Description

Domaine de l'inventionField of the invention

L'invention concerne un poussoir d'horlogerie, rétractable à baïonnette et extensible de façon télescopique, comportant, entre un canon agencé pour être fixé à une boîte et une tête actionnable par l'utilisateur et qui porte un organe de commande, des premiers moyens de rappel élastique tendant à écarter ladite tête dudit canon.The invention relates to a telescopically extendable bayonet retractable timepiece comprising, between a barrel arranged to be fixed to a box and a head actuable by the user and carrying a control member, first means elastic return tending to separate said head of said barrel.

L'invention concerne un dispositif de remontage agencé pour sa fixation à une structure d'une montre mécanique comportant une boîte enfermant au moins un barillet, par rapport à laquelle boîte est mobile une tige de commande au moins de mise à l'heure, ledit dispositif de remontage comportant un tel poussoir agencé pour entraîner indirectement au moins le tambour d'un dit barillet ou un rochet pour l'armage d'un dit barillet, ledit poussoir comportant un organe de commande mobile linéairement et agencé pour, sous une action d'un utilisateur, pour l'entraînement d'au moins une crémaillère.The invention relates to a winding device arranged for its attachment to a structure of a mechanical watch comprising a box enclosing at least one barrel, with respect to which box is movable a control rod at least of time setting, said winding device comprising such a pusher arranged to indirectly drive at least the drum of a said barrel or a ratchet for winding a said barrel, said pusher comprising a linearly movable control member and arranged for, under an action of a user, for driving at least one rack.

L'invention concerne encore une telle montre comportant un tel dispositif de remontage.The invention also relates to such a watch comprising such a winding device.

L'invention concerne le domaine des mécanismes de rechargement en énergie pour montres.The invention relates to the field of energy reloading mechanisms for watches.

Arrière-plan de l'inventionBackground of the invention

Le remontage manuel des montres mécaniques est toujours une préoccupation des fabricants, en raison des contraintes imprimées à la tige, et à l'usure des composants. En particulier, les montres de petite dimension sont malcommodes à remonter par la couronne, souvent peu accessible et de très petite taille.The manual winding of mechanical watches is still a concern of the manufacturers, because of the constraints impressed on the rod, and the wear of the components. In particular, watches of small size are inconvenient to go up by the crown, often not very accessible and of very small size.

Il est donc difficile à l'utilisateur de transmettre correctement des couples et efforts importants avec des couronnes et des poussoirs de très petit diamètre, dont l'accessibilité est parfois difficile, notamment sur des montres dame, pour lesquelles cette accessibilité peut encore être compliquée par la longueur des ongles de l'utilisatrice.It is therefore difficult for the user to correctly transmit large torques and efforts with crowns and pushers of very small diameter, the accessibility of which is sometimes difficult, especially on lady watches, for which this accessibility can be further complicated by the length of the user's nails.

D'autres mécanismes ont été réalisés, notamment par Léon Hatot, qui a réalisé, pour des montres de dame, des caches à volets recouvrant la couronne, et dont l'ouverture permettait un rechargement en énergie.Other mechanisms have been realized, in particular by Léon Hatot, who made, for lady's watches, shutters with covers covering the crown, and whose opening allowed a reloading of energy.

Parallèlement, de tels mécanismes permettent difficilement d'assurer une importante réserve de marche, en raison du grand nombre de cycles à effectuer pour un remontage complet. Par exemple il n'est pas rare de nécessiter plus de 20 tours de tige pour le remontage complet d'une petite montre dame comportant un barillet unique. Le rapport d'engrenage doit souvent être diminué, de façon à réduire le couple à appliquer au niveau de la couronne. Et l'encombrement disponible ne permet pas toujours de loger un mécanisme de remontage automatique.In parallel, such mechanisms make it difficult to ensure a significant power reserve, because of the large number of cycles to be performed for a complete reassembly. For example it is not uncommon to require more than 20 rounds of rod for the complete reassembly of a small lady's watch with a single barrel. The gear ratio must often be decreased, so as to reduce the torque to be applied at the crown. And the available space does not always allow to house an automatic winding mechanism.

Résumé de l'inventionSummary of the invention

L'invention se propose de définir un mécanisme de remontage plus facile à utiliser que la couronne usuelle, surtout pour des montres de petite dimension telles que des montres pour dame, et permettant d'effectuer un rechargement complet en énergie avec un nombre réduit de cycles de remontage.The invention proposes to define a winding mechanism easier to use than the usual crown, especially for small watches such as ladies' watches, and to perform a complete recharging of energy with a reduced number of cycles winding.

L'invention concerne un poussoir 2 d'horlogerie, rétractable à baïonnette et extensible de façon télescopique, qui comportant, entre un canon 21 agencé pour être fixé à une boîte 200 et une tête 7 actionnable par l'utilisateur et qui porte un organe de commande 8, des premiers moyens de rappel élastique 6 tendant à écarter la tête 7 du canon 21.The invention relates to a telescopic retractable push button 2 for horological purposes, which comprises, between a barrel 21 arranged to be fixed to a box 200 and a head 7 which can be actuated by the user and which carries a locking member. control 8, first elastic return means 6 tending to move the head 7 of the barrel 21.

