Definitions

  • the invention relates to a system for handling and transporting clock movements of different types during manufacture, comprising different types of support rings which correspond respectively to the different types of movements and are each arranged to support a platinum. a movement in a certain position.
  • the invention also relates to a support ring of this kind.
  • the invention is particularly applicable to the mass production of watch movements, but can also be used to support such movements in other circumstances. It is especially useful in the automated assembly of mechanical or electromechanical movements which have a plate, base plate serving both to support the main components and to position said movement, especially in workstations on an assembly line and then in a watch boot.
  • the applications of the invention are not limited to assembly operations and can advantageously extend to a large part of the manufacture and control of a watch movement, as well as storage thereof.
  • the movements of mechanical or electromechanical watches are typically products assembled in series on largely automated lines, but in which some stations may require manual intervention or treatment of certain offline movements in order to make corrections or adjustments.
  • these lines often have branches that allow additional operations to be performed on certain products or groups of products before they are reintroduced to the line.
  • Each line also has buffers for temporarily storing products in a queue.
  • the number of products present on the line at a given moment can be large and represent a fairly expensive stock. This also increases the length of time a product passes through the line.
  • a linear transfer system commonly used in current production lines is the BOA system of Lécureux SA, Bienne (Switzerland), which uses plastic pallets each with five receptacles to support five movements and transport them together. along a production line.
  • Ten pallets can be grouped on a tray to form a store of fifty pieces, used in particular in buffer stocks online, which may contain several hundred movements in some cases.
  • Three sizes of pallets are provided for small, medium and large movements, respectively.
  • Licences CH 310 885 , CH 380 660 and CH 392 400 describe pallets or support plates similar to the principle of the BOA system.
  • the second of these patents further describes a system still widely used to position each movement in a workstation, by means of pins vertically engaging in holes of the movement.
  • the plates can be stacked for transport, that of the top can be provided with a protective cover.
  • FR 1156164 (corresponding to DE 1719342U ) is described a substantially cylindrical individual support of plastic for mounting and transporting a watch movement, particularly in a series production.
  • the outer edge of the movement stage rests in a rabbet of the upper edge of the support.
  • Several of these supports can be stacked, the upper support being able to serve as a cover.
  • the cylindrical mantle of the support simply serves as a base.
  • the present invention aims to avoid to a substantial extent the disadvantages described above, in particular thanks to a handling system offering great versatility and great flexibility, in particular to make it possible to manufacture watch movements of different types or calibres, successively on the same line of manufacture or assembly, with the least possible reworking work to move from one type to another.
  • Another object of the invention is to facilitate the handling of movements during manufacture and adjustment operations.
  • the invention should facilitate the monitoring of the manufacture of each movement through an identification of the movements and operations to which they were subjected.
  • the invention relates to a support ring for a watch movement, defined by claim 1 of the patent.
  • each movement is provisionally fixed and housed in a precise spatial position in a standard outer configuration support ring, so that the ring can be manipulated instead of moving throughout the manufacturing process. Therefore, the precise positioning of a plate or a movement carried by it, in any workstation of a production line, both in a manual position in an automatic assembly machine, n It does not need to be done by pressing against surfaces of the plate, because it is enough to do it by pressing against the reference surfaces of the support ring. As it is a standardized form, not dependent on the type of movement, the receptacles (or positions) ensuring the positioning of the ring remain the same to work on the different types of movements.
  • the same is true for gripping tools, as well as for pallets used for transferring and storing movements in production lines.
  • most or all of the reference surfaces on one side of the ring are identically reproduced on the other side, so that the ring is reversible and can be placed on the other side. place or upside down in some workstations.
  • a support ring defined by claim 1 of the patent further comprises identification means containing data capable of individually identifying said movement and readable by machines.
  • these identification means comprise a passive transponder comprising means for recording in a memory information relating to said movement, for example special interventions during manufacture, the results of certain checks or the addition of special components.
  • the support ring becomes in practice an ancillary part of the movement, containing a sort of individual data sheet of this movement and that can accompany the movement in all operations, including adjustments and controls, that it will undergo until you have to separate it from the ring, for example when you put it in the watch case.
  • the identification of the movement could be done simply in an optical manner readable by machines, for example by means of a barcode applied to the support ring.
  • the invention consists mainly in attaching to each watch movement a multifunctional support ring, which integrates with a new type of transport and handling system, making it possible to simplify and rationalize not only the manufacturing lines of watch movements, but also the handling of offline movements and the monitoring of the interventions and adjustments made individually on each of them.
