Definitions

  • the object of the present invention is to produce a date display mechanism large format for all watch movements, in particular watches and clocks, allowing an easy reading of the date, whose construction is simple since it requires and combines a reduced number of parts and mobiles.
  • This invention also aims to reduce the volume (in particular by reducing the height) of the above-described mechanism and to make it, once the preassembled mobiles easily adaptable to all existing watch movements comprising a traditional date indication by crown, since this mechanism can be driven by the date crown of the movement of the watch concerned which will be modified accordingly.
  • the subject of this invention is a large format date display mechanism for all movements of watches and clocks making it possible to achieve the above-described aim and comprising the characteristics defined in claim 1.
  • a timepiece displaying the large calendar in the CH 310 559 which includes three superimposed drive wheels, one star wheel of 31 teeth, a wheel of 30 teeth and a free space and a wheel of 4 teeth.
  • the 31-tooth star wheel turns in thirty-one days and is in solidarity with the wheel of thirty teeth plus free space occupying the place of the thirty and first tooth.
  • the free space of the wheel of thirty teeth comes in look of the teeth of a pinion secured to the disc of units which is then not driven by the wheel of thirty teeth and then remains stationary for two consecutive days. This stop occurs when the number "1" on the disc units can be found in the date window so that this figure is visible two days in a row, and is used to display the thirty-first of the month and the first of the month next.
  • the object of the present invention is to remedy, less in part to these disadvantages.
  • the present invention relates to a date display mechanism for a timepiece according to claim 1.
  • the mechanism firstly comprises a programmed crown 1 intended either for replace the original date crown, or to be fixed on this crown original 2.
  • This programmed crown has two teeth each representing a path and both composed of 31 teeth, of variable length, height and size.
  • a kinematic chain drives this crown at the rate of one step per day from the hour wheel of the watch movement (plane A) to rotate complete in 31 days.
  • This training is discontinuous and the step takes place around midnight each day.
  • This programmed crown 1 could also be driven by a stepper motor pitch (quartz movement) and a gear driven by this motor, motor driven by a electronic movement timepiece.
  • the programmed toothed crown has an internal toothing 3 of 31 teeth forming the drive path of the units and an internal toothing 4 of 31 teeth also forming the drive path for the tens of the date display.
  • the teeth 3 and 4 can be in the same plane in which case the teeth forming the path tens will be longer than those of the toothing forming the path of the units.
  • the teeth 3 and 4 can also be offset in height so that the toothing forming the path of the units lies in a higher plane than the toothing forming the path of tens.
  • Plan C consists of a plate 5 surrounding the programmed crown and intended for be fixed to the watch movement (plan A).
  • This plate 5 comprises a light in an arc of a circle 6 allowing the passage of the date crown (1 or combination 1, 2 of the programmed crown).
  • This mechanism also includes a mobile unit and a mobile tens.
  • the mobile unit is composed of a star of units 7 of 10 integral teeth, a unit display disk 8 having on its upper surface numbers from 0 to 9 arranged tangentially and distributed uniformly along the periphery of this drive disc 8.
  • This mobile unit 7, 8 pivots on the plate 5 and remains held by a screw 9; he is positioned so that the teeth of the star of units 7 are at the same level as the path formed by the internal toothing 3 of the programmed crown.
  • the tens mobile is made up of a tens star 10 of 4, 8 or 12 teeth integral with a tens display disc 11 having on its upper surface numbers from 0 to 3 (one, two or three sets of numbers) arranged tangentially and distributed uniformly along the periphery of this tens disc 11.
  • This tens mobile 11 pivots on the plate 5 and is held by an axial screw 12; he is positioned so that the teeth of the tens 10 star are at the same level as the path formed by the internal toothing 4 of the programmed crown.
  • a spring with two branches 13 is fixed to the plate 5 by an axial screw 14 and each of these branches constitutes a jumper coming into contact with stars 7 and 10 to block their angular parts between two successive actuations.
  • the two mobiles consisting respectively of the notched star 7, of the display disc 8 as well as the axial screw 9, for one, and notched star 10, of the display disc 11 as well as the axial screw 12, for the other, are completely independent one of the other.
  • the mechanism is provided with a dial 15 pierced by a large window 16 with 2 windows of a dimension, in principle minimum 2 x 4 mm, dial covering the entire mechanism and is fixed using feet 17 (4 in number) on the plate 5.
  • the unit display disc advances by one not per day and performs a complete tour in 10 days thus annotating for each day the digit of the units corresponding to the date in the window 16 of the dial 15 unless it This is the third revolution that takes place in 11 days, the path programmed by the toothing 3 leaving a tooth inactive when unit 1 goes from the 31st day of a month to first day of the following month.
  • the tens disc 11 advances by one, two or three steps every ten days so that the number corresponding to the tens of date appears in window 16 of dial 15.
  • This mechanism makes it possible to have the large window 16 of the dial 15 in numerous points of the dial surface 15 provided that the two display discs are symmetrically fixed on each side of an axis so that the tens and the units meet and be displayed respectively to the left and right of the tangent.
  • topological implantation of the mechanism, object of this invention allows a variation of layout of the window going on an open angle between 11H and 1H on the top of the dial and on an open angle between 5H and 7H on the bottom of the dial.
  • the mechanism has a very limited number of parts and only three mobiles (two mobiles on plane D and one mobile on plane B). It can be fully assembled and pre-shown on plate 5 with the exception of the programmed crown 1 which is place on the movement.
  • the plate is then equipped with the dial which will allow display of the large date calendar.
  • the window 16 is twice as large as that of a conventional window.
  • the volume of the mechanism is very low which allows adaptation on all the currently existing movements providing for the date display.
  • the object of this invention is to manufacture and produce a movement of watches or clocks provided with a mechanism for displaying the large format calendar as described above.
