Definitions

  • the invention relates to a musical watch or bell, which is provided with an acoustic radiation arrangement.
  • the watch comprises a watch case, which is constituted at least of a middle and a bottom removably attached to the middle part, and at least one mirror for closing said box.
  • a clockwork movement with a musical mechanism or ringing mechanism can be arranged in a space of the watch case.
  • the acoustic radiation arrangement is adapted in the watch case.
  • a striking mechanism may be provided for generating sound or music.
  • the timbre of the bell watch or the keyboard of the musical watch are generally arranged in the watch case.
  • These pieces of clothing are for example the middle part, the bezel, the ice and the bottom of the watch case. These large pieces of clothing begin to radiate sound in the air under the effect of transmitted vibrations.
  • a sound is produced either by a stamp struck by a hammer or by one or more blades of the vibrating keyboard, these pieces of clothing are able to radiate the sound produced in the air.
  • the watch case As part or additional element of dressing, it can still be used one or more membranes arranged in the watch case. These membranes are configured in such a way as to improve the acoustic level of the sound or music generated. Other parts of the watch can also be adapted for good sound radiation including low frequency. However, it is difficult to optimize the acoustic radiation from the bottom of the watch case, which often remains a piece of clothing almost inactive acoustically.
  • the acoustic output In a musical watch or bell, the acoustic output, based on the complex vibro-acoustic transduction of the trim pieces, is generally low. To improve and increase the acoustic level perceived by the user of the bell or musical watch, the material, geometry and boundary conditions of the trim pieces must be taken into account. The configurations of these pieces of clothing are also dependent on the aesthetics of the watch and operating constraints, which may limit the possibilities of adaptation.
  • the frequency content of the sound of a bell or musical watch must be rich in a frequency range between 1 kHz and 6 kHz. Traditional trim parts do not allow effective radiation in this frequency band.
  • one or more membranes can be placed in the watch case.
  • the membranes can be easily sized and configured for effective radiation of the generated note (s) in the watch case.
  • the frequencies of the generated notes must be close to the natural modes of vibration of the membranes so that they come into resonance.
  • Requirement FR2777095 discloses a striking watch, which is provided with an acoustic radiation arrangement, the watch comprising a watch case consisting of at least one middle and one bottom and an ice for closing said box, the acoustic radiation arrangement comprising a support piece, the bezel, fixed between the middle and the ice, the bottom comprising a plurality of lateral openings, and a cavity being defined between the support and connection piece and the lateral openings. But in this document the bottom is not fixed in a removable manner and the support piece is not attached to the bottom.
  • the invention therefore aims to overcome the disadvantages of the state of the art mentioned above by providing a musical watch or bell, which is provided with an acoustic radiation arrangement, which improves the acoustic performance over a wide range. frequency band and to also guarantee tightness and withstand under high external pressure of the watch case.
  • the invention relates to a musical or striking watch, which is provided with an acoustic radiation arrangement comprising the features defined in the independent claims 1 and 2.
  • An advantage of the musical or striking watch lies in the fact that with the acoustic radiation arrangement, it is possible to integrate a cavity in the watch case also with a background ice without risk of dirt. An effective vibro-acoustic coupling is thus obtained between the cavity and a vibrating element, especially radially in the watch case and preferably in the bottom.
  • the acoustic quality factor is increased by the coupling between the support and connection piece and the background ice with mechanical degrees of freedom.
  • a part of the noise generated by the mechanism is reduced by the anti-resonance phenomenon created by the vibro-acoustic coupling between the cavity and the support and connection piece.
  • the watch with the acoustic radiation arrangement can withstand high pressures, for example of the order of 3 bars.
  • the figure 1 represents a cross-section of a musical watch or bell 1.
  • This watch includes a watch case, which consists mainly of a middle 7 and a bottom 2, and at least one front glass 16 above a watch dial to close the watch case.
  • the front lens 16 is attached to a bezel 17, which is connected sealingly to the upper mouth of the caseband 7.
  • a watchmaker movement 10 with a musical mechanism or striking is placed in a sufficient space in the watch case .
  • the watch further comprises an acoustic radiation arrangement, which can be realized in the bottom 2 of the watch case as explained below.
  • this acoustic radiation arrangement comprises a support and connection piece 5, which is fixed in the bottom 2 of the box.
  • This piece of support and connection 5 is disposed between a bottom window 12 and a bottom window 6.
  • the support and connection piece is composed of two rigid parts 5a, 5b, which are respectively held in contact with a wall interior of the bottom window 12 and a side surface or border of the bottom window 6.
  • first and second rigid portions 5a and 5b may preferably be bonded on the one hand to an inner wall of the bottom window 12 and on the other hand to the bottom window 6.
  • the first rigid part 5a may also be attached to the inner wall of the bottom bezel 12 by simple friction or be screwed.
  • By against the ice 6 is not glued to the bottom opening of the bottom window 12 so as to allow a vibration of the ice 6 in a piston type vibration mode.
