peut servir de support à l'agrafe, permettant de placer la montre en position oblique sur une table.The clip according to the invention can not only be used to hold flat and thin objects together, but also as a support for an object intended to be temporarily fixed on another object. In particular, the clip can be provided with a watch which can thus be quickly and removably attached to clothing, a bracelet or the like. In the case where the clip has a cam provided with an actuating arm, this arm can serve as a support for the clip, making it possible to place the watch in an oblique position on a table.

L'agrafe représentée à la figure 1 est constituée d'une pince 1 et d'un organe d'actionnement 2.The clip shown in FIG. 1 consists of a clamp 1 and an actuating member 2.

La pince 1 est en une seule pièce, en matière synthéti­que injectée telle que nylon (Marque déposée) ou poly­ester ou polyamide chargé de fibres. Elle présente deux bras de pince 3 et 4 parallèles et munis sur leur face en regard d'aspérités 5 et 6. Les deux bras 3 et 4 de la pince sont reliés, à leur base, par une partie rela­tivement mince 7 pouvant fléchir élastiquement. De l'autre côté de cette partie mince 7, la pince présente un logement cylindrique 8 s'étendant parallèlement à la partie 7 et ouvert latéralement selon une fente 9 s'étendant selon une génératrice opposée à la partie 7. Le logement cylindrique 8 est donc lui-même limité par deux bras 10 et 11. L'organe d'actionnement 2 est cons­titué, dans cette première forme d'exécution, par une goupille cylindrique munie d'une extrémité tronconique 12 et d'un court-bras radial 13 à l'autre extrémité. Le diamètre de la goupille 2 est légèrement supérieur au diamètre du logement cylindrique 8 de la pince. Pour serrer la pince on introduit, en forçant, la goupille 2 dans le logement 8. En raison de son diamètre supérieur au diamètre du logement 8, la goupille 2 écarte les deux bras 10 et 11 limitant le logement 8, ce qui a pour effet de rapprocher les bras 3 et 4 de la pince comme représenté à la figure 2. Pour ouvrir l'agrafe, on retire la goupille 2 par son bras 13. L'agrafe peut servir de support à un objet, par exemple une montre 14 dont le contour a été représenté en traits mixtes à la figure 2.The clamp 1 is in one piece, made of injected synthetic material such as nylon (registered trademark) or polyester or polyamide loaded with fibers. It has two gripper arms 3 and 4 parallel and provided on their opposite face with roughness 5 and 6. The two arms 3 and 4 of the gripper are connected, at their base, by a relatively thin part 7 which can flex elastically. On the other side of this thin part 7, the clamp has a cylindrical housing 8 extending parallel to the part 7 and open laterally according to a slot 9 extending along a generatrix opposite to the part 7. The cylindrical housing 8 is therefore itself limited by two arms 10 and 11. The actuating member 2 is constituted, in this first embodiment, by a cylindrical pin provided with a frustoconical end 12 and a radial short arm 13 at the other end. The diameter of the pin 2 is slightly greater than the diameter of the cylindrical housing 8 of the clamp. To tighten the clamp, we introduce, by forcing, the pin 2 into the housing 8. Because of its diameter greater than the diameter of the housing 8, the pin 2 spreads the two arms 10 and 11 limiting the housing 8, which has the effect to bring the arms 3 and 4 of the clamp together as shown in FIG. 2. To open the clip, the pin 2 is removed by its arm 13. The clip can be used to support an object, for example a watch 14 whose the outline has been shown in phantom in Figure 2.

