Definitions
- the present invention relates to an assembly formed of a box and a bracelet, both made of rigid material, in which the box includes at least one pair of horns in the vicinity of which the bracelet is arranged and which are each provided with a hole intended to receive means for fixing the bracelet in the box.
- the assembly according to the invention is characterized in that the holes of the horns are coaxial and the tapped holes form an acute angle with the axis of the holes horns. With such an arrangement, it is possible to access without difficulty at the screw slots, with the end of a screwdriver bit.
- the studs are attached to the bracelet, for example by welding.
- the bracelet and the box one in contact with the other, advantageously positioned by means of a laying, then come to weld the studs with screws, so that each stud is in support against one of the horns and each screw engaged in the hole that contains the adjacent horn.
- the quality of the assembly of the case and the bracelet depends on how the screw cooperates with the holes of the horns.
- the screws which have a first end, provided with a slot, and a second end, conical in shape, have an angle at the top of the cone equal to twice the acute angle formed by the axes of the screws with the axis of the holes in the horns.
- the fixing of the studs on the bracelet can be envisaged in different ways. It is, in particular, possible to do this by welding. This operation is facilitated if the studs are made of the same material as the bracelet.
- a solution, as defined above, is particularly well suited when the bracelet, the box and the studs are made of a metal.
- This metal can be chosen from precious or semi-precious metals, for example gold, platinum, silver or tantalum, or be of stainless steel.
- the assembly shown in the drawing comprises a box 10 and a bracelet 12, partially shown.
- the box 10 essentially comprises a middle part 14 and horns 16 integral of the middle part 14.
- the horns 16 form two by two a cutout 18. They each have a blind hole 20, the opening of which ends in the cutout 18, the holes 20 of the neighboring horns being coaxial, of axis A-A, and perpendicular to the faces of the cutout 18.
- Bracelet 12 is of the metal link type, only one of which is shown in drawing. It is inserted in the cutout 18. It has one end 12a, adjoining the middle part 14 and having a complementary shape, so as to perfectly fit its outline. It is provided with two studs 22 reported by welding. Each of the studs 22 is attached to one of the horns 16, in the vicinity of the hole 20. It is pierced with a tapped hole 24, of axis B-B making an angle ⁇ of the order from 15 to 25 ° relative to the axis A-A, the intersection of the axes A-A and B-B is making inside the blind hole 20.
- Screws 26 are each engaged in one of the holes 24. They include two ends 26a and 26b, respectively provided with a slot and a cone of apex angle substantially equal to twice the angle ⁇ formed by the axes A-A and B-B.
- the studs 22 are equipped with their screw 26, arranged with so that the conical end 26b only partially protrudes from the hole 24. The studs are then brought to the bracelet 12 and positioned so as to that they are pressed against the adjoining horn 16 and that the conical part of the screw 26 is in abutment against the entry of the hole 20 in its most distant portion middle 14.
- the fixing of the studs 22 is advantageously by welding, especially when the bracelet is made of stainless steel or gold.
- the length of the screws 26 is advantageously chosen so that the end 26a is housed in the hole 22 when the bracelet 12 is fixed to the box 10.
- the face of the bracelet adjoining the wrist has a homogeneous surface, which improves its aesthetics and also makes it possible to avoid bristles are trapped between the head of the screw and the link, which is strong unpleasant.
- a chosen apex angle equal to 2 ⁇ allows the greatest possible penetration of the screw 26 into the hole 20, while generating a force high contact between the strap 12 and the middle part 14.
- the disassembly of the strap 12 and the box 10 is done, simply, by loosening the screws 26.
- the box 10 can advantageously include two pairs of horns 16, respectively placed at noon and at 6 o'clock, to allow the fixing of a two-strand bracelet.
- the fixing of the studs 22 on the bracelet 12 can also be envisaged different ways, for example by gluing, screwing or riveting. It is also conceivable that they came in one piece with the link, by stamping and / or machining.
