On appellera « applique » un petit composant d'affichage comportant au moins un pied, tel qu'applique ou index dans leur dénomination usuelle, ou comportant un canon à la place d'un pied, tel qu'une aiguille.A small display component comprising at least one foot, as applied or indexed in their usual denomination, or comprising a barrel instead of a foot, such as a needle, will be referred to as "applique".

Différents aménagements plans de la palette peuvent être réalisés. Dans une variante particulière, au moins un logement 12, ou plus particulièrement chaque logement 12, est séparé des logements 12 adjacents. Cette séparation peut être réalisée par des bossages 19, qui peuvent eux-mêmes constituer des entretoises 15.Different flat layouts of the pallet can be realized. In a particular variant, at least one
Pour faciliter la gestion de production, dans une variante avantageuse, au moins une, ou plus particulièrement chaque palette 10 et/ou cale 30 comporte des moyens d'identification 50 de son dimensionnement, lisibles par un moyen de détection automatique, optique, magnétique, inductif, mécanique, ou autre, et/ou reconnaissables par un opérateur, notamment par un marquage coloré et/ou d'identification ; la palette 10 peut, notamment, être entièrement réalisée dans un coloris permettant son identification.To facilitate the production management, in an advantageous variant, at least one, or more particularly, each

L'invention concerne encore un procédé de fabrication de telles appliques 2 d'horlogerie.The invention also relates to a method of manufacturing
Selon l'invention :
- dans une étape 10 on se munit, pour chaque lot
de fabrication d'appliques 2, d'une hauteur d'applique HA donnée, d'au moinsun tel conditionnement 1 adapté à ce dimensionnement ; - dans une étape 20 on se munit de matière première utilisable par un tel moyen de
production automatisé 10 ; - dans une étape 30 on effectue au moins l'usinage des appliques 2 sur un tel moyen de
production automatisé 100, lequel dépose des appliques 2 usinées sur au moins unepalette 10 de dimensions adéquates ; - dans une étape 50 on effectue au moins un lavage des appliques 2 usinées en position sur leur
palette 10 ; - dans une étape 60 on effectue un visitage des appliques 2 en position sur leur
palette 10.
- in a
step 10 is provided, for each set of manufacture ofappliques 2, a given HA application height of at least onesuch conditioning 1 adapted to this dimensioning; - in a
step 20 is provided with raw material used by such automated production means 10; - in a
step 30 is performed at least the machining of theappliques 2 on such automated production means 100, whichdeposits 2 machined appliques on at least onepallet 10 of adequate dimensions; - in a
step 50 is carried out at least one wash of thesconces 2 machined in position on theirpallet 10; - in a

Plus particulièrement, après lavage et avant visitage final, on effectue sur ces appliques 2 usinées et maintenues en position sur leur palette 10, dans uen étape 40, au moins un traitement superficiel et/ou de recouvrement par une couche périphérique.More particularly, after washing and before final visit, is carried out on these
De façon particulière, on peut réaliser différentes versions de palettes 10, qui se distinguent notamment par:
- l'entraxe des alésages de réception de pieds, avec notamment des valeurs comprises entre 0.39 mm et 4.08 mm ;
- le diamètre de ces alésages, avec notamment des valeurs comprises entre 0.4 mm et 0.6 mm ;
- la hauteur des entretoises 15, définissant la distance entre les surfaces fonctionnelles de deux palettes successives, pour conserver la qualité des corps d'applique, avec notamment des valeurs d'espacement comprises entre 0.42 mm et 1.1 mm ;
- les moyens de repérage, notamment la couleur pour une identification rapide par les opérateurs de préparation.
- the spacing of the foot receiving bores, in particular with values between 0.39 mm and 4.08 mm;
- the diameter of these bores, with in particular values between 0.4 mm and 0.6 mm;
- the height of the
spacers 15, defining the distance between the functional surfaces of two successive pallets, to maintain the quality of the applique bodies, in particular with spacing values of between 0.42 mm and 1.1 mm; - the marking means, in particular the color for rapid identification by the preparation operators.
L'utilisation de telles palettes 10 est avantageuse, car elle permet :
- leur utilisation directement sur un moyen d'usinage grâce à un palettiseur ;
- une autonomie augmentée de la machine, suffisamment alimentée pour un lot de production par l'équipement d'une palette complète ;
- le lavage, ou un traitement de surface, ou un traitement thermique, ou autre, des composants directement sur les palettes ;
- le visitage des composants directement sur les palettes
- their use directly on a machining means through a palletizer;
- increased autonomy of the machine, sufficiently fed for a production batch by the equipment of a complete pallet;
- washing, or surface treatment, or heat treatment, or other components directly on the pallets;
- visiting components directly on the pallets
En effet, une fois sorties du moyen de production qui en assurent la mise en forme initiale, les appliques ne quittent plus la palette, afin de minimiser les coûts de manipulation, et de conserver au maximum la qualité esthétique du produit jusqu'à la livraison au client.Indeed, once out of the means of production that ensure the initial shaping, the appliques do not leave the palette, to minimize the costs of handling, and to preserve the maximum aesthetic quality of the product until delivery to the customer.
