Definitions
- the present invention relates to a part timepiece including a time-setting mechanism by direct action of the zipper on a return of timer, said mechanism for making the economy of a scale thanks to the conformation particular of said zipper.
- the invention relates more particularly to a analog display watch equipped with such time setting device.
- Swiss Patent No. 583,933 describes a mechanism in which the decoupling of a reference intermediate, held in gear position by a elastic tongue, is obtained by the action of a tapered bearing from the end of the winding stem on the end of the return shaft.
- the movement printed on the winding stem activates a puller which acts on an intermediate movable member, generally constituted by a rocker including an arm causes decoupling or meshing of a gear intermediate with the timer wheel.
- an intermediate movable member generally constituted by a rocker including an arm causes decoupling or meshing of a gear intermediate with the timer wheel.
- This principle has resulted in many variations.
- the decoupled position also called neutral position, or geared for setting the time
- the vertical displacement i.e. perpendicular to the general plan of the watch
- a sliding pinion by means of a bent blade acting like a rocker in a plane perpendicular to the general plane of the watch, said blade being itself urged by an arm of the zipper which is controlled by the time setting rod.
- the mechanism according to the present invention belongs to the previous category, but differs in that the kinematic chain is shorter thanks to a simplified construction in which the movable member intermediate, interposed between the pull tab and a pinion player to allow engagement or decoupling of the timer wheel is deleted.
- the invention relates to a part timepieces having at least one analog display including a time-setting mechanism by means of a intermediate return delimited by a head and a base movable along an axis perpendicular to the general plane of the plate of said timepiece enters at least a neutral position in which said reference 10 is decoupled from a timer wheel and a setting position at the time in which it meshes with said wheel of timer, said intermediate reference being moved by one to the other position by translation of a rod of time setting with a cooperating circular groove with a zipper, characterized in that the zipper has an arm that can occupy a first position in which said arm presses directly on the head of the intermediate dismissal requested at its base by elastic means for holding said reference disengaged, and a second position in which said arm releases the head of the referral which is then pushed by the elastic means towards the setting position time.
- the elastic means is for example formed by a clutch spring.
- the time setting mechanism has a leaf spring with one end attached on the turntable.
- the arm attack of the pull tab on the head of the intermediate return is facilitated by giving the end of the arm a shape tilted outward from the general plane of the room and making a chamfer on the said end of the intermediate return.
- the zipper arm can have a simple chamfer and the end of the intermediate return have a shape conical or frustoconical.
- the mechanism basically comprises, on a P stage defining the general plan of the timepiece, a rod 1 for actuating a pull tab 4 which acts directly on an intermediate reference 10, mobile on a shaft 13 - visible in the sectional figures - perpendicular to the general plane of the timepiece, by applying pressure in the direction of the shaft 13 against the elastic force of a clutch spring 15, now thus the intermediate reference 10 disengaged from the timer wheel 20.
- the timer that causes the display by hands is therefore completely disconnected from the kinematic chain of setting the time.
- the pull tab 4 consists of a body 5 of generally elongated shape with one end pivoted on the plate on a pad 3 and includes a control arm 6 oriented substantially perpendicular to the body 5 and cooperating with a circular groove 2 of the rod 1, and the other end of which has a second arm 7, having an end 8 inclined towards the outside of the platinum P.
- the arm 7 presses on the head 11 of the reference intermediate 10 by opposing the opposite force exerted by the leaf spring 15 whose free end 16 requests the base 12 of the return and the other end of which 17 is integral with the plate, so that the wheel timer 20 is decoupled from the intermediate return.
- Figures 3 and 5 are top views corresponding to the positions shown in Figures 1 and 2 and allowing a better understanding of the functioning of the mechanism according to the invention.
- the section along the broken line IV-IV of Figure 3 shows successively, from left to right, the plate, then the middle part of the control arm 6 to the stud 3, the body 5 of the pull tab 4 to the arm 7 and finally the intermediate return 10 whose base 12 is requested by the clutch spring 15 secured to the plate P by its end 17.
