Definitions

  • a moon phase display mechanism includes a control wheel that drives a moon phase disk behind a window of a dial.
  • the invention also relates to a watch or timepiece comprising a movement and such a moon phase mechanism.
  • the invention relates to the field of complications for timepieces, in particular astronomical complications.
  • WO2011 / 113170 in the name of BVLGARI ROTH & GENTA describes a mechanism of retrograde display of lunar phases with a cam in the form of a double core, each corresponding to one of the cycles of the moon, so as to move the mobile indicator phase in opposite directions during the phases of ascending and descending moon.
  • the invention proposes to provide a direct reading, requiring no interpretation, for an observer of the Northern Hemisphere or for an observer of the Southern Hemisphere, and with the aid of a simple mechanism, making it possible to preserve one of the positions, and to change at will.
  • the invention relates to a moon phase display mechanism comprising a control wheel which drives a moon phase disk behind a window of a dial, according to claim 1.
  • the invention also relates to a watch or timepiece comprising a movement, and such a moon phase display mechanism, according to claim 6.
  • the invention relates to a moon phase display mechanism 1 for a watch or a timepiece.
  • the complete display mechanism comprises, in known manner, a traditional driving wheel, called moon wheel (generally 59 teeth), operating in steps or trailing, not shown in the figures, which is arranged to drive two indication wheels phase 100 and 110, which rotate in opposite directions to one another, through the addition of a reference, not shown, for driving one of these two wheels 100, 110.
  • a traditional driving wheel called moon wheel (generally 59 teeth)
  • moon wheel generally 59 teeth
  • Each of the two phase indication wheels 100 and 110 carries a cam, respectively 90, 80, allowing a return to zero.
  • these cams 80, 90 are heart-cams similar to those used in a chronograph or time zone change mechanism.
  • the control wheel 30 is connected alternately, by a double lever 40 to two feelers or rollers, to come to take the information alternately on one or other of the two cams 80 or 90, either North or South.
  • the hemispherical change is made by the control wheel 30 operating in freewheel, but which is held elastically by a first spring 70 positioned and fixed by pins 74, 75, or the like, under the moon phase disk 20.
  • This first spring 70 has a restricted mobility in a cut 32 of the control wheel 30, and it comprises a finger 71, arranged to hang a spout 33 of the control wheel 30.
  • the control wheel 30 has an elongated slot 31, preferably annular about the axis D, and in which is a journal 48 that has the double lever 40.
  • a bore 44 of the pin 48 guides a pin 41, or the like, fixed to the moon phase disk 20 at a bore 21.
  • This double lever 40 further comprises a return arm 51, articulated by an axis 63 at the end of a second spring 60 fixed to the control wheel 30, here by pins 63, 64, or similar.
  • the moon phase display mechanism 1 performs, at a given time, the moon display in a single hemisphere, which avoids the user any interpretation.
  • a conventional control means 500 such as a pusher, a bolt, or the like, the call of the other hemisphere, and the mechanism 1 remains each time immobilized in the new position: northern hemisphere or South.
  • this control means 500 is actuated against an elastic return means such as a spring, and a shuttle it controls is immobilized by reversible locking means, in the manner of a ball-point pen.
  • the hemisphere selection control circuit also makes it possible to indicate, in a known manner, by a separate display, the hemisphere in which the moon phase is now displayed after the operation of the control means 500.
  • figure 11 illustrates a non-limiting example where a needle 502 indicates, in a hemisphere window 501, the presence of a moon phase northern or southern hemisphere.
  • control means 500 triggers the pivoting of the control wheel 30. It is understood that this action on the control means 500 is reversible: two successive actions on the control means 500 have the effect of rotating the control wheel 30 in two opposite directions.
  • the selection is made for a given hemisphere, and the combination of the means described above is such that one of the hammers 42 , 54, the double lever 40 is and remains resting on a flat portion 82, 92, that includes the core 80, 90.
  • the drive of the first phase indication wheel 110 or the second wheel of phase indication 100 by the moon wheel driven by a clockwork movement 900 makes it possible to exert a torque on the double lever 40, such that its pin 48 is held in abutment at one end of the oblong slot 31 of the wheel control 30.
  • the finger 71 of the first spring 70 is then off a first side of the nose 33 of the control wheel 30.
  • the moon phase disk 20 is then driven, without play, in a first pivoting direction.
  • the action has the effect of impressing the control wheel 30 with a rotation in the opposite direction in the preceding sense, and the journal 48 is moved to the other end of the oblong slot 31, which has the effect of pivoting the double lever 40 against the second spring 60 which held until now in position on one of the hearts 80, 90, so that the other hammers 54, 42, bears on the other core 90, 80, seeks contact with its flat portion 92, 82, and then provides the drive in the opposite direction of the control wheel 30, while blowing the first spring 70, whose finger 71 cross the spout 33 to remain supported on a second side of it. And the control wheel 30 then regularly drives the moon phase disk 20 in reverse pivoting, after position correction.
  • the display mechanism 1 according to the invention is particularly stable, without requiring any particular friction surface: the torque provided by the movement 900 to the moon wheel is large enough to guarantee the permanent drive of one of the arms 43, 53, the double lever 40 by the heart 80, 90, which corresponds to it, and the thrust force transmitted to the control wheel 30 by the control means allows to cross the notch corresponding to the passage of the nozzle 33 by the finger 71 .
  • this simple, space-saving mechanism offers a new and advantageous functionality for the user. It is very conventionally driven by a moonwheel, and can easily be substituted for any conventional moon phase display mechanism, the only significant modification being the equipping of a watch 1000, which incorporates the movement 900 and the mechanism 1, by the incorporation of the control means 500, such as for example those used for a time zone modification GMT mechanism.
