Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a bracelet clasp with a device for adjusting the useful length of the bracelet.
  • the present invention also relates to a wristwatch provided with such a clasp.
  • the value of the wrist circumference varies depending on the seasons, with a maximum value generally being reached in summer and a minimum value being reached in winter. It is again preferable to provide a device for fine adjustment of the useful length of the bracelet allowing the wearer of the bracelet to adjust this length to improve the comfort of the bracelet when worn.
  • the patent application EP 09131060 A1 describes a clasp of the folding clasp type comprising a cover having a series of pairs of holes intended to accommodate the ends of a fixing bar of a bracelet. Two adjacent pairs of holes are spaced at a distance defining an adjustment step for the useful length of the bracelet, to address the problems mentioned above.
  • the clasp described in this patent is of the folding clasp type comprising two blades articulated together by means of a rod passing through both of them, each of the blades carrying at its free end a member for fixing to a bracelet.
  • a first blade carries a hook intended to engage in a hole provided in the second blade to cooperate with a trigger making it possible to lock the hook and therefore the clasp in a closed state.
  • the second blade comprises two parts capable of sliding relative to each other in a certain predefined range, defining a step of adjustment of the useful length of the bracelet.
  • a first of its two parts carries the hinge connecting it to the first blade while the second part carries the locking trigger.
  • the hole in which the hook engages to lock the clasp has a length, following the longitudinal direction of the bracelet, corresponding to the sliding range between the two parts of the second blade.
  • the trigger has a central part defining two locations for the hook, following the longitudinal direction of the bracelet, corresponding to two different useful lengths of the bracelet.
  • a control member comprising in particular a pusher makes it possible to activate the trigger to release the hook and open the clasp.
  • EP2740381A1 discloses a clasp according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a disadvantage resulting from this structure is the loss of adjustment of the length of the bracelet each time the clasp is opened. Therefore, the wearer of the bracelet must ensure each time the clasp is closed that the hook is inserted on the side of the central portion of the trigger corresponding to the desired length for the bracelet.
  • Adjustment devices comprising a specific locking member have also been proposed, as an alternative, to avoid this type of inconvenience.
  • a main aim of the present invention is to overcome the drawbacks of the clasps known from the prior art, by proposing a bracelet clasp comprising a device for adjusting the useful length of the bracelet of simple structure, preferably offering a stable adjustment, including when the clasp is open, and easy to handle.
  • the present invention relates more particularly to a clasp for a bracelet comprising first and second blades articulated relative to each other, by a first of their respective ends, between a closed position, to wear, and at least an open position, said first blade carrying a member for fixing a first strand of bracelet, said second blade, lower, being connected to a loop at its second end, the loop defining a passage for a second strand of bracelet and carrying a nipple intended to be inserted into a suitable hole in the bracelet strand to define an anchoring point of the latter to the clasp, the clasp further comprising at least one locking member to maintain said first and second blades in their closed position.
  • a carriage connected to the second end of the second blade, said carriage being arranged to slide in the loop and able to move from a first indexed position to a second position indexed to define at least two predefined positions associated with a predefined useful length of the bracelet.
  • the invention also relates to a wristwatch comprising a bracelet provided with a clasp according to the invention.
  • the clasp illustrated without limitation in the figures corresponds to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. More precisely, the clasp 100 is of the folding clasp type and is intended to close a timepiece bracelet.
  • the clasp 100 comprises a first blade 1 articulated on a second blade.
  • Each of the blades has an elongated shape following the longitudinal direction of the bracelet and slightly curved to better match the shape of a wearer's wrist.
  • the first blade 1 comprises two uprights 10 arranged in contact with each other at one of their ends and, each having a cutout such that they are not in contact with each other over the largest part of their length.
  • Each of the amounts 10 carries an extension 11, near its other end, extending in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the bracelet, to form a pusher defining a control member making it possible to unlock the clasp, as shown by there figure 1 .
  • the free end of the first blade 1 carries means for holding the bracelet intended to be associated with the clasp 100.
  • the holding means comprise a cover 12 having an upper wall 13 carrying side walls 14.
