Abstract
Description
La présente invention se rapporte aux dispositifs de fixation d'un bracelet sur une boîte de montre, en particulier un bracelet métallique ou non métallique, en cuir ou caoutchouc par exemple.The present invention relates to fastening devices for a bracelet on a watch case, in particular a metal or non-metallic bracelet, made of leather or rubber, for example.
On connaît un dispositif de fixation de bracelet sur une boîte de montre, par exemple des documents WO 98/21630; WO 99/36838 et CH 614.589. Le document WO 98/21630 décrit un bracelet fixé conventionnement sur un élément intermédiaire qui lui vient s'emboîter entre les cornes de la boîte de montre et est fixé à celle-ci à l'aide d'une goupille. Malgré la présence de l'élément intermédiaire, le montage et le démontage du bracelet nécessitent l'utilisation d'un outil pour retirer ou chasser la goupille le reliant aux cornes de la boîte.A bracelet attachment device is known on a watch case, for example WO 98/21630; WO 99/36838 and CH 614.589. WO 98/21630 discloses a strap fixed conventionally on an intermediate element which comes to fit between the horns of the watch case and is fixed thereto by means of a pin. Despite the presence of the intermediate element, the assembly and disassembly of the bracelet require the use of a tool to remove or chase the pin connecting it to the horns of the box.
L'inconvénient d'une telle fixation provient de la nécessité d'avoir recours à un outil pour le changement de bracelet et également du fait que la goupille de fixation du bracelet sur l'élément intermédiaire ainsi que celle fixant cet élément intermédiaire sur les cornes de la boite de montre restent visibles et nuisent à l'esthétique de la pièce d'horlogerie.The disadvantage of such a fixation comes from the need to have recourse to a tool for the change of bracelet and also because the fixing pin of the bracelet on the intermediate element as well as that fixing this intermediate element on the horns of the watch case remain visible and detract from the aesthetics of the timepiece.
Le document WO 99/36838 décrit un dispositif de fixation rapide et sans outil d'un bracelet sur une boîte de montre. Ce dispositif comporte un premier élément intermédiaire monté sur la boîte de montre et pouvant coulisser ou tourner par rapport à cette boîte de montre. Un second élément intermédiaire auquel est fixé le bracelet peut s'enclencher sur le premier élément intermédiaire lorsque celui-ci est dans une position de montage par rapport à la boîte de montre. En position de service normal de ce premier élément intermédiaire par rapport à la boîte de montre, le second élément intermédiaire est verrouillé en position accouplée au premier élément intermédiaire.WO 99/36838 discloses a quick and tool-free attachment of a bracelet on a watch case. This device comprises a first intermediate element mounted on the watch case and slidable or rotatable relative to this watch case. A second intermediate element to which is attached the bracelet can engage the first intermediate element when it is in a mounting position relative to the watch case. In the normal operating position of this first intermediate element with respect to the watch case, the second intermediate element is locked in position coupled to the first intermediate element.
Cette réalisation est complexe, ne se prête pas aisément pour la fixation de bracelets métalliques et n'interdit pas un désaccouplement des premier et second éléments intermédiaires involontaire.This embodiment is complex, does not lend itself easily to the fixing of metal bracelets and does not prohibit uncoupling of the first and second intermediate elements involuntary.
Le troisième document, le brevet CH 614.589, décrit une boîte de montre dont les cornes sont munies de gonds, présentant un évidement longitudinal ouvert en bout et sur la face inférieure du gond. Le bracelet est fixé à une barrette transversale dont la section présente la forme d'un cylindre tronqué permettant dans une position angulaire déterminée d'être introduite dans l'évidement du gond de la boîte de montre. Pour toutes les autres positions angulaires de cette barrette par rapport au gond, cette barrette est prisonnière du gond. Ici également, le bracelet peut se désolidariser de la boîte de montre par inadvertance.The third document, patent CH 614.589, describes a watch case whose horns are provided with hinges, having an open longitudinal recess at the end and on the underside of the hinge. The bracelet is attached to a transverse bar whose section has the shape of a truncated cylinder allowing in a given angular position to be introduced into the recess of the hinge of the watch case. For all the other angular positions of this bar relative to the hinge, this bar is trapped in the hinge. Here too, the bracelet can disassociate itself from the watch case inadvertently.
Enfin, le document US 3.908.243 décrit une montre bracelet comportant entre la boîte et le bracelet des éléments intermédiaires articulés sur les cornes de la boîte de montre. Les extrémités du bracelet comportent un élément comportant la partie mâle d'un accouplement venant se loger et se verrouiller en position de service dans l'élément intermédiaire.Finally, document US Pat. No. 3,908,243 describes a wristwatch comprising between the box and the bracelet intermediate elements articulated on the horns of the watch case. The ends of the bracelet comprise an element comprising the male part of a coupling which is housed and locked in the service position in the intermediate element.
Le but de la présente invention est de permettre une fixation rapide, fiable et sans outil d'un bracelet de n'importe quel type sur une boîte de montre tout en évitant une désolidarisation involontaire et intempestive du bracelet de la montre. Un but également de la présente invention est de réaliser un dispositif de fixation d'un bracelet sur une boîte de montre qui ne comporte aucun élément visible de mécanisme et qui ne nuise pas à l'esthétique de la pièce.The object of the present invention is to allow a quick, reliable and tool-free attachment of a bracelet of any type on a watch case while avoiding an involuntary and untimely separation of the wristband of the watch. Another object of the present invention is to provide a device for attaching a bracelet to a watch case which has no visible mechanism element and which does not detract from the aesthetics of the piece.
