Abstract

The ring is composed of three circular arc shaped parts articulated together so as to permit their mutual pivoting in the plane of the ring. The first part (1) extends over an arc of approximately 270 DEG and each of the other two parts extends over an arc of approximately 45 DEG , thereby constituting a complete ring. Male (9) female (10) fastener elements make it possible to close the ring between the first part (1) and the third part (10). In order to open the ring, its suffices to push the articulation (7) between the second and third parts (4, 5) of the ring inwards against the elastic force exerted by the first part (1). The ring is closed by engaging the male fastener element (9) in the female element (10) while displacing the articulation (7) outwards, also against the elastic force of the first part (1). Once the ring has been closed, it is impossible to make it open by means of an outwardly directed force. <IMAGE>

Description

La présente invention concerne un anneau ouvrable muni d'un fermoir tel qu'il peut être utilisé, par exemple, comme porte-clés, comme objet de bijouterie ou comme anneau de liaison pour applications techniques.The present invention relates to an openable ring provided with a clasp such that it can be used, for example, as a key ring, as a piece of jewelry or as a connecting ring for technical applications.

Les anneaux ouvrables connus jusqu'à présent présentent tous les inconvénients d'être soit difficiles à ouvrir et à fermer, nécessitant parfois même un outil, de ne pas offrir une sécurité suffisante contre une ouverture involontaire ou de ne pas avoir une forme d'ensemble esthétique et pratique.The working rings known up to now have all the disadvantages of being either difficult to open and close, sometimes even requiring a tool, of not offering sufficient security against an involuntary opening or of not having an overall shape. aesthetic and practical.

La présente invention vise à fournir un anneau pouvant être ouvert et fermé très facilement, sans outil, par simple pression ou traction à un certain endroit de son pourtour, tout en offrant une très grande sécurité contre une ouverture intempestive. D'autre part, l'invention a pour but de fournir un anneau lisse, ne présentant pas de parties risquant de s'accrocher et d'affecter la simplicité esthétique de la forme annulaire.The present invention aims to provide a ring that can be opened and closed very easily, without tools, by simple pressure or traction at a certain location around its periphery, while offering very high security against inadvertent opening. On the other hand, the object of the invention is to provide a smooth ring, having no parts liable to catch on and to affect the aesthetic simplicity of the annular shape.

A cet effet, l'anneau selon l'invention comporte une première partie d'anneau s'étendant, entre ses extrémités, sur un angle de 180° à 300°, une deuxième et une troisième partie d'anneau s'étendant chacune sur un angle de 30° à 150° entre leurs extrémités respectives, de manière à constituer, à l'état fermé, un anneau complet, une première extrémité de ladite première partie et une première extrémité de ladite deuxième partie d'anneau comprenant une première articulation, la seconde extrémité de ladite deuxième partie d'anneau et une première extrémité de ladite troisième partie d'anneau comprenant une seconde articulation, lesdites articulations permettant un pivotement dans le plan de l'anneau, et les secondes extrémités desdites première et troisième parties d'anneau comportant des éléments de fermoir mâle et femelle agencés de façon à permettre un désengagement de ces éléments et ainsi une ouverture de l'anneau lorsque l'on déplace ladite seconde articulation vers l'intérieur de l'anneau contre la force élastique de ladite première partie d'anneau, et de façon à ne pas permettre un désengagement de ces éléments lorsque l'on exerce, sur l'anneau fermé, une force dirigée vers l'extérieur de celui-ci.To this end, the ring according to the invention comprises a first ring part extending, between its ends, at an angle of 180 ° to 300 °, a second and a third ring part each extending over an angle of 30 ° to 150 ° between their respective ends, so as to constitute, in the closed state, a complete ring, a first end of said first part and a first end of said second ring part comprising a first articulation , the second end of said second ring part and a first end of said third ring part comprising a second articulation, said articulations allowing pivoting in the plane of the ring, and the second ends of said first and third parts d ring comprising male and female clasp elements arranged so as to allow disengagement of these elements and thus an opening of the ring when displaces said second articulation towards the inside of the ring against the elastic force of said first ring part, and so as not to allow disengagement of these elements when a force is exerted on the closed ring directed outward from it.

