Abstract
Description
L'invention concerne un mouvement pour une pièce d'horlogerie comprenant une platine de fixation pour un anneau d'affichage.The invention relates to a movement for a timepiece comprising a mounting plate for a display ring.
L'invention concerne plus particulièrement un mouvement pour une pièce d'horlogerie comprenant au moins un anneau d'affichage qui est monté à rotation autour d'un axe sur une platine et qui porte, sur sa face supérieure, des inscriptions prévues pour apparaître dans une zone d'affichage, dans lequel l'anneau est muni d'une denture périphérique intérieure qui coopère avec des moyens d'entraînement de telle manière que les inscriptions portées par l'anneau défilent dans la zone d'affichage, et qui coopère avec un dispositif d'arrêt par effet de sautoir, monté sur la platine, apte à arrêter l'anneau dans une position angulaire déterminée en venant en appui radial contre la denture intérieure, le dispositif d'arrêt étant sollicité vers sa position d'appui radial par un élément élastique de rappel, et dans lequel une plaque de maintien est fixée sur la platine de manière à retenir axialement le dispositif d'arrêt.The invention more particularly relates to a movement for a timepiece comprising at least one display ring which is rotatably mounted about an axis on a plate and which carries, on its upper face, inscriptions intended to appear in a display area, in which the ring is provided with an internal peripheral toothing which cooperates with drive means in such a way that the markings carried by the ring pass in the display area, and which cooperates with a jumper device, mounted on the plate, capable of stopping the ring in a determined angular position by bearing radially against the internal toothing, the stop device being biased towards its radial bearing position by an elastic return element, and wherein a holding plate is fixed on the plate so as to axially retain the stop device.
Les opérations d'assemblage de ce type de mouvement peuvent être une source de problème, en particulier lorsqu'il s'agit de fixer la plaque de maintien sur la platine. En effet, le sautoir et son élément élastique de rappel sont prévus pour être maintenus en position sur la platine, à l'état armé, par l'intermédiaire de la plaque de maintien qui vient les recouvrir. Par conséquent, une fois le montage du sautoir et de son élément élastique de rappel effectué, l'élément élastique de rappel peut être éjecté facilement à la suite d'une secousse ou vibration, avant que la plaque de maintien soit complètement en place, ce qui complique les opérations d'assemblage.The assembly operations of this type of movement can be a source of problems, particularly when it comes to fixing the holding plate on the plate. Indeed, the jumper and its elastic return member are provided to be held in position on the plate, in the armed state, through the holding plate which covers them. Therefore, once the assembly of the jumper and its elastic return member made, the elastic return member can be ejected easily following a shake or vibration, before the holding plate is completely in place, this which complicates assembly operations.
Pour résoudre ce problème, le document
La présente invention vise à proposer une solution alternative au problème technique mentionné précédemment, tout en simplifiant les opérations d'assemblage par rapport à la solution proposée dans le document
Dans ce but, l'invention propose un mouvement du type décrit précédemment, caractérisé en ce que la plaque de maintien est fixée sur la platine par un montage du type à baïonnette au cours duquel la plaque de maintien occupe, sur la platine, d'abord une première position angulaire non fixée puis une seconde position angulaire fixée, et en ce que la plaque de maintien comporte au moins un organe d'armage qui coopère avec le dispositif d'arrêt au cours du pivotement de la plaque de maintien depuis sa position angulaire non fixée vers sa position angulaire fixée, de manière à armer l'élément élastique de rappel associé.For this purpose, the invention proposes a movement of the type described above, characterized in that the holding plate is fixed on the plate by a mounting bayonet type during which the holding plate occupies, on the plate, first a first angular position not fixed and then a second position angularly fixed, and in that the holding plate comprises at least one armature member which cooperates with the stop device during the pivoting of the holding plate from its non-fixed angular position to its fixed angular position, so as to to arm the associated elastic return element.
Grâce à ces caractéristiques, le mouvement selon l'invention est particulièrement simple à assembler. L'utilisation de vis de fixation pour la plaque de maintien n'est plus nécessaire ce qui simplifie les opérations d'assemblage et ce qui minimise le nombre de pièces constituant le mouvement. Une seule opération de pivotement de la plaque de maintien permet à la fois sa fixation sur la platine et l'armage de l'élément élastique de rappel associé au sautoir.Thanks to these characteristics, the movement according to the invention is particularly simple to assemble. The use of fixing screws for the holding plate is no longer necessary which simplifies assembly operations and minimizes the number of parts constituting the movement. A single pivoting operation of the holding plate allows both its attachment to the plate and the arming of the elastic return element associated with the jumper.
