DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with 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 intended to limit the present invention.

[0027] like Figure 1 , which is a schematic diagram of the structure of the buckle for adjusting the tightness of a watch band provided by an embodiment of the present invention, and can be applied to the technical field of wearable devices, especially in watches. Figure 2As shown, the push-to-adjust strap buckle in this embodiment includes a buckle base 1 and a face cover 2, and one end of the face cover 2 is pivotally fixed to the buckle base 1 through a first pin shaft 3. The face cover 2 can be fastened to the buckle base 1 by rotating around the first pin shaft 3, or can be detached from the buckle base 1 by rotating around the first pin shaft 3 to increase or decrease the total length of the push-to-adjust strap buckle, thereby achieving wearing.

[0028] The above-mentioned buckle for adjusting the tightness of the strap by pressing further comprises an elastic driving component 4, a locking component 5 and a rack member 6, and the rack member 6 is used to be assembled to the tail end of the strap to achieve the connection between the buckle and the strap. In addition, the rack member 6 is provided with a sawtooth structure 61, and the sawtooth structure 61 is arranged along the length direction of the strap.

[0029] Furthermore, the locking assembly 5 includes a locking member 51 and a gear 52, and the gear 52 is rotatably mounted in the face cover 2 through the locking member 51, for example, the gear 52 is fixedly connected to the locking member 51 and rotates synchronously with the locking member 51, and the locking member 51 is pivotally fixed in the face cover 2 in a manner that it can rotate around its axial direction. Of course, the locking member 51 is preferably pivotally fixed in the face cover 2 in a manner perpendicular to the plane where the face cover 2 is located, that is, the locking member 51 can rotate around the vertical direction of the face cover 2, and at the same time, the locking member 51 can be perpendicular to the length direction of the face cover 2.

[0030] Furthermore, when the gear 52 and the locking member 51 are assembled into the face cover 2, the gear 52 is meshed with the serrated structure 61 of the rack member 6. Since the gear 52 is rotatable, the rack member 6 will synchronously drive the gear 52 to rotate when sliding in the face cover 2. In practical applications, the rack member 6 can be limited by the gear 52, so that the rack member 6 slides in a preset direction in the face cover 2 (preferably slides along the length direction of the face cover 2, which can increase the sliding stroke of the rack member 6 and thus increase the adjustment range of the tightness of the watchband), or a guide structure for limiting the rack member 6 is provided in the face cover 2, for example, a guide slot is provided on the outer wall of the rack member 6 along the length direction of the watchband, and a guide edge adapted to the guide slot is provided in the face cover 2, and the guide edge is inserted into the guide slot to realize the positioning and guiding of the rack member 6.

[0031] In particular, the elastic drive assembly 4 is installed in the cover 2, and the elastic drive assembly 4 includes a switch member 41, and the switch member 41 has a buckle structure adapted to the locking member 51. Moreover, when the switch member 41 is in a free state (i.e., the switch member 41 is not subjected to external force and is only subjected to elastic force), the buckle structure is clamped and fixed to the locking member 51, thereby preventing the gear 52 from rotating. Since the gear 52 is engaged with the sawtooth structure 61 of the rack member 6, the rack member 6 can be locked and fixed in the cover 2.

[0032] When adjusting the tightness of the strap, the switch member 41 can be pressed to disengage the buckle structure of the switch member 41 from the locking member 51, thereby releasing the gear 52, so that the rack member 6 can slide along the length of the strap in the cover 2. Figure 4 shown.

[0033] The above-mentioned buckle for adjusting the tightness of the strap is achieved by arranging the locking component 5 and the elastic driving component 4 in the face cover 2, and the switch member 41 prevents the gear 52 from rotating, so that the rack member 6 can be locked and fixed. The structure is simple and reliable, and the rack member 6 can be released by pressing the switch member 41, so that the rack member 6 can slide and retract in the face cover 2 to adjust the tightness of the strap. The operation is convenient and fast, and the locking component 5 and the elastic driving component 4 will not increase the overall volume of the buckle, nor will they limit the design of the appearance of the face cover 2, thereby reducing the impact on the designability of the appearance of the face cover 2 and ensuring the beautiful appearance of the buckle.