  • the side walls 14 are provided with two holes 8 making it possible to accommodate one end of a bar for fixing a bracelet strand, in a conventional manner .
  • the second blade 2 comprises two arms 20 connected on the one hand to the first blade 1, and on the other hand to a loop 3 via a carriage 4.
  • the loop 3 includes bent portions 30 for the passage of a bracelet strand , offset relative to the general direction of the arms 20 to define a passage for the bracelet strand.
  • the loop 3 has a first stud 7 and a second stud 31, both intended to be engaged in a different hole in the bracelet to define a first and a second anchoring point of the bracelet strand to the clasp 100 and thus hold it securely aligned with the clasp.
  • the loop 3 disposed at the end of the second blade 2 carries a device for adjusting the useful length of the bracelet intended to be associated with the clasp.
  • the device for adjusting the useful length of the bracelet comprises in particular the carriage 4 which is provided with a base 40 of rectangular shape and two uprights 41, and which is arranged to move in the loop 3 in the direction of the length of the bracelet. clasp.
  • the uprights 41 are arranged to slide in corresponding guide grooves 33 provided on the side edges of the loop 3.
  • the carriage 4 comprises an oblong hole 42 formed on the base 40, the oblong hole 42 cooperating with a pin 32 secured to the loop 3.
  • the pin 32 passes through the oblong hole when the carriage 4 is mounted in the passing 3, the uprights 41 being housed in the grooves 33.
  • the oblong hole 42 and the pin 32 make it possible to define the length of the stroke of the carriage 4 by relative to the loop 3, the ends of the oblong hole 42 thus defining the extreme positions of the carriage 4.
  • the loop 3 comprises indexing means defining at least first and second indexed positions, these positions making it possible to adjust the comfort of the clasp.
  • the indexing means comprise at least two notches 34 arranged on at least one of the guide grooves 33 to form said at least first and second indexed positions.
  • the loop 3 also comprises a control member arranged to allow the carriage to move from one position to another, the control member being in the form of a pusher 5 arranged on the carriage 3 and moving with the latter .
  • the pusher 5 comprises on its upper face a lug 50 arranged to cooperate with the notches 34 of the groove 33 so as to lock the chosen position, namely the first or second position in the example illustrated.
  • the pusher 5 extends over a large part of the width of the carriage 4 and has a flat portion 51 directly after the lug 50 and being housed in one of the uprights 41 of the carriage 4. Such an arrangement makes it possible to prevent the pusher is dislodged from the carriage 4 during its handling.
  • the pusher 5 is arranged to translate in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the length of the clasp, that is to say in a direction perpendicular to the movement of the carriage 4, and has on its upper face a textured portion to facilitate the gripping the pusher 5.
  • the carriage 4 comprises return means, in the form of a leaf spring 6, arranged to keep the control member under stress. So, for move the pusher 5, the user must slide the latter to force the leaf spring 6 and dislodge the lug 50 from the notch 34 in which it is located.
  • the carriage 4 comprises an L-shaped recess for receiving the pusher 5 and the spring blade 6, the foot of the L receiving the spring blade, and the body of the L receiving and guiding the pusher 5 which is slightly protruding relative to the 'obviously.
  • the carriage 4 comprises means for limiting its travel relative to the loop 3, these means for limiting the stroke being in the form of a pin 32 secured to the loop 3 and which is arranged to cooperate with an oblong hole 42 of the carriage 4.
  • Such an arrangement makes it possible both to define the extreme positions of the carriage 4 relative to the passer 3, and to prevent the carriage 4 from becoming dislodged from the grooves 33. So as to be able to easily disassemble the carriage 4 from the loop 3, pin 32 is screwed onto loop 3.
  • the wearer can modify the position of the carriage 4 by pressing on the pusher 5 to dislodge the lug 50 from the notch 34 formed in one of the guide grooves 33, then slides the carriage 4 or the loop 3 towards a second position where the notch 34 faces the lug 50. Once the position is chosen, the wearer releases the pusher 5 and the position is locked when the lug 50 is housed in the second notch.