  • the support ring 1 shown in the Figures 1 to 7 is intended to support the plate 2 of a clockwork movement, more particularly a watch movement 3, which is shown only schematically in the figure 2 .
  • This figure shows that the ring 1 can be provided with an upper cover 4 and a lower cover 5 forming with it a box 6 which contains and protects the movement 3 and is a packaging for transport and storage.
  • the two covers 4 and 5 each fit on the periphery of the ring 1 and abut axially against an outer ring 8 of the ring, located about halfway up and remaining accessible from the outside of the box .
  • the lids may be molded parts made of transparent plastics material. Note that the usual crown (not shown), attached to the end of the control rod of the movement 3, can remain outside the box 6 and thus allow to go back and set the time without leaving the movement the box.
  • the support ring 1 is a molded piece of rigid plastic material, for example POM, ensuring the accuracy and stability of shapes and dimensions. Outside, it preferably has a generally circular shape, allowing to easily rotate the ring about its central axis 10 to put it in the desired orientation in some workstations.
  • the peripheral surface of the belt 8 has a clearance, delimited here by a flat surface 9, to facilitate access to a winding crown of the movement 3.
  • the standard outer diameter of each of the different types of support rings may be of the order of about 50 mm.
  • the support ring 1 has a generally horizontal transverse wall 12, pierced with an opening 13 for receiving the plate 2 of a watch movement of a given type.
  • the shape and dimensions of this opening are specially adapted to those of the plate and the movement, in order to position it precisely in the ring 1.
  • the plate 2 is circular and a medium gauge, for example 29.6 mm.
  • the opening 13 then having a diameter much smaller than that of the ring 1, it is preferably off-center to be close enough to the periphery of the ring, so that the winding stem of the movement can emerge from the edge of the ring.
  • ring through the clearance created by the surface 9, through a notch 14 formed in a vertical wall section 15.
  • the opening 13 could be centered.
  • the crown of the winding stem can occupy a normalized position vis-à-vis the outer contour of the ring, remaining accessible to the hand of an operator or a machine for reassembly or setting. 'hour.
  • the precise positioning of the plate 2 in the opening 13 is provided by bearing surfaces, disposed around the periphery of this opening, and prestressing members which press the plate in the direction of these bearing surfaces.
  • the edge of the wall 12 around the opening 13 has a stepped profile which forms a horizontal shoulder 17 and portions 18 to 21 of a cylindrical surface.
  • Three clearances 23 are formed in the edge of the wall 12 and are each surmounted by a flexible hook 24, the base of which is integral with the wall 12. It will be noted that it would be possible in a variant to use a larger number of hooks. for example 4 or 5.
  • the free end of each hook 24 has an inclined upper surface 25 ( Fig. 5 ) and a rounded edge 26 above the shoulder 17.
  • the shape of the hooks 24 could be different, both keeping in sight a shape to optimize the insertion of the movement.
  • the vertical spacing between the shoulder 17 and the edge 26 of each hook is slightly smaller than the thickness of the plate 2 of the type of movement concerned.
  • the plate 2 can be lowered into the opening 13 of the ring 1 by forcing the hooks to move apart, until the edge of the plate exceeds the free end of each hook and abuts against the horizontal shoulder 17.
  • the profiled edge 26 of each hook 24 then passes on the upper face of the plate 2 and elastically presses the plate in the axial direction against the shoulder 17 with a permanent prestressing force.
  • the plate held by clipping by means of the hooks 24 is located axially (that is to say in the direction perpendicular to the wall 12 of the ring) positively and accurately in the support ring 1.
  • the preload exerted by the hooks 24 on the plate 2 is strong enough, preferably, to prevent any axial displacement of the plate in the ring 1 under the effect of current shocks, as well as the usual forces that the plate will support in workstations during assembly operations of the movement 3, for example the thrust exerted by the action of a screwdriver. It also turns the ring upside down without any movement. To remove the movement at the end of the cycle of use of the ring 1, it is possible to use an extractor that elastically separates the hooks 24. This ring is then either discarded or reused with another movement 3 of the same type after replacement or resetting the transponder 50.
  • a radially flexible strip 28 is formed between a portion of the edge of the opening 13 and a hole 29 passing through the wall 12.
  • the shape of this hole is elongated in the example presented here but it could be circular or other as needed.
  • the flexible strip 28 is approximately, but not exactly, opposite the notch 14. In its middle, it has in the opening 13 a radial boss 30 intended to engage in a notch of corresponding shape formed in the edge of the plate 2.
  • the shape of the boss 30 may be that of a spherical cap, while the notch of the plate may have a cylindrical shape having approximately the same radius as the bump 30. However the hump 30 is slightly larger than the depth of said notch.