Selon l'invention, cette tête 7 est mobile en translation par rapport à l'axe longitudinal du canon 21, entre deux fins de course extrêmes qui sont une position de butée PB, où la tête 7 est au plus près de la boîte 200, et dans laquelle position de butée PB la tête 7 a un degré de liberté en rotation par rapport à l'axe longitudinal du canon 21, et une position activée PA qui est une position d'élongation maximale, plus facilement accessible à l'utilisateur, et où la tête 7 est indexée en rotation par rapport à la boîte 200 dans une position angulaire indexée, cette tête 7 pouvant occuper, entre ces deux positions de butée PB et activée PA, une position de repos PR où la tête 7 est apte à être immobilisée longitudinalement par rapport au canon 21, dans au moins une position angulaire de blocage qui est différente de la position angulaire indexée.According to the invention, this head 7 is movable in translation relative to the longitudinal axis of the barrel 21, between two extreme limit stops which are a stop position PB, where the head 7 is as close as possible to the box 200, and in which abutment position PB the head 7 has a degree of freedom in rotation with respect to the longitudinal axis of the barrel 21, and an activated position PA which is a position of maximum elongation, more easily accessible to the user, and where the head 7 is indexed in rotation relative to the box 200 in an indexed angular position, this head 7 can occupy, between these two abutment positions PB and activated PA, a rest position PR where the head 7 is adapted to be immobilized longitudinally with respect to the barrel 21, in at least one angular locking position which is different from the indexed angular position.

Plus particulièrement, ce canon 21 comporte un premier alésage 22 de guidage d'un arbre 81 qui est fixé à la tête 7 et qui constitue l'organe de commande 8, pour l'entraînement, notamment mais non limitativement en translation, par poussée d'une crémaillère 4 ou d'un composant mobile d'horlogerie.More particularly, this barrel 21 comprises a first bore 22 for guiding a shaft 81 which is fixed to the head 7 and which constitutes the control member 8, for driving, in particular but not limited to translation, by means of thrust. a rack 4 or a mobile watch component.

L'invention concerne un dispositif de remontage 1 pour une montre mécanique 100. Une telle montre 100 comporte classiquement une boîte 200 enfermant au moins un barillet 300, notamment muni d'un rochet 400, par rapport à laquelle boîte 200 est mobile une tige 500 de commande au moins de mise à l'heure.The invention relates to a winding device 1 for a mechanical watch 100. Such a watch 100 conventionally comprises a box 200 enclosing at least one barrel 300, in particular provided with a ratchet 400, with respect to which box 200 is movable a rod 500 command at least set time.

Le dispositif de remontage 1 est agencé pour sa fixation à une structure 700 d'une telle montre mécanique 100, cette structure 700 pouvant être une platine ou un pont, ou similaire, d'un mouvement 600 destiné à être intégré dans la montre 100, ou encore la boîte 200 elle-même, ou un organe qu'elle comporte, tel que carrure, fond, ou autre.The winding device 1 is arranged for its attachment to a structure 700 of such a mechanical watch 100, this structure 700 can be a plate or a bridge, or the like, of a movement 600 intended to be integrated in the watch 100, or the box 200 itself, or an organ that it comprises, such as middle, bottom, or other.

Le dispositif de remontage 1 selon l'invention est polyvalent, puisqu'il peut constituer un dispositif de remontage principal, ou un dispositif de remontage auxiliaire en particulier dans le cas où la montre comporte aussi un dispositif de remontage automatique. Ce dispositif de remontage 1 peut alimenter en énergie aussi bien un barillet principal destiné à l'entraînement d'un mouvement 600, qu'un barillet secondaire pour une fonction secondaire, comme un chronographe ou encore un mécanisme de sonnerie, un automate, ou autre. Naturellement le dispositif de remontage 1 peut aussi être agencé pour l'entraînement d'une pluralité de rochets chacun liés à un barillet différent.The winding device 1 according to the invention is versatile, since it may constitute a main winding device, or an auxiliary winding device especially in the case where the watch also includes an automatic winding device. This winding device 1 can supply energy to both a main barrel for driving a movement 600, a secondary barrel for a secondary function, such as a chronograph or a striking mechanism, an automaton, or other . Naturally the winding device 1 can also be arranged for driving a plurality of ratchets each connected to a different barrel.

L'invention est illustrée par les figures dans le cas particulier et non limitatif de l'entraînement d'un barillet principal.The invention is illustrated by the figures in the particular and non-limiting case of driving a main cylinder.

Ce dispositif de remontage 1 comporte un tel poussoir 2, qui est agencé pour entraîner indirectement au moins un rochet 400 pour l'armage d'un barillet 300, ou pour entraîner indirectement le tambour de ce barillet 300.This winding device 1 comprises such a pusher 2, which is arranged to indirectly drive at least one ratchet 400 for winding a barrel 300, or to indirectly drive the drum of the barrel 300.

