Definitions
- This invention relates to a pen watchband for watches, and more particularly to a flexible watchband body having a writing instrument integrally incorporated therein for practical usage.
- pen and watch are indispensable articles required by everyone. It would be very inconvenient if either one of them were not readily available.
- an electronic pen watch composed of a liquid-crystal display (LCD) watch module and a ball-point pen has been developed for meeting the every day requirements of individuals.
- LCD liquid-crystal display
- a ball-point pen has been developed for meeting the every day requirements of individuals.
- a watch is usually worn not only for keeping time but also for ornamentation, the unattractive features of the electronic pen watch certainly cannot satisfy this requirement.
- a novel pen watchband which comprises a watchband body made of flexible material with a front portion and a rear portion, a plurality of flexible metal lines integrally inbedded in parallel in the watchband body, an adaptable writing instrument with a ball-point tip at one end and an open section at the other integrally incorporated into the front portion of the watchband, a pivot joint means provided on a middle portion of the watchband body for being connected with a known wrist watch, a retaining means with a guide passage movably disposed at the rear portion of the watchband body for positioning the ball-point tip of the writing instrument, and a fastening means separately arranged at each end of the watchband; thereby, pen and watch can be worn on the wrist for convenient use.
- This invention resides in the incorporation of a writing instrument with a watchband by which a wrist watch together with a writing instrument can be worn on the wrist.
- This invention further resides in the structure of the pen watchband which can be made in either a continuous strap or separately paired straps with pivot joint means provided thereon for making connections with a known wrist watch.
- This invention resides further still in the structure of the pen watchband with a plurality of flexible metal lines integrally inbedded in the watchband body so that during writing, the watchband body can be straightened for the purpose of holding it in hand.
- This invention resides further still in the structure of the pen watchband of which the ball-point tip of the writing instrument protrudes from the free end of the front portion of the watchband for writing purpose while the ball-point tip can also be adjustably positioned in the guide passage of the retaining means as a safety precaution when the pen watchband is worn on the wrist.
- the preferred embodiment of a pen watchband comprises: a watchband body 2 with a front portion and a rear portion; a pen 4 integrally incorporated into the front portion of the watchband body 2; a pair of pivot joints 20 and 21 integrally formed on a middle portion for making connections with a known wrist watch 1 (it is preferable to select a digital watch enclosed in a plastic case for making a better match with the watchband body 2); fastening means 3 separately arranged at each end of the watchband body 2; and a retaining ring 5 with a guide passage 50, as shown in Fig. 2, movably provided around a the rear portion of the watchband body 2.
- the watchband body 2 is made of flexible material (it is to be noted that the flexibility of the watchband body 2 is of some hardness so that it is suitable to be held in hand for writing operation) having a plurality of flexible metal lines 29 integrally inbedded in the front portion and an air inlet 42 provided in the upper end thereof.
- the pen 4 including a pliable tube 41 with writing ink contained therein, a ball-point tip 40 at one end and an open section at the other, is also integrally incorporated into the front portion of the watchband body 2 between the metal lines 29 thereof with the ball-point tip 40 projecting at the free end of the front portion and the open section located below the air inlet 42.
- each one of the pivot joints 20 and 21 has a pin hole 23, 24 in the center through which the wrist watch 1 is combined with the watchband body 2 by using a pair of pivot pins 23 and 24 respectively disposed in the related orifices 11 of the watch lugs 10.
- a ridge line 28 slightly protrudes upward along a central line of the watchband body 2 as shown in Fig. 1A.
- the fastening means 3 includes: a friction-type buckling device composed of a fixed member 32 for being sleevingly coupled with the front portion of the watchband body 2 and an adjusting member 33 pivotally coupled with the fixed member 32 for being adjustably set in catch with the fixed member 32 along the front portion of the watchband body 2; and a "velcro" device composed of a "hook” member 30 fixed at the rear end of the watchband body 2 and a “loop” member 31 disposed on top of the fixed member 33 for being adjustably coupled with the "hook” member 30 along with the friction-type buckling device, which can be positioned along the front portion of the watchband body 2 according to the wrist size of the user.
- a friction-type buckling device composed of a fixed member 32 for being sleevingly coupled with the front portion of the watchband body 2 and an adjusting member 33 pivotally coupled with the fixed member 32 for being adjustably set in catch with the fixed member 32 along the front portion of the watchband body 2
- the combined pen watchband body 2 can be worn on the wrist by first, bending the front portion of the watchband body 2 on the wrist, then adjusting the adjusting member 33 according to one's wrist size, and finally, putting the "hook” member 30 over the “loop” member 31 and pressing them together for proper connection around the wrist with the free end of the watchband body 2 being inserted into the retaining ring 5 and the ball-point tip 40 located in the guide passage 50 for safety puupose.
- FIG. 3 there is shown an alternative example of the watchband body 2, which is made of the same material and provided with the same pivot joints 20, 21 and fastening means 3 as shown in Fig. 1 except that the watchband body 2 is separately formed in two parts. Meanwhile, combination and wearing operations of the alternative example are also the same as that described and illustrated hereinbefore with reference to Fig. 2.
