  • the invention aims to provide a new user interface which is more adapted to a watch, in particular to a smart watch comprising electronic and/or communication functions, than these classic solutions, which can also operate in a humid environment, or even in the water, or with wet hands, while having good protection against shock.
  • the invention relates to a watch case according to claim 1.
  • the invention also relates to a watch comprising such a box, arranged to contain a watch movement, the display or watch functions of which are arranged to be controlled by sensor means which this box comprises.
  • the invention relates to a watch case 1, comprising a housing 2 in which at least one wheel 3 for controlling a display or a function of the watch is movable, at least in rotation.
  • This wheel 3 is arranged to be manipulated directly by the user of the watch at a peripheral contact surface 4.
  • the name "box” is to be taken in the broad sense: this box 1 can naturally be a middle part or similar .
  • THE figures 1 and 2 show such a box 1, in which the housing 2 is a groove in the form of a groove, with, on either side of a bottom 20, an interior partition 21 and an exterior partition 22.
  • This exterior partition 22 is interrupted between two edges 23 and 24, arranged to define an opening through which a user can operate a wheel 3 inserted in the housing 2, as visible on the Figure 5 .
  • housing 2 allows the insertion, with play, of such a wheel 3, and in particular allows the wheel 3 to be able to rotate and translate over a short distance, for example and not limited to in the direction 3 o'clock-9 o'clock on the box 1 illustrated by the figures, and with an opening so that the user of the watch can perform two movements: radially push the wheel 3, and rotate it.
  • this housing 2 is arranged to authorize a limited translational movement, between an inner end of stroke and an outer end of stroke, of at least part 30 of the wheel 3 in a radial direction of the box 1 , against elastic return means 5 which are arranged to move part 30 away from the inside of the box 1.
  • part 30 is not always the same: it is only the part of the wheel 3, which faces at a given moment the opening, defined in the figures by the two edges 23 and 24.
  • the figures illustrate a particular variant, where the housing 2 of the wheel 3 is in the immediate vicinity of the periphery of the box 1.
  • the wheel 3 surrounds a movement 100, without direct contact with it.
  • the elastic return means 5 ensure the function of repelling the wheel 3 towards the outside of the box 1 when at rest, at the level of the opening.
  • the box 1 further comprises at least a first control detection means 7, which is arranged to detect the presence of the part 30 of the wheel 3 as close as possible to the center of the box 1 when pressed by a user, and in particular at the end of the interior stroke.
  • the box 1 can be provided with a pusher 54 constituting these elastic return means 5, which constrains the wheel 3 in an extreme position in the direction in which it can translate, in position 3h in the particular case of the figures. More particularly, this pusher 54 comprises a head 53 in the form of a pad to facilitate the rotation of the wheel 3. On the interior side of the box 1, this pusher 54, which here passes through the interior partition 21, comprises a tail arranged to cooperate with a first control detection means 7. Due to its small dimensions, such a pusher 54 hardly poses any sealing problems.
  • FIG. 4 shows the system when the wheel 3 is pressed by a user: its local zone 30 translates from the position at 3 o'clock to the position at 9 o'clock, the pusher 54 is pushed towards the inside of the box 1. For example we detect this pressure by an electronic module in the movement 100 of the watch 200.
  • This first detection means 7 is arranged to activate or deactivate sensor means 8 which the box 1 comprises near the housing 2, which sensor means 8 are arranged to detect, during a rotational movement printed by the user at the wheel 3, the passage of transmitter means 9 that wheel 3 comprises.
  • the transmitter means 9 are discontinuous, and arranged according to different angular steps around the wheel 3.
  • the sensor means 8 are kept distant from the transmitter means 9, it is then a contactless interaction.
  • At least one of the sensor means 8 is arranged to detect the direction of passage and/or the reversal of direction of passage of a transmitter means 9.
  • At least one of the sensor means 8 is arranged to detect the angular difference between two successive transmitter means 9.
  • At least two of the sensor means 8 are arranged to detect the passage of the same transmitter means 9.
  • At least one of the sensor means 8 is arranged to measure the angle of rotation of the wheel 3, traveled since a control detection carried out by the first detection means 7.
  • At least one of the sensor means 8 is arranged to change position when a transmitter means 9 passes near it. More particularly, such sensor means 8 constitutes a mechanical rocker, arranged to control a mechanical or electronic function of a clock movement 100 contained in the box 1.
  • the mechanism according to the invention can, thus, in a particular variant, be completely mechanical.
  • the combination of mobile triggering and stopping function components can also be sequential. For example, any movement of rotating the wheel can successively trigger, on a chronograph mechanism, the starting, stopping, and resetting to zero.
  • the box 1 comprises control means 10, which are arranged to manage the signals transmitted and received at the level of the first detection means 7 and the sensor means 8, to activate or deactivate these sensor means 8, and to , when the sensor means 8 are activated, analyze the number of transmitter means 9 identified by the sensor means 8, and/or the angular deviation of the transmitter means 9 in pairs, and/or the directions of passage of the transmitter means 9, to transform the result of the analysis into a display or activation order for a watch function, addressed to a movement clockwork 100 contained in box 1. More particularly, the detection means 7, and/or the sensor means 8, and/or the control means 10, are of the electronic type.
  • the wheel 3 is flexible and itself constitutes the elastic return means 5.
  • the housing 2 can consist of a perfectly annular groove of revolution, and the pusher 54, arranged for the detection of the support pressure, advantageously plays the additional role of a tensioner of this flexible wheel 3, and locally gives the circular shape to this flexible wheel 3.

