Description
L'invention se rapporte à un bracelet formé d'éléments articulés entre eux, en particulier de maillons dont au moins certains sont réalisés dans un matériau dur. Elle se rapporte également à une pièce, dont une pièce d'horlogerie telle qu'une montre ou encore une pièce de bijouterie, comprenant ledit bracelet.The invention relates to a bracelet formed of elements articulated together, in particular of links of which at least some are made of a hard material. It also relates to a part, including a timepiece such as a watch or even a piece of jewelry, comprising said bracelet.
Dans l'industrie horlogère ou en bijouterie, des matériaux variés sont utilisés pour la fabrication de bracelets d'aspect divers. Il est en particulier connu de fabriquer des bracelets dans un matériau dur. Par matériau dur, on entend les matériaux présentant une dureté Vickers supérieure à 1200 HV. Ces matériaux durs sont, par exemple, de la céramique telle que du nitrure de silicium, de l'oxyde de zirconium ou de l'oxyde d'aluminium. Il peut également s'agir de cermets. Les matériaux durs sont utilisés pour leurs propriétés mécaniques, en particulier parce qu'ils se rayent difficilement.In the watchmaking or jewelry industry, various materials are used to make bracelets of various appearances. It is particularly known to make bracelets from a hard material. By hard material we mean materials having a Vickers hardness greater than 1200 HV. These hard materials are, for example, ceramics such as silicon nitride, zirconium oxide or aluminum oxide. It can also be cermets. Hard materials are used for their mechanical properties, particularly because they are difficult to scratch.
Le désavantage de ces matériaux est leur fragilité avec un risque accru de casse lors de l'usinage et lorsque les maillons du bracelet se déplacent voire entrent en collision les uns par rapport aux autres lors de la manipulation du bracelet.The disadvantage of these materials is their fragility with an increased risk of breakage during machining and when the links of the bracelet move or even collide with each other when handling the bracelet.
Le but de la présente invention est de pallier les inconvénients précités en proposant un assemblage entre maillons permettant de maîtriser l'amplitude de rotation des maillons de manière à éviter les collisions.The aim of the present invention is to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks by proposing an assembly between links making it possible to control the amplitude of rotation of the links so as to avoid collisions.
Pour ce faire, les tiges de liaison qui relient les différents rangs du bracelet comportent à chaque extrémité deux butées qui prennent respectivement appui sur un insert logé au sein des maillons latéraux qui encadrent les maillons centraux. Ces deux butées limitent le déplacement angulaire des maillons latéraux par rapport à la tige de liaison.To do this, the connecting rods which connect the different rows of the bracelet have at each end two stops which respectively support on an insert housed within the lateral links which frame the central links. These two stops limit the angular movement of the lateral links relative to the connecting rod.
Plus spécifiquement, la présente invention se rapporte à un bracelet comprenant :
- un premier rang avec au moins un maillon central muni de deux trous traversants, dits trous du maillon central,
- un deuxième rang et un troisième rang disposés respectivement de part et d'autre du premier rang, le deuxième rang et le troisième rang comprenant chacun au moins un maillon latéral, ledit maillon latéral étant muni de deux trous, dits trous du maillon latéral, avec un trou du maillon latéral du deuxième rang aligné sur un trou du maillon central du premier rang et sur un trou du maillon latéral du troisième rang pour former un ensemble avec trois trous alignés,
- une tige de liaison positionnée dans les trois trous alignés, ladite tige de liaison étant montée fixe par rapport au maillon central du premier rang et formant un axe autour duquel le maillon latéral du deuxième rang et du troisième rang est monté pivotant,
- a first row with at least one central link provided with two through holes, called central link holes,
- a second row and a third row arranged respectively on either side of the first row, the second row and the third row each comprising at least one side link, said side link being provided with two holes, called side link holes, with a hole in the side link of the second row aligned with a hole in the central link of the first row and with a hole in the side link of the third row to form a set with three aligned holes,
- a connecting rod positioned in the three aligned holes, said connecting rod being mounted fixed relative to the central link of the first row and forming an axis around which the lateral link of the second row and the third row is pivotally mounted,
Ainsi, selon l'invention, les axes servant de jonctions et de pivots entre les maillons sont utilisés pour limiter l'amplitude de rotation des maillons et absorber tout ou partie des contraintes lors de la mise en butée. Ces axes ainsi que l'insert sont protégés de l'extérieur par les maillons et peuvent dès lors être réalisés dans un matériau moins dur tel que l'acier ou un alliage de titane, ce qui facilite leur usinage.Thus, according to the invention, the axes serving as junctions and pivots between the links are used to limit the amplitude of rotation of the links and absorb all or part of the stresses during abutment. These axes as well as the insert are protected from the outside by the links and can therefore be made of a less hard material such as steel or a titanium alloy, which facilitates their machining.
En outre, le maillon central comporte une partie protubérante, aussi dite zone de couvrance, qui s'étend dans les deuxième et troisième rangs entre les maillons latéraux. Cette partie protubérante du maillon central ainsi que le maillon latéral ont une forme particulière qui apporte une touche esthétique au bracelet sans qu'il n'y ait de contact entre la partie protubérante et les maillons latéraux lors du pivotement du maillon central. Cette absence de contact permet d'éviter une mise sous contrainte des maillons réalisés dans le matériau dur.In addition, the central link includes a protruding part, also called coverage zone, which extends in the second and third rows between the side links. This protruding part of the central link as well as the side link have a particular shape which brings an aesthetic touch to the bracelet without there being any contact between the protruding part and the side links when the central link pivots. This absence of contact makes it possible to avoid placing the links made in the hard material under stress.
En conclusion, l'assemblage du bracelet selon l'invention permet de maîtriser la plage de mobilité des maillons d'un bracelet en matériau dur avec un design incluant des zones de couvrance afin d'assurer sa solidité en évitant les collisions ou la mise en contraintes de parties fragiles en matériau dur lors de sa manipulation.In conclusion, the assembly of the bracelet according to the invention makes it possible to control the range of mobility of the links of a bracelet made of hard material with a design including coverage zones in order to ensure its solidity by avoiding collisions or damage. stresses on fragile parts of hard material during handling.
