(29) FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram of connection between a sliding stop module and an unlock module according to this application. FIG. 8 is another schematic diagram of connection between a sliding stop module and an unlock module according to this application. FIG. 9 is a schematic diagram of assembly of a sliding stop module according to this application. FIG. 10 is a schematic diagram of assembly of a sliding stop module and an unlock module according to this application.

(30) As shown in FIG. 7 and FIG. 8, the sliding stop module 104 is engaged with the unlock module 105. In a manner of pressing two ends of the unlock module 105, a spring in the unlock module 105 drives the main toggle arm 114, and the main toggle arm 114 drives the auxiliary toggle arm 115 that is of the sliding stop module 104 and that is flexibly connected to the main toggle arm 114, so that two fixing poles 116 of the sliding stop module 104 move towards each other, and the watch clasp sliding holder 102 can slide back and forth.

(31) As shown in FIG. 9, when the sliding stop module 104 is engaged with the watch clasp case 101 by using the fixing hole 1012, the watch clasp sliding holder 102 is located between the sliding stop module 104 and the watch clasp case 101, and a sawtooth shape groove structure is disposed on a middle part of the watch clasp sliding holder 102. The fixing poles 116 of the sliding stop module 104 are away from each other. Each fixing pole 116 is engaged with the sawtooth shape groove structure. A position of the watch clasp sliding holder 102 is fixed.

(32) Optionally, the sawtooth shape groove structure of the watch clasp sliding holder 102 is divided into five adjustable levels, and an adjustable length of each level is 2.08 millimeters. A quantity of the adjustable levels and the adjustable length of each adjustable level may further be set based on an actual case. A specific length is not limited herein.

(33) As shown in FIG. 10, the sliding stop module 104 is engaged with the watch clasp case 101 by using the fixing hole 1012, the unlock module 105 is engaged with the watch clasp case 101 by using the fixing hole 1013, and the stop spring bar 103 is engaged with the watch clasp case 101 by using the fixing hole 1011. When the watch clasp sliding holder 102 is located between the sliding stop module 104 and the watch clasp case 101, the auxiliary toggle arm 115 of the sliding stop module 104 is located on an internal side of the main toggle arm 114 of the unlock module 105. When the unlock module is pressed, the two main toggle arms 114 move towards each other, to drive the auxiliary toggle arm 115 that is connected to the main toggle arm 114 to move closer, and the two fixing poles 116 that are connected to the auxiliary toggle arm 115 move towards each other, so that the two fixing poles 116 can slide in the sawtooth shape groove structure.

(34) Optionally, the stop spring bar 103 is fixed, by using an elastic device, to the fixing hole 1011 disposed on the watch clasp case 101. The size of the fixing hole 1011 and a size of the elastic device are the same. The stop spring bar 103 can adjust a length of the stop spring bar 103 by using the elastic device. It can be understood that, a diameter size of the elastic device of the stop spring bar 103 is the same as a diameter size of the fixing hole 1011, so that the stop spring bar 103 can be firmly fixed to the watch clasp case 101.

(35) It should be noted that, the sliding stop module 104 is engaged with the watch clasp sliding holder 102, a fixing module of the sliding stop module 104 is provided with a notch 117, and a position at which the watch clasp sliding holder 102 is engaged with the sliding stop module 104 is provided with a corresponding notch 117. The notch 117 is used to remove the sliding stop module 104 that is already engaged with the watch clasp case 101. Optionally, the notch 117 is semicircular, or may be further in another shape. This is not specifically limited herein.

(36) Optionally, the sliding stop module 104 includes an auxiliary toggle arm 115, a spring 118, and a sliding stop module enclosure 119. As shown in FIG. 11, auxiliary toggle arm 115 resets by using the spring 118. The fixing pole 116 is a part of the auxiliary toggle arm 115.

(37) Optionally, the unlock module 105 includes a main toggle arm 114, a spring 120, and an unlock module enclosure 121. The main toggle arm 114 resets by using the spring 120.

(38) Optionally, the fixing pole 116 and the auxiliary toggle arm 115 are detachably connected. A specific detachable connection manner may be threaded connection or engagement, or may further be another detachable connection manner. This is not specifically limited herein.

(39) For example, FIG. 11 is a schematic diagram of connection of some components that are of a sliding stop module and an unlock module and that are on a watch clasp sliding holder according to this application. As shown in FIG. 11, an auxiliary toggle arm 115 of the sliding stop module 104 is connected to a main toggle arm 114 of the unlock module 105 in a manner shown in the figure. The main toggle arm 114 of the unlock module 105 resets by using a spring 120 of the unlock module 105. When the main toggle arm 114 is pressed, two ends of a watch clasp case 101 are exposed, and the spring 120 is compressed. When the main toggle arm 114 is not pressed, the spring 120 extends, thereby driving the main toggle arm 114 to get back to a set initial position. When the auxiliary toggle arm 115 is driven by the main toggle arm 114, a spring 118 of the sliding stop module 104 is compressed. When the main toggle arm 114 is not pressed, the main toggle arm 114 resets, the auxiliary toggle arm 115 is not interfered with by external force anymore, and the spring 118 extends, thereby driving the auxiliary toggle arm 115 to get back to a set initial position and implementing a resetting function of the auxiliary toggle arm 115. When the main toggle arm 114 is pressed, two ends of a watch clasp case 101 are exposed, the auxiliary toggle arm 115 moves closer, and two fixing poles 116 (not shown in FIG. 11) that are located on the auxiliary toggle arm 115 move towards each other, so that the watch clasp sliding holder 102 releases a lock state, to implement a sliding function.

(40) FIG. 12 is a schematic diagram of assembly of an extension latch assembly of a watch clasp according to this application. FIG. 13 is a schematic diagram of assembly of some components in an extension latch assembly of a watch clasp according to this application.

(41) Optionally, the extension latch assembly 106 includes a first extension fastening component 1061, a second extension fastening component 1062, and a fixing spring bar shaft 1063. A size of one end of the first extension fastening component 1061 is the same as a size of a groove reserved at one end of the second extension fastening component 1062, and the one end of the first extension fastening component 1061 and the one end of the second extension fastening component 1062 are connected by using a rotating shaft The other end of the first extension fastening component 1061 is connected to an elastic fine-adjusting assembly 107, the other end of the second extension fastening component 1062 is connected to a watch clasp case 101, and rotation between the first extension fastening component 1061 and the second extension fastening component 1062 can form any angle. The fixing spring bar shaft 1063 is configured to fix the second extension fastening component 1062 to the watch clasp case 101.

(42) For example, with reference to FIG. 11 and FIG. 12, a size of one end of the first extension fastening component 1061 of the extension latch assembly 106 is the same as the size of the groove reserved at one end of the second extension fastening component 1062, and the one end of the first extension fastening component 1061 and the one end of the second extension fastening component 1062 are connected by using the rotating shaft. The rotating shaft is shown in FIG. 13. The rotating shaft and the fixing spring bar shaft 1063 are respectively located at two ends of the second extension fastening component 1062. The extension latch assembly 106 fixes a segment of the second extension fastening component 1062 to the watch clasp case 101 by using the fixing spring bar shaft 1063.