[0034] Furthermore, the above-mentioned push-to-adjust strap buckle adopts the method of meshing the gear 52 with the serrated structure 61 of the rack member 6, which not only achieves the function of adjusting the tightness of the strap, but also makes the appearance of the buckle more beautiful, thereby adding mechanical elements and improving the attractiveness of the appearance design.

[0035] In one embodiment of the present invention, a guide groove 62 is provided at one end of the rack member 6 away from the watch band, and the guide groove 62 is provided along the length direction of the watch band, and the two sides of the guide groove 62 respectively have a sawtooth structure 61. In addition, a limit pin 21 is provided in the face cover 2, and the limit pin 21 is adapted to the guide groove 62, and at least a part of the limit pin 21 is inserted into the guide groove 62, so as to guide the rack member 6, and at the same time limit the travel range of the rack member 6, so as to prevent the rack member 6 from slipping out of the face cover 2, or passing through the face cover 2 to the other end of the face cover 2.

[0036] In practical applications, two limit pins 21 can be provided, and the two limit pins 21 are distributed along the length direction of the face cover 2, and at least a portion of the two limit pins 21 are respectively inserted into the guide groove 62 of the rack member 6. Since the limit pin 21 is adapted to the guide groove 62, the rack member 6 can slide reliably along the length direction of the face cover 2 by being limited by the two limit pins 21. Moreover, due to the limitation of the two limit pins 21, the rack member 6 will not move in the width direction of the face cover 2, which can make the sliding of the rack member 6 more reliable and stable. Of course, when using one limit pin 21, the rack member 6 can be limited in cooperation with the gear 52, which can also make the rack member 6 slide reliably and stably along the length direction of the face cover 2.

[0037] The serrated structure 61 of the above-mentioned rack member 6 is preferably recessed inwardly, so that when the gear 52 is meshed with the serrated structure 61 of the rack member 6, the gear 52 can be used to limit the up and down directions of the rack member 6 (that is, the vertical direction of the face cover 2, which is also the vertical direction of the plane where the gear 52 is located) to prevent the rack member 6 from moving up and down and affecting the meshing connection with the gear 52.

[0038] The face cover 2 of this embodiment includes a cover body 22 and a bottom plate 23, wherein the bottom plate 23 is detachably mounted in the cover body 22, and the elastic drive assembly 4 and the locking assembly 5 are respectively located between the cover body 22 and the bottom plate 23. The bottom plate 23 can be fixed to the cover body 22 by bolts, which is convenient and quick to operate, and can improve the connection strength between the bottom plate 23 and the cover body 22, making the structure more solid and reliable. The face cover 2 can greatly reduce the difficulty of assembly and effectively improve the assembly efficiency by setting the bottom plate 23, that is, the locking assembly 5 and the elastic drive assembly 4 can be first installed on the bottom plate 23, and then assembled to the cover body 22 through the bottom plate 23, and the locking assembly 5 and the elastic drive assembly 4 are assembled and fixed to the face cover 2.

[0039] In another embodiment of the present invention, the locking assembly 5 includes two gears 52 and two locking members 51, and each gear 52 is installed in the face cover 2 in a manner perpendicular to the face cover 2 through a locking member 51, so that the two gears 52 can be rotatably assembled. The two gears 52 are distributed along the length direction perpendicular to the face cover 2, the rack member 6 is located between the two gears 52, and the sawtooth structures 61 on both sides of the guide groove 62 of the rack member 6 are respectively engaged with the two gears 52, so that the two gears 52 can be limited by the sawtooth structures 61 on both sides of the rack member 6, so that the rack member 6 does not move in the left and right directions.

[0040] Specifically, the locking member 51 is cylindrical, and has pivot joints 511 (specifically, a convex structure with a circular cross-section) at both ends of the locking member 51. The two pivot joints 511 are coaxial and coincide with the axis of the locking member 51 respectively. In this way, when the two pivot joints 511 are pivotally rotated, the locking member 51 can rotate around its axis, thereby ensuring the rationality of the structural design.

