Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a magnetic closure bracelet comprising permanent magnets and it relates in particular to a watch strap comprising such a magnetic closure.
  • Figure 10d of the patent document FR 2,834,622 illustrates a magnetic closure watch strap having a first and a second flexible strand, the two strands being separable and being provided to overlap in the closed position of the bracelet.
  • the bracelet further comprises two magnetic elements, the first strand of the bracelet incorporates a first magnetic element which is fixed, while the second strand, in the form of a sleeve, incorporates a second magnetic element, said movable magnetic element, which is arranged to slide longitudinally , with fatty friction, inside the sheath.
  • the two magnetic elements are facing one another and they attract each other.
  • the two magnetic elements make it possible to fix the two strands to one another in the closed position of the bracelet.
  • the bracelet it is possible to adjust the length of the bracelet by sliding the movable magnetic element inside its sheath.
  • the patent document teaches that the adjustment of the length of the bracelet can be achieved simply by longitudinally sliding one of the strands against the other in the closed position of the bracelet. Indeed, as long as the strength of attraction exerted by the fixed magnetic element on the movable magnetic element is sufficient to overcome the greasy friction force, the sliding of one strand on the other causes the sliding magnetic element to slide inside the his sheath.
  • a magnetic closure bracelet such as the preamble of claim 1 is known in the document WO2004063821 .
  • WO2011048344 discloses a magnetic closure for a clothing belt with first and second magnetic circuit portions each having a ferromagnetic yoke.
  • An object of the present invention is to overcome the disadvantages of the prior art which have just been described.
  • the present invention achieves this goal by providing a magnetic closure bracelet according to the appended claim 1.
  • An advantage of the invention is that it is possible to choose the length of the bracelet by simply choosing which of the plurality of second magnetic circuit portions is placed in superimposed position with the first magnetic circuit portion. Moreover, in the case where none of the second magnetic circuit portions is exactly superimposed on the first magnetic circuit portion, the mutual attraction existing between the first magnetic circuit portion and the second magnetic circuit portion closest is normally sufficient to bring the latter in superimposed position.
  • Another advantage of the invention is that the use of a whole row of bipolar magnets, instead of a single magnet, makes it possible to better secure the contact surfaces of the two end parts in the closed position of the bracelet.
  • the presence of an alloy cylinder head Mild ferromagnetism in each magnetic circuit portion has the advantage of allowing the magnetic field to be well channeled, and thus to further increase the mutual attraction force between first and second magnetic circuit portions.
  • the ferromagnetic yokes have a length greater than half the width of the end portions of the bracelet.
  • the strap-shaped end portions can be flexible lengthwise while being relatively stiff in the width direction.
  • the spacing between two second magnetic circuit portions is at least equal to three quarters of the width of one of the second magnetic circuit portions.
  • a plurality of first magnetic circuit portions are integrated in the first end portion, said first portions being arranged parallel to each other and spaced apart from each other. This multiplication of magnetic circuit portions makes it possible to increase by the same amount the magnetic attraction force which secures the contact surfaces of the two end parts in the closed position of the bracelet.
  • the first magnetic circuit portions that are integrated in the first end portion are spaced apart from each other than the second magnetic circuit portions that are integrated in the second end portion.
  • the first terminal part is located on the outside of the ring formed by the bracelet, while the second end portion is on the inner side.
  • the same given angle subtends a longer arc on the outer end portion than on the inner end portion.
  • the characteristic according to which the first magnetic circuit portions are more spaced apart from each other than the second magnetic circuit portions thus makes it possible to correct the effect of the overlap of the end portions and to ensure the proper alignment of the first and second circuit portions. magnetic in the closed position of the bracelet.
  • the spacing between second portions of magnetic circuit decreases as one moves away from the end of the second end portion of the bracelet.
  • the more the second portions of the magnetic circuit to which the first magnetic circuit portions are superposed are remote from the end of the bracelet, the closer the bracelet is or, in other words, the smaller the diameter of the bracelet.
  • the closer the bracelet is the more it is necessary to reduce the spacing between the second magnetic circuit portions to correct the effect of the overlap of the end portions and to ensure proper alignment of the first and second portions magnetic circuit in the closed position of the bracelet.
