Definitions
- the present invention relates to an electric timepiece such as that, in particular, a wristwatch, supplied with electric current by a accumulator intended to be recharged after exhaustion, as well as means for recharging this accumulator.
- the device for recharging the accumulator described in the aforementioned patent includes a metal rod passing through a sleeve made of an electrically insulating material, this sleeve itself housed in a second reinforcement sleeve.
- This last sleeve, which is metallic, is driven into the middle of the watch case.
- the inner end of the rod is in contact with the upper face of the accumulator which constitutes one of the poles of this accumulator, while the outer end of said rod is pierced with a blind hole intended to receive the plug from a charging device.
- the outer end of the rod is protected by a cap removable in the form of a winding crown.
- the battery can be recharged using a battery of flash light.
- Charging device includes two metal blades electrically isolated from each other. One of the blades carries a conical plug intended to penetrate into the blind hole of the charging rod described above. The other blade of the recharging device is in contact with ground of the watch, for example with the time setting crown. The battery then recharge the accumulator, one night generally sufficient for the accumulator can again supply the movement for several month.
- Such a recharging device advantageously makes it possible to recharge the accumulator supplying a watch with electric current without being necessary, to carry out this recharging operation, open then, at again, to close the watch case in order to be able to extract and then replace the accumulator in said box. We can thus recharge the accumulator disposed inside the watch case from the outside thereof.
- the object of the present invention is to remedy the problems and disadvantages above as well as others by proposing a system to recharge the accumulator of a particularly simple and inexpensive watch expensive.
- the present invention relates to a timepiece, in particular a wristwatch, supplied with electric current by a accumulator intended to be recharged after exhaustion, this part timepiece comprising a time-setting rod and at least one control of at least one watch function of said timepiece, characterized in that the time-setting rod is electrically connected to one of the poles of the accumulator, and in that the control member can be electrically connected to the other pole of the accumulator after pressing said organ.
- the present invention relates also a timepiece of the kind described above, this piece timepieces comprising at least a first and a second command each commanding at least one watch function of said timepiece, characterized in that each of the first and second control elements can be connected to one of the poles of the accumulator after pressure on said organ.
- the accumulator of the watch using only the means the watch wears for the adjustment and activation of its usual watch functions. It is therefore not no need to add additional parts such as a contact rod or other to be able to connect the accumulator of said shows to a charging device.
- the construction of the watch is found therefore simplified, which significantly limits manufacturing costs. Likewise, the tightness of the box is not altered.
- the one or more control devices are push buttons.
- the charging circuit of the accumulator is only closed when the push button (s) are which prevents any risk of inadvertent discharge of the battery when the watch is not placed on the charging device.
- the pushbuttons can, in fact, be easily isolated of a metal box insofar as they do not mesh with the watch movement but act by simple electrical contact, by example with a printed circuit board, to control the functions of the said watch.
- the present invention proceeds from the general inventive idea which consists in recharge the battery of a watch using only the means conventionally wears such a watch for adjusting and activating its usual watch functions.
- the watch accumulator a control member of this watch which, in its rest position, is not in electrical contact with the terminal the accumulator to which it is connected, so that any risk of discharge nuisance of this accumulator in normal condition of use of the watch is avoided.
- the timepiece according to the invention can be, for example, a wristwatch. It is shown schematically in Figure 1 and designated as a whole by the general reference numeral 1. It notably includes a middle part 2, metallic or not, crossed by a time-setting rod 4 and by at least one control member 6 controlling at least one watch function of said watch 1.
- the control member 6 is of the type pushbutton.
- This push button 6 mainly consists of a rod elongated metallic 8 preferably, but not exclusively, shaped cylindrical.
- the middle part 2 of the watch is metallic, the rod 8 of the push button 6 passes through a sleeve 10 made of a material electrically insulating as shown schematically in Figure 2. This sleeve 10 is driven into the middle 2 of watch 1.
