Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of watchmaking or jewelry. It relates more specifically to a device for attaching a bracelet to an object, in particular a watch case.
  • bracelets made of leather or metal, are attached to the lugs of a watch case, by means of a bar formed of a tube, in which are mounted two pistons movable in translation, and an elastic member disposed between said pistons and tending to drive them out of the tube.
  • Said bar is mounted in a housing provided for this purpose at one end of the bracelet, and the pistons are engaged in blind bores made facing each other in the lugs of the case.
  • a watch band comprising a strand and a fastening mechanism integrated into one end of the strand.
  • the clasp mechanism includes a concave member defining a channel at the end of the strand, and a closure plate configured to move between a first position in which the plate covers the channel, and a second position in which the plate is retracted to leaving at least part of the channel uncovered by the plate.
  • Such a fixing device comprises too many parts, which can impair the proper functioning of the device and involves replacing the strap when a part breaks.
  • the present invention makes it possible to overcome these drawbacks, by proposing a device for fixing a bracelet strand to a watch case, the device being arranged to be fixed to a bar, the bracelet strand being attached to the bar through fixing means.
  • the fixing means are formed by a support secured to the bracelet strand and a pull tab arranged to cooperate with said support so as to close the support, the support comprising a channel capable of receiving the bar, and they comprise a pair of magnets arranged on the support and the pull tab so as to hold the pull tab against the support and allow the pull tab to move from a closed position in which the bar is held in the channel to an open position in which the bar is free.
  • Such a fixing device is in particular intended to equip watches having non-magnetic properties.
  • the figures 1 to 3 illustrate a wristwatch as well as detailed views of the device for attaching the wristband to the watchcase 1 according to a preferred embodiment of the invention.
  • the strap attachment device to the watch case 1 comprises the strap strand 2 and attachment means 3.
  • the strap strand 2 can be made of textile material, rubber, leather, or even plastic material.
  • the fixing means are formed by a support 30 secured to the bracelet strand 2, a pull tab 31 arranged to cooperate with the support 30 so as to close the support 30, the support 30 comprising a channel 32 adapted to receive the strip 4, and in that they comprise a pair of magnets 300,310 arranged on the support 30 and the pull tab 31 so as to hold the pull tab 31 against the support 30 and allow the pull tab 31 to move from a closed position in which the bar 4 is held in the channel 32 to an open position in which the bar 4 is free.
  • the end of the bracelet strand 2 covers the fixing means 3 so that the latter are visible only from below and are therefore invisible when the watch is worn.
  • the wristband strand 2 is molded over the fixing means 3.
  • those skilled in the art can also consider gluing the strand to the fixing means.
  • the bracelet has at its end a portion 20 of complementary shape to the shape of the channel 32 to hide the latter. Those skilled in the art could also consider leaving the channel 32 visible.
  • the fixing means 3 comprise a support 30, which is preferably made of stainless steel, the support 30 comprising a channel 32 arranged to receive the bar 4, and to hold the bracelet strand on the latter.
  • the width of support 30 is slightly less than the width of bracelet strand 2, support 30 therefore being invisible when the watch is worn.
  • a pull tab 31 is provided to close the support 30, this closing pull tab is also made of stainless steel.
  • the pull tab 31 is mounted against the support 30 by means of guide rails 33 arranged on each side edge of the support 30, so that the pull tab 31 is flush with the support 30 and that it can move on the latter, the guide rails 33 starting at the end covered by bracelet strand 2 and stopping at the groove formed by channel 32.
  • the support 30 and the pull tab 31 each comprise a pair of magnets 300,310 to define a closed position when the pull tab covers the channel 32 and an open position when the pull tab 31 is retracted and releases the channel 32.
  • Recesses are respectively formed in the pull tab 31 and in the support 30 so as to receive the magnets.
  • the magnets 310 of the pull tab 31 and the magnets 300 of the support 30 are respectively of opposite poles and are positioned face to face when the pull tab 31 is in the closed position.
  • the magnets 300,310 thus form a lock and also allow the pull tab 31 to slide from the closed position to the open position when the wearer manipulates the pull tab 31, then to return to the closed position when the wearer releases the pull tab.
  • the pull tab 31 and the support 30 are made of a material insensitive to magnetism to avoid any interactions with the magnets.
  • the user manipulates the pull tab 31 by means of a manipulation button 34 and moves the pull tab 31 into the open position.
  • the magnets thus advantageously replace the springs conventionally used in the devices of the prior art, which makes it possible to reduce the number of components used and to eliminate the risk of a component breaking.
  • the handling button 34 is arranged to be actuated by the wearer and open the device.
  • the manipulation button 34 is in contact with the wearer's skin when the watch is worn.
  • the button 34 is made of a material identical to that of the pull tab 31, such as stainless steel for example, and forms an element in one piece with the latter.
  • the manipulation button 34 has polished edges to improve comfort when the watch is worn.
  • the strand comprises 2, on its face in contact with the wearer, a recess 21 of a shape complementary to that of the button and which is arranged to receive the manipulation button when the pull tab is in the open position, said recess acting as a stop when the pull tab is in the open position and thus defining the possible travel of the pull tab for passage to the open position.
  • the wearer manipulates pull tab 31 via button 34 and pulls or pushes on the latter to cause pull tab 31 to slide and make channel 32 accessible. The wearer then positions the bar 4 in the channel 32 and releases the button 34 so that the pull tab 31 returns to its closed position thanks to the magnets 300,310.