  • This arrangement fulfills two functions when the plate 2 is put in place in the ring 1.
  • the strip 28 being pushed back by the support of the boss 30 in the notch of the plate 2, it exerts on the plate, by its elasticity, a permanent radial prestressing which applies the edge of the plate against the bearing surfaces 19, 20 and 21.
  • This ensures and maintains a precise position of the plate in its own plane, with respect to the
  • engagement of the boss 30 against the sides of the notch of the plate 2 defines and positively maintains an angular orientation of the platen in its plane.
  • the bearing surfaces 17 to 21 and the boss 30 define a precise spatial position for the plate 2 and the movement 3 in the support ring 1, while the flexible hooks 24 and the flexible band 28 constitute means prestressing elastics which firmly hold the platen and the movement in this position.
  • a support ring would, instead of surfaces 18 to 21 of cylindrical shape, bearing surfaces shaped like the outline of the plate.
  • the configuration and outer dimensions of the ring 1 are standardized, in that they will be the same for the various types of support rings to be used, for different calibers, in the same handling system and transport movements. It is first of radially prominent outer belt 8, having above and below two flat surfaces 32 and 33, perpendicular to the axis 10 of the ring, and a cylindrical surface 34 centered on the axis 10 These surfaces constitute reference surfaces by which the ring 1 can lean against a receptacle (or pose) to be supported and positioned in space, in particular in a workstation of a production line.
  • the cylindrical surface 34 makes it possible to ensure precise centering of the ring, but the symmetry of rotation of the periphery of the ring allows it to pivot about its axis 10 if it is necessary to change the orientation. some movement. Indeed, other reference surfaces are provided to define the angular orientation of the ring.
  • a curved or V-shaped notch 36 is formed in the peripheral surface 34 of the belt 8 to serve as an optical and mechanical marker for orienting at least approximately the ring 1.
  • each of the notches 37, 38 is formed in a vertical wall section 40 of the ring 1 and has a slightly radially flared shape so as to fit easily onto a correspondingly shaped guide member in a work station, swiveling the ring slightly if necessary to correct its orientation.
  • the slightly inclined sides of the two notches of each pair thus constitute reference surfaces 42 and 43 ( Fig. 7 ) for the orientation of a transverse reference axis 39 of the ring 1.
  • the ring 1 may be used as references, for example the upper face and the lower face of the wall 12 for the axial positioning of the ring or tools, and the peripheral wall sections 15, 40 and 52 for lateral and / or axial positioning.
  • the faces upper 44 and lower 45 of these peripheral walls are respectively located in the same radial planes, these walls all having the same height which is standardized. This can be set at a value of the order of 10 mm in order to exceed the usual maximum thickness of a watch movement without additional module.
  • one or the other of the horizontal faces 44 and 45 of the support ring 1 can be placed on a table without the movement coming into contact with the table.
  • large lateral openings such as 46a to 46d ( Fig. 6 ) are formed between the side walls 15, 40 and 52 to clear the view of the operators on the movement 3 and facilitate access of the tools and parts to be mounted on the movement.
  • an advantageous development of the present invention consists in equipping the ring with identification means, to identify individually the movement 3 mounted on this ring.
  • these means can be read by machines and can also record certain particular data concerning the movement, especially about the operations or controls that it has undergone.
  • it is a non-contact electronic means, in the form of an encapsulated transponder 50 (see FIG. Fig. 1 ), fixed in a hole 51 of a side wall section 52 of each support ring.
  • the position of the hole 51 is part of the standardized external configuration of the different types of rings of the system according to the invention, so that the transponder always takes place as close as possible to the antennas communicating with it.
  • the transponder 50 may be a passive RFID transponder, made for example as described in the patent publications EP 1052595 and EP 1770603 and having a memory 54 which contains at least one identity number that can be used to individually identify the movement 3.
  • These read / write operations can also be done when the ring 1 is in the box 6 represented in the figure 2 . Consequently, the information contained in the memory 54 of the transponder can accompany the watch movement 3 and be exploited all along its path during manufacture and the later stages, until it is necessary to separate the movement 3 of its support ring 1 to mount it in the watch case.
  • the Figures 8 to 13 represent an embodiment of a pallet 60 for supporting and transport individually the different types of support rings such as the ring 1 described above, in a transport and handling system according to the invention.
  • it is a rigid plastic molded piece similar to that of the ring 1.
  • all the pallets 60 of one of the systems according to the invention are similar, but one can also operate such a system with different types of pallets for particular reasons, provided that all the pallets are the same size and can receive the different types of support rings.