De préférence, la plaque de maintien comporte des languettes de fixation qui sont en saillies sous la face inférieure de la plaque de maintien et qui coopèrent avec des encoches complémentaires aménagées dans la platine pour retenir axialement la plaque de maintien sur la platine. L'organe d'armage est constitué par un ergot qui s'étend en saillie sous la face inférieure de la plaque de maintien. Une telle plaque de maintien est particulièrement facile à fabriquer, notamment à partir d'une tôle par découpage, estampage et pliage, ou sous la forme d'une pièce moulée.Preferably, the retaining plate comprises fixing tongues which protrude under the lower face of the holding plate and which cooperate with complementary notches arranged in the plate for axially retaining the holding plate on the plate. The armoring member is constituted by a lug which protrudes under the underside of the holding plate. Such a holding plate is particularly easy to manufacture, especially from a sheet metal by cutting, stamping and folding, or in the form of a molded part.
Selon un mode de réalisation avantageux, le dispositif d'arrêt comporte un pied d'appui qui coopère avec la denture intérieure et un bras élastique qui constitue l'élément élastique de rappel, et le dispositif d'arrêt est réalisé d'une seule pièce. On obtient un montage plus facile et un agencement plus facile de l'organe d'armage par rapport au dispositif d'arrêt.According to an advantageous embodiment, the stop device comprises a support foot which cooperates with the internal toothing and an elastic arm which constitutes the elastic return element, and the stop device is made in one piece. . An easier assembly and an easier arrangement of the armoring member with respect to the arresting device is obtained.
Dans un mode de réalisation comportant un anneau supérieur et un anneau inférieur qui sont superposés axialement et qui constituent des anneaux de quantième, chaque anneau comportant un dispositif d'arrêt associé, l'anneau supérieur présentant au moins une fenêtre ouverte ou transparente permettant de faire apparaître les inscriptions portées par l'anneau inférieur, les moyens d'entraînement coopérant avec les dentures intérieures des anneaux de telle manière que les inscriptions portées par l'anneau inférieur apparaissent successivement dans la zone d'affichage au travers de la fenêtre, l'anneau supérieur restant immobile, puis que, l'anneau inférieur étant immobile, les inscriptions portées par l'anneau supérieur apparaissent successivement dans la zone d'affichage, l'anneau supérieur recouvrant les inscriptions de l'anneau inférieur, on prévoit avantageusement que les dispositifs d'arrêt soient superposés axialement et qu'ils soient montés pivotant autour du même axe. De plus, l'organe d'armage coopère avec les bras élastiques des deux dispositifs d'arrêt de manière à armer les deux dispositifs d'arrêt simultanément, et l'axe de pivotement des dispositifs d'arrêt est constitué par un tenon réalisé d'une seule pièce avec la platine. Ces caractéristiques contribuent à faciliter les opérations d'assemblage du mouvement en simplifiant sa structure. La fiabilité du fonctionnement du mouvement s'en trouve aussi améliorée.In an embodiment comprising an upper ring and a lower ring which are superposed axially and which constitute date rings, each ring comprising an associated stop device, the upper ring having at least one open or transparent window making it possible to appearing the inscriptions carried by the lower ring, the driving means cooperating with the inner teeth of the rings so that the inscriptions carried by the lower ring appear successively in the display area through the window, the upper ring remaining stationary, then that, the lower ring being stationary, the inscriptions carried by the upper ring appear successively in the display area, the upper ring covering the inscriptions of the lower ring, it is advantageously provided that the stop devices are axially superimposed and that they are pivotally mounted of the same axis. In addition, the arming member cooperates with the elastic arms of the two stop devices so as to arm the two stop devices simultaneously, and the pivot axis of the stop devices is constituted by a tenon made in one piece with the plate. These features help to facilitate assembly operations of the movement by simplifying its structure. The reliability of the operation of the movement is also improved.
Avantageusement, la plaque de maintien comporte une languette d'indexation angulaire qui est munie d'une ouverture et qui coopère avec un plot d'indexation angulaire agencé sur la platine de manière que le plot d'indexation soit reçu dans l'ouverture à la fin du montage à baïonnette en vue de bloquer le pivotement de la plaque de maintien autour de son axe. La languette d'indexation angulaire s'étend globalement dans un plan radial. Elle comporte une extrémité radiale libre et une extrémité radiale opposée liée à la plaque de maintien par une zone de flexion. L'ouverture est délimitée circonférentiellement par deux bords d'appui opposés, la distance séparant les deux bords d'appui étant sensiblement égale au diamètre du plot d'indexation angulaire. Ceci permet d'obtenir une plus grande précision dans le positionnement angulaire de la plaque de maintien et une fixation plus fiable de la plaque de maintien sur la platine, sans compliquer les opérations de fabrication et d'assemblage.Advantageously, the holding plate comprises an angular indexing tab which is provided with an opening and which cooperates with an angular indexing pad arranged on the plate so that the indexing pad is received in the opening at the end of the bayonet mount to block the pivoting of the holding plate about its axis. The angular indexing tab extends generally in a radial plane. It comprises a free radial end and an opposite radial end connected to the holding plate by a bending zone. The opening is delimited circumferentially by two opposite bearing edges, the distance separating the two bearing edges being substantially equal to the diameter of the angular indexing pad. This makes it possible to obtain greater precision in the angular positioning of the holding plate and a more reliable fixation of the holding plate on the plate, without complicating the manufacturing and assembly operations.

