Abstract

A security support for display article, in particular wrist-watches, designed to be integrated in a display unit includes a sensor fixed on the base and connected by a conductor were to a connector linked to an alarm central station. The support consists of a globally cylindrical block whereof the side surface is truncated along a chord to form a plane whereon is fixedly mounted a mechanical locking member adapted to co-operate removably with corresponding parts of the sensor fixed at the base of the watch, such that the latter thus equipped with the sensor, can be mechanically locked on the cylindrical block by the locking member and can be locked on that same block by winding of its own bracelet and by closure of its clasp.

Description

La présente invention concerne un support sécurisé pour des articles de démonstration, notamment des montres-bracelets destinés à être intégrés à un présentoir.The present invention relates to a secure medium for articles of demonstration, in particular wristwatches intended to be integrated into a display.

Plus particulièrement, l'invention concerne un support sécurisé qui permet la manipulation des articles tout en les laissant reliés à une centrale d'alarme afin de limiter les risques de vol.More particularly, the invention relates to a secure medium which allows handling of items while leaving them connected to a central alarm to limit the risk of theft.

Dans des systèmes de protection connus permettant la manipulation des articles par des acheteurs potentiels, tels que décrits dans FR-2752636, on peut fixer un capteur par exemple sur le fond d'une montre, et on le relie par un fil conducteur à un connecteur en liaison avec une centrale d'alarme.In known protection systems allowing the manipulation of articles by potential buyers, as described in FR-2752636, on can fix a sensor for example on the bottom of a watch, and is connected by a conductive wire to a connector in connection with a central alarm.

Ce capteur est collé et toute tentative de décollage de ce capteur déclenche l'alarme.This sensor is stuck and any attempt to take off this sensor triggers the alarm.

Néanmoins, il a pu être constaté que la simple fixation du capteur sur le fond de la montre était parfois insuffisant car les capteurs généralement utilisés comprennent un micro-interrupteur maintenu en compression par contact avec le fond de la montre et qu'il n'était pas impossible de les neutraliser en glissant un objet rigide plat entre le fond de la montre et le capteur pour éviter de déclencher l'alarme.Nevertheless, it has been found that the simple fixing of the sensor on the the bottom of the watch was sometimes insufficient because the sensors generally used comprise a microswitch maintained in compression by contact with the bottom of the watch and that it was not impossible to neutralize them by slipping a rigid object flat between the bottom of the watch and the sensor to avoid trigger the alarm.

Il s'est donc avéré nécessaire de renforcer davantage le dispositif de sécurité.It has therefore been necessary to further strengthen the security.

A cet effet, l'invention concerne un support sécurisé pour des articles de démonstration, notamment des montres-bracelets, destiné à être intégré à un présentoir et comportant un capteur fixé sur le fond de la montre et relié par un fil conducteur à un connecteur en liaison avec une centrale d'alarme.For this purpose, the invention relates to a secure support for articles of demonstration, in particular wristwatches, intended to be integrated into a display and having a sensor attached to the bottom of the watch and connected by a conductive wire to a connector in connection with a central alarm.

Selon l'invention, ce support est constitué par un bloc globalement cylindrique dont la surface latérale est tronquée suivant une corde pour présenter un plan sur lequel est rapporté fixement un organe de verrouillage mécanique susceptible de coopérer de façon amovible avec des parties correspondantes du capteur dont un plan supérieur est attaché, de façon amovible, à une embase fixée sur le fond de la montre, de manière que cette dernière ainsi équipée du capteur puisse, d'une part, être verrouillée mécaniquement sur le support cylindrique par l'organe de verrouillage et, d'autre part, immobilisée sur ce même support par enroulement et fermeture de son propre bracelet. According to the invention, this support is constituted by a block globally cylindrical whose side surface is truncated along a rope for present a plan on which is attached a locking member mechanically capable of releasably cooperating with parts of the sensor with a top plane attached, so removable, to a base fixed on the bottom of the watch, so that this last equipped with the sensor can, on the one hand, be locked mechanically on the cylindrical support by the locking member and, on the other hand, immobilized on the same support by winding and closing his own bracelet.

De cette manière, tout client mal intentionné devra non seulement s'affranchir de la présence du capteur mais il devra également ouvrir le bracelet-montre et déverrouiller l'organe de verrouillage.In this way, any ill-intentioned customer will not only have to to be free from the presence of the sensor but it will also have to open the wristwatch and unlock the locking member.

