Definitions
- the invention relates to a hairspring used to form a pendulum - balance resonator whose curvature allows a substantially immobile center of mass development.
- the documents EP 2 184 652 , EP 2 196 867 and EP 2,105,807 explain how to manufacture curved spirals in micro-machinable materials respectively with three parts, two parts or integrally.
- the document EP 2 104 006 presents a variant of a double monoblock spiral.
- the invention relates to a resonator for a timepiece comprising an inertia such as, for example, a balance characterized in that the inertia cooperates with a hairspring according to one of the previous variants.
- the hairspring is generally adapted so that its variation as a function of the same amplitude is substantially opposite that of the exhaust.
- the spiral is adapted so that its variation is minimal between the four vertical positions.
- a hairspring 1 comprising a first hairspring 3 whose curve extends in a first plane, a second hairspring 5 whose curve extends in a second plane parallel to the foreground .
- Each end of spiral spring 3, 5 being secured by a fastener 4 to form a double spiral in series.
- the curve of the first spiral spring 3 and the curve of the second spiral spring 5 preferably comprise each a continuously variable pitch and are symmetrical with respect to a straight line A parallel to the first and second passing planes. by the centers of the median plane P of projection of the fastener 4 and the axis of the balance.
- the spiral spring 3 comprises a ferrule 6 in one piece and the end of the spiral spring 5, which is opposite the fastener 4, is secured to a stud 7. It has been chosen a pendulum inertia s' raising to 8 mg.cm 2 and a spiral 1 of silicon of a section of 0.0267 mm x 0.1 mm and a length L of 46 mm.
- the result of the simulation illustrated in figure 12 has a very favorable result of 0.3 sj -1 at 300 °. We immediately understand the advantage of these new conditions compared to those including MM. Phillips and Grossmann with whom adjustments are still necessary to reduce the "belly”.
- the attachment can become a non-negligible mass and considerably amplify the anisochronism as visible in the figure 13 in which the gait variation reaches 11.8 sj -1 at 200 °.
- the invention proposes to cancel the unbalance of the fastener by symmetrically relating an unbalance to the two spiral springs 3, 5.
- the reported unbalance is formed by two counterweights 8 ', 9' substantially identical on each spiral spring 3 ', 5' as illustrated in FIGS. Figures 14 and 15 .
- the masses of the counterweights 8 ', 9' are substantially equal and their sum is greater or lesser than that of the fastener 4 'according to the difference in distance between, on the one hand, the fastener 4' and the balance shaft, and, on the other hand, the counterweights 8 ', 9' and said balance shaft. It is understood that in case of substantially equivalent distance, the masses added counterweight 8 ', 9' will form a mass substantially equivalent to that of the fastener 4 '. This advantageously makes it possible to obtain, with the same criteria above, a favorable variation in the path from 1.4 sj -1 to 200 ° as illustrated in FIG. figure 16 .
- 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.
- other framing criteria may be provided such as a limitation of the ratio between the inner radius and the outer radius so that the ends of the spiral springs are not too close to the point of origin where must be present the balance shaft.
- the spiral when the spiral is silicon, it can be at least partially covered with silicon dioxide to make it less sensitive to temperature variations and mechanical shocks.
- each counterweight 8 ', 9' can be different. They can in particular be formed each of two distinct masses that is to say that there could be four counterweights.