- the middle part 2 of watch 1 defines a central cavity in which take place, in a conventional manner, a watch movement, means display such as an hour hand, a minute hand and a second hand moving on a dial, as well as other organs such as, in particular, a printed circuit 12 on which a module is mounted control electronics 14 controlling the movement of watch making of said watch 1.
- the electronic control module 14 is supplied with current by an accumulator 16 intended to be recharged after exhaustion.
- the accumulator 16 shown schematically in Figure 1, has typically the shape of a pellet. It can be accommodated in the bottom of the shows 1.
- the underside of the accumulator 16 which constitutes its pole negative 18 is electrically connected to the metal base and therefore to the middle part metallic 2, i.e. to the ground of watch 1, for example by via a spring contact fixed on the inner surface of the bottom of said watch 1.
- the positive pole 20 of the accumulator 16 which is constituted by its upper face is usually connected to the positive input terminal 22 of the electronic control circuit 14 which forms the second conductor power supply for the watch movement 1.
- the watch in particular the back and the middle of the latter, can be made of an electrically insulating material such as a material plastic.
- one of the poles of the accumulator 16 is connected by an electrical connection to the time setting rod 4, the other pole of said accumulator 16 remaining connected to the input terminal 22 of the control circuit 14.
- poles of the accumulator 16 can be inverted, the underside of the round stack constituting its positive pole 20, and the negative pole 18 then being located on top of this stack.
- the positive pole 20 is electrically connected to the ground of watch 1.
- the time setting rod 4 includes essentially a control pin 24 entering an opening lateral 26 of the middle part 2 which guides the axis 24 in translation and in rotation.
- the lateral opening 26 is conventionally oriented along a horizontal axis 3 a.m. to 9 a.m.
- the control axis 24 first comprises a crown winder 28 so that the user of watch 1 can operate this axis 24 in translation and in rotation.
- Axis 24 also includes three grooves 32a, 32b and 32c which cooperate with one end 34a of a spring 34 to define three axial positions of said axis 24. In FIG. 1, the end 34a of the spring 34 is engaged with the groove 32b to define the position of the mechanism in which the date correction wheel 30 is driven.
- FIG. 1 It can be seen in FIG. 1 that the positive 20 and negative 18 poles of the accumulator 16 are respectively connected to the positive input terminals 22 and negative 36 of the electronic control circuit 14.
- the push button 6 is electrically connected to the positive pole 20 of accumulator 16
- time-setting rod 4 is connected to the ground of watch 1, that is to say to the negative pole 18 of said accumulator 16. It is thus possible, as we will see in detail below, to recharge the accumulator 16 from outside the watch 1 to by means of a recharging apparatus 38 whose electrical outlets 40 and 42 go be received by the push button 6 and the time setting rod 4 respectively.
- the push button 6 has a push head 44 and the push rod metal 8.
- the push rod 8 is slidably arranged at the interior of a generally cylindrical housing 46 formed in the middle 2 of the watch 1.
- the push rod 8 moves axially in the housing 46 against the return force of a spring 48 when a control thrust is applied to the pusher head 44.
- the return spring 48 is disposed in a housing 50 formed in the pusher head 44 and bears axially on the bottom 52 of a cavity 54 provided in the middle part 2.
- the push rod 8 has in one place of its length an annular groove 56 in which is housed a seal seal 58. This seal 58 ensures the sealed closure of the housing 46 when the rod 8 slides therein when the push button is actuated 6 by a user.
- the push button 6 also includes a retaining means 60 which exerts on the push rod 8 a force sufficient to act against the return force of the spring 48 and thus prevent said rod 8 from escaping of the housing 46 in which it slides.
- the retaining means 60 is a W-shaped key which is engaged in an annular groove 62 that presents the push rod 8 towards its end opposite the head of pusher 44. In normal condition of use, the key 60 is therefore always pressed against the inner face of the middle part 2 of the watch 1. It only moves when a control push is applied to the push button 6.
