Definitions
- the present invention relates to a chronograph clutch mechanism by means of a control lever designed on the one hand to avoid a blockage when moves from a stop position or a chronograph position to zero at a position on the other hand to precisely adjust the force exerted by the end of the lever by resorbing somehow the inevitable manufacturing tolerances at level of moving parts constituting said clutch control.
- FIGS. 1 and 2 schematically represent in plan and in cuts a clutch control in the running chronograph position.
- the clutch is actuated by a circular cam 1 having outside a drive toothing 3 on which acts a lever of actuation actuated by a pusher (not shown), said cam 1 being maintained in a determined position by means of a jumper 5.
- the cam 1 comprises inside a second control gear 2 whose teeth separating two hollows successive 4 teeth are truncated and have a flat surface 6.
- the teeth 3 has twice as many teeth as the internal toothing 2, so that the training of a step by actuation of a push button leads successively a hollow 4 and a flat 6 opposite a reference position determined.
- the clutch control 10 is constituted by a lever having basically three concurrent arms.
- a first arm 11 has its end pivoted in 12 in the plate 7 or in a plate of mechanism 8.
- a second arm 13 has at its end a tooth 14a held in abutment on a flat part 6 of the internal toothing of control 2 by a return spring 9 in abutment on a part 14
- a third flexible arm 15 has at its end a fork 16, preceded by a V-fold 18 having a plane 18a inclined against an edge 8a of 8.
- the object of the invention is therefore to remedy the two major drawbacks of the above-mentioned prior art by providing a chronograph watch having a clutch that is both reliable and easy to handle, and easily be adjusted at the end of the set-up to take into account the cumulative effect of manufacturing tolerances.
- the invention relates to a clutch mechanism of chronograph by means of a fork which controls the axial displacement of a clutch wheel to bring it to friction with an intermediate wheel second, or on the contrary to remove it from the force of a return spring.
- This fork is operated by a control lever which is reciprocated, but according to a first feature of the invention said fork is independent of the control lever contrary to what was exposed previously for the prior art.
- This fork is indeed formed in the big arm of an L-shaped curved element, hereinafter referred to as "clutch spring", articulated at the junction of both arms on the mechanism board or on a board of adjustment, the small arm of said clutch spring being biased at its base by the control lever.
- the clutch spring is articulated in a hinge of a control board formed by a plate of hinge, spacer and cover, assembled by two studs whose ends are guided in translation by oblong openings practiced in the mechanism board and in the chronograph bridge.
- the plate forming a spacer has an extension in which is formed a oblong opening having its major axis perpendicular to the alignment of the tenons, which allows by means of an eccentric to change the distance between the end of the small arm of the clutch spring and the end of the control lever, and thereby to compensate by means of a final adjustment the manufacturing tolerances of the different parts of the clutch.
- control lever comprises three concurrent branches, the first having its end rotated in a board of mechanism, the second having its end held by a return spring in bearing against the internal toothing of an annular cam comprising a succession of hollow and flats, and the end of the third to operate the small clutch spring arm.
- FIG. 3 shows in top view only the elements components of the clutch mechanism, shown even more simplified but at more large scale in Figure 4, and in section in Figure 5.
- the clutch is shown in the disengaged position.
- clutch position change is controlled by an annular cam 1 rotated by a finger 26 actuated by a pusher (not shown) and acting on an external toothing 3, while being held in a position determined by a jumper 5.
- the cam 1 also has an internal toothing 2 formed of a succession of troughs 4 and flats 6.
- the ratio of steps between the internal toothing 2 and the external toothing 3 is 1/2 (for example 40 teeth to inside and 80 outside teeth), so that step advance of the cam 1 alternatively brings a recess 4 and a flat 6 opposite a position of reference.
- the clutch as such conventionally comprises a wheel intermediate second 19, engaged with the drive wheel 29 and the wheel of small second 25 and a clutch wheel 17, engaged with the chronograph wheel 27 and having at its upper part a flange 17a against which a spring of annular blade return 21 to hold the two mobiles 17, 19 in position engaged (as shown in Figure 7) when no solicitation exists exterior.
- the mechanism for acting on the clutch to move it into the disengaged position by exerting pressure under the collar 17a, comprises three essential elements, namely, a control lever 10, a 20 clutch spring L and an adjustment board 30.
- the control lever 10 shown in halftone in FIG. show the outline, has three concurrent branches 11, 13 and 15.
- the branch 11 is pivoted at 12 in the plate 7.
- the branch 13 has at one end a fold 14 Z terminated by a tooth 14a held against the internal toothing 2 of the cam 1 by a return spring 9 bearing against the vertical portion of the fold 14.
- This Z-fold of the end 14 is imposed only by the location of the mobile and other parts of the chronograph movement taken as an example, but could equally be replaced by any other type of stop, such as a simple rib.
- Branch 15 has its end perpendicular to a radial direction of the axis of rotation of the mobiles 17, 19 of the clutch, but not has no fork. It will be observed that the particular form of each lever arm 10 depends solely on the chosen location or imposed for the other mobiles constituting the chronograph movement, and that any other form within the reach of the person skilled in the art would still be within the scope of the present invention.
- the clutch spring 20 comprises a large arm 22 in which is formed the fork and a small arm 24 whose end is urged by the end of the branch 15 of the control lever 10.
- the clutch spring 20 comprises of other of the junction line of the two arms 22, 24 two small pivots 23a, 23b (visible in FIG. 9) mounted in a hinge of an adjustment board 30 of which the construction will be described in more detail below.
- this clutch spring 20 could be fixed directly on the mechanism board 8, or on a part secured thereto.
- the adjusting board 30 is formed by the stack of two elements 31, 35 arranged on either side of a third element forming a spacer 33.
- the element 31 has near the edges of one of its ends two small extensions 31 a, 31 b extending beyond the edge of the spacer 33, said extensions 31a, 31b having ends turned at right angles.
- the lid member is provided with one extended ends of two legs 35a, 35b located between the parts curved extensions 31a, 31b, said legs extending slightly beyond said extensions 31a, 31b.
- These three elements 31, 33, 35 are assembled by two tenons 32a, 32b driven through holes provided in said elements, the heads said tenons 32a, 32b protruding on either side of the stack to constitute the guide means 32.
- the tenons 32a, 32b are guided by openings oblong 36a, 36b made in the mechanism board 8 and in the bridge of chronograph 28, which limits the fretting of the adjustment board 30.
- the spacer 33 is provided with an extension 37 having an oblong opening 37a whose large axis is perpendicular to the alignment of tenons 32a, 32b.
- the oblong opening 37a is intended to receive an eccentric 38 which will allow to move the adjustment plate 30, and thereby to adjust the pressure exerted by the end of the branch 15 of the control lever 10 on the end of the small arm 24 of the clutch spring 20.
- extension 37 also has an orientation perpendicular to the alignment of 32a, 32b, but it is obvious that said extension could have a whole other orientation in so far as the long axis of the oblong opening remains perpendicular to the alignment of the guide pins.
- This construction has two main advantages. By acting example on the thicknesses, it makes it possible to have both a rigid control and not deformable and a clutch spring 20 having a certain flexibility to avoid too much friction.
- the board adjustment 30 makes it possible to compensate for the inevitable manufacturing tolerances in particular at the level of the clutch spring 20, the annular leaf spring 21 and cam 1. As we know, being able to be a little less demanding at the level of tolerances it is possible to manufacture the same product with a slightly lower cost while having, thanks to the invention a high quality.
