Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a mechanical connection device between a bracelet and a mechanical part, in particular a mechanical part in the field of jewelry or watchmaking and more particularly between a watch strap and a component such as a watch case. , a clasp or another part of the watch strap.
  • watch straps are often attached to the horns of the case by means of a spring bar. Changing the strap involves detaching the strap from the watch case and therefore acting on the spring bar, which requires special tools that watch users generally do not have.
  • a change of strap therefore presents constraints and costs. This also prevents having a watch associated with several bracelets and changing the bracelet as the mood of the moment.
  • the watch case has two horns between which is placed a pivot of the bracelet.
  • the horns have recesses opening into the lower part of the horn, so as to allow the pivot of the horns to be released.
  • These recesses can be closed or opened by actuating a lock. When the lock is closed, the pivot is held between the horns, in the recesses.
  • the latch When the latch is open, the pivot can be separated from the horns by the opening opening into the lower part of the horn.
  • the locks are actuated by an actuating mechanism which is accessible from the side of the watch. It is not excluded that the locks move from the closed position to the open position while the user is wearing the watch. Such opening of the locks can take place, for example, following a displacement of the mechanism for actuating the locks, when this mechanism is hooked in particular by a suit. Opening of the locks can occur when the watch is on the user's wrist. This opening can also occur following improper closing of the lock or for other reasons. In such a case, there is a great risk that the pivot will become detached from the watch and that the latter will fall from the wrist of the user.
  • the bracelet it would be desirable for the bracelet not to be able to unintentionally separate from the watch when the watch is handled without being worn on a user's wrist.
  • the bracelet cannot be badly positioned during its change, which would present the risk that the user thinks he has fixed his bracelet correctly when in reality it is badly placed.
  • This embodiment has the drawback that the watch case must imperatively include a bar forming the support zone. This greatly limits the aesthetic aspects that it is possible to give to the watch. Furthermore, when the watch is handled without being worn on the wrist, there is a risk that one end of the bar, or even both ends, unintentionally come out of the horn and that the bracelet is in an undesired position. . In addition, the end of the bracelet opposite to that which comprises the bar must be introduced into the housing defined by the lugs and the bearing zone. This implies that the width of the elements of the bracelet at this end should be less than the width between the lugs. This makes this system unusable with a bracelet having a conventional buckle or a folding clasp type closure. Indeed, these elements practically always have a width greater than the maximum width of the bracelet.
  • the document WO 2018/127779 describes a device making it possible to connect a bracelet to a clasp in a removable manner, that is to say in such a way that the bracelet can be separated from the clasp in order to change the clasp.
  • the bracelet is fixed in a conventional manner, by means of a spring bar, to a connecting piece arranged between the conventional clasp and the conventional bracelet.
  • This intermediate part comprises a pin having a flat, cooperating with a groove of the clasp.
  • the pin In a first position of the connecting piece relative to the clasp and to the bracelet, the pin cannot be removed from the connecting piece and the bracelet is integral with the clasp.
  • This first position corresponds to the position taken by the various components when the watch is worn by a user.
  • the connecting piece is pivoted relative to the clasp and the bracelet is pivoted relative to the connecting piece. In this second position, the pin can be moved in the connecting piece and the bracelet can be removed from the clasp.
  • This mechanism is not suitable for connecting a bracelet to a watch case. It is only intended for use with a clasp. Due to the presence of an intermediate connecting piece, it could not be placed on a watch case. Thus, this mechanism does not make it possible to replace a watch strap, but only to change the clasp. Furthermore, if the watch is handled without being placed on the wrist of a user, the involuntary separation of the bracelet and the clasp is prevented by an element of this clasp, only when the clasp is closed. In the open position of the clasp, there is a risk of involuntary separation of the bracelet and the clasp.
  • the document FR 2 758 951 describes a watch in which a bracelet can be removed from a watch case without special tools.
  • a bracelet is described comprising a plate provided with four lugs.
  • the watch case has lugs each with two hollows. When the bracelet is attached to the watch case, two lugs are inserted into two L-shaped hollows made in two opposite lugs of the watch case. The other two pins are introduced into the other two recesses and act as a lock.
