Le dispositif de correction 12 évite donc de découpler le système de calendrier 13 par rapport à celui de mesure de l'heure 11 ce qui permet d'éviter le décalage de l'avancée de la phase de lune 19 de l'affichage 14 par rapport aux aiguilles 4, 6 de l'affichage 2. Par conséquent, avantageusement selon l'invention, le dispositif d'affichage 9 est toujours synchronisé.The
Enfin, le système de correction 12 comporte des moyens de couplage élastique 29 entre le mobile de correction 23 et la roue motrice 25 afin que le système d'affichage 9 puisse être déplacé soit par le système de calendrier soit par le système de correction sans induire de contraintes au système de calendrier.Finally, the
Plus précisément, les moyens de couplage élastique 29 comportent deux butées 31, 33 plaquées contre la denture de l'étoile 24 du mobile de correction 23 par deux lames élastiques 32, 34. Comme visible à l'exemple de la
De plus, chaque butée 31, 33 comporte un coulisseau 35, 37 coopérant avec une coulisse 36, 38 aménagée dans l'épaisseur de la roue motrice 25 afin de guider le déplacement des moyens de couplage élastique 29 et transmettre le mouvement de la roue motrice 25 au système d'affichage 14.In addition, each
Selon un mode de réalisation préféré, le système de correction rapide 12 comporte en outre un dispositif de réduction 39 couplé au mobile de correction 23 afin d'avoir une précision suffisante pour corriger une phase de lune. Comme visible aux
Le fonctionnement du système de calendrier 13 va maintenant être expliqué. Le système de calendrier 13 fonctionne selon deux modes pouvant avantageusement fonctionner ensemble. Un premier mode d'affichage du calendrier qui est permanent et un deuxième mode de correction de l'affichage du calendrier qui peut fonctionner en même temps. Dans les deux modes, il est important de noter que les systèmes de calendrier 13 et de mesure du temps 11 sont reliés en permanence afin de garder un rapport constant entre le déplacement continu entre l'affichage 14 du calendrier par rapport à l'affichage 2 de l'heure y compris lors du passage en mode de correction.The operation of the
En mode d'affichage, le système de mesure du temps 11 fournit l'information du temps écoulé au système de calendrier 13 qui entraîne la roue des 24 heures 27 à raison d'un tour par jour. Les deux butées 31, 33 étant plaquées par les deux lames élastiques 32, 34 contre la denture de l'étoile 24 du mobile de correction 23, la roue motrice 25 entraîne donc à rotation l'ensemble mobile de correction 23 - moyens de couplage élastique 29.In display mode, the
En effet, chaque coulisse 36, 38 aménagée dans l'épaisseur de la roue motrice 25 oblique chaque coulisseau 35, 37 associé à imprimer le même mouvement de rotation, et, incidemment par son étoile 24, le mobile de correction 23 pour finalement transmettre le mouvement au système d'affichage 9 via le dispositif de réduction 39. Le disque de phase de lune 19 étant solidaire du porte-satellite 41, il effectue la rotation continue en indiquant l'avancée de lunaison.Indeed, each
Pour passer en mode de correction, l'organe de commande 7 est actionné afin d'agir sur le système de correction 12. L'organe de commande 7 va alors actionner le renvoi 28. Le déplacement de ce dernier transmis par le roue de correction 22 puis l'étoile 24 va forcer les moyens de couplage élastique 29 et notamment ses butées 31, 33 à s'écarter afin d'autoriser un mouvement relatif entre l'étoile 24 et la roue motrice 25 dans le but de corriger l'affichage 14 solidaires du pignon 26 sans influencer la rotation continue de la roue motrice 25 du mode d'affichage. Avantageusement, on comprend donc que l'écartement de chaque butée 31, 33 est guidé par le glissement de son coulisseau 35, 37 dans sa coulisse 36, 38 associée.To enter correction mode, the
Comme expliqué ci-dessus, de manière avantageuse, suivant le nombre de dents de l'étoile 24, chaque dent passée par moyens de couplage élastique 29 permet de corriger selon un pas prédéterminé. Ainsi, la combinaison des 12 dents de l'étoile 24 dans l'exemple de la
Bien entendu, la présente invention ne se limite pas à l'exemple illustré mais est susceptible de diverses variantes et modifications qui apparaîtront à l'homme de l'art. En particulier, l'affichage 2, 14 de l'information horaire ou non ne saurait se limiter à une aiguille ou un disque. A titre d'exemple, l'affichage pourrait être du type à tambour.Of course, the present invention is not limited to the illustrated example but is susceptible of various variations and modifications that will occur to those skilled in the art. In particular, the
Il est également envisageable que l'étoile 24 et/ou que le dispositif de réduction 39 soit modifié afin d'effectuer une autre valeur pas de l'affichage 14 que l'information soit horaire ou non.It is also conceivable that the
De même, l'organe de commande 7 du système de correction 12 peut ne pas être le même que pour le dispositif de correction 10 du système de mesure du temps 11 et peut, de manière équivalente, être un poussoir ou une couronne.Similarly, the
La
Enfin, le dispositif de réduction 39 ne saurait se limiter à un engrenage du type épicycloïdal ou même l'utilisation de deux satellites 40, 42. En effet, le dispositif de réduction 39 pourrait ne comporter qu'un unique satellite ou plus de deux satellites. De plus, il est parfaitement possible de remplacer l'engrenage du type épicycloïdal par un engrenage plus classique utilisant au moins un ensemble roue - pignon. On s'aperçoit alors que le pignon 26 pourrait être directement solidaire de l'affichage 14 et que le renvoi 28 pourrait devenir le dispositif de réduction qui autorise une correction selon un pas prédéterminé de l'affichage 14 à chaque mouvement relatif entre l'étoile 24 et la roue motrice 25.Finally, the
