Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a watch having a box which contains an electronic clockwork movement and an electric battery comprising at least one battery or at least one accumulator, the box having a circular lower opening which makes it possible to introduce and extract the battery and which is sealingly closed by a removable cover provided with bayonet fixing means, the cover having a plate, which covers a housing for the battery and forms at least a portion of the bottom of the box, and a substantially cylindrical annular portion which extends perpendicularly to said plate and fits into said opening, said annular portion carrying at least two locks forming part of the bayonet fixing means.
  • the removable cover that closes the hatch giving access to the battery can either constitute the bottom of the watch case, or close the opening in a bottom fixed itself to the middle of the box or made of a single piece with this build.
  • electrical battery a source of electrical energy that may include one or more single-use batteries, or one or more rechargeable batteries.
  • the invention applies particularly, but not exclusively, to electronic watches comprising one or more additional devices that consume electrical energy, such as, for example, a communication device by radio, optical or acoustic transmission, a measuring device using a pressure sensor or the like, a navigation device, an electronic camera, an electronic organizer, etc.
  • electrical energy such as, for example, a communication device by radio, optical or acoustic transmission, a measuring device using a pressure sensor or the like, a navigation device, an electronic camera, an electronic organizer, etc.
  • the energy consumption of these additional devices requires the inclusion in the watch of a rather large electric battery, comprising either several batteries or accumulators, or a battery or a large accumulator.
  • the necessary opening in the bottom of the box to give access to this battery can then become very large and extend over most or all of the bottom surface.
  • the removable cover closing this opening is fixed by a bayonet system, the size of the elements of this system and the associated sealing members can cause problems.
  • the document US 2002/0064098 discloses a removable cover providing access to a battery which is sealingly attached by means of a hook ring.
  • the document CH 211142 discloses several modes of embodiment of a two bayonet type fixing device forming a sealed box.
  • the patent application EP 272,515 describes a wristwatch of the kind indicated in the preamble above and having at the rear a large cover to provide access to the electric battery.
  • the circular opening of the bottom of the box has a diameter substantially larger than the diameter of the circle circumscribing the assembly formed by the watch movement and the battery.
  • the bayonet fixing means are arranged outside this circle, at a level above the lower face of the movement.
  • the cylindrical annular portion of the lid serves to stiffen the lid and to bring to its top the latches of the bayonet fixing device, which are directed outwardly so as to be able to hold on to the inside edges of the middle part of the box L sealing around the opening is provided in a conventional manner, by means of an O-ring disposed in a groove of the lower face of the middle part and compressed axially by the cover.
  • the subject of the present invention is a watch arranged in such a way as to avoid to a large extent the aforementioned drawbacks, in particular so as to be able to limit the size of the cover with respect to the circumscribed circle of the battery when it is particularly bulky, for example when it includes several batteries or accumulators.
  • a watch of the kind indicated in the preamble wherein said lid locks extend inwardly of the substantially cylindrical annular portion of the cover and cling to the shoulders of at least one fixed element mounted in the box, said shoulders being inside said annular portion when the lid is attached to the box.
  • the arrangement of the locks towards the inside of the annular portion of the cover advantageously makes it possible to arrange the seal around this annular part, so that the lining is pressed radially against a circular surface forming the periphery of said opening, in particular a substantially cylindrical surface.
  • the opening may further have a flared inlet to provide radial compression of the seal during the introduction of the lid.
  • This arrangement of the seal takes up very little space radially and thus makes it possible to significantly reduce the width of the cover with respect to the prior art mentioned above. Thanks to the radial compression of the seal, the seal is guaranteed even if the lid has not been fully turned when it is put in place, and furthermore the compression of the seal hardly induces extra efforts on locks.
  • engagement means are disposed on a peripheral portion of the lid so as to allow a user to manually operate the lid without a specific tool.
