Description

La présente invention a pour objet un mécanisme de correction pour mouvement d'horlogerie comprenant un correcteur agissant de façon négative sur l'impulsion d'une force élastique et qui est actionné par une tige.The subject of the present invention is a mechanism for correction for watch movement including a corrector acting negatively on the impulse of an elastic force and which is actuated by a rod.

Ce correcteur est particulièrement destiné à équiper une montre double faces, c'est-à-dire une montre présentant un cadran supplémentaire sur le côté verso.This corrector is particularly intended to equip a double-sided watch, i.e. a watch presenting an additional dial on the back side.

On connaít depuis longtemps de nombreuses réalisations de montres dites à double faces, mais la véritable difficulté à l'usage réside dans le remontage et la remise à l'heure des deux faces.We have known for a long time many achievements of so-called double-sided watches but the real difficulty in use lies in reassembly and reset time on both sides.

Sur un mouvement construit exprès pour une montre double faces, on peut prévoir une couronne de remontoir à plusieurs positions, mais dans le cas de mouvements existants, la couronne d'origine continue de remplir parfaitement la fonction de remontage tandis que pour la mise à l'heure elle ne peut agir que sur le côté prévu, obligeant ainsi à ajouter un moyen supplémentaire pour la mise à l'heure du côté ajouté.On a movement built expressly for a double watch sides, a winding crown can be provided several positions, but in the case of movements the original crown continues to fill the winding function perfectly while for the setting the time it can only act on the intended side, thus obliging to add an additional means for the setting the time on the added side.

En se référant au brevet suisse No 57 805 qui décrit, en se servant d'un mouvement avec grande moyenne centrale, un moyen très simple et fiable pour obtenir une montre double faces, on constate qu'il n'a pas été prévu de décaler les deux affichages.With reference to Swiss Patent No. 57,805 which describes, in using a movement with large central average, a very simple and reliable way to get a watch double-sided, we see that no plans have been made to shift the two displays.

Le brevet suisse No 7 594 en se servant d'une grande moyenne décentrée, décrit un moyen tout aussi simple et sûr pour obtenir un bon résultat et il a prévu un moyen de décaler les deux affichages par le moyen de deux poussettes.Swiss Patent No. 7,594 using a large off-center average, describes an equally simple and sure to get a good result and he planned a way to shift the two displays by means of two strollers.

Pour les montres mécaniques, on connaít divers correcteurs pouvant remplir ce rôle. Le premier, rotatoire, est la couronne classique, elle permet une correction rapide mais nécessite beaucoup de composants et donc beaucoup d'espace.For mechanical watches, we know various correctors who can fulfill this role. The first, rotary, is the classic crown, it allows a fast correction but requires a lot of components and therefore a lot of space.

Le deuxième, axial, c'est l'ancienne poussette, elle nécessite peu de pièces mais présente le désavantage de devoir employer un outil adéquat pour la correction, en outre, le contact de la partie correctrice avec le rouage est brutal et peut provoquer des dégâts.The second, axial, is the old stroller, it requires few parts but has the disadvantage of having to use a suitable tool for correction, in addition, the corrective part's contact with the cog is brutal and can cause damage.

Du document EP-A-0 504 623, on connaít un mouvement pour montre à deux faces équipé d'un troisième type de correcteur constitué d'un poussoir solidaire d'une tige dont l'extrémité conique vient s'engager dans la denture d'un pignon de chaussée pour son immobilisation à fin de mise à l'heure d'un seul des affichages. Ce correcteur comprend peu de pièce et la correction est facile mais son désavantage est un grand risque de poussées involontaires, ainsi que d'un contact brutal avec le pignon.From document EP-A-0 504 623, there is a movement for two-sided watch equipped with a third type of corrector consisting of a pusher secured to a rod whose conical end engages in the teeth a road gable for its immobilization at the end of setting the time of only one of the displays. This corrector understands little room and correction is easy but its disadvantage is a great risk of relapses involuntary, as well as brutal contact with the pinion.

Un quatrième type de correcteur axial est le verrou. Il est constitué de peu de pièces mais présente une difficulté d'usage et un contact brutal avec le mobile à verrouiller. Son étanchéité est en outre difficile à assurer. A fourth type of axial corrector is the bolt. he consists of few parts but has a difficulty of use and brutal contact with the mobile to lock. Its tightness is also difficult to ensure.

Du document FR-A-2 503 409 on connaít par ailleurs un dispositif de mise à l'heure d'une montre-bracelet électronique dans laquelle une roue correctrice peut être amenée en prise avec le rouage des aiguilles par l'action négative et conjuguée d'un ressort et d'une tige déplaçable axialement et présentant des sections de diamètres différents.From document FR-A-2 503 409 we also know a device for setting the time of a wristwatch electronics in which a corrective wheel can be brought into engagement with the cogs of needles by action negative and conjugate of a spring and a rod axially movable and having sections of different diameters.

