Abstract
Case for a timepiece, including a middle part with an upper portion for receiving a movement surmounted by a dial carrying an upper sub-assembly or a crystal, and a lower portion cooperating with a back cover. This middle part includes a device for the removal or adjustment of this upper sub-assembly or crystal, which includes a plurality of pushers each movable in relation to this middle part in a sink of this middle part parallel to an axial direction, to transmit, directly or indirectly via a push plate, only to this dial, a force applied to each pusher in this direction from this lower portion and transmitted by this dial to this upper sub-assembly or crystal.
Claims17
A case for a timepiece, said case including a middle part for receiving at least one movement surmounted by a dial, said dial directly or indirectly carrying an upper sub-assembly or a crystal in proximity to an upper portion of said middle part or a bezel fixed to said middle part, and said case further including a back cover cooperating with said middle part in proximity to a lower portion of said middle part opposite to said upper portion, wherein said middle part includes a device for the removal or adjustment of said upper sub-assembly or of said crystal, said removal device including a plurality of pushers each movable in relation to said middle part in a sink comprised in said middle part, parallel to an axial direction of assembly/disassembly of the components of said timepiece, to transmit directly to said dial a force which is applied to each said pusher in said axial direction from said lower portion, said force being directly transmitted by said dial to said upper sub-assembly or to said crystal,
- wherein the force being transmitted by the plurality of pushers is configured to push said upper said-assembly or said crystal away from said middle part.
A case for a timepiece, said case including a middle part for receiving at least one movement surmounted by a dial, said dial directly or indirectly carrying an upper sub-assembly or a crystal in proximity to an upper portion of said middle part or a bezel fixed to said middle part, and said case further including a back cover cooperating with said middle part in proximity to a lower portion of said middle part opposite to said upper portion, wherein said middle part includes a device for the removal or adjustment of said upper sub-assembly or of said crystal, said removal device including a plurality of pushers each movable in relation to said middle part in a sink comprised in said middle part, parallel to an axial direction of assembly/disassembly of the components of said timepiece, to transmit indirectly via a push plate comprised in said case to said dial a force which is applied to each said pusher in said axial direction from said lower portion, said force being indirectly transmitted by said push plate to said upper sub-assembly or to said crystal, wherein the force being transmitted by the plurality of pushers is configured to push said upper said-assembly or said crystal away from said middle part.
