Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a wristwatch band made of rubber such as urethane or soft synthetic resin, and particularly to a wristwatch band made of a plurality of blocks.

Conventionally, watch bands made of rubber such as urethane or soft synthetic resin have been used for diver watches and the like.

This watch band was molded in one piece, and unlike ordinary metal bands, the pieces were not connected with screws or the like, and there was no type that required removing the pieces to adjust the length.

The reason for this is that the material itself is flexible and fits relatively well on the arm, so there was no need for a bridge connection structure, and there was no need to form small diameter screw holes in the bridge made of rubber or soft synthetic resin. Even if it were possible, there would be problems with the strength of the screw holes and the cost of forming them, so it was impossible to connect the pieces with screws.

For this reason, the length of the integrally molded band itself cannot be shortened, so the length has been determined in advance based on the arm of a standard user.

Therefore, a buckle with a claw is attached to one end of the band, and multiple holes are provided in the other band in the longitudinal direction so that the length of the band can be adjusted using the buckle when the band is worn on the arm. I had to configure it.

However, in cases where the bands are connected by hooking the claw of the buckle on one band into the hole on the other band, a strong force is concentrated around the hole in the band. Cracks sometimes occurred.

In particular, diver watches are worn on the cuffs of wetsuits, and the tightening force is often increased to cope with changes in water pressure due to diving, and the above-mentioned cracks are more likely to occur than in ordinary watches.

Furthermore, it is necessary to set the band with the hole longer than the other band, and there is also the inconvenience that the pair of bands must be molded separately.

Furthermore, with the diversification of fashion in recent years, more and more women prefer to carry diver watches. However, there were no bands to fit women's thin arms, and most of them had fixed designs.

The present invention solves the drawbacks of the conventional example by connecting a plurality of blocks with a pin provided with a ring-shaped protrusion to form a band. The purpose of this design is to allow the wearer to freely adjust the height of the watch and to improve the ease of wearing it on the arm.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing a state in which the length of the wristwatch band shown in FIG. 1 is being adjusted. Reference numerals 1 and 2 indicate band bodies, which each have attachment parts 1a and 2a for attaching to a wristwatch case and adjustment parts 1b and 2b for adjusting the length of the band.

Although the attachment portions 1a and 2a in this embodiment are band-shaped, they may also be hook-shaped.

The adjustment parts 1b and 2b each include a plurality of blocks 3 made of rubber such as urethane or soft synthetic resin.
The structure is such that they are connected by a pin 4 made of plastic or metal.

The block 3 has holes 3a' extending in the width direction of the band.
three ends 3a, 3 having 3b', 3c'respectively;
It forms a substantially V-shape consisting of blocks 3b and 3c, and the end 3c of each adjacent block 3 is connected to the end 3a, 3b.
It is set to fit between

The pins 4 are connected to the ends 3a and 3b of one block 3.
At the same time, through holes 3a' and 3b', holes 3a and 3b
Ends 3 of adjacent blocks 3 interposed
It is inserted so as to also penetrate hole 3c' of c.
Each block 3 is thereby connected. When adjusting the length of the band main body 1, push out the desired pin 4, release the connection between two adjacent blocks in the adjustment part 1b, and insert another block 3 there, or insert another pin 4 there. By pushing out and removing the block 3, the length of the band body 1 can be lengthened or shortened.

The pin 4 used in this embodiment has a ring-shaped protrusion 4a in a part thereof, and the diameter of the protrusion 4a is the same as that of the holes 3a', 3b', and 3 of the block 3.
Since the pin 4 is set to be larger than the diameter of c', the pin 4 inserted into the block 3 is held by the elasticity of the block 3 itself and will not come out unless pushed out manually.

According to the present invention, the length of the watch band made of rubber or soft synthetic resin can be adjusted freely, so it can fit any wrist size. We can provide watch bands.

In addition, the blocks do not overlap each other and are connected by a pin with a ring-shaped protrusion, so they can rotate freely, and furthermore, the rotation of this block is controlled by the block itself. Since the elasticity is moderately suppressed, it is easy to wear on the arm, and the feeling of wearing is extremely excellent.

Furthermore, the length adjustable clasp 5 as shown in the figure
In combination with this, the length of the band can be finely adjusted, and the band can be configured to fit more comfortably on the arm.

As described above, the present invention provides a watch band with excellent practical effects.
