Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for adjusting the length of a bracelet, particularly adapted to a bracelet provided with a folding clasp for a wristwatch, arranged between two ends of the bracelet, to form with it an endless link of which the length can vary between two dimensions. It also relates to a clasp and a bracelet as such, incorporating such a setting device, as well as a wristwatch as such comprising such a clasp or bracelet.
  • a common solution of the state of the art is to provide an intermediate clasp type element disposed between the two bracelet strands, which is always secured to the ends of these two strands.
  • Such a clasp occupies two positions: a closed position, intended for the wearing of the watch, in which the bracelet and the clasp extend around the circumference of the wrist with a total length allowing the wristwatch to be held, and a open position that increases the length of the bracelet and the clasp, by separating the two ends of the two strands of the bracelet, without detaching the clasp, to allow the passage of the hand and the removal of the watch.
  • the two strands of the bracelet are not disconnected, which minimizes the risk falling from the watch.
  • the length of each strand of bracelet is chosen to correspond to the periphery of the wrist of the wearer in the closed position of the clasp.
  • EP2721943 describes a bracelet comprising a succession of links each comprising three stitches and two stitches respectively

  • Each link comprises several meshes, juxtaposed in a transverse direction, comprising for example one or more mesh (s) of center inserted (s) between edge meshes.
  • Such a set is for example represented on the figure 8 .
  • the adjustment device according to this embodiment is arranged at the end of a bracelet strand, at a clasp of which only a lid 2 is shown in phantom on the Figures 1 to 3s , to leave visible all the components of the adjustment device.

These three meshes are interconnected by at least one transverse axis 12 passing through openings of these three meshes. These last have the same length and extend parallel in the longitudinal direction, and their two longitudinal ends are positioned at the same level.

They are positioned to interpose between respectively the meshes 10a, 10b and 10a, 10c of the first link 10. Their end is mounted on an axis 12 connecting the three meshes 10a, 10b, 10c of the first link 10, in an articulated manner, leaving the two links 10, 11 free in relative rotation.

  • the bracelet strand obtained is thus composed of five meshes juxtaposed parallel to the width of the bracelet, obtained by a succession of interposed links of respectively three meshes and two meshes, the two meshes being offset longitudinally with respect to said three adjacent meshes.
  • This construction results in a very harmonious aesthetic appearance, in particular because of a large number of meshes articulated between them, and in particular center meshes of small width.
  • this large number of stitches makes it possible to achieve a great wearing comfort of this bracelet, since the articulated stitches marry at best the contour of the wrist. This comfort decreases if the mesh size increases and / or the number of meshes is reduced.
  • a regulating device in particular a comfort adjustment, of its length, shaped to allow a slight adjustment of the length of the bracelet, in addition to a conventional initial setting, as explained above.

  • the end link 8 is here in the form of a single mesh.
  • the end link 8 has a first bore, at the first end 8i, provided to receive the axis 7 of the adjusting link. It has a width L8 less than the width L of the bracelet and clasp, so that its first end 8i carrying the first bore can be housed between the two edge meshes 6b, 6c of the adjusting link 6 when mounted around of the axis 7.
  • This width L8 is equal to the sum of the widths of the three center meshes 11a, 10a, 11b of the bracelet.
  • the end link 8 has a second bore, at a second end 8j, provided to receive the second axis 9, particularly visible on the figure 7 , in order to create the link with the link 10 consisting of three meshes 10a, 10b, 10c forming the end of the bracelet strand, which is bound.
  • the end link 8 has at least one longitudinally extending cutout 8e, which is provided to receive a center mesh 10a of a link 10 of the bracelet strand, as will be detailed by the following.

  • This wall 8d thus forms a narrowing at the entrance of the housing formed by the transverse cut 8c, the size of which is calculated to be slightly smaller than the corresponding dimension of the part of the axis 5 which must engage in the housing.
  • This wall 8d thus serves as attachment means for the axis 5 when it is engaged elastically in this housing in short configuration of the adjustment device.
  • This transversal cut 8c comes from more truncating the second end 8j of the end link, the two parts 8a, 8b laterally around the cut 8e take the form of half meshes 11a, 11b, cut at their center by a transverse median plane.

  • the figure 2 represents an intermediate configuration, in which the adjusting link 6 began its rotation about its first axis 5, which represents an axis of articulation of the adjustment link relative to the cover of the clasp. In this illustration, it has made about a quarter turn, thus positioning its second axis 7 at the same longitudinal level as the axis 5, superimposed under this axis 5 relative to the lid 2.
  • the figure 3 illustrates finally the long configuration of the bracelet, obtained when the adjusting link 6 has finalized its rotation about the axis 5, the second axis 7 returning to the same height as the axis 5, abutting under the cover 2.
