Description
La présente invention se rapporte au domaine de l'horlogerie. Elle concerne plus précisément une montre chronographe munie d'un compteur des secondes permanentes et d'un compteur des secondes de chronographe.The present invention relates to the field of watchmaking. More specifically, it relates to a chronograph watch equipped with a permanent seconds counter and a chronograph seconds counter.
Une telle montre chronographe comporte classiquement un rouage de finissage formant une chaîne de transmission de l'énergie depuis un organe accumulateur d'énergie, le barillet, jusqu'à un organe distributeur de l'énergie, l'échappement. Ce rouage de finissage est généralement formé d'un mobile de grande moyenne, d'un mobile de moyenne, et d'un mobile des secondes de chronographe montés en série entre le barillet et l'échappement. Il comprend, en outre, un mobile des secondes permanentes, solidaire d'un organe d'affichage des secondes permanentes, monté en dérivation depuis le mobile de moyenne. Ainsi monté, le mobile des secondes permanentes est situé en fin d'un train d'engrenage formé du mobile de grande moyenne, du mobile de moyenne et de lui-même.Such a chronograph watch conventionally comprises a finishing gear forming a chain of transmission of energy from an energy accumulator member, the barrel, to an energy dispensing member, the exhaust. This finishing gear is generally formed of a mobile of medium, a mobile average, and a mobile seconds chronograph mounted in series between the cylinder and the exhaust. It further comprises a mobile of the permanent seconds, integral with a permanent seconds display member, mounted in shunt from the mobile of average. Thus mounted, the mobile of the permanent seconds is located at the end of a gear train formed of the mobile of medium, mobile average and himself.
En raison de cette situation en fin de train d'engrenage, le mobile des secondes permanentes peut tourner de façon saccadée et irrégulière, ce qui donne à l'organe d'affichage des secondes permanentes une impression de flottement et d'imprécision. Ce problème, bien connu de l'homme de métier, provient de l'existence d'un ébat d'engrenage, c'est-à-dire un jeu angulaire entre les différents mobiles, prévu pour des raisons de tolérance de fabrication, d'une part, et pour éviter une situation de blocage de l'engrenage, d'autre part. Au sein d'un engrenage, l'ébat est compensé d'un mobile à l'autre par l'action de freinage exercé par le mobile suivant, mais en fin d'engrenage, comme c'est le cas du mobile des secondes permanentes, cette action de freinage est inexistante et l'ébat d'engrenage est pleinement répercuté.Due to this situation at the end of the gear train, the mobile of the permanent seconds can turn jerky and irregular, which gives the permanent second display member an impression of floating and inaccuracy. This problem, well known to those skilled in the art, comes from the existence of a gear frame, that is to say an angular clearance between the various mobiles, provided for reasons of manufacturing tolerance, on the one hand, and to avoid a gear locking situation, on the other hand. In a gear, the frolic is compensated from one mobile to the other by the braking action exerted by the next mobile, but at the end of the gear, as is the case of the mobile of the permanent seconds, this braking action is non-existent and the frol gear is fully passed on.
Une solution pour remédier à ce problème consiste à munir le mobile des secondes permanentes d'une friction exerçant un frottement axial apte à supprimer les déplacements angulaires aléatoires liés à l'ébat. Les brevets
Le document
La présente invention propose une solution alternative au problème de flottement de l'organe d'affichage des secondes permanentes, ne faisant pas appel à l'utilisation d'une friction et n'induisant pas de pertes énergétiques. Plus précisément l'invention concerne une montre chronographe munie d'un rouage de finissage comportant :
- un mobile des secondes permanentes solidaire d'un organe d'affichage des secondes permanentes,
- un mobile des secondes de chronographe coopérant avec un embrayage pour se solidariser avec un organe d'affichage des secondes de chronographe, et
- un mobile de moyenne comprenant une première roue de moyenne montée solidaire en rotation, en prise soit avec le mobile des secondes permanentes, soit avec ledit mobile des secondes de chronographe.
The present invention proposes an alternative solution to the problem of floating the permanent second display member, not requiring the use of friction and not inducing energy losses. More specifically, the invention relates to a chronograph watch equipped with a finishing gear comprising:
- a mobile of the permanent seconds attached to a display member of the permanent seconds,
- a mobile seconds chronograph cooperating with a clutch to become solid with a display member of the chronograph seconds, and
- a moving average comprising a first wheel of medium rotationally integral, in engagement with the mobile of the seconds, or with said mobile chronograph seconds.
