Description

L'invention concerne une montre à sonnerie munie d'un agencement particulier pour la frappe d'au moins un timbre. Ladite montre à sonnerie comprend un mécanisme de sonnerie avec au moins un timbre fixé à un porte-timbre, et au moins un marteau destiné à venir frapper le timbre.The invention relates to a striking watch provided with a particular arrangement for striking at least one stamp. Said striking watch comprises a striking mechanism with at least one stamp attached to a stamp holder, and at least one hammer intended to strike the stamp.

Dans le domaine de l'horlogerie, une architecture traditionnelle est utilisée pour réaliser des mouvements, qui sont munis de mécanismes de sonnerie, tels que des répétitions minutes. Dans ces réalisations, le ou les timbres utilisés sont constitués chacun par un fil métallique généralement de forme circulaire et placé dans un plan parallèle au cadran de la montre. Le fil métallique de chaque timbre est généralement disposé autour du mouvement, dans la cage de la montre et au-dessus d'une platine sur laquelle les différentes parties du mouvement sont montées. Une extrémité ou plusieurs extrémités de chaque timbre est fixée, par exemple par brasure, à un porte-timbre solidaire de la platine, par exemple, qui peut être unique pour tous les timbres. L'autre extrémité de chaque timbre peut être généralement libre.In the field of watchmaking, a traditional architecture is used to perform movements, which are provided with striking mechanisms, such as minute repetitions. In these embodiments, the stamp or stamps used are each constituted by a metal wire generally of circular shape and placed in a plane parallel to the dial of the watch. The metal wire of each stamp is generally arranged around the movement, in the watch cage and above a plate on which the different parts of the movement are mounted. One end or several ends of each patch is fixed, for example by brazing, to a stamp holder integral with the plate, for example, which may be unique for all the stamps. The other end of each stamp may be generally free.

Le mécanisme de sonnerie de la montre comprend également au moins un marteau actionné à des moments prédéterminés. La vibration de chaque timbre est produite par l'impact du marteau correspondant sur le timbre à proximité du porte-timbre. Chaque marteau effectue en général une rotation partielle dans le plan du ou des timbres de façon à frapper le timbre correspondant et à le faire vibrer dans son plan, c'est-à-dire dans un plan X - Y parallèle au fond ou au cadran de la montre. Une partie de la vibration du timbre est encore transmise à la platine par le porte-timbre.The striking mechanism of the watch also includes at least one hammer actuated at predetermined times. The vibration of each stamp is produced by the impact of the corresponding hammer on the stamp near the stamp holder. Each hammer generally performs a partial rotation in the plane of the stamp or stamps so as to strike the corresponding stamp and make it vibrate in its plane, that is to say in an X-Y plane parallel to the bottom or the dial of the watch. Part of the vibration of the stamp is still transmitted to the plate by the stamp holder.

Avec un agencement traditionnel du timbre sous la forme d'un arc de cercle autour du mouvement de montre, il n'est pas toujours facile de rendre le son plus pur ou harmonieux suite à la frappe du marteau, ce qui constitue souvent un inconvénient.With a traditional arrangement of the stamp in the form of an arc around the watch movement, it is not always easy to make the sound more pure or harmonious after the hammer is struck, which is often a drawback.

L'invention a donc pour but de pallier aux inconvénients de l'état de la technique en fournissant une montre à sonnerie, qui comprend un mécanisme de sonnerie avec un agencement particulier du ou des timbres et du ou des marteaux susceptibles de venir frapper le ou les timbres à des instants définis, afin de produire des vibrations plus favorablement audibles.The invention therefore aims to overcome the drawbacks of the state of the art by providing a ringing watch, which comprises a striking mechanism with a particular arrangement of the stamp (s) and the hammer or hammers likely to strike the or timbres at defined times, in order to produce more favorably audible vibrations.

A cet effet, l'invention concerne une montre à sonnerie citée ci-devant, qui comprend les caractéristiques définies dans la revendication indépendante 1.For this purpose, the invention relates to a striking watch cited above, which comprises the features defined in the independent claim 1.

