Watch case including a strap clasp
First Claim
1. Watch case comprising an unfolding clasp for a flexible strap, said unfolding clasp including:
- a middle connected to a first extremity of the strap,a base connected to a second extremity of the strap,an extension connected in articulated fashion to the middle and to the base, whereinthe articulations between the middle and the extension and between the base and the extension are arranged in such a manner as to allow the middle, the extension and the base to superimpose in folded position, and to be juxtaposed in unfolded position, andone or several regulating element(s) for increasing or reducing in a reversible manner a length of strap by said regulating element(s) directly pressing on the strap;
whereinthe end of the strap'"'"'s end whose length is adjustable is held in said case by application of a force perpendicular to the plane of said end.

Abstract
Watch case comprising an unfolding clasp for a flexible strap, with the unfolding clasp comprising: a middle connected to a first end of the strap, a base connected to the second end of the strap, an extension, connected in articulated fashion to the middle and to the base. The articulations between the middle and the extension and between the base and the extension are arranged in such a manner as to allow the middle, the extension and the base to superimpose in folded position, and to be juxtaposed in an unfolded position. The watch case further comprising a regulating cam for holding by compression and/or friction the strap against the base, the cam being capable of being swung to increase or reduce in a reversible manner the length of the strap in folded position.

29. Watch case comprising-an unfolding clasp for a flexible strap, said unfolding clasp including:
-
a middle connected to a first end of the strap, a base connected to the second end of the strap, an extension connected in articulated fashion to the middle and to the base, wherein the articulations between the middle and the extension and between the base and the extension are arranged in such a manner as to allow the middle, the extension and the base to superimpose in folded position, and to be juxtaposed in unfolded position, and one or several regulating element(s) for increasing or reducing in a reversible manner a length of strap in a manner independent from said extension;
whereinthe strap is held by compression of an arbitrary portion of its surface against a predefined portion of said case. - View Dependent Claims (30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56)

58. Watch case comprising an unfolding clasp for a flexible strap, said unfolding clasp including:
-
a middle connected to a first end of the strap, a base connected to the second end of the strap, an extension connected in articulated fashion to the middle and to the base, wherein the articulations between the middle and the extension and between the base and the extension are arranged in such a manner as to allow the middle, the extension and the base to superimpose in folded position, and to be juxtaposed in unfolded position, one or several regulating element(s) for increasing or reducing in a reversible manner a length of said strap by said one or several regulating elements directly pressing on the strap, wherein an end of the strap is held in said case by application of a force perpendicular to a plane of said end; a mechanical locking device comprising at least one push-button placed on a lateral side of the middle, the push-button being capable of being actuated against the action of a spring to disengage at least one hooking element connected to the middle and to the base to be engaged and disengaged, said at least one hooking element being placed in laterally de-centered fashion.