Ce poussoir 2 est mobile linéairement et agencé pour, sous une action d'un utilisateur, entraîner, notamment en translation comme dans le cas particulier illustré par les figures, au moins une crémaillère 4. On comprend que la crémaillère 4 peut avoir une course autre que linéaire, notamment une course circulaire, par exemple suivant le contour du mouvement si celui-ci est de forme ronde, ou autre. Dans l'exemple non limitatif des figures, la crémaillère 4 est guidée sur deux appuis 41, cette configuration convient également à une course circulaire de la crémaillère 4.This pusher 2 is linearly movable and arranged, under an action of a user, to cause, in particular in translation as in the particular case illustrated by the figures, at least one rack 4. It is understood that the rack 4 may have a different stroke than linear, including a circular stroke, for example following the contour of the movement if it is round, or other. In the non-limiting example of the figures, the rack 4 is guided on two supports 41, this configuration is also suitable for a circular race of the rack 4.

Selon l'invention, le poussoir 2 ne sert qu'au remontage, et est indépendant de la tige 500.According to the invention, the pusher 2 serves only for reassembly, and is independent of the rod 500.

Naturellement ceci n'empêche aucunement que la tige 500 comporte une fonction classique de remontage d'un réservoir en énergie de la montre, notamment un barillet.Naturally, this does not prevent the rod 500 from having a conventional function of reassembling an energy reservoir of the watch, in particular a barrel.

Il faut comprendre que le poussoir 2 n'utilise aucun rouage en relation avec la tige 500, et est indépendant pour aller commander directement la rotation d'un rochet.It should be understood that the pusher 2 uses no gear in relation to the rod 500, and is independent to go directly to control the rotation of a ratchet.

Ce poussoir 2 est extensible de façon télescopique, et comporte, entre un canon 21 agencé pour être fixé à la boîte 200 et une tête 7 actionnable par l'utilisateur et qui porte l'organe de commande 8, des premiers moyens de rappel élastique 6 qui tendent à écarter la tête 7 du canon 21.This pusher 2 is extendable telescopically, and comprises, between a barrel 21 arranged to be fixed to the box 200 and a head 7 actuated by the user and which carries the control member 8, first elastic return means 6 which tend to spread the head 7 of the barrel 21.

La tête 7 est mobile, de façon limitée, en rotation, et en translation, par rapport à l'axe longitudinal du canon 21The head 7 is movable, in a limited manner, in rotation, and in translation, with respect to the longitudinal axis of the barrel 21

La tête 7 est mobile en translation par rapport à l'axe longitudinal du canon 21, entre deux fins de course extrêmes : une position de butée PB, où cette tête 7 est au plus près de la boîte 200, par exemple dans un chambrage, dans laquelle position de butée PB la tête 7 a un degré de liberté en rotation par rapport à l'axe longitudinal du canon, et une position activée PA qui est une position d'élongation maximale, où elle est plus facilement accessible à l'utilisateur, et où elle est indexée en rotation par rapport à la boîte 200 dans une position angulaire indexée. Entre ces deux positions de butée PB et activée PA, la tête 7 peut occuper une position de repos où elle est immobilisée longitudinalement par rapport au canon 21, dans au moins une position angulaire de blocage, qui est différente de la position angulaire indexée.The head 7 is movable in translation relative to the longitudinal axis of the barrel 21, between two extreme end positions: a stop position PB, where this head 7 is as close to the box 200, for example in a recess, in which abutment position PB the head 7 has a degree of freedom in rotation with respect to the longitudinal axis of the barrel, and an activated position PA which is a position of maximum elongation, where it is more easily accessible to the user and where it is indexed in rotation relative to the box 200 in an indexed angular position. Between these two stop positions PB and activated PA, the head 7 can occupy a rest position where it is immobilized longitudinally relative to the barrel 21, in at least one locking angular position, which is different from the indexed angular position.

On comprend que la position de butée PB est une position transitoire qui n'est utilisée que pour un changement de position angulaire de la tête 7 par rapport au canon 21 : depuis la position angulaire indexée vers la position angulaire de blocage, ou inversement. C'est dans cette position de butée PB que l'utilisateur imprime à la tête 7 la rotation qui lui permet de changer de position angulaire, de 45° dans l'exemple particulier non limitatif des figures.It is understood that the abutment position PB is a transient position which is only used for a change of angular position of the head 7 relative to the barrel 21: from the angular position indexed to the blocking angular position, or vice versa. It is in this abutment position PB that the user prints at the head 7 the rotation which enables him to change angular position, by 45 ° in the particular nonlimiting example of the figures.

Certaines figures superposent la visualisation de ces trois positions, les repères numériques sont alors dans certains cas affectés de la lettre B butée, A activé ou R repos pour mieux les distinguer.Some figures overlay the visualization of these three positions, the numerical landmarks are then in some cases affected by the letter B abutment, A activated or R rest to better distinguish them.

