Les avantages de l'invention sont multiples :
- la bascule fonctionne sans ressort de rappel ;
- dans une réalisation comportant des roues dentées, telle qu'illustrée aux
figures 1 , ou similaire, un avantage de l'invention est que, lors de l'engrènement d'un côté ou l'autre de la bascule, l'effort tend toujours à pousser les roues l'une contre l'autre, de façon constante. Un bon engrènement est ainsi favorisé, en même temps qu'on évite tout dégrènement inopiné ou phénomène dit de grattage du système ;et 2 - quand le mobile émetteur d'entrée de la bascule est relié cinématiquement à une tige manoeuvrée par l'utilisateur, par l'intermédiaire par exemple d'un pignon coulant qui engrène directement avec la roue d'entrée 23, le basculement entre les deux positions se fait sous l'action de l'effort imprimé par l'utilisateur à la tige, mais sans risque de casser un composant, grâce à la friction ;
- le système est plus compact qu'un frein à friction ; il autorise la transmission d'un couple important compatible avec toutes les fonctions horlogères ;
- les usinages de la plaque pivotante de bascule sont peu complexes ; sa conception se prête bien à une réalisation de type silicium, par procédé « MEMS », « LIGA », ou similaire, ou encore à une réalisation étampée ou similaire.
- the rocker operates without return spring;
- in an embodiment comprising gear wheels, as illustrated in FIGS.
Figures 1 and 2 , or similar, an advantage of the invention is that, when meshing with one side or the other of the rocker, the effort always tends to push the wheels against one another, steadily . A good meshing is thus favored, while at the same time avoiding any sudden release or phenomenon known as scratching of the system; - when the mobile transmitter input of the latch is kinematically connected to a rod operated by the user, for example by means of a sliding pinion which meshes directly with the
input wheel 23, the tilting between the two positions is under the action of the effort impressed by the user to the rod, but without risk of breaking a component, thanks to the friction; - the system is more compact than a friction brake; it allows the transmission of a large torque compatible with all the watch functions;
- machining of the tilting pivot plate is not very complex; its design lends itself well to a realization of silicon type, by "MEMS" method, "LIGA", or similar, or to a stamped embodiment or the like.
