Abstract

The end (or last link) of the strap (20) has a protuberance (21) with two pegs (22,23) projecting from opposite sides on a common axis (27) parallel to the edge (16) of the wrist-watch case (10). When the protuberance is pushed into a recess (11) in the end of the case, both pegs spring into a groove (13), while a threshold (14) across the entrance to the recess engages in a matching slot (24) in the underside of the protuberance behind the two pegs.

Description

La présente invention a pour objet un dispositif de fixation et d'interchangeabilité d'un premier élément à un se-cond élément, selon le préambule de la revendication 1, une application privilégiée de ce dispositif étant la fixation d'un bracelet à une boîte de montre.The present invention relates to a device for fixing and interchangeability of a first element to a second element, according to the preamble of claim 1, a preferred application of this device being the attachment of a bracelet to a box of watch.

Les dispositifs du genre précité existent aujourd'hui dans une quantité d'exécutions et de variantes aussi nombreuses que diverses. Cependant, s'ils peuvent en général répondre à l'un ou l'autre des caractères tels que polyvalence d'application, rapidité de fixation ou d'attache et de libération, fiabilité de la fermeture et, enfin, simplicité de fabrication, aucun d'entre eux ne parvient à en faire la synthèse, la véritable réunion de toutes ces caractéristiques dans un même dispositif étant très délicate et tout autre qu'évidente.Devices of the aforementioned kind exist today in a quantity of executions and variants as numerous as they are diverse. However, if they can generally respond to one or other of the characteristics such as versatility of application, speed of fixing or attachment and release, reliability of the closure and, finally, simplicity of manufacture, none of them does not manage to synthesize them, the true union of all these characteristics in the same device being very delicate and quite other than obvious.

Le but de la présente invention est de proposer un disposif réalisant cette alliance. Ce but est atteint grâce aux moyens définis dans la revendication indépendante 1, les revendications dépendantes définissant des moyens particuliers et préférentiels de construction du dispositif.The purpose of the present invention is to provide a device achieving this alliance. This object is achieved thanks to the means defined in independent claim 1, the dependent claims defining particular and preferential means of construction of the device.

A titre d'exemple, on va décrire ci-après un exemple d'exécution du dispositif selon l'invention ainsi qu'une variante de celui-ci, à l'appui du dessin annexé sur lequel:

  • les Figures 1A et 1B sont des vues en perspective respectivement d'une boîte de montre et d'un bracelet, plus précisément de l'extrémité de ce bracelet, ces deux éléments étant séparés et présentant chacun une partie du dispositif de fixation,
  • la Figure 1C est une coupe de la boîte de montre selon le plan I C,
  • la figure 1D montre, en perspective, l'extrémité d'un bracelet comportant une variante d'un élément de fixation du dispositif,
  • La figure 1E est une coupe identique à celle de la figure 1C, montrant en outre une vue de bout (selon la flèche F) de la partie du bracelet destinée à être fixée a la boîte de montre, partie placée en regard d'un logement pratiqué dans ladite boîte,
  • la Figure 2 montre, en perspective, le mode de fixation du bracelet à la montre et la position initiale de ce dernier lors de cette fixation,
  • la Figure 3 représente ces deux éléments, boîte de montre et bracelet, fixés l'un à l'autre, dans leur position d'utilisation,
  • les Figures 4A, 4B, 5 et 6 sont des vues en perspective représentant une variante d'exécution du dispositif de fixation et sont en tout point analogues aux figures 1A, 1B, 2 et 3.
By way of example, an embodiment of the device according to the invention will be described below as well as a variant of it, based on the appended drawing in which:
  • FIGS. 1A and 1B are perspective views respectively of a watch case and a bracelet, more precisely of the end of this bracelet, these two elements being separated and each having a part of the fixing device,
  • FIG. 1C is a section of the watch case according to the plan IC,
  • FIG. 1D shows, in perspective, the end of a bracelet comprising a variant of a fastening element of the device,
  • Figure 1E is a section identical to that of Figure 1C, further showing an end view (according to arrow F) of the part of the strap intended to be fixed to the watch case, part placed opposite a housing practiced in said box,
  • FIG. 2 shows, in perspective, the method of fixing the bracelet to the watch and the initial position of the latter during this fixing,
  • FIG. 3 represents these two elements, watch case and bracelet, fixed to each other, in their position of use,
  • FIGS. 4A, 4B, 5 and 6 are perspective views showing an alternative embodiment of the fixing device and are completely similar to FIGS. 1A, 1B, 2 and 3.

