Definitions
- the present invention also relates to a wristwatch provided with such a clasp.
- the value of the wrist circumference varies according to the seasons, a maximum value being generally reached in summer and a minimum value being reached in winter. It is also preferable to provide a fine adjustment device of the useful length of the bracelet allowing the wearer of the bracelet to adjust this length to improve the comfort of the bracelet to wear.
- the patent application EP 09131060 A1 discloses a folding clasp type clasp having a cover having a series of pairs of holes for housing the ends of a strap of a strap. Two pairs of adjacent holes are spaced a distance defining a step of adjustment of the useful length of the bracelet, to meet the problems mentioned above.
- the adjustment of the length of the corresponding bracelet is difficult, in particular because it can not be performed without the use of a sharp tool. Not only does this operation require dexterity but, in addition, it may lead to damage to the hood in case of awkwardness of the person performing the adjustment.
- EP 0350785 B1 which describes a clasp similar to the previous but alternatively comprising a device for adjusting the useful length of the wristband that can be handled without tools.
- the clasp described in this patent is of the folding clasp type having two blades articulated between it by means of a rod passing through both, each blade carrying at its free end a fastener member to a bracelet.
- a first blade carries a hook for engaging in a hole in the second blade to cooperate with a trigger for locking the hook and thus the clasp in a closed state.
- the second blade comprises two parts slidable relative to each other within a certain predefined range, defining a step of adjustment of the useful length of the bracelet.
- a first of its two parts carries the hinge connecting it to the first blade while the second part carries the locking trigger.
- the hole in which the hook engages to lock the clasp has a length, in the longitudinal direction of the bracelet, corresponding to the sliding range between the two parts of the second blade.
- the trigger has a central portion defining two locations for the hook, in the longitudinal direction of the bracelet, corresponding to two different useful lengths of the bracelet.
- a control member including a pusher can actuate the trigger to release the hook and open the clasp.
- Adjustment devices comprising a specific locking member have also been proposed, alternatively, to avoid this type of inconvenience.
- a main object of the present invention is to overcome the drawbacks of known clasps of the prior art, by proposing a bracelet clasp comprising a device for adjusting the useful length of the bracelet of simple structure, preferably proposing a stable adjustment, including when the clasp is open, and easy handling.
- the adjustment device has a discrete structure, since it is actuated by the control member already provided to unlock the clasp, although it is distinct from the locking member of the clasp. , which further allows to adjust the length of the bracelet even when the clasp is in its closed state.
- the unlocking of the clasp is associated with a displacement of the control member by a first amplitude d1, the unlocking of the locking member adjustment by the lock being associated with a displacement of the control member of a second amplitude d2, d1 being less than d2.
- the adjustment member preferably comprises a frame carrying the first fastening member of the bracelet and at least one finger arranged to cooperate with the lock, the latter comprising a plate, adjacent to the frame and in which is formed a slot, following the longitudinal direction of the bracelet.
- the slot has at least two notches capable of cooperating with the finger in the closed state of the lock, to define two different respective useful lengths of the bracelet, whereas the finger is capable of sliding in the slot in the open state of the lock for move from one notch to another and change the useful length of the bracelet.

- the upper wall is formed by a cover comprising an upper surface carrying side walls having two holes for housing the ends of a bar of a bracelet strand, and at least one bearing surface against which the lower wall is held by means of the screw.
- control member comprises a pusher that can be moved in a direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the bracelet, in response to an action of the user, and that said pusher (213) is independent of said latch (212).
- the clasp comprises an additional control member, the control members being similar and symmetrical with reference to the longitudinal direction of the bracelet and that the adjustment device comprises an additional lock associated with the additional control member, the locks being similar and symmetrical with reference to the longitudinal direction of the bracelet, and an extra finger associated with the additional lock.
- the clasp is of the folding clasp type comprising at least two blades hinged together, of which a first blade comprises two uprights, symmetrical with reference to the longitudinal direction of the bracelet, inserted in a recess complementary to the second blade for placing the clasp in its closed position, by momentarily bringing the uprights against elastic return means, the outer lateral edge of each of the uprights cooperating with the corresponding inner edge of the recess to define a locking member of the clasp.
- each of said uprights carries one of said latches, and that said pushers bear against the latches and are slidably engaged through corresponding openings in the side walls of the hood and in which they are retained by edges that extend on both sides of the pushers
- the adjusting device comprises at least one elastic member exerting a force on the locks or tending to maintain or in its closed state or.
