Description
La présente invention se rapporte au domaine de l'horlogerie et de la bijouterie. Elle concerne plus précisément un bracelet à maillons articulés entre eux à l'aide d'une goupille.The present invention relates to the field of watchmaking and jewelery. It relates more precisely a link bracelet articulated between them using a pin.
De tels bracelets sont bien connus de l'homme de métier. Ils comportent une pluralité de maillons, identiques ou appariés, articulés deux à deux à la manière d'une charnière comportant une partie mâle, une partie femelle et une goupille de liaison. Les maillons sont, par exemple, des éléments en I alternant avec des éléments en H entre les branches desquels ils sont engagés. Ils peuvent être également des éléments de forme plus complexe, comprenant d'un côté la partie charnière mâle et de l'autre, la partie femelle. Ils sont traversés de trous formant un alignement lorsque la partie mâle est engagée dans la partie femelle, et dans lesquels prennent place des goupilles.Such bracelets are well known to those skilled in the art. They comprise a plurality of links, identical or paired, articulated in pairs in the manner of a hinge comprising a male part, a female part and a connecting pin. The links are, for example, elements in I alternating with elements in H between the branches to which they are engaged. They can also be elements of more complex shape, comprising on one side the male hinge part and on the other, the female part. They are traversed by holes forming an alignment when the male part is engaged in the female part, and in which pins are placed.
L'assemblage des maillons à l'aide des goupilles répond à des impératifs précis liés à l'utilisation du bracelet. On notera tout d'abord, que les goupilles doivent être bloquées axialement à l'intérieur de l'alignement de trous pour ne pas en sortir, mais libres en rotation à l'intérieur de l'une des parties charnière mâle ou femelle, afin de ne pas entraver le mouvement d'articulation des maillons. Par ailleurs, elles doivent être montées de façon amovible de manière à retirer ou ajouter un maillon lors d'un éventuel réglage en longueur du bracelet.The assembly of the links using the pins meets specific requirements related to the use of the bracelet. It will first be noted that the pins must be locked axially inside the alignment of holes so as not to come out, but free to rotate inside one of the male or female hinge parts, so not to hinder the linkage movement of the links. Furthermore, they must be removably mounted so as to remove or add a link during a possible adjustment in length of the bracelet.
Lorsque les maillons sont en métal, une solution aux différentes contraintes de montage des goupilles, consiste à les chasser à l'intérieur de la partie charnière mâle et à les laisser libres dans la partie femelle. Cette solution ne peut pas être adoptée pour des maillons en céramique en raison du caractère fragile de ce matériau. En effet, la céramique n'étant pas apte à se déformer plastiquement, les maillons risqueraient de se briser lors de l'opération de chassage des goupilles. De plus, le diamètre des trous traversant doit être donné avec une grande précision pour qu'il soit possible d'y chasser une goupille. Or, dans la céramique, le perçage de trous avec une faible tolérance est difficile et coûteux.When the links are metal, a solution to the different mounting constraints of the pins, is to chase them inside the male hinge part and leave them free in the female part. This solution can not be adopted for ceramic links because of the fragile nature of this material. Indeed, the ceramic is not able to deform plastically, the links could break during the operation of driving the pins. In addition, the diameter of the through holes must be given with great precision so that it is possible to drive a pin there. However, in ceramics, drilling holes with low tolerance is difficult and expensive.