La crémaillère 4 est mobile à l'encontre de deuxièmes moyens de rappel élastique 5, qui sont agencés pour opposer un effort résistant à la poussée de la crémaillère 4, et la ramène en début de course chaque fois que l'utilisateur lâche le poussoir 2.The rack 4 is movable against second resilient biasing means 5, which are arranged to oppose a force resistant to the thrust of the rack 4, and brings it back to the beginning of the stroke each time the user releases the pushbutton 2 .

Plus particulièrement, cette au moins une crémaillère 4 est montée glissante, et est guidée linéairement par des moyens de guidage, ou par au moins deux appuis 41 dans la réalisation illustrée non limitative, et coopère avec un mobile d'armage 42 qui engrène avec un râteau de renvoi 43. Ce râteau de renvoi 43 est actionné par au moins un ressort de rappel 44 que comportent les deuxièmes moyens de rappel élastique 5,More particularly, this at least one rack 4 is slidably mounted, and is guided linearly by guide means, or by at least two supports 41 in the illustrated nonlimiting embodiment, and cooperates with a mobile arming 42 which meshes with a return rake 43. This return rake 43 is actuated by at least one return spring 44 that comprises the second elastic return means 5,

Plus particulièrement le mobile d'armage 42 engrène avec un renvoi baladeur 45 lequel, selon son sens de rotation, engrène ou non, ou bien directement avec le rochet 400, ou bien, comme illustré sur les figures avec une couronne d'armage 46 qui elle-même engrène avec le rochet 400, pour l'armage du barillet 300 associé au rochet 400 sous l'effet d'un actionnement du poussoir 2.More particularly, the armoring device 42 meshes with a sliding gear 45 which, according to its direction of rotation, meshes with or not, or directly with the ratchet 400, or, as illustrated in the figures, with an armature ring 46 which it meshes with the ratchet 400, for the winding of the barrel 300 associated with the ratchet 400 under the effect of an actuation of the pusher 2.

On comprend que le choix des rapports d'engrenage entre le mobile d'armage 42, le renvoi baladeur 45, et la couronne d'armage 46, permet d'ajuster le nombre de cycles à effectuer pour obtenir un armage complet du barillet, ou d'augmenter le couple transmis lors de chaque cycle de remontage par action sur le poussoir 2 jusqu'en fin de course.It will be understood that the choice of the gear ratios between the armouring mobile 42, the sliding gear 45, and the armature ring 46 makes it possible to adjust the number of cycles to be performed in order to obtain a complete winding of the barrel, or to increase the torque transmitted during each winding cycle by action on the pusher 2 to the end of the race.

Plus particulièrement le mobile d'armage 42 engrène avec un renvoi baladeur 45 au travers d'au moins un pignon inverseur 47, selon la position du poussoir 2 dans la boîte 200, et le sens de rotation du ou des barillets. Naturellement il est possible d'interposer, si nécessaire, un rouage plus long entre le mobile d'armage 42 et le renvoi baladeur 45, avec autant de renvois et d'inverseurs que nécessaire.More particularly, the armoring mobile 42 meshes with a sliding gear 45 through at least one reversing pinion 47, according to the position of the pusher 2 in the box 200, and the direction of rotation of the barrel or barrels. Naturally it is possible to interpose, if necessary, a longer wheel train between the armor mobile 42 and the wheel drive 45, with as many referrals and inverters as necessary.

Dans le cas illustré non limitatif, qui concerne un calibre de montre dame de très petite taille, le rapport se fait seulement entre le mobile d'armage 42 et le rochet 400, en effet il est facile d'adapter le dimensionnement du mobile d'armage 42 en fonction du rapport souhaité. Plus particulièrement, le renvoi baladeur 45, le pignon inverseur 47 éventuel, et la couronne d'armage 46, font office de renvoi, avec un rapport 1, il est naturellement possible de modifier ce rapport avec des mobiles avec pignons et roues, mais au détriment de l'encombrement.In the illustrated nonlimiting example, which concerns a lady watch caliber of very small size, the ratio is only between the armor 42 and the ratchet 400, in fact it is easy to adapt the sizing of the mobile phone. arming 42 according to the desired ratio. More particularly, the sliding guide 45, the possible reversing gear 47, and the armature ring 46 serve as a reference, with a report 1, it is naturally possible to modify this ratio with mobiles with gears and wheels, but at the expense of congestion.

On comprend que la présence de la couronne d'armage 46 ou/et du pignon inverseur 47 est imposée par le positionnement relatif entre le barillet 300 et le dispositif de remontage 1 selon l'invention, non seulement en termes d'écartement, mais aussi en fonction de leur positionnement angulaire relatif par rapport à la boîte de montre, le sens de rotation du barillet 300 lors de son désarmage étant imposé par le sens de marche du rouage du mouvement d'horlogerie 600 auquel ce barillet 300 fournit de l'énergie.It is understood that the presence of the armature ring 46 and / or the reversing pinion 47 is imposed by the relative positioning between the barrel 300 and the winding device 1 according to the invention, not only in terms of spacing, but also according to their relative angular position relative to the watch case, the direction of rotation of the barrel 300 during its disarming being imposed by the direction of movement of the watch movement 600 to which the barrel 300 provides energy .

