Definitions

  • the invention relates to an assembly element and a timepiece comprising such an element.
  • the invention more particularly relates to an assembly element made in a plate of brittle material such as silicon, in particular for a timepiece, having an opening provided for the axial insertion of a shaft, the inner wall of the opening having elastic structures which are etched in the plate and which each have at least one bearing surface for radially clamping the shaft to ensure attachment of the connecting member with respect to the shaft.
  • the assembly elements such as the watch hands and the gears are fixed on their rotary shaft by driving, that is to say that a hollow cylinder is forced on an axis. having a diameter slightly greater than the inside diameter of the cylinder.
  • the elastic and plastic properties of the material used generally a metal, are used for this hunting.
  • a hollow cylinder on a conventional rotating shaft such as those used in mechanical watchmaking , with a diameter tolerance of the order of +/- 5 microns.
  • the fixing solution of the connecting element such as a needle must provide sufficient force to hold the element in place during shocks.
  • the force required for a conventional watchmaking needle is for example of the order of a Newton.
  • the invention aims to remedy these problems by proposing an improved elastic structure, in particular to allow the use of the assembly element as a rotary element in a clockwork mechanism, in particular as a watchmaker's hand.
  • the invention proposes an assembly element according to claim 1.
  • the assembly element according to the invention makes it possible to improve the clamping force against the shaft, to allow a better distribution of the forces related to the elastic deformation in the material constituting the connecting element, and to allow a better control of the clamping force obtained on the shaft, while remaining away from the breaking point of the material.
  • the elastic structures according to the invention offer a radial clearance, following their elastic deformation, which is large enough to compensate for manufacturing tolerances applied to the diameter of a shaft such as those used in timepieces. for the training of the needles.
  • the invention also proposes a timepiece characterized in that it comprises at least one connecting element according to one of the preceding characteristics.
  • FIG 1 schematically shows a timepiece 10 which is made in accordance with the teachings of the invention.
  • the timepiece 10 comprises a movement 12 mounted inside a casing 14 closed by a lens 16.
  • the movement 12 drives in rotation, about an axis A1, analog display means constituted here by a hour hand 18, a minute hand 20, and a second hand 22, these hands extending above a dial 24.
  • the needles 18, 20, 22 are fixed on shafts 26, 28, 30 of cylindrical rotation coaxial elastic clamping, like a hunting, as will be seen later.
  • the shafts 26, 28, 30 are conventional shafts commonly used in watch movements, for example shafts made of metal or plastic material.
  • the needles 18, 20, 22 constitute connecting elements, each needle 18, 20, 22 being made in a plate of brittle material, preferably of crystalline material based on silicon, and being designed to be assembled on its shaft 26 , 28, 30.
  • Each needle 18, 20, 22 here comprises a fixing ring 31 which defines an opening 32 provided to allow the attachment of the needle 18, 20, 22 on the shaft 26, 28, 30 associated by axial insertion in the opening 32.
  • the inner wall 33 of the opening 32 comprises elastic structures 34 which are etched in the plate forming the fixing ring 31 and which each comprise bearing surfaces 36, 38 for radially clamping the associated shaft 26, 28, 30 in order to retain axially and radially the needle 18 , 20, 22 on the shaft 26, 28, 30, and in order to make the shaft and the associated needle integral with rotation.
  • each elastic structure 34 is constituted by a fork which is connected to the inner wall 33 of the opening 32 by a material bridge 40 and which comprises two branches 42, 44 extending from and other material bridge 40, generally to the shaft 26, 28, 30.
  • each branch 42, 44 has a bearing surface 36, 38 in the vicinity of its free end 46, 48.
  • each resilient structure 34 is bent towards each other forming a "C" almost closed.
  • Each branch 42, 44 of each elastic structure 34 is in the form of a substantially parabolic curve of which a fixed first end 50, 52 is arranged on the associated material bridge 40 and a second free end 46, 48 faces the free end 46, 48 of the other leg 42, 44 of the elastic structure 34.
  • the free ends 46, 48 of the branches 42, 44 of each elastic structure 34 are sufficiently close so that the inner face of each leg 42, 44 is substantially tangential to the axial surface of the shaft 26, in the vicinity of the free ends 46, 48, the bearing surface 36, 38 of each leg 42, 44 thus being situated on the inner face of its free end section, opposite the shaft 26.