On utilise donc, selon l'état de la technique, des pièces intermédiaires pour l'assemblage des goupilles avec des maillons céramiques. Ces pièces sont constituées d'un premier tube muni d'une fente longitudinale, lequel est constitué d'un matériau déformable élastiquement tel que du métal ou du plastique, et d'un deuxième tube non fendu. Les dimensions radiales et longitudinales relatives des différents éléments de la charnière sont importantes pour le fonctionnement de l'articulation. La partie charnière mâle des maillons est percée d'un trou traversant de diamètre supérieur à celui des trous de la partie charnière femelle. Le diamètre de la goupille est inférieur aux diamètres des trous pratiqués dans les parties charnières mâle et femelle. Le diamètre extérieur des premier et deuxième tubes est supérieur au diamètre des trous de la partie charnière femelle, mais inférieur au diamètre du trou de la partie mâle. Le diamètre intérieur du premier tube fendu est légèrement inférieur au diamètre de la goupille, tandis que le diamètre intérieur du deuxième tube lui est légèrement supérieur. Ce dernier est, par ailleurs inférieur au diamètre extérieur du premier tube fendu. Enfin, la longueur totale des premier et deuxième tubes mis bout à bout, est sensiblement égale à la longueur du trou de la partie charnière mâle, et la longueur de la goupille est sensiblement égale à la somme des longueurs du trou de la partie charnière mâle et de deux trous de la partie charnière femelle.Thus, according to the state of the art, intermediate parts are used for assembling the pins with ceramic links. These parts consist of a first tube provided with a longitudinal slot, which consists of an elastically deformable material such as metal or plastic, and a second non-split tube. The relative radial and longitudinal dimensions of the various elements of the hinge are important for the operation of the joint. The male hinge part of the links is pierced with a through hole of diameter greater than that of the holes of the female hinge portion. The diameter of the pin is smaller than the diameters of the holes made in the male and female hinge parts. The outer diameter of the first and second tubes is greater than the diameter of the holes of the female hinge portion, but less than the diameter of the hole of the male portion. The inside diameter of the first split tube is slightly smaller than the diameter of the pin, while the inside diameter of the second tube is slightly greater. The latter is also less than the outside diameter of the first split tube. Finally, the total length of the first and second end-to-end tubes is substantially equal to the length of the hole of the male hinge portion, and the length of the pin is substantially equal to the sum of the lengths of the hole of the male hinge portion. and two holes in the female hinge portion.
Les premier et deuxième tubes sont disposés bout à bout à l'intérieur de la partie charnière mâle d'un premier maillon. Leurs diamètres extérieurs étant supérieurs au diamètre des trous de la partie charnière femelle, lesdits tubes sont bloqués axialement dans le trou charnière mâle. De plus, ils ne peuvent pas coulisser l'un dans l'autre, en raison de leurs diamètres intérieurs et extérieurs relatifs. La goupille est logée à l'intérieur des premier et deuxième tubes, ses extrémités étant engagées dans les trous de la partie charnière femelle d'un maillon voisin du premier maillon, dans lesquels elles sont libres en rotation. Le diamètre intérieur du deuxième tube étant supérieur au diamètre de la goupille, celle-ci est libre à l'intérieur du deuxième tube. Inversement, le diamètre intérieur du premier tube fendu étant légèrement inférieur au diamètre de la goupille, celle-ci est solidaire axialement et en rotation du premier tube, sous l'action de serrage qu'il exerce sur elle. On notera que l'introduction de la goupille dans le premier tube fendu est réalisée par chassage. Comme ledit tube est fendu, il est s'étend légèrement radialement sous l'action du chassage, de sorte que son diamètre initial ne doit pas être nécessairement donné avec une grande précision relativement au diamètre de la goupille.The first and second tubes are disposed end-to-end within the male hinge portion of a first link. Their outer diameters being greater than the diameter of the holes of the female hinge portion, said tubes are locked axially in the male hinge hole. In addition, they can not slide into each other because of their relative inner and outer diameters. The pin is housed inside the first and second tubes, its ends being engaged in the holes of the female hinge portion of a link adjacent the first link, in which they are free to rotate. The inner diameter of the second tube being greater than the diameter of the pin, it is free inside the second tube. Conversely, the inside diameter of the first split tube being slightly smaller than the diameter of the pin, the latter is axially fixed and in rotation with the first tube, under the clamping action that it exerts on it. Note that the introduction of the pin in the first split tube is carried out by driving. As said tube is slotted, it is extended slightly radially under the action of driving, so that its initial diameter does not necessarily have to be given with great precision relative to the diameter of the pin.
La goupille étant solidaire du premier tube fendu, elle est piégée à l'intérieur du trou traversant la partie charnière mâle. De plus, elle est bloquée axialement à l'intérieur de ce trou par le deuxième tube qui occupe l'autre portion de la longueur du trou et bloque ainsi, tout mouvement axial du premier tube fendu.The pin being secured to the first split tube, it is trapped inside the hole through the male hinge portion. In addition, it is blocked axially inside this hole by the second tube which occupies the other portion of the length of the hole and thus blocks any axial movement of the first split tube.
