Description détaillée des modes de réalisation préférésDetailed description of preferred embodiments

L'invention concerne un mobile 1 d'horlogerie à roue unidirectionnelle 2, agencée pour tourner dans un seul sens en coopération avec un rochet 3 mobile dans une chambre de rochet 30 figurée en trait mixte sur les figures. Ce mobile 1 comporte au moins un cliquet 4, qui est agencé pour être fixé solidaire en rotation de la roue unidirectionnelle 2.The invention relates to a clockwork mobile 1 with a unidirectional wheel 2, arranged to turn in one direction in cooperation with a ratchet 3 mobile in a ratchet chamber 30 shown in phantom in the figures. This mobile 1 comprises at least one pawl 4, which is designed to be fixed in rotation with the unidirectional wheel 2.

Selon l'invention, le cliquet 4 constitue un composant monobloc comportant au moins un bras-ressort 6, à l'extrémité 9 formant une tête, et duquel, d'un premier côté, au moins un bec 5 est agencé pour coopérer directement avec la denture d'un rochet 3 dans une position de service dans laquelle le bras-ressort 6 est libre. D'un deuxième côté du bras-ressort 6 à son extrémité 9, au moins un premier crochet 7 est agencé pour coopérer avec un deuxième crochet 8 de profil complémentaire et que comporte le cliquet 4 monobloc, dans une position de repos dans laquelle le bras-ressort 6 est en position étendue. L'élasticité du bras-ressort 6 est ajustée pour permettre l'accrochage ou le décrochage du premier crochet 7 par rapport au deuxième crochet 8, sous l'action d'un opérateur ou d'un manipulateur, soit par une élongation maximale du bras-ressort 6 selon une longueur supérieure à celle de la position étendue, soit par un basculement de l'extrémité 9, soit à la fois par élongation maximale du bras-ressort 6 et basculement de l'extrémité 9.According to the invention, the pawl 4 constitutes a one-piece component comprising at least one spring arm 6, at the end 9 forming a head, and of which, on a first side, at least one spout 5 is arranged to cooperate directly with the teeth of a ratchet 3 in a service position in which the spring arm 6 is free. On a second side of the spring arm 6 at its end 9, at least one first hook 7 is arranged to cooperate with a second hook 8 of complementary profile and that comprises the pawl 4 piece, in a rest position in which the arm spring 6 is in the extended position. The elasticity of the spring arm 6 is adjusted to allow the hooking or unhooking of the first hook 7 relative to the second hook 8, under the action of an operator or a manipulator, either by a maximum elongation of the spring arm 6 along a length greater than that of the extended position, or by a tilting of the end 9, or both by maximum elongation of the spring arm 6 and tilting of the end 9.

Plus particulièrement, ce cliquet 4 comporte, au droit de chaque bec 5, lequel est mobile de façon sensiblement radiale par rapport à un axe de cliquet A, un dégagement 50 qui est agencé pour autoriser le débrayage radial complet du bec 5 d'avec un rochet 3.More particularly, this pawl 4 comprises, in line with each spout 5, which is movable in a substantially radial manner relative to a pawl axis A, a clearance 50 which is arranged to allow the complete radial disengagement of the spout 5 with a ratchet 3.

Plus particulièrement, ce cliquet 4 comporte une partie sensiblement annulaire 40 qui comporte, au niveau de chaque extrémité 9, un premier dégagement 70 agencé pour loger un premier bras 71 d'un premier crochet 7. Et chaque bras-ressort 6 comporte à son extrémité 9 un deuxième dégagement 80 agencé pour loger un deuxième bras 81 d'un deuxième crochet 8.More particularly, this pawl 4 comprises a substantially annular part 40 which comprises, at each end 9, a first clearance 70 arranged to accommodate a first arm 71 of a first hook 7. And each spring arm 6 has at its end 9 a second clearance 80 arranged to accommodate a second arm 81 of a second hook 8.

De façon avantageuse, le dégagement 50 est situé dans la partie sensiblement annulaire 40 du cliquet 4, et est agencé pour loger le bras-ressort 6 avec la tête comportant le bec 5 et le premier crochet 7, et ce dégagement comporte une surface d'appui 49, sensiblement radiale sur la variante des figures, contre laquelle vient en appui une face d'extrémité distale 69 de cette tête. Cette disposition permet de limiter la déformation de la lame-ressort dans les mouvements d'entraînement du rochet.Advantageously, the clearance 50 is located in the substantially annular part 40 of the pawl 4, and is arranged to accommodate the spring arm 6 with the head comprising the spout 5 and the first hook 7, and this clearance comprises a surface of support 49, substantially radial on the variant of the figures, against which abuts a distal end face 69 of this head. This arrangement limits the deformation of the leaf spring in the ratchet drive movements.

Plus particulièrement encore, ce rochet 3 comporte une symétrie d'ordre N par rapport à un axe de cliquet A, le nombre N étant le nombre des lames-ressort 6 que comporte le cliquet 4.More particularly still, this ratchet 3 has symmetry of order N with respect to a ratchet axis A, the number N being the number of leaf springs 6 that the ratchet 4 comprises.