La seconde forme d'exécution représentée aux figures 4 à 7 comprend une pince presque identique à la pince 1 de la première forme d'exécution. Elle en diffère par une branche 4′ plus courte que la branche 3 et par un logement 8′ de section ovale. En outre, les extrémités 15 et 16 du logement cylindrique 8′ ont une section plus grande que le reste du logement. L'organe d'ac­tionnement de la pince est constitué d'une came 17 en forme de cylindre de section ovale approximativement identique à celle du logement 8′ et dont les extrémités 18 et 19 sont de sections un peu plus grandes et viennent se loger dans les extrémités 15 et 16 du loge­ment 8 de manière à verrouiller axialement la came 17 dans le logement 8′. La came 17 est munie d'un bras ra­dial 20 présentant une partie coudée 21 s'étendant parallèlement à la came 17. Lorsque le bras 20 est di­rigé perpendiculairement à la pince, comme représenté à la figure 4, les sections ovales de la came 17 et du logement 8' de la pince coïncident, de telle sorte que l'agrafe est ouverte. Lorsqu'on rabat le bras 20 paral­lèlement à la pince, la came 17 écarte les bras 10 et 11 du logement 8′, ce qui a pour effet de fermer la pince, comme représenté à la figure 5.The second embodiment shown in Figures 4 to 7 comprises a clamp almost identical to the clamp 1 of the first embodiment. It differs from it by a branch 4 ′ shorter than branch 3 and by a housing 8 ′ of oval section. In addition, the ends 15 and 16 of the cylindrical housing 8 ′ have a larger section than the rest of the housing. The actuating member of the clamp consists of a cam 17 in the form of a cylinder with an oval section approximately identical to that of the housing 8 ′ and the ends 18 and 19 of which are slightly larger in section and are housed in the ends 15 and 16 of the housing 8 so as to axially lock the cam 17 in the housing 8 ′. The cam 17 is provided with a radial arm 20 having a bent portion 21 extending parallel to the cam 17. When the arm 20 is directed perpendicular to the clamp, as shown in FIG. 4, the oval sections of the cam 17 and the housing 8 'of the clamp coincide, so that the clip is open. When the arm 20 is folded parallel to the clamp, the cam 17 spreads the arms 10 and 11 of the housing 8 ′, which has the effect of closing the clamp, as shown in FIG. 5.

Cette agrafe peut également porter un objet, par exemple une montre 14. Dans ce cas, le bras 20 peut être également utilisé comme support pour maintenir la montre en position oblique, posé sur une table comme représenté à la figure 8.This clip can also carry an object, for example a watch 14. In this case, the arm 20 can also be used as a support to keep the watch in an oblique position, placed on a table as shown in FIG. 8.

L'agrafe selon la première ou seconde forme d'exécu­tion, munie d'une montre, peut être fixée sur tout objet plat ou partie d'objet plate et d'épaisseur adé­quate. Ainsi, la montre peut être pincée sur une pièce de vêtement, par exemple sur une poche, sur une chemise ou sur un revers de veste. Elle peut également être fixée sur un porte-clés munie d'une languette ou sur un lacet pour être portée autour du cou, par exemple. Elle peut notamment être portée sur un bracelet, comme représenté à la figure 9, ce qui en fait une montre-­bracelet ou sur la manchette d'une chemise, comme re­présenté à la figure 10, ce qui en fait une montre-­bracelet sans bracelet. On notera la très faible partie dépassant latéralement le bracelet, respectivement la manchette.The clip according to the first or second embodiment, provided with a watch, can be fixed to any flat object or part of a flat object and of adequate thickness. Thus, the watch can be pinched on a piece of clothing, for example on a pocket, on a shirt or on a jacket lapel. It can also be attached to a key ring with a tongue or to a lace to be worn around the neck, for example. It can in particular be worn on a bracelet, as shown in FIG. 9, which makes it a wristwatch or on the cuff of a shirt, as shown in FIG. 10, which makes it a wristwatch without bracelet . Note the very small part laterally projecting from the bracelet, respectively the cuff.

L'agrafe selon l'invention, munie d'une montre ou non, peut bien entendu être utilisée tout simplement comme agrafe pour maintenir des feuilles ensemble, par exem­ple des billets de banque.The clip according to the invention, equipped with a watch or not, can of course be used quite simply as a clip for holding sheets together, for example banknotes.

Au moyen de deux agrafes selon l'invention reliées par un cordon, il est possible de réaliser un dispositif de sécurité pour fixer un portefeuille ou un porte-­monnaie. L'une des agrafes est fixée au vêtement et l'autre au portefeuille, respectivement au porte-­ monnaie.By means of two staples according to the invention connected by a cord, it is possible to produce a security device for fixing a wallet or a purse. One of the clips is attached to the garment and the other to the wallet, respectively to the holder. change.

L'agrafe peut bien entendu porter tout autre objet de dimension adéquate tel que boussole, médaille, porte-­photo, etc.The clip can of course carry any other object of adequate size such as compass, medal, photo holder, etc.

L'agrafe pourrait être réalisée en métal, notamment par injection d'un alliage d'aluminium.The clip could be made of metal, in particular by injection of an aluminum alloy.

La section de la came d'actionnement et la section du logement de cette came pourraient être autre qu'ovale.The section of the actuating cam and the section of the housing of this cam could be other than oval.

Il convient de souligner que le terme cylindrique est pris dans son sens géométrique le plus général, la sec­tion du cylindre pouvant être circulaire ou non.It should be emphasized that the term cylindrical is taken in its most general geometrical sense, the section of the cylinder possibly being circular or not.