  • the elastic structures 34 are evenly distributed around the axis A1.
  • the number of elastic structures 34 arranged around the opening 32 is chosen as a function of the diameter of the associated shaft 26, 28, 30 and as a function of the available radial space between the inner wall 33 of the opening 32 and the outer wall 54 of the fixing ring 31 of the needle 18, 20, 22.
  • the diameter of the shaft 26 associated with the hour hand 18 is much larger than the diameter of the shaft 30 associated with the second hand 22, and as the diameter outside the fixing ring 31 does not evolve proportionally, it was selected a number of elastic structures 34 equal to twelve for the hour hand 18 while the number of elastic structures 34 is equal to three for the needle of the Secondly, the number of elastic structures 34 in the minute hand 20 is here equal to six.
  • each elastic structure 34 comprises a main section 56 which extends on each side of the material bridge 40.
  • Each branch 42, 44 extends from the end of the main section 56 opposite the material bridge 40, in a rectilinear direction.
  • Each branch 42, 44 is inclined towards the branch 42, 44 associated, with respect to a radial direction.
  • the surface 36, 38 of each branch 42, 44 is arranged at the free end 46, 48 of the branch 42, 44.
  • each elastic structure 34 extends in a substantially circumferential direction, parallel to the cylindrical inner wall 33 of the opening 32, which makes it possible to maximize the length of the main section 56 and the branches 42, 44 straight to distribute the stresses related to the elastic deformation of the branches 42, 44 in a larger volume.
  • the second embodiment has the advantage of producing a self-locking effect, when the shaft 26, 28, 30 and the associated needle 18, 20, 22 are assembled together. Indeed, the inclination of the branches 42, 44 allows a dynamic reaction to an acceleration in rotation, which makes this embodiment particularly suitable for fixing assembly elements supporting high angular accelerations or in the case where the rotating element has a significant imbalance in the distribution of masses, which is the case for the needles of a timepiece.
  • each elastic structure 34 exert thrust forces in opposite directions, so that each leg 42, 44 opposes the relative rotation of the needle 18, 20, 22 relative to the shaft 26, 28, 30 associated in a preferred direction of rotation.
  • first limb 42 of each elastic structure 34 opposes the relative rotation of the needle 18 in the counter-clockwise direction and the second leg 44 of each elastic structure 34 opposes the relative rotation of the needle 18 clockwise.
  • the elastic structures 34 of the second embodiment thus provide a particularly effective rotational connection between the needles 18, 20, 22 and the associated shafts 26, 28, 30.
  • fork-shaped elastic structures 34 having a tangentially or circumferentially oriented section (the section 56) and a rectilinear section (the branch 42, 44) oriented towards the associated shaft 26, 28, 30 makes it possible to reduce the stiffness of the elastic structure 34 which allows a radial clearance of sufficient value to allow attachment to the shaft 26, 28, 30, in particular to compensate for the diameter tolerances of the shaft.
  • Each elastic structure 34 must have sufficient flexibility to allow attachment both to a shaft having a diameter smaller than the nominal value and to a shaft having a diameter greater than the nominal value.
  • the advantages mentioned here with reference to the second embodiment apply in part to the first embodiment, the realization of structures elastic members comprising two branches 42, 44 with the advantage of a dynamic reaction to an angular acceleration.
  • the branches 42, 44 curves of the first embodiment also make it possible to obtain a decrease in the stiffness of the elastic structure 34 and an adequate radial displacement for attachment to the shaft.
  • each elastic structure 34 has an axial plane of symmetry P which extends along a radius passing through the middle of the material bridge 40.
  • the connecting element may be constituted by another type of rotary element, for example by a toothed wheel used in a clockwork movement.
  • the connecting element may also be constituted by a non-rotating element, for example a plate of brittle material intended to be assembled on another element comprising a fixing shaft, or tenon, of metal.
  • the present invention is applicable to a needle 18, 20, 22 made in a silicon wafer comprising a single layer of silicon, as well as in a Silicon On Insulator (SOI) type wafer which comprises an upper layer and a lower layer of silicon separated by an intermediate layer of silicon oxide.
  • SOI Silicon On Insulator
