Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an analog indicator device for timepiece according to the preamble of claim 1 and the use of this device.
  • Chronographs and chronograph watches have been made up to now in many forms that differ from each other mainly by the mode of presentation of the control and display organs, the materials used, the appearance, etc.
  • These timepieces generally comprise a so-called second hand driven with a period of one revolution per minute, and which can be stopped at will to read the timed time.
  • the dial has divisions marking sub-periods corresponding to seconds. The reading of the sub-period fractions can be made approximately at the fifth of a second if the balance-spring system oscillates at 18'000 alternations. For optical reasons, a higher reading accuracy is hardly possible, even with timepieces having a frequency higher than the usual frequency.
  • the chronograph includes, in addition to the second hand hand indicating the number of seconds elapsed, counters, for example a counter of minutes or hours, totaling minutes or hours elapsed.
  • a device using the principle of the vernier for the purpose of displaying the hours and minutes using the only mobile hours is described in the patent DE 39 07 873 A .
  • the purpose of this device is to reduce the number of indicators, including removing the minute hand, which reduces the energy consumption of the movement.
  • the dial has five beaches in the form of concentric circular rings on each of which are distributed eleven equidistant marks, so as to obtain 55 equal circular sectors, each of the marks on a defined range being shifted from the nearest reference mark lying on the (or both) adjacent range (s) of an angle of 6.5 °.
  • a disc-shaped hour wheel surmounting the dial also has five concentric circular beaches on each of which are distributed twelve equidistant slots, so as to obtain 60 equal circular sectors, each of the slots on a defined range being offset from the nearest slot located on the adjacent beach (s) at an angle of 6 °.
  • the arrangement of the device makes it possible to read, in the clockwise direction, coincidences separated by 65.45 seconds from each other. To obtain coincidences separated by 60 seconds, it would be necessary to train the motive of the hours with a period of a turn in eleven hours, which would distort the reading of the hours.
  • the indicator of the second is, by definition, one revolution per minute, this speed of rotation can not be changed.
  • 1 / 10th of a corresponds to a rotation of 0.6 ° of the indicator, and that the coincidences of the fractions of sub-periods will be shifted by 0 ° relative to the seconds marks for the first, by 0.6 ° by the second, of 1.2 ° for the third, ..., of 5.4 ° for the ninth and again of 0 ° for the tenth.
  • EP 0 365 443 A2 describes a time display system consisting of a mobile disk and a concentric fixed disk also for reading the hour and the minute on the only mobile hours. The reading of the coincidences is done by juxtaposing the successive marks in the clockwise direction according to the vernier principle. This system imposes a numbering of time marks on the mobile hours in a counterclockwise direction. In addition, the user must be familiar with the handling of a vernier and with its reading, while reading hours is atypical, but especially difficult and inconvenient.
  • the object of the present invention consists in eliminating the drawbacks that the known devices exhibit, more particularly in an adaptation of the principle of the vernier to allow an accurate and easy reading of the fractions of sub-periods in the clockwise or counterclockwise direction, regardless of the direction of rotation of the mobile indicator and requiring, in the user, no knowledge of said vernier principle.
  • the indicator device is incorporated in a mechanical movement analog chronograph which is shown schematically in FIG. Fig. 7a .
  • the visible upper face of this chronograph comprises a circular dial on which is mounted a flange 16 which can be seen, at the Fig. 1 , a marking consisting of a ring 1 centered on the axis of the needles, of constant width all around its periphery.
  • the dark-colored crown 1 has alternating light and dark areas that divide the circular arc from 11 o'clock to 1 o'clock into 10 pairs of alternately dark and dark elements.
  • clear (2) The ratio between the widths of the beaches of each pair varies progressively from one end to the other of the arc. The details of this provision will be described later in relation to the Fig. 7b .
  • the Fig. 2 represents a transparent disk 3 intended to be mounted on the axis of the seconds hand of the chronograph so as to be superimposed on the ring 1 of the flange 16. It carries a radical marking line 4 showing the seconds hand and to its periphery an opaque ring 5 formed of 60 distinct elements separated by transparent spaces 6 plotted radially and having a width of 0.6 degrees of arc is one tenth of the space traveled by the disc 3 in one second.
  • the markings 5 and 6 will be made by screen printing on the underside of the disc 3, while the marking 4 may be made on the top or bottom of the disc.
  • the Fig. 3 shows the 10 successive positions of the disc 3 on the crown 1 of the flange 16 during the second following the engagement of the chronograph from the zero position. Initially an element 6 is visible in front of the first clear area of the elements 2 on the flange, but every tenth of a second a new element 6 is placed in front of a clear range of the flange so that if we stop the needle at During the first second it is possible to read the number of tenths of seconds that have elapsed. Details of the operation of this system will be explained later ( Fig. 7b ). Note here that with the system of Fig. 1, 2, 3 , marking successive tenths of seconds develops in the direction of dextrorsum, as that of seconds.
  • the Fig. 4, 5, 6 represent the same way as Fig. 1, 2, 3 the crown 1 of the flange 16 of a chronograph with a dark circular marking 7 and on the arc of the circle between 11 am and 1 am a series of alternating elements 8 forming clear and dark beaches.
  • a seconds disk 9, transparent has a linear radial marking 10 showing the seconds hand and a ring of opaque elements 11 separated by transparent radial spaces 12 identical to those of the disk 3 of the first variant.
