Definitions

  • the invention relates to a timepiece provided with a display device of the rank of the week in the current year.
  • the invention relates more particularly to a timepiece comprising a week mechanism which controls a display member of the week rank in the year and which is controlled mechanically by a watch movement.
  • a timepiece of this type is described, for example, in the document EP 0 366 610 .
  • This document describes and represents a watch with a needle that indicates the rank of the week in the current year.
  • the needle is designed to operate on a cycle of 52 weeks so that, when the current year comprises 53 weeks, it is necessary to intervene manually on the training means of the needle, at the end of the year, to correct the indication that shifts by one week.
  • the needle is intended to operate on a 53 week cycle so that when the current year has 52 weeks, it is necessary to perform a manual correction similar to that mentioned above.
  • the invention aims to remedy these drawbacks.
  • the invention proposes a timepiece comprising a week mechanism which controls a display member of the rank of the week in the year and which is mechanically controlled by a watch movement, characterized in that it comprises a selection device of the total number of weeks in a year, which device controls the week mechanism so that the rank display member of the week selectively performs either a fifty-two week cycle or a cycle of fifty-three weeks.
  • timepiece 10 which comprises display means 12 of the rank R of the week in the current year and which is produced in accordance with the teachings of the invention.
  • the timepiece 10 is constituted here by a watch comprising a mechanical watch movement 14 and a dial 16 of analog display.
  • the display means 12 of the row R of the week are constituted by fifty-three graduations 18, which are distributed angularly around the circular periphery of the peripheral edge of the dial 16, and by a week hand 20, whose axis of rotation is located in the center of the dial 16.
  • the watch movement 14 includes a week mechanism 22 which controls the movements of the week hand 20 about its axis.
  • the timepiece 10 is provided with a selection device 76 of the total number of weeks N in a year.
  • This selection device 76 is provided to control the week mechanism 22 so that the week hand 20 selectively performs either a fifty-two week cycle or a fifty-three week cycle.
  • the selection device 76 comprises an external control means 78 such as a push button, which makes it possible to manually select the total number of weeks N in the current year, and a means of auxiliary display 80 which displays the number N selected.
  • an external control means 78 such as a push button, which makes it possible to manually select the total number of weeks N in the current year, and a means of auxiliary display 80 which displays the number N selected.
  • the auxiliary display means 80 here comprises a selection needle 82 which pivots between two angular positions respectively indicating the number "53" and the number "52".
  • the watch movement 14 includes a display mechanism 24 of the day of the week.
  • This display mechanism 24 includes a seven-toothed 26-day star which carries an indicator disc 28 of days and which is rotated in the clockwise direction by the watch movement 14 at the rate of one tooth per day.
  • the star of days 26 is positioned by a jumper 30. She also wears a training finger of weeks 32.
  • the 32 weeks' finger trainer activates the week 22 mechanism so that it displays the rank R of the current week.
  • the drive of the week mechanism 22 by the finger 32 is via a drive pinion 34 and a drive gear 36 held in position by a jumper 38.
  • the drive gear 36 is rotatably connected to an intermediate wheel 40.
  • the intermediate wheel 40 drives a week management wheel 42 on which is fixed a cam 44.
  • This cam 44 is provided to control the position of a jumper of week 46.
  • the cam 44 has a control surface 45 in the form of a spiral, that is to say in the form of disc of progressively increasing radius, here in the clockwise direction.
  • the control surface 45 cooperates with a roller 48 fixed on the jumper of week 46.
  • the course of the jumper of week 46 is regulated and limited by an eccentric 50.
  • the week mechanism 22 is provided with a differential gear 52 which is composed of an output mobile 54, comprising an output wheel 56 and an output gear 58, an input ring gear 60 with external teeth, two satellites 62, 64, and a bearing ring 66 with internal teeth.
  • the satellites 62, 64 are carried by the input ring 60 and they mesh, on the one hand, with the internal toothing of the bearing ring 66 and, on the other hand, with the output pinion 58.
  • the intermediate wheel 40 meshes with the output wheel 56, which causes the rotation of the input ring 60 via the satellites 62, 64, the support ring 66 being immobilized.
  • the entry ring 60 drives a week wheel 68 one step per week.
  • the week wheel 68 is positioned by a jumper 70 and carries the week hand 20.
  • the entry crown 60 also drives an end-of-year jump management wheel 72 which carries a pin 74 and which is coaxial with the weeks management wheel 42.
  • the assembly formed by the weeks management wheel 42, the cam 44, the week long jumper 46 and the end-of-year jump management wheel 72 constitutes a year-end jump mechanism 75.
