Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a wristwatch for displaying the current time in "normal" position and possibly a second information, hourly or non-hourly, whose control and reading are facilitated by deploying the housing comprising the control members and display, without necessarily detaching it from the bracelet held in the wrist by a clasp.
  • a display in "normal position" means a display whose case is firmly connected to the bracelet holding the wristwatch and whose reading information displayed is on the side of the back of the hand.
  • the housing can occupy a position quite usual being permanently attached to the bracelet and thus have a visible display on the side of the back of the hand, being substantially parallel to it.
  • the housing can also slightly deviate from this position by tilting and / or pivoting to provide a better view of the display and / or to allow access to a second display located in the bottom of the housing.
  • the patent US 1,804,048 discloses a device in which the housing tilts around a hinge by pressing a push-button through the middle part.
  • the device is composed of two hinged housings totally masking a display oriented towards the bottom of the case linked to the bracelet and making it visible by tilting at least 90 °, when one wants to have access to the displayed information.
  • the case is pivotally mounted in a frame, itself hinged to a fixed housing, allowing the mobile housing to be completely turned over and to have access to a second display located in the bottom of the mobile housing when it is brought back to normal position.
  • the document CH 320 858 discloses a wristwatch whose bracelet is in one piece. In all these devices of the prior art the mobile housing maintains a strong mechanical connection with the bracelet, allowing a reading of the display on the side of the back of the hand.
  • the present invention provides a new and innovative solution to the reading of information carried by a display that can be completely delocalized from its normal position, while maintaining a "safe" connection with the bracelet.
  • the invention relates to a wristwatch with a deploying housing comprising a bracelet made in one piece to completely surround the wrist of the wearer, being closed by a clasp connecting the two bracelet strands at 6 o'clock and 12 o'clock.
  • the bracelet indirectly supports a housing enclosing at least one watch movement for displaying a time information and at least one other hourly or non-hourly information.
  • the invention is essentially characterized in that the housing is mounted at the end of an additional flexible strand, the other end is pivotally attached to one of the bracelet strands.
  • the housing can occupy a normal position and a second position in which it can be deployed to be positioned in the hand, that is to say to allow the reading of displaying and manipulating the control members in a position opposite the so-called normal position.
  • the additional strand can be made in one part or in several parts, which will determine the position pivot point on the bracelet so that the display is oriented in the right direction when the housing is fixedly mounted on the additional strand and that it is held in the hand.
  • the pivot point When the additional strand is in one part, the pivot point must be on the strand at 6 o'clock; when it is in two parts, connected between them pan a second pivot point, it must be on the strand at 12 o'clock.
  • the display will be reversed, a disadvantage that it is easy to eliminate by providing that the housing is rotatably mounted so that it can be turned 180 °.
  • a pivot point When the additional strand is in at least two parts, a pivot point, with the exception of that located on the bracelet, may be replaced by a hinge. When the number of parts constituting the additional strand is even, a pivot axis along the length of said additional strand must be provided to be able to return the housing when it is deployed in the hand.
  • an analog display-wristwatch whose housing 3 contains a movement allowing on the one hand to display the current time on a display 7, on the other hand to cause a chronograph mechanism controlled by push buttons 2a, 2b, arranged on either side of a crown 4, to display the timing information on the same display 7 as the current time.
  • the display 7 could be analog type liquid crystal.
  • FIG. Fig. 1 a first embodiment which corresponds to the basic principle of the invention, in which the housing 3 can occupy a normal position while being held on the wrist by a wraparound bracelet 5 closed by a clasp 8 (FIG. Fig. 1 ) and a second position in which it is deployed outside the bracelet 5 to be positioned in the hand ( Fig. 3 ).
  • the clasp 8 will be illustrated later by a simple buckle 8a attached to the end of the strand 12 or bracelet 10 located at 12 o'clock. It is obvious that other types of clasps could be used.
  • the casing 3 is fixedly mounted at the end of an additional flexible strand 10 made in a single part 14.
  • the other end of the strand 14 has a pivot point 15 on the strand 6 of the bracelet 10 located at 6 o'clock.
  • This pivot point 15 can be made by any known means, for example by means of riveting play.
  • the part 14, forming the additional strand 10, and thus also the housing 3, are held in the normal position ( Figures 1 and 2 ) by means of locking / unlocking 19 between the strand 12 and the additional strand 10, as can be seen on a figure 4 representing the wristwatch unfolded flat.
  • This locking / unlocking means 19 may be any known means, such as a pressure type device as shown, or a push-lock device.
  • FIG. 5 and 6 represent a top view, the wristwatch being unfolded flat, a second embodiment which differs from the previous in that the pivot point 15 of the additional strand 14 is positioned on the strand 12 of bracelet 5 at 12 o'clock.
  • the housing 3 By deploying the housing 3, as shown in FIG. figure 6 , it is obvious that the display 7 will be reversed. It is then expected that the housing 3 is rotatably mounted on the end of the additional strand 14 around a point of rotation 9. It is then possible to return the housing 3 by 180 ° to have a normal reading of the display 7 when the housing 3 is positioned in the hand.