Ainsi positionnée dans l'alignement des trous de deux maillons voisins, la goupille assure le maintien et l'articulation de ces maillons. De plus, elle est peut être retirée aisément des maillons, afin de démonter le bracelet, par chassage hors du premier tube fendu. On utilise à cet effet une tige rigide, de diamètre légèrement inférieur à celui de la goupille, qui vient chasser la goupille hors du tube fendu lorsqu'elle est elle-même actionnée à l'aide d'un marteau.Thus positioned in the alignment of the holes of two adjacent links, the pin ensures the maintenance and articulation of these links. In addition, it can be removed easily links, to disassemble the bracelet, by hunting out of the first split tube. For this purpose, a rigid rod, slightly smaller in diameter than that of the pin, is used to drive the pin out of the split tube when it is itself actuated by means of a hammer.
Le montage d'un tel bracelet articulé est réalisé manuellement et comporte essentiellement les étapes suivantes :
- Introduction du premier et du deuxième tube fendu dans le trou traversant de la partie charnière mâle d'un premier maillon.
- Engagement de la partie charnière mâle dudit premier maillon dans la partie charnière femelle d'un deuxième maillon de manière à aligner les trous traversant.
- Positionnement d'une goupille à travers les trous traversant par chassage à l'intérieur du premier tube fendu après engagement dans le deuxième tube.
- Introduction of the first and second split tubes into the through hole of the male hinge portion of a first link.
- Engagement of the male hinge portion of said first link in the female hinge portion of a second link so as to align the through holes.
- Positioning a pin through the through holes by driving inside the first split tube after engagement in the second tube.
Le réglage en longueur d'un tel bracelet comporte, outre les étapes citées précédemment, une première étape de chassage d'une goupille hors du premier tube fendu afin de désolidariser deux maillons voisins.The length adjustment of such a bracelet comprises, in addition to the steps mentioned above, a first step of driving a pin out of the first split tube in order to separate two adjacent links.
Les étapes de montage ainsi décrites doivent être réalisées avec minutie. II est important, par exemple, de disposer les deux types de tubes dans le trou traversant de la partie charnière mâle sans les confondre ou les intervertir. Une confusion entre un tube fendu et un tube non fendu, pourrait, dans le pire des cas, avoir pour conséquence l'ouverture intempestive du bracelet et la perte de la montre. Il est recommandé également d'introduire la goupille dans les trous traversant, en commençant par le deuxième tube non fendu, afin de ne pas chasser la quasi-totalité de la longueur de la goupille à travers le premier tube fendu. En raison de la petite taille des pièces et de leur similitude, le risque d'erreur au montage est important et potentiellement très gênant. On notera par ailleurs, que le montage d'un tel bracelet requiert un temps considérable, ce qui a une incidence non négligeable sur son coût final.The assembly steps described in this way must be carried out meticulously. It is important, for example, to arrange the two types of tubes in the through-hole of the male hinge part without confusing or reversing them. A confusion between a split tube and a non-split tube could, in the worst case, result in the untimely opening of the bracelet and the loss of the watch. It is also recommended to insert the pin into the through holes, starting with the second non-split tube, so as not to chase almost the entire length of the pin through the first split tube. Because of the small size of the parts and their similarity, the risk of error in assembly is important and potentially very embarrassing. Note also that the mounting of such a bracelet requires a considerable time, which has a significant impact on its final cost.
Un bracelet à maillons articulés à l'aide d'une groupille selon l'état de la technique est décrit dans le document
La présente invention permet de remédier au moins partiellement à ces divers inconvénients, en proposant un bracelet à maillons articulés dont le montage est rendu plus simple et plus rapide grâce à la réduction du nombre de pièces. Plus précisément, la présente invention concerne un bracelet à maillons articulés à la manière d'une charnière, comprenant :
- des premiers maillons munis d'une partie charnière mâle percée d'un premier trou traversant,
- des deuxièmes maillons munis d'une partie charnière femelle percée d'un deuxième et d'un troisième trous traversants, lesdits premiers, deuxièmes et troisième trous formant un alignement lorsqu'une partie charnière mâle est engagée dans une partie charnière femelle,
- des goupilles prenant place dans lesdits alignements, et
- des éléments de blocage axial desdites goupilles, formés d'un premier tube élastique radialement et d'un deuxième tube, montés bloqués axialement dans lesdits premiers trous traversants, lesdites goupilles étant montées chassées à l'intérieur desdits premiers tubes fendus,
- first links provided with a male hinge portion pierced with a first through hole,
- second links having a female hinge portion pierced with second and third through holes, said first, second and third holes forming an alignment when a male hinge portion is engaged in a female hinge portion;
- pins taking place in said alignments, and
- axial locking elements of said pins, formed of a first radially elastic tube and a second tube, mounted axially locked in said first through holes, said pins being mounted driven inside said first split tubes,
Grâce à cette caractéristique, il n'est plus nécessaire d'introduire deux mais une pièce à l'intérieur des trous traversants de la partie charnière mâle, ce qui simplifie et rationnalise le montage des bracelets.Thanks to this characteristic, it is no longer necessary to introduce two but one piece inside the through holes of the male hinge part, which simplifies and rationalizes the assembly of the bracelets.
