Description
L'invention concerne un module musical pour une montre, qui est muni d'un substrat mobile portant des organes d'activation et d'au moins un clavier à lames susceptibles d'être activées par les organes d'activation dans un mode de fonctionnement du module musical.The invention relates to a musical module for a watch, which is provided with a mobile substrate carrying activation members and at least one blade keyboard that can be activated by the activation members in an operating mode. of the musical module.
De manière à équiper une montre d'un module musical, il est nécessaire de réduire la taille de tous les composants du module musical tout en offrant une mélodie variée, un son de bonne qualité et de niveau acoustique élevé. Dans le document de brevet
Dans le module musical présenté dans le document de brevet
L'invention a donc pour but de fournir un module musical pour une montre permettant de pallier aux inconvénients de l'état de la technique susmentionné.The invention therefore aims to provide a musical module for a watch to overcome the disadvantages of the state of the art mentioned above.
A cet effet, l'invention concerne un module musical pour une montre, comprenant les caractéristiques, qui sont définies dans la revendication indépendante 1.To this end, the invention relates to a musical module for a watch, comprising the features, which are defined in the
Des formes d'exécution particulières du module musical sont définies dans les revendications dépendantes 2 à 16.Particular embodiments of the musical module are defined in
Un avantage du module musical réside dans le fait que le substrat comprend un ensemble de goupilles, dont la hauteur peut être variable d'une goupille à l'autre de manière à activer plus ou moins fortement des lames du clavier lorsque le substrat est en mouvement. Ainsi l'intensité sonore peut généralement être ajustée en fonction de la hauteur de chaque goupille, car cela modifie la levée de la lame du clavier à activer. De préférence, le clavier est constitué d'un ensemble de lames, qui sont fixées à une extrémité à un talon et sont disposées généralement parallèlement l'une par rapport à l'autre dans un même plan.An advantage of the musical module lies in the fact that the substrate comprises a set of pins, the height of which can be variable from one pin to the other so as to activate the blades of the keyboard more or less strongly when the substrate is moving. . Thus the loudness can generally be adjusted according to the height of each pin, as it modifies the lifting of the blade of the keyboard to activate. Preferably, the keyboard consists of a set of blades, which are fixed at one end to a bead and are arranged generally parallel to each other in the same plane.
Un autre avantage du module musical réside dans le fait qu'une optimisation du couple consommé du module musical peut être obtenue en modifiant la levée de lames à activer du clavier. Ceci peut être important du fait que les lames susceptibles de générer des sons aigus consomment un couple plus important que les lames susceptibles de générer des sons graves pour une même levée de la lame.Another advantage of the musical module lies in the fact that an optimization of the consumed torque of the musical module can be obtained by modifying the lifting of blades to activate the keyboard. This may be important because the blades that can generate high-pitched sounds consume a greater amount of torque than the blades that can generate serious sounds for the same lifting of the blade.
Grâce à l'agencement des goupilles à hauteur différente sur le substrat, qui peut être un disque rotatif ou un cylindre rotatif, il est possible d'alterner des passages musicaux allant d'une intensité faible (pianissimo) à une forte intensité (fortissimo). De plus, il est également possible d'ajuster facilement le niveau sonore avec cet agencement de goupilles à hauteur différente à l'oreille humaine avec par exemple des notes aigues moins perçantes.Thanks to the arrangement of the pins at different height on the substrate, which can be a rotating disk or a rotating cylinder, it is possible to alternate musical passages ranging from a low intensity (pianissimo) to a high intensity (fortissimo) . In addition, it is also possible to easily adjust the sound level with this arrangement of pins at different height to the human ear with eg sharp notes less piercing.

figure 3 represents a three-dimensional partial view of a pin-shaped disk-shaped substrate for the musical module according to the invention.
Dans la description suivante, toutes les parties bien connues du module musical de la montre, telle qu'une montre-bracelet, ne seront décrites que sommairement.In the following description, all the well-known parts of the musical module of the watch, such as a wristwatch, will be described only briefly.