Plus particulièrement le dispositif de remontage 1 comporte un troisième moyen de rappel élastique, ou un cliquet 48 anti-retour muni d'un ressort 480, ou encore un ressort sautoir ou similaire, pour prévenir le désarmage du barillet, et coopérant avec la couronne d'armage 46 ou avec le rochet 400. Le renvoi baladeur 45 peut donc dégrener facilement de la couronne d'armage 46 sans recevoir de tension adverse.More particularly, the winding device 1 comprises a third elastic return means, or a non-return pawl 48 provided with a spring 480, or a jumper spring or the like, to prevent disarming of the barrel, and cooperating with the crown of the barrel. arming 46 or with the ratchet 400. The sliding guide 45 can therefore easily disengage from the armature ring 46 without receiving any adverse voltage.

Dans la réalisation illustrée, ce cliquet 48 est sur la couronne d'armage 46, plutôt que sur le rochet 400, pour une optimisation de place, en raison d'une configuration de mouvement à faible épaisseur disponible, qui empêche de placer le cliquet sur le rochet, ou bien un ressort-sautoir ayant la même fonction, comme ce pourrait être le cas sur un plus gros calibre.In the illustrated embodiment, this pawl 48 is on the winding crown 46, rather than on the ratchet 400, for space optimization, due to a low thickness available motion configuration, which prevents placing the pawl on the ratchet, or a spring jumper having the same function, as it could be the case on a larger gauge.

Dans la réalisation illustrée, lors de la course d'aller (en poussée de la crémaillère 4), le baladeur embraye, dans la course de retour le baladeur débraye. Cette configuration est préférée à la configuration inverse, qui nécessiterait un surdimensionnement inutile du ressort de rappel de la crémaillère 4.In the illustrated embodiment, during the race to go (in thrust of the rack 4), the player engages, in the return race the player disengages. This configuration is preferred to the opposite configuration, which would require an unnecessary oversizing of the return spring of the rack 4.

Plus particulièrement, et tel que visible sur la réalisation illustrée par les figures, la première course linéaire de la tête 7 est parallèle à la deuxième course linéaire de la crémaillère 4.More particularly, and as visible in the embodiment illustrated by the figures, the first linear stroke of the head 7 is parallel to the second linear stroke of the rack 4.

Dans une autre variante non illustrée, la première course linéaire de la tête 7 n'est pas parallèle à la deuxième course linéaire de la crémaillère 4, et l'organe de commande 8 coopère avec une crémaillère 4 par une liaison articulée, par exemple avec un bras intermédiaire comportant une première articulation avec l'organe de commande 8, et une deuxième articulation avec la crémaillère 4, ou similaire. De telles articulations peuvent être réalisées classiquement par des goupilles d'articulation, ou bien cette liaison articulée est faite en utilisant un composant en matériau micro-usinable, tel que silicium ou similaire, comportant une pluralité de cols formant autant d'articulations, ce composant étant interposé entre la crémaillère 4 et l'organe de commande 8, ou encore solidarisé avec la crémaillère 4, avec laquelle, il peut, encore, être réalisé de façon monobloc. Dans une autre variante encore, la liaison en poussée entre l'organe de commande 8 et la crémaillère 4 se fait par des surfaces pentées faisant coins.In another variant not illustrated, the first linear stroke of the head 7 is not parallel to the second linear stroke of the rack 4, and the control member 8 cooperates with a rack 4 by an articulated connection, for example with an intermediate arm having a first articulation with the control member 8, and a second articulation with the rack 4, or the like. Such joints can be conventionally produced by hinge pins, or this articulated connection is made using a component micro-machinable material, such as silicon or the like, comprising a plurality of necks forming as many joints, this component being interposed between the rack 4 and the control member 8, or else secured to the rack 4, with which it can still be made in one piece. In yet another variant, the thrust connection between the control member 8 and the rack 4 is made by sloping surfaces forming corners.

Plus particulièrement, dans une réalisation avantageuse illustrée par les figures, le poussoir 2 est un poussoir rétractable à baïonnette, et comporte un canon 21 agencé pour être vissé ou/et collé dans une implantation 201 de la boîte 200. Ce canon 21 qui comporte un premier alésage 22, pour le guidage d'un arbre 81 qui est fixé à la tête 7, par exemple par un filetage 29 et un taraudage 79, ou similaire, et qui constitue l'organe de commande 8 pour l'entraînement, notamment en translation, de la au moins une crémaillère 4. Plus particulièrement, au moins un joint 92 est interposé entre le premier alésage 22 et l'arbre 81, pour assurer l'étanchéité de l'intérieur de la boîte 200.More particularly, in an advantageous embodiment illustrated by the figures, the pusher 2 is a retractable pusher bayonet, and comprises a barrel 21 arranged to be screwed or / and glued into an implantation 201 of the box 200. This gun 21 which comprises a first bore 22, for guiding a shaft 81 which is fixed to the head 7, for example by a thread 29 and a tapping 79, or the like, and which constitutes the control member 8 for the drive, particularly in translation, of the at least one rack 4. More particularly, at least one seal 92 is interposed between the first bore 22 and the shaft 81, to seal the inside of the box 200.