- this leaf spring can be an elastic piece ensuring only the function clutch, or on the contrary an element of a part performing other functions, such as a branch of a necklace.
- the pull tab 4 may include elements for other functions as shown schematically by the pin 9, visible on the views in perspective and on top views.
- Figures 3 and 4 also show a first reference 21 engaged with a second reference 22, itself engaged permanent with intermediate reference 10, whatever its positioning along its axis 13.
- Figures 6 and 7 which are the views respectively according to section VI-VI of Figure 5 and according to section VII-VII of figure 3 show even more clearly the position of the different mobiles, respectively in time setting position and neutral position.
- the arrows shown in these figures show respectively the direction in which the force of the spring 15 in the time setting position and the direction in which exerts the pressure of the arm 7 of the pull tab 4 in neutral position.
- the first reference 21 includes a crown teeth which mesh with a pinion (not shown) mounted on a square 24 of the control rod 1, said pinion generally being a sliding pinion.
- the time-setting mechanism according to the invention therefore offers an economic advantage by eliminating a flip-flop, a construction advantage by providing a gain of space related to said deletion and an advantage in terms of the longevity of the timepiece, given that the kinematic chain is at rest in neutral position. This last point also helps reduce torque driving the hands by the timer wheel, and thereby the energy consumption, which contributes a definite advantage, especially in the case of a room electronic clock powered by a battery.
Description
La présente invention a pour objet une pièce d'horlogerie comprenant un mécanisme de mise à l'heure par action directe de la tirette sur un renvoi de minuterie, ledit mécanisme permettant de faire l'économie d'une bascule grâce à la conformation particulière de ladite tirette.The present invention relates to a part timepiece including a time-setting mechanism by direct action of the zipper on a return of timer, said mechanism for making the economy of a scale thanks to the conformation particular of said zipper.
L'invention concerne plus particulièrement une montre à affichage analogique équipée d'un tel dispositif de mise à l'heure.The invention relates more particularly to a analog display watch equipped with such time setting device.
Pour effectuer le découplage d'un renvoi de minuterie et inversement son engrènement pour effectuer la mise à l'heure, divers mécanismes ont été proposés.To decouple a transmission return timer and vice versa its meshing to perform time setting, various mechanisms have been proposed.
Par exemple, le brevet suisse No 583 933 décrit un mécanisme dans lequel le découplage d'un renvoi intermédiaire, maintenu en position engrenée par une languette élastique, est obtenu par l'action d'une portée conique de l'extrémité de la tige de remontoir sur l'extrémité de l'arbre du renvoi.For example, Swiss Patent No. 583,933 describes a mechanism in which the decoupling of a reference intermediate, held in gear position by a elastic tongue, is obtained by the action of a tapered bearing from the end of the winding stem on the end of the return shaft.
Dans d'autres constructions plus anciennes, telles que celle décrite dans le brevet US 355,752, une traction sur la tige de remontoir contre la pression d'un premier ressort à lame permet, par l'intermédiaire d'une bascule perpendiculaire au plan de la montre, de libérer la base de l'axe du pignon baladeur de mise à l'heure qui est poussé à engrener sous la pression d'un deuxième ressort à lame.In other older constructions, such than that described in US Patent 355,752, a pull on the winding stem against pressure a first leaf spring allows, via a rocker perpendicular to the plane of the watch, free the base of the sliding pinion pin from setting the hour which is pushed to mesh under the pressure of a second leaf spring.
