Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of watch processing, and particularly to a press-fit bezel.

Background Art

[0002] The bezel of a watch is often decorated by inlaying inserts such as diamonds. The most common inlay method at present is prong setting, which tightly holds the inserts such as diamonds with long metal prongs. However, the inlay process of prong setting is complex and cumbersome, and the metal prong part is likely to catch on hair or fabric. If the metal prong part is made of a relatively soft metal, it may cause the metal prong part to be easily deformed and the inserts such as diamonds to fall off. Moreover, the existing inlay methods often require fixing the inserts one by one, and the inlay process is cumbersome.

Summary of the Invention

[0003] The present invention solves the technical problems that the inlay process of prong setting on the bezel is complex and cumbersome and the inlay is not firm. The present invention provides a press-fit bezel with a simple structure and reasonable design.

Detailed Implementation Modes

[0025] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects solved by the present invention clearer and more understandable, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0026] When ordinal numbers such as "first" and "second" are mentioned in the embodiments of the present invention, unless they actually express an order meaning according to the context, they should be understood as only for distinction.

[0027] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected" and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the communication inside two components. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific situations.

[0028] The pressing type bezel includes a bezel body 1, a groove 2 for placing an insert 4 is provided on the bezel body 1, an outer bezel 11 and an inner bezel 12 for forming the groove 2 are provided on both sides of the groove 2, and a clamping groove 3 for fixing the insert 4 is formed between the outer bezel 11 and the inner bezel 12 when the outer bezel 11 or the inner bezel 12 is pressed towards the insert 4.

[0029] This embodiment provides a pressing type bezel, which includes a bezel body. A groove for placing an insert is provided on the bezel body. An outer bezel and an inner bezel for forming the groove are provided on both sides of the groove. When the outer bezel or the inner bezel is pressed towards the insert, a clamping groove for fixing the insert is formed between the outer bezel and the inner bezel. The insert is placed on the groove, and then pressure is applied to the outer bezel or the inner bezel, so that the outer bezel or the inner bezel is pressed towards the insert, and the insert is fixed on the clamping groove. In this way, all the inserts in the groove can be fixed by pressing the outer bezel or the inner bezel, without fixing each insert one by one. The inlay process is not only simple and fast, but also can firmly fix the insert and is not easy to fall off.

[0030] Further, as a preferred implementation manner rather than a limitation of this solution, the groove 2 includes a groove inclined surface 21 that slopes from the bottom of the groove towards the opening in a gradually expanding direction. The groove inclined surface 21 allows the insert 4 to move along the inclined surface of the groove 2 to the clamping groove 3 for fixation when the outer ring 11 or the inner ring 12 is pressed. The groove inclined surface that slopes from the bottom of the groove towards the opening in a gradually expanding direction is used to concentrate the insert towards the bottom of the groove when the insert is placed on the groove. This is used to limit the position of the insert, enabling the insert to better sink into the groove. Moreover, it can also make the distances between multiple inserts from the outer ring or the inner ring the same, ensuring that the multiple inserts are evenly stressed. When the outer ring or the inner ring presses on the insert, the distance between the outer ring and the inner ring gradually decreases, forcing the insert to rise along the groove inclined surface to the clamping groove, and then the clamping groove fixes the insert.

[0031] Still further, as a preferred implementation manner rather than a limitation of this solution, the clamping groove 3 includes a first limiting groove 111 provided on the outer ring 11 and a second limiting groove 121 provided on the inner ring 12. The first limiting groove 111 and the second limiting groove 121 clamp and fix the insert 4 on both sides of the insert 4. Both sides of the insert respectively abut against the groove inclined surfaces, and then, with the pressing of the outer ring or the inner ring, rise along the groove inclined surfaces to the position where the clamping groove is located. Both sides of the insert are respectively inserted into the first limiting groove and the second limiting groove, thereby achieving the effect of clamping and fixing.

