Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of bracelets and cases, intended to be worn on the wrist and capable of cooperating with an accessory intended to be removably attached to the housing for example a watch case.
  • the object of the present invention is to remedy these disadvantages by obtaining a reliable fixing on the case.
  • the subject of the present invention is a set of bracelet and case intended to be worn on the wrist, and a decorative element intended to come cover at least partially a housing.
  • the bracelet and case assembly according to the invention is intended to be worn on the wrist, the bracelet being fixed so removable by its respective ends cooperating with portions of connection of the housing.
  • At least one of the connection portions includes at least one hole adapted to receive a portion for hanging a decorative element, the corresponding end of the bracelet protruding into the hole to lock in place said decorative element. This provides reliable attachment of the element decorative on the case.
  • the bracelet includes a body ending in two ends fixed to the housing, each end comprising a head connecting to the body by a intermediate portion, said head being capable of cooperating with a view to fixing the bracelet, with a groove provided in the portion of connection of the housing, two lips of the groove being in contact with the intermediate portion of the bracelet.
  • the bracelet body can include, for example, two parts equipped with a length adjustment, or even a single part made of material expandable.
  • the bore is in communication with the groove so that the head of the bracelet protrudes into the hole in blocking in place the decorative element introduced into said bore and shape consistent with that of the piercing and the head of the bracelet.
  • the throat of the case is closed on one side of said case and open on the other side of said case, the bracelet attaching to the case by a movement transverse engaging his head in the open side of the housing groove and the intermediate portion between the lips of said groove.
  • the head of the bracelet is semi-circular in shape and projects from one edge of the drilling.
  • the drilling can be through or not through.
  • the accessory according to the invention is intended to cover at least partially a case worn on the wrist, provided on one side in contact with the housing of projecting hooking means.
  • the attachment means comprise at least at their lower end a protrusion protruding on at least one edge of said end lower, and intended to be fixed to the housing by a locking means.
  • the accessory includes two hooks, one side of which is provided with a longitudinal groove, the hooking means being capable of making protruding into said groove.
  • the decorative element can thus be fixed to a watch case.
  • the attachment of the accessory to the housing is discreet, reliable and efficient and the results obtained are regular.
  • the housing of watch 1 includes a base 2 supporting a circular dial 3 and provided with needles 4.
  • the base 2 comprises two fixing portions 5, one on each side of the dial 3.
  • Each fixing portion 5 comprises a groove 6 open at a first end 6a and closed at the second end 6b.
  • the groove 6 comprises two lips 7 which partially close said groove 6.
  • On top of each portion fixing 5 is provided a hole 8 in communication with the groove 6.
  • several holes could be provided in each fixing portion 5, or alternatively, at least one bore open laterally on an edge of the fixing portion 5.
  • Bracelet 9 for example made of material elastomer, comprises an end 10 provided with a head 11 in the form semi-circular and connecting to the body 12 of the bracelet 9 by a intermediate portion 13.
  • the intermediate portion 13 is thick weaker than the head 11.
  • the decorative element 14 of which only a part is represented in Figures 3 and 4 includes an upper part 15 to object decorative, fun, educational, etc., and a lower part 16 for attachment to the housing 1.
  • the attachment portion 16 is projecting downwards relative to the upper part 15 and is of suitable shape to enter the hole 8.
  • the hooking part 16 is section substantially rectangular with a flat surface 17 on one side and the other side a hollow face 18 which includes a groove longitudinal 19 with an arcuate section similar in shape to the groove 6 of the housing 1.
  • the element is brought decorative 14 above the housing 1.
  • We descend the decorative element 14 which causes the attachment portion 16 to enter the hole 8 and pushes said hooking portion 16 into the bore 8 until that the groove 19 aligns with the groove 6 of the fixing portion 5 case 1.
  • the assembly is thus obtained as shown in FIG. 4.
  • the head 11 of the bracelet 9 projects into the bore 8 and constitutes a locking means of the decorative element 14 relative to the housing 1.
  • the lower end 20 of the attachment portion 16 of the element decorative 14 forms with respect to the groove 19 a lateral projection retained by the head 11 of the bracelet 9.
  • Disassembly is carried out in the reverse order of assembly. We first remove bracelet 9 by lateral sliding and then remove it the decorative element 14 by an upward movement.
  • the element decorative 14 can be attached to all types of watches, watches toys, dummy watches etc. .
  • the decorative element generally leaves visible the dial of the case but, in variant embodiments, can cover it permanently or by means of a hinged lid.
  • a decorative accessory is obtained which can be fixed easily and reliably and can also be easily removed from a wrist case.