  • the additional strand 14 may be flexible but not extensible in the direction of its length. According to a variant also represented in Figures 5 and 6 , the additional strand 14 may also be extensible in the direction of its length so as to allow the user to have a better positioning in the palm of the hand, or even at the fingertips.
  • the additional strand 14 is constituted by a sleeve 14a in which can slide a tongue 14b. Equivalently but not limited to, the strand 14 could be formed of spring links, or be made of an elastic material. This variant is obviously applicable to the first embodiment as well as other embodiments that will now be described.
  • FIGS. 7 and 8 represent in top view, the wristwatch being unfolded flat, a third embodiment which differs from the previous ones in that the additional flexible strand 10 is made in two parts 14, 16 which are hinged together by a second point of pivoting 25.
  • the first portion 14 has at its end the first pivot point 15 on the bracelet 5, said pivoting being effected for this embodiment on the strand 12 to 12h.
  • the end of the second portion 16 supports the housing 3 fixedly mounted.
  • the double pivoting of the housing 3 makes its display 7 is in the usual reading position when the housing 3 is deployed in the hand.
  • the first part 14 is held on the bracelet 5 as previously by a first locking / unlocking device 19 and the second part 16 by a second locking / unlocking device 29 provided between the end of the second part 16 and the first part 14.
  • the first locking device / Unlocking 19 may advantageously be associated with the second pivoting device 25, so as to reduce the number of parts to be assembled.
  • the variant provided in the second embodiment would, by designing one or other of the parts 14, 16 of the additional strand 10 expandably, to bring the pivot points 15, 25 of the center of the bracelet, if only for an aesthetic purpose.
  • the Figures 11 and 12 show a fifth embodiment, on the same principle as the third and fourth embodiments, but which differs in that the junction between the portions 14, 16 of the additional strand 10 is achieved by means of a hinge 22.
  • the first display 7 is facing the palm of the hand and is therefore not visible.
  • this embodiment allows to provide a second display 17 in the bottom of the housing 3.
  • it is a compass, but we can imagine any other type of display that can go from a simple vanity mirror to a calculator, phone, calendar, etc. keyboard. In the latter case it would obviously be necessary for the displays 7 and 17 to have inverted readings, or for rotation of the housing 3 to be provided, as in the second and fourth embodiments.
  • the base pivot point 15 may be indifferently on one or other of the strands 6, 12 of the bracelet 5.
  • FIG. 13 and 14 shows in perspective a sixth embodiment which differs from the previous one in that the junction between the parts 14 and 16 of the additional strand 10 is further effected by means of a pivot axis 23 along the length of the second part 16 , then formed of two disjoint elements 16a, 16b. Equivalently this pivoting 24 could be performed on the first portion 14 of the additional strand 10.
  • This construction has the advantage of allowing to read indifferently one or other of the displays 7 or 17 when the housing is deployed in the hand.
  • the flexible additional strand 10 is made in one or two parts 14, 16.
  • the Figures 15 and 16 represent a seventh embodiment in which the additional strand 10 is made in more than two parts, namely in this example in three parts 14, 16, 18.
  • the first part 14 comprises, as in the previous embodiments, a point
  • the second part 16 comprises, as in the fifth embodiment, a hinge 22 making it possible to connect it to the first part 14.
  • the third part 8 is connected to the second part 16 by a second hinge 24 and support the housing 3.
  • These three parts 14, 16, 18 can be held in place in the normal position by three locking / unlocking means of the type previously described, with a folding accordion which allows them to be masked, or almost, under the housing 3.
  • the double tilting around the hinges 22, 24 makes it possible to have the display 7 in the usual reading position .
  • the third part 18 may be merged with the housing 3, the hinge 24 then being formed by a bar 20 at the position 6 of the display 7.
  • the bar 20 or, as shown for a better understanding of the portions 20a extending beyond the horns 3a of the housing 3 may also constitute locking / unlocking means snap-fastening in studs 21 integral with the strand 6 of the bracelet 5
  • the same arrangement can be provided at 6 o'clock, so that the number of locking / unlocking means can be reduced to two.
  • FIGS 17 and 18 represent, in a sort of condensed form, variants applicable to the preceding embodiments. These figures show the possibility of snapping the housing 3 into a rigid housing 13 provided at the end of the additional strand 10 (in this case the part 16) for example by means of an S-spring 11 snapping into a slot 11a of said housing 13. This allows for example to be able to detach the chronograph from the bracelet and fix it to a link around the neck.
  • the rigid housing 13 or the housing 3 can snap into another rigid housing 23 secured to the first part 14 when the additional strand 10 is in two parts, or directly to the strap 5 when the additional strand 10 is in one piece. only part.
  • the rigid housing 23 can therefore be substituted for one of the locking / unlocking means
