Definitions

  • the control of the various functions of a wristwatch is generally done by one or more control members arranged on the periphery of the case, in particular by the winding crown and / or various push-buttons.
  • the bottom control device proposes to overcome these drawbacks by providing a wristwatch whose function control can only be actuated using any tip, for example a tip. pen or the tip of a rod specially provided for this purpose, which means that no other action, for example excessive tightening around the wrist, or hydraulic pressure, can inadvertently control the function (s) of the watch.
  • the bottom control device for the functions of a wristwatch includes the features mentioned in the claims.
  • FIG. 1 represents a portion of a wristwatch seen in section comprising a first embodiment of a bottom control device and Figure 2 shows a view of a movement controllable from the bottom of the housing.
  • FIG. 1 there is a watch case 1, in which the movement 2 is fixed in a completely conventional manner; in the case shown here, only a small space remains between the bottom 20 of the movement 2 and the bottom 10 of the housing 1.
  • This housing 1, here made of synthetic material, is made in one piece, including the bottom 10.
  • This bottom 10 is constructed so as to be rigid enough not to deform, except for the central part of said bottom comprising in particular a cavity 11, of hemispherical shape and which is deformable, respectively liable to sink, under the action of a point Any one.
  • the central part 13 of the bottom 10 located directly opposite the cavity 11 comes to press on an elastic part in raising 22 of a metal piece 21 of movement 2, the function of which will be seen main further.
  • the elastic raising part 22 comes into contact with a track contact 23 of an electronic circuit thus controlling the desired function, generally the time reset function . Since the contact between the elastic raising part 22 and the track contact 23 cannot be accidentally controlled, but only under the action of the tip 12 acting on the cavity 11, it is not necessary to provide a separate release of the function command.
  • the tip 12 can be a pen tip or other common accessory, or else be the tip of an ad-hoc rod provided for this purpose and accommodated in the event of non-use in a bore provided in the thickness of the housing from which it is easy to remove for use.
  • the movement 2 shown in FIG. 2 on the side of the bottom of the case comprises in particular a magnetic screen 21 comprising a raised elastic extension 22; it is this raised elastic part 22 which, when pressed, establishes contact with the track contact 23 connected to an electronic control circuit 24.
  • a magnetic screen 21 comprising a raised elastic extension 22; it is this raised elastic part 22 which, when pressed, establishes contact with the track contact 23 connected to an electronic control circuit 24.
  • the track contact 23 will be located in the center of the caliber, as will the end portion of the elastic enhancement 22, so that when the movement 2 is inserted into the case, these two elements are automatically housed opposite of the central part of the bottom of the case where the deformable part of the bottom of the case is located.
  • the device for controlling functions from the bottom of a watch case according to the invention satisfies the requirements set, that is to say an aesthetic improvement of the watch by eliminating the winding crown and / or any push-buttons. located around the perimeter of the housing; moreover, by the design of the proposed system, no untimely control can be actuated, either by tightening the case too tightly against the wrist or by the action of hydraulic pressure when the user dives with his watch; the design of the proposed system is advantageous insofar as the movement does not require any additional part, but a simple adaptation of existing elements; finally, the control device according to the invention adapts both to plastic boxes and to metal boxes.

Claims (9)

  1. Vorrichtung zum Steuern einer Funktion bei einer Armbanduhr, wobei die Steuerung mit einem Stachel (12) vorgenommen wird, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Stachel (12) auf einen deformierbaren zentralen Bereich (11) des Bodens (10) des Gehäuses der Armbanduhr wirkt, wobei der zentrale Bereich mit dem Boden (10) aus einem Stück ist und dass der deformierbare zentrale Bereich des Bodens eine mechanische Bewegung an einen Teil eines Stückes (22) überträgt, welches bereits zum Uhrwerk der Armbanduhr gehört, um dadurch einen elektrischen Kontakt mit einer Kontaktbahn (23) herzustellen, welche ebenfalls ein Teil des Uhrwerkes der Uhr ist.
  2. Vorrichtung nach Anspruch 1, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Teil des Stückes (22), der bereits zum Uhrwerk der Armbanduhr gehört, eine Verlängerung einer magnetischen Abschirmung (21) ist.
  3. Vorrichtung nach Anspruch 1 oder 2, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der deformierbare zentrale Bereich des Gehäusebodens der Armbanduhr eine angenähert halbkugelförmige Vertiefung, welche im Gehäuseboden angebracht ist, umfasst.
  4. Vorrichtung nach Anspruch 3, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Gehäuseboden aus einem synthetischen Material hergestellt ist.
  5. Vorrichtung nach Anspruch 3, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Gehäuseboden metallisch ist.
  6. Vorrichtung nach einem der Ansprüche 1 bis 5, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Stachel abnehmbar und in einem Bereich des Gehäuses der Uhr angeordnet ist.
  7. Vorrichtung nach einem der Ansprüche 1 bis 6, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die gesteuerte Funktion das Einstellen der Zeit der Armbanduhr ist.
  8. Vorrichtung nach einem der Ansprüche 1 bis 7, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die gesteuerte Funktion eine andere Funktion ist als das Einstellen der Zeit der Armbanduhr.
  9. Armbanduhr mit einer oder mehreren Vorrichtungen gemäss einem der Ansprüche 1 bis 8.