Dans la réalisation non limitative illustrée, l'arbre 81 comporte, à son extrémité, une vis 80 qui comporte une surface frontale lisse, plus particulièrement plane, exempte de fente, son entraînement se faisant par un profil périphérique, de façon à ne pas accrocher la crémaillère 4 lors d'une rotation du poussoir 2 autour de son axe longitudinal. Cette vis 80 sert encore, avantageusement, de butée arrière pour éviter l'extraction de l'arbre 81, tel que visible notamment sur la figure 9 où la tête de cette vis 80 vient en appui sur un arrêt d'extrémité 91, qui peut être un arrêt mécanique tel que circlips, bague fendue, ou similaire, ou encore un joint.In the nonlimiting embodiment illustrated, the shaft 81 comprises, at its end, a screw 80 which has a smooth front surface, more particularly flat, free of slits, its driving being done by a peripheral profile, so as not to hang the rack 4 during a rotation of the pusher 2 about its longitudinal axis. This screw 80 is still advantageously used as a rear stop to prevent extraction of the shaft 81, as can be seen in particular on the figure 9 where the head of this screw 80 bears on an end stop 91, which may be a mechanical stop such as circlips, split ring, or the like, or a seal.

Plus particulièrement et tel que visible sur la figure 7, le poussoir 2 constitue un module indépendant agencé pour pousser une crémaillère 4, et qui peut être inséré d'un bloc dans l'implantation 201 de la boîte 200 d'une montre 100. De préférence, mais non limitativement, l'insertion du canon 21 est faite à demeure, par vissage ou/et collage ou similaire.More particularly and as visible on the figure 7 , the pusher 2 constitutes an independent module arranged to push a rack 4, and which can be inserted in a block in the implantation 201 of the box 200 of a watch 100. Preferably, but not exclusively, the insertion of the barrel 21 is made permanently, by screwing or / and gluing or the like.

Plus particulièrement le canon 21 comporte, connexe à une collerette 23 d'appui de butée qui est destinée à venir en appui sur une face de la boîte 200, une portée cylindrique 24 sur laquelle coulisse un alésage 72 de la tête 7. Au moins une gorge longitudinale 25 parallèle à l'axe du canon 21 est ménagée en périphérie de cette portée cylindrique 24, tel que visible sur la figure 7. Un ergot 73 qui est solidaire avec une extrémité frontale 71 de la tête 7 coulisse dans cette gorge longitudinale 25 lors d'une translation relative entre la tête 7 et le canon 21, dans une position angulaire particulière de la tête 7 qui est une position angulaire de liberté.More particularly, the barrel 21 comprises, connected to a collar 23 of abutment bearing which is intended to bear on one face of the box 200, a cylindrical bearing surface 24 on which a bore 72 of the head 7 slides. At least one longitudinal groove 25 parallel to the axis of the barrel 21 is provided at the periphery of this cylindrical seat 24, as visible on the figure 7 . A lug 73 which is integral with a front end 71 of the head 7 slides in this longitudinal groove 25 during a relative translation between the head 7 and the barrel 21, in a particular angular position of the head 7 which is an angular position of freedom.

Cette au moins une gorge longitudinale 25 débouche, au voisinage de la collerette 23, dans un dégagement 27 formant un profil de baïonnette apte à recevoir l'ergot 73 lors d'une rotation appropriée de la tête 7 par rapport au canon 21, pour former un arrêt axial de la tête 7 par rapport au canon 21, la tête 7 est alors dans une position angulaire de blocage. Le sens de rotation est indifférent, et est choisi lors de la définition ergonomique du produit.This at least one longitudinal groove 25 opens, in the vicinity of the flange 23, in a clearance 27 forming a bayonet profile adapted to receive the lug 73 during a suitable rotation of the head 7 relative to the barrel 21, to form an axial stop of the head 7 relative to the barrel 21, the head 7 is then in an angular locking position. The direction of rotation is indifferent, and is chosen during the ergonomic definition of the product.

Plus particulièrement le canon 21 comporte une première chambre 28 alignée avec une deuxième chambre 78 que comporte la tête 7 pour la réception d'un ressort 31 tendant à écarter la tête 7 du canon 21, le ressort 31 constituant les premiers moyens de rappel élastique 6.More particularly, the barrel 21 comprises a first chamber 28 aligned with a second chamber 78 that includes the head 7 for receiving a spring 31 tending to separate the head 7 of the barrel 21, the spring 31 constituting the first elastic return means 6 .