  • connection device does not impose a particular aesthetic on the watch case, so that this mechanism can be used on watches having aspects chosen by the designer of the watch and not imposed by constraints related to this device.
  • the present invention proposes to provide such a mechanical connection device, which allows a user to very simply separate the two mechanical parts, without tools and without complex handling, and which at the same time guarantees that the mechanical parts do not separate from each other. unintentionally or accidentally, in particular when the mechanical parts to be linked are part of a wristwatch and when the wristwatch is worn by a user, but also in the case where the watch is handled by a user without the latter the door on his wrist.
  • a mechanical connection device between a bracelet and a mechanical part, in particular a component of a wristwatch, this bracelet comprising a pivot and a stopper, said mechanical part comprising a member for retaining said pivot, this member retainer being arranged to hold said pivot on the mechanical part in a first configuration and to release this pivot from the mechanical part in a second configuration;
  • this mechanical connection device being characterized in that it further comprises a lock movable between a closed position in which it maintains said pivot on said mechanical part and an open position in which the pivot can be released from said mechanical part;
  • the latch comprises an elastic constraining element arranged to constrain said latch in its closed position;
  • this lock comprises at least one inclined zone arranged so that the application of a force to this inclined zone in one direction generates a displacement of the lock in its open position, in another direction;
  • this lock comprises at least one bearing zone arranged so that the application of a force to this bearing zone generates a displacement of the lock in its open position; and in that the mechanical part comprises a stop
  • the aims of the invention are also achieved by a timepiece comprising a mechanical connection device as described above.
  • the mechanical linkage device makes it possible to link in a simple and efficient manner, various mechanical components and in particular various components of a watch.
  • the components which can be interconnected are in particular a bracelet with a watch case, a bracelet with a clasp or links of a bracelet.
  • This mechanical connection device can be opened easily, without tools and without special know-how, so as to separate the mechanical parts from one another.
  • this device makes it possible in particular to change the watch strap very easily.
  • the bracelet can also be linked to a clasp which makes it possible to change the clasp or to keep the same clasp while changing the bracelet.
  • the bracelet can of course be linked by one of its ends to a clasp and by its other end to the watch case. This can be particularly interesting since the clasp is generally a part having an aesthetic appearance suited to the aesthetic appearance of the case and may have a significant value. It is then possible to easily change the bracelet while keeping the same clasp.
  • the mechanical connection device is also particularly simple to use and particularly reliable. Indeed, a simple pressure on the bracelet in a determined direction makes it possible to bind this bracelet to the mechanical part. No other part should be handled when fitting a new bracelet. In addition, the bracelet cannot be placed in an intermediate position between a release position and a closed position. Thus, if a user has placed the bracelet in the wrong place and the latter is not correctly fixed to the mechanical part, it will not be fixed at all to this mechanical part and the user will notice it immediately. If the bracelet is fixed to the mechanical part, it will necessarily be fixed correctly and securely.
  • the mechanical connection device is also particularly safe in the sense that the mechanical parts cannot become detached when the watch is worn by a user, even in the event of sudden movement, friction or improper closing of the system.
  • this mechanical connection device is also advantageous because of the fact that its construction is simple and does not involve a large number of complex parts to be machined or assembled.
  • An advantage of the invention comes in particular from the fact that the bracelet does not include a moving part. It can therefore be produced relatively simply, without increasing the cost of manufacture compared to a conventional bracelet.
  • the moving parts or those which require more complex manufacture are in principle produced on the other component to be linked to the bracelet, in particular on the clasp and / or the case.
  • connection device thus makes it possible to have several bracelets and to choose the bracelet to use at a given time, according to his desire.
  • the mechanical connection device 10 is intended in particular to link a bracelet 11, in particular a wristwatch bracelet, to a mechanical part 12, in particular a component of a wristwatch.

  • this strap is linked at least to the case of the watch by means of the device of the invention.
  • This bracelet can for example be closed in a conventional manner with a pin buckle.
  • the bracelet can also be connected to a clasp, for example of the butterfly type. In this case, the bracelet can be replaced while the clasp is retained.
