Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] (Industrial application field) The present invention relates to an accessory band.

(Prior art) For example, precious stones, glass, etc. are used in women's watch bands.
The use of materials such as wood is necessary in order to harmonize with the watch body, but these materials generally have poor workability and problems in terms of strength, so To connect the pieces, either make a through hole in each piece and pass a string through the holes to connect them (Refer to Utility Model Publication No. 145667/1983), or fix the pieces on a connecting piece made of metal or the like. (Utility Model Application Publication No. 57-166717, Publication No. 49-54474)
Alternatively, it is necessary to connect each piece to each other via a mounting plate provided on the side surface (Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 169112/1983).

However, when the pieces are connected using strings, they give an unsightly appearance when the pieces are transparent, and when the pieces are fixed to the metal pieces, diamonds etc. are used to connect the pieces. Even if a point-type type with transparent pieces is effective, it is not possible to take advantage of the characteristics of the material such as the see-through effect if it uses transparent pieces, and furthermore, if it is connected via a side mounting plate, it will not work. However, it has various disadvantages such as a chain-like appearance, making it unsuitable as a decorative band.

(Purpose) The present invention was made in view of the above problem, and its purpose is to eliminate the need for special processing on the decorative pieces, and moreover, to create a material with a single-shaped connecting piece. An object of the present invention is to provide a novel decorative band that can be combined while taking advantage of its unique characteristics.

(Means for Achieving the Object) In other words, in order to achieve the object, the present invention has a connecting piece in which ears are provided on both sides of the main body so as to be biased toward one side in the thickness direction, and a connecting piece is provided with ears facing outward for one piece. , the other piece is turned face down and fixed to both ends of the piece, and the above-mentioned front-facing connecting pieces and backward-facing connecting pieces are alternately adjacent to each other, so that a rod member is attached to each overlapped ear. This is an accessory band made by inserting the piece through the piece and joining a large number of the pieces mentioned above.

(Example) The details of the present invention will be explained below based on the illustrated example.

The drawing shows an example of a decorative watch band according to the present invention, and reference numeral 1 in the drawing shows a holding hole 2 formed in the main body that matches the cross-sectional shape of the piece 9 to be supported. It is a connecting piece with ears 3, 3 that are biased toward one side in the thickness direction on both sides, and the adjacent connecting pieces 1,
When the ears 3, 3 are placed on top of each other with the ears 3, 3 placed on top of each other, these connecting pieces 1, 1 are formed so as to be joined on the same plane, and each ear 3, 3 is provided with a support. A hole 4 for inserting a decorative pipe 6 is formed at a required distance from the main body so that each of the pieces 9 can be bent to a required curvature without contacting each other.

Each of the connecting pieces 1 configured in this way is fitted into the end of the piece 9 with one piece 9 facing up and the other piece 9 facing down. It is fixed with a mounting agent, and the connecting piece 1 attached face up to the end of the piece 9 in this way and the connecting piece 1 attached backwards are made adjacent to each other so that the ears 3, 3 match each other. After combining, each insertion hole 4
By passing the pipe 6 through the pipe 6 and fixing both ends with screws 7, a large number of piece pieces 9 can be combined through the pipe 6 into one continuous decorative watch band.

In the embodiment described above, adhesive is used to fix the piece 9 and the connecting piece 1, but while a screw hole is provided in the connecting piece 1 on the inside of the band, the piece 9 It is also possible to provide a recess on the back side and fix the two together with a screw, or with a caulking pin.

In addition, the joining pieces in the present invention include wooden materials such as rosewood, ebony, boxwood, and rosewood, as well as shellfish such as white butterfly, yellow butterfly, and abalone.
Ivory, coral, leather, beech, cloisonné, enamel,
It can also be applied to ceramics, lacquer, maki-e, transparent glass, semi-precious stones, and metals whose surfaces have been vacuum-deposited or patterned.

(Effects) As explained above, according to the present invention, a large number of pieces are connected through the connecting piece fixed to the end of the piece, so precious stones, which are difficult to process, can be used as piece pieces.
Even if you use glass, ceramic materials, etc.
Even if wood-based materials or shellfish are used, which are weak in strength, they can be connected without special processing, and almost the entire surface of the pieces can be exposed as is, so transparent materials are used. The band can be configured as a see-through type that can be used on both sides, and the characteristics of the decorative material that makes up the piece type can be fully utilized.

Moreover, as the connecting pieces that connect the pieces, we used connecting pieces of the same shape on both sides of the main body with the ears shifted to one side in the thickness direction, so it can be prepared according to the shape and material of the pieces. In addition to reducing the number of types of connecting pieces that need to be connected as much as possible and greatly reducing the cost required for manufacturing and managing them, it is also possible to fix these connecting pieces to the ends of each piece facing upward and downward, respectively. By connecting the pieces, it is possible to connect the pieces with the connecting pieces correctly arranged in two rows at both ends of the piece, and furthermore, each connecting piece can be connected to each other through a decorative pipe. So,
Even when the pieces are connected to form a band, it is possible to ensure a flexible bend, allowing it to fit comfortably on the arm, etc., and the combination of pieces and pipes allows the band to be further decorated. can be given gender.
