   DESCRIPTION



   La présente invention se rapporte à un bracelet, et plus particulièrement à un bracelet pour montre.



   Il est connu d'utiliser comme bracelets pour des montres de bas de gamme, bon marché, des bandes de matière plastique, qui présentent l'inconvénient d'être en général trop rigides et de favoriser la formation de condensation (transpiration) entre la bande de matière plastique et la peau de celui qui la porte.



   Le but de cette invention consiste donc à remédier aux inconvénients précités en fournissant un bracelet articulé qui soit plus agréa
 ble à porter, tout en restant d'un bas prix de revient. Le bracelet ar
 ticulé notamment pour montre, objet de cette invention et visant à
 atteindre le but précité, présente les caractéristiques énoncées dans la revendication 1.



   Le dessin annexé illustre schématiquement et à titre d'exemple une réalisation du bracelet selon l'invention.



   La figure 1 est une vue en plan d'une portion du bracelet.



   La figure 2 est une vue en plan et partiellement en coupe hori
 zontale des deux types d'éléments constitutifs du bracelet.



   La figure 3 est une vue de côté et partiellement en coupe verticale
 des deux types d'éléments constitutifs du bracelet.



   Comme représenté sur la figure 1, le bracelet est constitué par l'assemblage du type en quinconce de deux sortes d'éléments consti
 tutifs ou maillons, tous réalisés en matière plastique. Il comporte
 donc une rangée d'éléments centraux 1, ici de forme générale carrée, et deux rangées d'éléments latéraux 2, ici de forme générale rectangulaire, chaque élément latéral 2 étant accouplé avec deux éléments centraux qui se suivent.



   Comme organes d'accouplement possibles, chaque maillon central 1 présente sur la tranche de deux côtés opposés deux orifices 3, de préférence obtenus de fabrication et présentant des épaulements d'accrochage 3', et chaque maillon latéral 2 présente sur la tranche d'un grand côté deux tétons 4 dirigés vers l'extérieur perpendiculairement audit côté et dont l'extrémité libre est munie d'une protubérance 4' d'un diamètre supérieur. Les dimensions des orifices 3 respectivement des tétons 4 sont telles que les tétons peuvent être introduits et maintenus dans lesdits orifices par accrochage des protubérances 4' sur les épaulements 3'. Inversement, les tétons peuvent être venus de fabrication avec les éléments centraux et les orifices pratiqués dans les éléments latéraux.



   Selon une variante non illustrée,. le bracelet peut présenter plusieurs rangées parallèles d'éléments centraux, reliées les unes aux autres par des moyens d'accouplement similaires ou non à ceux entre les éléments centraux et les éléments latéraux
 Bien entendu, d'autres types de moyens d'accouplement entre les deux types d'éléments constitutifs peuvent être prévus. De même, les éléments centraux respectivement latéraux peuvent être tous de forme carrée, tous de forme rectangulaire, etc;
 De manière connue en soi, le bracelet selon l'invention peut être muni à ses extrémités d'un fermoir. De même, avec deux portions du bracelet selon l'invention, on peut réaliser un bracelet pour montre, chaque portion étant munie d'un élément de fermoir à l'une de ses extrémités et de moyens d'attache au boîtier à l'autre extrémité.

 

   Enfin, les éléments constitutifs respectivement centraux et latéraux du bracelet selon l'invention peuvent être réalisés en des matières plastiques de toutes les couleurs, de manière à pouvoir former des assemblages de ces éléments qui présentent des effets esthétiques originaux et variés. 



  
 



   DESCRIPTION



   The present invention relates to a bracelet, and more particularly to a watch strap.



   It is known to use, as bracelets for low-end, inexpensive watches, plastic bands, which have the disadvantage of being generally too rigid and of favoring the formation of condensation (perspiration) between the band. of plastic and the skin of the wearer.



   The object of this invention therefore consists in remedying the aforementioned drawbacks by providing an articulated bracelet which is more agreeable.
 ble to wear, while remaining low cost. The ar bracelet
 especially ticked for watch, object of this invention and aimed at
 achieve the above object, has the features set out in claim 1.



   The appended drawing illustrates schematically and by way of example an embodiment of the bracelet according to the invention.



   Figure 1 is a plan view of a portion of the bracelet.



   Figure 2 is a plan view and partially in section hori
 zontal of the two types of constituent elements of the bracelet.



   Figure 3 is a side view and partially in vertical section
 of the two types of constituent elements of the bracelet.



   As shown in Figure 1, the bracelet is made by assembling the staggered type of two kinds of elements
 tutifs or links, all made of plastic. It comprises
 therefore a row of central elements 1, here of generally square shape, and two rows of lateral elements 2, here of generally rectangular shape, each lateral element 2 being coupled with two central elements which follow one another.



   As possible coupling members, each central link 1 has on the edge of two opposite sides two orifices 3, preferably obtained from manufacture and having hooking shoulders 3 ′, and each lateral link 2 has on the edge of a long side two nipples 4 directed outwards perpendicularly to said side and the free end of which is provided with a protrusion 4 ′ with a larger diameter. The dimensions of the orifices 3 respectively of the studs 4 are such that the studs can be introduced and maintained in said orifices by hooking the protuberances 4 'on the shoulders 3'. Conversely, the nipples may have come from manufacturing with the central elements and the orifices made in the lateral elements.



   According to a variant not illustrated ,. the bracelet may have several parallel rows of central elements, connected to each other by coupling means similar or not to those between the central elements and the lateral elements
 Of course, other types of coupling means between the two types of constituent elements can be provided. Similarly, the respectively lateral central elements can all be square, all rectangular, etc;
 In a manner known per se, the bracelet according to the invention can be provided at its ends with a clasp. Likewise, with two portions of the strap according to the invention, a watch strap can be produced, each portion being provided with a clasp element at one of its ends and means for attaching the case to the other. end.

 

   Finally, the respectively central and lateral constituent elements of the bracelet according to the invention can be made of plastics of all colors, so as to be able to form assemblies of these elements which have original and varied aesthetic effects.
