Description

La présente invention a pour objet une pièce d'horlogerie à affichage du quantième.The present invention relates to a timepiece with date display.

Il est déjà connu dans l'état de la technique des pièces d'horlogeries capables d'indiquer les quantièmes. EP0529191 B1 décrit un indicateur des quantièmes, pour montre, le disque des unités et le disque des dizaines étant disposés parallèlement l'un à côté de l'autre de façon telle que le disque des unités et le disque des dizaines se chevauchent dans la zone d'un emplacement d'affichage, un nombre à deux chiffres pouvant être représenté dans l'emplacement d'affichage par un chiffre des dizaines et par un chiffre des unités visible à travers l'une des fenêtres disposée sur le disque des dizaines, ledit nombre à deux chiffres étant visible dans une fenêtre de quantième du cadran. Le principal inconvénient de ce système est que la superposition des deux disques ne permet pas d'avoir un affichage toujours homogène dans la mesure ou un emplacement fixe pour un chiffre engendre parfois des espaces plus ou moins importants entre le chiffre des dizaines et celui des unités en fonction des chiffres affichés.It is already known in the state of the art of timepieces capable of indicating the dates. EP0529191 B1 describes an indicator of the dates, for shows, the disk of the units and the disk of the tens being arranged parallel to each other in such a way that the disk of the units and the disk of the tens overlap in the zone of a display location, a two-digit number that can be represented in the display location by a digit of the tens and by a digit of the units visible through one of the windows arranged on the tens disk, said number to two figures being visible in a date window of the dial. The main disadvantage of this system is that the superposition of the two disks does not make it possible to have an always homogeneous display insofar as a fixed location for a figure sometimes generates more or less important spaces between the tens digit and the units digit. according to the numbers displayed.

On connaît également, CH316461A qui a pour objet un dispositif de quantième pour montre, comportant deux disques rotatifs, à chiffres indicateurs sautants, associés de manière qu'un chiffre de l'un des disques et un chiffre de l'autre disque puissent former un nombre à deux chiffres indiquant le quantième du mois et apparaissant juxtaposés, ou partiellement juxtaposés, dans un guichet du cadran, le disque des unités étant entraîné par intermittences par le mouvement de la montre et entraînant à son tour le disque des dizaines. Des encoches sont pratiquées à la périphérie du disque supérieur pour laisser voir les chiffres du disque inférieur. Ce système ne permet pas d'avoir un affichage homogène du chiffre des dizaines et du chiffre des unités quand ceux-ci sont visibles à travers un guichet.We also know, CH316461A which is concerned with a date watch device, comprising two rotary disks with jumping indicator numbers, so associated that one digit of one of the disks and one digit of the other disk can form a two-digit number indicating the month of the month and appearing juxtaposed, or partially juxtaposed, in a window of the dial, the disk units being intermittently driven by the movement of the watch and in turn causing the tens disk. Notches are formed at the periphery of the upper disk to show the figures of the lower disk. This system does not allow to have a homogeneous display of the digit of tens and the number of units when they are visible through a window.

EP 1476789 décrit un dispositif d'affichage de date adaptée à coopérer avec un guichet d'une montre, le guichet étant disposé selon l'axe 12-h-6h ou à proximité de cet axe. Un premier et un second disque sont superposés, de dimensions identiques et concentriques. Le premier disque est divisé par treize rayons virtuels en autant de secteurs identiques et comprend à proximité de sa périphérie les nombres 1 à 9 situés sur neuf rayons virtuels consécutifs, les chiffres 1 et 2 à gauche de deux rayons virtuels consécutifs suivants, et les nombres 30 et 31 dont les chiffres sont situés de part et d'autre des deux derniers rayons virtuels. Le second disque est divisé par onze rayons virtuels en autant de secteurs identiques et comprend à proximité de sa périphérie les chiffres 0 à 9 situés à droite des dix rayons virtuels consécutifs, la région du onzième rayon virtuel ne portant aucune inscription. Le dispositif d'affichage comprend des moyens agencés pour entraîner les deux disques de sorte à afficher successivement les dates de 1 à 31 centrées dans le guichet. Au moins le disque supérieur est fait d'un matériau transparent, ce disque étant en verre, ou saphir, ou toute autre matière transparente. EP 1476789 describes a date display device adapted to cooperate with a window of a watch, the window being disposed along the axis 12-h-6h or in the vicinity of this axis. A first and a second disc are superimposed, of dimensions identical and concentric. The first disk is divided by thirteen virtual rays into as many identical sectors and includes near its periphery the numbers 1 to 9 located on nine consecutive virtual rays, the numbers 1 and 2 to the left of two consecutive virtual rays following, and the numbers 30 and 31 whose numbers are located on both sides of the last two virtual rays. The second disk is divided by eleven virtual rays in as many identical sectors and comprises near its periphery the numbers 0 to 9 located to the right of the ten consecutive virtual rays, the region of the eleventh virtual radius bearing no inscription. The display device comprises means arranged to drive the two disks so as to successively display the dates from 1 to 31 centered in the window. At least the upper disk is made of a transparent material, this disk being made of glass, or sapphire, or any other transparent material.