- Key 60 is obtained by cutting or stamping a sheet metallic according to a particular contour and by folding so as to exert, after its installation, both the key and contact means functions.
- the key 60 is made up for this purpose of two blades 64a and 64b extending in the general plane of said key 60. These two blades 64a, 64b are interconnected in their upper part by a notch 66 in the form of V intended to come to engage in the annular groove 62 of the push rod 8 to form a key. Downward, each of the blades 64a, 64b is extended beyond a fold 68a, 68b by a small contact tab curved 70a, 70b. It is clear from FIG.
- the tab of contact 70a is projected at a certain angle outside the general plane of the key 60 for establishing a contact, for example a ground contact, on an area of the printed circuit 12 as will be seen later.
- the notch 66 is extended by a tongue 72 folded substantially at 90 ° relative to on the plane of the key 60.
- the printed circuit 12 on which the electronic module of control 14 has two contact pads 74a, 74b which consist of each of a semi-cylindrical hole having a metallized vertical wall 76a, 76b disposed opposite the contact tabs 70a, 70b respective of the key 60.
- One of these holes is electrically connected to the module control 14, while the other hole is connected to the positive pole 20 of the accumulator.
- the tongue 72 which extends the notch 66 to 90 ° relative to the plane of the key 60 abuts on the printed circuit 12 in case the key 60 would leave the annular groove 62 of the push rod 8 in which it is engaged. The key 60 therefore does not risk falling into movement watchmaker of the watch that it could damage.
- the push button 6 is connected electrically to the positive pole 20 of the accumulator 16, while the rod of setting time 4 is connected to the ground of watch 1, i.e. to the pole negative 18 of said accumulator 16.
- this is placed on the charging device 38.
- the sockets 40 and 42 of the charging device 38 are then received by the push button 6 and time setting rod 4 respectively.
- the catch electric 42 which comes into contact with the time setting rod 4 can be consist of a simple metal blade.
- the push button 6 includes a metal pusher head 44 driven onto the pusher rod 8. It must then be ensured that this metallic pusher head 44 does not short circuit with its neighborhood.
- the pusher head 44 is made of a molded plastic or elastomer by hot injection so as to bond to the push rod 8.
- the metal push rod 8 arrives flush with the head pusher 44 or protrudes slightly from the surface of said head pusher 44, so that electrical contact can be made with the socket electric 40 of the charging device 38.
- the rod pusher 8 is embedded in the pusher head 44 made of a material relatively soft plastic or elastomer.
- the appliance's electrical outlet 40 38 then has an extremely tapered tip 78 which is capable of easily penetrating the soft material of which the head is made pusher 44 and come into electrical contact with the pusher rod 8.
- the timepiece 1 can comprise at least two control elements each controlling at least one watch function of said timepiece.
- these control elements are constituted by four push buttons 6 'of the genre described above.
- These four 6 'pushbuttons include in particular each a retaining means 60 ′ cut and folded so as to exercise, after its installation, both the key and means of contact.
- the retaining means 60 ′ are facing keys which is provided, each time, a pair of contact pads 74'a, 74'b formed in the printed circuit 12 '.
- These contact pads 74'a, 74'b are each consist of a semi-cylindrical hole with a vertical wall metallic 76'a, 76'b.
- a hole in each pair of ranges of contact 74'a, 74'b is electrically connected to the electronic module of control 14 ', while the other hole is connected to the ground of watch 1, that is to say at the negative pole 18 'of the accumulator 16'.
- the other pairs of holes 74'a, 74'b except for a pair whose hole will be connected to the positive pole 20 'of the accumulator 16'.
- one of the push buttons 6 ' in this case the one located at the top right of Figure 9, will connected to the positive pole 20 'of the accumulator 16', while the other three push buttons 6 'will be connected to the negative pole 18' of the same 16 'accumulator.