La présente invention ayant pour but de réaliser un correcteur et un mécanisme de correction permettant, par sa simplicité et donc sa fiabilité, de réaliser des montres double faces sans en augmenter l'épaisseur d'une façon exagérée et avec une correction aisée, sûre et durable.The present invention aims to achieve a corrector and a correction mechanism allowing, by its simplicity and therefore its reliability, to realize double sided watches without increasing the thickness in an exaggerated way and with an easy, safe correction and durable.

Ce résultat est atteint par le mécanisme de correction défini à la revendication 1.This result is achieved by the correction mechanism defined in claim 1.

A titre d'exemple, son application a été développée sur un mouvement avec grande moyenne centrale, selon le brevet No 57805, mais son fonctionnement peut tout aussi bien être assuré sur un mouvement avec grande moyenne décentrée ou additionnelle.As an example, its application was developed on a movement with a large central average, according to patent No 57805, but its operation can do everything as well be assured on a movement with great off-center or additional average.

Afin d'éviter des usinages sur le mouvement de base, le mouvement est simplement bloqué dans une bague d'encageage M (fig. 1) par des moyens adéquats et solides afin qu'ils forment un tout et on loge tous les composants additionnels sur une plaque supplémentaire N, que l'on fixe sur la bague d'encageage.In order to avoid machining on the basic movement, the movement is simply blocked in a ring casing M (fig. 1) by adequate and solid means to that they form a whole and we house all the components additional on an additional plate N, which one fixed on the casing ring.

Les dessins annexés représentent, à titre d'exemple, une forme d'exécution de l'invention.The accompanying drawings show, by way of example, an embodiment of the invention.

La figure 1 représente une coupe du système de fixage ainsi que la transmission du mouvement d'une face à l'autre.Figure 1 shows a section of the fixing system as well as the transmission of movement from one face to the other.

La figure 2 représente une vue, côté B, des pièces additionnelles servant à l'affichage, ainsi que du correcteur faisant l'objet de la présente invention.FIG. 2 represents a view, side B, of the parts additional displays, as well as corrector subject of the present invention.

Dans le cas présent, l'affichage additionel côté verso, B, est décentré pour permettre à ses indicateurs de tourner le sens horaire sans devoir employer un renvoi supplémentaire et afin d'éviter aussi l'emploi de la roue de minuterie en faisant recours à un affichage des heures d'une façon sautante.In this case, the additional display on the back side, B, is off-center to allow its indicators to turn clockwise without having to use a additional dismissal and also to avoid employment of the timer wheel using a jumping hours display.

A cet effet, un chevillot C, ajusté élastiquement dans la grande moyenne GM, est côté B, solidaire d'une roue dentée R1, de même diamètre que la roue des minutes R2 ainsi que d'un doigt D qui fait sauter à chaque heure une étoile E indicatrice des heures sautantes, tandis que côté A, il possède une partie conique destinée au lanternage de la chaussée traditionnelle, non représentée sur le dessin. For this purpose, a pin C, resiliently adjusted in the large GM average, is on side B, secured to a wheel toothed R1, of the same diameter as the minute wheel R2 as well as a finger D which blows up every hour an E star indicative of jumping hours, while that side A, it has a conical part intended for the traditional pavement lantern, no shown in the drawing.

Les mobiles de minuterie du côté A, étant classiques, ne sont pas représentés sur le dessin.The A side timer mobiles, being conventional, are not shown in the drawing.

Une tige T pivotée radialement dans une bague d'encageage M, se déplace horizontalement et peut occuper deux ou plusieurs positions qui sont commandables par une couronne solidaire, non représentée sur le dessin, logée à l'extérieur à la boíte. Les moyens de positionnement de cette tige ne sont pas représentés.A rod T pivoted radially in a ring casing M, moves horizontally and can occupy two or more positions that are controllable by an integral crown, not shown in the drawing, housed outside at the box. The means of positioning this rod does not are not shown.

Cette tige T possède des parties cylindriques de différents diamètres Ta, Tb, reliées par une partie conique Tc. Un correcteur K pivoté en 1, axialement dans la bague d'encageage M, ou dans une plaque supérieure N, comporte une cheville P qui s'appuie contre la tige T, et il est muni d'un bras élastique Kr en appui contre un plot F et ayant la fonction d'un ressort.This rod T has cylindrical parts of different diameters Ta, Tb, connected by a part conical Tc. A corrector K pivoted in 1, axially in the casing ring M, or in a plate upper N, has an anchor P which rests against the rod T, and it is provided with an elastic arm Kr pressing against a stud F and having the function of a spring.

La position représentée à la fig. 2 correspond à celle de la marche normale, lorsque la couronne, qui commande la tige T, est maintenue contre la boíte.The position shown in fig. 2 corresponds to that normal walking, when the crown, which controls the rod T, is held against the box.

