Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for attaching a bracelet to a watch case. More and more users of a watch want to be able to modify the appearance of his watch by changing the strap for certain occasions.
- the object of the present invention is to satisfy this trend by making a device for attaching the strap to the watch case which allows interchangeability of the bracelet which can be done by the user easily and quickly.
- the object of the present invention also lies in the fact of make it possible for the user himself to fix bracelets on his watch different materials, metal, leather, synthetic or other.
- the present invention relates to a device for attaching a bracelet to a watch case which is distinguished by the characteristics set out in the claim 1.
- the attached drawing illustrates schematically and by way of example a shape of execution of the device for attaching a bracelet to a watch case according to the invention.
- Figure 1 illustrates a watch case equipped with the fixing device according to the invention, coupled to connecting parts that comprise the ends of the bracelet.
- Figure 2 is a partial section through line A-A of Figure 1 along a plane parallel to the bottom of the watch case.
- Figure 3 is a section through the same line A-A in Figure 1 but in a plane perpendicular to the bottom of the watch case.
- the device for attaching a bracelet to a illustrated watch case has a hinge 1 secured to the watch case 2, replacing in some way so the usual horns, and a fixing element 3 intended to be fixed on the end of a bracelet to be coupled to the watch case 2.
- Each hinge 1 has a transverse through passage having three parts, a small diameter part 4 leading to one of its edges lateral, a middle part 5 of larger diameter and a part of large diameter 6, provided with a thread 7, leading to the other lateral edge of the hinge 1.
- pivots 8, 9 comprising a central part with a diameter corresponding to the diameter of the middle part 5 of the through passage of the hinge 1.
- Each pivot has an internal end of smaller diameter introduced into a coil spring 10 also housed in the transverse passage 4, 5, 6 and tending to separate the pivots 8, 9 one of the other.
- a threaded sleeve 11 is screwed into the thread 7 and has a hole terminal 12 of the same diameter as the small diameter part 4 of the passage transverse 4, 5, 6 of the hinge 1 opening into a housing 13 having a diameter corresponding to that of the middle part of the transverse passage 4, 5, 6. In this housing 13 slides the middle part of the pivot 9.
- pivots 8, 9 slide transversely in hinge 1 and are subjected to the action of spring 10 which tends to separate them one of the other.
- the external end parts of the pivot 8, 9 emerge in faces side of the hinge 1 and the pivots 8, 9 are retained by their shoulder 12 coming in abutment against the hinge 1 respectively the socket 11 screwed into the hinge 1 as shown in figure 3.
- the fixing element 3 can be constituted by the last link of a metallic bracelet or by a piece integrated into the end of a leather bracelet.
- this element 1 comprises a tenon provided with a bore 14.
- This post is intended to be attached to the end of a metal bracelet using a pin passing through the hole 14.
- This element 1 still has two tabs 15 separated by a recess 16 intended to receive the hinge 1 of the box shows.
- These legs 15 each have a recess 17 opening onto their external lateral faces, recess 17 extended by a coaxial passage 18 leading to the internal edge of these legs 15.
- End pieces 19 are driven into the recesses 16 of the legs. These end pieces comprise a housing 20 in which a counter-pivot 21 slides, possibly subjected to the action of a spring tending to move it away from the axis longitudinal of the bracelet. An orifice 22 of smaller dimension than the housing 19 extends it and leads to the free face of the nozzle 18.
- the fixing device also comprises an elastic clamp 24 whose branches are provided with lugs 25.
- the user takes the clamp 23 and introduces the pins 24 of the elastic branches into the orifices 22 of the end pieces 19.
- the branches of the pliers By bringing the branches of the pliers closer the user pushes the counter-pivots 21 which retracts the pivots 8, 9 in the hinge 1 (see FIG. 2).
- the connecting element 3 Pulling the pliers in the axis of the bracelet, the connecting element 3 is separated from the hinge 1 and the strap is detached from watch case 2.
- the user presents the element link 3 above the hinge 1, the grooves 23 engaged on the pushers 8, 9 leaving the hinge 1.
- the user then forces the fastening element 3 onto the hinge, the inclined planes of grooves 23 cause pushers 8, 9 to retract moment when the passages 17 are opposite these pushers 8, 9 and that these enter these passages 18 under the action of the spring 10. The bracelet is thus again secured to the watch case.
- this fixing device the user can use a simple clamp change his watch strap.