  • the various relative positions of the two components of the reading pair 7, 9, shown in FIG. Fig. 6 show that the display of tenths of seconds develops in the sense senestrorsum even as the second disc rotates in the direction of dextrorsum normal.
  • the Fig. 7a shows the chronograph in schematic section.
  • the movement 13 carries a dial 14 fixed by feet 15 which protrude from the upper face and center the flange 16 having a planar upper surface which forms the crown 1.
  • Needles of hours 17 and minutes 18 are mounted on the barrels of their mobiles respectively. They extend in the space limited by the flange 16 while the disc 3 of the second member extends by its periphery immediately above the upper face of the flange 16 so that the parallax is minimized. .
  • a tube 19 and a washer 20 ensure the attachment of the disc 3 on the shaft of the second mobile.
  • the means for switching on, stopping and returning to zero of the disk 3 are common means and are not represented in FIG. Fig. 7a .
  • the Fig. 7c corresponds to the Fig. 4 .
  • the arc elements 22 of 6 degrees of width are each formed of a dark range and a clear range, the dark ranges from 5.4 degrees to zero from the 11 o'clock position to the 1 o'clock position. It is understood that the displacement of the ring 11, 12 of the disc 9 seen at the Fig. 5 produces the succession of appearances of the Fig. 6 , with the appearance of marks developing counterclockwise every second.
  • the Fig. 8 to 19 are partial views that illustrate a second and third embodiment of the device. This is applied to a chronograph equipped with one or more counters, where one of these counters is expected to count tenths of seconds while the second hand moves normally above the dial.
  • the tenths counter can be placed on any of the four usual positions: 3h, 6h, 9h or 12h.
  • the Fig. 8 , 11 and 14 represent the marking of the reading organ, the Fig. 9 , 12 and 15 that of the display organ and the Fig. 10 , 13 and 16 the superposition of the two bodies, that in the first, second and third variants of the second embodiment.
  • the fixed ring 23 has 10 dark elements 24 each covering a little less than 36 degrees separated by clear elements 25 whose width is the complement to 36 degrees. The exact width of these clear elements can be chosen at will so as to have an easy reading.
  • the transparent disk 26 shown in FIG. Fig. 9 carries a crown 27 formed of 11 arc elements 28 of a little less than 360/11 degrees, of opaque color, separated by narrow spaces 29 of the same width as the spaces 25.
  • the movement of the chronograph will include a mobile rotating at the speed of one turn in 11 seconds, connected to the mobile of seconds of to be engaged, stopped and reset to zero at the same time as the chronograph hand.
  • the superposition of the members 27 and 23 will then give the appearance of the various reading positions represented in FIG. Fig. 10 .
  • the tenths are read clockwise.
  • the fixed crown 30 of the Fig. 11 is exactly the same as that of the Fig. 8 , unlike the meaning of marking (which are inverted with respect to each other). It is divided into 10 dark arc elements 24 separated by narrow, light colored elements. It cooperates as a tracking member with a movable reading member 31 which is a transparent disk mounted on a counter axis rotating in this variant at a speed of one turn in 9 seconds.
  • the disk 31 carries a ring formed of 9 dark arc elements 32 each covering, with the light intermediate element 33 which follows a 40 degree arc.
  • the width of the elements 33 will be equal to that of the elements 25.
  • the superposition of the elements 30 and 31 produces the succession of the positions of the Fig. 13 It can be seen that the tenths of a second marking develops counterclockwise.
  • Fig. 14 to 16 show a third variant of the second embodiment.
  • the fixed registration member is here a ring 34 divided into 9 dark arc elements 35 separated by narrow narrow elements 36
  • the mobile reading member is a transparent disc 37 with a ring of the same diameter and width that the crown 34 formed of 10 dark elements 38 separated by transparent spaces 39 of the same width as the elements 36.
  • the disc 37 will be mounted on a rotating axis of the moving meter at a rate of one turn in 9 seconds and the superposition of positions of both organs of the reading pair will give the appearance of a marker moving clockwise at the speed of one revolution per second, thus marking the count of tenths of a second.
  • the display of tenths of seconds can also be obtained as shown by the Fig. 17 to 19 by means of a circular fixed marker member 40 carrying 10 marks 41 spaced 36 degrees and by means of a transparent reading member 42 rotating above the member 40, bearing a marker ring 43 surrounding the ring 40.
  • the ring 43 is divided into 11 segments by 11 radial marks 44 regularly spaced 360/11 or about 32.7 degrees.
  • the mobile disc occur 10 successive coincidences between a mark 44 of the disc 42 and a mark 41 of the crown 40, which allows to locate the tenths of seconds elapsed.
  • an object of the invention is to allow an accurate reading; this accuracy is equivalent to at least one time interval corresponding to a fraction N of the sub-period elapsed since the last coincidence between the position of the marker and a mark of the registration graduation. That being so, taking as a basis of explanation the first embodiment of execution, if it is desired that the reading accuracy be at least equal to the value of said fraction.
  • the transparent spaces drawn radially on the mobile disk must extend over a defined angular distance: the latter must indeed be at most equal, on the one hand, at the angular distance covered by the mobile disc in 1 / Nth of sub-period and, on the other hand, in the step of progression (1 / N) of the light or dark areas on the disc of the fixed member having a division of N sub-periods.
  • N 10
  • the device makes it possible to perform a reading at least 1/10 of a second.
  • the same reasoning is applicable by analogy as regards the second and third forms of execution.
  • an indicator device as described above can be integrated into a usual watch with or without a second hand for the sole purpose of creating a progressive decorative effect.
