Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a timepiece control device comprising a control rod that can be actuated in rotation and in traction, and at least one push button, close to the control rod.
  • the control rod comprises a first locking system in rotation and traction provided with a locking ring rotatably mounted with reference to the control rod and about the axis defined by the latter, said first locking system being able to occupy a locked position, in which the rotation and / or traction of the control rod is blocked.
  • the document FR1471802 proposes a pusher equipped with a ring screwed to the periphery of the pusher and able to be moved longitudinally with reference to the pusher.
  • the ring can be positioned so as to abut against the middle part of the watch and thus prevent any actuation of the pusher.
  • the document EP1280023 discloses a locking system of a winding stem by means of a compression wrench screwed onto the tube which passes through the box through a bore formed therein.
  • the present invention aims to provide an improved system for securing the control members of a watch, particularly for diving in great depths.
  • the invention relates to a control device for locking in rotation and in traction a control rod according to claim 1.
  • the figure 1 illustrates a timepiece control device according to a preferred embodiment of the invention.
  • This device comprises a control rod that can be actuated in rotation and in traction.
  • This control rod is typically a winding stem, capable of occupying several axial positions, and allowing the user to arm a mainspring energizing the movement and adjust the display of various time information.
  • the winding stem comprises, conventionally, a ring 1 mounted in tension on a tube 9, the latter passing through a middle of a watch case, via an opening in which it is fixed rigidly and sealingly.
  • the ring 1 is integrally arranged with a cap 2.
  • a threaded pin 14 is kinematically connected, on the one hand to the movement and, on the other hand, to the ring via a pinched tube 6 and a spring 3. This connection does not part of the invention and being known to those skilled in the art, it will not be described in detail.
  • the periphery of the tube 9 comprises, consecutively to the part intended to receive the cap 2, on the opposite side to the ring 1, a portion provided with a male-like shape structure 42.
  • this form structure male type 42 may be a toothing. It is fixed with reference to the device or the watch case when the device is assembled.
  • a stitched ring 13 is mounted on this portion.
  • the stitched ring 13 has, at its inside diameter, a female-type shape structure 44, of shape and size corresponding to the male-like shape structure 42.
  • the correspondence of the shape structures 42 and 44 allows a displacement relative translation in translation of the stitched ring 13, while serving as guide means thereof.
  • the dimensions of the shape structure 44 are defined with reference to the position of the cap 2 and the dimensions of the portion provided with the structure 42, so that the stitched ring 13 can move in translation along a predefined stroke.
  • the stitched ring 13 comprises, in addition to the female-type shape structure 44, an annular zone 46 of greater diameter than the structure 44, these two parts being connected by a shoulder 48.
  • the annular zone 46 ends, at its free end, with a flank 50 of generally frustoconical shape, narrowing toward the crown.
  • a flank 50 of generally frustoconical shape, narrowing toward the crown.
  • this sidewall is formed a plurality of through openings, typically of circular shape, in each of which takes place a ball 5, typically made of steel or other equivalent material, for example ceramic.
  • the balls 5 are thus housed in these openings, and cooperate on the one hand with compartments 39, visible on the figure 8 and made in the wall of the cap 2, and dimensioned to accommodate each a single ball 5.
  • the compartments 39 have an oblong shape allowing the balls 5 to have a game along the longitudinal axis with reference to the compartments, between positions in which the center of the balls is located at the points referenced 64 or 66.
  • the balls 5 cooperate with a frustoconical rim 52 of a bearing ring 11, the direction of which is oriented so as to direct the balls 5 towards the compartments 39.
  • the support ring 11 is mounted integral with a locking ring 8 which will be described in detail below. Its inside diameter is slightly more large than the outside diameter of the stitched ring 13, so that, in its translational movements mentioned above, the stitched ring 13 moves inside the locking ring 8. As will be detailed below, it is already understood that the translational movements of the stitched ring 13 can induce a pressure of the balls 5 in their housing.
  • the support ring 11 is thus mounted integral with the locking ring 8.
  • the latter comprises a gripping zone at its periphery, formed for example by raised striations. It is rotatably mounted on the tube 9.
  • the locking ring 8 comprises a series of variations of inner diameter, in order to adapt to the shape of the stitched ring 13, while participating in guiding the movements of the latter. Between zones of different diameters, the locking ring 8 has flanges, one of which 54 is particularly located opposite the shoulder of the stitched ring.
  • the locking ring 8 comprises, on the upper face of the flange 54, that is to say on its face on the side of the ring, a plurality of studs 7 projecting. These are intended to cooperate with a first cam path 56 located on the underside of the shoulder 48 of the stitched ring 13.
  • the first cam path 56 has at least a first and a second level.
  • the first cam path 56 comprises as many first and second level successions as the locking ring 8 comprises studs 7. These are angularly distributed so as to co-operate in a coordinated manner with either the first level or the second level. the cam path.
  • level is meant surfaces located at different distances from the box when the control device is mounted. The transition between the levels is preferably progressively.
  • the pads 7 are in free support on the first cam path 56.
