Definitions

  • the invention relates to an elementary clockwork mechanism comprising a first structural element carrying a first housing around a theoretical axis of pivoting, a second structural element carrying a second housing, and a mobile which comprises a first end a first bearing arranged to pivot in said first housing and at a second end a second bearing arranged to pivot in said second housing, wherein said second housing comprises at least a first abutment bearing surface which is arranged to provide the alignment of said mobile on said theoretical axis of pivoting when said mobile bears on said first abutment bearing surface, wherein said elementary mechanism comprises at least one elastic return means arranged to bias said mobile to said first bearing surface of stop.
  • the invention also relates to a chronograph mechanism comprising at least one such elementary mechanism.
  • the invention also relates to a watch comprising such a chronograph mechanism and / or comprising at least one such elementary mechanism.
  • the invention relates to the field of watch mechanisms, and in particular the mechanisms concerning mobiles that require a return and / or a positional hold by means other than teeth.
  • Certain clock mechanisms comprise cams, in particular heart-cams, whose cooperation with the failure of a hammer allows the return to a given position (reset zero), or / and holding in that particular position. Often these hammers are made flexible, or in several articulated parts, or the mechanism requires a positioning spring.
  • the document EP2757426 in the name of WATCHES BREGUET SA describes a device for pivoting a watch movement tree whose pivot crosses a stone fixed in a kitten, and a counter-pivot stone comprising a support surface receiving the end of the pivot, and, in abutment position of the pivot on the counter-pivot stone, the normal to the tangent plane common to the pivot and the bearing surface being oblique to the axis at a tilt angle, and defining with this axis a counter-pivot plane oriented at a yaw angle with respect to a reference of a motion plate.
  • This device comprises means for adjusting the yaw angle and / or the tilt angle for adjusting and adjusting the movement of the movement.
  • the invention proposes to ensure the precise positioning of a chronograph counter during resetting, without requiring a flexible or multi-component hammer, or positioning spring.
  • the invention relates to an elementary clockwork mechanism comprising a first structural element carrying a first housing around a theoretical axis of pivoting, a second structural element carrying a second housing, and a mobile which comprises at a first end a first bearing arranged to pivot in said first housing and at a second end a second bearing arranged to pivot in said second housing, wherein said second housing comprises at least a first abutment bearing surface which is arranged to ensure the alignment of said mobile on said theoretical pivot axis when said mobile bears on said first abutment bearing surface, wherein said elementary mechanism comprises at least one elastic return means arranged to bias said mobile to said first surface abutment support, characterized in that said mobile comprises an eccentric heart by rappo rt to the axis of said first staff of said mobile.
  • the invention also relates to a chronograph mechanism comprising at least one such elementary mechanism.
  • the invention also relates to a watch comprising such a chronograph mechanism and / or comprising at least one such elementary mechanism.
  • the invention relates to a flexible guide pivoting mobile watchmaker in a clockwork mechanism.
  • This first housing 20 and second housing 30 may consist of bearings, reported or not, in stones or the like, in bores machined in the first structural element 21 and / or the second structural element 31, or even simple orifices made in this first structural element 21 and / or this second structural element 31.
  • the first housing 20 is, in a particular variant illustrated by the figures, a housing of revolution; in this particular case it is preferably coaxial with theoretical pivot axis D.
  • This first housing 20 could also have another shape, in particular non-circular, for example oblong, or other.
  • This second housing 30 has at least one first abutment bearing surface 36.
  • the second housing comprises a second abutment bearing surface 37, which is at a different distance from the theoretical axis of pivoting D, with respect to the first surface of stop support 36.
  • the second housing 30 is not necessarily closed, it may, for example, consist of a simple notch, open on one side.
  • the first abutment bearing surface 36 is arranged to ensure the alignment of the mobile 1 on the theoretical pivot axis D, when the mobile 1 bears on the first abutment bearing surface 36.
  • the elementary mechanism 10 comprises at least one elastic return means 5 which is arranged to return the mobile 1 to the first abutment bearing surface 36.
  • the second housing 30 When the second housing 30 has a second abutment bearing surface 37, it corresponds to an inclined position of the mobile 1 with respect to the theoretical axis of pivoting D, when the mobile 1 is resting on the second surface d 37. The mobile 1 is then inclined, and carries P1 on the second housing 30, and P2 on the first housing 20.
  • the second housing 30 is arranged to guide the second bearing 3, preferably but not limitatively along a straight path corresponding to a flat trajectory of the pivot axis of the mobile 1.
  • said second housing 30 is oblong with parallel faces.
  • the oblong plays a role very different from those known elsewhere (to facilitate the assembly and initial adjustment of a vortex, an exhaust, or other, before immobilization in a suitable position).
  • the axis of the mobile 1 pivots around the first housing 2, preferably in a plane defined by such an oblong.
  • a third structural element 50 carries such elastic return means 5, which is arranged to return the mobile 1 to the first abutment bearing surface 36, and thus to its theoretical axis of pivoting.
  • a fourth structural element 51 comprises an abutment surface 52, which is arranged to serve as a stop for the elastic return means 5, in a position in which the second bearing surface 3 of the mobile 1 is movable between the first bearing surface of stop 36 and a remote position, which corresponds to the support of the mobile 1 on a bearing surface 55 of the elastic return means 5.
  • the elastic return means 5 cooperates with a third bearing surface 4 of the mobile 1, which is distinct from the first bearing surface 2 and the second bearing surface 3.
  • This elastic return means 5 is arranged to exert a force on the mobile 1 substantially perpendicular to the theoretical axis of pivoting D.
  • it is formed by a flexible blade, which can be monobloc with the first structural element 21, and / or the second structural element 31, and / or the third structural element 50, and / or the fourth structural element 51.
  • the first housing 20 and the second housing 30 are both oblong or the like; the resultant force exerted by the elastic return means 5 on the mobile 1 is then preferably applied in a median zone of the mobile 1, between the first housing 20 and the second housing 30.
  • the first housing 20 and the second housing 30 are oblong parallel to each other.
  • the mobile 1 comprises a heart 6 eccentric with respect to the axis of the first bearing 2 of the mobile 1.
  • the mobile 1 comprises driving means 7.
  • the invention also relates to a watchmaking mechanism comprising several mobiles, and comprising at least one such elementary mechanism 10.
  • the invention relates to a chronograph mechanism 200 comprising at least one such elementary mechanism 10.
  • the invention also relates to a watch 100 comprising such a chronograph mechanism 200, or / and comprising at least one such elementary mechanism 10.
  • the invention makes it possible to provide compensation with play catching up.
  • the invention still allows the use of one-piece hammers without retouching.
