- 1 is a crown, which is screwed onto a crown or Adjustment shaft bushing (also tube), which in Figure 1 with the interrupted Lines 2 is indicated, can be sealed by screwing.
- the crown 1 consists essentially of the two-part crown body 3 and Actuating shaft 4, which cooperates with the clockwork in the usual way. Furthermore, a compression spring 5 is provided which between the control shaft 4 and the Crown body 3 acts and prestresses it in the longitudinal direction L of the actuating shaft 4, and in a working state in which the crown body 3 is in operative engagement with the control shaft 4 is.
- Figure 1 shows the crown 1 in its tube 2 on the watch case 26 (FIG. 6), in which the crown body 3 is out of engagement with the actuating shaft 4 against the action of the compression spring 5. With L the longitudinal axis of the crown is designated in FIG. 1, which is also the axis of the crown Crown body 3 and the control shaft 4 is.
- the crown body 3 is made in two parts, consisting of the crown body part 3 'and the crown body part 3 ".
- the part 3' shown in the figures 2 and 3 is shown again in detail, is essentially sleeve-like with a Knurling 6 formed on a circular cylindrical peripheral or handle surface and has a first circular-cylindrical, open to an end face of part 3 ' Recess 7 with bottom surface 7 'and an open to the other end, also circular cylindrical recess 8 with bottom surface 8 '.
- the recess 8 has a diameter smaller than the diameter of the recess 7 and is with provided with an internal thread 9, with which the crown body 3 on an external thread the tube 2 can be screwed on.
- opening 10 provided with a deviating from the circular shape Cross-section is formed, in the embodiment shown with a Hexagonal cross-section, the cross-sectional dimensions of the opening 10 being smaller are as the cross-sectional dimension or the diameter of the recess 8.
- Am Transition from the recess 8 to the opening 10 is the recess 8 with a Provide undercut 11 in which, when the crown 3 is fitted, an annular seal 12 is housed, which is supported against the bottom surface and at the watch case screwed crown 1 rests against flange 2.
- the insert or part 3 is essentially hood-shaped, namely with a circular cylindrical peripheral surface 13 and a convexly curved End face 14. Furthermore, in part 3 "is a circular cylindrical and to which End face 14 opposite end face 15 is formed with open recess 16, whose axis is 3 aligned with the longitudinal axis L when the crown is fitted.
- the Recess 16 forms at its closed end adjacent to the end face 14 a seat 16 'for one end of the compression spring 5. As shown in Figure 1, the Recess 16 a diameter that is larger than the largest Cross-sectional dimension of the opening 10.
- the part 3 " is in the recess 7 of part 3 'with the assembled crown 1 open side of the recess 16 used in advance and there in a suitable manner attached, for example by a press fit. Furthermore, an additional Ring seal 17 the transition between the two parts 3 'and 3 "sealed.
- the control shaft 4 has on its protruding from the crown body 3 and with the Clockwork connected section 4 'a circular cylindrical cross section. With In this section 4 ', the adjusting shaft extends through the recess 8 and at the state of the crown 1 shown in Figure 1, in the (state) none drive connection between the crown body 3 and the control shaft 4th exists, also through the opening 10.
- the section 4 ' is adjoined by the adjusting shaft 4 with a cross section enlarged section 4 "provided, the outer cross section of the cross-sectional shape is adapted to the opening 10, i.e. also in the illustrated embodiment forms a hexagonal cross-section, so that when the Crown body 3 relative to the actuating shaft 4, the section 4 ′′ engages with the opening 10 comes and thereby a drive connection between the crown body 3 and the control shaft 4 is made.
- a flange-like annular section follows 4 "', whose outer diameter is equal to the diameter of the recess 16 and which forms the end of the actuating shaft 4 facing the end face 14.
- the control shaft 4 also has a bore 18 which is coaxial with the longitudinal axis L arranged and to the section 4 "'having the end of this actuating shaft is open.
- the bore 18 serves to partially accommodate the compression spring 5 and forms a second support surface for this spring at its closed end.
- the opening 10 and the section 4 " are on Transition to section 4 'in each case at 19 and 20 conical or frustoconical beveled so that interference-free engagement of the section 4 "or of this Section formed hexagon in the opening 10 or in the opening of this formed hexagon is guaranteed.
- At least the control shaft 4 and the part 3 'of the crown body 3 are special hard steel, for example made of hardenable stainless steel or steel of class 1.4435 made with additional carbon diffusion coating.
- FIG. 1 also shows, there is no insert or part 3 " Restriction on the diameter of the opening 10 or the section 4 ".
- the assembly of the crown 1 according to the invention is carried out in such a way that the Control shaft 4 with the free end of its section 4 'through the recess 7 in the Opening 10 is inserted.
- the spring 5 is then mounted in the opening 18 and then the insert or part 3 "inserted into the opening 7 such that the The control shaft 4 with its section 4 ′′ ′′ is axially displaceable in the recess 16 is included.
- the insert or part 3 is on his entire circumference 13 in the recess 7, so that only the curved end face 14 protrudes beyond the end of part 3 'facing away from tube 2.
- FIG. 6 shows a representation similar to FIG. 1 as a further embodiment a crown 1a, at the free end of which corresponds to the section 4 ' Section 4a 'of the actuating shaft 4a there is additionally provided a square 22 which cooperates with a corresponding coupling piece of the clockwork.
- the Control shaft 4a is already prepared with this square.
- This version is suitable especially with a crown, in which the implementation or the tube 2 for the Control shaft 4a is provided by screwing in the watch case and thus a exact positioning of the control shaft 4a with screwed and not screwed Crown is predetermined, in particular also by the possibility of an axial adjustment of tube 2 on the watch case.
- the design of FIG. 6 has the additional advantage that a length adjustment of the control shaft 4a is no longer required, specifically in Contrary to the previous state of the art.
- FIGS. 7 and 8 show in front view the one for carrying out the adjusting shaft serving tube 2 and a tool 23 for mounting the tube.
- the latter owns in the area of its end protruding from the watch case an annular collar 2 'on which four bores 24 are provided offset about the longitudinal axis L.
- the tool 23 shown in FIG. 8 is the one with an external thread provided tube 2 in the corresponding, provided with an internal thread Screw-down hole in the watch case.
