Device for adjusting the length of a bracelet
The invention relates to a bracelet lengthening device, comprising at least one adjusting assembly (1, 2) that is movable relative to a clasp cover (21), the adjusting assembly (1, 2) and the cover (21) being provided with a first and a second fastening element (23, 35′), respectively, for fastening them respectively in several positions that are able to bring about different bracelet lengths, characterized in that the adjusting assembly (1, 2) and the cover (21) are also provided with a first and a second indexing element (15, 35), respectively.
Clasp for a watch bracelet
A clasp for a watch bracelet including a cover connected on a first side to a first bracelet strand and on a second side to a second bracelet strand, a connection between the second bracelet strand and the cover of the clasp, the connection including a connecting link sliding in a longitudinal direction of the clasp between a first position and a second position. The clasp includes at least one first and one second bars mounted in the cover, and the connecting link includes a lever provided with a hook capable of moving from a first position wherein the hook is engaged with a first bar integral with the cover of the clasp, into a second position wherein the hook is released from the engagement thereof with the first bar and the link is free to slide so as to engage the second bar with a hook.
Automatic adjustment of wearable device band
An approach is provided that automatically adjusts a band of a wearable electronic device. The approach detects conditions, such as activity-based conditions and location-based conditions, and automatically adjusts the band of the wearable electronic device based on the detected conditions.
Flexible band clasp with communication device
A clasp is configured to permanently interlock around a flexible strip of material and includes first and second interlocking members. At least one interlocking member includes a Bluetooth communication device. Each interlocking member can include a plurality of hooks and a corresponding plurality of recesses, where the recesses of one interlocking member receive the hooks of the other interlocking member to secure a band within the clasp between the interlocking members. The recesses can be completely internal to the clasp to prevent external tampering. Each of the interlocking members can include various protrusions and ribs that compress and secure the band within the clasp, so as to prevent movement of the band between the interlocking members when interlocked.