De façon particulière, ce cliquet 4 est monobloc avec la roue unidirectionnelle 2, et peut notamment être réalisé dans un matériau micro-usinable, tel que silicium ou similaire, par un procédé « LIGA » ou « MEMS » ou similaire.In particular, this pawl 4 is in one piece with the unidirectional wheel 2, and can in particular be produced in a micro-machinable material, such as silicon or the like, by a “LIGA” or “MEMS” or similar process.

Dans une réalisation avantageuse, le cliquet 4 comporte des moyens de préhension 90, qui sont agencés pour leur coopération simultanée avec un outil 200 présentant une symétrie d'ordre N par rapport à un axe d'outil agencé pour être centré sur l'axe de cliquet A, et, pour écarter simultanément de l'axe de cliquet A les becs 5 au-delà de l'emprise du rochet 3 et de la chambre de rochet 30, pour procéder notamment à un réglage ou à une opération de maintenance. La figure 7 montre un tel outil 200 comportant des bossages 201 agencés pour repousser la lame-ressort 6, et prendre appui sur ces moyens de préhension 90, ici constitués par un coin que forme l'extrémité de la lame-ressort 6 sous le bec 5.In an advantageous embodiment, the pawl 4 comprises gripping means 90, which are arranged for their simultaneous cooperation with a tool 200 having a symmetry of order N with respect to a tool axis arranged to be centered on the axis of ratchet A, and, to simultaneously separate from the ratchet axis A the nozzles 5 beyond the grip of the ratchet 3 and the ratchet chamber 30, in order to carry out in particular an adjustment or a maintenance operation. The figure 7 shows such a tool 200 comprising bosses 201 arranged to push back the leaf spring 6, and bear on these gripping means 90, here constituted by a wedge formed by the end of the leaf spring 6 under the spout 5.

L'invention concerne encore un mécanisme 100 de remontage d'au moins une paire de barillets 110 d'horlogerie, comportant, pour le remontage de chaque barillet 110, un tel mobile 1, dont le cliquet 4 est agencé pour coopérer avec un rochet 3 pour l'entraînement d'un arbre que comporte le barillet 110. Les mobiles 1 sont symétriques l'un par rapport à l'autre et coplanaires. Le mécanisme 100 comportant des moyens d'entraînement comportant une tige 101, et un rouage comportant de façon non limitative un jeu de roues 102, 103, 104, 105, et un inverseur 106, agencés ensemble pour entraîner chaque roue unidirectionnelle 2 dans un sens différent, de façon à entraîner toujours un rochet 3, quel que soit le sens de manœuvre des moyens d'entraînement. Ainsi la tige 101 permet de remonter indifféremment l'un ou l'autre barillet 110, quel que soit le sens de rotation de la tige 101, sans nécessiter de débrayage : dans un sens le cliquet 4 remonte le barillet, et dans l'autre sens le même cliquet 4 débraye le même barillet 110.The invention also relates to a mechanism 100 for winding at least one pair of timepiece barrels 110, comprising, for the reassembly of each barrel 110, such a mobile 1, the pawl 4 of which is arranged to cooperate with a ratchet 3 for driving a shaft that comprises the barrel 110. The mobiles 1 are symmetrical with respect to each other and coplanar. The mechanism 100 comprising drive means comprising a rod 101, and a train comprising in a nonlimiting manner a set of wheels 102, 103, 104, 105, and an inverter 106, arranged together to drive each unidirectional wheel 2 in one direction different, so as to always drive a ratchet 3, whatever the direction of operation of the drive means. Thus the rod 101 makes it possible to raise either one or the other barrel 110, whatever the direction of rotation of the rod 101, without requiring disengaging: in one direction the pawl 4 goes up the barrel, and in the other sense the same pawl 4 disengages the same barrel 110.

Plus particulièrement ce mécanisme 100 comporte de tels mobiles 1, et un tel outil amovible 200, présentant une symétrie d'ordre N par rapport à un axe d'outil agencé pour être centré sur l'axe de cliquet A et, pour écarter simultanément du axe de cliquet A les becs 5 au-delà de l'emprise du rochet 3 et de la chambre de rochet 30 de chaque mobile 1 pour procéder à un réglage ou à une opération de maintenance.More particularly, this mechanism 100 comprises such mobiles 1, and such a removable tool 200, having a symmetry of order N with respect to a tool axis arranged to be centered on the pawl axis A and, to simultaneously separate it from the ratchet axis A the spouts 5 beyond the grip of the ratchet 3 and the ratchet chamber 30 of each mobile 1 to make an adjustment or a maintenance operation.

L'invention concerne encore une montre 1000 comportant au moins un tel mécanisme 100, ou/et au moins un tel mobile 1.The invention also relates to a watch 1000 comprising at least one such mechanism 100, and / or at least one such mobile 1.
