Definitions

  • the invention relates to a watch provided with a bracelet comprising, between a first end and a second opposite end, a fastening and adjusting device of the bracelet.
  • the invention relates to the field of devices attached to the human body, in particular time measuring devices such as watches.
  • Bracelets and especially watchbands, are generally of dimensions adjusted to the morphology of the user. Setting ranges are limited. Few wristbands offer quick donning or withdrawal possibilities, while ensuring a good fit and support during wear.
  • Bracelets made entirely of elastic material do not always guarantee good performance, especially when the user, for example a sportsman, submits his watch or his bracelet to strong accelerations.
  • the invention aims to develop a watch equipped with a bracelet without clasp in the usual sense of the term, comprising a large range of adjustment, easy to put on and take off by the user, and suitable for professional or sports use.
  • a watch comprising at least one box which comprises horns, at a first side and a second side opposite the first side, and a bracelet formed by a flexible strand with a first end attached to the box and an opposite second end arranged to cooperate with a fastening device and adjusting the length of the bracelet.
  • the adjusting device comprises a clasp formed by a yoke and a lever between which the flexible strand slides, the clasp being hinged to the box by means of links defining an axis of rotation around which the lever can undergo a rotation to be able to move to the open position and in the closed position, the lever comprising an eccentric secured to the lever near the axis of rotation which is arranged to clamp the free end of the strand against the yoke and hold the bracelet when the lever is in closed position.
  • the object of the present invention by its various functional and structural aspects described above, makes it possible to obtain a watch that is easy to put on and adjust to the wearer's morphology.
  • the watch according to the invention comprises at least one box 1 which has horns, at a first side and a second side opposite the first side, and a bracelet formed by a flexible strand 2 with a fixed first end 20 to the box 1 and an opposite second end 21 arranged to cooperate with a fastening device and adjusting the length of the bracelet.
  • the fastening and adjusting device comprises a clasp formed by two elements, namely a lever 11 and a yoke 13 between which slides the flexible strand 2.
  • the clasp 10 is articulated to the box and the lever 11 can be rotated to be able to pass from an open position in which the flexible strand 2 is free to slide, to a closed position in which the flexible strand is immobilized.
  • the yoke 13 has a substantially rectangular shape and comprises two lateral flanges 130 and 131 arranged in the longitudinal direction, so as to form a passage for the flexible strand 2.
  • the width of the strand 2 is slightly less than the width of the yoke 13 to limit the friction of the strand 2 against the lateral flanges 130 and 131.
  • the lever 11 is articulated to the yoke 13 by one of its ends, and has a transverse axis of rotation.
  • this transverse axis of rotation coincides with the articulation of the clasp 10 to the box 1.
  • the clasp 10 can be articulated to the box 1 by means of connecting means such as a bar 14, a pump or any other element that can hold the clasp 10 to the box 1, between the horns 101 and 102, while providing an articulation allowing the lever 11 to pivot.
  • connecting means such as a bar 14, a pump or any other element that can hold the clasp 10 to the box 1, between the horns 101 and 102, while providing an articulation allowing the lever 11 to pivot.
  • the lever 11 comprises an eccentric 14 secured to the lever 11, the eccentric 14 being disposed under the lever, close to the axis of rotation.
  • Such an eccentric 14 can pinch the flexible strand 2 against the yoke 13 and thus immobilize the bracelet when the lever 11 is in the closed position.
  • the eccentric 14 comprises, over all or part of its surface, a knurling so as to provide a secure immobilization of the bracelet and prevent slippage of the latter.
  • the eccentric 14 comprises, over all or part of its surface, a toothing so as to immobilize the bracelet.
  • the first end 20 of the strand 2 is secured to the box 1 at a first side, between horns, for example by means of a bar.
  • the second end 21 of the strand 2 passes between the yoke 13 and the lever 11 in the open position.
  • the strand 2 forming the bracelet can be made of leather, rubber, fabric or synthetic material.
  • the second end 21 of the strand 2 comprises an extra thickness so that the strand 2 can not leave the passer inadvertently.
  • the invention is thus easy to handle with gloves, which may be necessary in the case of use in scuba diving for example.
