[0028] The following is a further detailed description of the specific implementation of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0029] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "inside", "outside", etc. used in the present invention to indicate the orientation or positional relationship are based on the positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the devices and elements referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0030] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "first", "second", etc. are used in the present invention to describe various information, but these information should not be limited to these terms, and these terms are only used to distinguish the same type of information from each other. For example, without departing from the scope of the present invention, "first" information may also be referred to as "second" information, and similarly, "second" information may also be referred to as "first" information.

[0031] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an embodiment of the utility model provides a watchband connecting buckle for connecting a watchband, the watchband connecting buckle includes a first fastener 10 and a second fastener 20, the first fastener 10 is used to be inserted into the watchband, the second fastener 20 is used to connect the end of the watchband, the first fastener 10 is provided with a protrusion 11 on the side facing the second fastener 20, and the protrusion 11 is provided with a first magnetic component 12; the second fastener 20 is provided with a groove 21 on the side facing the first fastener 10, and the groove 21 is provided with a second magnetic component 22; wherein, the first fastener 10 is attached to the second fastener 20, the protrusion 11 is embedded in the groove 21, and the first magnetic component 12 and the second magnetic component 22 attract each other.

[0032] Based on the above technical solution, when wearing a watch, the second fastener 20 is connected to one end of the watchband, the first fastener 10 is inserted into the watchband and can slide along the watchband, and the length of the watchband is adjusted according to the size of the wrist until the watchband is put on the wrist. At this time, the first fastener 10 is fixed to the watchband, and the raised portion 11 of the first fastener 10 corresponds to the groove portion 21 of the second fastener 20. When the first fastener 10 and the second fastener 20 are close to each other, due to the magnetic force of the first magnetic component 12 and the second magnetic component 22 (for example, the first magnetic component 12 is the N pole and the second magnetic component 22 is the S pole), the first fastener 10 and the second fastener 20 will automatically attract each other, and the raised portion 11 is accurately embedded in the groove portion 21 under the action of the magnetic force, such as Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the first fastener 10 and the second fastener 20 form a tight fit combination to form a watch band connecting buckle, and the first magnetic member 12 and the second magnetic member 22 attract each other inside, so that the first fastener 10 and the second fastener 20 are firmly connected, so that the watch can be worn simply and quickly. In summary, this embodiment utilizes the magnetic attraction of the two fasteners, which not only simplifies the wearing process of the watch, but also ensures the firmness and stability of the connection, and improves the comfort of wearing the watch.

[0033] In this embodiment, the shapes of the protrusion 11 and the groove 21 are not particularly limited and may be rectangular, circular, diamond, triangular or other irregular shapes, as long as the shape of the protrusion 11 can match the shape of the groove 21 and the protrusion 11 can be embedded in the groove 21. For example, Figure 1As described above, the shape of the protrusion 11 and the groove 21 are both rectangular. In this way, the protrusion 11 and the groove 21 can form a larger contact area, thereby enhancing the connection strength between the two, making the strap more secure during wearing and not easy to fall off or loosen.

[0034] In this embodiment, the first magnetic member 12 and the second magnetic member 22 can be made of permanent magnetic materials with strong magnetic force and good stability, such as neodymium iron boron (NdFeB), etc., to ensure a firm magnetic connection. The first magnetic member 12 and the second magnetic member 22 can be magnetic blocks, magnetic strips or magnetic sheets, and the structures and shapes of the two magnetic members are not specifically limited.

[0035] As an implementation method, Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the protrusion 11 is provided with a first installation groove 13 , and the first magnetic member 12 is embedded in the first installation groove 13 ; the groove portion 21 is provided with a second installation groove 23 , and the second magnetic member 22 is embedded in the second installation groove 23 .

