Definitions

  • the invention relates to mechanisms for timepieces and to timepieces having such mechanisms.
  • Document US8303167B2 discloses a mechanism for a timepiece, comprising a regulator mechanism having a periodical movement, two rotary escapement wheels, a blocking mechanism cooperating with the escapement wheels, said distributor mechanism being controlled by the regulator mechanism to regularly and alternatively hold and release the escapement wheels so that said escapement wheels rotate step by step, and an bistable elastic member configured to be cyclically deformed in a predetermined way to store energy, and to release this energy to the regulator mechanism by elastic return.
  • This mechanism is very complex, hence costly, and includes a large number of parts moving with frictional losses, which limits the energetic efficiency of the system.
  • One objective of the present invention is to at least mitigate these drawbacks.
  • a mechanism for a timepiece comprising:
  • the mechanism is simpler in structure and way of operating, thus less costly, more reliable and better in terms of energetic efficiency.
  • the invention also concerns a timepiece having a mechanism as defined above.
  • Figure 1 shows a schematic bloc diagram of a mechanical timepiece 1, for instance a watch, including at least the following:
  • the energy distribution member may be a rotary energy distribution wheel 5. The following description will be made with respect to such energy distribution wheel.
  • the mechanical energy storage 2 is usually a spring, for instance a spiral shaped spring usually called mainspring.
  • This spring may be wound manually through a winding stem and / or automatically through an automatic winding powered by the movements of the user.
  • the transmission 3 is usually a gear comprising a series of gear wheels (not shown) meshing with one another and connecting an input shaft to an output shaft (not shown).
  • the input shaft is powered by the mechanical energy storage 2 and the output shaft is connected to the energy distribution wheel.
  • Some of the gear wheels are connected to the watch hands or other time indicators 4.
  • the transmission 3 is designed so that the energy distribution wheel rotates much more quickly than the input shaft (with a speed ratio which may be for instance of the order of 3000).
  • the regulator mechanism 7 is designed to oscillate with a constant frequency, thus ensuring the timepiece's precision.
  • the oscillation of the regulator is sustained by regular transfers of mechanical energy from the energy distribution wheel 5, through a monostable elastic member 9 which may for instance belong to the blocking mechanism 6.
  • the mechanical energy storage 2, transmission 3, energy distribution wheel 5, blocking mechanism 6 and regulator 7 form together a timepiece movement 10.
  • the blocking mechanism 6 and regulator mechanism 7 may be monolithic and made in a single plate 11, as shown for instance in Figures 2 and 2a .
  • Plate 11 is usually planar.
  • the plate 11 may have a small thickness, e.g. about 0.1 to about 0.6 mm, depending of the material thereof.
  • the plate 11 may have transversal dimensions, in the plane of said plate (e.g. width and length, or diameter), comprised between about 15 mm and 40 mm.
  • the plate 11 may be manufactured in any suitable material, preferably having a relatively high Young modulus to exhibit good elastic properties. Examples of materials usable for plate 11 are: silicon, nickel, steel, titanium. In the case of silicon, the thickness of plate 11 may be for instance comprised between 0.3 and 0.6 mm.
  • the various members of the blocking mechanism 6 and regulator mechanism 7, which will be detailed hereafter, are formed by making cutouts in plate 11. These cutouts may be formed by any manufacturing method known in micromechanics, in particular for the manufacture of MEMS.
  • plate 11 may be locally hollowed out for instance by Deep Reactive Ion Etching (DRIE), or in some cases by solid state laser cutting (in particular for prototyping or small series).
  • DRIE Deep Reactive Ion Etching
  • solid state laser cutting in particular for prototyping or small series.
  • the blocking mechanism 6 and regulator mechanism 7 may be obtained for instance by LIGA.
  • plate 11 may be locally hollowed out for instance by Wire Electric Discharge Machining (WEDM).
  • WEDM Wire Electric Discharge Machining
  • the constituting parts of the blocking mechanism 6 and regulator mechanism 7, each formed by portions of plate 11, by will now be described in details.
  • Some of these parts are rigid and others are elastically deformable, usually in flexion.
  • the difference between so-called rigid parts and so-called elastic parts is their rigidity in the plane of plate 11, due to their shape and in particular to their slenderness. Slenderness may be measured for instance by the slenderness ratio (ratio of length of the part on width of the part).
  • Parts of high slenderness are elastic (i.e. elastically deformable) and parts of low slenderness are rigid.
  • so-called rigid parts may have a rigidity in the plane of plate 11, which is at least about 1000 times higher than the rigidity of so-called elastic parts in the plane of plate 11.
  • Typical dimensions for the elastic connections, e.g. elastic branches 21, 33 and elastic links 27 described below, include a length comprised for instance between 5 and 13 mm, and a width comprised for instance between 0.01 mm (10 ⁇ m) and 0.04 mm (40 ⁇ m), e.g. around 0.025 mm (25 ⁇ m).
  • Plate 11 forms an outer frame which is fixed to a support plate 11a for instance by screws or similar through holes 11b of the plate 11.
  • the support plate 11a is in turn fixed in the timepiece casing.
  • plate 11 forms a closed, rigid frame entirely surrounding the blocking mechanism 6 and regulator mechanism 7, but this frame could be designed otherwise and in particular could be designed to not surround or not surround totally the blocking mechanism 6 and regulator mechanism 7.
  • such fixed frame includes two substantially parallel sides 12, 15 extending in a first direction X and two substantially parallel sides 13, 14 extending in a second direction Y which is substantially perpendicular to the first direction X.
  • Frame 12-15, support plate 11a and all other fixed parts may be referred to herein as "a support”.
  • the energy distribution wheel 5 is pivotally mounted relative to the support, around an axis of rotation Z which is perpendicular to the plate 11.
  • the energy distribution wheel 5 is biased by energy storage 2 through transmission 3 in a single direction of rotation 36.
  • the energy distribution wheel 5 has external teeth 5a, each having a front face 5b facing the direction of rotation 36 and a rear face 5c opposite the direction of rotation 36.
  • the front face 5b can extend in a radial plane which is parallel to the rotation axis Z, while the rear face 5c may extend parallel to axis Z and slantwise relative to the radial direction (see Figure 2a ).
  • teeth 5a do not need to have the complex shape of a classical escapement wheel of a so-called Swiss-lever escapement or Swiss-anchor escapement.
  • the monostable elastic member 9 is linked to the regulator mechanism 7 and is adapted to bear on the teeth 5a of the energy distribution wheel 5.
  • the monostable elastic member 9 normally have a first geometrical configuration (rest position) and the teeth 5a of the energy distribution wheel are adapted to elastically deform said monostable elastic member 9 by cam effect from said first geometrical configuration to a second geometrical configuration.
  • the monostable elastic member 9 is arranged such that during each rotation cycle of the energy distribution wheel 5:
  • the regulator mechanism may have a rigid, inertial regulating member 17 which is connected to the frame of the plate 11 by a first elastic suspension 21.
  • the first elastic suspension may comprise for instance two flexible, first elastic branches 21 extending substantially parallel to the second direction Y, from the side 12 of the plate 11 so that the regulating member 17 is movable in translation substantially parallel to the first direction X with respect to the support.
  • the regulating member 17 and the first elastic suspension 21 are arranged so that said regulating member 17 oscillates in two directions from the neutral position shown on Figure 2 , according to the double arrow 17a visible on Figure 2 , between two extreme positions which will be called here "first and second extreme regulating member positions".
  • the translation movement of regulating member 17 may be substantially rectilinear.
  • the regulating member 17 is mounted on the support to oscillate in circular translation, with a first amplitude of oscillation in the first direction X and a non-zero, second amplitude of oscillation in the second direction Y.
  • the first amplitude of oscillation is at least 10 times the second amplitude, which makes the movement substantially rectilinear.
  • the regulating member 17 may have a main rigid body 18 extending longitudinally substantially parallel to the first direction X close to the side 12 of plate 11, two diverging rigid arms 19 extending from the ends of the main body 18 toward the side 15 of plate 11, up to respective free ends 20.