L'invention a également pour objet l'utilisation d'un tel anneau comme porte-clés, tout en n'étant pas limitée à cette utilisation particulière.The invention also relates to the use of such a ring as a key ring, while not being limited to this particular use.

L'invention sera mieux comprise à la lumière de la description donnée ci-après d'un exemple de réalisation illustré dans le dessin annexé, dans lequel:

  • La Fig. 1 montre un anneau selon l'invention à l'état fermé,
  • La Fig. 2 montre l'anneau de la Fig. 1 dans un état intermédiaire entre l'ouverture complète et la fermeture, et
  • La Fig. 3 montre le même anneau complètement ouvert.
The invention will be better understood in the light of the description given below of an exemplary embodiment illustrated in the appended drawing, in which:
  • Fig. 1 shows a ring according to the invention in the closed state,
  • Fig. 2 shows the ring of FIG. 1 in an intermediate state between complete opening and closing, and
  • Fig. 3 shows the same ring fully open.

L'anneau représenté aux Figures 1 à 3 comporte une première partie d'anneau 1 qui s'étend sur environ 270° entre ses extrémités 2 et 3, le dessin ne montrant que les portions proches de ces extrémités. Une deuxième et une troisième partie d'anneau en forme de segments, désignées respectivement par 4 et 5, s'étendent chacune sur environ 45° et sont articulées en 6 et 7 de façon à pouvoir pivoter autour de pivots correspondants.The ring shown in Figures 1 to 3 comprises a first ring portion 1 which extends over approximately 270 ° between its ends 2 and 3, the drawing showing only the portions close to these ends. A second and a third ring portion in the form of segments, designated respectively by 4 and 5, each extend over approximately 45 ° and are articulated at 6 and 7 so as to be able to pivot around corresponding pivots.

Comme le montre la Fig. 2, l'extrémité 8 de la partie d'anneau 5 est munie d'une protubérance courbée 9, en forme de crochet, agencée pour pouvoir s'engager dans une creusure correspondante 10 pratiquée dans l'extrémité libre 3 de la partie 1. A cet effet, la protubérance 9 et la creusure 10 ont des sections transversales similaires, par exemple de forme circulaire ou rectangulaire, et ont le même rayon de courbure et un même centre de courbure 11. Cette configuration permet le désengagement et l'engagement de ces éléments mâle 9 et femelle 10 par un mouvement de rotation dans le plan de l'anneau autour d'un axe passant par 11, perpendiculairement à ce plan. Il est à noter que seul ce mouvement de rotation permet l'engagement et le désengagement mentionnés. Le centre de courbure 11 des éléments 9 et 10 et, par conséquent, l'axe autour duquel le mouvement de rotation peut s'effectuer, se trouve de préférence dans le plan de la surface de contact plane représentée dans le cas des extrémités 3 et 8 selon le présent exemple, et il est situé à proximité du bord intérieur de ces extrémités ou sur celui-ci. Toutefois, d'autres configurations de la surface de contact des extrémités 3 et 8 sont possibles ainsi que d'autres formes d'éléments mâle et femelle du fermoir. Ces éléments doivent cependant satisfaire à la condition que seul un mouvement de la partie 5 vers l'intérieur de l'anneau soit possible lorsque les extrémités 3 et 8 viennent ou sont en contact.As shown in Fig. 2, the end 8 of the ring part 5 is provided with a curved protuberance 9, in the form of a hook, arranged so as to be able to engage in a corresponding recess 10 formed in the free end 3 of the part 1. To this end, the protuberance 9 and the recess 10 have similar cross sections, for example of circular or rectangular shape, and have the same radius of curvature and the same center of curvature 11. This configuration allows the disengagement and the engagement of these male 9 and female 10 elements by a rotational movement in the plane of the ring around an axis passing through 11, perpendicular to this plane. It should be noted that only this rotational movement allows the mentioned engagement and disengagement. The center of curvature 11 of the elements 9 and 10 and, consequently, the axis around which the rotational movement can take place, is preferably in the plane of the planar contact surface shown in the case of the ends 3 and 8 according to this example, and it is located near or on the inside edge of these ends. However, other configurations of the contact surface of the ends 3 and 8 are possible as well as other forms of male and female elements of the clasp. These elements must however satisfy the condition that only a movement of the part 5 towards the inside of the ring is possible when the ends 3 and 8 come or are in contact.