Selon l'invention, le rouage de finissage comporte encore une deuxième roue de moyenne montée folle, en prise, d'une part avec le mobile des secondes permanentes, et d'autre part avec le mobile des secondes de chronographe.According to the invention, the finishing gear train also comprises a second flywheel, engaged on the one hand with the mobile of the permanent seconds, and on the other hand with the mobile chronograph seconds.
Grâce à la deuxième roue moyenne montée folle entre le mobile des secondes permanentes et le mobile des secondes de chronographe, le mobile des secondes permanentes n'est plus situé en fin d'engrenage, mais en série dans le rouage de finissage. De la sorte, il n'est plus soumis à des déplacements angulaires aléatoires liés à l'ébat, et l'impression de flottement de l'organe d'affichage des secondes permanentes est éliminée.Thanks to the second average wheel madly mounted between the mobile permanent seconds and mobile chronograph seconds, the permanent seconds mobile is no longer located at the end of the gear, but in series in the gear train. In this way, it is no longer subjected to random angular displacements related to the frolicking, and the floating impression of the permanent second display member is eliminated.
D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de la présente invention ressortiront plus clairement de la description détaillée qui suit d'un exemple de réalisation d'une montre chronographe selon l'invention, cet exemple étant donné à titre purement illustratif et non limitatif seulement, en liaison avec le dessin annexé sur lequel :

La montre chronographe représentée en
Le mobile de grande moyenne 7 est formé d'un pignon de grande moyenne 12 en prise avec le barillet 1, et d'une roue de grande moyenne 13 solidaire en rotation du pignon de grande moyenne 12. Il est monté entre la platine 3 et le pont de roue de grande moyenne 4. La roue de grande moyenne 13 entraîne en rotation le mobile de moyenne 8 monté entre la platine 3 et le pont de rouage 6, et comprenant un pignon de moyenne 14, et une première roue de moyenne 15 montée solidaire en rotation du pignon de moyenne 14. A cet effet, la roue de grande moyenne 13 engrène avec le pignon de moyenne 14. La première roue de moyenne 15 est, par ailleurs, en prise avec le mobile des secondes permanentes 9, monté entre le pont des secondes permanentes 5 et le pont de rouage 6, et formé d'un pignon.The
Selon l'invention, le mobile de moyenne 8 comprend encore une deuxième roue de moyenne 16, montée folle, en prise avec le mobile des secondes permanentes 9. La deuxième roue de moyenne 16 entraîne, par ailleurs, le mobile des secondes de chronographe 10, monté libre en rotation sur un mobile de compteur des secondes de chronographe 17, et formé d'un pignon des secondes de chronographe 18 et d'une roue des secondes de chronographe 19 solidaire en rotation du pignon 18. A cet effet, la deuxième roue de moyenne 16 est en prise avec le pignon des secondes de chronographe 18.According to the invention, the mobile of average 8 further comprises a second wheel of average 16, mounted mad, in engagement with the mobile of the second permanent 9. The second wheel of average 16 causes, moreover, the
Enfin, la roue des secondes de chronographe 19 engrène avec le mobile intermédiaire d'échappement 11, lui-même en prise avec un organe de distribution non représenté.Finally, the chronograph
La transmission de l'énergie au sein du rouage de finissage 2 ainsi décrit se fait, depuis le barillet 1 jusqu'à l'organe de distribution non représenté, en passant par le pignon de grande moyenne 12, la roue de grande moyenne 13, le pignon de moyenne 14, la première roue de moyenne 15, le mobile des secondes permanentes 9, la deuxième roue de moyenne 16, le pignon des secondes de chronographe 18, la roue des secondes de chronographe 19 et enfin le mobile intermédiaire d'échappement 11.The transmission of energy within the
Grâce à la deuxième roue de moyenne 16 montée sur le mobile de moyenne, le mobile des secondes permanentes 9 n'est pas situé en fin d'engrenage, mais en série dans le rouage de finissage 2. L'ébat d'engrenage auquel il est soumis, est ainsi réduit par le freinage exercé par la deuxième roue de moyenne 16, et l'impression de flottement de l'organe d'affichage des secondes permanentes est éliminée.Thanks to the second