Plus particulièrement, le dégagement 27 comporte un logement 270 agencé pour loger l'ergot 73 dans une position de repos, et qui est séparé de la gorge longitudinale 25 par un arrêt périphérique 29 interdisant toute rotation de la tête 7 quand l'ergot 73 est logé dans le logement 270 en l'absence de mouvement axial de la tête 7. La tête 7 est alors dans la position de repos référencée PR pour les figures, et dans la position angulaire de blocage, et, pour l'en libérer afin d'effectuer un remontage, il convient d'exercer sur la tête 7 une pression tendant à la rapprocher de la collerette 23 du canon 21, jusqu'à la position de butée PB, qui est une position transitoire et qui est suffisamment loin pour permettre le dégagement entre l'ergot 73 et l'arrêt périphérique 29, l'utilisateur ne peut pousser davantage la tête 7. L'utilisateur peut alors, ensuite, imprimer à la tête 7 une rotation l'amenant dans la position angulaire indexée, qui autorise la liberté longitudinale, le ressort 31 pousse alors la tête 7 vers la position active PA, où le ressort 31 est dans sa position la plus détendue, et depuis laquelle l'utilisateur peut manoeuvrer la tête 7 et effectuer le remontage du barillet par un certain nombre de pressions successives. Cette rotation est de 45° dans l'exemple non limitatif des figures.More particularly, the clearance 27 comprises a housing 270 arranged to accommodate the lug 73 in a rest position, and which is separated from the longitudinal groove 25 by a peripheral stop 29 preventing any rotation of the head 7 when the lug 73 is housed in the housing 270 in the absence of axial movement of the head 7. The head 7 is then in the rest position referenced PR for the figures, and in the angular locking position, and to release it in order to to carry out a reassembly, it is necessary to exert on the head 7 a pressure tending to bring it closer to the flange 23 of the barrel 21, to the abutment position PB, which is a transient position and which is sufficiently far to allow the clearance between the lug 73 and the peripheral stop 29, the user can not further push the head 7. The user can then, then print at the head 7 a rotation to the indexed angular position, which allows freedom lo ngitudinale, the spring 31 then pushes the head 7 to the active position PA, where the spring 31 is in its most relaxed position, and from which the user can maneuver the head 7 and perform the winding of the barrel by a number of successive pressures. This rotation is 45 ° in the non-limiting example of the figures.

De préférence, seule une extrémité moletée, ou similaire, de la tête 7, ainsi qu'une portée externe 77, dépassent de la boîte 200, le mécanisme du poussoir 2 reste ainsi caché, et protégé, dans la boîte 200 à tout moment.Preferably, only a knurled end, or the like, of the head 7, as well as an outer bearing 77, protrude from the box 200, the mechanism of the pusher 2 thus remains hidden, and protected, in the box 200 at any time.

Dans le cas particulier illustré par les figures, le canon 21 comporte deux gorges identiques à baïonnette, décalées de 180°.In the particular case illustrated by the figures, the barrel 21 has two identical bayonet grooves, offset by 180 °.

L'invention est illustrée ici avec un poussoir 2 à simple étage. Il est naturellement possible de fabriquer un mécanisme analogue, avec une course linéaire plus importante, sous la forme d'un poussoir multi-étages, ces étages étant internes et coaxiaux les uns aux autres, et comportant chacun des moyens de rappel tendant à son élongation maximale.The invention is illustrated here with a pusher 2 single stage. It is naturally possible to manufacture a similar mechanism, with a greater linear stroke, in the form of a multi-stage pusher, these stages being internal and coaxial with each other, and each comprising means of return tending to its elongation Max.

Plus particulièrement le dispositif de remontage 1 constitue un module indépendant de la tige 300 et qui est agencé pour être fixé à la boîte 200.More particularly, the winding device 1 constitutes a module independent of the rod 300 and which is arranged to be fixed to the box 200.

L'invention concerne encore un mouvement d'horlogerie 600 comportant une telle structure 700, sur laquelle est fixé au moins un dispositif de remontage 1 selon l'invention.The invention also relates to a watch movement 600 comprising such a structure 700, on which is fixed at least one winding device 1 according to the invention.

Le poussoir 2 est conçu pour être logé n'importe où dans la montre. Par exemple, les figures illustrent un poussoir 2 qui est situé sensiblement à 8 heures, ce qui explique le besoin d'un pignon inverseur 47 pour entraîner le rochet dans le bon sens. Ce pignon inverseur ne serait pas nécessaire dans une autre configuration, par exemple avec le poussoir 2 sensiblement à 4 heures. Ainsi l'invention permet le placement du poussoir 2 dans tout emplacement comportant un volume disponible, ce qui est avantageux.The pusher 2 is designed to be housed anywhere in the watch. For example, the figures illustrate a pusher 2 which is located substantially at 8 o'clock, which explains the need for a reversing pinion 47 to drive the ratchet in the right direction. This reversing gear would not be necessary in another configuration, for example with the pusher 2 substantially at 4 o'clock. Thus the invention allows the placement of the pusher 2 in any location with an available volume, which is advantageous.