Dans cette position, la cheville P, malgré la poussée du ressort Kr, reste appuyée sur le grand diamètre de la tige T et maintient le correcteur K en position de non contact avec une roue dentée R2. la transmission entre les deux affichages A et B peut advenir en parfaite synchronisation par le biais du chevillot C, rien n'empêchant cette transmission.In this position, the ankle P, despite the push of the spring Kr, remains supported on the large diameter of the rod T and maintains the corrector K in the position of non-contact with a gear R2. the transmission between the two displays A and B can occur by perfect synchronization through the C pin, nothing prevents this transmission.

Lorsqu'en tirant la couronne solidaire de la tige T, on lui fait prendre la position représentée en traitillé, la cheville P, sous la poussée du ressort Kr, glisse sur la partie conique Tc et vient s'appuyer sur la partie cylindrique de plus petit diamètre Tb, en libérant ainsi le correcteur K qui sous l'influence du ressort Kr, viendra loger sa pointe dans la denture de la roue R2. Ce blocage est absolument indépendant de l'intensité de la manoeuvre extérieure et sa force de pénétration est uniquement liée à la force du ressort Kr ainsi qu'à la forme de sa pointe; ce contact, tout en étant doux reste sûr et efficace et il empêche une manipulation violente ou involontaire.When pulling the crown integral with the rod T, we makes him take the position shown in dashed lines, the pin P, under the thrust of the spring Kr, slides on the conical part Tc and comes to rest on the cylindrical part of smaller diameter Tb, in thus releasing the corrector K which under the influence of the spring Kr, will accommodate its point in the teeth of the wheel R2. This blocking is absolutely independent of the intensity of the external maneuver and its strength penetration is only related to the force of the spring Kr as well as the shape of its point; this contact everything by being gentle remains safe and effective and it prevents violent or involuntary manipulation.

Par ce système, les montres doubles faces peuvent facilement être manipulées par le moyen de la couronne traditionnelle pour le remontage et la mise à l'heure simultanée des deux faces, tandis que lorsqu'on voudra manipuler que la face A, on tirera sur la couronne additionnelle de la tige T et l'on bloquera la manipulation de l'affichage B.By this system, double-sided watches can easily be handled by means of the crown traditional for winding and setting the time simultaneous of both sides, while when we want manipulate that side A, we will pull on the crown additional rod T and we will block the manipulation of display B.

La simplicité de ce mécanisme, qui assume l'avantage de la sécurité du verrou et la maniabilité de la couronne, tout en éliminant le contact brutal ou involontaire du poussoir est composé de seulement deux pièces supplémentaires T et K aux fonctions simples et donc sûres.The simplicity of this mechanism, which assumes the advantage of the safety of the lock and the maneuverability of the crown, while eliminating the brutal or involuntary contact of the pusher consists of only two pieces additional T and K with simple functions and therefore sure.

Un autre avantage de ce système réside dans le fait que demandant peu de place, il permet l'adjonction de mécanismes supplémentaires comme dans l'exemple montré à la fig. 3.Another advantage of this system is that requiring little space, it allows the addition of additional mechanisms as in the example shown in fig. 3.

Evoluant sur le même plan que les roues R1 et R2, la roue R3 a le même diamètre et tourne donc à la même vitesse d'un tour par heure. R3 entraíne une roue R5 qui fait un tour en 24 heures par l'intermédiaire d'une roue R4.Evolving on the same plane as the wheels R1 and R2, the wheel R3 has the same diameter and therefore rotates at the same speed of one revolution per hour. R3 drives a wheel R5 which goes around in 24 hours via a wheel R4.

R5 tournant en sens horaire, porte un index d'affichage de 24 heures, ou jour/nuit, et grâce à la roue R6, porteuse d'un doigt D2, communique la rotation en sens horaire à l'étoile de 31 dents Q, qui indique la date. Il est évidemment possible d'ajouter un deuxième correcteur K2, identique au correcteur K1, complètement indépendant des autres fonctions, et servant uniquement à la mise rapide de la date. L'avantage de la fonction de ce correcteur est dans ce cas précis largement démontré. En effet, si on le manipule à minuit lorsque la date est en train de changer, la force de son ressort ne lui permettra de faire aucun dégât tandis qu'elle sera largement suffisante pour vaincre la résistance du ressort de l'étoile, Qr, lorsque la correction est possible et faire ainsi avancer l'étoile Q d'une dent à chaque tirage.R5 turning clockwise, has a display index 24 hours, or day / night, and thanks to the R6 wheel, carries a finger D2, communicates the rotation in direction clockwise to the star of 31 teeth Q, which indicates the date. It is obviously possible to add a second corrector K2, identical to corrector K1, completely independent of other functions, and serving only to the rapid setting of the date. The advantage of function of this corrector is in this precise case largely demonstrated. Indeed, if we handle it at midnight when the date is changing, the strength of its spring will not allow it to do any damage while that it will be more than enough to overcome the star spring resistance, Qr, when the correction is possible and thus advance the star Q of a tooth for each draw.
