Definitions

  • the invention relates to a closure for a bracelet with a base part to which the bracelet is fastened and which has a closure end with a pin, and with a pivot arm to which the bracelet is fastened and which has a closure head, wherein the pivot arm pivotally is connected to the base part and the closure head has a locking mechanism for selectively locking and releasing the pin.
  • Such closures are used to attach a bracelet made of leather, textile or drgl. It and z. B. to fix a watch on the wrist.
  • the EP 0 287 583 B1 is a closure with two parts known.
  • the one part comprises a locking mechanism for locking a pin attached to the other part and a bolt for attaching the bracelet.
  • the structure is thereby relatively complicated.
  • a closure which has a base part and an arm pivotally connected thereto.
  • the base part has projections for attaching the bracelet. This configuration makes it difficult, for. B. to attach a leather strap so that the bracelet has the desired width.
  • EP 0 835 618 A2 discloses a closure for a bracelet, comprising a base to which the bracelet is attachable and which has a closure end with a pin and a pivot arm to which the bracelet is attachable and which has a closure head, wherein the Swivel arm is pivotally connected to the base part and the closure head has a bolt which acts in the closed position of the closure on a projection on the base part.
  • the closure end of the base part has a through opening through which a part of the bracelet can be passed, so that the pin can protrude through the bracelet.
  • the bracelet has a closure end with a pin and a through hole through which a Part of the bracelet is guided, so that the pin can protrude through the bracelet and is lockable.
  • the pin thus serves on the one hand for holding the bracelet and on the other hand for locking.
  • the structure of the closure is simplified.
  • the width of the bracelet is easily fixed when attaching the closure by the pin is passed through the desired hole of the bracelet.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 show an embodiment of a closure, which comprises a base part 10, a pivot arm 20 and a closure head 30.
  • a bracelet from which in Fig. 2 a part is shown in dashed lines, can be fastened to the base part 10 and the closure head 30.
  • the base part 10 has two legs 11a, 11b, which at a distance from each other extend from the joint end 10b to the closure end 10a.
  • the legs 11a, 11b are rigidly interconnected by means of a transverse web 12 and a transverse plate 13. This is the end of the closure end 10a and spaced from the transverse web 12 is arranged. This results in a gap 14, through which a part of a bracelet 1 can be passed, as in Fig. 2 shown.
  • the closure end 10a has two longitudinal walls with projections 16a, 16b which are spaced from the transverse plate 13 and extend inwardly. If the bracelet 1 is inserted in the intermediate space 14, the projections 16a, 16b are located on the upper side thereof and the transverse plate 13 on the underside of the bracelet 1. This encompassing by means of the projections 16a, 16b gives the bracelet 1 additional support in the closure end 10a.
  • the shape of the pin 15 is in Fig. 3 more precisely.
  • the pin 15 comprises an anchoring end 15 a, which protrudes from a main body 15 b and serves for the firm anchoring of the pin 15 in the transverse plate 13.
  • the main body 15b has a substantially circular cylindrical shape and is connected to a mushroom-shaped head 15d, 15f via a tapered portion 15c.
  • This has a spacer body 15d, which is followed by a hat 15f.
  • the spacer body 15d has a substantially circular cylindrical shape.
  • the hat 15f has a tapered shape. The transition of the spacer body 15d to the hat 15f serves as a stop 15e for locking the pin 15 in the closure head 30th
  • the legs 11a, 11b have through openings 17a, 17b. These are aligned with a through opening 22 in the pivot arm 20, so that by passing an axis 21, a joint is formed for pivoting the pivot arm 20 with respect to the base part 10th
  • the pivot arm 20 is formed substantially in the form of a plate.
  • the width is chosen so that in the closed position of the closure according to Fig. 6 the swing arm 20 comes to lie between the legs 11a, 11b.
  • a recess 23 in the pivot arm 20 serves to receive the cross bar 12.