Dans un mode de réalisation avantageux, le premier tube est muni d'une fente longitudinale et lesdits premier et deuxième tubes sont solidaires sur une portion angulaire inférieure à 180°, s'étendant sensiblement à l'opposé de ladite fente longitudinale. D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de la présente invention ressortiront plus clairement de la description détaillée qui suit d'un exemple de réalisation d'un bracelet à maillons articulés selon l'invention, cet exemple étant donné à titre purement illustratif et non limitatif seulement, en liaison avec le dessin annexé sur lequel :

Le montage des bracelets articulés selon l'invention est facilité et rendu plus rapide par rapport au montage d'un bracelet selon l'état de la technique. Un élément de blocage axial 31 est introduit dans un premier trou traversant 12 d'un premier maillon 10 en I, puis ledit premier maillon 10 est engagé entre les branches d'un deuxième maillon 20 en H. Une goupille est chassée dans l'élément de blocage axial 31 à travers l'alignement formée par les trois trous 12, 22, 23. Les deux maillons 10 et 20 s'en trouvent assemblés de façon articulée. Toute confusion entre tube fendu et tube non fendu est évitée, et le temps d'introduction de l'élément de blocage est divisé par deux.The assembly of articulated bracelets according to the invention is facilitated and made faster compared to the mounting of a bracelet according to the state of the art. An
Ainsi a été décrit un bracelet à maillons articulés d'un montage aisé et rapide. Bien entendu, le bracelet selon l'invention ne se limite pas au mode de réalisation qui vient d'être décrit et diverses modifications et variantes simples peuvent être envisagées par l'homme du métier sans sortir du cadre de l'invention tel que défini par les revendications annexées.Thus has been described a link bracelet articulated easy assembly and fast. Of course, the bracelet according to the invention is not limited to the embodiment which has just been described and various simple modifications and variants can be envisaged by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
On notera en premier lieu, que dans le mode de réalisation décrit précédemment, les maillons sont différents et appariés. Chacun comporte deux parties charnière mâles ou deux parties charnière femelles. En variante, les maillons peuvent être identiques et comporter chacun une partie charnière mâle et une partie charnière femelle sans que l'invention en soit modifiée. Un tel type de bracelet est représenté en
On a mentionné, par ailleurs, que les éléments de blocage axial 31 sont formés d'un premier tube 40 muni d'une fente longitudinale et d'un deuxième tube 41 non fendu. Bien entendu, ce mode de réalisation peut être étendu à tout élément de blocage axial comportant un premier tube élastique radialement et un deuxième tube ne possédant pas cette propriété. On notera par exemple, que le premier tube peut être réalisé dans une matière élastique telle que du caoutchouc. II peut être également formé d'une tresse, métallique ou autre, apte à s'étendre radialement. De tels tubes sont bien connus de l'homme de métier. Comme pour le tube fendu, le soudage entre les deux tubes doit être réalisé de manière à préserver l'élasticité radiale du premier tube. Ceci est peut être obtenu, par exemple, en soudant les deux tubes en quatre points séparés chacun de 90°. Chaque portion angulaire située entre deux points de soudage garde son élasticité radiale, et par conséquent le tube conserve globalement sa propriété d'élasticité radiale. Bien entendu, le soudage peut également être réalisé, comme précédemment sur une portion angulaire n'excédant pas 180 °.It has been mentioned, moreover, that the