L'ouverture de l'anneau à partir de la position fermée de la Fig. 1 est effectuée par une pression sur l'articulation au niveau du pivot 7 dans le sens de la flèche F1. Le déplacement du pivot 7 dans le sens radial de l'anneau provoque un pivotement des parties 4 et 5 autour, respectivement, du pivot 6 et du centre de courbure 11 jusqu'au dégagement de la protubérance 9. De façon similaire, lors de la fermeture de l'anneau, la protubérance 9 est engagée dans la creusure 10 et le pivot 7 est poussé ou tiré vers l'extérieur de l'anneau dans le sens radial de celui-ci, comme indiqué par la flèche F2 de la Fig. 2. Le déplacement du pivot 7 dans la direction radiale de l'anneau nécessite, dans les deux sens de déplacement, c'est-à-dire vers l'intérieur de l'anneau pour l'ouverture selon la flèche F1 ou dans le sens de la flèche F2 jusqu'à la position fermée de la Fig. 1, un écartement des extrémités 2 et 3 de la première partie d'anneau 1. Cette partie, réalisée par exemple en laiton comme le reste de l'anneau, présente de par sa forme et le matériau utilisé une élasticité qui peut être adaptée à la force souhaitée nécessaire pour ouvrir ou fermer l'anneau.The opening of the ring from the closed position of FIG. 1 is carried out by pressing the articulation at the pivot 7 in the direction of the arrow F1. The displacement of the pivot 7 in the radial direction of the ring causes the parts 4 and 5 to pivot around, respectively, the pivot 6 and the center of curvature 11 until the protuberance 9 is released. Similarly, when closing of the ring, the protuberance 9 is engaged in the recess 10 and the pivot 7 is pushed or pulled towards the outside of the ring in the radial direction thereof, as indicated by the arrow F2 in FIG. 2. The movement of the pivot 7 in the radial direction of the ring requires, in both directions of movement, that is to say towards the inside of the ring for opening according to arrow F1 or in the direction of arrow F2 to the closed position of FIG. 1, a separation of the ends 2 and 3 of the first ring part 1. This part, made for example of brass like the rest of the ring, has an elasticity which can be adapted to its shape and the material used. the desired force required to open or close the ring.

La Fig. 3 montre l'anneau dans une position totalement ouverte, permettant, par exemple, l'enfilement ou l'enlèvement d'objets qui comportent une ouverture adéquate, tels que des clés.Fig. 3 shows the ring in a fully open position, allowing, for example, the threading or removal of objects which have an adequate opening, such as keys.

Différentes formes de réalisation de l'anneau avec fermoir qui vient d'être décrit, peuvent être envisagées dans le cadre de l'invention. Il est à noter qu'à l'état fermé de l'anneau, aucune partie de fermoir ne dépasse le contour de l'anneau et que les articulations au niveau des pivots 6 et 7 peuvent, bien entendu, être réalisées de façon que l'anneau présente une forme simple et lisse telle qu'elle est généralement souhaitée.Different embodiments of the ring with clasp which has just been described, can be envisaged in the context of the invention. It should be noted that in the closed state of the ring, no part of the clasp protrudes beyond the contour of the ring and that the articulations at the level of the pivots 6 and 7 can, of course, be produced so that the he ring has a simple and smooth shape as it is generally desired.