[0041] In addition, two corresponding pivot holes 24 are respectively provided on the above-mentioned cover body 22 and the bottom plate 23, and each pivot hole 24 is respectively adapted to the pivot joint 511 of the necking member 5, so that the two locking members 51 can be pivotally fixed in the face cover 2, that is, in the cover body 22, by inserting the pivot joints 511 at both ends into the two pivot holes 24 on the cover body 22 and the bottom plate 23 respectively. Such a structure is simple and reliable, and will not affect the smooth rotation of the locking member 51, and can also greatly reduce the difficulty of the assembly operation.

[0042] Furthermore, the cover body 22 includes a support frame 223 arranged in a W shape, the support frame 223 is parallel to the bottom plate 23, and there is a gap between the support frame 223 and the top surface of the cover body 22. The support frame 223 is located in the center of the cover body 22 and is arranged along the length direction of the face cover 2, and the two pivot holes 24 of the cover body 22 are respectively located at the two ends of the middle beam of the support frame 223 (the support frame 223 includes three beams arranged along the length direction, and the middle beam is the middle beam), so that the two pivot holes 24 of the middle beam can be used to achieve pivotal fixation with the two locking members 51.

[0043] In addition, one end of the above-mentioned limit pin 21 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate 23 and is arranged vertically with the bottom plate 23, and a limit hole 224 is provided in the middle of the middle cross beam of the support frame 223, so when the bottom plate 23 is assembled to the cover 22, the end of the limit pin 21 away from the bottom plate 23 is matched and connected with the limit hole 224 to limit and fix the two ends of the limit pin 21, so that the assembly strength of the limit pin 21 is higher, and reliable limit guidance of the rack member 6 is achieved. In addition, when the rack member 6 is meshed and connected to the gear 52, the lower surface of the rack member 6 is close to or in contact with the bottom plate 23, and the upper surface of the rack member 6 is close to or in contact with the support frame 223, so that the rack member 6 can be limited to prevent the rack member 6 from moving up and down.

[0044] The support frame is preferably detachably mounted and fixed to the cover body 22 to facilitate assembly. For example, locking holes are provided at both ends of the cross beams on both sides of the length direction of the support frame 223, and the support frame 223 is locked and fixed to the cover body 22 by screws passing through the two ends of the two cross beams.

[0045] Of course, in actual applications, the locking member 51 can also be pivotally fixed in the cover 2 by other connection methods, which can be determined according to actual conditions. For example, an annular groove is provided at one end of the locking member 51 facing the bottom plate 23, and a clamping edge adapted to the annular groove is provided on the bottom plate 23, and the clamping edge cooperates with the annular groove to achieve pivotal fixation. The clamping edge can be specifically formed by the side wall of the U-shaped groove connected to the side of the bottom plate 23, and the annular groove can be inserted into the groove opening of the U-shaped groove.

[0046] Further, each locking member 51 is respectively provided with a first step 512 and a second step 513, and the first adjustment 512 and the second adjustment 513 are located between the two pivot joints 511. Specifically, the cross-sections of the first step 512 and the second adjustment 513 are both square, and the second step 513 is adapted to the buckle structure of the switch member 41, so that the switch member 41 can be snapped to the second step 513 of the locking member 51 through the buckle structure to lock and fix the locking member 51. Since the cross-section of the second adjustment 513 is square, it is conducive to the snap-in operation of the buckle structure of the switch member 41, and the locking member 51 can be reliably locked and fixed. In practical applications, the cross-section of the second step 513 can also be set in other shapes, such as a regular hexagon, a regular octagon, etc.

[0047] In addition, a square hole 521 is provided in the center of each gear 52, and the square hole 521 is adapted to the first step 512, so that each gear 52 can be coaxially connected to the locking member 51 by snapping the square hole 521 into the first step 512, and the square hole 521 cooperates with the first step 512 to achieve synchronous rotation with the locking member 51, thereby ensuring that the locking member 51 can effectively prevent the rotation of the gear 52, and then lock and fix the rack member 6.

