no. 1 approach

[0019] Below, refer to Figure 1 to Figure 5A , Figure 5B , the first embodiment in which the present invention is applied to a wristwatch will be described.

[0020] Such as Figure 1 to Figure 4 As shown, the watch has a watch case 1. The watch case 1 is composed of a case body 2 and an exterior cover 3 .

[0021] Such as Figure 1 to Figure 4 As shown, a timepiece glass 4 is attached to the upper opening of the watch case 1 , that is, the upper opening of the case body 2 via a glass gasket 4 a. A back cover (not shown) is attached to the lower portion of the watch case 1 , that is, the lower portion of the case body 2 . Furthermore, a timepiece module (not shown) is provided inside the watch case 1 , that is, inside the case main body 2 .

[0022] Such as figure 1 As shown, on the 12 o'clock side and the 6 o'clock side of the wristwatch case 1, band attachment parts 5 for attaching a watch band (not shown) are respectively provided. Further, switch units 6 are resp...

no. 2 approach

[0067] Next, refer to Figure 6 ~ Figure 9A , Figure 9B A second embodiment in which the present invention is applied to a wristwatch will be described. Additionally, for Figure 1 to Figure 5A , Figure 5B The parts that are the same as those of the first embodiment shown will be described with the same reference numerals.

[0068] Such as Figure 6 ~ Figure 9A , Figure 9B As shown, the deformation restricting portion 21 of the reinforcement member 20 of the wristwatch case 1 of this wristwatch has a structure different from that of the first embodiment, but has substantially the same structure as that of the first embodiment.

[0069] That is, similarly to the first embodiment, the reinforcing member 20 is integrally formed with the exterior cover 3 using a relatively rigid synthetic resin such as polyamide or polycarbonate. Such as Figure 6 ~ Figure 9A , Figure 9B As shown, this reinforcement member 20 includes first to third reinforcement portions 12 to 14 , a ...

Abstract

A case includes a case main body, an exterior cover formed of a synthetic resin and mounted on an upper portion and an outer circumferential portion of the case main body to cover the upper portion and the outer circumferential portion, and a reinforcement member formed of a synthetic resin harder than the exterior cover and embedded in an inner surface of the exterior cover to prevent an inner circumferential side of the exterior cover from being bent back relative to the case main body.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a case used in electronic devices such as watches, mobile phones, and mobile information terminals, and to a timepiece provided with the case. Background technique [0002] For example, in a wristwatch case, it is known that, as described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2000-329869, a soft synthetic resin exterior cover is provided on the outer periphery of the upper part of the metal case main body, and an exterior cover is arranged on the top of the exterior cover. There is a metal pressing member, and this pressing member is used to fix the exterior cover to the case main body. [0003] This wristwatch case is constituted by attaching a metal pressing member to the case main body with a plurality of screws, and pressing the outer cover to the case main body by the pressing member, so that the soft synthetic resin outer cover does not press against the case. The main body produces curls. [0004] Howeve...