Dans d'autres solutions plus usuelles, le mouvement imprimé à la tige de remontoir permet d'actionner une tirette qui agit sur un organe mobile intermédiaire, généralement constitué par une bascule dont un bras provoque le découplage ou l'engrènemen d'un renvoi intermédiaire avec la roue de minuterie. Ce principe a donné lieu à de nombreuses variantes. A titre d'exemple on peut citer le brevet suisse No 613 588, dans lequel la position découplée, dite aussi position neutre, ou engrenée pour la mise à l'heure, est obtenue par le déplacement vertical, c'est-à-dire perpendiculaire au plan général de la montre, d'un pignon baladeur au moyen d'une lame coudée agissant comme une bascule dans un plan perpendiculaire au plan général de la montre, ladite lame étant elle-même sollicitée par un bras de la tirette qui est commandée par la tige de mise à l'heure.In other more common solutions, the movement printed on the winding stem activates a puller which acts on an intermediate movable member, generally constituted by a rocker including an arm causes decoupling or meshing of a gear intermediate with the timer wheel. This principle has resulted in many variations. For exemple one can quote the Swiss patent No 613 588, in which the decoupled position, also called neutral position, or geared for setting the time, is obtained by the vertical displacement, i.e. perpendicular to the general plan of the watch, of a sliding pinion by means of a bent blade acting like a rocker in a plane perpendicular to the general plane of the watch, said blade being itself urged by an arm of the zipper which is controlled by the time setting rod.
Le mécanisme selon la présente invention appartient à la catégorie précédente, mais en diffère en ce que la chaíne cinématique est plus courte grâce à une construction simplifiée dans laquelle l'organe mobile intermédiaire, interposé entre la tirette et un pignon baladeur pour permettre l'engrènement ou le découplage de la roue de minuterie, est supprimé.The mechanism according to the present invention belongs to the previous category, but differs in that the kinematic chain is shorter thanks to a simplified construction in which the movable member intermediate, interposed between the pull tab and a pinion player to allow engagement or decoupling of the timer wheel is deleted.
A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet une pièce
d'horlogerie ayant au moins un affichage analogique
comprenant un mécanisme de mise à l'heure au moyen d'un
renvoi intermédiaire délimité par une tête et une base
mobile selon un axe perpendiculaire au plan général de
la platine de ladite pièce d'horlogerie entre au moins
une position neutre dans laquelle ledit renvoi 10 est
découplé d'une roue de minuterie et une position de mise
à l'heure dans laquelle il engrène avec ladite roue de
minuterie, ledit renvoi intermédiaire étant déplacé de
l'une à l'autre position par translation d'une tige de
mise à l'heure pourvue d'une gorge circulaire coopérant
avec une tirette, caractérisé en ce que la tirette
comporte un bras pouvant occuper une première position
dans laquelle ledit bras appuie directement sur la tête
du renvoi intermédiaire sollicité à sa base par des
moyens élastiques pour maintenir ledit renvoi
désengrené, et une deuxième position dans laquelle ledit
bras libère la tête du renvoi qui est alors poussé par
les moyens élastiques vers la position de mise à
l'heure. To this end, the invention relates to a part
timepieces having at least one analog display
including a time-setting mechanism by means of a
intermediate return delimited by a head and a base
movable along an axis perpendicular to the general plane of
the plate of said timepiece enters at least
a neutral position in which said
Le moyen élastique est par exemple formé par un ressort d'embrayage. Dans l'exemple qui sera décrit plus en détail ci-après le mécanisme de mise à l'heure comporte un ressort à lame dont une extrémité est fixée sur la platine.The elastic means is for example formed by a clutch spring. In the example which will be described more in detail below the time setting mechanism has a leaf spring with one end attached on the turntable.
Lors du pivotement de la tirette, l'attaque du bras de la tirette sur la tête du renvoi intermédiaire est facilitée en donnant à l'extrémité du bras une forme inclinée vers l'extérieur du plan général de la pièce d'horlogerie et en ménageant un chanfrein sur ladite extrémité du renvoi intermédiaire. De façon équivalente, le bras de la tirette peut comporter un simple chanfrein et l'extrémité du renvoi intermédiaire avoir une forme conique ou tronconique.When the pull tab is pivoted, the arm attack of the pull tab on the head of the intermediate return is facilitated by giving the end of the arm a shape tilted outward from the general plane of the room and making a chamfer on the said end of the intermediate return. Equivalently, the zipper arm can have a simple chamfer and the end of the intermediate return have a shape conical or frustoconical.
