Patent number: 5951193Abstract: A mechanism for connecting ornamental parts of wrist watches that permit easily connecting and disconnecting ornamental parts without using any special tool and without marring the appearance of wrist watches. A stepped pin is inserted in a larger-diameter bore of a cocoon-shaped ring fitted in an end piece and a bore in a watch casing. Then, a smaller-diameter part of the stepped pin is moved into a smaller-diameter bore by pulling the watch casing and a band longitudinally. With the stepped pin thus securely held in place, the watch casing and band are firmly connected.Type: GrantFiled: February 15, 1996Date of Patent: September 14, 1999Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha Hattori SeikoInventors: Akio Yamamoto, Taro Tanaka, Haruyuki Shimayama, Shunichi Kojima, Noboru Hosokawa

Patent number: 5734628Abstract: A three-dimensional watch dial plate structure abundant in ornamental effect is provided fully utilizing the characteristics of an electro-optical display device such as a liquid crystal device or an electrochromic device. A color coat such as a white color and clear lacquer layer is laminated on a metal dial plate base. Successively laminated on the surface of a lower glass substrate are a lower transparent electrode layer, a lower electrochromic layer, a solid electrolyte layer, an upper electrochromic layer and an upper transparent electrode layer. The upper transparent electrode layer is formed on the back face of an upper glass substrate, and a transparent glass plate is bonded to the upper glass substrate. A metal hour scale and a metal minute scale each are formed on the surface of the transparent glass plate.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 1994Date of Patent: March 31, 1998Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha Hattori SeikoInventor: Masayuki Akasaka

Patent number: 5426621Abstract: Provided is a luminous dial plate structure for watches, relatively high in luminance, sufficiently long in visual time and abundant in ornamental effect. The dial plate structure is composed of a lower plate and an upper member. The lower plate is made of a metal such as brass. The upper surface of the lower plate is coated with a phosphorescence-maintaining luminous agent made of a rare-earth element metal oxide. The surface of phosphorescence-maintaining luminous agent is coated with clear lacquer serving as a sealing material. The upper member is made of a thin transparent or translucent material, on which a time indication scale is provided. The upper member is bonded through an adhesive onto the upper surface of clear lacquer.Type: GrantFiled: July 26, 1994Date of Patent: June 20, 1995Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha Hattori SeikoInventor: Masayuki Akasaka

Patent number: 5388082Abstract: A watch case back opener is provided having a base. A vise is rotatably mounted on the base for securing a watch case to the base. The vise includes a first jaw and a second jaw movable between an open and closed position. Holes are formed in the jaw. They are adapted to receive a plurality of posts to secure a plurality of different sized and shaped watch cases to the vise. An opener unit including an opening blade is mounted on the base for separating a watch case back from the watch case by twisting the lever relative to the base and then lifting the blade relative to the base.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 1994Date of Patent: February 7, 1995Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha Hattori SeikoInventor: Scott M. S. Chou

Patent number: 5230132Abstract: A multiple band sizing and repairing device is provided with a base and a plurality of blocks rising from the base for receiving and securing a watch band along its edge. The blocks are separated by varying distances from each other to form channels of varying widths therebetween to accommodate watch bands of varying thickness. A pair of shoulders extend from one side of the base and are separated from each other to form a gap therebetween. A passageway in each shoulder permits a pair of bolts to extend through the pair of shoulders. Upon rotation of the bolts, a vice is formed wherein the passageways guide movement of the bolts therethrough in applying pressure to a pin of the band. A hollow tip is provided at the inner end of at least one bolt so that the pin can be receivingly seated and held by the tip. Each block also includes a receptor for seating a bit therein.Type: GrantFiled: July 21, 1992Date of Patent: July 27, 1993Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha Hattori SeikoInventor: Scott M. S. Chou

Patent number: 4000542Abstract: A three-element device for adjusting the length of a watchband having a main link larger than other length-adjusting links of the device and the watchband which is connected to two foldable-elements of the device foldable over one another to define a closure. The three elements form a three-element fitting normally connected to intermediate ends of a watchband. The main link is easily connectable to the watchband and can be disconnected thereto to provide for insertion of similarly constructed shorter length-adjusting links. Each of the links has a top and sidewalls opposite each other that are provided with openings through which a spring-loaded pin is inserted through a connecting extension on each link that is insertable on the underside of an adjacent link so that the pin is received through this extension and links adjacent length-adjusting links of the device. The links may be provided with a leading tongue that limits the relative movement of the links.Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 1975Date of Patent: January 4, 1977Assignees: Kabushiki Kaisha Bambi, Kabushiki Kaisha HattoriInventor: Tokio Omichi
