Description

       

  [0001]    La présente invention a pour objet une pièce d'horlogerie comportant un mouvement d'horlogerie muni d'un cadran logé dans une boîte de montre comportant une glace.

  

[0002]    Le but de la présente invention est de conférer à cette pièce d'horlogerie un aspect esthétique particulier et ludique grâce à la présence d'un élément mobile situé entre le cadran et la glace de la pièce d'horlogerie.

  

[0003]    La pièce d'horlogerie selon la présente invention se distingue par les caractéristiques énoncées à la revendication 1 qui permettent d'atteindre le but visé.

  

[0004]    Le dessin annexé illustre schématiquement et à titre d'exemple une forme d'exécution de la pièce d'horlogerie selon l'invention.
<tb>La fig. 1<sep>est une vue en coupe de la pièce d'horlogerie.


  <tb>La fig. 2<sep>est une vue éclatée de la pièce d'horlogerie illustrée à la fig. 1.

  

[0005]    La pièce d'horlogerie selon la présente invention comporte une boîte de montre constituée dans l'exemple illustré d'une carrure 1, d'un fond 2 fixé sur cette carrure 1, d'une lunette 3 sertie sur la carrure 1 et d'une glace 4 fixée sur la lunette 3

  

[0006]    Cette pièce d'horlogerie comporte encore un mouvement d'horlogerie 5 muni d'un cadran 6 logé dans la boîte de montre.

  

[0007]    Cette pièce d'horlogerie comporte encore, pivotée concentriquement au cadran 6 et située entre ce cadran 6 et la glace 4 de la boîte de montre, une plaque transparente 7 solidaire d'un rehaut extérieur 8 comportant un balourd 9. Ainsi, la plaque transparente 7 se déplace en rotation en fonction des mouvements imprimés à la pièce d'horlogerie à l'instar d'une masse de remontage automatique.

  

[0008]    Cette plaque transparente 7 peut comporter des motifs décoratifs, des incrustations de pierres précieuses ou semi-précieuses ou être colorée, formant ainsi un décor mobile esthétique et ludique.

  

[0009]    Dans la forme d'exécution illustrée la plaque transparente 7, généralement en saphir, est montée rotative sur le cadran 6 à l'aide d'un roulement à billes. La cage extérieure 10 de ce roulement à billes est fixée au cadran 6 à l'aide de vis 11. La cage intérieure 12 du roulement à billes est elle solidaire d'un rehaut central 13 sur lequel est collée la plaque transparente 7. La périphérie de la plaque transparente 7 est chassée dans l'orifice central du rehaut extérieur 8 et collée sur ce rehaut extérieur 8.

  

[0010]    Le cadran 6 est lui fixé de façon conventionnelle, par exemple à l'aide de pieds, sur le mouvement 5.

  

[0011]    La plaque transparente 7 est située entre le cadran 6 et la glace 4 sous les aiguilles de l'aiguillage du mouvement 5.

  

[0012]    On obtient ainsi un aspect esthétique nouveau et ludique de la pièce d'horlogerie de par la plaque transparente mobile 7 décorée qui tourne en fonction des positions que prend la pièce d'horlogerie lorsqu'elle est portée au poignet d'un utilisateur.

  

[0013]    Il va de soi que la plaque transparente 7 et son rehaut 8 muni d'un balourd 9 pourraient être pivotes différemment, par exemple à l'aide d'un palier à aiguilles ou d'un palier lisse directement sur l'aiguillage, soit le canon des heures 14, et non pas sur le cadran 6.

  

[0014]    L'intérêt de cette pièce d'horlogerie, qui peut être une montre bracelet, une montre de poche ou toute autre pièce d'horlogerie destinée à être portée notamment au poignet ou comme pendentif, est que le cadran est recouvert d'une plaque transparente mobile en rotation sous l'effet de son balourd, cette plaque transparente étant munie d'un décor.