  • the pallet 60 has in plan the general shape of a square with cut corners, that is to say that of an octagon with unequal sides. This shape makes it easier to guide the pallet during transfers, especially along an automated assembly line. Its periphery is formed by a profiled belt 62 at constant height, having at the top an outer rebate 63 and at the bottom a slightly flared rim 64 which, when stacking the pallets 60, fits into the rebate 63 of the sub-pallet. core.
  • the useful height of the belt 62 is preferably of the order of 2 cm, so that movements of watches installed in such pallets by means of their support rings 1 will not be touched if the pallets are stacked.
  • the lower, side and upper faces of the belt are flat and can slide on guides along a production line and in machines.
  • a centering notch 65 extends vertically in the middle of each of the four main sides of the pallet, one of which further includes an off-center notch 66 for detecting whether the pallet is positioned upside down or upside down.
  • the belt 62 has stiffeners 67 and thickenings 68 enabling it to ensure the rigidity of the pallet and to support a transverse inner wall 69 located approximately halfway up the pallet. This wall surrounds a circular central opening 70 intended to removably receive any one of the support rings of the system, in particular the ring 1 described above, at the level of the transverse wall 69.
  • the inner periphery 72 of the opening 70 has a diameter slightly larger than the outer diameter of the ring 1 and has a boss 73 engaging in the outer slot 36 of the ring to maintain its orientation in the pallet.
  • a horizontal hole 71 connects the opening 70 to the outside of the pallet to give access to the winding stem of the movement, if any.
  • the transverse wall 69 has cutouts 74, 75 and 76 which define two pairs of opposed claws 77 and 78 arranged to attach to the belt 8 of the ring 1 leaving These claws are elastic in the radial direction, but relatively rigid in the axial direction, thanks to two arms 79 which are rather thick in the axial direction, but thin in the other directions.
  • each claw 77 has a front surface 80 of cylindrical shape, with an upper flange 81 with inclined sides.
  • each claw 78 has a front surface 82 lined with a lower rim 83 with inclined sides which holds the belt 8 of the ring on the bottom side of the pallet.
  • the elastic claws 77 and 78 of the pallet 60 support the ring 1 with play in the central opening 70, that is to say that the ring 1 and the movement 3 are positioned only approximately in relation to the palette. The same goes for their orientation, defined by the hump 73.
  • the ring 1 is positioned sufficiently accurately to be correctly taken by an automatic extractor.
  • Each claw 77, 78 is pierced with a vertical hole 84 which allows an extractor of a machine to separate one or the other pair of claws to extract the ring 1 either upwards or towards the bottom, while the extractor or another element of the machine supports the ring and moves it vertically until it rests against positioning means. These will place and orient the ring 1 in a precise position which determines the position and orientation of the movement 3 in the machine.
  • the fact that the ring 1 and the pallet 60 are both made of relatively slippery plastic material greatly reduces the risk of producing waste by wear during these operations, compared to conventional methods of extracting the metal platen 2 from a plastic support for placing in a machine.
  • the pallets 60 are equipped with hooking members that secure them when stacked to form a package can be handled easily.
  • These members comprise, in the lower face of each pallet, four holes 86 in each of which is fixed a metal stud 87, shown schematically in the figure 13 .

  • tubular pillars 88 traversed by axial slots to form resilient tongues 89 between which the pin 87 of an upper pallet will fit to be removably retained by clipping.
  • each movement 3 present on the line forms a unit with its support ring 1 equipped with the transponder 50 and, at least during the displacements, with the transport pallet 60. Since the control means of the assembly line can read the identity of this unit at various points of its course, they can individually control its circulation on the line as needed, for example to make it go through a correction loop if a control has detected an anomaly .
  • managing the inputs and outputs piece by piece with the system according to the invention is easier than to do by groups of pieces in trays or stores as was the custom in the past. state of the art. Above all, it allows to considerably reduce the number of pieces temporarily stored on the line at any time, thus also the size of the storage areas and the space occupied by the line. It also reduces the travel time of the parts and the value of the parts in stock on the line.
  • the movements 3 fixed in their support ring 1 leave the pallet 60 and can advantageously be protected by covers as shown in FIG. figure 2 , to be transported to other places in the package formed by the box 6. It is thus possible to keep the movement in its support ring for all kinds of subsequent procedures, for example the mounting of additional modules, the installation of the dial and needles, gait adjustment, control by a time laboratory, delivery to another factory, storage etc. All these procedures can use data available in the transponder 50, which continues to accompany and identify the movement 3. They can obviously record additional data that may accompany the movement 3 to the casing.