DE20103818U1 décrit une pièce d'horlogerie avec affichage grande date, selon le préambule de la revendication indépendante 1 de la présente demande. DE20103818U1 discloses a timepiece with large date display, according to the preamble of the independent claim 1 of the present application.

L'affichage de quantième par des disques superposés ou partiellement superposés est géré soit par des disques superposés, pouvant être transparents, soit par des guichets sur le disque supérieur.The date display by superimposed or partially superimposed disks is managed either by superimposed disks, which can be transparent, or by windows on the upper disk.

Le but de la présente invention est de proposer une pièce d'horlogerie à affichage du quantième destinée à indiquer de manière homogène les chiffres des unités et des dizaines à travers un guichet.The object of the present invention is to provide a timepiece with a date display for indicating homogeneously the numbers of units and tens through a window.

Selon l'invention, la pièce d'horlogerie à affichage du quantième comporte deux supports, par exemple disques ou anneaux, superposés, portant chacun une série de signes selon un agencement annulaire, l'un portant des signes 0 à 9 formant les unités des quantièmes et l'autre portant des signes 0 à 3 formant les dizaines, agencés de manière à ce que les signes respectifs se juxtaposent pour indiquer le quantième, caractérisée par le fait que lesdits signes sont disposés non-uniformément, de manière à ce que l'écart angulaire formé entre le début d'un signe et le début du signe suivant varie d'un signe à l'autre, les signes 0 à 9 formant les unités étant séparés d'un angle variant d'environ 33° entre les signes 0 et 1 jusqu'à environ 38.5° entre les signes 2 et 1, les signes 0 à 3 formant les dizaines étant doublés, (0, 0 ; 1, 1 ; 2, 2 ; 3, 3) et étant séparés d'un angle variant d'environ 41° entre les signes 1 et 0 jusqu'à environ 48° entre les signes 2 et 1.According to the invention, the timepiece with date display comprises two supports, for example disks or rings, superimposed, each carrying a series of signs in an annular arrangement, one bearing signs 0 to 9 forming the units of the and the other bearing signs 0 to 3 forming the tens, arranged so that the respective signs juxtapose to indicate the date, characterized in that said signs are arranged non-uniformly, so that the The angular difference formed between the beginning of a sign and the beginning of the next sign varies from one sign to the other, the signs 0 to 9 forming the units being separated by an angle varying from approximately 33 ° between the signs. 0 and 1 to about 38.5 ° between the signs 2 and 1, the signs 0 to 3 forming the tens being doubled, (0, 0; 1, 1; 2, 2; 3, 3) and being separated from one angle varying from about 41 ° between signs 1 and 0 to about 48 ° between 2 and 1.

La pièce d'horlogerie comporte en outre un mécanisme pour entrainer lesdits disques et/ou anneaux par des pas angulaires uniforme de environ 36° par jour pour le disque / anneau portant des signes formant des unités et de environ 45° par cinq jours pour le disque/anneau portant les signes formant les dizaines.The timepiece further comprises a mechanism for driving said disks and / or rings by uniform angular steps of about 36 ° per day for the disk / ring bearing unit-forming signs and about 45 ° by five days for the disc / ring bearing the signs forming the tens.

La disposition non-uniforme de signes formant les unités sur le disque ou anneau inférieur, associée à la disposition non-uniforme de signes sur le disque ou anneau supérieur formant les dizaines permet, par un entrainement angulaire uniforme d'obtenir un affichage uniforme du quantième dans le guichet.The non-uniform arrangement of signs forming the units on the disk or lower ring, associated with the non-uniform arrangement of signs on the disk or upper ring forming the tens allows, by a uniform angular drive to obtain a uniform display of the date in the box office.