  

[0015]    Dans une variante, la plaque transparente 7 pourrait être pivotée concentriquement à l'axe 14 de l'aiguillage, par exemple sur le canon des heures ou un canon solidaire du cadran 6 à l'aide d'un palier lisse ou à billes.

  

[0016]    De manière générale la plaque transparente 7 est directement superposée au cadran 6, cette plaque est traversée par l'axe 14 de l'aiguillage et est donc située entre le cadran 6 et les aiguilles de l'aiguillage. La plaque transparente 7 pourrait comporter un balourd collé, soudé ou fixé de toute autre manière à sa périphérie. Dans ce cas le rehaut extérieur est supprimé. La plaque 7 est au moins partiellement transparente ou translucide pour laisser apparaître le cadran 6 et en permettre la lecture.



  The present invention relates to a timepiece comprising a watch movement provided with a dial housed in a watch case with an ice.

  

The object of the present invention is to give this timepiece a particular aesthetic and playful thanks to the presence of a movable element located between the dial and the ice of the timepiece.

  

The timepiece according to the present invention is distinguished by the features set forth in claim 1 that achieve the goal.

  

The accompanying drawing illustrates schematically and by way of example an embodiment of the timepiece according to the invention.
<tb> Fig. 1 <sep> is a sectional view of the timepiece.


  <tb> Fig. 2 <sep> is an exploded view of the timepiece illustrated in FIG. 1.

  

The timepiece according to the present invention comprises a watch case constituted in the illustrated example of a middle part 1, a bottom 2 fixed on the middle part 1, a bezel 3 set on the middle part 1 and a mirror 4 attached to the telescope 3

  

This timepiece further comprises a watch movement 5 provided with a dial 6 housed in the watch case.

  

This timepiece further comprises, concentrically pivoted to the dial 6 and located between the dial 6 and the ice 4 of the watch case, a transparent plate 7 secured to an outer flange 8 having an unbalance 9. Thus, the transparent plate 7 moves in rotation according to the movements printed at the timepiece like an automatic winding mass.

  

This transparent plate 7 may include decorative patterns, incrustations of precious or semi-precious stones or be colored, thus forming a mobile aesthetic and fun.

  

In the illustrated embodiment the transparent plate 7, generally sapphire, is rotatably mounted on the dial 6 with a ball bearing. The outer race 10 of this ball bearing is fixed to the dial 6 by means of screws 11. The inner race 12 of the ball bearing is secured to a central flange 13 on which the transparent plate 7 is bonded. The periphery of the transparent plate 7 is driven into the central orifice of the outer flange 8 and stuck on this outer flange 8.

  

The dial 6 is fixed in a conventional manner, for example using feet, on the movement 5.

  

The transparent plate 7 is located between the dial 6 and the ice 4 under the hands of the switch of the movement 5.

  

Thus, a new and playful aesthetic appearance of the timepiece by the movable transparent plate 7 which rotates according to the positions taken by the timepiece when worn on the wrist of a user. .

  

It goes without saying that the transparent plate 7 and its flange 8 provided with an unbalance 9 could be pivoted differently, for example by means of a needle bearing or a plain bearing directly on the switch , the clock of hours 14, and not on the dial 6.

  

The interest of this timepiece, which can be a wristwatch, a pocket watch or any other timepiece intended to be worn in particular on the wrist or as a pendant, is that the dial is covered with a transparent plate movable in rotation under the effect of its imbalance, this transparent plate being provided with a decoration.

  

In a variant, the transparent plate 7 could be pivoted concentrically to the axis 14 of the switch, for example on the hour barrel or a gun fixed to the dial 6 by means of a plain bearing or to balls.

  

In general, the transparent plate 7 is directly superimposed on the dial 6, this plate is crossed by the axis 14 of the switch and is located between the dial 6 and the needles of the switch. The transparent plate 7 could include a unbalance glued, welded or otherwise fixed to its periphery. In this case the outer flange is deleted. The plate 7 is at least partially transparent or translucent to reveal the dial 6 and allow reading.
