Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a spiral spring intended to be included in a regulating member with a pendulum of a watch movement.
  • the invention also relates to a regulating member comprising the spiral spring and a watch movement comprising the regulating member.
  • the mechanical regulating members comprise a pendulum driven on a rotating axis and a spiral whose contractions determine the running of the watch.
  • the inner end of the spiral is integrally connected to the axis of the balance beam through the ferrule.
  • the outer end of the hairspring is itself integrally linked to the plate or the pendulum bridge through a peg.
  • shock absorbers are generally used such as Incablocs® systems which absorb axial shocks on the axis of the balance, while allowing rotation with less friction. These shock absorbers however increase the regulating organ and increase its complexity and difficulty of assembly.
  • the axis of the pendulum is generally linked to a pendulum bridge that increases the thickness of movement.
  • Requirement EP1605322 discloses a regulating member in which the inner end of the hairspring is connected to the axis of the balance beam through a ferrule free to move axially along this axis. This solution does not solve the problem of isochronism mentioned.
  • Requirement EP2063325 by the present applicant discloses a regulating member with a balance and a double spiral, wherein the outer end of each spiral is integral with the balance, and the inner end of each spiral is secured to a fixed point of the movement, for example a fixed axis.
  • the outer end of each hairspring includes a 90 ° elbow.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a spiral spring free of the limitations of the state of the art.
  • a spiral spring intended to be included in a regulating member with a pendulum of a watch movement and comprising an inner end, a terminal curve and an outer end; the inner end of the spiral being secured to a fixed point of the movement; the outer end of the hairspring being integral with the balance so that the hairspring can be driven by its outer end; and the terminal curve extending above the plane of the hairspring from the outer turn thereof and having a shape to match the position of the center of gravity of the hairspring with its center of rotation.
  • the terminal curve comprises a first portion having a first radius of curvature and a second portion having a second radius of curvature inverted with respect to the first radius of curvature.
  • the terminal curve further comprises a rectilinear bonding zone between the two portions.
  • the invention also relates to a regulating member comprising the spiral spring and a watch movement comprising the regulating member.
  • This solution has the advantage over the prior art to allow a concentric deployment of the hairspring during training by the outer end, the center of gravity of the hairspring remaining close to the center of rotation of the hairspring.
  • the shape of the terminal curve makes it possible to produce a regulating organ offering a very good isochronism.
  • the use of a fixed axis makes it possible to eliminate the shock absorbers and the balance bridge.
  • the manufacture of the hairspring of the invention does not pose more constraints than the manufacture of a conventional terminal curve hairspring.
  • a spiral spring 1 clock (or spiral) according to the invention comprises a spiral plane portion 10 and a raised end curve 3 extending outside (above or below) of the spiral plane portion 2 from a point 11 of the outer turn 8 of this spiral plane portion 2.
  • the hairspring 1 with its end curve 3 can be obtained by deformation of the outer turn 8 of an initial planar hairspring.
  • an inner end 2 of the hairspring 1 is intended to be secured to a fixed point of the movement and a outer end 4 of the hairspring 1 is intended to be secured to a rocker arm of a regulating member of a mechanical watch movement.
  • end of the hairspring may include the end curve 3 or generally the entire portion at each end of the hairspring 1 whose deformation is negligible compared to that of the entire hairspring, for example the last turn at each end of the hairspring.
  • the figure 2 represents a top view of a rocker 5 comprising the spiral spring 1 according to the invention.
  • the inner end 2 of the hairspring 1 is fixed to a fixed axis 7 of the rocker 1, for example, by means of a shell 70.
  • the rocker 5 is configured to to be rotatable about the fixed axis 7 relative to the movement of the watch, for example, with respect to a plate (not shown).
  • the lateral and axial guidance of the balance 5 on the axis 7 can be provided by guide elements (not shown) integral with the balance.
  • the axis 7 being fixed, shock absorbers are not necessary.
  • the other elements of the regulating organ are conventional and are not represented. It is however admitted that the balance is set in motion, for example, thanks to the energy provided by an escape wheel and an escapement anchor (not shown).
  • the outer end 4 of the hairspring is secured to the rocker 5 so that the hairspring can be driven by its outer end.
  • the outer end 4 is fixed to the rocker 5 at a point of attachment 12 located on one of the arms 50 of the beam.
  • the attachment point 12 could also be located on a wheel 51 of the balance. Note however that it is also possible to use a rotary axis, for example the axis of the balance, and to fix the inner end 2 of the balance 1 to another point by means of a peak and a bridge (not shown).
  • the shape of the end curve 3 is determined so that the center of gravity of the hairspring 1 is permanently substantially coincident with the center of rotation 9, so that the turns of the spiral plane portion 2 of the hairspring 1 deform concentrically during oscillations. of the last.
  • center of gravity of the hairspring 1, in fact means the center of gravity of the elastic portion of the hairspring 1.
  • the center of gravity in the sense of the invention is a center of deformation.
  • the spiral spring 1 comprises a terminal curve 3 which extends out of the plane of the spiral from the outer coil 8 thereof and whose shape is chosen to change the position of the center of gravity of the spiral 1 and make it coincide with
  • the shape of the end curve 3 satisfies the Phillips condition, that is to say, the shape of the end curve 3 makes it possible to reduce the center of gravity of the spiral 1 to the axis 7 (coinciding with its center of rotation 9) while having an attachment point 12 located at a radius (from this center of rotation) large enough to let the hairspring 1 operate freely.
  • the point of attachment 12 is preferably at a radius which is much greater than the radius of the last turn of the spiral plane portion 10
  • the terminal curve 3 contributes to the elastic deformations of the spring 1 and allows the latter to deform concentrically during its operation. It consists of circular and / or rectilinear segments and is obtained by permanent deformation of the outer turn 8 of the initial planar spiral 2.
  • the terminal curve 3 takes the form of an "S" curve.
  • the terminal curve 3 in "S" may comprise a first portion 31 having a first radius of curvature and a second portion 32 having a second radius of curvature inverted with respect to the first radius of curvature.
  • the terminal curve 3 may also comprise a rectilinear connection zone between the two portions 31, 32.
  • the torque created by the first and second curvatures 31, 32 compensates for the natural deployment of the hairspring 1 opposite the attachment point 12 so that the center of gravity of the hairspring 1 remains very close to its center of rotation.
  • the position of the center of gravity has been measured, and the inventors have found that it has a variation of the order of 1 ⁇ m relative to the center of rotation 9 of the spiral 1.