  • the base part 10 and the pivoting arm 20 are adapted to one another in their shape such that, in the closed position, there are no shoulders between the legs 11a, 11b and the pivoting arm 20.
  • the parts 10 and 20 seen in the longitudinal direction to a curvature. As a result, the closure clings better to the wrist.
  • the pivot arm 20 is attached to the end of the closure head 30.
  • the connection rigidly formed.
  • the swivel arm 20 has a further passage opening 24 for receiving a pin 29 connected to the closure head 30.
  • the closure head 30 here comprises a closure housing 31, two pressure actuators 40a, 40b and a closure cover 50.
  • the closure housing 31 has two extensions 32a, 32b, between which the end of the pivot arm 20 is arranged and which are provided with passage openings 32a, 32b.
  • the pin 29 is passed through this and the passage opening 24 and anchored so the pivot arm 20 on the closure head 30th
  • the closure housing 31 is provided with a through recess 33 for receiving the pressure actuators 40a, 40b, which are biased by means of springs 35a, 35b.
  • the recess 33 extends in a direction which is substantially parallel to the axis about which the pivot arm 20 is pivotable.
  • the top and bottom of the closure housing 31 is provided with an opening 34, so that the pin 15 can protrude through the closure housing 31.
  • To hold the pressure actuators 40a, 40b serve holding elements 36a, 36b. These are designed here in the form of headless screws which are screwed in the closure housing 31 and extend through the recess 33 therethrough.
  • the closure lid 50 has side elements 51a, 51b, which are fixedly connected to one another via a central part 52 and which are provided with slots 53a, 53b.
  • the ends of the pressure actuators 40 a, 40 b protrude therethrough, whereby they are accessible on the one hand for the actuation and on the other hand, the closure cover 50 on the closure housing 31 hold.
  • the closure lid 50 further comprises means for attaching one end of the bracelet 1.
  • the respective side member 51a, 51b has a bore 55a, 55b on the inside. In these bores 55a, 55b, the ends of a pin can grip, on which the bracelet 1 is held.
  • the swing arm 20 is pivoted so that the hat 15f of the pin 15 abuts against the chamfered surfaces 46a, 46b.
  • the user then actuates the pressure actuators 40a, 40b or simply pushes on the closure lid 50, whereby the pressure actuators 40a, 40b are pushed apart and the hat 15f of the pin 15 is pushed through the enlarged gap 47.
  • the pressure actuators 40a, 40b are shifted back into their initial position due to the force of the springs 35a, 35b.
  • the stop 15e of the pin 15 is now on the locking walls 45a, 45b.
  • the pressure actuators 40a, 40b are actuated, whereby they release the hat 15f and the pin 15 can be pulled out.
  • the locked state of the closure is in the FIGS. 5 to 7 shown.
  • the head 15d, 15f of the pin 15 projects through the pressure actuators 40a, 40b.
  • the closure lid 50 here has a recess 56 into which the hat 15e partially engages.
  • Fig. 5 is also a bracelet 1 indicated.
  • the main body 15b of the pin 15 protrudes through a hole 2 in the bracelet 1 therethrough. So that this is kept well, the bracelet 1 is made so that the hole 2 at the beginning is smaller than the main body 15 b of the pin 15.
  • the bracelet 1 is made so that the hole 2 at the beginning is smaller than the main body 15 b of the pin 15.
  • Has the bracelet 1 a series of holes 2 (see. Fig. 2 ), so its width is adjustable by the length of the free end of the bracelet 1, which protrudes through the gap 14 at the closure end 10 a fixed, and the pin is passed through the corresponding hole 2.
  • the closure is useful for various bracelets having one or more holes, particularly for such leather, textile, plastic, etc. bracelets as are used for attaching watches to the wrist.
  • the bracelet may consist of a single elongated part, so it is looped through fasteners on the clock and the end of the closure end 10a and the closure head 30 is attached. It can also consist of at least two parts, which are attached to the end of the clock and the closure.