  • the pads 7 slide on the first cam path 56 and thus press on the stitched ring 13.
  • the latter then moves in translation, guided by the cooperation of the male-shaped structures 42 and female 44.
  • This has the advantage of avoiding rotating the crown.
  • the balls 5 play the role of friction member and are thus pressed into their housing and particularly against the cap 2 and its compartments 39. This pressure creates a strong friction on the cap and, indirectly, on the ring 1, which is immobilized.
  • the ring 1 may have a slight clearance in the direction of a pressure translation.
  • the center of the balls is located at point 66, allowing a slight clearance to point 64.
  • the crown is immobilized in tension.
  • the crown is also immobilized in rotation. This defines a first locking system in rotation and traction of the control rod. It will be noted that, by adapting the shape of the compartments 39, the ring 1 could be completely locked in both directions of translation, that is to say in pressure and in tension.
  • the locking ring 8 may comprise a second cam path 58 on its underside, that is to say on its face, when the control device is mounted on the side of the watch case.
  • this second cam path 58 has at least a first and a second level, the utility of which will appear later. Level is also understood to mean surfaces located at different distances from the box when the control device is mounted. The transition between levels is preferably gradual, as shown by the figure 4 .
  • the control device further comprises at least one first latch 30, intended to be pivotally mounted in the watch case.
  • This rocker comprises a first end 30a maintained pressed against the second cam path 58 and a second end 30b may be in contact with a pusher 25 located in the vicinity of the control rod, to block the translation of the latter.
  • the pusher 25 not being a direct part of the invention, it will not be described in detail.
  • the latch 30 is held in contact with the second cam path 58 by a movable finger 28, subjected to the action of a spring 27 and mounted in the middle part 40 of the watch case.
  • the shape of the first end 30a is defined to promote its cooperation and sliding on the second cam path 58.
  • the first and second levels of the latter define a first and a second position of the latch 30.
  • the second end 30b of the rocker 30 has a flat surface 30c ending in a bearing zone 30d.
  • the latch 30 When the latch 30 is in its first position, it leaves free the pusher 25.
  • the flat surface 30c is substantially parallel to the inner face of the pusher 25 and neither this flat surface 30c nor the support zone 30d interferes with the stroke of the pusher.
  • the pusher 25 When the latch 30 is in its second position, the pusher 25 is blocked.
  • the pusher is in the extended position, the bearing zone is in contact with the pusher and locks it in this position. The passage from one to the other of these positions is done by rotation of the locking ring 8, as illustrated on the Figures 4a and 4b .
  • the locking ring 8 is rotatably mounted on the tube 9. Its rotation is done without screwing or axial displacement of itself. To improve the operation of the control device according to the invention and to allow the user to determine whether the locking system is in the locked or free position, the position of the locking ring 8 is indexed. In addition and preferably, its rotational movements are limited between two extreme positions.
  • the locking ring 8 comprises, in the vicinity of the second cam path 58, a guide groove 60 in the form of an arc of a circle, inside which a ball of a ball catch 32 engages ( figure 6 ).
  • the ends of the groove 60 may comprise a circular recess 62 in which the ball of the pawl 32 may partially engage, in order to mark by a notch the extreme positions of the locking ring 8.
  • control device is arranged to simultaneously block the movements of the control rod and a pusher 25, preferably two pushers located on either side of the rod. ordered.
  • a pusher 25 preferably two pushers located on either side of the rod.
  • the second cam path 58 then comprises two successions of a first and second level, diametrically opposite two by two ( figure 5 ). Specifically, the second cam path 58 comprises two arcs located at the first level 30a and two arcs located at the second level 30b, in order to bring in a coordinated manner the two latches in their first and second positions.
  • the positions of the studs 7 projecting and the first cam path 56, on the one hand, and the position of the second cam path 58, on the other hand are arranged so that the control rod and the two pushers are simultaneously blocked, preferably when the locking ring 8 occupies one of its extreme positions.
  • the second cam path 58 is a movable element according to the position occupied by the first locking system.
  • the pads 7 do not push the stitched ring 13 towards the crown and the balls 5 are not pressed in their direction. housing.
  • the control rod is free to rotate and pull.
  • the latches 30 are supported on the first level of the second cam path 58 and are in their free position.
  • the pushers 25 can be actuated in translation.
  • the user brings the locking ring 8 into its second extreme position, for example by a rotation of about 90 °, determined by the guide groove, this position corresponding to a locked position of the control device.
  • the studs 7 then push the stitched ring 13 towards the crown, the stitched ring 13 moving in translation thanks to the shape structures 42 and 44.
  • the balls 5 are then pressed into their housing, blocking the control rod in rotation and in traction.
  • the flip-flops 30 are supported on the second level of the second cam path 58 and are in their locked position. The pushers can no longer be actuated in translation.
  • a control device allowing, by a simple rotation of a locking ring, to simultaneously lock the movements of a control rod (in practice, a winding stem) and one or more pushers .
  • the locking in traction and in rotation of the control rod could be implemented independently of the blocking of the pushers.
