Definitions

  • the subject of the present invention is a timepiece, in particular a wristwatch or pocket watch, and more particularly a watch of the reversible type.
  • One of the aims of the present invention is to make it possible to provide such diverse complication watches and to this end to have a greater number of displays.
  • Another object of the present invention is to make it possible to control, from a watch movement housed in a watch case, an additional module housed in a space distinct from said watch case.
  • Another object of the present invention is to allow a mechanical pulse control device controlled by the watch movement to act on the additional module in the two service positions.
  • the reversible watch comprises a watch case consisting of a middle-case 1 provided with a first lens 2 forming the first visible face of the watch, a casing ring 3 and its side plates 4, and a box bottom 5 provided with a second ice 6.
  • the reversible watch further includes a cradle 36 provided with a third mirror 7, horns 8 for fixing a bracelet and a bottom of the cradle 9.
  • a watch movement 10 is mounted on the casing ring 3, in the illustrated example it is a double-sided movement, that is to say having a switch 11 and a dial 12 and a top switch 13 and a lower dial 14.
  • An additional mechanism or module 15 comprising a switch 16 and a dial 17 is mounted in the cradle between the cradle 36 and its third mirror 7 on the one hand and the bottom cradle 9 on the other.
  • the watch case further comprises a tube 18 fixed on the casing ring 3 and passing through the middle bezel 1 and the bottom of the box 5, tube 18 on which is pivoted a winding crown 19 connected to a winding stem (not shown ) of the watch movement 10 (see figure 6 ).
  • the crown 19 and the winding stem are vertically located in the plane of symmetry of the watch case so that, regardless of the service position of the box in the cradle, the winding crown 19 is always located substantially at the same height relative to the cradle 36.
  • the watch case 1, 5 is mounted on the cradle 36 with pads 20 having an elongated slide 21 and dovetail-shaped sliding freely without being able to pivot in a slide 22 of corresponding shape of the cradle 36, these pads 20 also having a pin 23 pivoted in a bore 24 of the casing ring.
  • this timepiece comprises a reversible watch mounted on a cradle, the reversible watch having at least a first face provided with an ice and a display.
  • the watch has an ice on each of its faces and therefore has two faces for the display of physical size such as time, date, month, starry sky etc.
  • the watch may have only one mirror, its other face being formed by an engraved or decorated bottom.
  • this timepiece comprises an additional mechanism or module 15 mounted between the cradle 36 and the bottom of the cradle 9 and having a visible display through the third mirror 7 of the cradle 36.
  • the present timepiece therefore comprises at least two display faces and possibly three, which allows to display more physical magnitudes than is possible in the current watches, the available surface for these displays being increased.
  • the reversible watch according to the present invention is therefore a reversible watch comprising at least two, but preferably three distinct display areas, three windows and three dials.
  • the present invention relates to a timepiece according to claim 1. It should be noted that the features of the reversibility mechanism used are not part of the present invention, and this reversibility could be achieved in any way so that the box, including the middle-bezel 1, the casing ring 3, and the bottom 5, is reversible in the cradle 36.
  • the additional mechanism or module 15 can be autonomous or, on the contrary, controlled by the clockwork movement 10 housed in the watch case 1, 3, 5. In the latter case, it would be advantageous to be able to control the module additional 15 directly by the watch movement 10 regardless of the service position of the watch on the cradle and moreover this command is not deactivated or disturbed by the change of position of the watch case 1, 3, 5 on the cradle.
  • the present invention also relates to a control device, particularly by pulse, for delivering to a mobile additional module 15 a pulse that can advance this mobile one step every pulse transmission, for example once a day to order an additional date module.
  • the box movement corrector comprises a bushing 25 driven into the casing ring 3 and through which is housed a box pusher 26 having a length greater than that of the sleeve 25.
  • This box pusher 26 slides freely but of sealingly in the sleeve 25 and its inner end located in the box is adapted to be pushed by a control element forming part of the watch movement 10.
  • This control element which is not illustrated here can be made in the form a lever, a hammer, a toothing of a mobile etc.
  • a spring incorporated into the box corrector 25, 26 tends to maintain this pusher 26 in retracted rest position in the box.
  • the module corrector is in all respects similar and comprises a bushing 27 driven into the bottom of the cradle 9 and secured thereto and a cradle pusher 28 sliding freely but tightly in this sleeve 27 and having a length greater than that of the sleeve 27.
  • a spring incorporated in this cradle corrector 27, 28 tends to maintain the cradle pusher 28 in its rest position for which its outer end comes out of the cradle bottom 9.
  • a rocker 29 is integral with an axis 30 pivoted in two bearings 34 embedded in the wall of the cradle 36.
  • the upper end 31 of the rocker 29 abuts against the outer end of the pusher 26 of the box corrector while the lower end 32 of the rocker 29 abuts against the outer end of the pusher 28 of the corrector cradle.
  • the rocker 29 pivots about its axis 30 and its lower end causes a displacement of the pusher 28 of the box.
  • cradle corrector inwardly of the cradle bottom 9 causing the actuation of a control element of the additional module 15.
  • This control element could also be a lever, a hammer or the toothing of a mobile, etc.
  • the rocker 29 is completely embedded in a groove 33 of the cradle 36 and the bottom of the cradle 9 so as to be protected.
  • a longitudinal groove 21 ' is made in the shoe 20 allowing the latter to slide in the slide 21, the end 31 of the rocker 29 passing in this longitudinal groove 21 'when in the rest position.
  • the bushing 25 and the pusher 26 of the box corrector are arranged so that their axis of symmetry is located in the plane of symmetry of the box 1, 3, 5 so that, regardless of the service position of the box, the outer end of the box pusher 26 is always in contact with the upper end 31 of the lever 29,
  • the control device is always able to transmit a pulse given by the watchmaking movement 10 to the box pusher 26 on the cradle pusher 28 which can thus control a mobile of the additional module 15.
  • control device has been described with reference to a reversible watch for transmitting a mechanical pulse of a clockwork movement housed in the reversible watch case to an additional module housed in the cradle and the bottom of the watch. cradle of the watch.
  • this pulse correction device can be used in a timepiece comprising two separate housings, one containing a clockwork movement and the other an additional module of this movement for controlling this module from the movement.