Sur la figure 1B, on aperçoit un premier élément, savoir, soit l'extrémité d'un bracelet 20, soit le maillon extrême d'un bracelet 20, pourvu d'une protubérance 21. Cette dernière comporte, de part et d'autre, deux chevilles 22,23, formées, par exemple, par les parties apparentes d'un axe 27 monté serré dans un alésage pratiqué dans ladite protubérance (l'alésage lui-même n'étant pas référencé). Afin d'obtenir une fixation plus sûre, cet axe peut être avantageusement une barette 27', connue en tant que telle de l'homme du métier (voir figure 1D), dont les extrémités visibles 28,29 laissent apparaître des poussoirs ou pivots 22',23' sur ressorts (logés dans dans l'axe 27'). Enfin, la face inférieure (non référencée) de la protubérance présente une rainure ou saignée de maintien 24.In FIG. 1B, a first element can be seen, namely, either the end of a bracelet 20, or the end link of a bracelet 20, provided with a protuberance 21. The latter comprises, on either side , two pins 22,23, formed, for example, by the visible parts of a pin 27 mounted tight in a bore formed in said protuberance (the bore itself not being referenced). In order to obtain a more secure fixing, this axis can advantageously be a bar 27 ′, known as such to a person skilled in the art (see FIG. 1D), the visible ends of which 28,29 reveal pushers or pivots 22 ', 23' on springs (housed in the axis 27 '). Finally, the underside (not referenced) of the protuberance has a groove or retaining groove 24.

La figure 1A montre un second élément, en l'occurrence une boîte de montre 10. En lieu et place de cornes, cette boîte présente deux encoches ou évidements 11, 11A, situés en face l'un de l'autre et identiques entre eux (aussi se réfèrera-t-on uniquement, par la suite, à l'encoche 11). Les formes générales de l'encoche 11 de la boîte 10 et de la protubérance 21 du bracelet 20 sont complémentaires, celle-ci étant destinée à être logée dans celle-la. Selon l'exemple décrit, protubérance 21 et encoche 11 montrent des parties arrondies, respectivement 25 et 15, de forme équivalente. L'encoche 11 est revidée, de sorte à former, selon l'exemple, un épaulement (voir figure 1C), la face 13 de cet épaulement étant parallèle à la face 12 de l'encoche 11. A sa partie inférieure, l'encoche 11 laisse subsister une lamelle de maintien 14. Bien entendu, la distance entre les extrémités des chevilles 22 et 23 est légèrement inférieure à celle séparant la face gauche et la face droite de l'épaulement 13 (figure 1C). De plus, la longueur de l'encoche entre la partie extrême de l'arrondi 15 et le coté intérieur (non référencé), c'est-à-dire opposé à la face 16, de la lamelle 14 ainsi que la distance entre les faces 13 et 12 sont définies de telle sorte que l'opération de fixation (et de l'opération inverse, c'est-à-dire de libération) telle qu'exposée ci-dessous soit possible.FIG. 1A shows a second element, in this case a watch box 10. In place of horns, this box has two notches or recesses 11, 11A, located opposite one another and identical to each other (also we will only refer to notch 11 below). The general shapes of the notch 11 of the box 10 and of the protuberance 21 of the bracelet 20 are complementary, the latter being intended to be housed therein. According to the example described, protuberance 21 and notch 11 show rounded parts, respectively 25 and 15, of equivalent shape. The notch 11 is rewound, so as to form, according to the example, a shoulder (see FIG. 1C), the face 13 of this shoulder being parallel to the face 12 of the notch 11. At its lower part, the notch 11 leaves a retaining strip 14. Of course, the distance between the ends of the pins 22 and 23 is slightly less than that separating the left face and the right face of the shoulder 13 (FIG. 1C). In addition, the length of the notch between the end part of the round 15 and the inner side (not referenced), that is to say opposite to the face 16, of the strip 14 as well as the distance between the faces 13 and 12 are defined such that the fixing operation (and the reverse operation, that is to say of release) as set out below is possible.

