Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for connecting a Uhrarmbandes to a watch case by means of a quick release device which has a movable in a locking position and a release position in cooperation with a counter-element locking element which causes a positive connection between the watch case and the Uhrarmband in locking position with the counter element and in the release position, a release of the Uhrarmbandes made possible by the watch case, wherein the locking element is mounted directly on the watch case movable and the counter element is rigidly provided on Uhrarmband.
  • a device of the type described above is for example from the JP 10 151 006 A and the WO 00/67078 A1 known.
  • a hook is pivotally mounted on the watch case, in which a arranged at the end of Uhrarmbands counter element can be used, after which the hook must be pivoted in the closed position for fixing the Uhrarmbandes.
  • a tab pivotally mounted over an arranged on Uhrarmband eyelet is to lead to the watch case, whereupon the tab can be pivoted to the watch case and thus secures the eyelet to a forestry set of the watch case.
  • the movable locking element is provided in a built-in Uhrarmband housing.
  • a retaining tab which is rigidly and immovably disposed on the watch case and can be brought with the locking element in a positive connection.
  • the invention aims to avoid these disadvantages and difficulties and has set itself the task of creating a device of the type described above, which is not only easy to use, but in which the watch band can be easily and inexpensively designed so that the acquisition of several watch bands for one and the same watch case requires no special effort.
  • a locking element is provided in a separate on the watch case pivotally mounted housing, which is a complex construction. In addition, this case can not be replaced when changing the band.
  • Hook connections for bangles are for example from the US Pat. No. 6,481,069 B1 and from the JP 2002 065 322 A known. These are mechanisms that should allow the creation and removal of the bangle; they do not serve to easily detachable connect a bracelet with a housing. In these known devices it comes when swiveling a hook-shaped locking element to release the hook connection. In this case, the hook protrudes from the bangle and it is the connection only in terms of tensile stresses safe, but it can not be achieved almost backlash-free fixation, which is also no need for bangles.
  • Fig. 1 a plan view of a watch case with attached on one side watch strap and Fig. 2 show a bottom view of the same.
  • Fig. 3 is a section according to the line III-III of Fig. 1 , wherein the tape is fixedly anchored to the watch case.
  • Fig. 4 also shows a section along the line III-III of Fig. 1 but here the locking element is moved to the release position.
  • Fig. 5 shows the watch strap removed from the watch case in an oblique angle.
  • the Fig. 6 . 7 and 8th show in to the Fig. 2 . 3 and 5 analog representations of another embodiment, but omitting the watch case.
  • a pivot axis 3 is inserted between the horns 1 of a watch case 2, on which a hook-shaped locking element 4 is pivotally mounted.
  • This locking element 4 extends with its width over more than half the distance between the opposing horns 1 of the watch case 2.
  • the locking element 4 is formed in the manner of a two-armed lever, wherein one of an extension 5 of the watch case 2 supporting coil spring. 6 is supported on a lever arm 7 of the locking element 4 and this presses in a locking position in which a hook-shaped end 8 of the locking element 4 with a counter-element 9 which is rigidly secured to the watch band 10, engages (see. Fig. 3 ).
  • the watch strap 10 has a slot-like opening 11 into which the locking element 4 is displaced when coupling the Uhrarmbandes 10 to the watch case 2, wherein the hook-shaped end 8, as in particular from Fig. 3 can be seen automatically at the end of Einschiebevorgangs with the counter element 9 engages, and to form a force acting in the longitudinal direction of the tape positive connection, so that the watch band 10 is fixed to the watch case 2.
  • the end portion of the Uhrarmbandes 10 has not only the slot-like opening 11, but also a projection 5 of the watch case 2 superior upper part 12, which extension 5 is provided between the horns 1 and - as mentioned - is rigidly attached to the watch case 2.
  • This upper part 12 is full on the extension 5, so that in the locked position an almost play-free connection between the watch case 2 and the Uhrarmband 10 is present, the Uhrarmband 10 comes with its end directly on the watch case 2 to the plant.
  • the locking element 4 To release the locking element 4, that is to achieve the release position in which the watch strap 10 can be removed from the watch case 2, the locking element 4 has an approximately perpendicular to the hook-shaped end 8 extending extension 13 which projects to the bottom of the watch case 2 and with which the locking element 4 can be pivoted from the underside of the housing, against the resistance of the spring element 6, wherein the hook-shaped end 8 is disengaged from the counter element 9.
  • the hook-shaped end 8 does not point against the top of the watch case 2, as seen from Fig. 3 it can be seen but also against the underside (cf. Fig. 7 ).
  • the spring element 6 can be designed not only as Druckfeder-, but also as a torsion spring element (see. Fig. 7 ), which is arranged around the pivot axis 3 around and is fixed with one end opposite the watch case 2 and engages the Verrieglungselement 4 with the other end.
  • the locking element 4 can also be slidably mounted on the watch case 2 or also about an axis perpendicular to the plane of the watch case 2; essential is the direct storage on the watch case. 2