La présente invention concerne également les caractéristiques qui ressortiront au cours de la description qui va suivre et qui devront être considérées isolément ou selon toutes leurs combinaisons techniquement possibles :

  • l'organe de verrouillage mécanique est constitué par un élément plat en forme de U dont les branches ouvertes sont parallèles entre elles et sont issues d'un fond semi-circulaire dont le diamètre est supérieur à leur écartement et sensiblement égal à celui d'une embase cylindrique du capteur, de manière à permettre l'engagement de celui-ci dans l'organe en U par encliquetage élastique ;

  • le support comporte, sur la base du bloc globalement cylindrique qu'il forme, une saignée curviligne débouchant, d'une part, sur son plan supérieur à proximité des branches ouvertes de l'organe de verrouillage et, d'autre part, dans une zone inférieure de sa paroi cylindrique, de manière à permettre le guidage du fil conducteur, spiralé ou non, dans sa partie située à proximité des capteurs ;
  • le support comporte, sur les deux bases du bloc cylindrique qu'il forme, deux ergots axiaux dépassant de part et d'autre desdites bases et aptes à se loger dans deux logements ouverts à la manière de fourches, de forme correspondante auxdits ergots et réalisés sur deux étriers d'un présentoir ;

  • le support comporte un élément de retenue disposé à l'extrémité éloignée du plan du bloc cylindrique de la saignée curviligne, destiné à retenir le fil conducteur lorsqu'il est logé dans la saignée.
The present invention also relates to the features which will become apparent in the course of the description which will follow and which will have to be considered in isolation or in all their technically possible combinations:
  • the mechanical locking member is constituted by a U-shaped flat element whose open branches are parallel to each other and come from a semi-circular bottom whose diameter is greater than their spacing and substantially equal to that of a cylindrical base of the sensor, so as to allow the engagement thereof in the U-shaped member snap elastically;

  • the support comprises, on the base of the generally cylindrical block that it forms, a curvilinear groove opening, on the one hand, on its upper plane close to the open branches of the locking member and, on the other hand, in a lower zone of its cylindrical wall, so as to allow the guiding of the conductive wire, spiral or not, in its part located near the sensors;
  • the support comprises, on the two bases of the cylindrical block that it forms, two axial lugs protruding on either side of said bases and adapted to be housed in two housings open in the manner of forks, of a shape corresponding to said lugs and made on two stirrups of a display stand;
  • the two axial lugs are of square section whose value is substantially equal to that of the spacing of the forks formed by the stirrups of the display;

This description is given by way of non-limiting example with reference to the accompanying drawings in which:
  • Figure 1 is a perspective view of a secure support according to the invention;
  • Figure 2 is a side view of the secure support according to Figure 1, after establishment of a locking member;

  • FIG. 6 represents a set of two brackets for the secure support according to the invention; and
  • FIG. 7 represents a sensor for the secure support according to the invention.

Le support sécurisé 1 est constitué par un bloc cylindrique 2 ayant une enveloppe ou surface latérale A et deux bases ou faces d'extrémité 21, 23. La surface latérale A est tronquée suivant une corde 3 pour présenter un plan 4 sur lequel est rapporté fixement un organe de verrouillage mécanique 5.The secure support 1 is constituted by a cylindrical block 2 having a envelope or lateral surface A and two bases or end faces 21, 23. The side surface A is truncated along a rope 3 to present a plane 4 on which is fixedly attached a mechanical locking member 5.

Cet organe de verrouillage mécanique 5 est susceptible de coopérer de façon amovible avec des parties correspondantes 6 d'un capteur 7 dont un plan supérieur 61 est destiné à être attaché, de façon amovible, lui aussi, à une embase 8 fixée sur le fond 9 d'une montre 10.This mechanical locking member 5 is capable of cooperating removably with corresponding parts 6 of a sensor 7, one of which upper plane 61 is intended to be attached, removably, too, to a base 8 fixed on the bottom 9 of a watch 10.

De cette manière, la montre 10 est non seulement reliée par un fil conducteur 11 à un connecteur 12 en liaison avec une centrale d'alarme mais elle est en outre verrouillée mécaniquement sur le support cylindrique 2 par l'organe de verrouillage 5 et elle est de plus immobilisée sur ce même support par enroulement de son propre bracelet 13 et par fermeture de son fermoir 14.In this way, the watch 10 is not only connected by a wire conductor 11 to a connector 12 in connection with a central alarm but it is also mechanically locked on the cylindrical support 2 by the locking member 5 and is further immobilized on the same support by winding his own bracelet 13 and closing his clasp 14.