  • the second magnetic circuit portions each comprise a row of bipolar magnets arranged between the ferromagnetic yoke of the second portion and the contact surface of the second end portion, the magnets a row having polarization directions parallel to each other and normal to the contact surface of the second end portion.
  • the rows of magnets of the first and second portions of the magnetic circuit all have the same number of magnets, the magnets being arranged so that the magnets of the first portions are each paired with a magnet of a second portion in the closed position of the bracelet, two paired magnets being superimposed and being polarized in the Same direction.
  • certain magnets of a row have their direction of polarization in the opposite direction of the polarization direction of the other magnets of the same row.
  • This characteristic has the advantage of allowing to better channel the magnetic field in the magnetic circuit portions.
  • each magnet of a row of magnets is biased in the opposite direction of its nearest neighbor in the row of magnets. This last characteristic has the effect of shortening the path traversed by the magnetic fields, and therefore of intensifying the magnetic field in the immediate vicinity of the contact surfaces.
  • the wristwatch comprises a watch case 1 having two pairs of horns 3 to which are attached the two strands 5 and 6 of the bracelet.
  • the strands are made of elastomers, which gives them the flexibility to wrap around the wrist of the wearer of the watch.
  • the strands 5, 6 each comprise an end portion, and these two end parts are respectively referenced 8 and 9 on the figures 1 , 2a and 2b . It will also be noted that in the closed position, as illustrated by the schematic view of the Figures 2a and 2b , the end portions overlap defining an overlap area.
  • the end portions thus each have a contact surface which is arranged to abut the contact surface of the other end portion in the closed position of the bracelet. Note further that, in the overlap zone, the end portion 8 of the first strand (referenced 5) is outside the ring formed by the bracelet in the closed position, while the end portion 9 of the second strand (referenced 6) is on the inner side of this ring.
  • the bracelet comprises still a first magnetic circuit portion integrated in the first terminal portion 8 and a plurality of second magnetic circuit portions integrated in the second terminal portion 9.
  • the first end portion 8 comprises two first magnetic circuit portions (respectively referenced 11a, 11b), while the second end portion 9 comprises six second magnetic circuit portions referenced 12a, 12b , 12c, 12d, 12e and 12f.
  • the number of portions can be virtually any. It may be noted, however, that the number of second magnetic circuit portions must be at least two.
  • the number of first magnetic circuit portions is preferably smaller than or equal to the number of second magnetic circuit portions.
  • a higher number of first and second magnetic circuit portions leads to a greater attraction force and improved reliability.
  • an embodiment that is even more reliable than that of the figure 1 may comprise 8 first and sixteen second portions of magnetic circuit. This latter embodiment will have the disadvantage of being a little more expensive.
  • the first 11a, 11b as the second 12a, 12b, 12c, 12d, 12e, 12f magnetic circuit portions are arranged parallel to each other and spaced apart from each other. It is also seen that the magnetic circuit portions each extend over a length substantially equal to the width of the bracelet. Indeed, advantageously, the magnetic circuit portions have a length that exceeds half the width of the bracelet. Moreover, it can also be seen that, in the example shown, the spacing between two second magnetic circuit portions 12a, 12b, 12c, 12d, 12e, 12f is at least three-quarters of the width of the magnet. one of the second magnetic circuit portions.
  • the figure 1 also indicates possible numerical values for the size of the spaces that separate a first or a second magnetic circuit portion from its nearest neighbor. It can be seen in the figure that the first magnetic circuit portions 11a and 11b are spaced 4mm apart. In addition, 3,405mm separate the second magnetic circuit portions 12a and 12b, 3,375mm the second portions 12b and 12c, 3,36mm the portion 12c and 12d, 3,34mm the portions 12d and 12e, and finally 3,32mm the portions 12th and 12f. These values illustrate that the spacing between the second portions is preferably smaller than the spacing between the first portions 11a, 11b. In the closed position of the bracelet, this advantageous characteristic makes it possible to compensate for the smaller radius of curvature of the second end portion.
