Le système de liaison entre deux éléments selon une vue générale de l'invention se caractérise en ce que lesdits éléments sont reliés entre eux par des moyens d'articulation constitués par au moins une rotule simple (4) interposée entre au moins deux éléments (1, 2), au moins l'un des deux comportant un siège sphérique interne (5) correspondant à la rotule (4), de manière à permettre le débattement relatif desdits éléments (1, 2) dans toutes les directions et par rapport à eux-mêmes.The connecting system between two elements according to a general view of the invention is characterized in that said elements are interconnected by means of articulation constituted by at least one simple ball joint (4) interposed between at least two elements (1 , 2), at least one of the two having an inner spherical seat (5) corresponding to the ball (4), so as to allow relative movement of said elements (1, 2) in all directions and relative to them -Same.
Comme le montrent particulièrement bien les figures 1 et 2, le siège sphérique de l'un des éléments (1) est constitué par deux empreintes concaves hémisphériques (5a, 5b) réalisées à leurs extrémités pour former deux demi-coques complémentaires (la, Ib) reliées entre elles, après insertion de la rotule (4) de l'autre élément (2), par des moyens d'assemblage.As is particularly shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the spherical seat of one of the elements (1) consists of two hemispherical concave impressions (5a, 5b) made at their ends to form two complementary half-shells (Ia, Ib). ) connected to each other, after insertion of the ball (4) of the other element (2), by means of assembly.
Les moyens d'assemblage des deux demi-coques (la, Ib) formant le siège (5a, 5b) sont constitués par des pions cylindriques (6, 7) réalisés sur le plan de joint de l'une des demi-coques (la) destinée à coopérer par emmanchement à force avec des trous borgnes (8, 9) correspondants, réalisés sur le plan de joint de l'autre demi-coque (Ib). Les moyens d'assemblage des demi-coques (la, Ib) formant le siège (5a, 5b) sont constitués par une colle adaptée aux matériaux des demi- coques.The assembly means of the two half-shells (la, Ib) forming the seat (5a, 5b) consist of cylindrical pins (6, 7) made on the joint plane of one of the half-shells (the ) intended to cooperate by press fitting with corresponding blind holes (8, 9) made on the joint plane of the other half-shell (Ib). The assembly means of the half-shells (la, Ib) forming the seat (5a, 5b) consist of an adhesive adapted to the half-shell materials.
Bien entendu, l'assemblage des deux demi-coques (la, Ib) peut être obtenu par soudure ou par tout autre moyen.Of course, the assembly of the two half-shells (la, Ib) can be obtained by welding or by any other means.
En fait le moyen sera choisi selon que les deux demi-coques formant un élément est en matière plastique ou en métal.In fact the means will be chosen according to whether the two half-shells forming an element is made of plastic or metal.
Selon l'exemple de réalisation représenté sur les figures 1 et 2, la liaison entre deux éléments successifs (1, 2) s'effectue par interposition d'une double rotule (4, 4) réalisées aux extrémités d'un même axe (10), chacune desdites rotules (4) étant destinée à coopérer librement avec des sièges correspondants (5, 11) réalisés aux extrémités respectives de deux éléments successifs (1, 2) à relier, formés chacun par deux demi-coques à assembler (la), (Ib - 2a, 2b).According to the exemplary embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the connection between two successive elements (1, 2) is effected by interposition of a double ball joint (4, 4) made at the ends of one and the same axis (10). ), each of said ball joints (4) being intended to cooperate freely with corresponding seats (5, 11) made at respective ends of two successive elements (1, 2) to be connected, each formed by two half-shells to be assembled (la) , (Ib - 2a, 2b).
En fait, un même élément (2) comporte à chacune de ses extrémités des sièges (5, 11) destinés à être reliés respectivement à deux autres éléments opposés (1, 3) par l'intermédiaire de deux double rotules (4-4) (voir figure 1).In fact, the same element (2) comprises at each of its ends seats (5, 11) intended to be respectively connected to two other opposite elements (1, 3) via two double ball joints (4-4). (see Figure 1).
C'est ainsi qu'une pluralité d'éléments identiques (1, 2) ou (3) sont reliés successivement de manière à former les maillons d'une chaîne, d'un collier, d'un bracelet, etc.Thus, a plurality of identical elements (1, 2) or (3) are connected successively so as to form the links of a chain, a necklace, a bracelet, etc.
Selon un autre exemple de réalisation représenté sur les figures 3 etAccording to another exemplary embodiment shown in FIGS.
4, entre les extrémités de deux éléments identiques (1, 3) formant des maillons d'une chaîne, est interposé un élément distinctif (12) constituant le boîtier d'une montre, lequel est réalisé en deux parties (12a, 12b) définissant entre elles un cadre, chacune de ces parties comportant à leurs extrémités opposées des empreintes hémisphériques (5a, lia - 5b, llb) destinées à former deux sièges (5), (11), de manière à relier ledit boîtier aux éléments formant maillons par l'intermédiaire de deux double rotules (4-4).4, between the ends of two identical elements (1, 3) forming links of a chain, is interposed a distinctive element (12) constituting the case of a watch, which is made in two parts (12a, 12b) defining between them a frame, each of these parts having at their ends opposing hemispherical impressions (5a, 11a-5b, 11b) for forming two seats (5), (11), so as to connect said housing to the link members via two double ball joints (4-4).