  • the selection device 76 comprises a selection rake 84 which meshes with an external toothed portion 86 of the bearing ring 66 of the differential gear 52.
  • the selection rake 84 is pivotally mounted between two indexed angular positions respectively corresponding to the two possible values of the total number of weeks N.
  • the pivoting of the selection rake 84 is controlled by the external control means 78 via a column wheel 88 positioned in a conventional manner by this control means 78.
  • the selection rake 84 meshes with a selection gear 90 which carries the selection needle 82.
  • Each indexed angular position of the selection rake 84 corresponds to an indexed angular position of the selection needle 82 which then displays the total number of weeks N selected.
  • the selection pinion 90 is provided with a spiral spring 92 which makes it possible to compensate the gear sets for preventing parasitic movements of the selection needle 82.
  • the display of the rank R of the week is as follows.
  • the training finger of the weeks 32 causes the driver 36 to be returned via the drive pinion 34.
  • the rotation of the coach referral 36 in the clockwise direction causes the rotation of the output wheel 56 via the intermediate wheel 40.
  • the rotation of the output wheel 56 in the counterclockwise direction causes the rotation of the input ring 60 in the counter-clockwise direction, via the satellites 62, 64, the bearing ring 66 being immobilized in an angular position determined by the angular position of the selection rake 84.
  • Rotation of the input ring 60 then causes rotation of the week wheel 68 clockwise by one step, causing the week hand 20 to pivot one step.
  • the week hand 20 then indicates the rank R of the new week.
  • gear ratio between the input ring 60 and the week wheel 68, and between the input ring 60 and the end-of-year jump management wheel 72 is equal to one.
  • the rotation of the intermediate wheel 40 drives the weeks management wheel 42 in the counter-clockwise direction, which causes an equivalent pivoting of the cam 44 counter-clockwise.
  • the roller 48 cooperates with the control surface 45 to cause the jumper of week 46 to swing outwards.
  • the roller 48 of the week-long jumper 46 arrives at the end of the cam 44, where the control surface 45 forms a notch, which causes the jumper of week 46 to tilt inwards.
  • the angular position of the pin 74, relative to the angular position of the cam 44, is such that the jumper of week 46 does not push the pin 74 when it toggles so he does not impose any extra movement on him. Indeed, at the same time as the jumper of week 46 toggles inwards, the pin 74 pivots clockwise with the end-of-year jumping wheel 72, moving away from a so-called actuation end 94 of the week long jumper 46.
  • the week-long jumper 46 and the pin 74 are in an initial configuration of the beginning of the year, illustrated by the figure 2 wherein the actuating end 94 is substantially adjacent to the pin 74 and the roller 48 is substantially adjacent to the control surface 45 of the cam 44.
  • control means 78 is actuated which causes a pivoting of the selection rake 84, here in the counterclockwise direction.
  • the selection rake 84 drives the bearing ring 66 in the clockwise direction which causes, via the satellites 62, 64, a pivoting of the output pinion 58 in the counterclockwise direction, the input ring 60 being held fixed by the week wheel 68 which is locked in rotation by its jumper 70.
  • the pivoting of the output gear 58 causes the intermediate wheel 40 to pivot in a clockwise direction via the output wheel 56.
  • the pivoting of the intermediate wheel 40 drives the week management wheel 42 in the counter-clockwise direction, which shifts the cam 44 one-fifty-third of a turn counter-clockwise.
  • the wheel 46 of the jumper of week 46 will then arrive at the top of the cam 44 a week earlier, so at the end of the fifty-second week.
  • the jumper of week 46 switches inwards, in the same manner as described above.
  • the pin 74 is vis-à-vis the actuating surface 94 of the jumper of week 46.
  • the jumper of week 46 then pushes the pin 74 in the direction time, which causes the input ring 60 in the counterclockwise direction, via the end of year jump management wheel 72.
  • the input ring 60 then drives the wheel of week 68 clockwise, until the week 20 needle reaches the graduation of the first week.
  • the step caused by the jumper of week 46 is added to the weekly step produced by the pivoting of the star of days 26. Therefore, at the end of the fifty-second week, the week hand 20 pivots two not, from the graduation "52" to the graduation "01".
  • the mechanism of week 22 is again in an initial configuration of the beginning of the year, similar to that of the figure 2 , but the cam 44 always has a step in advance since the total number of weeks N selected is still fifty-two.
  • the end-of-year leap is performed in the manner described above, with the week hand 20 passing in two steps of the graduation "52" at the graduation "01".
