[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of watch peripheral components, in particular to a watch buckle. Background Art
[0002] As is well known, there are more and more smart wearable devices launched in the past two years. Among them, smart watches are particularly valued by manufacturers and welcomed by consumers. The functions of smart watches are becoming more and more powerful. On the basis of ensuring powerful functions, users have higher and higher requirements for the wearing comfort, aesthetics and operation simplicity of smart watches.
[0003] At present, the strap design of smart watches continues the strap design of traditional watches. Taking the watch pin buckle as an example, the pin buckle should be one of the most commonly seen watch buckles by people. It can adjust the circumference of the watch strap by itself. However, the pin buckle type of watch buckle has the disadvantage of being easy to damage the strap. There is also a metal folding buckle. The action of taking off and putting on the watch every day only involves the folding buckle. Although it will not damage the strap and the surrounding of the holes, a significant defect of the folding buckle is that the folding mechanism is complex and requires setting corresponding engaging grooves and bosses and other components on the strap body, which occupies too much space on the strap and does not conform to the simplified design concept of smart watches and is difficult to meet the current market needs.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to solve the above technical problems. Content of the Utility Model
[0005] Aiming at the deficiencies existing in the above-mentioned prior art, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a watch buckle.

[0032] As Figures 1 to 7 shown, a watch buckle provided in this embodiment includes:
[0033] A first buckle body 1, one end of the first buckle body 1 is used to connect to the watch band, the other end of the first buckle body 1 is provided with a locking tongue 11 extending outwards, and a top locking position 12 is formed at the end of the locking tongue 11;
[0034] A second buckle body 2, one end of the second buckle body 2 is used to connect to the watch band, the other end of the second buckle body 2 is provided with a mating socket 21, the shape of the mating socket 21 corresponds to that of the locking tongue 11, such that the locking tongue 11 can be inserted into the mating socket 21. At least one locking block 22 is hinged at the position of the mating socket 21 of the second buckle body 2. One end of the locking block 22 is a locking head 221, and an elastic member 23 is provided between the locking head 221 and the inner cavity wall of the mating socket 21. Under the action of the elastic member 23, the locking head 221 always maintains a raised state, and after the locking tongue 11 is inserted, the locking head 221 is snapped into the top locking position 12. The other end of the locking block 22 is a pressing portion 222, and the pressing portion 222 is placed outside the second buckle body 2;
[0035] The connecting component 3 is arranged at the connection between the first buckle body 1 and the watch band or at the connection between the second buckle body 2 and the watch band to meet the connection with the watch band. It should be noted that when the other buckle body without the connecting component 3 is connected to the watch band, an integral connection and molding is directly adopted, that is, it is integrally formed with the watch band.
[0036] In this embodiment, the first buckle body 1 and the second buckle body 2 mainly constitute components for connecting two watch bands. By inserting the first buckle body 1 and the second buckle body 2 into each other and with the combination of the locking tongue 11, the locking block 22 and the elastic member 23, it is not necessary to provide components such as holes on the watch band to change the shape of the watch band. At the same time, repeated unlocking of the watch band will no longer wear the watch band. Moreover, the plug-in structure form does not require too much area of the watch band, meeting the requirement of simple structure. And the operation can be easily completed only by touching the pressing part 222 on the locking block 22. Locking can be achieved only by directly inserting. Thus, the overall operation is very simple and is conducive to the use by different people.
[0037] During specific assembly and use, first connect the first buckle body 1 and the second buckle body 2 to the two watch bands of the watch respectively, and then it can be worn. When wearing, only align the locking tongue 11 with the insertion opening 21 and insert it. When inserting, the top locking position 12 of the locking tongue 11 will press the lock head 221 at one end of the locking block 22, causing the elastic member 23 to be compressed and deformed, making the locking block 22 rotate and the lock head 221 to avoid, so that the locking tongue 11 can be inserted in place. The top locking position 12 is specifically a locking convex protruding outwards or a locking groove recessed inwards. After the avoidance is completed, the elastic member 23 resets, making the lock head 221 placed at the locking convex or the locking groove, thus achieving locking. When it is necessary to remove the wear, that is, to unlock, only press the pressing part 222 at the other end of the locking block 22 with a finger, actively make the locking block 22 rotate again, make the lock head 221 avoid again, so that the lock head 221 is disengaged from the limitation between the locking convex and the locking groove, and the locking tongue 11 can be pulled out from the insertion opening 21 to complete unlocking. Among them, the elastic member 23 is a spring or an "S"-shaped elastic sheet.
