Abstract
Description
L'invention se rapporte à un système de date pour une pièce d'horlogerie et, plus précisément, un tel système comportant un dispositif de correction selon une journée ou une demi-journée.The invention relates to a date system for a timepiece and, more specifically, to such a system comprising a correction device according to a day or a half-day.
Les systèmes de date sont largement répandus en horlogerie. Le plus connu concerne l'affichage du quantième du mois. Les mécanismes actuellement utilisés pour l'affichage du quantième sont du type traînant, instantané ou semi-instantané à l'aide d'une aiguille ou d'un disque. Tous ces mécanismes actuels doivent emmagasiner de l'énergie durant un certain temps afin de la délivrer pour le changement du quantième vers minuit.Date systems are widely used in watchmaking. The best known is the display of the calendar of the month. The mechanisms currently used for displaying the date are trailing, instantaneous or semi-instantaneous using a needle or a disc. All these current mechanisms must store energy for a certain time in order to deliver it for the change of the date around midnight.
Ce mode de fonctionnement occasionne des variations d'amplitude du balancier qui sont néfastes à la marche de la pièce d'horlogerie lors desdites phases d'emmagasinage. De plus, ce mode de fonctionnement induit des accélérations et des chocs de l'aiguille ou du disque qui rendent sensible la mise au point des systèmes de date. Enfin, ces systèmes rendent difficile la correction du quantième à proximité du changement du quantième et obligent à utiliser un dispositif de sécurité sous peine d'endommagement.This operating mode causes variations in amplitude of the balance that are harmful to the running of the timepiece during said storage phases. In addition, this mode of operation induces accelerations and shocks of the needle or disk that make sensitive the development of date systems. Finally, these systems make it difficult to correct the date near the change of the calendar and require the use of a safety device under penalty of damage.
Le but de la présente invention est de pallier tout ou partie les inconvénients cités précédemment en proposant un système de date qui consomme une énergie sensiblement constante au cours de la marche et qui utilise un dispositif de correction simplifié.The object of the present invention is to overcome all or part of the disadvantages mentioned above by proposing a date system that consumes a substantially constant energy during walking and uses a simplified correction device.
A cet effet, l'invention se rapporte à une pièce d'horlogerie comportant un mouvement horloger comprenant un système de mesure du temps destiné à afficher l'heure, un système de date relié audit système de mesure du temps et destiné à afficher la date caractérisée en ce que le système de date comporte un affichage du type à déplacement continu et un dispositif de correction qui permet de corriger à n'importe quel moment, selon un pas prédéterminé, ledit affichage de la date en maintenant le rapport dudit déplacement continu par rapport à celui de ladite heure lors de la manoeuvre de correction.For this purpose, the invention relates to a timepiece comprising a watch movement comprising a time measuring system intended to display the time, a date system connected to said time measuring system and intended to display the date characterized in that the date system comprises a continuous displacement type display and a correction device which makes it possible to correct at any time, in a predetermined step, said date display by maintaining the ratio of said continuous displacement by to that of the said hour during the correction maneuver.
On comprend ainsi que la date n'est plus modifiée autour de minuit mais en continu afin de consommer une énergie constante et rendre les mouvements du balancier sensiblement constants. De plus, un tel système de date comporte moins de pièces et est donc plus simple à construire même avec son dispositif de correction.It is thus understood that the date is no longer modified around midnight but continuously in order to consume a constant energy and make the pendulum movements substantially constant. In addition, such a date system has fewer parts and is therefore easier to build even with its correction device.
Conformément à d'autres caractéristiques avantageuses de l'invention :
- ledit pas prédéterminé est égal à 12 ou 24 heures ;
- le système de date comporte un rouage comprenant une roue menant reliée en permanence au système de mesure du temps par un réducteur afin que ladite roue menant imprime une rotation complète en 31 jours ;
- le rouage du système de date s'engrène avec la roue des heures du système de mesure du temps ;
- le rouage comporte en outre une roue menée entraînant la partie mobile de l'affichage de la date, le dispositif de correction comportant
- said predetermined step is equal to 12 or 24 hours;
- the date system comprises a wheel including a driving wheel permanently connected to the time measuring system by a gear so that said driving wheel prints a complete rotation in 31 days;

- the wheel also comprises a driven wheel driving the moving part of the date display, the correction device comprising
un renvoi relié à la roue menée et des moyens de liaison afin que ladite roue menant entraîne la roue menée en dehors d'une manoeuvre de correction ;
- les moyens de liaison sont formés par une denture du type étoile montée sur la roue menée et associée à un sautoir solidaire de la roue menant afin d'autoriser, lors de l'actionnement du renvoi, le déplacement relatif entre la roue menée et la roue menant sans dérégler le rapport dudit déplacement continu de la roue menant par rapport à celui de ladite heure ;
- la denture du type étoile comporte 62 dents pour ledit pas de 12 heures et, 31 dents, pour le pas de 24 heures ;
- l'affichage de la date est du type à aiguille ou à disque ;
- le système de date affiche au moins le quantième du mois.
- the connecting means are formed by a toothing of the star type mounted on the driven wheel and associated with a jumper integral with the drive wheel to allow, when actuating the return, the relative displacement between the driven wheel and the wheel driving without disrupting the ratio of said continuous displacement of the driving wheel relative to that of said hour;
- the star-type toothing comprises 62 teeth for said 12-hour step and 31 teeth for the 24-hour step;
- the date display is needle or disk type;
- the date system displays at least the day of the month.

