[0038] Milanese watchband is a special watchband design for watches, usually woven from metal materials such as stainless steel wire, with high strength, corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance, etc. However, the existing Milanese watchband is limited by processing precision and cost, etc., and the side surface is prone to scratching, trapping hair, trapping clothes and other scratching phenomena, resulting in poor user wearing experience and certain safety hazards.

[0039] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 1 to 3 The watchband provided by the application is a Milanese watchband, which comprises a Milanese band body 1, a first flexible protective member 2 and a second flexible protective member 3. Wherein, the Milanese band body 1 has opposite first side 4 and second side 5 in the length direction X; the first flexible protective member 2 is wrapped around the first side 4; the second flexible protective member 3 is wrapped around the second side 5.

[0040] The Milanese band body 1 is the main part of the watchband, which can be woven from stainless steel wire or other high-strength metal materials. This design not only looks beautiful, but also has good flexibility and durability, which can adapt to the changes of different wrist shapes.

[0041] The first flexible protective member 2 and the second flexible protective member 3 are designed to wrap the two sides of the Milanese band body 1, i.e. the first side 4 and the second side 5. The selection of flexible protective member can consider the softness, wear resistance and safety of human skin contact of the material, to ensure that the user feels comfortable and does not cause skin discomfort or allergic reaction when wearing for a long time. For example, the flexible protective member can be made of soft rubber, silicone, cloth, leather and other materials.

[0042] The meaning of wrapping described in the text will be explained below by taking the first flexible protective member 2 as an example, which can be understood as: the Milanese band body 1 has upper and lower surfaces, the cross-sectional shape of the first flexible protective member 2 is generally U-shaped, and the upper and lower surfaces of the first side 4 of the Milanese band body 1 are clamped in the first flexible protective member 2.

[0043] The watchband provided by the application can effectively prevent the watchband edge from directly contacting the user's skin or clothes by adding flexible protective members on both sides of the Milanese band body 1, thereby greatly reducing the probability of scratching, trapping hair, trapping clothes and other scratching problems. This not only improves the safety of wearing, but also improves the overall wearing comfort.

[0044] It can be understood that although the flexible protective member adds an additional layer, due to the softness of its material itself, it will not affect the original bending performance of the Milanese band body 1. This means that even with the added protection, the watchband can still freely conform to the curve of the wrist, without affecting its comfort and aesthetic appearance.

[0045] In addition, compared with redesigning the entire watchband structure or using more expensive materials to solve the scratching problem, the present application achieves the goal through simple structural improvement. The addition of the flexible protective piece is relatively simple, and the additional cost in the production process is low.

[0046] In one embodiment, the first flexible protective piece 2 and the second flexible protective piece 3 are both leather pieces.

[0047] Leather has good softness and elasticity, can well fit the shape of the Milanese band 1, and at the same time reduce the irritation of the edge to the skin, avoid scratching, trapping hair, trapping clothes and other scratching problems. And the leather has a certain sweat absorption capacity, can absorb the sweat on the wrist, keep the wearing area dry, reduce the discomfort and odor caused by sweat, and is suitable for long-term wearing.

[0048] The leather material can provide a variety of color and texture choices, which can be customized according to different design needs, increasing the visual difference and beauty of the watchband. The present application can significantly improve the overall texture and beauty of the watchband by combining the Milanese band 1 of different materials with the leather piece.

[0049] Compared with other high-grade materials, the cost of leather is relatively low, which helps to control the manufacturing cost of the entire product. And the processing technology of leather is relatively mature and easy to operate, which does not require complex equipment or technology, which also helps to reduce costs.

[0050] Therefore, by using leather pieces as the first flexible protective piece 2 and the second flexible protective piece 3, the present application not only effectively solves the scratching problem of traditional Milanese watchbands, but also improves the comfort and beauty of wearing, and performs well in cost control and value enhancement.

[0051] In one embodiment, a first adhesive layer is provided between the first flexible protective piece 2 and the first side 4 of the Milanese band 1.

