The lever has a curved central portion (7) which engages with a throat in the winding crown (3) such thatthe latter may not inadvertently slide longitudinally. In the locked position the lever (2) is secured by an elongated semicircular section (6) which fits over a locking stop (5).

Description

La présente invention est relative au domaine de l'horlogerie, plus particulièrement à un dispositif de verrouillage du mécanisme de remontage et mise à l'heure d'une montre.The present invention relates to the field of watchmaking, more particularly to a device for locking the winding mechanism and setting the time of a watch.

La plupart des montres, que ce soit de type mécanique ou à quartz, ont nécessairement besoin d'un mécanisme de mise à l'heure. Pour les montres mécaniques, ce mécanisme permet également l'apport d'énergie extérieure nécessaire à leur fonctionnement. Ce mécanisme est actionné par une couronne extérieure habituellement placée sur un coté de la montre et appelé couronne de remontoir. Cette dernière permet d'accéder aux autres fonctions que propose la montre tels que le quantième du mois ou le changement de fuseau horaire.Most watches, whether mechanical or quartz, have necessarily need a time-setting mechanism. For watches mechanical, this mechanism also allows the external energy supply necessary for their operation. This mechanism is activated by a outer crown usually placed on one side of the watch and called winding crown. The latter provides access to other functions that the watch offers such as the calendar of the month or the change of time zone.

Lors de plongées à grande profondeur, la couronne de remontoir est un élément sensible au niveau de l'étanchéité car la pression extérieure de l'eau sur le boítier est forte et de l'eau peut passer par les joints de la couronne de remontoir. De plus, il est possible en cours de plongée que le poignet vienne heurter un objet et que la couronne soit par inadvertance tirée dans sa position de mise à l'heure. Ceci a deux graves conséquences, d'une part sur l'étanchéité qui est moindre dans cette position, et d'autre part sur un possible déréglage ou arrêt de la montre. Cette dernière conséquence est particulièrement dangereuse car la modification de l'heure peut provoquer des accidents (faux calculs de la durée de plongée et des paliers).During deep dives, the winding crown is a sensitive element in terms of tightness because the external water pressure on the case is strong and water can pass through the seals of the crown winder. In addition, it is possible during the dive that the wrist comes strike an object and the crown is inadvertently pulled into position time setting. This has two serious consequences, on the one hand on sealing which is less in this position, and on the other hand on a possible adjustment or watch stop. This last consequence is particularly dangerous because changing the time can cause accidents (false dive time and step calculations).

Une solution largement répandue dans le domaine des montres de plongée est l'utilisation d'une couronne de remontoir vissée, c'est-à-dire que préalablement à une plongée, on visse la couronne de remontoir dans la carrure. Pour permettre de tourner la couronne dans sa fonction de remontage du barillet sans engager la partie vissée de la couronne dans la carrure, la couronne intègre un ressort qui exerce une pression qui sépare les deux parties filetées. Pour engager le filetage de la couronne dans la carrure, il est nécessaire de presser la couronne contre la carrure. Dans la position vissée, la couronne vient en butée contre la carrure où l'on place habituellement un joint supplémentaire pour assurer une bonne étanchéité. Si cette solution garantit une bonne protection en regard des deux problèmes cités, elle a l'inconvénient de nécessiter une opération avant la plongée sans quoi elle est totalement inefficace.A widely used solution in the field of diving watches is the use of a screw-down winding crown, i.e. beforehand on a dive, you screw the winding crown into the middle. For allow the crown to be turned in its barrel winding function without engaging the screwed part of the crown in the middle, the crown incorporates a spring which exerts a pressure which separates the two threaded parts. To engage the thread of the crown in the middle, it is necessary to press the crown against the middle. In the screwed position, the crown comes in abutment against the middle where an additional seal is usually placed to ensure a good seal. If this solution guarantees good protection with regard to the two problems mentioned, it has the disadvantage of require an operation before the dive otherwise it is completely ineffective.

Une autre solution a été développée et met en oeuvre un pont spécial entourant la couronne de remontoir qui dispose d'un levier venant presser le remontoir contre la carrure. Cette solution se trouve notamment sur les montres italiennes de plongée Panarai®.Another solution has been developed and implements a special bridge surrounding the winding crown which has a lever which presses the winding against the middle. This solution is found in particular on Italian watches Panarai® diving.