La figure 2 montre les deux éléments 10 et 20 en phase de fixation l'un à l'autre symbolisée par les flèches 30 et 31, ces deux éléments se présentant, lorsque cette phase est achevée, tels que représentés à la figure 3.FIG. 2 shows the two elements 10 and 20 in the phase of attachment to one another symbolized by the arrows 30 and 31, these two elements appearing, when this phase is completed, as shown in FIG. 3.

A la seule lecture des figures 2 et 3, on comprend aisément le mode de fixation. Dans un premier temps, la protubérance 21 du bracelet 20 est introduite dans l'encoche 11 formant logement, dans la position montrée à la figure 2, quasi perpendiculairement à la boîte 10, selon la flèche 30 (le plan (non référencé) de la partie extrême du bracelet pourvu de la protubérance se confondant très approximativement avec le plan de symétrie de la boîte de montre, c'est-à-dire du logement 11), la cheville 22 (ou partie 28 et poussoir 22') venant se placer dans l'épaulement 13, de sorte que l'autre cheville 23 (ou partie 29 et poussoir 23'), tout en imprimant, dans un deuxième temps, un mouvement de rotation au bracelet (flèche 31), puisse également prendre place dans l'épaulement 13. Dans un troisième temps, une fois que les chevilles 22,23 (parties 28,29, poussoirs 22'23') se trouvent dans l'épaulement 13 et que le pivotement est terminé, les plans médians ou de symétrie (non référencés) de la potubérance 21 et du logement 11 se confondant a nouveau progressivement, le bracelet est rabattu, selon la flèche 32 (figure 3). Lors de la phase terminale de cette opération de rabattement, la rainure 24 se positionne sur la lamelle 14, et les faces 16 et 26, respectivement de la boîte 10 et du bracelet 20, se trouvent en regard l'une de l'autre. Les deux éléments, bracelet 20 et boîte de montre 10 selon l'exemple, sont ainsi rendus solidaires l'un de l'autre grâce à ce dispositif dont les moyens permettent, comme on l'aura remarqué, un type d'emboîtement à baïonnette. La désolidarisation des deux éléments est obtenue très rapidement, en effectuant les mouvements inverses de ceux décrits plus haut, ce qui facilite sensiblement l'interchangeabilité des bracelets.By simply reading Figures 2 and 3, it is easy to understand the method of attachment. Firstly, the protuberance 21 of the bracelet 20 is introduced into the notch 11 forming housing, in the position shown in FIG. 2, almost perpendicular to the case 10, along arrow 30 (the plane (not referenced) of the end part of the bracelet provided with the protuberance merging very approximately with the plane of symmetry of the watch case, that is to say of the housing 11), the pin 22 (or part 28 and pusher 22 ') coming to be placed in the shoulder 13, so that the other pin 23 (or part 29 and push-button 23 ′), while at the same time imparting a rotational movement to the bracelet (arrow 31), can also take place in the shoulder 13. In a third step, once the ankles 22,23 (parts 28,29, pushers 22'23 ') are located in the shoulder 13 and that the pivoting is complete, the median or symmetry planes (not referenced) of the tubing 21 and of the housing 11 gradually merging again, the bracelet is folded down, according to arrow 32 (Figure 3). During the terminal phase of this folding operation, the groove 24 is positioned on the strip 14, and the faces 16 and 26, respectively of the case 10 and the bracelet 20, are located opposite one another. The two elements, bracelet 20 and watch case 10 according to the example, are thus made integral with one another thanks to this device whose means allow, as will have been noticed, a type of bayonet fitting . The separation of the two elements is obtained very quickly, by performing the opposite movements to those described above, which appreciably facilitates the interchangeability of the bracelets.

