Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a watch crystal comprising an optical lens shaped in the thickness ice material, as well as a method of manufacture of such a lens.
  • the lens is protruding on the upper face or the lower face of the glass, its shape can be arbitrary.
  • the lens can then be made of a block with the ice if it is produced by molding, for example of a material synthetic such as PMMA.
  • the ice is made of a hard material such as sapphire, which is difficult to machine and polish, such a protruding lens is usually made separately, then glued to the ice cream. This presents mounting difficulties and risks of delamination during use.
  • the lenses protruding are exposed to wear and shock if they are on the outside of the glass, or have a annoying bulk vis-à-vis the watch hands if they are on the inside.
  • Patent EP 0 123 891 describes a process for forming such a lens in a plate mineral matter, especially sapphire, by machining with by means of a rotary grinding wheel with an oscillating movement of the grinding wheel or plate. In practice, this process does not only suitable for the production of circular lenses.
  • Another construction consists in separately manufacturing the lens and the plate intended to form the ice, to spare in the thickness of the plate a blind housing having a depth substantially equal to the thickness of the lens, then fix the lens in this housing.
  • the plate and the lens can be in particular glass, spinel, corundum or sapphire. This has the advantage to allow a non-circular shape of the lens, by example an elongated shape to facilitate the reading of a indication in a rectangular window.
  • the manufacturing process remains rather complicated, in particular because you have to machine and polish the recess in addition to two sides of the lens, and the risk of the lens remains.
  • the present invention aims to avoid the drawbacks mentioned above, in particular with glasses and lenses in hard material, by making a simple watch crystal, resistant and attractive.
  • a basic idea of the invention consists in making a corundum, sapphire or spinel watch glass, comprising an optical lens shaped in the thickness of ice material, this lens having a non-circular periphery.
  • the periphery may have re-entrant angles and may be for example rectangular.
  • another aspect of the invention relates to a method for manufacturing an optical lens non-circular in the thickness of a watch glass in hard mineral matter, especially of corundum, sapphire or spinel, characterized in that it comprises the stages successive consisting of forming by machining in one face ice, a recess with a non-circular periphery, the recess having side walls and a curved bottom intended to constitute a surface of the lens, and to polish at least the bottom of the recess using a brush back and forth to strike the bottom, with the addition of a polishing agent.
  • Machining can be carried out for example by ultrasound by means of a sonotrode, or by etching by means of a rotary tool.
  • the brush can be animated, in addition to its back and forth movement, of a transverse movement, for example thanks to a rotation about a substantially perpendicular axis ice and located away from the lens.
  • Watch glass 1 shown in Figures 1 and 3 is made of a hard transparent crystalline material of the corundum family, for example sapphire or spinel. It can have any shape in plan, which is a barrel shape in this case as well that in elevation, for example a flat, domed or facets.
  • Figure 3 shows a case where the face upper 2 and the lower face 3 of the glass are planar.
  • a rectangular converging lens 4 is made in the thickness of the material of the ice 1, its shape being determined by a recess 5 formed in the underside 3 of the ice. This recess presents side walls 6 around its periphery and a curved bottom 7 constituting the lower surface of the lens 4.
  • the upper surface 8 of the lens is formed directly by the upper face 2 of the glass.
  • lens 4 has a shape particularly elongated rectangular, allowing read for example a date indicated in the form of the day of the week and the calendar.
  • the surface domed lower 7 of the lens will preferably have a cylindrical shape.
  • Figure 2 shows an example of a mirror 11 in the thickness of which a lens is formed spherical 12 having a non-circular plane shape any, allowing to obtain aesthetic effects individuals.
  • the periphery of the lens 12 may have in particular straight sides 13, curved sides 14 and inside corners 15. The watch designer has thus greater freedom of choice.
  • Glass 1 and its lens 4 can be produced as follows. Before making the lens, we can make ice 1 by conventional methods machining and polishing the material from which it is made. However, note that the polishing of its underside can be done at least partially after machining the lens, that is to say at the same time as the polishing of the curved face 7 of the lens.
  • Machining for lens shaping 4 consists in digging the recess 5 in the face 3 of the ice by any suitable technique.
  • a technique preferred is that of ultrasonic machining using of a sonotrode 20 as shown in FIG. 4, the ultrasonic vibration being represented by the double arrow 21.
  • the glass 1 is placed upside down on an anvil 22.
  • the end 23 of the sonotrode has a shape three-dimensional which corresponds to the desired final shape of the recess 5.
  • the sonotrode 20 is filled with diamond and a liquid is also injected loaded with diamond powder through 24 conduits to the end of the sonotrode. This machining produces a recess 5 whose surfaces are matt and whose side walls 6 are substantially perpendicular to the side 3 of the ice.
  • Another machining method that can be used to form the recess 5 is that of the engraving by means of a tool rotary such as a diamond cutter by copying from of a model. If the plan shape of the recess is present re-entrant angles, these will then be slightly rounded.
  • the side walls 6 can be inclined one way or the other compared to normal to the side 3.
  • a polishing agent such as a paste or a liquid (especially oil or beeswax) loaded with diamond powder is applied to the ice, by example by injection through brush 33.
  • a polishing agent such as a paste or a liquid (especially oil or beeswax) loaded with diamond powder is applied to the ice, by example by injection through brush 33.
  • the brush 33 also has a transverse displacement opposite each window, so that the bristles of the brush move relative to the surfaces to be polished.
  • this displacement is obtained simply by a rotation 38 around the axis 36 of the brush, this axis being located at a distance from the glass and lenses.
  • the process described above is characterized by a great simplicity, since the lens can be polished the same time as ice, and it provides lenses of any shape, shaped in the material ice itself.
  • This process is particularly advantageous compared to the manufacture of a lens added according to document EP 0 814 388, which required to machine and polish the two sides of the glass, the recess intended to receive the lens, as well than the two sides of the lens made separately. he also avoids the problems associated with adjusting the lens in its housing, sticking and the risk of peeling off.