Cette solution, bien que donnant de bons résultats sur le plan technique, est volumineuse et élargit passablement la montre.This solution, while giving good technical results, is bulky and fairly broadens the watch.

Le but de la présente invention est de pouvoir disposer d'un mécanisme compact bloquant la couronne de remontoir dans sa position de repos, c'est-à-dire dans la position de remontage du barillet, et empêchant ainsi de tirer la couronne intempestivement.The object of the present invention is to be able to have a mechanism compact blocking the winding crown in its rest position, i.e. in the barrel reassembly position, and thus preventing the untimely crowns.

Le but visé par l'invention est réalisé par l'utilisation d'une couronne de remontoir comportant une gorge et d'un levier dont la partie centrale vient en appui sur cette gorge.The object of the invention is achieved by the use of a crown of winder comprising a groove and a lever, the central part of which comes in support on this throat.

La forme particulière de la couronne de remontoir, dit en H, permet d'obtenir un verrouillage très compact qui ne dépasse pas la longueur de la couronne. La partie centrale du levier vient se poser sur la gorge que forme le petit diamètre du H. L'une des extrémités du levier est en rotation sur un axe et l'autre extrémité vient se bloquer de l'autre côté de la couronne. Ainsi, lorsque le levier est en place, il forme un ensemble rigide s'étendant depuis l'axe de rotation, passe entre les deux flasques de la couronne et se termine sur la fermeture.The particular shape of the winding crown, called H, allows to obtain a very compact lock that does not exceed the length of the crown. The central part of the lever comes to rest on the groove formed by the small diameter of H. One end of the lever is rotating on an axis and the other end is blocked on the other side of the crown. So when the lever is in place, it forms a rigid assembly extending from the axis of rotation, passes between the two flanges of the crown and ends on the closure.

Cette fermeture peut se faire de plusieurs manières, par exemple par clipsage sur un axe. This closure can be done in several ways, for example by clipping on an axis.

La rotation manuelle de la couronne est assurée grâce aux dentures situées sur la périphérie des deux flasques.The manual rotation of the crown is ensured thanks to the teeth located on the periphery of the two flanges.

L'avantage de cette solution est sa simplicité, sa robustesse et son élégance. Elle bloque la couronne à tout moment car il n'est pas possible de laisser le levier ouvert, ce qui n'est pas le cas de la couronne vissée par exemple.The advantage of this solution is its simplicity, robustness and elegance. It blocks the crown at all times because it is not possible to leave the lever open, which is not the case with the screwed crown for example.

L'invention sera mieux comprise grâce à la description détaillée des dessins, pris à titre nullement limitatif, dans lesquels :

  • la Figure 1 est une vue de dessus d'une montre de plongée avec le levier de verrouillage dans sa position ouverte,
  • la Figure 2 est une vue de profil de cette montre, également avec le levier dans la position ouverte,
  • la Figure 3 est une vue de profil d'une variante d'exécution de la couronne de remontoir.
The invention will be better understood thanks to the detailed description of the drawings, taken without any limitation being implied, in which:
  • FIG. 1 is a top view of a diving watch with the locking lever in its open position,
  • FIG. 2 is a side view of this watch, also with the lever in the open position,
  • Figure 3 is a side view of an alternative embodiment of the winding crown.

Sur la Figure 1, une couronne de remontoir 3 est montée sur la carrure de la montre 1. Cette couronne 3 a une gorge de diamètre réduit en son milieu pour laisser passer un levier 2. Ce levier est d'un côté solidaire à un premier pivot 4, et de l'autre coté peut se clipser sur un deuxième pivot 5. Ces deux pivots sont montés sur la carrure de part et d'autre de la couronne, soit par vissage ou sertissage. Ainsi, la partie centrale du levier 7 vient se placer entre les deux flasques dentées de la couronne de remontoir 3 en épousant la forme de sa gorge centrale, interdisant au dit remontoir 3 de se déplacer longitudinalement. La partie finale du levier 6 vient, quant à elle, se poser sur le pivot 5 assurant une bonne tenue mécanique à l'ensemble.In Figure 1, a winding crown 3 is mounted on the middle of the shows 1. This crown 3 has a groove of reduced diameter in the middle for pass a lever 2. This lever is on one side integral with a first pivot 4, and on the other side can be clipped onto a second pivot 5. These two pivots are mounted on the middle on either side of the crown, either by screwing or crimping. Thus, the central part of the lever 7 is placed between the two toothed flanges of the winding crown 3 matching the shape of its central groove, preventing said winder 3 from moving longitudinally. The final part of the lever 6 comes, for its part, to rest on the pivot 5 ensuring good mechanical resistance to the whole.

