Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for mounting a flexible strand in particular a bracelet or a belt on an object such as a watch case or a loop and more particularly such a device allowing a semi-automatic assembly of a strand on the object.
  • the invention also relates to a watch case adapted to such a device and a method of simultaneous assembly of two flexible strands on a watch case using the mounting device of the invention.
  • the watch straps are attached to the watch cases equipped with horns by means of fastening strips inserted into eyelets provided at one end of each strand of bracelet.
  • the ends of the bars are inserted in holes provided in the horns of the box.
  • the bars used on more commonly are called spring bars. These include their ends two pivots, generally movable inside a central tube, and subjected to the action of a spring housed inside the tube and which pushes them towards the outside of the tube
  • the main object of the present invention is to overcome the drawbacks of the art aforementioned by providing a semi-automatic mounting device a soft strand on an object including a bracelet on a watch box that allows rapid assembly of said strands on said objects.
  • the invention also aims to provide such a mounting device which prevents any risk of injury to the object during assembly.
  • the invention also aims to provide such a mounting device which is simple, easy to use and inexpensive to make.
  • the subject of the invention is a device for semi-assembly automatic one flexible strand including a bracelet, or a belt between mutually opposite surfaces of a recess of an object, in particular a box of a watch or a loop to be connected to the flexible strand, said strand comprising at least one its ends a fixing bar provided with two pivots of which at least one is retractable and intended to be engaged in holes provided in said surfaces of the recess, said device being characterized in that it comprises two support assemblies, respectively for the object and said flexible strand, movable one relative to each other, said support assembly of the object comprising two surfaces of mutually opposed cams and extending substantially perpendicular to said bar, said cam surfaces acting on the pins of the bar for retract them at least partially during the relative movement of the support assembly the flexible strand and the support assembly of the object, said movement causing said pivots in view of said holes to ensure the mounting of said strand.
  • This device lies in the fact that it can be used by a inexperienced operator. Another advantage is that it doubles the rate of mounting bracelets compared to the manual mounting mode of the prior art.
  • the device of the invention is also characterized in that two strands flexible, in particular bracelet can come to be fixed simultaneously on the object, especially a watch box from the bottom or the top of the object. It results in the fact that with a single translational movement of the block it is possible to achieve the simultaneous fixation of two strands of bracelet on a watch case and this in the advantageous embodiment in which the block support comprises two recesses arranged in correspondence with the spaces between the horns of the watch case, the cam surfaces being associated with the mutually opposite sidewalls of each recess and being arranged in a direction parallel to the direction of movement translation.
  • the invention also relates to a watch case comprising at least a pair of horns for fixing a strand of a bracelet provided with a bar, said horns respectively having lateral faces facing each other in which are provided fixing holes for receiving the ends of the bar, the watch case being characterized in that said side faces each further comprise a groove which extends substantially in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the watch case from the base of the horns into said holes.

  • the end face of the extreme link can not in this case be wedged precisely against the bottom of the recess of the box support block, so that the pins of the bar are not mechanically positioned correctly for their assembly.
  • the grooves thus allow precise guidance of pins of the bar to their insertion position in the holes provided in the horns when mounting the bracelet on the mounting device of the invention.
  • the invention also relates to a method of mounting the semi-assembly automatic two flexible strands including a bracelet between the surfaces mutually opposite two recesses of an object including a box of shows connecting to the flexible strands, said bracelet strands having at one of its ends a fixing bar provided with two pivots of which at least one is retractable and intended to be engaged in holes provided in said surfaces of course, characterized in that it includes the steps of maintaining the ends of the strands at a distance from each other corresponding to their position once mounted on said object, retract mechanically at least one said pins of the bars, and put in relative motion the object and the strands of bracelet for simultaneously bringing said strands into the recess of said object of so that the pivots penetrate into said holes
