Definitions
- the present invention relates to timepieces, including mechanical timepieces. It relates more particularly to a timepiece comprising a box closed by an ice and a striking mechanism comprising at least one integral stamp, at one end, a heel itself integral with the ice.
- Such a timepiece is for example described in patent CH 698 533. It comprises a stamp whose end is secured to a heel, the stamp and the heel being both of a material having a celerity of its inferior to that of ice, such as steel. The entire stamp and heel is fixed on the ice by means of an ice holder by means of a set of fixing screws.
- the use of intermediate elements and fastening screws impairs the transmission of sound, which then depends on the quality of the surface states of the various elements, the amount of the surfaces in contact which will vary depending on the geometry parts, and the tightening torque of the screws, even if torque screwdrivers are used.
- the application EP 2 207 069 also describes a support for timepiece ringing timbres, wherein said stamps are mounted on said support by means of screws constituting a removable connection.
- the support is attached to the ice. Again, the presence of screws impairs the transmission of sound.
- An object of the present invention is to overcome these disadvantages, by providing a timepiece for improved transmission of the sound of the tone of the ring.
- a timepiece comprising a box closed by an ice and a striking mechanism comprising at least one integral stamp, by an end of a heel, him - even with the ice.
- the binding of the stamp to the ice is only and directly via the heel and the stamp is made of the same material as ice.
- the binding of the stamp to the ice is only and directly via the heel and the heel and the stamp are monoblock.
- the binding of the stamp to the ice is only and directly through the heel and the heel is sapphire, dissociated from the ice.
- the timepiece comprises a box closed by an ice and a mechanical striking mechanism comprising at least one stamp arranged to be struck by a hammer, said stamp being secured, by a end, a heel itself integral with the ice, the binding of the stamp to the ice being only and directly via the heel, and the heel and the ice being monobloc.
- the binding of the stamp to the ice made solely and directly via the heel limits the number of interfaces between the stamp (s) and the ice, and therefore to ensure a better transmission of wave between the stamp (s) and the ice.
- the variants using monobloc elements make it possible to ensure a perfect connection between these monoblock elements, and thus to guarantee a better transmission of sound between these elements.

- stamps 2 and 4 are fixed on the glass 1. For this, each stamp 2, 4 is secured, at one end, a heel 6 itself integral with the ice 1.
- the heel is the projecting element that directly connects the stamps to the ice, and without intermediate element. So, the binding of a stamp to the ice is done only and directly via the heel.
- the heel 6 has substantially the shape of a block whose wall is in contact with the ice 1, and another wall is integral with an end of at least one stamp, the end of the stamp being considered as the area that comes in contact with the outer wall of the heel.
- the striking mechanism comprises two stamps, the end of one of the stamps 2 being secured to one of the walls 6a of the heel 6, and the end of the other stamp 4 being secured to the opposite wall 6b of the heel 6.
- the single bead 6 can be replaced by two distinct heels, namely a first bead having a wall integral with the end of a first stamp and a second heel whose wall is integral with the end of the second stamp.
- the (s) stamp (s) is (are) made (s) in the same material as ice.
- At least one of the elements selected from the ice 1, the heel 6 and the stamp (s) 2, 4 is dissociated from the other elements.
- the element selected from the ice, the heel and the stamp (s), which is dissociated from the other elements, is assembled to one of the said other elements by a method chosen from the group comprising the embedding, the welding , gluing and any other process ensuring a homogeneous bond between the dissociated elements.
- o the ice 1, the heel 6 and the stamp (s) 2, 4, can in particular be all dissociated from each other, as shown in Figure 6.
- o the heel 6 and at least one stamp 2, 4 may in particular be monobloc, that is to say made in one piece, as shown in Figure 4.
- the set of heel 6 and stamp (s) ) 2, 4 is then reported on the ice 1 by embedding, welding, or gluing.
- the heel 6 can be replaced by two separate heels one from the other, each stamp being integral with its associated heel,
- the ice 1 and the heel 6 may in particular be monoblock, as shown in Figure 5. At least one patch is then attached to the heel assembly 6 and 1 ice by embedding, welding, or gluing.
- the ice 1, the heel 6 and the stamp (s) 2, 4 may be monoblock, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 3.
- the material of the ice 1, and therefore of (the) stamp (s) 2, 4 is a transparent material having a high velocity.
- a transparent material is preferably sapphire.
- the material of the heel 6 is advantageously sapphire also.
- the heel 6 and at least one stamp 2, 4 are monoblock.
- the heel and (s) stamp (s) may be preferably sapphire.
- the ice is preferably sapphire.
- the heel 6 is replaced by two separate heels from one another, a first stamp being associated with a first bead and a second stamp being associated with a second bead, each stamp being monobloc with its associated heel.
- the whole heel / stamp (s) may in particular be reported on the ice 1 by embedding, welding, or bonding as shown on Figure 4.
- the heel, the stamp (s) and the ice can be monoblock as shown in Figures 1 to 3.