Sur la Figure 2, on voit l'agencement des deux pivots 4 et 5 représentés dans leurs exécutions vissées. Il faut noter que pour pouvoir clipser correctement la partie 6 du levier 2 sur le pivot 5, il est nécessaire que la forme de l'arche 6 dépasse légèrement le diamètre de l'axe du pivot 5 pour revenir sous celui-ci et ainsi agir comme retenue. Dans une autre forme d'exécution, au lieu de se clipser sur l'axe du pivot 5, la retenue se fait sur la gorge du remontoir par la partie 7 du levier 2.In Figure 2, we see the arrangement of the two pivots 4 and 5 shown in their executions screwed. Note that to be able to clip the part 6 of the lever 2 on the pivot 5, it is necessary that the shape of the arch 6 slightly exceeds the diameter of the axis of pivot 5 to return below it and thus act as restraint. In another embodiment, instead of clip on the axis of the pivot 5, the retention is made on the winding groove by the part 7 of lever 2.

La Figure 3 montre une variante de la couronne de remontoir 3 comprenant une flasque extérieure 9, une flasque intérieure 11, et la gorge centrale 10. La particularité de cette couronne est qu'elle présente, sur la face interne de la flasque intérieure 11, un léger chanfrein 8. Ainsi, lorsque le levier 2 est mis en place, la partie centrale 7 s'insérant entre les deux flasques 9 et 11 vient glisser sur le chanfrein 8 et exerce une pression sur la couronne 3 qui est poussée contre la carrure. Non seulement la couronne de remontoir 3 ne peut se déplacer longitudinalement, mais elle est maintenue en pression dans sa position de remontage, garantissant de ce fait une excellente étanchéité.Figure 3 shows a variant of the winding crown 3 comprising a outer flange 9, an inner flange 11, and the central groove 10. The peculiarity of this crown is that it presents, on the internal face of the inner flange 11, a slight chamfer 8. Thus, when the lever 2 is put in place, the central part 7 inserted between the two flanges 9 and 11 comes to slide on the chamfer 8 and exerts pressure on the crown 3 which is pushed against the middle. Not only can the winding crown 3 not be move longitudinally but it is kept under pressure in its reassembly position, thereby ensuring an excellent seal.

Ce type de réalisation, bien que initialement prévu pour les montres de plongée ne se limite pas à celles-ci et peut s'appliquer à tout type de montre au vu de l'intérêt que le verrouillage de la couronne peut susciter. En effet, ce verrouillage peut être proposé pour des montres non prévues pour la plongée mais destinées par exemple à des sports d'action, et auxquelles on souhaite ajouter cette option de verrouillage de la couronne.This type of achievement, although initially planned for diving watches is not limited to these and can be applied to any type of watch in view of the interest that locking the crown can arouse. Indeed, this locking can be proposed for watches not intended for diving but intended for example for action sports, and which we want add this crown lock option.

On peut envisager différentes variantes de la présente invention, notamment en supprimant la flasque extérieure 9 qui ne contribue pas directement au verrouillage du remontoir 3. Il est possible aussi de bloquer la rotation du remontoir en réalisant la gorge 10 du remontoir de manière différente que cylindrique, par exemple avec une denture ou de forme polygonale. De cette manière, la partie centrale 7 du levier 2, de même forme, vient se mettre en face des dents ou plats de la gorge 10 de la couronne de remontoir et assure ainsi un blocage de la rotation.We can envisage different variants of the present invention, in particular in removing the outer flange 9 which does not directly contribute to the locking the crown 3. It is also possible to block the rotation of the winder by making the groove 10 of the winder in a different way than cylindrical, for example with a toothing or of polygonal shape. Of this way, the central part 7 of the lever 2, of the same shape, comes to set face of the teeth or flats of the throat 10 of the winding crown and ensures thus blocking the rotation.