[0036] It is understandable that, under the same other conditions, the larger the volume of the two magnetic parts, the stronger the magnetic field generated between them, and the greater the magnetic adsorption force. In this embodiment, the first magnetic part 12 and the second magnetic part 22 are both magnetic blocks, and the shape of the protrusion 11 and the groove part 21 are both rectangular. When the protrusion 11 and the groove part 21 are in contact, they can generate a strong magnetic attraction force, thereby ensuring the stability and firmness of the strap connector. By embedding the two magnetic parts in the corresponding mounting grooves respectively, the magnetic parts can be effectively prevented from shifting or falling off during the use of the strap connector. During the manufacturing process, the magnetic block can be easily embedded in the mounting groove; when it needs to be repaired or replaced, the magnetic block can also be easily removed from the mounting groove. Hiding the magnetic block in the mounting groove can also make the strap connector more beautiful in appearance.

[0037] As an implementation method, Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a limiting portion 14 is provided on a side of the first fastener 10 facing the second fastener 20 , and a limiting groove 24 is provided on a side of the second fastener 20 facing the first fastener 10 , and the limiting portion 14 is embedded in the limiting groove 24 .

[0038] Specifically, while the protrusion 11 is embedded in the groove 21, the limiting portion 14 is embedded in the limiting groove 24, so that when the first fastener 10 and the second fastener 20 are connected, in addition to the magnetic attraction, there is an additional physical connection point, which further enhances the stability of the connection between the first fastener 10 and the second fastener 20, and prevents the first fastener 10 and the second fastener 20 from accidentally loosening when the watch or the strap is subjected to external force (such as tearing). In this embodiment, the shape and size of the limiting portion 14 and the limiting groove 24 are precisely matched, and the limiting portion 14 can be smoothly embedded in the limiting groove 24 only when the first fastener 10 and the second fastener 20 are correctly aligned.

[0039] It is understandable that, since the main force acting on the strap during daily wear is lateral force, when the limiting portion 14 is embedded in the limiting groove 24, it can also limit the relative movement of the first fastener 10 and the second fastener 20 in the horizontal direction, preventing them from sliding relative to each other, making the strap more stable and not loose during daily wear.

[0040] As an implementation method, Figure 1 As shown, the limiting portion 14 is connected to the protruding portion 11 , and the height of the limiting portion 14 is greater than the height of the protruding portion 11 .

[0041] Specifically, the limiting portion 14 protrudes upward from the raised portion 11. Since the limiting portion 14 is relatively high, it can first be embedded in the limiting groove 24 of the second fastener 20 during connection, contact the limiting groove 24 and play a guiding role, ensuring that the raised portion 11 and the groove portion 21 can be correctly aligned and connected, thereby preventing misalignment. When wearing or adjusting the strap, there is no need to worry about the two fasteners becoming loose or misaligned, thereby increasing the comfort and convenience of using the strap.

[0042] As an implementation manner, the limiting portion 14 and the raised portion 11 are an integrally formed structure.

[0043] As an implementation manner, the limiting portion 14 extends along the width direction of the strap.

[0044] Specifically, since the limiting portion 14 extends along the width direction of the watchband (i.e., the transverse direction of the watchband), it can cover a wider area and form a more stable connection with the corresponding portion of the limiting groove 24 of the second fastener 20, increasing the contact area with the limiting groove 24, making the connection between the first fastener 10 and the second fastener 20 more secure and reducing the possibility of relative sliding. When the limiting portion 14 extends along the width direction of the watchband, the limiting portion 14 can provide stronger torsion resistance. Even if the watchband is subjected to a torsion or twisting external force, the limiting portion 14 can effectively resist such force and maintain the stability of the connection.

[0045] As an implementation method, Figure 1 and Figure 3 The second fastener 20 comprises a first side surface 201 and a second side surface 202 which are arranged opposite to each other. The first side surface 201 is provided with a notch 25 for a finger to buckle into, and the second side surface 202 is provided with a socket for a watch strap to pass through.

[0046] Specifically, the notch 25 on the first side 201 allows the user to easily insert a finger, thereby conveniently operating the second fastener 20, and the user can complete the operation more quickly and accurately when wearing or adjusting the watch strap, thereby improving the convenience of use. The jack on the second side 202 is used for inserting the watch strap, ensuring that the watch strap can be firmly connected to the second fastener 20.