Dans l'exemple illustré à la
Le mouvement horloger 5 comporte un système de mesure du temps 11 et un système de date 13. Le système de mesure du temps 11 est destiné à afficher l'heure, c'est-à-dire à entraîner les parties mobiles des moyens d'affichage 2 de l'heure. Dans l'exemple illustré aux
Le système de date 13 est destiné à afficher au moins le quantième du mois, c'est-à-dire à entraîner les parties mobiles des moyens d'affichage 14 de la date. Dans l'exemple illustré aux
Avantageusement selon l'invention, le système de date 13 comporte des moyens d'affichage 14 du type à déplacement continu. Comme illustré aux
De plus, préférentiellement, le système de date 13 comporte un dispositif de correction 12 qui permet de corriger, selon un pas prédéterminé de 12 ou 24h, c'est-à-dire selon une journée ou une demi-journée, et à n'importe quel moment de la journée les moyens d'affichage 14, c'est-à-dire y compris vers minuit, tout en maintenant le rapport du déplacement continu par rapport à celui de l'heure lors de la manoeuvre de correction.In addition, preferably, the
Pour ce faire, le système de date 13 comporte principalement un rouage 15 et, son dispositif de correction 12, des moyens de liaison 17. Comme illustré aux
Dans l'exemple illustré aux
Le dispositif de correction 12 du système de date 13 comporte un renvoi 27 relié à la roue menée 25 par l'intermédiaire d'un pignon 24 solidaire de la partie tubulaire 22. Le dispositif de correction 12 comporte également les moyens de liaison 17 qui sont intercalés entre les roues menant 21 et menée 25 afin de maintenir le rapport du déplacement continu par rapport à celui de l'heure lors de manoeuvres de correction mais également afin que la roue menant 21 entraîne la roue menée 25 en dehors desdites manoeuvres de correction.The
Préférentiellement, comme illustré aux
De plus, avantageusement selon l'invention, le quantième peut être modifié selon un pas prédéterminé de 12 (flèche A) ou 24h (flèche B) comme illustré à la
Le fonctionnement du système de date 13 va maintenant être expliqué. Le système de date 13 fonctionne selon deux modes pouvant avantageusement fonctionner ensemble. Un premier mode d'affichage du quantième qui est permanent et un deuxième mode de correction de l'affichage du quantième qui peut fonctionner en même temps. Dans les deux modes, il est important de noter que les systèmes de date 13 et de mesure du temps 11 sont reliés en permanence afin de garder un rapport constant entre le déplacement continu des moyens d'affichage 14 de la date par rapport à celui des moyens d'affichage 2 de l'heure y compris lors du passage en mode de correction.The operation of the
En mode d'affichage, le système de mesure du temps 11, préférentiellement par sa roue des heures, fournit via le réducteur 23 l'énergie nécessaire à la rotation de la roue menant 21 en 31 jours. Le sautoir 29 est monté solidaire de la roue menant 21 par un axe 28 et par un pivot 30. La roue menant 21 entraîne donc à rotation continue l'ensemble du sautoir 29. L'extrémité du sautoir 29 en contact avec la denture 26 de la roue menée 25 va également entraîner cette dernière selon la même rotation continue et pour faire imprimer à la partie tubulaire 22 et, incidemment, au renvoi 27 respectivement ladite rotation continue et une rotation inverse. Les parties mobiles 16 des moyens d'affichage 14 étant solidaires de la partie tubulaire 22, elles effectuent ladite rotation continue en indiquant l'avancée de la journée pour chaque quantième consécutivement.In display mode, the
Pour passer en mode de correction, l'organe de commande 7 est actionné afin d'agir sur le dispositif de correction 12. L'organe de commande 7 va alors actionner le renvoi 27. Le déplacement de ce dernier transmis par le pignon 24 puis par la partie tubulaire 22 et enfin par la roue menée 25 va forcer les moyens de liaison 17 à se découpler afin d'autoriser un mouvement relatif entre la roue menée 25 et la roue menant 21 dans le but de corriger les moyens d'affichage 14 solidaires de la roue menée 25 sans influencer la rotation continue de la roue menant 21 du mode d'affichage. Avantageusement, dans l'exemple illustré à la
Comme expliqué ci-dessus, de manière avantageuse, suivant le nombre de dents de la denture 26, chaque dent passée par la sautoir 29 permet de corriger selon un pas prédéterminé de 12 ou 24h comme illustré à la
Bien entendu, la présente invention ne se limite pas à l'exemple illustré mais est susceptible de diverses variantes et modifications qui apparaîtront à l'homme de l'art.Of course, the present invention is not limited to the illustrated example but is susceptible of various variations and modifications that will occur to those skilled in the art.
En particulier, comme illustré à la
L'organe de commande 7 du dispositif de correction 12 du système de date 13 peut ne pas être le même que pour le dispositif de correction 10 du système de mesure du temps 11 et peut, de manière équivalente, être un poussoir ou une couronne.The
Les moyens de liaisons 17 ne sont pas limités à ceux du type denture étoile 26 et sautoir 29 et peuvent être remplacés, par exemple, par des moyens de liaison du type croix de Malte et doigt de correction.The connection means 17 are not limited to those of the type of
Enfin, le système de date 13 ne saurait se limiter à l'affichage du quantième. D'autres indications comme, par exemple, le jour, le mois, l'année, le numéro de semaine et/ou la phase de lune peuvent également être affichées.Finally, the
