Description
L'invention se rapporte à un spiral destiné à diminuer le risque de collement entre ses spires afin d'améliorer la marche d'un résonateur dans lequel ledit spiral est utilisé.The invention relates to a hairspring intended to reduce the risk of bonding between its turns in order to improve the operation of a resonator in which said hairspring is used.
Il est habituel dans l'horlogerie de former des spiraux dont l'enroulement de la lame épouse sensiblement la trajectoire d'une spirale d'Archimède. Toutefois, il a été remarqué que des collements de spires pouvaient être engendrés depuis l'utilisation en horlogerie de nouveaux matériaux comme par exemple du silicium cristallin.It is usual in watchmaking to form spirals whose winding of the blade substantially follows the trajectory of an Archimedean spiral. However, it has been noticed that coil gluing could be generated since the use in watchmaking of new materials such as crystalline silicon.

La présente invention se rapporte à un spiral destiné au domaine de l'horlogerie. Plus précisément, le spiral est destiné à être monté dans une pièce d'horlogerie comme, par exemple, en coopération avec un balancier pour former un résonateur balancier - spiral formant l'organe réglant de la pièce d'horlogerie.The present invention relates to a spiral for the field of watchmaking. More specifically, the hairspring is intended to be mounted in a timepiece such as, for example, in cooperation with a beam to form a pendulum resonator - spiral forming the regulating member of the timepiece.
Comme expliqué ci-dessus, il a été remarqué que des collements de spires pouvaient être engendrés avec l'utilisation de spiraux en silicium cristallin. En effet, les hauteurs des spires se faisant faces sont tellement lisses qu'une adhérence peut être engendrée par simple rapprochement de deux spires lors, par exemple, d'un choc subi par la pièce d'horlogerie. Cette adhérence peut encore être augmentée par la contamination du spiral par des impuretés ou du lubrifiant lors de la fabrication ou au porté.As explained above, it has been noticed that coil splices could be generated with the use of crystalline silicon spirals. Indeed, the heights of the turns facing each other are so smooth that adhesion can be generated simply by bringing two turns together, for example, by an impact on the timepiece. This adhesion can be further increased by contaminating the hairspring with impurities or lubricant during manufacture or wearing.
Le spiral 1, 11, 21, 31, 41, 51, 61, 71 selon l'invention comportant une lame 3, 13, 23, 33, 43, 53, 63, 73 de longueur L, de hauteur H et d'épaisseur E formant une section polygonale, préférentiellement rectangulaire, formée par la hauteur H et l'épaisseur E. La lame 3 est enroulée sur elle-même selon plusieurs spires. On comprend donc que la face formée selon la hauteur de la lame 3, 13, 23, 33, 43, 53, 63, 73 d'une première spire fait vis-à-vis à la face opposée de la lame sur la spire immédiatement consécutive.The
Avantageusement selon l'invention, pour résoudre les problèmes d'adhérence expliqués ci-dessus, au moins une spire 8, 10 du spiral 1, 11, 21, 31, 41, 51, 61, 71 comporte un dispositif 5, 15, 25, 35, 45, 55, 65, 75 anti-rapprochement de spires comprenant au moins deux butées 7, 7', 17, 27, 37, 47, 57, 67, 77 montées sur une même face et en saillie de l'épaisseur E de ladite au moins une spire de la lame, chacune desdites au moins deux butées 7, 7', 17, 27, 37, 47, 57, 67, 77 étant agencées pour entrer en contact avec la face faisant vis-à-vis d'une autre spire de la lame 3, 13, 23, 33, 43, 53, 63, 73 en empêchant que l'autre spire touche ladite au moins une spire lors d'un choc.Advantageously according to the invention, in order to solve the adhesion problems explained above, at least one

Après calcul, il a été déterminé selon une bonne approximation que lesdites au moins deux butées 7, 7', 17, 27, 37, 47, 57, 67, 77 doivent être préférentiellement distribuées sur la même face d'une spire selon un angle α compris entre 80° et 170°. Par compromis, il semble qu'un angle de 90° puisse garantir une distance de sécurité S satisfaisante dans toutes les constructions d'un spiral 1, 11, 21, 31, 41, 51, 61, 71 horloger. Bien entendu, l'angle α peut être modulé suivant les applications souhaitées.After calculation, it has been determined according to a good approximation that said at least two

Bien évidemment, il peut être envisagé de combiner, dans un même dispositif 5, 15, 25, 35, 45, 55, 65, 75 anti-rapprochement de spires, desdites au moins deux butées 7, 7', 17, 27, 37, 47, 57, 67, 77 de configurations différentes, c'est-à-dire par exemple alterner des butées 17 du premier exemple avec des butées 7 du deuxième exemple.Of course, it may be envisaged to combine, in the

A la lecture des exemples ci-dessus, on comprend que le spiral 1, 11, 21, 31, 41, 51, 61, 71 peut être monobloc, c'est-à-dire que la lame 3, 13, 23, 33, 43, 53, 63, 73 est formée sans discontinuité de matière. Un tel spiral 1, 11, 21, 31, 41, 51, 61, 71 peut être formé à base d'un matériau comportant du silicium, c'est-à-dire, par exemple, du silicium monocristallin, du silicium polycristallin, du silicium monocristallin dopé, du silicium polycristallin dopé, du carbure de silicium dopé ou non, du nitrure de silicium dopé ou non, de l'oxyde de silicium dopé ou non tel que le quartz ou de la silice. En effet, le gravage anisotrope de tels matériaux peut être réalisé par voie humide ou par voie sèche.On reading the above examples, it will be understood that the