Un autre but est de permettre la vente de tous types de bracelets seuls, sous forme d'accessoires, que l'usager peut simplement monter lui-même sur sa boîte de montre sans outil, une sécurité évitant tout démontage involontaire.Another goal is to allow the sale of all types of bracelets alone, in the form of accessories, that the user can simply mount himself on his watch case without tools, a security avoiding any unintentional disassembly.

Le dispositif de fixation selon l'invention comporte un élément intermédiaire 1 sur lequel est fixée de façon conventionnelle l'extrémité d'un bracelet cuir ou métallique, cet élément intermédiaire étant conformé de manière à pouvoir être accouplé à la boîte de montre 2.The fixing device according to the invention comprises an
Dans l'exemple illustré, l'élément intermédiaire 1 est accouplé au dernier maillon 3 d'un bracelet métallique à l'aide d'une goupille par exemple dont les extrémités ne sont pas visibles de l'extérieur du maillon 3.In the illustrated example, the
La boîte de montre 1 est munie de cornes 4 qui présentent dans leurs faces qui se font face des rainures 5 débouchant sur la face inférieure 6 de ces cornes 4 mais ne débouchant pas sur la face supérieure de ces cornes 4. Les faces terminales 7 de la boîte 1 ou de sa carrure présentent, entre les cornes 4, un évidement 8 délimité vers le bas par une face de verrouillage inclinée 9.The
L'élément intermédiaire 1 est formé d'un bloc présentant d'une façon générale la forme de l'espace compris entre deux cornes 4 de la boîte 2. Sur ces faces latérales, cet élément intermédiaire 1 comporte des nervures 10 destinées à s'engager dans les rainures 5 des cornes 4 lorsqu'il est accouplé à la boîte 2.The
En position accouplée à la boîte 2, cet élément intermédiaire 1 occupe l'espace entre les cornes 4 et permet de donner à l'ensemble boîte-bracelet l'aspect esthétique désiré.In position coupled to the
Cet élément intermédiaire présente un évidement débouchant sur ses faces inférieures et sa face dirigée vers la face terminale de la boîte 2 dans lequel un volet de verrouillage 11 est monté pivotant autour d'une goupille 12 dont les extrémités sont logées dans des trous 13 que comporte l'élément intermédiaire 1.This intermediate element has a recess opening on its lower faces and its face facing the end face of the
Le volet de verrouillage 11 comporte un logement 14 dans lequel se trouve un ressort à boudin 15, entourant la portion centrale de la goupille d'articulation du volet de verrouillage 11 et dont les extrémités prennent appui, en position de service de l'élément intermédiaire 1, position pour laquelle il est accouplé aux cornes 4 de la boîte 2 l'une contre ledit volet et l'autre contre la face de verrouillage 9 de la boîte 2. Ce ressort 15 tend à appliquer contre la face de verrouillage 9 de la boîte 2 un bec de verrouillage 16 que comporte le volet 11.The
Ainsi lorsque l'élément intermédiaire 1 est engagé à fond entre les cornes 4 de la boîte 2, le bec de verrouillage 16 du volet 11 est appliqué contre la face de verrouillage 9 de la boîte 2 par le ressort 15 et cet élément intermédiaire 1 ne peut pas se séparer de façon intempestive ou involontaire de la boîte 2.Thus when the
Pour séparer l'élément intermédiaire de la boîte, et donc démonter le bracelet de cette boîte, éventuellement en vue d'un échange de bracelet, il faut que l'usager déplace le volet 11 en direction de la face terminale de la boîte 2 pour que le bec de verrouillage 16 soit retiré de la face de verrouillage 9 de la boîte. Ce n'est qu'après avoir actionné le volet 11 que l'élément intermédiaire 1 peut être séparé de la boîte 2.To separate the intermediate element from the box, and thus to disassemble the bracelet of this box, possibly with a view to a bracelet exchange, the user must move the
Comme on le voit, ce dispositif de fixation est très simple, robuste, facile à usiner. Il permet un accouplement et un désaccouplement du bracelet de la boîte de montre aisé et sans outil mais, du fait du verrouillage, interdit toute séparation intempestive ou involontaire de l'élément intermédiaire 1 de la boîte 2.As we see, this fastening device is very simple, robust, easy to machine. It allows coupling and uncoupling of the wristband of the watch case easy and without tools but, because of locking, prohibits inadvertent or inadvertent separation of the
De plus, aucun des organes du mécanisme d'accouplement et de verrouillage n'est visible du dessus ou de côté de la boite de montre ou du bracelet.In addition, none of the mechanisms of the coupling and locking mechanism is visible from above or from the side of the watch case or bracelet.
En pratique des bracelets de rechange peuvent être vendus accouplés à un élément intermédiaire 1 de manière à pouvoir, sans outil et très simplement, par l'usager lui-même procéder à l'échange de bracelet.In practice replacement wristbands can be sold coupled to an
Il est évident que ce dispositif peut être utilisé pour la fixation de tout type de bracelet métallique, non métallique, en cuir, matière plastique, caoutchouc, etc. Le bracelet quel qu'il soit est fixé de façon conventionnelle à l'élément intermédiaire décrit précédemment et peut être fixé de façon amovible à la boîte de montre.It is obvious that this device can be used for fixing any type of metal bracelet, non-metallic, leather, plastic, rubber, etc. Any bracelet is conventionally attached to the intermediate element described above and can be removably attached to the watch case.