Les caractéristiques de l'invention apparaîtront plus clairement à la lecture de la description d'une forme d'exécution préférentielle, donnée uniquement à titre d'exemple, nullement limitative en se référant aux figures schématiques, dans lesquelles :

  • The Figure 5 represents a top view of a starry support tens according to the invention; and
  • The figure 6 represents a view from above of a support of the units according to the invention.

Selon la forme préférentielle de l'invention, la pièce d'horlogerie est une montre-bracelet à affichage du quantième 70 comportant deux disques ou anneaux 20, 30 superposés, l'un 30 portant des signes 50 de 0 à 9 formant les unités des quantièmes 70 et l'autre 20 portant des signes 40 de 0 à 3 formant les dizaines des quantièmes 70, agencés de manière à ce que les signes 40, 50 respectifs se juxtaposent pour indiquer le quantième 70.According to the preferred form of the invention, the timepiece is a date display wristwatch 70 comprising two superposed discs or rings 20, 30, one bearing signs 50 from 0 to 9 forming the units of the 70 and the other 20 bearing signs 40 from 0 to 3 forming the tens of dates 70, arranged so that the respective signs 40, 50 juxtapose to indicate the date 70.

Les signes 40, 50 sont disposés non-uniformément, de manière à ce que l'écart angulaire formé entre le début d'un signe 40, 50 et le début du signe 40, 50 suivant varie d'un signe 40, 50 à l'autre. Les signes 50 de 0 à 9 formant les unités sont séparés d'un angle variant d'environ 33° entre les signes 0 et 1 jusqu'à environ 38.5° entre les signes 2 et 1. Les signes 40 de 0 à 3 formant les dizaines sont doublés, (0, 0 ; 1, 1 ; 2, 2 ; 3, 3) et sont séparés d'un angle variant d'environ 41° entre les signes 1 et 0 jusqu'à environ 48° entre les signes 2 et 1.The signs 40, 50 are arranged non-uniformly, so that the angular difference formed between the beginning of a sign 40, 50 and the beginning of the sign 40, 50 following varies by a sign 40, 50 to 50. 'other. The signs 50 from 0 to 9 forming the units are separated by an angle varying from about 33 ° between the signs 0 and 1 to about 38.5 ° between the signs 2 and 1. The signs 40 from 0 to 3 forming the tens are doubled, (0, 0; 1, 1; 2, 2; 3, 3) and are separated by an angle varying from about 41 ° between signs 1 and 0 to about 48 ° between signs 2 and 1.

La montre-bracelet comporte en outre un mécanisme pour entrainer les disques et/ou anneaux 20, 30 par des pas angulaires uniforme de environ 36° par jour pour le disque / anneau 30 portant des signes 50 formant des unités et de environ 45° par cinq jours pour le disque / anneau 20 portant les signes 40 formant les dizaines.The wristwatch further comprises a mechanism for driving the disks and / or rings 20, 30 by uniform angular steps of about 36 ° per day for the disk / ring 30 bearing unit-forming signs and about 45 ° by five days for the disc / ring 20 bearing the signs 40 forming the tens.

Pour avoir un affichage du quantième 70 uniforme, on peut soit inscrire de manière régulière les signes 40, 50 des quantièmes sur chaque disque / anneau 20 30, ce qui impliquerait un saut irrégulier des disques / anneaux 20, 30 de manière à ce que le saut soit adapté au signe 40, 50 à afficher, soit on peut conserver des sauts réguliers et jouer sur la disposition non régulière des signes 40, 50 des quantièmes 70 sur les disques / anneaux 20, 30.In order to have a uniform date display 70, the signs 40, 50 of the calendars can be regularly inscribed on each disk / ring 30, which would imply an irregular jump of the discs / rings 20, 30 so that the jump is adapted to the sign 40, 50 to display, or we can keep regular jumps and play on the non-regular disposition of the signs 40, 50 of the dates 70 on the discs / rings 20, 30.

