Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of watch technology, specifically to a quick-assembly watch with an adjustable strap length. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional watch strap length adjustment typically relies on two methods: one is by adding or removing the number of strap links, which requires special tools to remove the spring bars, making the process cumbersome and prone to scratching the strap; the other is by using the micro-adjustment holes on the clasp for limited adjustment, but the adjustment range is small. In addition, regardless of the method, the assembly process is equally complicated when the strap needs to be completely removed for cleaning, replacement, or to fit different wearers. There is a lack of a quick, tool-free disassembly and assembly mechanism, which results in a poor user experience and insufficient flexibility when adjusting the strap in daily life according to changes in wrist size, seasonal changes, or matching needs.

[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a watch strap structure that can achieve tool-free, quick length adjustment and support quick assembly and disassembly to solve the problems of inconvenient adjustment and cumbersome assembly and disassembly of existing watch straps.

[0020] To better explain and facilitate understanding of the present invention, the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0021] The quick-assembly watch with adjustable strap length proposed in this embodiment of the invention uses a length adjustment mechanism consisting of a sliding adjustable strap and a main strap body with positioning holes, and is equipped with an elastic snap-fit ​​component. This design aims to enable users to quickly and intuitively adjust the strap length and complete the strap assembly without tools.

[0022] To better understand the above technical solutions, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although exemplary embodiments of the present invention are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present invention can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that the present invention can be understood more clearly and thoroughly, and that the scope of the present invention can be fully conveyed to those skilled in the art.

[0023] Please see Figure 1-3 The present invention provides a technical solution: a quick-assembly watch with adjustable strap length, including a dial 8 and a detachable strap.

[0024] The watch strap includes the main strap body 1, the adjustment strap 2, the adjustment head 3, and the fastener 4.

[0025] The main belt 1 is a long strip structure with a hollow sliding cavity inside along its length. Multiple positioning holes are spaced apart on the side wall or top surface of the main belt 1 along its length.

[0026] The adjusting belt 2 is a strip-shaped component that is slidably inserted into the sliding cavity of the main belt body 1.

[0027] The adjustment head 3 is connected to one end of the adjustment belt 2 that extends into the main belt body 1.

[0028] The fastener 4 is a separate part used to insert into the positioning hole to achieve positioning.

[0029] This invention provides a quick-assembly watch with an adjustable strap length. During operation, when the strap length needs to be adjusted to fit different wrist sizes, the user simply moves or pushes the adjustment head 3. The adjustment head 3 causes the adjustment strap 2 to slide within the sliding cavity of the main strap body 1, thereby changing the length of the adjustment strap 2 extending beyond the main strap body 1, and thus altering the effective circumference of the entire strap. Once the strap reaches a comfortable position, the fixing member 4 is inserted into the currently aligned positioning hole on the main strap body 1. The fixing member 4 passes through the positioning hole, preventing the adjustment strap 2 from sliding further and locking the strap length. This adjustment process requires no tools and is intuitive and quick.

[0030] In some embodiments, a snap-fit ​​component is also included, which is disposed at one end of the adjustment band 2 near the dial 8.

[0031] The snap-fit ​​assembly enables quick connection and disconnection between the watch strap and the dial 8, replacing the traditional spring bar structure.

[0032] In some embodiments, the snap-fit ​​assembly includes a pair of lugs 9, a slot 10, a sleeve 7, a spring 6, and a locking tongue 5.

[0033] A pair of lugs 9 are fixedly connected to both sides of the dial 8, and are protruding lugs extending to the side.

[0034] The slot 10 is a notch formed on the inner wall of the lug 9.

[0035] The sleeve 7 is a tubular shell that is fixedly connected to the end of the adjusting belt 2.

[0036] Both the spring 6 and the locking tongue 5 are housed in the internal cavity of the sleeve 7.

[0037] The latch 5 is connected to the spring 6, which provides a spring force to the latch 5 that always points outward from the sleeve 7. The direction of this spring force is toward the slot 10 on the lug 9.

[0038] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, when the watch strap needs to be installed, the sleeve 7 at the end of the adjusting strap 2 is aligned with the gap between the lugs 9 and pushed in. When the locking tongue 5 contacts the edge of the lug 9, it will be pressed into the sleeve 7. When it is pushed further in until the locking tongue 5 is aligned with the slot 10 on the lug 9, the elastic force of the spring 6 will pop out the locking tongue 5 and lock it into the slot 10, thus completing the quick installation of the watch strap. When disassembling, simply push the locking tongue 5 upward to retract it and disengage it from the slot 10, and the watch strap can be pulled out from the lug 9. This structure realizes tool-free quick installation and disassembly.

[0039] In some embodiments, the mating surfaces of the locking tongue 5 and the slot 10 are mutually matching bevels.

[0040] Specifically, the end of the latch 5 is made into a bevel, and the upper edge of the slot 10 is also made into a corresponding guide bevel.