Selon un autre exemple d'application de l'invention, entre les extrémités de deux éléments identiques (1, 3), formant des maillons d'une chaîne, est interposé un élément distinctif (13) constituant un fermoir en deux parties (13A, 13B) à réunir en fermeture, chacune de ces parties étant formée de deux demi-coques définissant entre elles à une de leurs extrémités, un siège (11) ou (5) destiné à coopérer avec l'une des extrémités sphériques d'une double rotule (4-4), son autre extrémité sphérique étant en liaison articulée avec un élément (1) ou (3) formant maillon.According to another example of application of the invention, between the ends of two identical elements (1, 3), forming links of a chain, is interposed a distinctive element (13) constituting a clasp in two parts (13A, 13B) to be joined in closure, each of these parts being formed of two half-shells defining between them at one of their ends, a seat (11) or (5) intended to cooperate with one of the spherical ends of a double ball (4-4), its other spherical end being in articulated connection with a member (1) or (3) forming a link.
Bien entendu, on ne sortirait pas du cadre de l'invention si aux extrémités des deux parties du fermoir, comprenait non pas une sphère de liaison comme cela est illustré à la figure 5 mais deux anneaux de retenue tel que cela est illustré à la figure 13.Of course, it would not be outside the scope of the invention if at the ends of the two parts of the clasp, not included a connecting sphere as shown in Figure 5 but two retaining rings as shown in FIG. 13.
Selon une variante d'application représentée sur les figures 6, 7 et 8, concernant respectivement une bague ou un bracelet, la liaison entre deux éléments (14, 15) s'effectue par une double rotule (4A-4A) réalisée solidairement aux extrémités d'un élément de décor (14), lequel est destiné à être inséré librement entre les extrémités de l'autre élément (15), constituant en soi notamment une bague ou un bracelet rigide ouvert, réalisé en deux parties (15a, 15b) à réunir et formant à leurs extrémités des sièges (5, 11), destinés à la double rotule (4A-4A) de l'élément de décor (14), de manière à ce que celui-ci puisse pivoter librement et donc être réversible.According to an alternative application shown in FIGS. 6, 7 and 8, respectively concerning a ring or a bracelet, the connection between two elements (14, 15) is effected by a double ball joint (4A-4A) integrally formed at the ends. a decorative element (14), which is intended to be inserted freely between the ends of the other element (15), constituting in itself in particular a ring or an open rigid bracelet, made in two parts (15a, 15b) to gather and forming at their ends seats (5, 11) for the double ball (4A-4A) of the decorative element (14), so that it can rotate freely and therefore be reversible .
Ainsi il peut être envisagé de créer un décor recto et un autre décor verso. En fait, le mode d'application à une bague selon la figure 6 et le mode d'application à un bracelet selon les figures 7 et 8 sont identiques au niveau de la réversibilité de l'élément de décor.So it can be considered to create a front and back decor. In fact, the mode of application to a ring according to FIG. 6 and the mode of application to a bracelet according to FIGS. 7 and 8 are identical at the level of the reversibility of the decorative element.
Selon les exemples de réalisation et d'application précités, un élément est relié à un autre élément par une double rotule.According to the aforementioned examples of embodiment and application, one element is connected to another element by a double ball joint.
De manière différente, mais selon le même concept inventif, selon les modes d'application des figures 9, 10, 11 et 12, la liaison entre deux éléments successifs s'effectue par interposition d'une rotule 4 simple, réalisée de manière solidaire à l'extrémité de l'un des éléments (16, 17, 18, 19) et destinée à coopérer librement ou non, avec un siège (5) correspondant, obtenu à partir de deux empreintes hémisphériques (5a, 5b) réalisées sur les deux demi-coques à assembler formant l'autre élément (20, 21, 22, 23), l'un ou l'autre des éléments étant un élément de décor.In a different way, but according to the same inventive concept, according to the modes of application of FIGS. 9, 10, 11 and 12, the connection between two successive elements is effected by the interposition of a simple ball joint 4, made in solidarity with the end of one of the elements (16, 17, 18, 19) and intended to cooperate freely or not, with a seat (5) corresponding, obtained from two hemispherical impressions (5a, 5b) made on both half-shells to be assembled forming the other element (20, 21, 22, 23), one or other of the elements being a decorative element.
C'est ainsi que selon la figure 9 il s'agit d'une bague, selon la figure 10 il s'agit d'un piercing, selon les figures 11 et 12 il s'agit de pendentifs.Thus according to Figure 9 it is a ring, according to Figure 10 it is a piercing, according to Figures 11 and 12 it is pendants.
Enfin et comme le montrent certaines figures, notamment les figuresFinally and as shown by some figures, especially the figures
1, 2 et 8, les empreintes réalisées sur le/les éléments en vue d'y former un siège (5, 11) pour la/ les rotules (4) ont un fond ouvert, de manière à rendre visibles lesdites rotules.1, 2 and 8, the impressions made on the element (s) to form a seat (5, 11) for the ball (s) (4) have an open bottom, so as to make visible said ball joints.
Bien entendu, comme le montrent les autres figures, il est également possible de rendre les rotules invisibles. Of course, as shown in the other figures, it is also possible to make the patella invisible.