[0047] As an implementation method, Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, a fixing groove 15 is provided on one side of the first fastener 10 facing away from the second fastener 20, a through hole 16 is provided on the side of the first fastener 10 for the strap to pass through the fixing groove 15, and the fixing groove 15 is provided with a fixing cover plate 17 for fixing the strap, and the fixing cover plate 17 can be flipped in the fixing groove 15.

[0048] Specifically, since the fixing cover plate 17 can be flipped in the fixing groove 15, after the watch strap passes through the through hole 16 and extends into the fixing groove 15, the watch strap is fixed by flipping the fixing cover plate 17, which further enhances the stability of the fixing of the watch strap. In this embodiment, the fixing groove 15 and the fixing cover plate 17 are closely matched, so that the watch strap will not be accidentally loosened during wearing.

[0049] As an implementation method, Figure 6 As shown, a clamping portion 18 is provided on one side of the fixed cover plate 17 facing the fixed groove 15 , and the clamping portion 18 is used to clamp the watch strap.

[0050] Specifically, when the fixed cover plate 17 is flipped to the fixed groove 15, the clamping portion 18 will fit tightly on the watchband, providing additional fastening force, thereby effectively preventing the watchband from sliding or loosening during wearing. In practical applications, the shape of the clamping portion 18 can be adjusted according to the thickness and material of different watchbands, for example, it can be a toothed structure. This design allows the watchband buckle to be applied to a variety of watchbands of different specifications and types, improving the versatility and practicality of the watchband buckle.

[0051] In this embodiment, the fixed cover plate 17 and the clamping portion 18 are an integrally formed structure and can be made of wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant materials. They can withstand long-term use and frequent flipping operations without being easily damaged, thereby ensuring the durability of the strap connector and extending its service life.

[0052] In a second aspect, an embodiment of the utility model provides a watch strap assembly, including a watch strap and a watch strap connecting buckle, wherein a first buckle 10 is passed through the watch strap, and a second buckle 20 is connected to the end of the watch strap.

[0053] Generally speaking, in the manufacture and assembly of watch accessories or watch straps, the watch strap connector buckle, as a component of the watch, can also be sold separately. Especially when the connector buckle needs to be replaced or upgraded, consumers usually want to buy a suitable separate accessory. Of course, in more cases, the merchant will put the first fastener 10 on the watch strap, connect the second fastener 20 to the end of the watch strap, assemble the watch strap and the watch strap connector buckle to form a watch strap assembly and sell them at the same time. The assembled watch strap assembly can be directly displayed to consumers so that consumers can see the actual effect of wearing the watch. Although the watch strap assembly is sold as a whole, the merchant usually also provides a separate watch strap or connector buckle as a replacement. In this way, when the user needs to replace or repair a certain part, he can still easily purchase a suitable accessory.

[0054] In a third aspect, an embodiment of the utility model provides a watch, which includes a dial, a strap connector and a strap assembly, wherein the dial and the strap are connected via the strap connector.

[0055] Specifically, the dial is the main display part of the watch, usually located on the front of the watch, used to display the time, usually including the hour hand, minute hand, second hand, and scale marks such as hour scale and minute scale. The dial is covered with a case, which is the outer shell of the watch and is used to protect the internal movement and parts from damage. The strap connector is a component that connects the strap and the case. The strap assembly includes a strap and a strap buckle. The strap is a component that fixes the watch on the wrist, usually made of leather, metal, rubber and other materials. The strap buckle is as described in this embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

[0056] It should be understood that the term "and / or" used in the present utility model specification and the appended claims refers to any combination of one or more of the associated listed items and all possible combinations, including these combinations. It should be noted that, in this article, the terms "include", "comprise" or any other variants thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or system including a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also includes other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or system. In the absence of further restrictions, an element defined by the sentence "including a..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article or system including the element.

[0057] The serial numbers of the embodiments of the utility model are only for description and do not represent the advantages and disadvantages of the embodiments. The above description is only a specific embodiment of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited to this. Any technician familiar with the technical field can easily think of various equivalent modifications or replacements within the technical scope disclosed by the utility model, and these modifications or replacements should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
