Description

Domaine de l'inventionField of the invention

L'invention concerne un panier de lavage pour composants d'horlogerie ou bijouterie-joaillerie, comportant un réceptacle agencé pour la réception de composants, le réceptacle comportant au moins un fond agencé pour servir de surface d'appui à des composants, et au moins une cloison périphérique agencée pour retenir les composants dans le réceptacle et délimitant une séparation entre le volume intérieur du réceptacle, et un milieu extérieur au panier de lavage, ce panier comportant une pluralité d'orifices de circulation agencés pour permettre la circulation de fluides de lavage et/ou séchage au travers du fond et/ou de cette au moins une cloison périphérique.The invention relates to a washing basket for timepieces or jewelery-making components, comprising a receptacle arranged for the reception of components, the receptacle comprising at least one bottom arranged to serve as a support surface for components, and at least one a peripheral wall arranged to retain the components in the receptacle and delimiting a separation between the interior volume of the receptacle, and a medium outside the washing basket, this basket comprising a plurality of circulation holes arranged to allow the circulation of washing fluids and / or drying through the bottom and / or at least one peripheral wall.

L'invention concerne encore une machine de lavage de composants d'horlogerie ou bijouterie-joaillerie, comportant de tels paniers.The invention also relates to a washing machine for timepieces or jewelery-making components, comprising such baskets.

L'invention concerne le domaine du lavage et du séchage des pièces d'horlogerie et de joaillerie-bijouterie.The invention relates to the field of washing and drying timepieces and jewelery.

Arrière-plan de l'inventionBackground of the invention

Le lavage des composants d'horlogerie ou similaire est une opération importante, qui conditionne les performances et la durée de vie du produit terminé, et donc la réputation du fabricant. Les composants sont déposés, pour cette opération, dans des paniers de lavage. Deux types de paniers sont les plus répandus : les paniers en acier (notamment acier inoxydable ou acier galvanisé), et les paniers en matière plastique.The washing of watch components or the like is an important operation, which determines the performance and life of the finished product, and therefore the reputation of the manufacturer. The components are deposited for this operation in washing baskets. Two types of baskets are the most common: steel baskets (especially stainless steel or galvanized steel), and plastic baskets.

Les paniers en acier sont d'une grande efficacité dans des machines de nettoyage avec système de séchage intégré, mais ils présentent l'inconvénient de détériorer les composants, notamment suite à des chocs.The steel baskets are highly effective in cleaning machines with integrated drying system, but they have the disadvantage of damaging the components, especially following shocks.

Les paniers en matière plastique ne blessent pas les composants, mais ne permettent pas un séchage optimal, en raison d'un résidu d'humidité subsistant sur les composants en fin de cycle de séchage.The plastic baskets do not injure the components, but do not allow optimal drying, due to residual moisture remaining on the components at the end of the drying cycle.

Le contexte propre aux composants d'horlogerie et de bijouterie-joaillerie se caractérise par des très petites dimensions des composants lavés, ce qui se traduit par la nécessité d'utiliser des paniers avec des orifices de diamètre convenable pour éviter toute perte ou tout coincement de composant au travers d'un orifice, ces très petits diamètres ne permettent pas un bon écoulement des fluides, ni une bonne évacuation des résidus.The context of watch and jewelry components is characterized by very small dimensions of the washed components, which results in the need to use baskets with openings of suitable diameter to prevent any loss or jamming of the components. component through an orifice, these very small diameters do not allow a good flow of fluids, nor a good evacuation of residues.

Résumé de l'inventionSummary of the invention

L'invention se propose de mettre au point des paniers qui permettent un séchage optimal, avec le moins possible d'altérations des composants.The invention proposes to develop baskets that allow optimal drying, with the least possible alterations of the components.

Le principe est d'optimiser la géométrie des orifices, et la géométrie des cloisons de séparation des paniers en matière plastique, qui présentent l'avantage primordial de ne pas détériorer les composants lavés et séchés.The principle is to optimize the geometry of the orifices, and the geometry of the partition walls of the plastic baskets, which have the primary advantage of not damaging the washed and dried components.

A cet effet, l'invention concerne un panier de lavage selon la revendication 1.For this purpose, the invention relates to a washing basket according to claim 1.

L'invention concerne encore une machine de lavage selon la revendication 15.The invention further relates to a washing machine according to claim 15.