L'organe de verrouillage mécanique 5 est constitué par un élément plat en forme de U dont les branches ouvertes 15 et 16 sont parallèles entre elles et sont issues d'un fond semi-circulaire 17 dont le diamètre d est supérieur à l'écartement e desdites branches 15 et 16. Ce diamètre d est sensiblement égal à celui d' d'une embase cylindrique 6 du capteur 7.The mechanical locking member 5 is constituted by a flat element U-shaped whose open branches 15 and 16 are parallel to each other and come from a semi-circular bottom 17 whose diameter d is greater than the spacing e of said branches 15 and 16. This diameter d is substantially equal to that of a cylindrical base 6 of the sensor 7.

De cette manière, on obtient l'engagement de ce dernier dans l'organe de verrouillage en U 5 par encliquetage élastique, selon une force à déterminer.In this way, we obtain the commitment of the latter in the organ U-lock 5 by elastic latching, according to a force to determine.

De manière à assurer la retenue axiale du capteur 7, son embase cylindrique 6 forme, à l'opposé de son plan supérieur 61, destinée à être fixé sur la montre 9, une collerette 18 de diamètre d" supérieur à celui d' de ladite embase 6, ladite collerette 18 étant apte à s'engager sous un épaulement 19 qui est formé par une partie inférieure 20 élargie et de forme correspondante de l'organe de verrouillage 5.In order to ensure the axial retention of the sensor 7, its base cylindrical 6 forms, opposite its upper plane 61, intended to be fixed on the watch 9, a flange 18 of diameter greater than that of said base 6, said collar 18 being able to engage under a shoulder 19 which is formed by an enlarged lower part 20 of corresponding shape of the locking member 5.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, le bloc cylindrique 2 comporte sur la base 21 une saignée curviligne 22 débouchant, d'une part, sur son plan supérieur 4 à proximité des branches ouvertes 15 et 16 de l'organe de verrouillage 5 et, d'autre part, dans une zone inférieure de sa paroi cylindrique, de manière à permettre le guidage du fil conducteur 11, spiralé ou non, dans sa partie située à proximité du capteur 7.According to another characteristic of the invention, the cylindrical block 2 comprises on the base 21 a curvilinear bleeding 22 opening on the one hand, on its upper plane 4 near the open branches 15 and 16 of the locking member 5 and, on the other hand, in a lower zone of its cylindrical wall, so as to guide the conductive wire 11, spiral or not, in its part located near the sensor 7.

Avantageusement, la saignée 22 est pourvue, à l'extrémité éloignée du plan 4, d'un élément de retenue 26 destiné à retenir le fil conducteur 11 lorsque celui-ci est logé dans la saignée 22. L'élément de retenue 26 est, de préférence, formé comme une dent s'engageant entre deux spirales successives d'un fil spiralé 11.Advantageously, the bleeding 22 is provided, at the far end of the 4, a retaining element 26 for retaining the wire 11 when it is housed in the groove 22. The retainer 26 is, of preferably formed as a tooth engaging between two spirals successive spiral wire 11.

Préférentiellement, l'embase cylindrique 6 du capteur 7 est montée librement rotative par rapport à celui-ci, de manière à permettre une orientation adéquate du fil conducteur par rapport à la saignée curviligne 22.Preferably, the cylindrical base 6 of the sensor 7 is mounted freely rotatable relative thereto, so as to allow a Proper orientation of the conductive wire with respect to the curvilinear groove 22.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, le support sécurisé 1 comporte sur les deux bases 21 et 23 du bloc cylindrique 2 qu'il forme, deux ergots axiaux 24 et 25, dépassant de part et d'autre desdites bases 21 et 23 et aptes à se loger dans deux logements 26 et 27, ouverts à la manière d'une fourche, de forme correspondante auxdits ergots axiaux 24 et 25 et réalisés sur deux étriers 28 et 29 d'un présentoir 30.According to another characteristic of the invention, the secure medium 1 comprises on the two bases 21 and 23 of the cylindrical block 2 that it forms, two axial pins 24 and 25, protruding on both sides of said bases 21 and 23 and able to lodge in two dwellings 26 and 27, open in the manner of a fork, corresponding in shape to said axial lugs 24 and 25 and made on two stirrups 28 and 29 of a display 30.

Selon le présent exemple de réalisation, les deux ergots axiaux 24 et 25 sont de section carrée dont la valeur c d'un côté est sensiblement égale à celle de l'écartement e des fourches 26, 27 formées par les étriers 28, 29 du présentoir 30.According to the present exemplary embodiment, the two axial lugs 24 and 25 are of square section whose value c of one side is substantially equal to that of the spacing e of the forks 26, 27 formed by the stirrups 28, 29 of the display 30.

Avantageusement, le bloc cylindrique constituant le support sécurisé avec son capteur est réalisé par moulage de matière plastique.Advantageously, the cylindrical block constituting the secure support with its sensor is made by plastic molding.