Dans une réalisation particulière, avec un mouvement d'une largeur de 13.2 mm, la course de la crémaillère est de 2.7mm. Le poussoir 2 doit être adapté à cette longue course de la crémaillère. De préférence, les courses du poussoir et de la crémaillère sont voisines, voire identiques. Il faut que la position de blocage se fasse au poussoir et non dans le mécanisme, car, à la différence d'un poussoir habituel, il faut effectuer la butée dans le poussoir, pour avoir accès au dégagement de la baïonnette. Il s'agit en fait de profiter au mieux de l'espace disponible. Si la largeur du mouvement était de 20 mm et non de 13.2mm, on pourrait obtenir des courses beaucoup plus grandes. L'invention tire un bon parti d'un mouvement rectangulaire, qui offre beaucoup d'espace disponible dès qu'on se désaxe de la tige, et ceci dans toute la largeur du mouvement. Dans ce cas particulier, la course de la tête 7 du poussoir 2 est de 2.7mm, la course à vide de la vis 80 avant de toucher la crémaillère 4 en butée début de course est de 0.1 mm, la course disponible entre les butées de la crémaillère sur les appuis 41 est de 2.7mm, et la course utile de la crémaillère pour armer le barillet est de 2.6mm, en raison de 0.1 mm de course du poussoir qui est consacrée à la sécurité de la crémaillère fin course et position butée crémaillère.In a particular embodiment, with a movement of a width of 13.2 mm, the race of the rack is 2.7 mm. The pusher 2 must be adapted to this long race of the rack. Preferably, the strokes of the pusher and the rack are similar, or even identical. It is necessary that the blocking position is done with the pusher and not in the mechanism, because, unlike a usual pusher, it is necessary to make the stop in the pusher, to have access to the release of the bayonet. It's really about making the most of the available space. If the width of the movement was 20 mm and not 13.2 mm, we could get much bigger races. The invention makes good use of a rectangular movement, which offers a lot of space available as soon as one is offset from the rod, and this throughout the width of the movement. In this particular case, the stroke of the head 7 of the pusher 2 is 2.7 mm, the idle stroke of the screw 80 before touching the rack 4 at the start stop is 0.1 mm, the stroke available between the stops of the rack on the supports 41 is of 2.7mm, and the useful race of the rack to arm the barrel is of 2.6mm, because of 0.1 mm of stroke of the pusher which is devoted to the security of the end rack stroke and stop position rack.

L'invention ne met en oeuvre, avantageusement, que trois moyens de rappel: les premiers moyens de rappel élastique 6 (ressort 31) qui tendent à écarter la tête 7 du canon 21, les deuxièmes moyens de rappel élastique 5 qui rappellent la crémaillère, et les troisièmes moyens de rappel élastique coopérant avec la couronne d'armage 46 ou avec le rochet 400, qui peuvent être constitués par le ressort 480 du cliquet 48 dans la variante non limitative illustrée par les figures. Le produit est globalement ergonomique, avec un poussoir rétractable, dont l'intérêt c'est d'avoir une grande course, mais invisible. L'utilisateur n'est pas gêné lorsque le poussoir est caché. La force de rappel de la crémaillère doit être la plus faible possible, dimensionnée pour vaincre les frottements passifs.
Le même principe s'applique au poussoir. Les efforts de rappel de ces premiers et deuxièmes moyens de rappel sont similaires et du même ordre, sans spéciale importance pour le fonctionnement du produit, l'essentiel étant que chacun arrive à vaincre les possibles coincements des composants du mécanisme qu'il anime.The invention uses, advantageously, only three return means: the first elastic return means 6 (spring 31) which tend to move the head 7 of the barrel 21, the second elastic return means 5 which recall the rack, and the third elastic return means cooperating with the armature ring 46 or the ratchet 400, which can be constituted by the spring 480 of the pawl 48 in the nonlimiting variant illustrated by the figures. The product is overall ergonomic, with a retractable pusher, whose interest is to have a great race, but invisible. The user is not embarrassed when the pusher is hidden. The restoring force of the rack must be as low as possible, sized to overcome passive friction.
The same principle applies to the pusher. The recall efforts of these first and second return means are similar and of the same order, with no special importance for the operation of the product, the main thing being that everyone manages to overcome the possible jamming of the components of the mechanism it animates.

L'invention concerne encore une montre mécanique 100, comportant une boîte 200 enfermant au moins un barillet 300 muni d'un rochet 400, par rapport à laquelle boîte 200 est mobile une tige 500 de commande au moins de mise à l'heure, la montre 100 comportant une telle structure 700 à laquelle est fixé un dispositif de remontage 1 selon l'invention, ou comportant un tel mouvement 600, et cette boîte 200 comporte au moins une implantation 201 pour le logement d'un poussoir 2, qui est distante de la tige 500.The invention also relates to a mechanical watch 100, comprising a box 200 enclosing at least one barrel 300 provided with a ratchet 400, with respect to which box 200 is movable a rod 500 of at least control time, the shows 100 having such a structure 700 to which is attached a winding device 1 according to the invention, or having such a movement 600, and this box 200 comprises at least one implantation 201 for housing a pusher 2, which is distant of the stem 500.