  • the first elastic branches 21 may be substantially rectilinear (i.e. not flexed) when the regulating member 17 is at rest in the neutral position.
  • first elastic branches 21 and the amplitude of oscillation of regulating member 17 are such that the movement of said regulating member 17 is substantially rectilinear, as explained above.
  • the blocking mechanism 6 has a rigid blocking member 8 which is connected to the regulating member 17 by at least an elastic link 27 so as to move in synchronism with said regulating member 17.
  • the blocking member 8 may be connected to the regulating member 17 by two flexible elastic links 27 extending substantially parallel to the second direction Y.
  • Said flexible elastic links 27 may be arranged to be substantially rectilinear (non-flexed) when the regulating member 17 is in neutral position.
  • the blocking member 8 may be mounted on the frame of the plate 11 by a second elastic suspension 33.
  • the second elastic suspension 33 may be arranged to impose a translational movement to the blocking member 8 in the second direction Y.
  • the second elastic suspension may comprise two flexible, second elastic branches 33 extending substantially parallel to the first direction X, so that blocking member 8 is movable in translation substantially parallel to the first direction X, in direction of double arrows 8a.
  • the blocking member is thus movable in two opposite directions from a neutral position, between two extreme positions called here "first and second extreme blocking member positions".
  • the elastic branches 33 may be arranged so as to be substantially linear (not flexed) when the blocking member 8 is at rest in the neutral position.
  • the blocking member 8 may include:
  • the elastic links 27 may have first ends connected to main body of regulating member 18, close to the ends thereof, and second ends respectively connected to the free ends 24, 26 of the arms 23, 25.
  • the free end 26 of the lateral arm 25 may be extended toward the other lateral arm 23, in the first direction X, by a first transversal, rigid arm 30.
  • the lateral arm 25 may also be extended, toward the other lateral arm 23, in the first direction X, by a second rigid transversal arm 28 which is close to the base 22.