  • the figure 1 represents in perspective a wristwatch 1 comprising a box 2 of non-circular shape, closed above it by a lens 6 disposed above a dial for an analog display of the hour by means of needles 4 and 5 driven by a electronic watch movement.
  • the dial can also have a window for a digital or alphanumeric display 7.
  • One or more control members 8 are arranged on the box.
  • the wristwatch can be placed around the wrist by means of two strands of bracelet 10 and 11 attached to the middle of the box 2 and joined by a clasp of known type.
  • the watch case 2 in particular the underside of the watch case 2.
  • it is made of a one-piece construction comprising a middle part 13 and a bottom 14, in which is formed a circular opening 15 serving as a trap door. access to the electric battery (not shown in this figure).
  • the peripheral wall of the opening 15 has a substantially cylindrical circular surface 16.
  • the bottom-middle of the watch case 2 is equipped with fastening members 17 and 18 for attaching it to the strands 10 and 11 of the bracelet.
  • the opening 15 is sealingly closed by a removable circular cover 20 which, in the view of the figure 2 , has been removed to show a battery holder 22 fixedly mounted inside the box 2.
  • the cover 20, when it is placed in the opening 15, is fixed to the support 22 by a device fixing the bayonet type, which will be described in detail later.
  • the support 22 comprises two circular housings 23 and 24 for two batteries forming together the electric battery for supplying the circuits contained in the watch.
  • the box and the lid are preferably metallic, but other materials are conceivable.
  • the watch 6 of the ice is carried by a two-piece bezel 26 and 27, mounted on the top of the middle part 13 with a seal 28.
  • an electronic clockwork 30 comprising in particular a quartz resonator 31 and an electric motor 32 which actuates the needles 4 and 5.
  • These elements are mounted on a printed circuit board 33 which is fixed in the box by conventional means, including a plastic plate 34 which supports the dial 29.
  • This additional device may be of one of the types mentioned above and comprise, for example, one or more integrated circuits 38 and memories 39. It is supplied with electrical energy, just like the components mounted on the card 33, by the electric battery formed by the two batteries 41 and 42 housed in the support 22 and connected in series using blades. embedded in this support, which is made of synthetic insulating material. In order to simplify the drawing, the electrical connections between the batteries 41 and 42, the support 22, the card 37 and the card 33 are not represented. Of course, it would also be possible to provide separate power supplies, one of the batteries supplying the components mounted on the card 33 and the other the components mounted on the card 37.
  • the removable cover 20 has a circular plate 44 which covers the entire opening 15 of the bottom of the box and which has a peripheral portion 45 thicker than its central portion. This peripheral portion forms a flange which is applied against the flat lower face 46 of the bottom 14 of the box, when the lid 20 is in the closed position.
  • Two notches 47 are formed in the outer face of the peripheral portion 45 to allow a user to manually rotate the cover by means of his or her nails or a common object such as a wrench or a buckle of the clasp of the wristband of the watch .
  • a knurling could be provided as a manual gripping means on the peripheral portion of the lid.
  • an electro-acoustic transducer 48 preferably composed of piezoelectric elements, is glued to the central part of the plate 44 in order to make it vibrate, to transmit an acoustic and / or tactile signal. to the bearer of the watch.
  • a bead 49 is provided around the transducer 48 to improve the vibratory regime of the plate 44.
  • the cover 22 has a substantially cylindrical annular portion 50 whose outer face has a groove 51 for receiving an annular seal 52 formed in this case by an elastomeric O-ring. To reduce friction, this seal can be made of a self-lubricating material.
  • the groove 51 is closed upwards by a flat metal washer 54 which is welded at points 53 to the top of the annular cover portion 50.
  • the outer diameter of this washer is substantially equal to that of the cylindrical outer face 55 of the annular portion 50.
  • the washer 54 has two radially inwardly projecting portions which are diametrically opposed and form two latches 56 of the fastener device. bayonet lid. In this case, the two latches 56 are flat and located in the same plane as the rest of the washer 54, but in other embodiments they could be inclined or folded in Z, as needed. On the other hand, the number of locks 56 could obviously be greater than two.