[0038] Furthermore, the connecting component 3 of this embodiment is a component for connecting the watch band. Specifically, it needs to meet different wrist sizes, so the installation position of the connecting component 3 and the watch band needs to be adjusted. Therefore, its structure needs to be designed. To meet the corresponding structural design, the specific structure can adopt various forms:
[0039] For the first type, the connecting component 3 includes a first locking block 31 and a first through cavity 32 provided on the first buckle body 1 or the second buckle body 2. The first through cavity 32 is used for threading the watch strap. A first installation cavity 33 communicating with the first through cavity 32 is provided on the first buckle body 1 or the second buckle body 2. An "L"-shaped sliding groove 34 is provided on the cavity wall of the first installation cavity 33. A shaft rod 35 is inserted through the first locking block 31, and both ends of the shaft rod 35 are placed in the sliding groove 34. A first pressing block 36 for restraining the movement of the watch strap is provided at the bottom of the first locking block 31, and the top end of the first pressing block 36 extends beyond the bottom surface of the first locking block 31.
[0040] Among them, by manually pushing the first locking block 31, the position of the shaft rod 35 in the sliding groove 34 can be changed, so that the top end of the first pressing block 36 is placed inside the first through cavity 32 or moved out of the first through cavity 32, forming pressing against or disengaging from the watch strap. When the watch strap moves along the first through cavity 32 and reaches a suitable position, that is, when a suitable wearing distance is formed for the watch strap, the first locking block 31 can be pushed. At the same time, the first pressing block 36 is made of a soft rubber with friction, such as rubber or silica gel. Therefore, after being pushed to the lowermost end of the sliding groove 34, relying on the "L"-shaped sliding groove 34, the pressing of the first pressing block 36 against the watch strap can be maintained, and the movement of the watch strap can be restrained by the friction of the first pressing block 36. In normal use, there is no need to push the first pressing block 26 again.
[0041] Furthermore, in order to ensure that the first pressing block 36 does not come off during wearing, an arc-shaped fitting groove 37 is provided at the edge of the sliding groove 34 in this embodiment, and the fitting groove 37 is sized to allow the end face of the shaft rod 35 to be inserted. In this way, after locking, the movement of the shaft rod 35 can be avoided.
[0042] For the second type, the connecting component 3 includes a second locking block 301 and a second through cavity 302 provided on the first buckle body 1 or the second buckle body 2. The second through cavity 302 is used for threading the watch strap. A second installation cavity 303 communicating with the second through cavity 302 is provided on the first buckle body 1 or the second buckle body 2. A shaft hole 304 is provided on the cavity wall of the second installation cavity 303. A shaft rod 35 is inserted through the second locking block 301, and both ends of the shaft rod 35 are placed in the shaft hole 304. The diameter of the shaft hole 304 in the vertical direction is greater than the diameter of the shaft rod 35, so that the shaft rod 35 can move in the shaft hole 304 in the vertical direction. A second pressing block 305 for restraining the movement of the watch strap is provided at the bottom of the second locking block 301, and the top end of the second pressing block 305 extends beyond the bottom surface of the second locking block 301.
[0043] In use, when the watch band moves to a proper position within the second through cavity 302, the second locking block 301 is pressed downward. The side surface of the second locking block 301 and the cavity wall of the second installation cavity 303 are squeezed and deformed, thereby forming an interference fit. Moreover, the top end of the second pressing block 305 presses against the watch band, and the second pressing block 305 is made of a soft rubber with friction, such as rubber, silica gel and other materials. Thus, it can meet the requirement of inhibiting the watch band from moving again. Similarly, after the second pressing block 305 is pressed and combined with the watch band, there is no need to pry open the second locking block 301 again for wearing the watch band.
[0044] In addition, for any of the connection components 3 in this embodiment, the shaft rod 35 can be a spring bar, because in this way, the two ends of the spring bar can elastically retract to meet the requirement of installing the shaft rod 35 at the corresponding positions in the first installation cavity 33 and the second installation cavity 303.
[0045] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and do not limit the patent scope of the present invention accordingly. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made by using the content of the specification and drawings of the present invention, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, shall be similarly included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