Le tenon 36 est réalisé ici d'une seule pièce avec la platine 16.The
Chaque sautoir 32, 34 est sollicité vers sa position d'appui radial par un élément élastique de rappel 40, 42 qui est constitué ici par un bras élastique réalisé d'une seule pièce avec le corps principal 44, 46 du sautoir 32, 34. Le corps principal 44, 46 de chaque sautoir 32, 34 constitue un pied d'appui de forme globalement complémentaire de la denture intérieure 24, 26 des anneaux 12, 14 associés.Each
Bien entendu, selon une variante non représentée, l'élément élastique de rappel 40, 42 pourrait être constitué par un ressort distinct du corps principal 44, 46 du sautoir 32, 34 associé.Of course, according to a variant not shown, the
Un tel système d'affichage de quantième à deux anneaux superposés est décrit en détail dans le document
Une plaque de maintien 48 est fixée sur la platine 16, notamment en vue de retenir axialement les anneaux 12, 14 et les sautoirs 32, 34 sur la platine 16. Ici, la plaque de maintien 48 permet aussi de retenir axialement la roue entraîneuse 29 sur son axe sur la platine 16.A
Selon une caractéristique avantageuse de l'invention, la plaque de maintien 48 est fixée sur la platine 16 par un montage du type à baïonnette. A cet effet, la plaque de maintien 48 est munie d'organes de fixation 50 qui coopèrent avec des éléments complémentaires 54 agencés sur la platine 16. Le montage de la plaque de maintien 48 sur la platine 16 s'effectue par un premier mouvement de translation axiale A1 vers la face supérieure 18 de la platine 16, puis par un second mouvement de pivotement de la plaque de maintien 48 relativement à la platine 16 autour de l'axe A1. Au cours du mouvement de pivotement, la plaque de maintien 48 occupe d'abord une première position angulaire non fixée, qui est représentée sur la figure 3, puis une seconde position angulaire fixée, qui est représentée sur les figures 2 et 4, dans laquelle les organes de fixation 50 coopèrent avec les organes complémentaires 54.According to an advantageous characteristic of the invention, the
Selon une autre caractéristique avantageuse de l'invention, la plaque de maintien 48 comporte un organe d'armage 58 qui coopère avec les sautoirs 32, 34 au cours du pivotement de la plaque de maintien 48 depuis sa position angulaire non fixée vers sa position angulaire fixée. De préférence, l'organe d'armage 58 est constitué par un ergot 58 qui s'étend en saillie sous la face inférieure 60 de la plaque de maintien 48.According to another advantageous characteristic of the invention, the
L'ergot 58, en forme de plaque, s'étend ici dans un plan vertical globalement orthogonal au plan général de la plaque de maintien 48. Il comporte une surface de commande 62 orientée ici globalement vers l'extérieur, par rapport au centre du mouvement 10, de sorte que la surface de commande 62 est sensiblement parallèle aux bras élastiques 40, 42 des sautoirs 32, 34, lorsque la plaque de maintien 48 occupe sa position angulaire fixée. Plus précisément, l'ergot 58 et sa surface de commande 62 sont agencés de manière que, dans la position angulaire non fixée de la plaque de maintien 48, l'extrémité d'appui 64, 66 de chaque bras élastique 40, 42 est distante de la surface de commande 62 et de manière que, dans la position angulaire fixée de la plaque de maintien 48, l'extrémité d'appui 64, 66 de chaque bras élastique 40, 42 est en appui contre la surface de commande 62 ce qui sollicite les sautoirs 32, 34 en appui radial contre les dentures intérieures 24, 26.The
Un avantage de ce mode de réalisation est qu'un seul ergot 58 est nécessaire pour armer simultanément les deux sautoirs 32, 34. Bien entendu, selon une variante de réalisation (non représentée) de l'invention, les sautoirs 32, 34 pourraient être montés pivotants sur deux tenons 36 différents et la plaque de maintien 48 pourrait comporter deux ergots 58 associés respectivement à chaque sautoir 32, 34, ces ergots 58 coopérant simultanément ou de manière décalée avec les bras élastiques 40, 42 des sautoirs 32, 34 pour les armer.An advantage of this embodiment is that only one
