Description
[0001] La présente invention concerne une boite de montre munie d’éléments décoratifs d’aspect changeant. The present invention relates to a watch case provided with decorative elements of changing appearance.
[0002] Les montres et plus précisément les montres bracelets à part leur fonction première de donner l’heure, compter le temps et autres fonctions similaires et variées sont aussi des objets d’ornement. Les horlogers ont toujours essayé d’agrémenter leurs montres avec des éléments décoratifs fixes ou mobiles. Les éléments décoratifs mobiles permettent à choix ou de manière aléatoire de modifier l’aspect d’une montre. [0002] Watches and more specifically wristwatches apart from their primary function of giving time, counting time and other similar and varied functions are also ornamental objects. Watchmakers have always tried to decorate their watches with fixed or mobile decorative elements. Mobile decorative elements allow choice or random modification of the appearance of a watch.
[0003] La présente invention propose une boîte de montre munie d’éléments décoratifs d’aspect changeant. The present invention provides a watch case provided with decorative elements of changing appearance.
[0004] La boîte de montre selon l’invention est caractérisée par le fait que la surface latérale de la carrure de la boîte de montre est celle d’un corps de révolution et ladite surface latérale est munie d’éléments décoratifs pivotants agencés pour être liés cinématiquement à un anneau rotatif de la carrure lunette. The watch case according to the invention is characterized in that the lateral surface of the middle part of the watch case is that of a body of revolution and said lateral surface is provided with pivoting decorative elements arranged to be kinematically related to a rotating ring of the middle bezel.
[0005] Les éléments décoratifs qui sont en principe de forme prismatique ou sphérique ou conique ou ovoïde peuvent être munis de décorations différentes sur leurs surfaces latérales, ainsi en tournant l’anneau de la carrure lunette on change l’aspect latéral de la boîte de montre. Decorative elements which are in principle of prismatic or spherical or conical or ovoid shape can be provided with different decorations on their side surfaces, and turning the ring of the middle bezel changes the lateral appearance of the box. shows.
[0006] Selon une variante d’exécution l’anneau tournant est munie de fenêtres permettant d’exposer de manière alternée d’autres éléments décoratifs situés sous ledit anneau rotatif. En effet, on peut disposer sous l’anneau tournant des pierres de différentes couleurs et lorsque l’on tourne l’anneau on change aussi l’aspect de la lunette de la montre. According to an alternative embodiment the rotating ring is provided with windows for alternately exposing other decorative elements located under said rotary ring. Indeed, we can have under the rotating ring stones of different colors and when we turn the ring also changes the appearance of the bezel of the watch.
[0007] D’autres variantes d’exécution sont définies dans les revendications dépendantes. [0007] Other variant embodiments are defined in the dependent claims.
[0008] L’invention sera décrite plus en détail à l’aide du dessin annexé montrant une exécution selon l’invention. The invention will be described in more detail with the aid of the accompanying drawing showing an embodiment according to the invention.
[0009] La figure unique est une vue éclatée en perspective d’une boîte de montre selon l’invention. The single figure is an exploded perspective view of a watch case according to the invention.
[0010] La boîte de montre comprend une carrure 1 de forme cylindrique munie de deux cornes 2. Les deux cornes 2 ne sont pas massives mais évidées pour assurer la continuité de la surface latérale de la carrure. Il s’agit, bien sûr, d’un choix esthétique, car les cornes pourraient être massives. La forme de la carrure 1 pourrait être conique. La partie supérieure de la carrure 1 est munie d’une projection horizontale annulaire 3 pourvue de trous 4 régulièrement repartis. La carrure 1 présente un rehaussement cylindrique 5 muni d’une gorge 6. La carrure lunette comprend un anneau rotatif 7, deux demi-anneaux 31, un anneau denté 9 et éventuellement un anneau intermédiaire 10 situé sous l’anneau rotatif 7. L’anneau rotatif 7 est cranté sur sa périphérie et muni de fenêtres 8 sur sa surface supérieure. L’anneau intermédiaire 10 est optionnel et il est muni de trous 11 dans lesquels on peut sertir des éléments décoratifs tels que des pierres synthétiques ou semi-précieuses ou précieuses. Les fenêtres 8 de l’anneau 7 permettent de voir ces éléments décoratifs ou pas en fonction de la position angulaire de l’anneau rotatif 7. L’anneau intermédiaire 10 est fixé sur la carrure 1 par des vis 12. Après avoir placé l’anneau denté 9 sur la carrure 1 on met en place les deux demi-anneaux 31 dont le diamètre intérieur correspond au diamètre de la gorge 6 du rehaussement 5. On place l’anneau rotatif 7 et on assemble l’anneau 7, les demi-anneaux 31 et l’anneau denté 9 par des vis 13. Les deux demi-anneaux 31 sont tenus dans les sens vertical par la gorge 6 du rehaussement 5 mais ils restent libres en rotation. Ainsi, l’anneau rotatif 7 les deux demi-anneaux 31 et l’anneau denté 9, peuvent tourner ensemble mais ne peuvent pas se déplacer vers le haut. Au lieu et place de deux demi-anneaux 31 on pourrait utiliser un Circlip. Un verre 14 fermant la carrure lunette est représenté sur la figure. On a aussi représenté la couronne 23 et son tube 24 qui coopèrent avec la tige du mouvement de montre de manière conventionnelle. The watch case comprises