[0048] Combination Figure 3 As shown, the elastic drive assembly 4 includes an ear needle 42 and two switch members 41, wherein the ear needle 42 is installed in the face cover 2. The two switch members 41 are respectively assembled and fixed on the side walls of the face cover 2 in a manner that they can move along the length direction perpendicular to the face cover 2, and the ends of the two switch members 41 inserted into the face cover 2 are respectively connected to the two ends of the ear needle 42, so that the operator can press the two switch members 41 with the thumb and index finger respectively, so that the two switch members 41 move toward each other and overcome the spring force and squeeze the ear needle 42, thereby making the locking member 51 disengage from the buckle structure. When the pressing force on the two switch members 41 is cancelled, the two switch members 41 can move back to back under the elastic restoring force of the ear needle 42, and the buckle structure of the switch member 41 is re-clamped to the locking member 51, and the rack member 6 is locked again.

[0049] In particular, each switch member 41 is provided with a connected square slot 411 and a clearance slot 412, and the buckle structure is composed of the square slot 411, so that the square slots 411 of the two switch members 41 are respectively snapped to the second steps 513 of the two locking members 51 under the pushing action of the ear pins 42, so as to lock and fix the locking members 51 and the gear 52. Of course, the shape and size of the square slot 411 can be adjusted according to the shape and size of the locking member 51.

[0050] Furthermore, to ensure that the square slot 411 can be separated from the second step 513 of the locking member 51 when the two switch members 41 are pressed, the escape groove 412 should be located on the side of the square slot 411 away from the ear pin 42. Thus, when the two switch members 41 are pressed, the two switch members 41 move toward the direction where the cover 2 is located and compress the ear pin 42, so that the second step 513 of the locking member 51 is separated from the square slot 411 and enters the escape groove 412, thereby releasing the position restriction of the locking member 51.

[0051] In addition, the cross section of the second step 513 is larger than the cross section of the first step 512, and when the locking member 51 is installed between the cover body 22 and the bottom plate 23, the second step 513 is located between the first step 512 and the bottom plate 23, so that the second step 513 can abut against one end of the gear 52, so that the gear 52 is not easy to move on the first step 512. Of course, the above-mentioned gear 52 is preferably assembled and fixed on the first step 512 in an interference fit (i.e., tight fit) manner.

[0052] To prevent the switch member 41 from affecting the rotation of the locking component 51, the air avoidance groove 412 should be larger than the square slot 411, so that when the second step 513 breaks away from the square slot 411 and enters the air avoidance groove 412, the inner wall of the air avoidance groove 412 does not touch the second step 513, thereby avoiding contact with the second step 513 and causing the locking component 51 to be unable to rotate smoothly in the air avoidance groove 412.

[0053] In one embodiment of the present invention, the buckle for adjusting the tightness of the strap by pressing further includes two driven gears 7 and two rotating members 8, and the two driven gears 7 are respectively fixedly connected to the two rotating gears 8 by fasteners to achieve synchronous movement with the two rotating gears 8. In addition, the two driven gears 7 are respectively installed in the face cover 2 in a rotatable manner through the two rotating members 8, and the two driven gears 7 are respectively meshed with the two gears 52, so when the rack member 6 slides in the face cover 2 along the length direction, the two gears 52 will respectively drive the two driven gears 7 to rotate, and the gears 52 and the driven gears 7 are synchronously driven to rotate by the rack member 6, making the appearance design more ornamental, and using the most simplified structure to add mechanical transmission elements to the appearance design can greatly improve the attractiveness of the appearance, making the appearance of the buckle more beautiful.

[0054] Of course, in order to increase the ornamental value of the clasp, a decorative piece can be installed on the side of the driven gear 7 facing away from the rotating member 8. In this way, when the rack member 6 drives the gear 52 and the driven gear 7 to rotate, the two decorative pieces mounted on the two driven gears 7 can be rotated synchronously. In this way, there is no need to set a driving member for driving the decorative piece to rotate, which not only ensures the simplification of the structure but also makes the appearance beautiful.

[0055] In particular, the cover body 22 includes a transparent member 221, and an opening 222 is provided on the top surface of the cover body 22.