[0032] Furthermore, as a preferred implementation manner rather than a limitation of this solution, the first limiting groove 111 is provided at the end of the outer ring 11 away from the bottom of the groove 2, and the second limiting groove 121 is provided at the end of the inner ring 12 away from the bottom of the groove 2. After the first limiting groove 111 and the second limiting groove 121 clamp and fix the insert 4, the insert 4 is separated from the bottom of the groove 2. The first limiting groove is provided at the end of the outer ring away from the bottom of the groove, increasing the distance between the first limiting groove and the bottom of the groove to accommodate inserts of different sizes. Smaller-sized inserts can move a longer distance along the groove inclined surface to the clamping groove during pressing, while larger-sized inserts can move a shorter distance to the clamping groove. After the insert is separated from the bottom, it is avoided that during the process of the outer ring and the inner ring fixing the insert, the bottom of the insert has already pressed against the bottom of the groove, causing damage to the insert.

[0033] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of the present solution but not a limitation, the first limiting groove 111 includes a first limiting groove upper inclined surface 1111 and a first limiting groove lower inclined surface 1112 inclined from the bottom of the first limiting groove to the direction of gradually expanding the opening, and the first limiting groove lower inclined surface 1112 is connected to the groove inclined surface 21. The groove inclined surface is connected to the first limiting groove lower inclined surface, so that the insert 4 can enter the first limiting groove lower inclined surface along the groove inclined surface, thereby entering the first limiting groove. Similarly, the second limiting groove 121 includes a second limiting groove upper inclined surface 1211 and a second limiting groove lower inclined surface 1212 inclined from the bottom of the second limiting groove to the direction of gradually expanding the opening, and the second limiting groove lower inclined surface 1212 is connected to the groove inclined surface 21. The groove inclined surface is connected to the second limiting groove lower inclined surface, so that the insert can enter the second limiting groove lower inclined surface along the groove inclined surface, thereby entering the second limiting groove.

[0034] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention but not a limitation, the angle between the lower inclined surface 1112 of the first limit groove and the inclined surface 21 of the groove is an obtuse angle. When the insert is pressed and moves along the inclined surface of the groove to the junction of the lower inclined surface of the first limit groove and the inclined surface of the groove, since the angle between the lower inclined surface of the first limit groove and the inclined surface of the groove is an obtuse angle, the insert will follow the lower inclined surface of the first limit groove and enter the first limit groove.

[0035] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention but not limiting, the end of the outer ring 11 or the inner ring 12 away from the groove 2 is consistent in height with the insert 4 fixed by the slot 3. The end of the outer ring or the inner ring away from the groove is consistent in height with the insert fixed by the slot, so that the position of the insert is flush with the position of the bezel body, and the surface of the bezel body is flat.

[0036] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention but not limiting, the groove 2 includes an annular groove 22 arranged along the bezel body 1 and for placing a plurality of inserts 4. In this embodiment, the annular groove is in a circular ring shape, and a plurality of inserts can slide cyclically along the circular groove 22. The insert does not need to be placed at a specific position in the groove, and can be pressed by the outer ring or the inner ring as long as it is placed on the circular groove, and the process of placing the insert is simple.

[0037] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention but not limiting, a force plane 13 is provided on the outer ring 11 or the inner ring 12 for bearing the corresponding pressing pressure when pressing the outer ring 11 or the inner ring 12. The force plane is used as a force plane in contact with the pressing mechanism providing the pressing pressure when pressing the outer ring or the inner ring, so as to avoid the sharp parts or edges being stressed, resulting in excessive pressure and damage to the ring body.

[0038] Furthermore, as a preferred implementation manner rather than a limitation of this solution, the bezel body 1 is integrally formed with the outer bezel 11 and the inner bezel 12. The integral formation of the bezel body with the outer bezel and the inner bezel can have good mechanical properties and is not easily damaged when pressed.

[0039] This embodiment also discloses a watch, including the press-fit bezel as described above.

[0040] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows:

[0041] This embodiment provides a press-fit bezel, including a bezel body. A groove for placing inserts is provided on the bezel body. The outer bezel and the inner bezel for forming the groove are provided on both sides of the groove. When the outer bezel or the inner bezel is pressed towards the insert, a clamping groove for fixing the insert is formed between the outer bezel and the inner bezel. The insert is placed on the groove, and then pressure is applied to the outer bezel or the inner bezel, so that the outer bezel or the inner bezel is pressed towards the insert, and the insert is fixed on the clamping groove. In this way, all the inserts in the groove can be fixed by pressing the outer bezel or the inner bezel, without fixing each insert one by one. The inlay process is not only simple and fast, but also can firmly fix the insert and is not easily detached.