De préférence, les organes de fixation 50 sont constitués ici par trois languettes de fixation 50 en forme de L qui sont en saillies sous la face inférieure 60 de la plaque de maintien 48 et qui sont prévues pour être reçues dans les organes complémentaires 54 constitués par des encoches 54 aménagées dans la plateforme 18 de la platine 16 en vue de retenir axialement la plaque de maintien 48 sur la platine 16. A cet effet, chaque encoche 54 comporte une ouverture ou entrée 65 pour l'insertion axiale de la languette de fixation 50 associée et un rebord 67 sous lequel l'extrémité libre du L de la languette de fixation 50 vient se positionner, lorsque la plaque de maintien 48 occupe sa position angulaire fixée.Preferably, the
Avantageusement, la plaque de maintien 48 comporte une languette d'indexation 52 angulaire qui est munie d'une ouverture 68 et qui coopère par emboîtement avec un plot d'indexation 70 angulaire agencé sur la plateforme 18 de manière que le plot d'indexation 70 soit reçu dans l'ouverture 68 à la fin du montage à baïonnette, pour bloquer le pivotement de la plaque de maintien 48 autour de son axe A1 en position angulaire fixée.Advantageously, the retaining
La languette d'indexation 52 s'étend ici dans un plan radial confondu avec le plan général de la plaque de maintien 48. Elle comporte une extrémité radiale libre 72 et une extrémité radiale opposée 74 qui est liée à la plaque de maintien 48 par une zone de flexion 76. L'ouverture 68 est délimitée circonférentiellement par deux bords d'appui 78, 80 opposés, la distance séparant les deux bords d'appui 78, 80 étant sensiblement égale au diamètre du plot d'indexation 70 angulaire.The
De préférence, la plaque de maintien 48 est réalisée en tôle par découpage, estampage et pliage, ce qui permet de réaliser les languettes de fixation 50, la languette d'indexation 52 et l'ergot 58 d'une seule pièce avec la plaque de maintien 48 de manière simple et économique. Bien entendu, selon une variante de réalisation, la plaque de maintien 48 peut être réalisée par moulage en métal ou dans une matière plastique.Preferably, the holding
Les opérations d'assemblage du mouvement 10 selon l'invention sont maintenant décrites. Les deux anneaux 12, 14 sont placés sur la platine 16, guidés axialement par les portions 20 de paroi cylindrique, et les deux sautoirs 32, 34 sont enfilés sur le tenon 36 associé. A ce stade de l'assemblage, les bras élastiques 40, 42 des sautoirs 32, 34 sont à l'état de repos, c'est à dire non comprimés, et les sautoirs 32, 34 ne sont pas sollicités en appui radial contre les dentures intérieures 24, 26 des anneaux 12, 14. On note que les anneaux 12, 14 peuvent être montés sur la platine 16 avant ou après les sautoirs 32, 34.The assembly operations of the
La plaque de maintien 48 est ensuite placée sur la plateforme 18 de la platine 16 de manière que les languettes de fixation 50 puissent être insérées axialement (A1) dans les ouvertures 65 des encoches 54. La plaque de maintien 48 occupe alors sa position angulaire non fixée. A ce stade, les bras élastiques 40, 42 sont toujours à l'état de repos et la languette d'indexation 52 est décalée angulairement par rapport au plot d'indexation 70, ce qui correspond à la représentation de la figure 3.The holding
La plaque de maintien 48 est ensuite pivotée de quelques degrés autour de son axe A1, par rapport à la platine 16, dans le sens horaire en considérant les figures, jusqu'à occuper sa position angulaire fixée qui est représentée sur les figures 2 et 4. Dans cette position angulaire fixée, les languettes élastiques 40, 42 sont armées et en appui contre l'ergot d'armage 58, les languettes de fixation 50 sont placées sous le rebord 67 des encoches 54 associées, ce qui retient axialement la plaque de maintien 48 sur la platine 16, et le plot d'indexation 70 est reçu dans l'ouverture 68 de la languette d'indexation 52, ce qui immobilise angulairement la plaque de maintien 48.The holding
Au cours du pivotement de la plaque de maintien 48, l'ergot 58 vient progressivement en appui contre les extrémités d'appui 64, 66 des bras élastiques 40, 42, ce qui arme les sautoirs 32, 34 en les sollicitant élastiquement contre les dentures intérieures 24, 26 associées.During the pivoting of the holding
On note que le démontage de la plaque de maintien 48 peut s'effectuer aisément. Il suffit de fléchir légèrement la languette d'indexation 52 vers le haut pour la désengager du plot d'indexation 70, puis de faire pivoter la plaque de maintien 48 en sens inverse jusqu'à sa position angulaire non fixée.It is noted that the disassembly of the holding