D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaítront plus clairement à la lecture de la description détaillée qui suit, faite en référence aux dessins annexés qui sont donnés ici uniquement à titre d'exemple et dans lesquels :
- la figure 1 est une vue en perspective du mécanisme en position neutre;
- la figure 2 est une vue en perspective du mécanisme en position de mise à l'heure;
- la figure 3 est une vue partielle de dessus de la figure 1;
- la figure 4 est une vue en coupe, à échelle réduite, selon la ligne IV-IV de la figure 3 passant par le ressort d'embrayage;
- la figure 5 est une vue partielle de dessus de la figure 2;
- la figure 6 est une vue en coupe, à échelle réduite, selon la ligne VI-VI de la figure 5 passant par la roue de minuterie, et
- la figure 7 est une vue en coupe, à échelle réduite, selon la ligne VII-VII de la figure 3 passant par la roue de minuterie.
- Figure 1 is a perspective view of the mechanism in the neutral position;
- Figure 2 is a perspective view of the mechanism in the time setting position;
- Figure 3 is a partial top view of Figure 1;
- Figure 4 is a sectional view, on a reduced scale, along the line IV-IV of Figure 3 passing through the clutch spring;

- Figure 7 is a sectional view, on a reduced scale, along the line VII-VII of Figure 3 passing through the timer wheel.
Aux figures 1 et 2, on a représenté en perspective uniquement le mécanisme de mise à l'heure, respectivement en position neutre lorsque la tige est poussée et en position de mise à l'heure lorsque la tige est tirée. Le mouvement de la pièce d'horlogerie et son affichage par aiguilles ne sont pas représentés comme faisant partie des connaissances générales de l'homme de métier.In Figures 1 and 2, there is shown in perspective only the time setting mechanism, respectively in neutral position when the rod is pushed and time setting position when the stem is pulled. The movement of the timepiece and its display by needles are not shown as part of general knowledge of the skilled person.
En se référant à la figure 1, on voit que le
mécanisme comporte fondamentalement, sur une platine P
définissant le plan général de la pièce d'horlogerie, une
tige 1 permettant d'actionner une tirette 4 qui agit
directement sur un renvoi intermédiaire 10, mobile sur un
arbre 13 - visible sur les figures en coupe -
perpendiculaire au plan général de la pièce d'horlogerie,
en exerçant une pression selon la direction de l'arbre 13
contre la force élastique d'un ressort d'embrayage 15, en
maintenant ainsi le renvoi intermédiaire 10 débrayé de la
roue de minuterie 20. En position neutre, la roue de
minuterie qui entraíne l'affichage par aiguilles est donc
complètement désolidarisée de la chaíne cinématique de
mise à l'heure. La tirette 4 se compose d'un corps 5 de
forme générale allongée dont une extrémité est pivotée sur
la platine sur un plot 3 et comporte un bras de commande 6
orienté sensiblement perpendiculairement au corps 5 et
coopérant avec une gorge circulaire 2 de la tige 1, et
dont l'autre extrémité comporte un deuxième bras 7,
possédant une extrémité 8 inclinée vers l'extérieur de la
platine P.Referring to Figure 1, we see that the
mechanism basically comprises, on a P stage
defining the general plan of the timepiece, a
rod 1 for actuating a
Dans la position neutre représentée aux figures 1, 3
et 4, le bras 7 appuie sur la tête 11 du renvoi
intermédiaire 10 en s'opposant à la force contraire
exercée par le ressort à lame 15 dont l'extrémité libre 16
sollicite la base 12 du renvoi et dont l'autre extrémité
17 est solidaire de la platine, de sorte que la roue de
minuterie 20 se trouve découplée du renvoi intermédiaire.In the neutral position shown in Figures 1, 3
and 4, the
Dans la position de mise à l'heure représentée aux
figures 2, 5 et 6, la tige 1 a été tirée dans le sens
représenté par la flèche de la figure 2, ce qui a entraíné
le pivotement de la tirette 4 autour du plot 3, permettant
ainsi à l'extrémité coudée 8 du bras 7 de libérer le
renvoi intermédiaire 10 qui va se déplacer sous l'action
du ressort 15 selon son axe 13 pour engrener avec la roue
de minuterie 20.In the time setting position shown in
Figures 2, 5 and 6, the rod 1 was pulled in the direction
represented by the arrow in Figure 2, which resulted
the pivoting of the
Les figures 3 et 5 sont des vues de dessus correspondant aux positions représentées aux figures 1 et 2 et permettant de mieux comprendre le fonctionnement du mécanisme selon l'invention.Figures 3 and 5 are top views corresponding to the positions shown in Figures 1 and 2 and allowing a better understanding of the functioning of the mechanism according to the invention.