  • the figure 6 shows the battery holder 22 seen from below.
  • This is a molded piece made of rigid and insulating synthetic material, which is held in position inside the watch case by pressing against the bottom 14 and using feet 60 and 61. particular in the figure 3 that each foot 61 fits into a hole one-eyed 62 from the bottom of the box. We also see that this foot is secured to a projecting portion 63 of the support, which holds by pinch one of the contact blades 64 which provide the connection between the battery and the electrical circuits of the watch.
  • Other blades of this kind are housed in appropriate recesses of the support 22, in particular those bearing the references 65 to 67 in the figure 6 .
  • the recess 67 contains one or more blades connecting the transducer 48 to its control circuit.
  • the support 22 also serves to retain the removable cover 20 in place and it comprises for this purpose the fixed elements of the bayonet fixing device.
  • These elements comprise two shoulders 70 and 71 located on the upper face of two flanges 72 and 73 of the support 22 which are directed outwards.
  • the shoulders 70 and 71 have in plan a short arcuate shape and they may be slightly inclined longitudinally to pull the cover towards the inside of the box. Above these shoulders are respective notches 74 and 75 in which the latches 56 of the lid 20 can pass.
  • the fixed elements 72 to 75 of the bayonet fixing device, as well as the free spaces 76 and 77 allowing the passage of the locks 56 in the axial direction when the lid 20 is inserted into the box, are all located at places which are not occupied by the battery formed by the batteries taking place in dwellings 23 and 24.
  • FIG 2 it is observed that these elements are still within a circle 80 circumscribed to the battery when it is seen in plan.
  • each battery extends to a short distance of the annular portion 50 of the lid.
  • the diameter of the opening 15 being only a little larger than that of the circumscribed circle 80, to a sufficient extent to allow the thickness of the with cylindrical annular portion 50 of the lid. Since, furthermore, the outer edge of the lid does not need to protrude much beyond the periphery of the opening 15, the latter can be as large as possible, taking into account the dimensions of the bottom 14 of the box, and thus give access to a large battery.
  • the lid 20 ensures excellent sealing of the bottom of the box in all circumstances.
  • the flared inlet 81 thereof gradually crushes the elastomer seal 52, which is then compressed radially permanently between the annular portion 50 of the cover and the fixed cylindrical surface 16 even before the lid is fully inserted into the box.
  • the cover is then rotated to engage the latches 56 on the shoulders 70 and 71, which will pull the lid until its edge bears against the lower face 46 of the bottom, the sealing conditions do not do not change and the compression of the seal 52 does not induce any effort on the locks 56 or on the support 22. This is obviously the same during the opening operation of the lid.
  • the figure 7 schematically represents an embodiment of a watch in which the removable cover 20 is entirely the bottom of the watch case, its peripheral portion 45 covering the lower face 82 of the middle part 13 and being pressed against it under the effect of the bayonet fixing device of the lid.
  • the inner locks 56 of the cover cling to any fixed support 83 mounted inside the box, each resting on a shoulder 71 of a flange 73 of the support as in the previous example.
  • the support 83 is held in abutment against a shoulder 84 of the caseband, for example by conventional flat flanges 85 each of which is fixed on a lower surface of the support by a screw 86 and engaged in a notch 87 of the middle part 13.
  • the Flanges 85 are preferably located at a location other than the latching members 71 and 73 of the bayonet fastener.
  • the support 83 is not necessarily a battery holder, but could be formed for example by a turntable of a watch movement or by a container of molded synthetic material which contains such a movement. It could also constitute a casing ring supporting the movement in the box 2.
  • the elements 50, 52 and 54 of the bottom cover 20 are similar to those of the example of the Figures 2 to 6 but obviously have a larger diameter.
  • a knurling 88 of the underside of the peripheral portion 45 to serve as manual gripping means allowing the user to open and close the lid without any tools.