[0041] In some embodiments, one end of the adjustment belt 2 is provided with a connection hole.

[0042] The adjusting head 3 is provided with a plug part that matches the shape of the connecting hole. The plug part is inserted into the connecting hole and the two are fixedly connected by interference fit, adhesive or pin.

[0043] This plug-in structure allows the adjusting head 3 to be firmly connected to the adjusting belt 2, ensuring that the adjusting belt 2 can be reliably driven to move synchronously when the adjusting head 3 is pulled.

[0044] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the fixing element 4 is a positioning pin.

[0045] The adjusting head 3 is provided with a mounting hole perpendicular to the sliding direction.

[0046] When the adjusting belt 2 slides to the desired position, the positioning pin on the adjusting belt 2 will align with a positioning hole on the main belt body 1.

[0047] At this point, the positioning pin is passed through the positioning hole of the main belt 1 to achieve locking, fix the position of the adjusting belt 2, prevent it from moving, and ensure reliable locking.

[0048] In some embodiments, the main belt 1 has an elongated guide groove along its length.

[0049] The insertion part of the adjusting head 3 is nested in the guide groove and can slide along the guide groove.

[0050] The guide groove provides precise guidance for the movement of the adjustment head 3, preventing it from swaying; it also limits the vertical displacement of the adjustment head 3, making the connection between the adjustment head 3 and the main belt 1 more stable and the appearance smoother.

[0051] In some embodiments, the main strap 1 can be made of a soft material to automatically adapt to the shape of the wrist, or it can be made of a hard material molded to fit the shape of the wrist, and then a soft pad is glued to the inner ring to increase comfort.

[0052] In some embodiments, the adjustment band 2 can be made of either a soft material or a sheet of rigid material, utilizing the elasticity of the sheet to adapt to the shape of the wrist.

[0053] In some embodiments, the adjusting head 3 and the fixing member 4 are determined according to the material properties of the main belt 1 and the adjusting belt 2: if the main belt 1 and the adjusting belt 2 are made of rigid materials, the adjusting head 3 and the fixing member 4 can be made of soft materials so as to play a fixing role through the positioning hole; if the main belt 1 and the adjusting belt 2 are made of soft materials, the adjusting head 3 and the fixing member 4 can be made of rigid materials so as to play a fixing role through the positioning hole.

[0054] In some embodiments, when the main strap 1 is made of iron, the fastener 4 can be removed, and a strong magnet can be embedded in the adjustment head 3 to fix the main strap 1 and the adjustment strap 2 by relying on magnetic force, thereby fixing the strap length.

[0055] The working process of this device is as follows: when a user receives a new watch or needs to have it worn by someone else, the watch strap is first installed.

[0056] Align the sleeves 7 at both ends of the watch strap with the lugs 9 on both sides of the dial 8 and push them inward. The locking tongue 5 inside the sleeve 7 is compressed back under the action of the inclined surface. When the locking tongue 5 moves to align with the slot 10 on the lug 9, it quickly pops out and locks into the slot 10 under the action of the internal spring 6, and the watch strap is installed.

[0057] Then adjust the length.

[0058] According to the user's wrist size, pull the positioning pin to separate it from the positioning hole, and then slide the adjustment head 3 exposed outside the main belt body 1 by hand.

[0059] The adjusting head 3 drives the adjusting belt 2 to slide within the sliding cavity of the main belt body 1 through the insertion part.

[0060] Pulling the adjustment head 3 outwards lengthens the extended portion of the adjustment band 2, increasing the total circumference of the watch band; pushing the adjustment head 3 inwards retracts the adjustment band 2, decreasing its circumference.

[0061] Users can try on and slide the device repeatedly until they find the most comfortable position.

[0062] After determining the length, keep the adjusting head 3 stationary and observe which positioning hole on the main belt body 1 the mounting hole on the adjusting head 3 aligns with.

[0063] Press the positioning pin and insert it into the positioning hole on the main belt 1 until it is fully inserted.

[0064] At this time, the length of the adjusting belt 2, the main belt body 1 and the adjusting head 3 is fixed by interlocking through the positioning pin.

[0065] If you need to make a slight adjustment to the length during wearing, simply pull the positioning pin outward, slide the adjustment head 3 back to the new position, and then press the positioning pin until it is aligned with the new positioning hole.

[0066] To completely remove the watch strap for cleaning or replacement, simply push the adjustment strap 2 upwards while the strap is in the installed state. The locking tongue 5 inside the sleeves 7 on both sides will retract inwards due to the inclined surface, and the spring 6 will be compressed, eventually disengaging it from the slot 10 on the lug 9, allowing the entire watch strap to be removed from the dial 8.

[0067] The entire adjustment and assembly process of this watch requires no special tools, and is fast, intuitive, reliable, and easy to use.