La
Le module musical comprend encore au moins un substrat 10 sous la forme d'un cylindre ou d'un disque réalisé dans un matériau métallique ou céramique ou plastique. Le cylindre ou le disque 10 comprend plusieurs organes d'activation, qui sont préférentiellement des goupilles 11 pour activer respectivement un certain nombre de lames afin de produire une musique. Comme représenté de manière plus détaillée sur les
Pour l'activation des lames par les goupilles 11 du disque denté 10, une extrémité libre de chaque lame 3 comprend encore un élément 4 sous forme de came, qui définit une rampe. La rampe définit de préférence une pente d'angle aigu par rapport à l'extrémité libre de la lame 3. Chaque goupille 11 du disque denté 10 peut venir en contact de la rampe de la came 4 de chaque lame 3 à activer, lors de la rotation dans la direction r du disque denté 10. Le disque denté peut être entraîné en rotation par une roue dentée du module musical non représentée. L'axe de rotation du disque denté 10, qui porte l'ensemble des goupilles 11, peut être disposé de manière perpendiculaire au plan des lames 3 et à une distance initialement adaptée.For the activation of the blades by the
En venant en contact de la rampe de la came 4 d'une des lames 3 à activer, la goupille 11 soulève ou fléchit la lame correspondante lors de son déplacement dans la direction de l'extrémité libre de la lame. Une fois que la goupille 11 s'est déplacée au-delà de ladite came 4, la lame 3 est relâchée pour la mettre en vibration pour la génération d'une note spécifique fonction de la longueur de la lame 3. Selon l'agencement des goupilles 11 sur le disque denté 10, au moins certaines lames 3 peuvent être successivement activées pour produire une musique spécifique.By coming into contact with the ramp of the
Chaque lame 3 du clavier peut être d'une forme rectiligne avec une section transversale rectangulaire ou circulaire ou autre, qui peut être identique sur toute la longueur de la lame. Cependant la section transversale peut également varier progressivement ou de manière discontinue le long de la longueur de chaque lame 3.Each
Toutes les lames 3 du clavier 1 peuvent être dimensionnées de manière à produire généralement chacune une note différente, lorsqu'elles sont activées. Cependant il peut être prévu également d'avoir certains groupes de deux lames ou plus, qui sont susceptibles de produire une même note particulière comme il peut être vu sur la
A la
Le disque denté 10 est mis en rotation autour d'un axe perpendiculaire à l'ensemble des lames 3. Lors du fonctionnement du module musical, les goupilles 11 du disque en regard des lames 3 se déplacent dans une direction depuis le talon 2 vers l'extrémité libre des lames 3. La hauteur h1, h2, h3 des différentes goupilles est variable, c'est-à-dire que la hauteur de certaines goupilles peut être adaptée en fonction de l'intensité sonore plus ou moins forte à produire lors de l'activation de certaines lames 3. Selon un arrangement musical donné, il peut être joué des passages allant du pianissimo à fortissimo. Le niveau sonore peut aussi être ajusté à l'oreille humaine, afin que des notes aigues, générées par certaines lames activées, soient moins perçantes.The
Comme montré schématiquement sur cette
Lorsqu'une des goupilles 11 vient en contact avec la came 4 d'une lame 3 correspondante à activer, cette lame est soulevée comme montré en traits interrompus sur la
Il est également à noter que l'adaptation de l'intensité sonore et la vibration des lames 3 est avantageusement transmise à des pièces d'habillage de la montre pour un bon rayonnement acoustique du son produit. Il peut aussi être prévu de monter plusieurs disques 10 ou cylindres à goupilles 11 sur la platine, si plusieurs ensembles de lames sont fixés depuis différentes surfaces latérales du talon 2.It should also be noted that the adaptation of the sound intensity and the vibration of the
A partir de la description qui vient d'être faite, plusieurs variantes du module musical pour une montre peuvent être conçues par l'homme du métier sans sortir du cadre de l'invention définie par les revendications. La forme de chaque lame du clavier peut ne pas être rectiligne, mais définir au moins une courbe. Les lames de forme curviligne peuvent être disposées de manière coaxiale autour d'un cylindre à goupilles, ou éventuellement d'une boule à goupilles. Les lames du clavier peuvent être fixées de manière amovible au talon pour pouvoir changer une ou plusieurs lames en fonction de la musique à produire. La hauteur de chaque goupille sur le disque ou le cylindre peut être adaptée notamment par l'intermédiaire d'une vis dans un filetage dans le disque ou cylindre. La came à chaque extrémité libre des lames peut présenter une surface d'appui sous forme curviligne ou une autre forme différente d'une rampe rectiligne.From the description that has just been given, several variants of the musical module for a watch can be designed by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the invention defined by the claims. The shape of each keyboard blade may not be straight, but define at least one curve. The blades of curvilinear shape can be arranged coaxially around a pin cylinder, or possibly a ball pin. The keyboard blades can be removably attached to the heel to be able to change one or more blades depending on the music to be produced. The height of each pin on the disk or the cylinder can be adapted in particular by means of a screw in a thread in the disk or cylinder. The cam at each free end of the blades may have a bearing surface in curvilinear shape or another form different from a rectilinear ramp.