Comme illustré dans la figure 1, l'écart angulaire entre les signes 40 identiques des dizaines (0, 0 ; 1, 1 ; 2, 2 ; 3, 3) est de 45° ± 0.1°. Par exemple l'écart angulaire le signe 0 et le signe 0 est de 44.98° quand l'écart entre le signe 2 et le signe 2 est de 45°. L'écart angulaire entre les signes 40 non-identiques des dizaines est de 45° ± 1° entre les signes 0 et 3 ; de 45.5° ± 1° entre le signes 3 et 2 ; de 48.5 ± 1° entre les signes 2 et 1 ; et de 41 ± 1° entre les signes 1 et 0.As illustrated in figure 1 the angular difference between the identical signs 40 of the tens (0, 0, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3) is 45 ° ± 0.1 °. For example, the angular difference sign 0 and the sign 0 is 44.98 ° when the difference between sign 2 and sign 2 is 45 °. The angular difference between the non-identical signs 40 of the tens is 45 ° ± 1 ° between the signs 0 and 3; 45.5 ° ± 1 ° between signs 3 and 2; 48.5 ± 1 ° between signs 2 and 1; and 41 ± 1 ° between signs 1 and 0.

Comme illustré dans la figure 2, l'écart angulaire entre les signes 50 de 0 à 9 formant les unités est : de 33° ± 1° entre les signes 0 et 1 ; de 36° ± 1° entre les signes 0 et 9 ; de 36° ± 1° entre les signes 9 et 8 ; de 37° ± 1° entre les signes 8 et 7 ; de 35.5° ± 1° entre les signes 7 et 6 ; de 36° ± 1° entre les signes 6 et 5 ; de 35.5° ± 1° entre les signes 5 et 4 ; de 36° ± 1° entre les signes 4 et 3 ; de 36.5° ± 1° entre les signes 3 et 2 ; et de 38.5° ± 1° entre les signes 2 et 1.As illustrated in figure 2 the angular difference between the signs 50 from 0 to 9 forming the units is: 33 ° ± 1 ° between the signs 0 and 1; 36 ° ± 1 ° between signs 0 and 9; 36 ° ± 1 ° between signs 9 and 8; 37 ° ± 1 ° between signs 8 and 7; 35.5 ° ± 1 ° between signs 7 and 6; 36 ° ± 1 ° between signs 6 and 5; of 35.5 ° ± 1 ° between signs 5 and 4; 36 ° ± 1 ° between signs 4 and 3; 36.5 ° ± 1 ° between signs 3 and 2; and 38.5 ° ± 1 ° between signs 2 and 1.

Selon la forme préférentielle de l'invention, au moins une partie angulaire du disque ou anneau 20, 30 supérieur qui porte les signes 40, 50 est en matière transparente. Effectivement, seule la périphérie du disque ou anneau 20, 30 supérieure où figurent les signes 40, 50 des quantièmes 70 doit être transparente. On peut donc utiliser un disque ou anneau 20, 30 totalement transparent comme illustré dans la figure 4 ou l'on distingue une montre, sans cadran, utilisant des disques ou anneaux 20, 30 selon l'invention, le disque ou anneau supérieur 20 étant totalement transparent et laissant apparaitre les signes 50 du disque inférieur 30.According to the preferred form of the invention, at least one angular portion of the upper disk or ring 20, which bears the signs 40, 50, is made of transparent material. Indeed, only the periphery of the upper disc or ring 20, 30 where the signs 40, 50 of the calendars 70 appear must be transparent. It is therefore possible to use a totally transparent disk or ring 20, as shown in FIG. figure 4 or one distinguishes a watch, without a dial, using discs or rings 20, 30 according to the invention, the disc or upper ring 20 being completely transparent and letting appear the signs 50 of the lower disc 30.

En variante, un disque supérieur 20, 30 en matière non transparente peut comporter des guichets permettant de voir les signes 40, 50 du disque inférieur 20, 30.Alternatively, an upper disk 20, 30 of non-transparent material may include windows to see the signs 40, 50 of the lower disk 20, 30.

Comme illustré dans la figure 3, la disposition non-uniforme de signes 50 formant les unités sur le disque ou anneau inférieur 30, associée à la disposition non-uniforme de signes 40 sur le disque ou anneau supérieur 20 formant les dizaines permet d'obtenir un affichage uniforme du quantième 70 dans le guichet 60.As illustrated in figure 3 , the non-uniform arrangement of signs 50 forming the units on the disk or lower ring 30, associated with the non-uniform arrangement of signs 40 on the disk or upper ring 20 forming the tens, makes it possible to obtain a uniform display of the date 70 in the box 60.

Ces mesures d'angles indiquées aux figures 1, 2, 5 et 6 sont données uniquement à titre d'exemple et correspondent à une police particulière.These angle measurements indicated in Figures 1, 2 , 5 and 6 are given by way of example only and correspond to a particular font.
