TIMEPIECE AND TIMEPIECE CASE
A timepiece includes: a casing; a light transmission part; a function part; and a glue adhering the light transmission part to the casing. The casing includes: a projection projecting from an inner circumferential surface and extending along a circumferential direction; and a protrusion protruding from the inner circumferential surface and determining a position of the light transmission part. A lateral surface of the light transmission part is adhered to the inner circumferential surface. A peripheral part of a bottom surface of the light transmission part is adhered to a top surface of the projection. An outer circumferential surface of the function part extends along an inner surface of the projection. A space is present in a facing region where the projection faces the function part along the light transmission part. The space is wider in a specific section including the protrusion than in a section different from the specific section.
ATTACHMENT METHOD USING ANODIC BONDING
The invention relates to an anodic bonding method for bonding two elements with an intermediate layer. The invention especially, but not exclusively, relates to an anodic bonding method for between a metallic element and a heterogeneous element, for example a glass, artificial sapphire or ceramic element. The specificity and aim of the present invention is to produce an assembly that is gas-tight and fluid-tight, solderless, brazing- or welder-free and without organic compound (glue). The present method has multiple industrial applications, including making it possible to attach a watch-glass, typically made of mineral glass, sapphire or transparent or translucent ceramics, to a bezel or case middle of a watch case using the anodic bonding technique.
DEVICE CASE AND TIMEPIECE
A device case includes a resin case body having an opening which is disposed on a viewing face of the case body and a step which is disposed on an interior of the opening and protruding further to the interior than an inner face of the opening. The device case further includes a windproof member having an outer diameter smaller than an inner diameter of the opening of the case body and larger than an inner diameter of the step; and an adhesive section bonding and fixing the windproof member at a position to seal the opening of the case body. The adhesive section has higher flexibility than the case body.
ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING WATERPROOF STRUCTURE
An electronic device includes a display, an upper housing surrounding at least a portion of a periphery of the display, a lower housing coupled to the upper housing, and a window waterproof member disposed between at least a portion of a periphery of the display and the upper housing to seal an aperture between the upper housing and the display. The window waterproof member includes an inner core having a specific strength, and an outer sheath having a specific elasticity, and an outer peripheral surface of which contacts at least part of the upper housing and an inner peripheral surface of which contacts at least part of the display while the outer sheath surrounding at least a portion of the inner core.

An outer circumferential surface of the function part extends along an inner surface of the projection. A space is present in a facing region where the projection faces the function part along the light transmission part. The space is wider in a specific section including the protrusion than in a section different from the specific section.
