Definitions

  • the invention relates to a moon phase display mechanism arranged to cooperate with a clockwork movement, and comprising an input pinion arranged to perform three turns, or respectively two turns, in 24 hours.
  • the invention also relates to a clockwork display mechanism comprising such a moon phase display mechanism.
  • the invention also relates to a timepiece movement comprising such a moon phase display mechanism.
  • the invention also relates to a watch comprising such a movement.
  • the invention relates to the field of display mechanisms for watches, in particular for mechanical watches with complications.
  • the moon phase display is a popular function in watchmaking, which complicates the manufacture of the movement, and which quickly occupies a large volume inside the case. Correcting such a display is not always easy.
  • the invention proposes to produce a moon phase display mechanism for a watch, which is simple and economical, with very few components and without any complexity of production.
  • the invention relates to a moon phase display mechanism according to claim 1.
  • the invention also relates to a clockwork display mechanism comprising such a moon phase display mechanism.
  • the invention also relates to a timepiece movement comprising such a moon phase display mechanism.
  • the invention also relates to a watch comprising such a movement.
  • a simple and economical moon phase display mechanism for a watch is provided.
  • the invention relates to a moon phase display mechanism 10, which is arranged to cooperate with a timepiece movement 200, and comprises an input pinion.
  • This upper wheel makes, for each of the variants, one revolution per day.
  • the upper wheel comprises, on the user's side, a sky disc 1400, with a representation of the sky and of an eccentric sun 141, and which comprises an eccentric aperture 16, substantially opposite the sun 141, and by which is visible part of the lower wheel 15 illustrating the instantaneous appearance of the moon.
  • the representation of the sky at the level of the sky disc 1400, comprises a first clear or illuminated part 142 corresponding to the day, which bears the representation of the sun 141, and has a second dark or degraded part corresponding to the night, which carries the window 16 through which the moon phase is visible.
  • the representation of the sky at the level of the sky disc 1400, comprises a gradient image 144, the gradient not being illustrated in the figure, from a clear part corresponding to the day at the level of the representation of the sun 141, up to to a dark part corresponding to the night, at the level of the counter 16.
  • the drive pinion designated by 13 or 130 depending on the variant, drives a lower wheel 15 to 59 teeth.
  • This lower wheel 15 to 59 teeth carries a moon disc, called 150 in the first variant as visible on the figure. figure 3 Where 7 , or 1500 in the second variant as seen on the figure 10 .
  • the moon disc can be attached to the lower wheel, or else constitute with it a single component, and can be constituted by enamelling, painting, screen printing, decal, or the like.
  • the sky background zone 151 is configured so that the duration of the black moon and of the full moon are approximately respected.
  • this sky background zone 151 is delimited by a border 153 in the form of a conchoid of a circle or in a cardioid shape and such that complete representations of the new moon and of the full moon are each visible through the window 16.
  • the sky disc 1400 rotates outward. Otherwise, its axis could be obscured by the horizon line.
  • the upper wheel, 14 or 140 depending on the variant is coaxial with the lower wheel 15.
  • the first variant uses a particular gear ratio, 57-19-59, which makes it possible to produce an extremely simple moon phase, and which hardly consumes any energy, because the mechanism does not have a jumper, and is in direct contact with the hour wheel in a continuous movement.
  • This input pinion 11 carries the drive pinion 13 of 19 teeth, which drives the two coaxial wheels of respectively 57 and 59 teeth: upper wheel 14 to 57 teeth, and lower wheel 15 to 59 teeth.
  • the mechanism 10 comprises a fixed part constituted by a plate 30 or a bridge 31, to which is fixed a bar 19 in superposition of the sky disc 1400 and symbolizing the horizon line on either side of which the representation is movable. of the sun 141 during the rotation of the upper wheel 14 or 140, as visible on the figures 1 and 2 .
  • the sky disc 1400 with the moon and the sun rotates to the rhythm of day and night.
  • the lower wheel 15 is integral, for example through a needle barrel, a display or a needle 17 for the display of the age of the moon on a graduation 18 that comprises the disc of sky 1400.
  • the drive pinion 13 to 19 teeth is single, and meshes simultaneously with the upper wheel 14 to 57 teeth, and with the lower wheel 15 to 59 teeth.
  • the input pinion 11 is arranged to perform three turns in 24 hours
  • the drive pinion 13 has 19 teeth
  • the upper wheel 14 has 57 teeth
  • the two-color representation has an illuminated area 152 and a sky background area 151, delimited by a border 153 in a conchoid of a circle or a cardioid shape and such as full representations of the new moon and full moon are each visible through window 16.
  • the second variant exploits a further 58-29-59 gear ratio.
  • the input pinion 110 meshes with the 12 hour wheel of the clockwork movement and rotates twice in 24 hours.
  • This input pinion 110 carries the drive pinion 130 to 29 teeth, which drives the upper wheel 140 to 58 teeth, as seen in the figure. figure 9 , and the lower wheel 15 to 59 teeth.
  • the input pinion 11 is arranged to perform two turns in 24 hours, the drive pinion 130 has 29 teeth, the two-color representation of the speed disc.
  • moon 1500 has an illuminated area 152 and two sky background areas 151, in that the upper wheel 14 has 58 teeth.
  • the figure 11 illustrates a simple means of producing a moon phase corrector: the correction can be carried out by inserting a friction 20 on the connecting mobile between the input pinion 11 linked to the hours wheel 12, on which is driven a retaining ring 21, and the drive pinion 13 controlling the lunations. It is in particular possible to envisage correcting the moon from the position T2 of the winding stem of a watch 300, by means of a gear train or by a corrective lever acting on the drive pinion 13. The drive pinion 13 is thus driven by the input pinion 11 via a friction means 20, to allow correction from a control rod via a gear train, or from a corrective lever acting on the pinion d 'training 13.
  • the invention also relates to a clockwork display mechanism 100 comprising such a moon phase display mechanism 10.
  • the invention also relates to a timepiece movement 200 comprising such a moon phase display mechanism 10, and comprising an hour wheel 12 arranged either to drive the input pinion 11 and drive the drive pinion 13. or 130, either to constitute the input pinion 11 and at the same time carry and drive the drive pinion, in which case the drive pinion 13 drives the upper wheel 14 indirectly through a reverser and the pinion of drive 13 drives the lower wheel 15 indirectly through a decoupling.
  • this movement 200 comprises a winding and correction rod, not shown in the figures, and the rod is arranged to control the correction of the moon phase by means of a train of references.
  • the invention also relates to a watch 300 comprising such a movement 200.
