Definitions

  • the invention relates to a racket key, arranged to be driven on a rack of adjustment of a watch winder which is arranged to be pivotally mounted relative to an axis parallel to the pivot axis of said balance or confused with he, said racket key, having, parallel to one another in one direction and spaced apart by a distance, two pins bearings; arranged to limit the radial flapping of such a spiral inserted between them, and polished for a minimum frictional support of such a spiral, said racket key having bearing means on such a racket arranged for, in position of mounting said racket key on a said racket, adjust said direction of said pin seats, parallel to said pivot axis of said racket.
  • the invention further relates to a rack of adjustment of a watch winder which is arranged to be pivotally mounted relative to an axis parallel to the pivot axis of said spiral or coincident with it, including such a racket key.
  • the invention further relates to a setting assembly for a watch movement, comprising at least one spiral pivoting about a pivot axis, and held by such a racket key or such a racket.
  • the invention also relates to a watch movement comprising at least one such regulating assembly.
  • the invention also relates to a timepiece comprising at least one such watch movement.
  • the hairspring relies on one of the pins, its active length is that between its attachment to the ferrule on the one hand, and its support on the pin on the other hand. If the hairspring is not supported on any of the pins, its active length is equal to its total length. If the pins are widely spaced, it creates delay, and the amplitude of variation is important, which is not favorable for a regular walk. If they are too close together, we create a lead, and there is a risk of deformation of the hairspring, which is worse.
  • the operator can not visualize the relative positions of the hairspring and pins is forced to proceed by trial and error, or to use empirical settings, for example adjust the pins, when the pendulum is at rest, so that the hairspring is centered with respect to the pins, with a game of half a thickness of spiral on both sides. But, like any empirical setting, it does not represent an optimization of the operation, but only a setting which it is agreed to consider as acceptable. In addition, such positioning is theoretical, and difficult to achieve, because of the impossibility of introducing gauges or the like to adjust this spacing.
  • a patent document CH408787 in the name of Vuachet describes a racket key, which is constituted by a V-folded plate, supported by rims above a radial light that includes a racket.
  • This plate has a slot for the passage of the spring, the edges of this slot acting as pins for the delimitation of the beating of the spiral spring. The operator can see the hairspring through the radial light of the racket, but can not apprehend its position with respect to the edges of the slot, which are masked by the structure of the plate, and which are not visible through the racket light.
  • the patent document CH40792 Beyner discloses a racket that has two movable fingers that enclose the spiral. The latter is visible from above between the two fingers, however it is not a mobile racket key, but a racket body with a fixed position, apart from its pivoting relative to the axis of the spiral, and it is not possible to act on the relative angular position between the pins and the spring.
  • the invention proposes to overcome the problems of the prior art by proposing a simple and economical solution allowing a good visualization by an operator of the respective positions of the spiral spring and the racket pins, during centering and adjustment of the spiral flap. , and thus position the latter accurately.
  • the invention relates to a racket key, arranged to be driven on a rack of adjustment of a watch winder which is arranged to be pivotally mounted relative to an axis parallel to the pivot axis of said spiral or merged with him, said racket key, comprising, parallel to one another in one direction and spaced apart by a distance, two pins of pins; arranged to limit the radial flapping of such a spiral inserted between them, and polished for a minimum frictional support of such a spiral, said racket key having bearing means on such a racket arranged for, in position of mounting said racket key on a said racket, adjusting said direction of said pin seats, parallel to said pivot axis of said racket, characterized in that said racket key comprises a viewing port in a direction parallel to said direction of said staves pins, said opening being cleared to allow visualization by an operator or an optical instrument of said pins, and the portion of a spiral inserted between them at a distance and
  • said racket key comprises, in the alignment of said orifice, means for receiving an optical instrument, or a magnifying optical instrument, or a son-counter.
  • the invention also relates to a rack of adjustment of a watch winder which is arranged to be pivotally mounted relative to an axis parallel to the pivot axis of said spiral or coincident with it, comprising such a racket key, characterized in that said racket key is driven on said racket so that said direction is parallel to said axis.
