Definitions

  • the subject of the present invention is a bracelet which can be a bracelet of watch, in precious metal, gold, silver or platinum generally.
  • the bracelet according to the present invention comprises lightened links.
  • the subject of the present invention is a bracelet comprising links alleviated obviating the aforementioned drawbacks.
  • the object of the present invention is the production of a bracelet comprising metal links hinged to each other whose weight would be reduced, same as the price especially when the bracelet is made of precious metal.
  • Another goal of the present invention is to make a bracelet with articulated metal links avoiding metal-to-metal friction to prevent wear and soiling of links.
  • Yet another object of the present invention is the realization of a bracelet with lightened metal links so the cavities cannot not fill with water, dust or other dirt.
  • Another object of the invention is still to remove the corrosion of the metal links of the bracelet generally due to the pile effect between the links and their hinge pins which are made of different metals.
  • Yet another purpose of this invention is to provide a gentle pivoting of the links on the pins hinge.
  • the bracelets according to the invention may, despite the presence of lightened links, meet the Swiss and European requirements for stamping objects in precious metals.
  • the bracelet object of the present invention achieves all these goals, in addition it is easy to manufacture and assemble.
  • This bracelet is distinguished by the The features set out in claim 1.
  • the attached drawing illustrates schematically and by way of example a shape of execution of the bracelet according to the invention.
  • Figure 1 is an exploded perspective view of a portion of the bracelet.
  • Figure 2 is a top view, partially in section of a portion of the bracelet.
  • Figure 3 is a side view of a portion of the bracelet.
  • the metal link bracelet articulated and lightened have a row of central links with a tubular casing 1 of metal, preferably of precious metal.
  • These envelopes tubes can be in gold, platinum or silver but also in all other metal, usually precious metal or of a high price. Thanks to the fact that these central links 1 are tubular, their weight is reduced as is their price. In addition the manufacture of these tubular casings of the central links 1 is easy, they are for example obtained by extrusion and then cut to length wanted and polite.
  • These central links 1 also have two inserts 2a, 2b in material plastic, for example polyurethane, which are inserted into the service position on either side of a tubular casing 1 and completely fill the space empty of this envelope 1. These inserts 2a, 2b are forced out in a enclosure 1 and prevent any ingress of water or dust into the central links 1.
  • These inserts 2a, 2b have two passages intended for articulation pins 3 whose central part slides with greasy friction in these passages.
  • the ends of these hinge pins 3 have ridges longitudinal and are forcibly driven into blind holes that have side links 4a, 4b.
  • Two pins 3 of a central link are each forced out in two lateral links 4a and two links 4b different sides thus forming the chain of the bracelet.
  • inserts 2a, 2b driven into the envelope 1 of the links central gives them increased rigidity and good impact resistance. These same inserts 2a, 2b prevent any contact and any friction between the pins 3 and screws 6 with the casings 1 of the central links thus avoiding any corrosion, pile effect or abrasion.
  • inserts 2a, 2b could be done in one piece.
  • the pins 3 could be glued, driven, screwed or welded with techniques appropriate to the links side 4a, 4b.
  • the thickness of the envelopes 1 of the central links is at least 0.5mm and that the color or appearance of the visible edges of the inserts 2a, 2b when they are in service position driven in an envelope 1 clearly differs from the color or appearance of this envelope.
  • the mobility of the links with respect to each other is very good and soft because the pins and screws rotate in a plastic material which avoids any seizure, play, corrosion or abrasion.
  • the bracelet is lighter than if the central links were full and well safe cheaper, the precious metal removed being replaced by material plastic.
  • the solidity of the bracelet and in particular of the central links is excellent due to the presence of the inserts which prevents any deformation of the envelopes tubular central links.
