L'invention concerne encore l'utilisation d'un alliage particulier, pour la réalisation d'un composant d'habillage interne d'horlogerie.The invention also relates to the use of a particular alloy for the production of an internal cladding component.

L'invention concerne encore un procédé de fabrication d'un composant d'habillage interne d'horlogerie de forme et de dimensions déterminées.The invention also relates to a method of manufacturing an internal cladding component of watchmaking of shape and determined dimensions.

L'invention concerne le domaine des composants d'habillage intérieur pour pièces d'horlogerie, notamment pour montres.The invention relates to the field of interior trim components for timepieces, especially for watches.

Arrière-plan de l'inventionBackground of the invention

La fabrication de composants d'habillage d'horlogerie requiert beaucoup d'attention, ces composants étant très visibles, et conditionnant l'image de marque du fabricant et son positionnement sur le marché.The manufacture of clockwork components requires a lot of attention, these components being very visible, and conditioning the brand image of the manufacturer and its positioning on the market.

Si les composants d'habillage externe sont nécessairement réalisés en des matériaux stables, inoxydables, et garantissant un faible relargage de nickel en raison du contact avec la peau des utilisateurs, les composants d'habillage interne, enfermés dans la pièce d'horlogerie mais visibles au travers d'une glace, autorisent l'emploi de matériaux plus divers.If the outer cladding components are necessarily made of stable materials, stainless, and guaranteeing a low nickel release due to contact with the skin of users, the internal trim components, locked in the timepiece but visible through an ice, allow the use of more diverse materials.

On connaît ainsi des composants d'habillage interne, notamment des appliques, réalisés en laiton rhodié. Leur aspect est très satisfaisant, à condition de protéger très soigneusement ces composants au cours de leur manipulation et de leur assemblage, en raison de la fragilité du revêtement qui est en général issu d'un traitement galvanique, ce dépôt galvanique accentuant tout défaut antérieur au traitement.Thus known internal cladding components, including wall lights, made of rhodium-plated brass. Their appearance is very satisfactory, provided to very carefully protect these components during handling and assembly, because of the fragility of the coating which is generally derived from a galvanic treatment, this galvanic deposit accentuating any defect prior to the treatment.
