Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for simultaneous resetting of two time counters, including chronograph, whose pivot axes are integral with respective resetting cams in the form of cores, comprising a reset lever comprising two hammers, means for selectively exerting on this lever a torque for applying the two hammers against the reset cams and means of articulation of these hammers relative to the reset lever as described in JP2004264036 .
  • a heart-shaped reset cam is associated with the axis of the counter and a hammer whose orientation of the striking face bears against symmetrical shoulders of the heart, serves to define the angular position corresponding to the zero of the counter.
  • this cam is moved away from its angular position corresponding to the counter zero, and the hammer strikes laterally against it, the force of the hammer is transformed into a torque that rotates the cam until the striking face of the hammer press on the two shoulders of the heart-shaped cam and immobilize it.
  • one of the two hammers be adjustable or resilient to absorb tolerances. Which says adjustment of a moving part says means to fix its position Given the dimensions of the pieces, when it is about a wrist chronograph, there is a good chance that the adjustment carried out goes wrong when one wants to fix the set position. If it is a moving part connected by friction, the setting may be out of adjustment.
  • a chronograph mechanism has a large number of parts and for reasons of space, it is not always possible to have this pivot axis of the hammers on the carrier lever and the axis of rotation of the lever in the above positions.
  • the object of the present invention is to overcome, at least in part, the disadvantages of the aforementioned solutions.
  • this invention relates to a device for simultaneous resetting of two time counters according to claim 1.
  • the chronograph mechanism illustrated in part is that of a conventional mechanism making use of a central command called column wheel 1. It is specified however that the invention relates essentially to a new design of the reset lever to hammers 2 and that such a lever could quite well be used with the same advantages in any mechanism in which two time counters (minutes and seconds for example) must be reset simultaneously using a same reset lever.
  • the column wheel 1 is secured to a ratchet gear engaged with a positioning pawl 3 and with a drive pawl 4a hinged to the end of a control lever 4, itself articulated about an axis 4b.
  • This rocker is used to advance the column wheel 1 step by step, including moving the bodies of the reset mechanism of the position illustrated by the figure 1 to that illustrated by the figure 2 and vice versa.
  • the part of this mechanism to which the present invention relates relates to the reset lever with two hammers 2.
  • This is illustrated separately by the figure 3 with a spring 5 which applies a force F to a peg 2a integral with the reset lever 2, developing a torque about the pivot axis 2b of the reset lever 2.
  • This reset lever 2 is shaped to fit a finger 2c engaged with the columns 1b of the column wheel 1, under the pressure of the spring 5.
  • every other step of the toothing of the column wheel 1 the finger 2c is between two columns 1b and every other step it presses a column 1b, which respectively controls the reset position illustrated by the figures 1 and 3 and the running position of the counters, as will be explained below.
  • the two hammer reset lever 2 further comprises two pins 2d, 2e which are respectively engaged in two openings 6a, 6b of a piece 6 with two hammers 6c, 6d an elongate opening 6a and an opening 6b sized to allow the elongate opening 6a, so to the piece 6, to rotate a limited angle around the pin 2d.
  • the hammers 6c, 6d are engaged with two heart-shaped cams 7, 8 respectively which are each integral with the pivot axis 7a, respectively 8a of the movable indicator member (not shown) of one of the two counters for example, minutes and seconds.
  • the figure 3 shows the effect obtained thanks to the existence of the elongate opening 6a forming a limited slider, according to the solution proposed by the present invention. It can be seen that this slide is oriented so that, during the reset, the direction of perpendicular lowered from the axis of the pin 2d on this slide 6a and which corresponds to the direction of the force F1 transmitted from the lever of resetting 2 to the double hammer part 6, cuts the line joining the axes of the reset cams 7a, 8a at a point capable of improving the distribution of the forces F2, F3 exerted on the cams 7, 8 respectively. report to the figure 4 it can be seen that the slide 6a makes it possible to reduce this force F1 more towards the cam 8.
  • this has the effect of practically doubling the force F3 transmitted to this cam 8 with respect to that transmitted in the case of the figure 4 , without diminishing the F2 exerted on the cam 7 and this regardless of the position of the pivot axis of the lever 2b and the pin 2d.
  • the opening 6b it is chosen to provide a degree of freedom sufficient to allow the piece 6 to rotate a limited degree around the ankle 2d to ensure a contact between the hammers 6c and 6d with hearts 7 and 8 respectively, which allows the rotation of these two hearts. Indeed, if the hammers were not limited in their movement around the ankle 2d, they could take a position such that at the time of the contact between the hammers 6c and 6d with the hearts, it is not the working surface of the hammers which acts on the hearts, which would cause a blockage of the rotation of the hearts.
  • the axis of rotation of the lever should be located, relative to the straight line connecting the axes of the reset cams, in a position that allows to apply to the pivot axis of the hammers a force whose direction form, with the straight line connecting the axes of the reset cams, an angle as close as possible to the right angle, so that the torque transmitted to each cam is sufficient to rotate them.