  • First and second stop members 29a, 29b are designed to cooperate with the teeth 5a of the energy distribution wheel 5, as will be explained in more details below, to alternately hold and release said energy distribution wheel 5.
  • First and second stop members 29a, 29b may have a stop face, respectively 29a1, 29b1, facing the front face 5b of the teeth, and an opposite rear face, respectively 29a2, 29b2.
  • the stop faces 29a1, 29b1 may preferably be disposed in a radial plane parallel to axis Z, while the rear faces 29a2, 29b2 may extend slantwise so that the stop members 29a, 29b have pointed shapes.
  • Blocking member 8 may further include a strut 25 a, extending in the second direction Y and joining the lateral arm 25 to the first transversal arm 30.
  • Blocking member 8 may further have a tab 31 extending in the second direction Y from the transversal arm 30, toward the side 15 of plate 11.
  • the free end 26 and first transversal arm 30 may be received with small play in an indent 26a cut out in the side 25 of plate 11.
  • tab 31 may be received in a further indent 31a cut out in the side 15 of plate 11.
  • Plate 11 may further include a rigid tongue 16, extending in the second direction Y from the side 15 of plate 11 toward side 12, between the energy distribution wheel 5 and the lateral arm 23 of the blocking member 8.
  • Tongue 16 may have a first edge 16a facing the energy distribution wheel 5 and extending parallel to the second direction Y.
  • the first edge 16a may have a concave, circular cut out 16b partly receiving the energy distribution wheel 5.

  • the flexible tongue 9 and blocking member 8 being two distinct members, the mechanism thus provides a separation between the function of blocking / releasing the distribution wheel 5 (provided by the blocking member 8) and the function of transferring energy to the regulator mechanism to sustain oscillation thereof (provided by the flexible tongue 9). Thanks to this separation of functions, the design of the blocking member 8 doesn't need to take into account the function of transferring energy (as it is the case in a traditional Swiss-anchor escapement which handles both blocking and energy transferring functions) and the design of the flexible tongue 9 doesn't need to take into account the function of blocking / releasing the distribution wheel 5.

  • the first and second stop members 29a, 29b are arranged such that:
  • the flexible tongue 9 may be arranged such that the teeth 5a of the energy distribution wheel 5 elastically deform said monostable elastic member 9 from said first geometrical configuration to said second geometrical configuration during rotation of the energy distribution wheel 5 when the blocking member 8 is between the first escape position and the second extreme blocking member position.
  • the flexible tongue 9 accumulates a predetermined potential mechanical energy, corresponding to the geometrical deformation thereof between the predetermined first geometrical configuration and the predetermined second geometrical configuration. This predetermined energy is the same at each rotation cycle of the energy distribution wheel 5.
  • the flexible tongue 9 may be arranged such that said flexible tongue 9 is in the second geometrical configuration when the blocking member 8 is in the second extreme blocking member position.