[0052] The first adhesive layer can be polyurethane glue, acrylic glue, etc. The adhesive can be evenly distributed on the contact surface to ensure the consistency of the adhesion strength between the first flexible protective piece 2 and the Milanese band 1, and avoid local delamination. The use of adhesive in the present application can quickly fix the first flexible protective piece 2 on the Milanese band 1, reducing the time and complexity of operation, thereby effectively simplifying the manufacturing process and improving production efficiency. Of course, other fixing methods such as sewing or hot pressing can also be used to ensure the stability and reliability of the structure.

[0053] In one embodiment, a second adhesive layer is provided between the second flexible protective piece 3 and the second side 5 of the Milanese band 1.

[0054] The second adhesive layer can be polyurethane glue, acrylic glue, etc. The adhesive can be uniformly distributed on the contact surface to ensure the consistency of the adhesion strength between the second flexible protective piece 3 and the Milanese band body 1, and to avoid local delamination. The use of the adhesive in the application can quickly fix the second flexible protective piece 3 on the Milanese band body 1, reducing the time and complexity of operation, thereby effectively simplifying the manufacturing process and improving the production efficiency. Of course, other fixing methods such as sewing or hot pressing can also be used to ensure the stability and reliability of the structure.

[0055] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 1 to 3 Fig. 6, the Milanese band body 1 has a third side 6 in the width direction Y, and the third side 6 is provided with a magnetic piece 7.

[0056] The Milanese band body 1 is woven from metal materials (such as stainless steel wires), which have high strength, corrosion resistance, and high temperature resistance, etc. The magnetic piece 7 is arranged on the third side 6 of the Milanese band body 1, and the magnetic piece 7 is used to generate a magnetic attraction with the Milanese band body 1 of the other watchband, so as to quickly adjust the tightness of wearing.

[0057] In one example, the watch can include Figure 2 and Figure 3 two watchbands as shown in Figs. 6 and 7, and each of the third sides 6 of the two watchbands has a magnetic piece 7. When wearing the watch, the magnetic piece 7 on one watchband can be magnetically attracted to the Milanese band body 1 of the other watchband, so as to quickly adjust the tightness of the watchband. Due to the presence of the magnetic piece 7, the adjustment process is very simple and can be completed by simply attaching it. Of course, the watch can also include two watchbands as shown in Figs. 8 and 9. Figure 2

[0058] Therefore, by arranging the magnetic piece 7 on the third side 6 of the Milanese band body 1, the application realizes the quick adjustment of the watchband and the optimization of the tightness of wearing. This design not only makes the wearing of the watchband more convenient and comfortable, but also increases the functionality and aesthetics of the watchband.

[0059] In one embodiment, the Milanese band body 1 includes a plurality of metal wires, and at least part of the surfaces of the plurality of metal wires are coated with a magnetic layer.

[0060] The Milanese band body 1 is woven from a plurality of metal wires (such as stainless steel wires), which have high strength, corrosion resistance, and high temperature resistance, etc.

[0061] The magnetic layer is coated on the surface of at least part of the plurality of metal wires. The magnetic layer can be made of a magnetic material (such as iron, nickel, cobalt, etc.). In one example, a layer of magnetic material can be deposited on the surface of the metal wire through an electroplating process. In one example, a layer of magnetic coating can be coated on the surface of the metal wire through a spraying process. In one example, the metal wire can be immersed in a solution containing a magnetic material to make the surface of the metal wire adhere to the magnetic layer.​

[0062] The application can significantly enhance the magnetism of the Milanese band 1 by coating the magnetic layer on the surface of the metal wire of the Milanese band 1, so that the interaction force between the Milanese band 1 and the magnetic piece 7 is stronger, thereby improving the magnetic attraction effect, effectively preventing the watch from accidentally falling off during use, and improving the stability of wearing.

[0063] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the magnetic piece 7 includes a shell 8 and a magnet. The shell 8 is connected to the third side 6 of the Milanese band 1, and the shell 8 is provided with a receiving cavity; the magnet is limited in the receiving cavity.

