Definitions
- the present invention relates to a timepiece comprising a mechanical clockwork movement, a first and a second separate boxes, said movement comprising first and second parts respectively housed in the first and second boxes, said boxes being interconnected with each other. articulated manner in rotation by means of a hinge defining a pivot axis so as to be able to form between them a variable angle, said part further comprising a control device arranged to transmit information from one to the other of the parts some movement.
- Mechanical means a movement comprising moving parts, driven by a spring or an electric motor.
- Such a piece is for example described in the patent application EP 1 513 031 .
- the two boxes are pivoted relative to each other about a pivot axis substantially perpendicular to the plane of the boxes, so that the two boxes slide on one another when they are displaced.
- the upper box is rotated relative to the lower box to discover at least a portion of the front face.
- the disadvantage of such a construction is that the lower box always remains at least partially hidden by the upper box. This makes it necessary to position the display means on the lower box eccentrically so that they are always visible, and therefore to provide specific parts.
- the information is transmitted from one box to another by means of a rod rotating about an axis coinciding with that of the hinge.
- a timepiece comprising a first reversible watch case according to two service positions, enclosing a clockwork movement, a second watch case comprising an additional mechanism, and a mechanical pulse control device contained in the first watch case.
- the elements of this control device are arranged in the space between the two boxes, space in which can introduce dust, which can affect the operation of the room.
- the device comprises a rocker ensuring the transmission between the two boxes, the rocker being positioned in a groove of the cradle in which is mounted the additional mechanism.
- the latch no longer cooperates with the movement and transmission of the information of movement to the additional module is no longer assured. It is therefore mandatory that the first box is in one of its service positions at midnight, when the movement gives a pulse to the date module to update all the date information. If the first box is in an open position relative to the second box, the update will not be done. In addition, the transmission of information at a higher frequency than once a day could lead to serious delays, detrimental to the accuracy of the additional mechanism.
- An object of the present invention is therefore to overcome these disadvantages, by providing a timepiece in which the information is always transmitted from one to the other parts of the movement, regardless of the position of the boxes. one compared to the other.
- a timepiece comprising a mechanical clockwork movement, a first and a second separate boxes, said movement comprising first and second parts respectively housed in the first and second boxes, said boxes being interconnected in rotationally articulated manner by means of a hinge defining a pivot axis so as to form between them a variable angle, said part further comprising a control device arranged to transmit a information from one to the other parts of the movement.
- control device comprises at least one rod slidably mounted in said hinge along an axis substantially parallel to said pivot axis and cooperating with the first and second parts of the watch movement to thus ensure the transmission of information from one to the other parts of the movement, by a linear and alternating movement, whatever the relative position of the two boxes.
- the boxes can define reference planes, the hinge being arranged to be able to pivot about an axis substantially parallel to said planes.
- the hinge is provided with a housing extending parallel to the axis of the hinge.
- control device may further comprise first actuating means cooperating on the one hand with components of one of the first and second parts and secondly with the rod, and second means actuator cooperating on the one hand with the rod and on the other hand with components of the other part of the movement, said first and second actuating means being respectively arranged to move said rod regardless of the relative position of the two boxes.
- the first actuating means may comprise a cam cooperating on the one hand with a wheel of one of the first and second parts of the movement and on the other hand with a first lever arranged to cooperate with the stem regardless of the relative position of the two boxes.
- the rod may comprise at one of its ends a first circular groove and said first lever may comprise, at its end facing the rod, a finger engaged in said first circular groove and able to circulate around said first circular groove.
- the second actuating means may comprise a second lever arranged to cooperate on the one hand with components of the other part of the movement and on the other hand with the rod whatever the relative position of the two boxes.
- the rod may comprise, at its other end, a second circular groove and said second lever may comprise, at its end opposite the rod, a finger engaged in said second circular groove and able to circulate around said second groove circular.
- control device may comprise a return member arranged to return the rod to its initial position when the information has been transmitted from one to the other parts of the movement.
- the hinge comprises, in its housing, a sheath in which the rod can move axially.
- a timepiece 1 comprising two boxes 2 and 3 hinged relative to each other by means of a hinge 4.
- the first box 2 comprises, in a traditional manner, a middle part 5 closed by a ice, and contains a first part of a conventional mechanical clockwork, having a dial 6 and a switch 7 for displaying the hour and minute.
- the first box 2 defines a first reference plane.
- the second box 3 comprises a middle part 8 closed on each side by an ice, and encloses a second part of the movement, namely a two-sided mechanical date module comprising, on either side of the second boot 3, a needle 9a and an upper dial 10a and a needle 9b and a lower dial 10b for displaying the date. It is obvious that the first and second parts may contain components having other functions.
- the second box 3 defines a second reference plane.
- Each box 2, 3, has respectively a tab 12a, 12b protruding from the edge corresponding to its rear end, the two tabs 12a, 12b being arranged at the opposite ends of the boxes 2 and 3.
- the hinge element 13a is screwed to the middle part of the box 2 by means of screws 17a, while the element of hinge 13b is screwed to the middle 8 of the box 3 by means of screws 17b.
- the box 5 blocks the element 13b by its leg 12a while the box 8 blocks the element 13a by its leg 12b.
- Flanges 24a, 24b are provided on the side edges of the boxes 2 and 3 and have ends that constitute horns for fixing a bracelet.
- the boxes 2, 3 are articulated in rotation by means of the hinge 4 and can occupy the closed position in which the two boxes 2, 3 are superimposed, as shown in FIG. figure 1 , or an open position, according to which the boxes 2, 3 form between them a non-zero angle, as represented on the figure 2 .
