Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for connecting a Uhrarmbandes to a watch case, comprising two locking elements, which locking elements can be fastened to an end portion of the Uhrarmbandes, and along a sliding axis against a spring force from a projecting beyond the width of the end portion of the Uhrarmbandes holding position on the watch case to each other in a the width of the end portion of the Uhrarmbandes not or almost not exceeding the release position for the watch case and from this release position in the holding position by spring force are moved apart, wherein the sliding axis is aligned transversely to the longitudinal extent of the Uhrarmbandes and parallel to the band plane, wherein further the locking elements to outer , directed against the narrow band sides ends of mutually translationally movable sliding elements are provided, the inner, ie within the band width, having opposite ends, and wherein the inner ends of the sliding elements engage over each other in the direction of the sliding axis and an actuating element between the two inner ends of the sliding elements is provided.
  • the invention relates to a device for connecting a bracelet to another part according to the features of the preamble of claim 2.
  • a device for connecting a watch strap to another part, which in turn is pivotally connected to a watch case is from the US 3,908,243 A known.
  • the further part is designed as a housing in which a locking element in the longitudinal direction of the belt is displaceably mounted or pivotable about an axis directed perpendicular to the plane of the belt.
  • the further part further has an opening into which a hook element of a hinge arranged on the holding part can be inserted. After insertion of the hook of the holding part in the recess of the other part a fonnschlüssige connection is achieved between the hook part and the other part, which is securable by means of the locking element by the locking member displaced against the hook part or the hook part is turned over.
  • the locking element is equipped with actuators for pushing back or twisting.
  • This construction is complex and not easy to use, especially since the locking element is difficult to handle when pressed on its operation due to the sliding surfaces, especially in case of contamination. Furthermore, this known device is complicated to assemble and therefore also expensive.
  • a device of the type described above is known from FR 2 849 355 A1 known, wherein the actuating element is designed as acting on wedge surfaces of the inner ends of the sliding elements push button, which projects beyond the surface formed by a bracelet, which can easily lead to an unwanted movement of the sliding elements.
  • the invention aims at avoiding the disadvantages and difficulties mentioned in the introductory cited prior art and has as its object the further development of a device of the type described in the introduction so that it is easy to operate, so that not only a watch case is easy for non-watchmakers and quickly to different bracelets, eg color adapted to the wardrobe, can be connected, but it should be the device to be created robust and fully functional even when dirty and prevent accidental release of the connection of the band from the other part. A snagging on clothing etc. due to projecting parts should also be avoided. In addition, it should also be easy to manufacture and assemble and in particular be compact, i. With a very small space, it can also be used for narrow and thin and very flexible bands.
  • actuating element is pivotable about the transverse axis to the extension of the belt directed sliding axis.
  • the actuator is provided with two bearing shafts, each of which projects through an inner end of one of the sliding elements.
  • a preferred variant is characterized in that the inner ends of the sliding elements have cams which are directed against the actuating element which is provided with bearing surfaces directed against these cams.
  • a further preferred variant is characterized in that two springs are provided between the sliding elements, each of the springs being supported on an outer end of a sliding element and on the inner end of the other sliding element.
  • an expedient embodiment is characterized in that the sliding elements are guided by means of the respective inner end with the associated outer end connecting guides, wherein the guide of the first sliding element at the inner end of the second sliding element and the guide of the second Sliding element is guided at the inner end of the first sliding element.
  • the device is expediently provided in a housing which can either be installed in an end region of the band or which can be connected to the band at its end region, wherein the sliding elements advantageously have guides which are displaceably guided in recesses of the housing.
  • Fig. 1 shows a device according to the invention in an oblique position in the assembled state, without a band.
  • the Fig. 2 and 3 show the interior of this device, once in the holding position and once in the release position, each in an oblique angle.
  • Fig. 1 shows a device according to the invention in an oblique view, wherein the moving parts of the device are arranged in a housing 1, which is fastened via a tab 2 on a band, such as a watch band, or can be cast for example in a watch band.
  • the housing 1 has a width B which corresponds approximately to the width of the end portion of the tape.
  • the ends of the locking elements 3, 4 need - When used for watches - protrude in the holding position in recesses 9 of Hörnem a watch case and in the release position, the ends of the locking elements 3, 4, the distance D of the opposite horns of a watch case do not exceed, so that the device removed from the horns can be.
  • Each of the locking elements 3, 4 is provided on a sliding element 10, 11 which are movable relative to one another in the direction of the sliding axis 5.
  • Each sliding element 10, 11 has an outer end 12 and an inner end 13, wherein the sliding elements 10, 11 overlap each other like a clip, so that between the outer end 12 and the inner end 13 of a sliding element 10, 11 an inner end 13 of the other sliding element 10, 11 comes to rest.
  • a spring 6, preferably a helical spring provided so that the sliding elements 10, 11 by the spring forces in the holding position of the locking elements 3, 4, which in the Fig. 1 and 2 is shown, are pressed.
  • Each of the sliding elements 10, 11 has a guide 14 which connects the outer end 12 to the inner end 13 rigidly, wherein this guide 14 in each case passes through a recess 15 of the inner end 13 of the other sliding element 10, 11 and so on this recess 15th is guided.
  • Another guide of the sliding elements 10, 11 in their displacement is given by the housing 1.
  • this housing 1 can be replaced directly by the band, in which case the band completely engages over the sliding elements 10, 11 to form a recess matching these sliding elements 10, 11.
  • the inner ends 13 of the two sliding elements 10, 11 extending in the direction of the sliding axis 5 extending cams 16 which are directed against an arranged between the inner ends 13 actuating member 17, which is in contact with these cam 16 contact surfaces 18 has.
  • the actuating element 17 is pivotable about the sliding axis 5 by means of a hand lever 19, which extends approximately radially to the sliding axis 5, for which purpose the actuating element 17 has bearing shafts 20 extending in the direction of the sliding axis 5, one of which extends through an inner end 1 of a sliding element 10, 11 so that the two ends 13 of the sliding elements form the bearings for the actuating element 17.
  • the bearing axes 20 of the actuating element 17 are such long, that even at the in Fig. 3 illustrated release position in which the two inner ends 13 of the sliding elements 10, 11 have the greatest distance from each other, the bearing shafts 20, the inner ends 13 still protrude.
  • the shelves 18 of the actuating element 17 are - such as helical - designed so that upon rotation of the actuating element 17 about the sliding axis 5, the cam 16 of the sliding elements 10, 11 from a closely spaced position, the in Fig. 2 is shown in a maximum spaced position, the in Fig. 3 is shown, can be moved.
  • the device according to the invention is preferably attached to ends of bands, which can be done in any way - it then forms part of the band. Also, this device may be formed, for example, as an end member of a metal strip, wherein it is preferably hinged to the metal strip.