Des formes d'exécution particulières de la montre sont définies dans les revendications dépendantes 2 à 12.Particular embodiments of the watch are defined in dependent claims 2 to 12.

Un avantage de la montre à sonnerie selon l'invention réside dans le fait qu'elle permet avec l'agencement particulaire du mécanisme de sonnerie d'augmenter le niveau acoustique. La vibration du ou des timbres dans la direction verticale, c'est-à-dire dans la direction Z est favorisée par la frappe verticale de chaque marteau prévu. Ainsi une augmentation de la qualité sonore peut être obtenue avec des timbres de conception simple avec des partiels bien déterminés pour obtenir un son harmonieux.An advantage of the striking watch according to the invention lies in the fact that, with the particular arrangement of the striking mechanism, it makes it possible to increase the sound level. The vibration of the stamp (s) in the vertical direction, that is to say in the Z direction, is favored by the vertical strike of each hammer provided. Thus an increase in sound quality can be achieved with simple design timbres with well-defined partials to achieve a harmonious sound.

Les buts, avantages et caractéristiques de la montre à de sonnerie apparaîtront mieux dans la description suivante notamment en regard des dessins sur lesquels :

  • la figure 1 est une vue de dessus simplifiée d'une montre à sonnerie avec un agencement particulier pour la frappe d'un ou deux timbres selon l'invention,

Dans la description suivante, toutes les parties de la montre à sonnerie, qui sont bien connues dans ce domaine technique, ne seront décrites que sommairement.In the following description, all parts of the striking watch, which are well known in this technical field, will be described only briefly.

La figure 1 est une vue de dessus d'une montre à sonnerie 1. La montre comprend un mouvement de montre ou horloger bien connu, non représenté, qui est disposé sous un cadran de montre 5. La montre comprend également un mécanisme de sonnerie, qui peut faire partie du mouvement horloger. Ce mécanisme de sonnerie comprend au moins un timbre 3 fixé à un porte-timbre 2, qui est généralement fixé sur une platine du mouvement horloger. Le timbre est généralement un fil métallique ou en verre métallique. Le timbre 3 s'étend au-dessus du mouvement de montre ou parallèlement au cadran de montre 5. Le mécanisme comprend encore au moins un marteau 4 pour venir frapper le timbre dans une direction verticale Z, c'est-à-dire dans une direction perpendiculaire au plan défini par le mouvement de montre sur une platine de montre.The figure 1 is a top view of a striking watch 1. The watch comprises a well-known watch or watch movement, not shown, which is arranged under a watch face 5. The watch also comprises a striking mechanism, which can be part of the watch movement. This striking mechanism comprises at least one stamp 3 attached to a stamp holder 2, which is generally fixed on a platen of the watch movement. The stamp is usually a wire or metal glass. The patch 3 extends above the watch movement or parallel to the watch dial 5. The mechanism further comprises at least one hammer 4 to strike the stamp in a vertical direction Z, that is to say in a direction perpendicular to the plane defined by the watch movement on a watch plate.

De préférence, il peut être prévu deux timbres 3, 3', fixés à un même prote-timbre 2. Ces premier et second timbres 3, 3' sont destinés à être frappés chacun par un marteau respectif 4, 4'. Le premier marteau 4 est destiné à venir frapper le premier timbre 3 depuis dessous et dans une direction verticale et de préférence à proximité du porte-timbre 2, alors que le second marteau 4' est destiné à venir frapper le second timbre 3' depuis dessous et dans une direction verticale et de préférence également à proximité du porte-timbre 2. Comme montré en détail à la figure 2 du mécanisme de sonnerie 10, les deux marteaux 4, 4' peuvent être agencés pour tourner autour d'un même axe de rotation parallèle au cadran de montre 5. Ces marteaux 4, 4' peuvent venir frapper chaque timbre 3, 3' dans des instants différents ou identiques en fonction de leur actionnement dans le mécanisme de sonnerie 10.Preferably, two stamps 3, 3 ', fixed to the same stamp 2 may be provided. These first and second stamps 3, 3' are intended to be each struck by a respective hammer 4, 4 '. The first hammer 4 is intended to strike the first stamp 3 from below and in a vertical direction and preferably near the stamp holder 2, while the second hammer 4 'is intended to strike the second stamp 3' from below. and in a vertical direction and preferably also near the stamp holder 2. As shown in detail at figure 2 of the striking mechanism 10, the two hammers 4, 4 'can be arranged to rotate about the same axis of rotation parallel to the watch face 5. These hammers 4, 4' can strike each stamp 3, 3 ' in different or identical instants according to their actuation in the striking mechanism 10.