a middle part 1 of cylindrical shape provided with two horns 2. The two horns 2 are not massive but recessed to ensure the continuity of the side surface of the middle part. This is, of course, an aesthetic choice, because the horns could be massive. The shape of the middle part 1 could be conical. The upper part of the middle part 1 is provided with an annular horizontal projection 3 provided with holes 4 regularly distributed. The caseband 1 has a cylindrical raising 5 provided with a groove 6. The caseband comprises a rotating ring 7, two half-rings 31, a toothed ring 9 and optionally an intermediate ring 10 located under the rotary ring 7. The rotating ring 7 is notched on its periphery and provided with windows 8 on its upper surface. The intermediate ring 10 is optional and it is provided with holes 11 in which can be crimped decorative elements such as synthetic or semi-precious or precious stones. The windows 8 of the ring 7 make it possible to see these decorative elements or not according to the angular position of the rotary ring 7. The intermediate ring 10 is fixed on the middle part 1 by screws 12. After having placed the toothed ring 9 on the caseband 1 the two half-rings 31 are put in place, the internal diameter of which corresponds to the diameter of the groove 6 of the raising element 5. The rotary ring 7 is placed and the ring 7 is assembled, the half-rings rings 31 and the toothed ring 9 by screws 13. The two half-rings 31 are held in the vertical direction by the groove 6 of the raising 5 but they remain free in rotation. Thus, the rotary ring 7 the two half-rings 31 and the toothed ring 9, can rotate together but can not move upwards. Instead of two half-rings 31 could be used a Circlip. A glass 14 closing the bezel middle is shown in the figure. The ring 23 and its tube 24 are also shown which cooperate with the rod of the watch movement in a conventional manner.
[0011] A la partie inférieure de la carrure 1 on a représenté: le mouvement de la montre 15 et son support 16 assemblés par de vis 22, un anneau de fond 17 avec de trous 29 et des lamages 18 pour les cornes 2, et un couvercle de fond 19 annulaire avec une fermeture 20 cette dernière pouvant être en matériau transparent. Des vis 21 permettent de fixer les éléments du fond à la carrure 1. In the lower part of the middle part 1 there is shown: the movement of the watch 15 and its support 16 assembled by screws 22, a bottom ring 17 with holes 29 and counters 18 for the horns 2, and an annular bottom cover 19 with a closure 20 which can be made of transparent material. Screws 21 make it possible to fix the elements of the bottom to the middle part 1.
[0012] Les éléments décoratifs d’aspect changeant sont dans l’exemple illustré des éléments prismatiques 25 liés cinématiquement à des pignons 26 traversés par des vis 27 solidarisant les pignons 26 et les éléments décoratifs 25. La partie inférieure de chaque élément décoratif 25 comprend un pivot 28. Les éléments décoratifs 25 sont pris entre la projection annulaire 3 et l’anneau de fond 17. Les pivots 28 des éléments décoratifs 25 rentrent dans les trous 29 de l’anneau de fond 17 ou des trous correspondant des cornes 2 au droit des lamages 18 tandis que les vis 27 et pignons 26 traversent les trous 4 de la projection annulaire 3. The decorative elements of changing appearance are in the example shown prismatic elements 25 kinematically connected to the pinions 26 traversed by screws 27 solidarisant the pinions 26 and the decorative elements 25. The lower part of each decorative element 25 comprises a pivot 28. The decorative elements 25 are taken between the annular projection 3 and the bottom ring 17. The pivots 28 of the decorative elements 25 enter the holes 29 of the bottom ring 17 or corresponding holes of the horns 2 to right of counterbores 18 while the screws 27 and gables 26 pass through the holes 4 of the annular projection 3.
[0013] Lorsque la boîte de montre est assemblée, l’anneau denté 9 engrène avec les pignons 26 et lorsqu’on tourne l’anneau rotatif 7 l’anneau denté 9 entraine les pignons 26 qui font tourner les éléments décoratifs 25. Une bille à ressort 30 située dans la carrure 1 collaborant avec des encoches correspondantes (non représentés) sous l’anneau denté 9 permettent un indexage de la position angulaire de l’anneau rotatif 7 et partant des éléments décoratifs 25. When the watch case is assembled, the toothed ring 9 meshes with the pinions 26 and when the rotary ring 7 is rotated the toothed ring 9 drives the pinions 26 which rotate the decorative elements 25. A ball spring 30 located in the middle part 1 collaborating with corresponding notches (not shown) under the toothed ring 9 allow indexing of the angular position of the rotary ring 7 and from the decorative elements 25.
[0014] On peut décorer chaque face de l’élément 25 prismatique de manière différente, par exemple, en les sertissant de pierres de couleur différente ou toute autre décoration souhaitée. En tournant l’anneau rotatif 7, on change l’aspect latéral de la boîte de montre ainsi que l’aspect de la lunette à travers les fenêtres 8. [0014] Each face of the prismatic element 25 may be decorated in a different manner, for example, by crimping them with different colored stones or any other desired decoration. Turning the rotary ring 7 changes the lateral appearance of the watch case and the appearance of the bezel through the windows 8.
[0015] La forme des éléments décoratifs 25 peut être autre que prismatique par exemple sphérique, conique, cylindrique, ovoïde etc. The shape of the decorative elements 25 may be other than prismatic, for example spherical, conical, cylindrical, ovoid, etc.