  • the numerical values given above for the size of the spaces separating two second magnetic circuit portions also illustrate that the spacing between second portions of magnetic circuit preferably decreases as one moves away from the end of the second end portion 9 of the bracelet. Indeed, the more the second portions of the magnetic circuit to which the first magnetic circuit portions are superposed are remote from the end of the bracelet, the closer the bracelet is or, in other words, the smaller the diameter of the bracelet. Under these conditions, it will be understood that the closer the bracelet is, the more it is necessary to reduce the spacing between the second magnetic circuit portions to correct the effect of the overlap of the end portions and to ensure proper alignment of the first and second portions magnetic circuit in the closed position of the bracelet.
  • the magnetic circuit portions 11a, 11b, 12a, 12b, 12c, 12d, 12e, 12f all comprise a soft ferromagnetic alloy yoke (referenced respectively 14, 14b, 16a, 16b, 16c, 16d, 16 e and 16f on the figure 2b ).
  • the yokes have the shape of small rectangular plates arranged in the thickness of the bracelet, transversely to the longitudinal axis of the bracelet and parallel to the contact surface with the other strand of the bracelet.
  • the first magnetic circuit portions 11a and 11b, integrated into the first end portion of the bracelet each comprise a row of magnets.
  • the second magnetic circuit portions in the second end portion of the bracelet are also equipped with magnets.
  • each row of bipolar magnets is arranged between one of the yokes and the contact surface with the other strand of the wristband.
  • first and second magnetic circuit portion fulfill the function of "magnetic notches".
  • FIGs 3a and 3b are two partial schematic views of the arrangement of first and second portions of magnetic circuit which forms the magnetic closure of a bracelet according to a second embodiment of the invention.
  • the first and second magnetic circuit portions used in this second embodiment may be identical to those used in the first embodiment already described.
  • the difference between the first and second embodiments essentially lies in the use for the second embodiment of a larger number of first and second magnetic circuit portions.
  • the first magnetic circuit portions 111 are arranged parallel to each other and regularly spaced from each other. It is the same for second portions of magnetic circuit 112.
  • the first and second magnetic circuit portions 111 and 112 each comprise a soft ferromagnetic alloy yoke (referenced 114 for the first and 116 for seconds).
  • the yokes have the shape of small rectangular plates. They can be made for example by cutting a laminated strip of iron-cobalt alloy such as those provided by ArcelorMittal® under the name AFK502.
  • the yokes have a length of 25.75mm., A width of 4mm. and a thickness of 0.5mm.
  • a yoke is associated with a row of six magnets (the magnets being collectively referenced 118).
  • the magnets have a length of 4mm., A width of 3.25mm. and a height of 1 mm. for example, the magnets used may be standard magnets in Neodymium-Iron-Boron.
  • the magnets 118 are arranged between a yoke 14 or 16 and the contact surface between the two strand of the bracelet (represented by a dashed line on the figure 3b ).
  • the magnets are evenly spaced on the cylinder head with a gap of 1.25mm. between neighboring magnets.
  • the magnets of a first magnetic circuit portion 11 are represented in a superimposed position on the magnets of a second magnetic circuit portion 12.
  • the magnets 118 of the first portions are each paired with a magnet 118 of a second portion in the closed position of the bracelet.
  • the magnets are all polarized normally to the contact surface between the end portions of the bracelet strands.
  • the normal to the contact surface corresponds to the vertical on the Figures 3a and 3b .
  • the magnets 118 are all vertically polarized, some magnets in a row are preferably polarized in the opposite direction of the other magnets in the array. So, the figure 3b shows again that some magnets 118 are polarized upwards, while the other magnets are polarized downwards (as indicated by the arrows).
  • two superimposed magnets or in other words, two paired magnets
  • two paired magnets are always polarized in the same direction.
  • each magnet 118 is polarized in the opposite direction of its nearest neighbor in the row of magnets.
  • the direction of magnetization in the cylinder heads is indicated by arrows. It can be seen from the arrows that the arrangement that has just been described magnets 118 and yokes 114, 116 reduces the magnetic path so as to improve the coupling while limiting the magnetic pollution.
  • the second magnetic circuit portions 216 may not include magnets. Indeed, referring now to the figure 4 it can be seen that only the first magnetic circuit portions 214 comprise magnets 218.
