Definitions
- the present invention relates to a watch winder with a number of receiving cylinders for receiving watches, which allows a very smooth movement of the clocks for mounting the mechanical movement.
- Watch winders are generally used for mounting mechanical automatic watches. Such mechanical automatic watches are designed in principle that they are constantly raised by wearing on the wrist and the resulting movements. If the clock fully wound, that is, the drive spring of the watch mechanism is fully biased, so depending on the design and functionality of the clock a runtime, or a so-called power reserve, guaranteed from 20 to 40 hours. Unless the watch is worn, so if there is no regular movement, the movement stops at the end of the power reserve and the clock must be wound manually.
- Watch winder are known in principle from the prior art. So describes EP 1 780 614 A1 a tourbillon watch winder, in which a watch carrier is stored in a drum and moved by means of driven rollers about a longitudinal axis. This makes it possible to reliably move one or two watches to wind up.
- WO 2005/073817 A1 a watch winder for six watches is described, in which individual watch holder by a shielded planetary gear from a Motor can be put into a rotary motion.

- the rotation of the rotary elements (253a, 253b, 253c, 253d, 253e, 253f) is in turn converted into a rotational movement of the receiving cylinders (5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 5e, 5f).
- a time-indicating means (29) which does not take part in the rotational movement of the drive element (25), is received in the front surface of the drive element (25).
- a time display means (29) mechanical hand-wound watches, mechanical quartz watches and digital watches are preferable.
- the time display means (29) is mounted in the drive element (25) with low friction.
- the phrase "frictionally supported” means, in view of the rotational movement of the driving member (25) and the time indicating means (29), that the rotational movement of the driving member (25) is not transmitted to the time indicating means (29).
- the time-indicating means (29) thus does not participate in the rotational movement of the drive element (25), but remains in a substantially stationary state due to the low-friction bearing.
- the front surface of the drive element (25) and / or the outer surface of the time display means (29) comprises means for reducing the friction between the front surface of the drive element (25) and the outer surface of the time display means (29).
- the device for reducing the friction can be formed for example by a low-friction plastic, such as polytetrafluoroethylene - PTFE (Teflon®), or a ball bearing.
- a low-friction plastic such as polytetrafluoroethylene - PTFE (Teflon®), or a ball bearing.

- the phosphorescent pigments of the dials or hands of the automatic timepieces are charged by this indirect illumination.
- the present invention can also be applied to the use of the watch winder (1) described above for the manual, semi-automatic or automatic mounting of automatic mechanical watches.
- the watch winder (1) according to the invention can be put into operation in its simplest embodiment by manual starting. It is also conceivable that in a semi-automatic mode of operation, the movement of the clocks is terminated after a predetermined period. Likewise, a fully automatic mode of operation is conceivable in which a predetermined rest time of the clocks takes place after a predetermined movement time.

- the drive element 25 itself has a two-part form with the drive element parts 25a, 25b, wherein the rotary elements 251a 'and 251 "shown by way of example are connected to an axis 255.
- a very quiet operating precision motor which is characterized in particular by its smoothness.
- Such a precision motor also has a very low magnetic field which does not affect the mechanical functions of the clocks to be wound up. An influence can be completely ruled out if the precision motor is arranged so that it is spaced from the clocks, for example when the drive is effected via a propulsion mechanism with propeller shaft to the drive member 25.
- the precision motor is flanged directly onto the drive element 25.
- the infinitely adjustable precision motor allows different speeds for the rotational movement to be set.
- the visual appearance of the watch winder 1 according to the invention is still supported by the selection of high quality materials.
- transparent materials such as Plexiglas can be used for the receiving cylinders 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 5e, 5f, while the flanges 13 and the housing member 9 are made of aluminum, stainless steel or other high-grade materials.
- individual components may be constructed by noble woods, steel, natural stone or glass or be veneered or clad.
- FIGS. 5 . 6 and 7 each show a second, third and fourth embodiment of the watch winder 1 according to the invention after the first development with four, five and six receiving cylinders 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 5e, 5f respectively.
- parts which correspond to the first embodiment are not provided with reference numerals for the sake of clarity.
- FIG. 8 shown second embodiment has insofar a special feature over the first development, as that the further receiving cylinder 25z centered between the other six receiving cylinders 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 5e, 5f is arranged and at the same time constitutes the drive element 25.
- FIG. 9 an embodiment of the first embodiment of the first embodiment of the invention of the watch winder 1 according to the invention is shown.
- a time display means 29 is included, which is decoupled from the rotational movement of the drive member 25, so does not participate in the rotation, but remains in a substantially stationary state by a low-friction bearing.
- lighting means 31 are also shown schematically.
- FIG. 9 is also (representative of all embodiments) a circular path K1 drawn on which the receiving cylinder 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 5e, 5f move.
- This embodiment with time display means 29 and / or illumination means 31 is readily applicable to the second, third, fourth and fifth embodiment of the watch winder 1 according to the invention, as shown in the Figures 5 . 6 and 7 to be shown.