En se référant maintenant à la figure 4, la coupe
selon la ligne brisée IV-IV de la figure 3 montre
successivement, de la gauche vers la droite, la platine,
puis la partie médiane du bras de commande 6 jusqu'au plot
3, le corps 5 de la tirette 4 jusqu'au bras 7 et enfin le
renvoi intermédiaire 10 dont la base 12 est sollicitée par
le ressort d'embrayage 15 solidaire de la platine P par
son extrémité 17. On fera remarquer que ce ressort à lame
peut être une pièce élastique n'assurant que la fonction
d'embrayage, ou au contraire un élément d'une pièce
assurant d'autres fonctions, tels qu'une branche d'un
sautoir. De même, la tirette 4 peut comporter des éléments
de prise pour d'autres fonctions comme représenté
schématiquement par le tenon 9, visible sur les vues en
perspective et sur les vues de dessus.Referring now to Figure 4, the section
along the broken line IV-IV of Figure 3 shows
successively, from left to right, the plate,
then the middle part of the
Quant à la chaíne cinématique de mise à l'heure, les
figures 3 et 4 font également apparaítre un premier renvoi
21 en prise avec un deuxième renvoi 22, lui-même en prise
permanente avec le renvoi intermédiaire 10, quelque soit
son positionnement le long de son axe 13.As for the time setting kinematic chain, the
Figures 3 and 4 also show a
Les figures 6 et 7, qui sont respectivement les vues
selon la coupe VI-VI de la figure 5 et selon la coupe VII-VII
de la figure 3 montrent encore plus clairement la
position des différents mobiles, respectivement en
position de mise à l'heure et en position neutre. Les
flèches représentées sur ces figures montrent
respectivement le sens dans lequel s'exerce la force du
ressort 15 en position de mise à l'heure et le sens dans
lequel s'exerce la pression du bras 7 de la tirette 4 en
position neutre.Figures 6 and 7, which are the views respectively
according to section VI-VI of Figure 5 and according to section VII-VII
of figure 3 show even more clearly the
position of the different mobiles, respectively in
time setting position and neutral position. The
arrows shown in these figures show
respectively the direction in which the force of the
De manière connue, le premier renvoi 21 comporte une
denture en couronne qui engrène avec un pignon (non
représenté) monté sur un carré 24 de la tige de commande
1, ledit pignon étant généralement un pignon coulant.In known manner, the
Le mécanisme de mise à l'heure selon l'invention offre donc un avantage économique par la suppression d'une bascule, un avantage de construction en procurant un gain de place lié à ladite suppression et un avantage au niveau de la longévité de la pièce d'horlogerie, étant donné que la chaíne cinématique est au repos en position neutre. Ce dernier point contribue également à réduire le couple d'entraínement des aiguilles par la roue de minuterie, et par là-même la consommation d'énergie, ce qui contribue un avantage certain, notamment dans le cas d'une pièce d'horlogerie électronique alimentée par une pile.The time-setting mechanism according to the invention therefore offers an economic advantage by eliminating a flip-flop, a construction advantage by providing a gain of space related to said deletion and an advantage in terms of the longevity of the timepiece, given that the kinematic chain is at rest in neutral position. This last point also helps reduce torque driving the hands by the timer wheel, and thereby the energy consumption, which contributes a definite advantage, especially in the case of a room electronic clock powered by a battery.