  • the wheel 3 is annular, and the housing 2 is an oval comprising two half-rings connected by two straight sections, as visible on the Figure 11 .
  • each half-ring is not strictly of revolution, but the outermost circle, opening onto the opening, has an eccentricity, a little greater than the value of the offset between the two interior circles, so as to what the wheel 3 protrudes from one side of the middle but not from the other.
  • housing for example substantially elliptical, or even substantially annular, of variable width, and whose projection on any parallel to the radial direction of the box 1 is at least equal to the distance between the end of inner stroke and the outer limit of stroke.
  • the housing 2 is shaped such that the clearance is as small as possible between the wheel 3 and the interior 21 and exterior 22 partitions, without causing excessive friction.
  • the first detection means 7 is a switch actuated by the elastic return means 5 or by a pusher 54 included in the elastic return means 5.
  • the wheel 3 is provided with magnets which constitute the transmitter means 9, in particular but not limited to arranged regularly around its entire circumference, which allows the detection of the rotation of the wheel 3, via one or more sensors inside the middle which constitute the sensor means 8.

  • these magnets 91 are arranged at a constant angular pitch around the wheel 3.
  • these magnets 91 are arranged at different angular pitches around the wheel 3.
  • the wheel 3 comprises, on one face arranged to cooperate with the bottom 20 of the housing 2, a relief 31 which is arranged to cooperate with a complementary relief 21 which the bottom 20 comprises, for braking by detenting when rotating the dial 3.

  • this ring 39 in relief is an elastic ring.
  • this ring 39 in relief comprises at least one radial stop tab 38, arranged to cooperate in a complementary manner with a recess 28 of the housing 2.
  • the box 1 comprises a cover 19 or a bezel or a bottom, or even an additional spacer, this component being arranged to enclose the wheel 3 in the box 1, as visible on the Figure 5 .
  • the principle of the invention is applicable to numerous variants, depending on the space available in the watch case, the thickness thereof, and the number of functions to be controlled.
  • Figure 17 illustrates a box 1 with two openings at 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock, with a pusher 54 facing each of these openings.
  • Wheel 3 is accessible at 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock, and the presence of a pusher 54 on each side allows navigation in the menus: activation of rotation detection at 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock, then "validation ok” at 3 o'clock and “return” to 9 a.m. (or vice versa).
  • FIG. 15 and 16 Another box variant, illustrated in figures 15 and 16 , has four non-detailed pushers (possibly some of which are without rotation detection) and an adapted geometry of the wheel to do without a part for vertical locking (no bezel or back ring).
  • FIG. 18 illustrates an example with two 3X and 3Y dials, the box 1 having for example but not limited to two diametrically opposed openings, one for each dial.

  • the invention also relates to a watch 200 comprising such a box 1, arranged to contain a clock movement 100, the display or watch functions of which are arranged to be controlled by sensor means 8 of the box 1.
  • the mechanism according to the invention has various advantages.
  • this system is without risk for the water resistance of the watch, the areas to be sealed concerning known and controlled systems, such as the crystal/case and pusher/case connections.
  • the sensor which detects the pressure is mounted on the movement and is activated by the pusher which is easy to make waterproof. THE Sensors that detect rotation are on the move. As the magnetic detection is contactless, there is no problem with waterproofing.
  • the wheel repulsion function can be ensured by a pusher which does not open onto the inside of the case or the middle.
  • appropriate dimensioning of the notching, the force and the position of the magnets, and the position of the magnetic sensors allows the detection of the translation and rotation of the wheel.
  • Other other contactless solutions, in particular galvanic or optical, are possible, but less economical.
  • the use of a deformable partition, for a watch with a plastic case in particular, allows contactless detection of translation.
  • Another advantage of the invention is, in the preferred but non-limiting variant of magnetic detection, the possibility of using the watch underwater or in a humid environment.
  • the area available for the user's finger to operate the wheel is extended, which allows good detection resolution: in the case of an electronic watch or a connected or intelligent watch, the user does not is not required to make many turns to scroll through the menus (compared to an electronic crown for example). This advantage comes from the fact that the wheel goes all the way around the movement.
  • the notching system provides a good feeling for the user to determine how many steps they are taking.
  • the invention can be used for crowns, glasses, and with wheels of different sizes: glasses surrounding all or part of the movement, or mini wheels encroaching as little as possible on the geometric footprint of the movement.
