Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device of articulation between two links of a bracelet, these links being provided with slots each pierced with a hole, these holes being arranged in a row to receive a hinge bar when the slots are nested within each other.
- the bracelet is also formed by a series of links articulated around pivot bars passing through formed holes in the links.
- Each bar is finished at a end by a split head and has at the other end a hole provided with a thread and a constriction reducing the section of the hole at this point.
- a screw with a head, a thread and a groove can be inserted into the hole of the bar then forcibly screwed until the throat enters the groove of the screw. In this position, the screw is locked thanks to the radial elasticity of the bar while being able to be extracted from the hole if necessary.
- the present invention in addition to meeting the definition credits exposed in the first paragraph of this description, is remarkable in that the niche forming one side of the bracelet is provided with a through hole by which the bar can be inserted and a plug is screwed into said through hole for imprison the bar, said bar having side of the plug a hole with a throttle reducing the section of the hole in one place, this hole serving as a housing for an end cap, this end piece having a cylindrical part whose cross section is smaller than the throat section and a terminal bead whose section is larger than the section of said throttle but smaller than the section drilling, said bead being located beyond said constriction when the plug is screwed into the hole crossing.
- the bracelet is composed of links of which two links 1 and 2 are shown at FIG. 1.
- the link 1 is provided with slots 9 and 11, while the link 2 is provided with slots 8, 10 and 12.
- Slots 9 and 11 are drilled with holes 4 and 6 respectively, while slots 8, 10 and 12 are drilled with holes 3, 5 and 7 respectively.
- all these holes are arranged in row to receive a bar 13 when the slots are nested within each other. We have seen that this bar can be retained in different ways in the holes of the slots.
- slot 8 forming one of the sides 14 of the bracelet is provided a through hole 3 through which the bar 13 can be introduced.
- a plug 15 is screwed into hole 3 to imprison the bar 13.
- the bar 13 has, from the side of the plug 15, a bore 16 provided with a throttle 17 reducing the cross section of the hole 16 in one place (see also Figure 2 where the bar 13 is presented more strong scale and where the constructive details affecting said bar are more apparent).
- Drilling 16 of the bar 13 serves as a housing for a nozzle 18 terminating the plug 15 as is very apparent in Figure 3 which is an enlarged representation of the cap already shown in Figure 1.
- the tip 18 of the plug 15 first presents a cylindrical part 20 whose section is smaller that the section of the throttle 17 of the bar 13, then a terminal bead 21 whose cross section is more large than the same choke section 17 but more small than the section of said hole.
- the slot 12 forming the other side 22 of the bracelet could also be equipped with a through hole 7.
- FIGS 1 and 3 also show that the plug 15 is provided with a screw head 23 with overhang 24, this overhang bearing on a shoulder 25 made in the hole crossing 3 of the niche 8. This arrangement allows the blocking of the plug 15. Without this, it will be prudent to provide the thread of the plug 15 with a thread locking adhesive.
- the same figures 1 and 3 also show that the terminal bead 21 is extended by a cone 26, this cone facilitating the passage of the bead 21 beyond strangulation.
- the plug of the present invention does not have a throat necessarily assigned to lodge in a constriction of the bar. Therefore, it there is no risk of tightening the links on each others, the cylindrical part 20 of the end piece 18 being long enough to allow the bar to move freely in the longitudinal direction.
- hole 7 we will assemble everything first the plug 15 to the bar 13 and we will introduce the whole in the holes of the links, then we will screw finally the cork.
- hinge device connecting two links The invention is not limited to these links and the joint could connect, for example, horns a watch case on the first link of the bracelet or another link to a clasp.
