DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a glass fixing structure for a wristwatch case.

ガラス外周をパツキンで径方向に圧縮して固定する構造
の公知例の縦断面図を第1図に示す。
FIG. 1 shows a longitudinal sectional view of a known example of a structure in which the outer periphery of the glass is compressed and fixed in the radial direction with a gasket.

第1図に於て、1はガラス、2はL型パツキン、3は胴
である。
In FIG. 1, 1 is a glass, 2 is an L-shaped gasket, and 3 is a barrel.

胴3の内周には環状溝3aが設けられてお〃圧縮された

An annular groove 3a is provided on the inner periphery of the shell 3, and the compressed L-shaped packing 2 bites into this groove 3a, whereby the packing 2 and the shell 3. ! : The axial fixing force generated between increases.

これに対して、ガラス1とL型パツキン2との間の軸方
向の固定力は溝3aが設けられていないため、主として

されている。
On the other hand, since the groove 3a is not provided, the fixing force in the axial direction between the glass 1 and the L-shaped packing 2 is mainly determined only by the frictional force between the glass 1' and the L-shaped packing 2. ing.

接触圧力によって決定され、それ故に摩擦係数に係わる

As is well known, frictional force is determined by the friction coefficient and contact pressure between the materials in contact with each other. Therefore, the friction coefficient is determined by the roughness of the outer peripheral surface of the glass 1, and the contact pressure is influenced by the stress relaxation characteristics of the packing 2. It is strongly influenced by one key sign.

Conventionally, in order to increase the coefficient of friction, a method was used to roughen the outer peripheral surface of the glass 1, but on the other hand,
The rough surface had the disadvantage of decreasing watertightness.

On the other hand, it is well known that synthetic resins, which have been widely used in packing materials, are exposed to severe environmental changes over a long period of time when watches are carried, and their initial compressive stress is more or less relaxed. Naturally, the radial contact pressure between the glass 1 and the L-shaped packing 2 also decreases.

固定力及び水密性を得ることが困難であった。
For the reasons mentioned above, in this conventionally known example, it was particularly difficult to obtain stable fixing force and watertightness over a long period of time between the glass 1 and the L-shaped packing 2.

The present invention is intended to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks of the prior art, and by providing an annular protrusion on the outer periphery of the glass and using thermoplastic elastomer as the material of the L-shaped packing, upward fixing force and watertightness are achieved. It was designed to improve the

本発明の実施例を以下図面に基いて説明する。Embodiments of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings.

第2図に本発明の実施例の縦断面図を示す。FIG. 2 shows a longitudinal sectional view of an embodiment of the present invention.

4 is an inorganic or organic glass, 4a is an annular projection provided on the raised portion of the outer periphery of the glass, 5 is an L-shaped packing made of thermoplastic nidistomer, and 6 is a body.

6aは胴の内側に設けられた環状溝である。6a is an annular groove provided inside the barrel.

After attaching the L-shaped gasket 5 to the outer periphery of the glass 4, it is pushed into the large inner diameter 6b of the body 6 with a certain amount of compression.

As a result, the L-shaped packing 5 bites into the upper surface of the annular protrusion 4a provided on the outer periphery of the glass and into the annular groove 6a of the large inner diameter 6b of the body 6.

パツキン材としては、弾性と塑性の中間的性質を有する
As a packing material, it has properties intermediate between elasticity and plasticity.

For example, a thermoplastic nitrogen gas having a permanent set of 30 to 70, such as (trade name) Pelprene, is suitable.The sealing material is partly made of an annular protrusion 4a on the outer periphery of the glass and a large diameter 6 on the inner periphery of the body 6.
It bites into the annular groove 6a of b and undergoes some plastic deformation to increase fixation in the axial direction, and at the same time maintains elastic repulsion even after plastic deformation to compress the glass 4 in the radial direction and create a watertight seal. fulfill.

When using elastic materials such as synthetic rubber as the packing material,
The packing material bitten into the annular projection 4a and the annular groove 6a hardly undergoes plastic deformation, and a large increase in the fixing force in the axial direction cannot be expected.

In addition, when a resin similar to a plastic material such as nylon or Teflon is used for the packing material, the packing material plastically deforms and bites into the annular protrusion 4a and the annular groove 6a, and the fixing force of the glass 4 increases significantly. It is difficult to perform the function of a watertight seal because the amount of elasticity of the part is small.

FIGS. 3, 4, and 5 show other embodiments of the annular protrusion provided on the outer periphery of the glass according to the present invention.

As described above, the present invention achieves a large increase in glass fixing force and its long-term stability, which could not be achieved with conventional techniques, and also simultaneously achieves improved watertightness and its long-term stability. This is an epoch-making technology that has made this possible.

In general, organic glass has the property of causing significant dimensional shrinkage at low temperatures, and when used in the structure shown in Figure 1, the compressive force of the packing in the radial direction against the glass is extremely reduced, causing the glass to shrink. The force that significantly impairs the axial fixing force and watertightness of The elastomer packing can follow the dimensional shrinkage of organic glass and maintain sufficient fixing force and watertightness, and its effectiveness is extremely significant.