Les deux timbres 3, 3' peuvent avoir deux portions rectilignes s'étendant dans une direction diamétrale ou vers le centre du cadran de montre 5, depuis le porte-timbre 2, qui est disposé à proximité d'une paroi intérieure d'une carrure 8 de boîte de montre. Les deux timbres 3, 3' peuvent être disposés au-dessus du cadran de montre 5 comme montré à la figure 1 ou dans un même plan et à côté du cadran de montre. Si les deux timbres 3, 3' sont disposés au-dessus du cadran de montre, les deux portions rectilignes sont de préférence disposées de part et d'autre d'un axe central 7 de la montre. Des aiguilles 6 d'indication de l'heure sont fixées sur l'axe central 7.The two stamps 3, 3 'may have two rectilinear portions extending in a diametrical direction or towards the center of the watch face 5, from the stamp holder 2, which is arranged near an inner wall of a middle part 8 of watch box. The two stamps 3, 3 'can be arranged above the watch face 5 as shown in FIG. figure 1 or in the same plane and next to the watch face. If the two timbres 3, 3 'are arranged above the watch face, the two rectilinear portions are preferably disposed on either side of a central axis 7 of the watch. Hour indication hands 6 are fixed on the central axis 7.

Le premier timbre 3 et/ou le second timbre 3' peuvent comprendre chacun une portion circulaire débutant depuis une extrémité de chaque portion rectiligne. Une des portions circulaires est disposée à proximité et de manière coaxiale à la paroi intérieure de la carrure 8. L'autre des portions circulaires est orientée dans une direction opposée à la première portion circulaire et dans un même plan.The first stamp 3 and / or the second stamp 3 'may each comprise a circular portion starting from one end of each rectilinear portion. One of the circular portions is disposed close to and coaxially with the inner wall of the middle part 8. The other of the circular portions is oriented in a direction opposite to the first circular portion and in the same plane.

Les figures 3a et 3b représentent des graphes des graphes de l'évolution de la vitesse au porte-timbre en fonction du temps et selon la direction de la frappe. Une comparaison entre l'agencement particulier du mécanisme de sonnerie selon l'invention en comparaison à un agencement traditionnel du mécanisme de sonnerie est représentée A la figure 3a, il s'agit d'une frappe du timbre traditionnellement dans le plan et à la figure 3b, il s'agit d'une frappe du timbre dans une direction verticale selon l'invention.The Figures 3a and 3b represent graphs of the graphs of the evolution of the speed with the door-stamp according to the time and according to the direction of the striking. A comparison between the particular arrangement of the striking mechanism according to the invention compared to a conventional arrangement of the striking mechanism is shown in FIG. figure 3a , it is a stamp strike traditionally in the plan and at the figure 3b it is a stamp striking in a vertical direction according to the invention.

On peut constater sur les figures 3a et 3b, que l'amplitude de la vitesse de vibration hors du plan selon vz est bien plus grande avec une frappe verticale. Grâce à cette vibration, cela permet d'exciter favorablement la glace de montre et donc de rayonner favorablement le son généré.We can see on Figures 3a and 3b , that the amplitude of the vibration velocity out of the plane according to vz is much greater with a vertical strike. Thanks to this vibration, it makes it possible to excite the watch ice favorably and thus to favorably radiate the generated sound.

A partir de la description qui vient d'être faite, plusieurs variantes de réalisation de la montre à sonnerie avec son agencement particulier du mécanisme de sonnerie peuvent être conçues par l'homme du métier sans sortir du cadre de l'invention définie par les revendications.From the description that has just been given, several variants of the ringing watch with its particular arrangement of the striking mechanism can be designed by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the invention defined by the claims. .
