Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a timepiece movement comprising a carousel formed of a platform carrying an escape wheel and an anchor cooperating with a balance spring, a finishing gear engaged with a crown wheel carried by a cylinder, and a time display mechanism derived from said work train, this display mechanism being associated with a time setting mechanism.
  • a carousel of a timepiece is a regulating system generally composed of a conventional assortment and a pendulum as shown for example in the book "Theory of Watchmaking" of C.-A. Reymondin et al. (FET, CH-1347 The Path, 1998, pages 167 and 168 ).
  • These elements are placed on a platform serving as a base and which pivots between a deck bridge and a deck.
  • the platform works as a second mobile. It is secured to a second gear and driven by a medium wheel.
  • the role of the exhaust is conventional. The force is transmitted from an exhaust pinion which meshes, in the manner of a satellite, with a second fixed wheel secured to the plate.
  • the axis of the balance is at a distance from the axis of the platform and a first side of this axis, while the axis of the escape wheel is at a certain distance from the axis of the platform but a second side of this axis, opposite the first.
  • the document CH 7965 describes a carousel in which the axis of the balance is coaxial with the axis of rotation of the turntable.
  • the conventional carousel that has just been described is generally mounted in a timepiece comprising a finishing gear which is engaged with a crown wheel carried by a barrel.
  • this known movement includes a time display mechanism which is derived from the work train, this display mechanism being associated with a time setting mechanism.
  • the movement of the present invention also comprises a carousel with the advantage described above to automatically compensate for differences in travel due to the gravity that is exerted on the sprung balance of the timepiece. On top of that, this movement intends to make the carousel platform play a new role: that of time indicator.
  • the present invention relates to a watch movement according to claim 1 of the patent.
  • the movement of the timepiece 1 comprises a carousel 4.
  • This carousel is formed of a platform 5 carrying an escape wheel 6 cooperating with a balance spring 7.
  • a finishing gear 31 is engaged with a crown wheel 17 carried by a barrel 18 as can be seen on the figure 3 .
  • the movement further includes a time display mechanism 37 derived from the work train 31, which mechanism is associated with a time setting mechanism 30, as shown in FIG. figure 5 .
  • a mechanism for displaying the time will be described in detail below.
  • first means are implemented to drive the platform 5 from the time display mechanism 37.
  • This is fundamentally new. Indeed, if we want to play the carousel 4 a role of time indicator in addition to the one that consists in a conventional way to correct the errors of travel due to gravity, as mentioned above, it is It is necessary to be able to set the indicator at the same time as the indicators or hour hands 2 and minutes 3 are set. This does not occur in the conventional carousel where the platform is driven. by the finishing gear which is foreign to the time display mechanism 37. In fact in the present invention the platform 5 is driven by the display gear linked to the indicator hands of the time.
  • finishing gear means all the wheels and gears which, from the barrel 18, transmit the driving force to the escape wheel 6.
  • the time display mechanism 37 used here is not new. It comprises a clock wheel or hour wheel 9 carrying a flag or hour hand 2 - see figure 1 - and a roadway 10 carrying an indicator or minute hand 3 - see figure 1 .
  • the gun wheel 9 and the roadway 10 are connected kinematically by a timer wheel 8.
  • the mobile timer 8 comprises a first pinion 13 engaged with the barrel wheel 9. This mobile also comprises a wheel 14 engaged with the road 10.
  • the timer 8 carries a second pinion 15 which is new and which is arranged to drive a toothing 16 which is integral with the platform 5 and which is disposed at its periphery, as shown on the figures 3 , 6 and 7 .
  • the timer mobile 8 is associated with the time setting mechanism 30.
  • the latter is composed inter alia and in a known manner of a time-setting rod 32 - which is also the winding stem -, a winding pinion 33, a sliding pinion 34, a first timer return 35 and a second timer return 36 which is engaged with the timer wheel 8 by the meshing of a pinion 38 with the wheel 14 of the timer 8.
  • the platform 5 is pivotally mounted on the plate 39 that has the timepiece 1. As shown in FIG. figure 3 , on one side of the platform a gun 40 is driven into said platform 5. This gun penetrates a stone 41 secured to the plate 39, stone in which the barrel can rotate. On the other of its sides, the platform 5 carries a bridge 28 of balance 7 which in turn carries a pivot 42 rotating in a stone 43 carried by a bridge 44 fixed on the plate 39.
  • the escape wheel 6 is located at the center of rotation of the platform 5. This wheel 6 is carried by a shaft 21 passing through the barrel 40.
  • the shaft 21 pivots firstly in a stone 45 carried by the pivot 42 and secondly in a stone 47 carried by a gear wheel 46.
  • the escapement wheel 6 cooperates directly with an anchor - not shown in the drawing - whose fork cooperates with an ankle 48 plate, the latter being carried by the shaft 27 of the balance 7.
  • the shaft 27 of the balance 7 pivots on the one hand in the platform 5 and on the other hand in the balance bridge 28, the latter serving, as will be seen further from a twenty-four hour indicator.
  • a center pinion 11 in direct contact with the crown wheel 17 carried by the barrel 18.
  • the center pinion 11 is provided with a center wheel 12 which is engaged with a gear train 19 which in turn drives the escape wheel 6 and this via a pinion 20 carried by the shaft 21 on which is fitted said exhaust wheel 6.
  • the gear train 19 is composed of several mobile pivoting firstly in the plate 39 and secondly in the gear bridge 46 mentioned above.
  • the invention is not limited to a finishing gear including a center pinion.
  • the finishing gear train should include a pinion of medium and a wheel of average before the attack of the second pinion.
  • the transmission ratio resulting from the meshing of the second pinion 15 of the timer wheel 8 on the toothing 16 of the platform 5 is chosen so that the platform 5 makes a turn in twenty-five hours. four hours.
  • the balance bridge is thus used as a twenty-four hour hand moving in front of marks affixed to the dial or the timepiece box.
  • the platform 5 can be surmounted by a decoration 22 from which emerges the pendulum 7. As shown in FIG. figure 1 this decoration 22 may appear partially through at least one opening 23 made at twelve o'clock in the dial 24 of the timepiece 1.
  • the figures 1 , 4 and 6 show again that the platform 5 and its decoration 22 show through the opening 23 of the dial 24 the day and night periods of the day.
  • the pendulum 7 represents the sun, which is the daytime period of the day.
  • the opposite part of the pendulum is on the decoration 22 a moon 25 and stars 26 which represent the night period of the day.
  • one embodiment of the invention proposes to locate the escape wheel 6 at the center of rotation of the platform 5 which is not the use of known carousels where the balance and the escape wheel oppose diametrically.
  • a centered escape wheel results in an enlargement of the diameter of the platform which is favorable from an aesthetic point of view of the timepiece, especially if it is a shaped piece having an oval configuration.