  • the support and connection piece 5 is thus fixed to the bottom window 12 and to the window 6 while ensuring a good seal of the inside of the watch case.
  • the support and connection piece 5 further comprises an intermediate portion 5c, which is preferably flexible and very thin.
  • This intermediate portion 5c connects the two rigid parts 5a and 5b.
  • the parts 5a, 5b, 5c form a single piece made of the same material.
  • the parts 5a, 5b and 5c are made separately and subsequently assembled to form the support part and connection 5.
  • This flexible intermediate portion 5c allows the vibration of the bottom ice at low frequencies, if the musical or striking watch is not worn on the wrist of a user.
  • the bottom window 12 further comprises several lateral openings 3 for the passage of at least one sound generated by the musical mechanism or ringing. These lateral openings 3 are preferably oriented in the plane of the watch. It can be provided for example between 2 and 8 openings as shown in FIG. figure 2 , which are regularly distributed or spaced around the periphery of the bottom window 12.
  • a cavity 4 is defined between the support and connection piece 5 and the openings 3 of the bottom window 12, which define outward lines of said acoustic cavity. Since the support and connection piece 5 is preferably made in the form of a ring, the annular cavity 4 is defined all around the support piece and connection 5 facing an inner surface of the bottom window 12.
  • the bottom window 12 may include a plurality of lateral openings 3 disposed on a sector of the bottom window. This sector may be smaller than or equal to half of the bottom window 12. In the case of a circular bottom bezel, the angular sector extends over a portion of the bottom bezel less than or equal to 180 °.
  • the lateral openings 3 of the bottom telescope 12 can be oriented perpendicularly to the flexible intermediate part 5c, if this intermediate part is in the plane with the first rigid part 5a, or to the base plate 6.
  • the thickness of the intermediate portion 5c depends on the material used for the support and connection piece 5.
  • the thickness of the flexible intermediate portion 5c may be between 0.1 and 0.3 mm and preferably of the order of 0.14 mm.
  • This piece of support and connection 5 can also be made of yellow or gray gold, platinum or metal glass. The more the flexible part 5c is fine, the lower the frequency of the first clean mode.
  • the diameter of the support and connection piece 5 may be generally between 20 and 40 mm and corresponds approximately to the inside diameter of the bottom window 12.
  • the intermediate part 5c is arranged in the same plane as the first rigid part 5a, and also parallel to the bottom plate 6.
  • the first rigid part 5a is fixed on an inner edge and an inner wall of the bottom window 12 and partly in an upper portion of the cylindrical openings 3.
  • the intermediate portion 5c is connected to a perpendicular portion of the second rigid portion 5b.
  • the support piece and connection 5 provides a vibro-acoustic coupling between the acoustic cavity 4 and the part flexible intermediate 5c as a vibrating membrane in the shape of a circular crown.
  • the intermediate portion 5c may be disposed in the same plane as the second rigid portion 5b and substantially perpendicular to the first rigid portion 5a of the support and connecting piece 5 or the bottom ice 6. It may also be provided a first portion of the intermediate portion 5c, which is disposed in the same plane as the first rigid portion 5a and a second portion, which is disposed in the same plane as the second rigid portion 5b.
  • the bottom bezel 12 further comprises a fastening edge 12a for attachment to the lower part of the caseband 7 as shown in FIG. figure 1 .
  • a first effect is the vibration of the bottom ice 6 according to piston-type vibration modes without deformation of said bottom ice.
  • a second effect is the modulation of the volume of the acoustic cavity 4, one of whose walls is the flexible intermediate part 5c, which activates a resonance mode of said cavity 4.
  • This mode of resonance of the cavity can be acoustically active with a radiation towards the outside of the watch through the openings 3, or acoustically inactive by acting as a shock absorber as a function of the frequency of the vibration.
  • the actual modes of vibration and the acoustic modes which are the waves of pressure, do not coincide with the individual modes of the support and connection piece 5 and the background glass 6.
  • the actual modes of vibration and the acoustic modes also do not coincide with the purely acoustic modes of the cavity 4.
  • the modes Coupled with a main vibration contribution occur as sound damping modes, while modes having a main contribution of sound pressure modulation intervene as amplified radiation modes.
  • FIG 4 a comparison of the frequency vibratory responses of a standard background and a vibro-acoustically coupled background with the acoustic radiation arrangement is shown.
  • This acoustic radiation arrangement is optimized as described above with reference to Figures 1 to 3 .
  • the support and connection piece 5 of the acoustic radiation arrangement can be made of red gold.

  • the frequency of the first resonance is at 8 kHz.
  • the frequency of the first resonance is reduced by approximately 1 kHz to be at 7 kHz.
  • the quality factor is increased with a reduced peak width, which corresponds to a significant increase in the duration of the vibration, and therefore the sound generated.
  • the curve a of the vibro-acoustic coupling of the invention there is still an anti-resonance, that is to say a local minimum, which is introduced at about 15 kHz. This allows the removal of the noise components of the mechanism, which are present in this frequency range.