On notera que, pour obtenir la même vitesse de rotation des mobiles des secondes permanentes 9 et des secondes de chronographe 10, la deuxième roue moyenne 16 doit être identique en diamètre et en nombre de dents à la première roue de moyenne 15. Il est entendu que, comme dans un mode de réalisation classique, les conditions suivantes sont également respectées : Le pignon du mobile des secondes permanentes 9 et le pignon 18 du mobile des secondes de chronographe 10 sont identiques en diamètre et en nombre de dents, et l'entraxe entre le mobile de moyenne 8 et le mobile des secondes permanentes 9 est égal à l'entraxe entre le mobile de moyenne 8 et le mobile des secondes de chronographe 10.Note that, to obtain the same rotational speed of the mobile seconds permanent 9 and
On notera par ailleurs que le mobile des secondes de chronographe 10 est monté libre en rotation sur un mobile de compteur des secondes de chronographe 17, solidaire d'un organe d'affichage des secondes de chronographe non représenté. Un embrayage vertical 20 disposé entre le mobile des secondes de chronographe et le mobile de compteur des secondes de chronographe 17 permet de solidariser en rotation ces deux mobiles 10, 17 lorsque le chronographe est enclenché. Le mobile de compteur des secondes de chronographe 17 est monté libre en rotation entre un pont de chronographe 21 et un tube de centre 22 chassé dans la platine 3. Ce montage est bien connu de l'homme de métier et ne sera pas décrit plus en détail.Note also that the
On a ainsi décrit une montre chronographe exempte du problème de flottement de l'organe d'affichage des secondes permanentes. Il va de soi que la présente invention n'est pas limitée au mode de réalisation qui vient d'être décrit, et que diverses modifications et variantes simples peuvent être envisagées par l'homme de métier, sans sortir du cadre de la présente invention telle que définie par les revendications annexées.A chronograph watch has thus been described which is free from the problem of floating of the display member of the permanent seconds. It goes without saying that the present invention is not limited to the embodiment which has just been described, and that various modifications and simple variants can be envisaged by those skilled in the art, without departing from the scope of the present invention such as defined by the appended claims.
On notera en particulier que le mode de réalisation de la montre chronographe qui vient d'être décrit, est particulièrement avantageux en raison de sa compacité. Toutefois, dans une première variante de ce mode de réalisation, la deuxième roue de moyenne 16 pourrait être montée sur un mobile intermédiaire distinct du mobile de moyenne, situé entre les mobiles des secondes permanentes 9 et des secondes de chronographe 10, et vérifiant la condition sur les entraxes citée plus haut. Dans ce cas particulier, le mobile de moyenne 8 ne comporterait qu'une première roue de moyenne 15 et ne serait, lui, pas soumis à la condition sur les entraxes susmentionnée. Ce mode de réalisation est équivalent au mode de réalisation décrit précédemment du point de vue fonctionnel, mais il présente un encombrement plus important.It will be noted in particular that the embodiment of the chronograph watch which has just been described, is particularly advantageous because of its compactness. However, in a first variant of this embodiment, the second
On notera également que dans une deuxième variante simple du mode de réalisation décrit, la première roue de moyenne 15 pourrait être en prise avec le mobile des secondes de chronographe 10 plutôt qu'avec le mobile des secondes permanentes 9. L'agencement de la deuxième roue de moyenne 16 serait, par contre, inchangé. Dans ce mode de réalisation, le mobile des secondes de chronographe 10 serait formé d'un pignon uniquement, tandis que le mobile des secondes permanentes 9 comporterait un pignon et une roue, ladite roue engrenant avec le mobile intermédiaire d'échappement 11. La transmission de l'énergie au sein du rouage de finissage 2 ainsi décrit se ferait, depuis le barillet 1 jusqu'à l'organe de distribution non représenté, en passant par le pignon de grande moyenne 12, la roue de grande moyenne 13, le pignon de moyenne 14, la première roue de moyenne 15, le pignon des secondes de chronographe 18, la deuxième roue de moyenne 16, le mobile des secondes permanentes 9 et enfin le mobile intermédiaire d'échappement 11. Ce mode de réalisation est équivalent, du point de vue fonctionnel, au mode de réalisation décrit précédemment.It will also be noted that in a second simple variant of the embodiment described, the first
