Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a decorative metal band, particularly a watch band, which is constructed of a mesh body made of mini ropes.

Conventional metal watch bands are made by ○A solid wire wound tightly in the right or left direction and made into a spring state to form a fence (net), ○B made by interlocking or deforming two or more pieces of different diameters. ○ Those that are wound into a coil shape and pressed around a solid material;
○2 Various chains were placed parallel to each other in the longitudinal direction and were spot welded, and ○e) Metal pieces formed into a certain shape were molded into a block shape and connected. However, there is a drawback that each band does not change easily, resulting in a lack of variation, and in order to make variations, it is necessary to prepare a wide variety of materials, which is not suitable for mass production and increases costs. It was hot.

The present invention was devised in view of these conventional drawbacks, and is characterized in that it is composed of a flexible mesh body made by knitting mini ropes into a mesh shape.

Therefore, by combining various wires and strands of the mini-ropes constituting the mesh, or by changing the way the strands are twisted, the variations of the decorative band can be further expanded.

To explain the embodiment of the present invention with reference to the drawings, reference numeral 1 denotes a wire formed by twisting together a large number of spring stainless steel wires, non-ferrous wires, steel wires, precious metal wires, synthetic resin wires, etc., and the center of the wire 1 is A plurality of strands 2 made by twisting together a plurality of strands 2 are further twisted together to form a mini-rope 3, and the mini-ropes 3, 3 are knitted one by one to form a mesh body 5.

In this case, in addition to one mini rope 3, one
The mesh body 5a can be formed in various patterns by combining various combinations such as a book and two pieces, one piece and three pieces, furthermore, two pieces and two pieces, two pieces and three pieces, etc.

The core 1a provided at the center of the strand 1 further increases the strength of the mini rope 3. Reference numeral 6 denotes a flexible backing member attached to the inside of the mesh body 5, that is, the side to be adhered to the arm, and is used to prevent the mesh body 5 from being cut due to bending and to protect the arm. Furthermore, it is of course possible to increase the strength of the mesh body 5 by compressing the outer surface by press working, making the upper surface flat, and making the periphery angular. A decorative piece (not shown) is attached to the surface.

Furthermore, the pattern of the mini-rope itself constituting the mesh body can be varied in various ways by changing the number of strands, changing the twisting method, or twisting strands or strands of different diameters together. , variations can be expanded. If necessary, it is also possible to use a mini-rope with a jacket (not shown) coated on the outside of the mini-rope.

Note that the term "mini rope" refers to a rope that has extremely high tensile strength and is constructed by twisting a large number of thin thread-like steel wires or other materials, and has a rope diameter of 3 m/m or less.

As described above, the mini-rope of the present invention has a core at the center of the strands to increase the strength of the mini-rope, and the same or different numbers of mini-ropes are braided to form a mesh body. Since the material can be made into various variations, it is possible to reduce costs by mass-producing the material, and it is also possible to easily provide bands with designs that match the user's preferences.
By reinforcing this mesh body, it is possible to prevent it from being cut during use, which has the effect of making it possible to use it safely.