[0064] The shell 8 can be made of metal, plastic or other suitable materials to ensure good corrosion resistance and wear resistance. The shell 8 can be connected to the third side 6 of the Milanese band 1 by adhesion, mechanical fixation or other methods. The shape of the shell 8 can be square, circular or other suitable shapes.

[0065] The size of the receiving cavity inside the shell 8 can match the size of the magnet to ensure that the magnet can be stably limited therein and avoid loosening. The magnet can be made of high-performance permanent magnetic materials such as neodymium iron boron, ferrite, etc., which have strong magnetism and good corrosion resistance. The shape of the magnet can be circular, square or other suitable shapes, which match the shape of the receiving cavity.

[0066] The application sets the magnetic piece 7 including the shell 8 and the magnet on the third side 6 of the Milanese band 1, which not only enhances the magnetism and improves the magnetic attraction effect, but also effectively prevents the watch band from falling off and improves the stability of wearing.

[0067] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 3 to 5 , the shell 8 is provided with a clasp 9.

[0068] The clasp 9 is arranged at an appropriate position of the shell 8 to ensure that it can be conveniently passed through the magnetic piece 7 on the other watch band when worn. The shape of the clasp 9 can be circular, square, track-shaped or other suitable shapes. The clasp 9 can be made of metal, plastic or other suitable materials to ensure good corrosion resistance and wear resistance.

[0069] For example, the watch can include two watch bands as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 . When wearing the watch, Figure 2 the magnetic piece 7 on the middle watch band passes through the clasp 9 on the Figure 3 watch band, which can further prevent the watch band from falling off and improve the stability of wearing.

[0070] In some embodiments, the clasp 9 can rotate relative to the shell 8.

[0071] Specifically, as shown in Figures 3 to 5 The shell 8 is provided with a through hole 10, and the clasp ring 9 is rotationally connected in the through hole 10 of the shell 8.

[0072] The present application can make the magnetic member 7 on the other watchband more easily align and pass through the clasp ring 9 through the rotation design of the clasp ring 9, so that the wearing is quickly and conveniently completed, and the wearing convenience and user experience are further improved.

[0073] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 1 to 3 The Milanese band 1 also has a fourth side 11 opposite the third side 6 in the width direction Y, and the fourth side 11 is provided with a connecting piece 12 for rotationally connecting to the watch head.

[0074] The present application provides the connecting piece 12 on the fourth side 11 of the Milanese band 1, so that the connecting piece 12 can be rotationally connected to the watch head. The rotation design of the connecting piece 12 makes the watchband can be flexibly adjusted in angle, so as to adapt to different wrist shapes and wearing postures, thereby improving the comfort and stability of wearing.

[0075] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The connecting piece 12 is provided with a connecting through hole 13 connected to the watch head through a rotating shaft.

[0076] The diameter of the connecting through hole 13 on the connecting piece 12 can match the diameter of the rotating shaft, ensuring smooth rotation. The rotating shaft can be a metal shaft or other suitable material, ensuring good wear resistance and corrosion resistance.

[0077] The connecting through hole 13 on the connecting piece 12 of the present application is connected to the watch head through a rotating shaft, so that the watchband can be freely rotated relative to the watch head, thereby adapting to different wrist shapes and wearing postures, and improving the wearing convenience and comfort.

[0078] In one embodiment, the present application also provides a watch, comprising: a watch head and a watchband of the above-mentioned embodiments, the watchband being connected to the watch head.

[0079] For example, the watch can include Figure 2 and Figure 3 Two watchbands. When wearing the watch, Figure 2 The magnetic member 7 on the watchband passes through Figure 3 The clasp ring 9 on the watchband, and then the magnetic member 7 on one watchband and the Milanese band 1 of the other watchband are magnetically attracted to each other.

[0080] Of course, the watch can also include two Figure 2The shown watch band. When wearing the watch, the magnetic piece 7 on one watch band is magnetically attracted to the Milanese band body 1 of the other watch band.

[0081] Since the watch provided by the present application includes the watch band of the above-mentioned embodiments, all the technical effects of the watch band of the above-mentioned embodiments are possessed, which are not described here.

[0082] The above only is the preferred embodiment of the present application, and does not limit the embodiments of the present application.
