BRACELET CLASP
A bracelet clasp (1) including a strip (2), a first end (20) whereof is hinged to a first end (30) of a first bracelet strand (3), and the second end (21) of the strip (2) is free, said strip (2) having a cut-out (5) forming at least a rigid portion (22) and two opposing deformable portions (23, 24), each including a hook (6, 6′) arranged to engage with a hole (40) in a second bracelet strand (4) and to lock the clasp on said second strand (4), simultaneous pressures exerted on the deformable portions (23, 24) resulting in the unlocking of the clasp.
Wearable electronic device assembly
A wearable electronic device assembly has a strap attached to the device for attaching the device to a wearer, and a connector for securing two overlapping end regions of the strap together. The connector has first and second parts configured to be secured together with the two overlapping end regions of the strap extending between them, to secure the two end regions together. The first part has a projection arranged to extend through or adjacent to the strap. The second part has a main body having an aperture to receive the projection of the first part, and a securement part movable with respect to the main body between a released position and a securement position. The projection is retained in the aperture to secure the first part of the connector to the second part of the connector.

Article of footwear having an upper with separately securing medial and lateral side portions
An article of footwear comprises a sole, and an upper that has a medial side portion extending from the medial side of the sole with a first distal end remote from the medial side. The upper has a lateral side portion extending from the lateral side of the sole with a second distal end remote from the lateral side. The upper may include a support member extending at least partially across the foot-receiving surface with a first end remote from the medial side. The medial and lateral side portions wrap at least partially around a foot with the first distal end securable proximal to the lateral side, and the second distal end separately securable proximal to the medial side. An article of footwear has cables with proximal ends fixed to one side of the upper and that extend through looped cables on an opposite side of the upper.
Orthotic device with snap fit cuff and latch mechanism
An orthotic device including a frame assembly and a support structure. The frame assembly includes at least one frame having a first frame opening and a second frame opening. The support structure assembly includes at least one support structure supported by the at least one frame. The at least one support structure includes a mounting portion; a slide engagement member supported by the mounting portion configured to engage the first frame opening; and, at least one snap engagement member supported by the mounting portion configured to engage the second frame opening. The slide engagement member and the at least one snap engagement member are integrally formed with the mounting portion. In another embodiment the orthotic device includes a latch mechanism including a lever assembly, a draw bar, a chafe, a catch, and a first snap fit ledge.
Latching device
A watercraft includes a plurality of separable body sections (2101, 2102, 2103, 2104, 2105, 2106) configured for assembly into a single assembled structure (2100) having a first length, and for packing into a packed structure (3000) having a second length smaller than the first length. The single assembled structure may be held together using latching devices, one or more of the latching devices including a latch unit comprising a latch support, a spring mount and a band spring, the band spring having a first spring end and a second spring end, wherein the latch support includes a latch and a first shaft positioned in relationship to the latch, the first shaft configured for rotatably mounting the first spring end of the band spring, and the spring mount includes a second shaft configured for rotatably mounting the second spring end of the band spring.
Strap adjustments via sensors
Example implementations relate to a display and strap with sensors. In some examples, an apparatus may comprise a strap, a pressure sensor coupled to the strap, and a display coupled to the strap. In some examples, the apparatus may include a tensioner mechanism coupled to the strap and a motor coupled to the tensioner mechanism. The motor may actuate the tensioner mechanism to adjust the strap to a particular amount of tension, and the particular amount of tension may be based on an amount of pressure detected by the pressure sensor.
