Abstract

La présente invention concerne un organe régulateur, notamment un organe régulateur destiné à être intégré dans une montre mécanique. La régulation de la force du ressort moteur est assurée par le déplacement d’un élément mobile (4.4) dans un fluide (4.5) contenu dans un tube (4.6). L’incompressibilité du fluide et la forme particulière de l’élément mobile permettent la régulation. La présente invention concerne également un mouvement de montre mécanique ainsi qu’une pièce d’horlogerie comportant un tel organe régulateur.The present invention relates to a regulating member, in particular a regulating member intended to be integrated in a mechanical watch. The regulation of the force of the mainspring is ensured by the displacement of a movable element (4.4) in a fluid (4.5) contained in a tube (4.6). The incompressibility of the fluid and the particular shape of the movable element allow regulation. The present invention also relates to a mechanical watch movement and a timepiece comprising such a regulating member.

Description

Domaine techniqueTechnical area

[0001] La présente invention concerne un organe régulateur, notamment un organe régulateur destiné à être intégré dans une montre mécanique, ainsi qu’un mouvement de montre mécanique voire d’une pièce d’horlogerie comportant un tel organe régulateur. The present invention relates to a regulating member, in particular a regulating member intended to be integrated in a mechanical watch, and a mechanical watch movement or even a timepiece comprising such a regulator member.

Etat de la techniqueState of the art

[0002] La régulation de la force dans les mouvements de montres mécaniques traditionnels est assuré par l’ensemble des pièces formé par le balancier et le ressort spiral. Ces deux éléments permettent le fonctionnement régulier et efficace d’un mouvement mécanique d’horlogerie. The regulation of the force in the movements of traditional mechanical watches is provided by all the parts formed by the balance and the spiral spring. These two elements allow the regular and efficient operation of a mechanical clockwork movement.

[0003] Divers brevets protègent les améliorations effectuées sur ces éléments, tels que par exemple ceux déposés par les manufactures Audemars Piguet & Cie (réf. CH 702 062 A1; CH 706 087 A1), Patek Philippe SA (réf. CH 697 207 A5; CH 700 805 B1) ou Richemont International SA (réf. CH 700 812 B1). Various patents protect the improvements made on these elements, such as for example those deposited by the manufacturers Audemars Piguet & Cie (No. CH 702 062 A1, CH 706 087 A1), Patek Philippe SA (No. CH 697 207 A5). CH 700 805 B1) or Richemont International SA (code CH 700 812 B1).

[0004] Ces ensembles équipent la majorité des montres dotées d’un mouvement d’horlogerie mécanique. D’autres systèmes ayant la même fonctionnalité ont plus récemment vu le jour. L’un de ces exemples est le système «Pendulum Concept» développé par la société Tag Heuer, dont le système régulateur fonctionne grâce à l’emploi d’une résistance magnétique. [0004] These sets equip the majority of watches equipped with a mechanical clockwork movement. Other systems with the same functionality have more recently been introduced. One of these examples is the "Pendulum Concept" system developed by Tag Heuer, whose regulator system works through the use of a magnetic resistor.

[0005] Un second exemple est celui d’un système fonctionnant grâce à des structures sur guidages flexibles, nommé régulateur Genecand et développé par un partenariat entre Vaucher Manufacture et le Centre Suisse d’Electronique et de Microtechnique (CSEM). A second example is that of a system operating with structures on flexible guides, named Genecand regulator and developed by a partnership between Vaucher Manufacture and the Swiss Center for Electronics and Microtechnology (CSEM).

Résumé de l’inventionSummary of the invention

[0006] Le but de la présente invention est de proposer une alternative aux systèmes existants permettant la régulation de la force du ressort moteur des mouvements d’horlogerie. The object of the present invention is to provide an alternative to existing systems for regulating the force of the mainspring of watch movements.

[0007] Le système développé permet la régulation du ressort moteur grâce à l’utilisation de la résistance du passage d’un élément mobile au travers un fluide. The developed system allows the regulation of the motor spring through the use of the resistance of the passage of a movable element through a fluid.

[0008] L’organe permet la régulation de la force grâce au passage d’un élément mobile (4.4) dans un fluide (4.5) contenu dans un tube (4.6). L’incompressibilité du fluide permet la régulation de la force en offrant une résistance lors du déplacement de l’élément mobile. Ceci résulte par l’obtention d’une vitesse de déplacement stable, permettant de réguler le déroulement du ressort moteur. La force est transmise à l’organe régulateur par la transmission elliptique (3). La force est transmise via les rouages raccordant le ressort moteur à la transmission elliptique. The body allows the regulation of the force through the passage of a movable member (4.4) in a fluid (4.5) contained in a tube (4.6). The incompressibility of the fluid allows the regulation of the force by offering a resistance during the displacement of the movable element. This results in obtaining a stable movement speed, to regulate the unwinding of the motor spring. The force is transmitted to the regulating member by the elliptical transmission (3). The force is transmitted via the workings connecting the mainspring to the elliptical transmission.

Réalisation de l’inventionRealization of the invention

[0010] L’invention se réalise en assemblant les différentes pièces usinées sur une platine, comme présenté sur la fig.  2 . The invention is achieved by assembling the different machined parts on a plate, as shown in FIG. 2.

[0011] Les deux couvercles du tube s’insèrent par chassage. Les têtes sont également chassées sur les différents éléments. The two lids of the tube fit by driving. The heads are also hunted on the different elements.

[0012] Le fluide s’insère après avoir chassé un premier couvercle et inséré l’élément mobile. Le chassage du second couvercle assure le maintien du fluide dans le tube. The fluid is inserted after driving a first lid and inserted the movable member. The driving of the second cover ensures the maintenance of the fluid in the tube.
