Definitions
- the present invention relates to wristwatches and in particular improvements to the means for attaching a bracelet to a watch. It is known that a wristwatch comprises a case and, on each side of it, a support piece fixed to this case, a part of which extends over its side wall to serve as a support for the wound part of the bracelet.
- the best known type of attachment of a bracelet to a watch is to wind the bracelet around an axis held by at least one support integral with the watch.
- the bracelet is wound around the lateral branches of said T-shaped support, forming said axis mentioned above, while the central branch of the fixing piece is secured to the housing.
- the strap When the strap is placed in the plane of the case, it conceals the fixing piece or support, but when it is inclined relative to the plane of the watch, i.e. when the watch is placed on the user's wrist , the recess provided between the lateral branches of the support, and the corresponding part of the support is of course visible.
- the present invention relates to an original means of fixing a bracelet to a watch, the latter comprising a case, and on each side, a part fixed to this case and projecting from its side wall to serve as a support for the wound part of the bracelet, means making it particularly simple and economical to avoid this major drawback mentioned above.
- a wristwatch comprising a case and on each side a support piece fixed to this case, part of which projects beyond its side wall to serve as support for the wound part of the strap, watch according to which part of the support piece projecting from the side wall of the housing has at least part of its upper face inclined downward and in that the end of the bracelet is wound above a profiled insert in the general shape of loop having an upper part also inclined, insert which is rigidly fixed on the support piece.
- the invention allows a downward orientation of the bracelet, adding an aesthetic appearance to it.
- the bracelet is rigid in its part adjacent to the watch because it is surrounded above said profiled insert.
- the projecting part of said support part has, in section, a trapezoidal shape the lower face of which is horizontal.
- said projecting part is offset downward relative to the fixing lug intended to be disposed in the orifice of the housing.
- the profiled insert consists of a lower strand and an upper strand.
- the lower strand of the loop forming the profiled insert has a face inclined downwards like the upper face of the projecting part of the support piece, the upper strand is horizontal.
- the lower face of the loop intended to rest against the lower face of the projecting part is horizontal up to an inflection point P where the lower strand of the loop joins the upper strand and is applied against it over the entire length of the projecting part.
- the bracelet and the profiled insert are fixed to the projecting part of the support piece by means of fixing screws which cooperate with threaded orifices located in said part.
- the wristwatch essentially consists of a case 1 and a strap 2. On each side of the case 1 is made an orifice 3 intended to receive a part of the support piece 4. This is itself formed by 'a part 5 remaining outside the housing and a fixing lug 6 inside the housing 1. Sectional view, Figures 3 and 4, said part 5 is offset downward relative to the part of fixing 6. Thus the profiled support 5 projects beyond the side wall 7 of the housing 1.
- the fixing lug 6 is fixed to the housing 1 by means of two fixing screws 8.
- the end of the projecting part 5 has part of its upper side inclined downwards.
- the end of the bracelet 2 is wound on a profiled insert 9 which has the shape general of a loop.
- the projecting part 5 of said support piece 4 has in section, Figures 3 and 4, a trapezoidal shape visible particularly in Figure 3 whose lower face 10 is horizontal. Said part 5 is provided with threaded orifices 11 provided for fixing screws 12.
- the profiled insert 9, intended to cover said part 5 of said support piece 4 also has, by construction, the general shape of said part 5. It can be seen more precisely in FIG. 4 that the upper face 13 of the loop which constitutes the insert 9 is inclined substantially identically to the inclination of the part 5 remaining outside the housing 1 of said support piece 4, this inclined face projecting from said support piece 4 while its lower face 14 intended to apply against the horizontal lower face 10 of the projecting part 5 of the support piece is also horizontal up to an inflection point P where the lower strand 15 of the loop joins the upper strand 16 and is applied against it over the entire length of the projecting part 5.
- said insert 9 advantageously consists of a single rigid strip which goes around said part 5 while forming the loop.
- the bracelet 2, thus wound around its insert 9, is fixed to the support piece 4 by means of fixing screws 12.
- FIG. 2 shows the different parts necessary to attach the strap to the watch and illustrates the mounting of this attachment.
- the lower cover 17 of the housing 1 is removed.
- the fixing lug 6 of the support piece 4 is introduced into the orifice 3 of the housing 1. It is then fixed to the housing 1 by means of the two fixing screws 8. Once this fixing has been carried out, the cover 17 is replaced. by simple pressure of the finger or by means of fixing screws not shown in the appended figures.
- the bracelet 2 containing the profiled insert 9 is engaged on said projecting part 5; then it is fixed to it by the fixing screws 12 which cooperate with the threaded orifices 11.
- the screws 12 allow the lower strand 15 of the insert 9 to be clamped against the lower face 10 of said part 5, making the insert 9 rigid with respect to said support piece 4.