On comprend que l'opération de fixation est bien sûr analogue à celle venant d'être décrite, lorsque la protubérance 21 est pourvue de la barette 27'. A titre de précision, on a représenté à la figure 1E (coupe pratiquée à l'emplacement du logement 11 de la boîte de montre, identique à celle montrée à la figure 1C), en regard dudit logement, la protubérance 21 vue selon la flèche F (figure 1D), de sorte à mettre en apparence le positionnement approximatif (lignes pointillées) des parties 28,29 de la barette ainsi que des poussoirs 22',23', par rapport aux faces 12,13 du logement 11. Lorsque la protubérance est engagée dans le logement 11 pour y être fixée, chacun des poussoirs 22',23' prend appui sur l'épaulement 13 contre l'action de la force du ressort respectif, ce qui confère au dispositif une meilleure sécurité de fixation.It is understood that the fixing operation is of course similar to that just described, when the protrusion 21 is provided with the bar 27 '. For clarification, there is shown in Figure 1E (section made at the location of the housing 11 of the watch case, identical to that shown in Figure 1C), opposite said housing, the protrusion 21 seen according to the arrow F (figure 1D), so as to appear the approximate positioning (dotted lines) of the parts 28, 29 of the bar as well as the pushers 22 ', 23', relative to the faces 12, 13 of the housing 11. When the protuberance is engaged in the housing 11 to be fixed there, each of the pushers 22 ', 23' bears on the shoulder 13 against the action of the force of the respective spring, which gives the device a better fixing security.

Les figures 4A, 4B, 5 et 6 représentent une variante de l'exemple d'exécution venant d'être décrit. Selon cette variante, les moyens du dispositif permettant l'emboîtement à baïonnette sont ici inversés: la boîte de montre 30 présente, en lieu et place des cornes, deux protubérances 31 et 31A, chacune comportant un axe 37 et des chevilles 32,33 (éléments analogues aux éléments 27,22,23) et une rainure ou saignée 34, tandis que l'extrémité du bracelet 40 présente un logement 41 de forme complémentaire à la protubérance 31, logement relié, à sa partie inférieure, d'une lamelle 44 et pourvu, à l'instar de l'encoche 11 indiquée plus haut, d'un épaulement 43. La fixation s'obtient en appliquant le même processus que celui décrit plus haut et illustré, sur les figures 5 et 6, par les flèches 50 (introduction de la protubérance 31 dans le logement 41, c'est-à-dire des chevilles dans la partie revidée 43 de l'encoche 41, les deux éléments étant placés quasi' perpendiculairement l'un par rapport à l'autre et l'orientation de leurs plans étant, comme représenté à la figure 5, quasi orthogonale), puis 51 (pivotement) et enfin 52 (rabattement). Le processus inverse conduit, là aussi, à la libéralisation des deux éléments, lorsque l'on souhaite, par exemple, changer de bracelet.FIGS. 4A, 4B, 5 and 6 show a variant of the embodiment which has just been described. According to this variant, the means of the device allowing the bayonet fitting are here reversed: the watch case 30 has, in place of the horns, two protuberances 31 and 31A, each comprising an axis 37 and pins 32.33 ( elements similar to elements 27, 22, 23) and a groove or groove 34, while the end of the bracelet 40 has a housing 41 of shape complementary to the protuberance 31, housing connected, at its lower part, with a lamella 44 and provided, like the notch 11 indicated above, with a shoulder 43. The fixing is obtained by applying the same process as that described above and illustrated, in FIGS. 5 and 6, by the arrows 50 (introduction of the protuberance 31 into the housing 41, that is to say pegs in the recessed part 43 of the notch 41, the two elements being placed almost 'perpendicular to each other and the orientation of their plans being, as shown felt in Figure 5, almost orthogonal), then 51 (pivoting) and finally 52 (folding). Here too, the opposite process leads to the liberalization of the two elements, when one wishes, for example, to change the bracelet.

A l'instar de la variante décrite à l'appui de la figure 1D (barette 27' munie de poussoirs 22',23'), il va de soi que l'on peut avantageusement prévoir, en lieu et place de l'axe 37, une barette 37' (figure 4A), comportant des poussoirs 32', 33').Like the variant described in support of FIG. 1D (bar 27 'provided with pushers 22', 23 '), it goes without saying that one can advantageously provide, instead of axis 37, a bar 37 '(Figure 4A), comprising pushers 32', 33 ').

On comprend que l'application du dispositif n'est pas limitée à la liaison d'une boîte de montre a un bracelet, mais peut s'étendre, en particulier, à tout le domaine de la bijouterie.It is understood that the application of the device is not limited to the connection of a watch case to a bracelet, but can extend, in particular, to the entire field of jewelry.
