 Procédé de    fabrication   d'un cadran d'horlogerie et cadran obtenu par la    mise   en    aeuvre   de ce procédé La présente invention a pour objet un procédé de fabrication d'un cadran d'horlogerie dont la plaque et les signes horaires,    rapportés,   sont en matière plastique, et dans lequel lesdits signes sont soudés sur la plaque du cadran par application    d'ultrasons,   ainsi qu'un cadran obtenu par la mise en    #uvre   de ce procédé. 



  La fabrication des cadrans en matière plastique munis de signes appliques, également en matière plastique, dans lesquels ces derniers sont soudés sur la plaque du cadran par application d'ultrasons, pose des problèmes, en ce qui concerne la détermination des matières à utiliser souvent difficiles. à résoudre. En effet, les plaques de cadran ne doivent pas être réalisées en une matière trop fragile ou cassante, en particulier à cause des pieds du cadran qui sont généralement obtenus d'une pièce avec la plaque. En revanche, l'emploi d'une matière peu cassante ne convient guère pour la    réalisation   des signes par moulage : en effet, il se produit alors des difficultés lors de la séparation du signe et de sa carotte d'injection.

   De même, une matière trop souple pour la confection des signes peut provoquer des difficultés lors de leur soudage par application d'ultrasons. 



     Dans,   le cas d'un soudage par application d'ultrasons appliqués suivant une direction perpendiculaire au plan de la plaque du cadran, procédé avantageux pour le soudage simultané de plusieurs signes horaires à la fois sur une même plaque, il y a avantage à munir la base des signes de saillies pénétrant dans la matière de la plaque du cadran. Dans ce cas, il convient que la    résistance   à la compression de la matière plastique soit plus élevée pour les signes que pour la plaque du cadran, de manière que les saillies des signes pénètrent    dans   la plaque. Le but de la présente invention est de fournir un procédé de fabrication remplissant les conditions ci-dessus. 



     Le   procédé suivant l'invention est caractérisé par le fait qu'on    utilise,   pour la plaque du cadran, une matière dont l'allongement unitaire à la rupture est supérieur à celui de la matière des signes. 



  Il est rappelé que l'allongement, ou allongement à la rupture, consiste dans l'allongement que peut subir, juste avant sa    rupture,   une éprouvette de matière à étudier    soumise   à un effort de traction. La valeur de cet allongement par    rapport   à la longueur initiale de l'éprouvette constitue l'allongement unitaire. 



  Il a été constaté qu'en utilisant, pour la plaque du cadran, de la matière plastique dont l'allongement unitaire est    supérieur   à celui de la matière des signes, on réunit différents avantages non seulement quant à la    fabrication   de la plaque munie de ses pieds ainsi que des signes, mais également quant au soudage de ces derniers, par    application   d'ultrasons. 



  Dans la pratique, l'allongement unitaire de la matière de la plaque sera de préférence d'au    moins      30,%      alors      que      l'allongement      unitaire   à    la      rupture   de la    matière   des signes sera de préférence d'au plus 10'0/0.

   On pourra    utiliser   des    résines   de la famille des    acétobutyrates   de cellulose, par exemple la matière connue dans le commerce sous la marque      CELLIDOR    , pour l'obtention de la plaque, et des résines de polystyrène, par exemple la    matière   connue dans le    commerce   sous la marque      STER-      NITE       ,   pour les signes. 



  En choisissant les matières    respectives   de la plaque et des signes comme    indiqué   ci-dessus, les plaques seront    suffisamment   résistantes tout en n'étant 

 <Desc/Clms Page number 2> 

 pas trop brisantes, ce qui sera avantageux quant à leurs pieds venus d'une pièce avec la plaque    elle-      même,   alors que les signes seront plus durs, et plus brisants,    ce   qui sera avantageux à la fois pour les séparer de leur carotte d'injection et pour leur soudage.

 Method of manufacturing a clockwork dial and dial obtained by implementing this method The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a clockwork dial, the plate and the hour signs, reported, are in plastic material, and wherein said signs are welded to the dial plate by application of ultrasound, as well as a dial obtained by implementing this process.



  The manufacture of plastic dials provided with applied signs, also of plastic material, in which the latter are welded to the dial plate by application of ultrasound, poses problems with regard to determining the materials to be used, which are often difficult. . to solve. In fact, the dial plates should not be made of a material that is too fragile or brittle, in particular because of the feet of the dial which are generally obtained in one piece with the plate. On the other hand, the use of a material which is not very brittle is hardly suitable for producing the signs by molding: indeed, difficulties arise during the separation of the sign and its injection core.

   Likewise, a material that is too flexible for making the signs can cause difficulties during their welding by application of ultrasound.



     In the case of welding by applying ultrasound applied in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the dial plate, an advantageous process for the simultaneous welding of several hour signs at the same time on the same plate, it is advantageous to provide the base of the protrusions signs penetrating into the material of the dial plate. In this case, the compressive strength of the plastic should be higher for the signs than for the dial plate, so that the protrusions of the signs penetrate the plate. The aim of the present invention is to provide a manufacturing process fulfilling the above conditions.



     The method according to the invention is characterized by the fact that one uses, for the plate of the dial, a material whose unit elongation at break is greater than that of the material of the signs.



  It is recalled that the elongation, or elongation at break, consists in the elongation which can undergo, just before its rupture, a test piece of material to be studied subjected to a tensile force. The value of this elongation with respect to the initial length of the test piece constitutes the unit elongation.



  It has been observed that by using, for the dial plate, plastic material whose unit elongation is greater than that of the material of the signs, various advantages are combined not only with regard to the manufacture of the plate provided with its elements. feet as well as signs, but also as regards the welding of the latter, by application of ultrasound.



  In practice, the unit elongation of the plate material will preferably be at least 30% while the unit elongation at break of the sign material will preferably be at most 10.0 / 0. .

   Resins of the cellulose acetate butyrate family can be used, for example the material known commercially under the trademark CELLIDOR, to obtain the plate, and polystyrene resins, for example the material known commercially under the name CELLIDOR. STERNITE mark, for the signs.



  By choosing the respective materials of the plate and the signs as indicated above, the plates will be sufficiently resistant while not being

 not too shattering, which will be advantageous as to their feet coming from one piece with the plate itself, while the signs will be harder, and more shattering, which will be advantageous both to separate them from their carrot d injection and for their welding.