- the hinge 4 is arranged so as to pivot about an axis substantially parallel to said reference planes.
- the hinge 4 comprises a housing 14 extending parallel to the axis of said hinge 4.
- Said housing 14 contains a control device arranged to transmit, to the date module housed in the second box 3, information is in this example, a pulse controlling a change of date, delivered by components of the first part of the clockwork movement housed in the first box 2.
- the control device comprises a rod 15 slidably mounted in a sheath 16 engaged in the hinge elements 13a, 13b.
- the rod 15 is arranged to move in the axial direction between an initial position and a final position in the housing 14 of the hinge 4, depending on the advance of the day.
- the rod 15 comprises, at its first end a removable tip 18, for example by screwing, allowing the introduction of the rod 15 in the sheath 16 in order to put it in place.
- the tip 18 is of greater diameter than that of the rod 15, and also makes it possible to abut against the sheath 16.
- the hinge elements 13a, 13b are mounted on each side of the assembly.
- the hinge elements 13a, 13b containing the sheath 16 and the rod 15 are then introduced between the tabs 12a, 13b of the boxes 2 and 3 and screwed, as described above.
- the tip 18 comprises, on its outer periphery, a circular groove 19, whose function will be described later.
- the second end 20 of the rod 15 also has a diameter greater than that of the rod 15 so as to abut against the sheath 16.
- the second end 20 comprises, on its outer periphery, a circular groove 21 whose function will be described later .
- the cam 22 cooperates with the components of the first part of the movement, for example a date wheel 25, so that the cam 22 is arranged to make a turn in 24 hours.
- the cam 22 cooperates with a stud 26 provided at one end of the first lever 23 so as to pivot the first lever 23 about its axis 23a until the cam 22 reaches its high position.
- Oblong holes 27, 28 are provided in the middle 5 of the first box 2 and then in the hinge element 13a, respectively, allowing the passage of the first lever 23.
- the other end of the first lever 23 comprises a finger 30 capable of circulate around the groove 19 provided in the tip 18 of the rod 15, regardless of the position of the first box 2.
- a second lever 32 pivotally mounted about an axis 32a integral with the frame of the second part of the movement, and constituting the second actuating means.
- An oblong hole is provided in the middle 8 of the second box 3
- another oblong hole 33 is provided opposite in the hinge element 13b, allowing the passage of the second lever 32.
- the second lever 32 At its end on the side of the rod 15, the second lever 32 comprises a finger 34 capable of circulating around the groove 21 of the end 20 of the rod 15 regardless of the position of the second box 3.
- the second lever 32 has a spout 36 arranged to cooperate with a toothed date wheel 38 of the date module.
- a return spring 40 is provided connecting the second lever 32 to the rod 15, allowing the return of the second lever 32 and the rod 15 in their initial position when the cam 22 has exceeded its maximum position and the first lever 23 has returned in its initial position.
- lever 32 when it is provided with the spring 40, could simply bear against the end of the rod 15 rather than having to be engaged in the groove 21.
- the rod 15 occupies its initial position.
- the cam 22 pivots about its axis 22a and drives the stud 26 of the first lever 23 so as to pivot the first lever 23 counterclockwise.
- the pivoting of the first lever 23 causes an axial displacement of the rod 15 to the left on the figure 4 and an axial displacement of the finger 34 of the second lever 32 so that the second lever 32 pivots in turn, in the clockwise direction, approaching the date wheel 38 of the date module.
- the control device makes it possible to give a pulse to the date wheel of the date module, this pulse advancing said date wheel by one step per day, the date change information coming from the first part of the movement, which whatever the position of the boxes.
- the two boxes can be superimposed, as illustrated in the drawings, but they could also be juxtaposed, similarly to two links of bracelets, or more than two.
- the transmission of information is not dependent on the relative position of the two boxes, the frequency of transmission between them, information can be much higher, or every hour for example, or even every minute.
- the first and second parts of the movement can have many different functions. It may include a second part displaying another time zone, or providing a wake up function for example, the first part corresponding to a basic movement. It would also be possible to display only the time using the second part of the movement, while the information relating to the second and the minute would appear on the basic movement corresponding to the first part.
- the hinge can advantageously be provided with seals, which avoids deterioration of the constituent parts of the watch housed inside the boxes.
- the rod 15 is controlled by means of a lever 23, itself driven by a cam. It is obvious that other actuating means can be envisaged to obtain reciprocating movement, for example a connecting rod or an exhaust system. This last solution is particularly well suited in the case where the energy source and the time base are not in the same box. It is also possible to provide a toothed sector animated by an alternating linear movement cooperating with different grooves formed on the rod.
- Bearings made of material with a low coefficient of friction, for example ruby, could be driven into the sheath 16, in order to reduce the friction of the rod 15 in its displacements.
- lever 32 could also be modified and inverted with respect to the variant described, moving it away from the wheel 38 by the action of the cam 22 on the lever 23, the spring 40 bringing the spout 36 against the wheel 38 to advance a step when the cam 22 exceeds its upper position.
- the information is transmitted from one box to another by a single rod. It is also possible to envisage a double transmission, for example by means of a sheath and a coaxial rod, and arranged in the housing that includes the hinge. In the case where the relative amplitude of the boxes on the hinge is small, it would also be It is possible to transmit the information by means of several rods arranged in contiguous and parallel housings, typically two, three or even four rods.
