Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, in such a conventional wristwatch, although the elastic rubber member covering the outer surface of the watch case can take advantage of its elasticity when dropped from a table to the ground or the like (for example, a height of about 2 to 3 m), The deformation absorbs the impact, but when it falls from a height such as a building (for example, a height of about 10m) and collides with the ground, etc., if a strong impact is applied, the elastic rubber parts cannot absorb the impact, and the watch case may be damaged by the impact. Problems such as broken glass and internal parts

Embodiment approach 1

[0023] Below, refer to Figure 1 to Figure 7 Embodiment 1 of a wristwatch to which the present invention is applied will be described.

[0024] Such as Figure 1 ~ Figure 3 As shown, the watch includes a watch case 1 and a shock absorbing member 2 surrounding the watch case 1 . Such as Figure 4 As shown, the watch case 1 is composed of a case body 3 and a bezel 4 covering the outer surface of the case body 3 .

[0025] Such as Figure 4 As shown, a timepiece glass 5 is attached to the upper opening of the case body 3 via a spacer 5 a. The bezel 4 covering the outer surface of the case main body 3 is made of soft synthetic resin, and is provided on the outside of the case main body 3 with its upper inner peripheral edge covering the upper surface at the outer peripheral end of the watch glass 5 . surface.

[0026] Additionally, if Figure 4 As shown, a clock module 6 is arranged inside the housing body 3 . The timepiece module 6 includes various components necessary fo...

Embodiment approach 2

[0064] Next, refer to Figure 8 ~ Figure 12 , the second embodiment of the wristwatch to which the present invention is applied will be described. In addition, in the same Figure 1 to Figure 7 In the illustrated embodiment, the same parts are assigned the same symbols and described.

[0065] Such as Figure 9 , Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, the watch is provided with a cover fixing part 26, and the cover fixing part 26 is used to install the back cover 25 on the lower part of the watch case 1 by screwing, and thereby fix the back cover 25 to the shock absorbing member. On the bottom 16 of 2, it is the same structure as Embodiment 1 except this.

[0066] That is, if Figure 11 As shown, the rear cover 25 is formed into a substantially circular flat plate, such as Figure 10 ~ Figure 12 As shown, a ring portion 27 inserted into the lower opening portion 28 of the watch case 1 is formed on the upper surface of the back cover 25 . Such as Figure 11 As shown, an ex...

Abstract

A shock absorbing member for a wristwatch includes a wristwatch case whose side portions are provided with a pair of bands and an operation member positioned avoiding the pair of bands, and back surface has a case back attached thereto. This shock absorbing member is made of a flexible resin, and includes a peripheral side portion that surrounds the wristwatch case and projects further outward than a top surface of the wristwatch case, and a bottom portion to which the case back is attached. In addition, the peripheral side portion is provided with band holes into which the pair of bands are inserted and an operation hole corresponding to the operation member. Accordingly, even when a strong shock of falling from a high place or the like is received, the shock is unfailingly absorbed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a shock absorbing member for a watch and a watch. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, as described in JP Sho 63-44784 A, there is known a wristwatch which is configured to cover the outer surface of a watch case with an elastic rubber member and absorb shocks such as dropping by the elastic rubber member. [0003] This kind of wristwatch is constituted by covering the outer surface of the watch case with an elastic rubber member, and making the protruding part protruding to the outside of the switch part provided on the side part of the watch case and the hole part provided in the elastic rubber member fit, thereby installing the elastic rubber part on the watch case. [0004] However, in such a conventional wristwatch, although the elastic rubber member covering the outer surface of the watch case can take advantage of its elasticity when dropped from a table to the ground or the like (for example, a height ...
