  • Patent number: 7123549
    Abstract: The invention concerns a device for mounting a pressure sensor simply and precisely on the back cover (11) of a diver's watch or altimeter watch. The pressure sensor (31) is driven into an intermediate ring (33) forming part of a sensor module (30) which further includes an additional PCB (34), a sensor support (35) and connecting elements (38) between the additional PCB (34) and a main PCB of the watch. To ensure very precise positioning relative to the back cover, the intermediate ring (33) includes feet (35) that engage in holes in the additional PCB and in the sensor support. A sealing gasket (32) is radially compressed between the wall of the orifice (12) of the back cover and a tubular casing (47) of the pressure sensor. The back cover (11) is covered externally by a perforated cover.

  • Patent number: 6152499
    Abstract: A lock of the catch type adapted to use in combination with a casket is disclosed. The lock includes a locking pin and a receiving element. The locking pin in installed on the lid of the casket and has a portion configured so to enable it to engage and remain engaged, when so desired, in the receiving element of the lock. The receiving element is installed in one of the side walls of the casket so that it is directly opposite to the locking pin. The receiving element comprises a hollow cylinder case adapted to be inserted and rotate with respect to a sleeve. The hollow cylinder case and the sleeve each comprises an opening for receiving the corresponding portion of the locking pin. The receiving element further including a compressible O-ring for enabling the hollow cylinder case to be inwardly biased against the sleeve during locking and unlocking of the lock.
