Definitions

  • the invention relates to a clock striking mechanism comprising a control mechanism for at least one hammer, which comprises a first striking zone, which is arranged to strike in a first direction of travel a first resonant component at the level of. a first striking surface, when the at least one hammer moves from a retracted position to a first percussion position.
  • the invention also relates to a clockwork mechanism comprising such a striking mechanism.
  • the invention also relates to a timepiece, in particular a watch, comprising such a clock mechanism, and / or such a striking mechanism.
  • the invention relates to the field of sound-emitting clockwork mechanisms, such as chime, alarm or alarm mechanisms, music boxes, and the like.
  • the striking or alarm clock mechanisms generally include a hammer, which strikes a gong or the like.
  • the rebound of the hammer on the gong can produce extraneous noises, in particular if the hammer strikes a fixed element, such as a turntable, during its return stroke. As a result, the sound of the bell or the alarm clock is neither elegant nor controlled.
  • the document FR326530A in the name of STANGE describes a musical escapement for alarm clock, where this escapement occurs only after the alarm clock rings, and is obtained by means of a cam disc, which is fixed on the mounting axis of the alarm clock and in its last reverse rotation activates a lever, which itself acts on an escape lever controlling the musical mechanism.
  • the document FR349486A in the name of HALLER describes a table or alarm clock ringing comprising an oscillating bell device provided beyond its axis of oscillation with a rod which engages in the sinuous groove of a control wheel whose rotation determines the swing of the bell.
  • the document FR380459A in the name of HAMBURG AMERIKANISCHE UHRENFABRIK describes the application to an alarm clock of one or more exciters acoustic horns which consist of acoustic horns with membranes and are struck by means of one or more hammers.
  • One of the types of this new timbre is with a single acoustic exciter, so that the acoustic horn is turned forward and the plane of oscillation of the hammer is perpendicular to the membrane and then the hammer start-up has place from the axis of the anchor of the alarm clock, by means of a hook which enters a loop fixed on the shaft of the hammer.
  • Another type of this timbre is with several acoustic exciters, so that the membranes of two pairs of exciters come to be placed vis-à-vis the anterior surfaces of a hammer to obtain a rapid sequence of sounds.
  • the invention proposes to suppress the parasitic noises linked to a rebound of the hammer, by replacing the single percussion by a double percussion, produced on a single gong.
  • the invention relates to a striking mechanism according to claim 1.
  • the invention also relates to a clockwork mechanism comprising such a striking mechanism, according to claim 10.
  • the invention also relates to a timepiece, in particular a watch, comprising such a clock mechanism, and / or such a striking mechanism.
  • a first alternative consists in forming a hammer which strikes the gong in both directions of movement.
  • a hammer in question can for example span the gong.
  • the hammer strikes the gong as in a conventional construction, by a first striking zone of this hammer.
  • the hammer In a second direction contrary to the first direction, the hammer also strikes the same stamp, but through a second striking zone of this hammer, different from the first striking zone and which is opposite to it.
  • a second alternative consists in placing another element of the main gong, for example a second branch, so that a percussion is effected in both directions of rotation of the hammer.
  • the invention relates to a clockwork striking mechanism 100 comprising a control mechanism for at least one hammer 1.
  • tapping mechanism is meant, in the broad sense, any watch mechanism allowing sound emission: striking mechanism, alarm clock, alarm, music box, or the like.
  • This at least one hammer 1 comprises a first striking zone 2, which is arranged to strike in a first direction of travel a first resonant component 3 at the level of a first striking surface 30 thereof, when the at least one hammer 1 moves from a retracted position to a first percussion position.
  • This at least one hammer 1 comprises, opposite to the first striking zone 2, a second striking zone 5 which is arranged to strike, in a second direction of travel opposite to the first direction of travel, during a retreat of at least a hammer 1 from the first percussion position to the retracted position, a second striking surface 40 which comprises the first resonant component 3.
  • first resonant component 3 is illustrated without limitation in the figures in the usual form of a stamp. It can also consist of a gong, a bell, a keyboard, or the like.
  • this first resonant component 3 is a bell or a gong or a bell or a keyboard, fixed in cantilever to a fixed structure 8, which the striking mechanism 100 comprises, at the level of a first recess. , respectively of a second embedding.
  • control mechanism comprises a control wheel 10, which is arranged to directly or indirectly control the movement of at least one hammer 1.
  • the first resonant component 3 comprises the second striking surface 40.
  • This second striking surface 40 is in the immediate vicinity of the first striking surface 30, from which it is separated by the thickness of the first resonant component 3, as seen on the figures 1 to 3 .
  • the distance between the first embedding and the second striking surface 40 is different from the distance between this same first embedding and the first striking surface 30.
  • the hammer 1 comprises a first fork 6, which is arranged to span the first resonant component 3, and which comprises, on either side of the first resonant component 3, the first striking zone 2 and the second striking zone 5 .
  • the hammer 1 comprises a substantially annular element arranged to surround the first resonant component 3 and which comprises, on either side of the first resonant component 3, the first striking zone 2 and the second striking zone 5.
  • the first resonant component 3 comprises a second fork 60, which is arranged to span a second end 7 of the hammer 1 which comprises the second striking zone 5 and which second fork 60 comprises, on either side of the second end 7, the first striking surface 30 and the second striking surface 40. More particularly, and as visible on the figure 3 , the hammer 1 forms a U, each branch of which has a striking zone.
  • control mobile 10 is arranged to control the movement of at least one anchor 11, which is itself arranged to control a movement of at least one hammer 1 from its retracted position to its percussion position.
  • the control mobile 10 comprises a wheel 14, and this at least one anchor 11 comprises a plurality of nozzles 12, each arranged to cooperate with one of the teeth 13 that the wheel 14 comprises. More particularly, this at least an anchor 11 comprises two nozzles 12 alternately engaged with the wheel 14.
  • At least one anchor 11 is integral at least in pivoting with at least one hammer 1, in order to pivot relative to a fixed structure 8, such as a plate, bridge, or the like. More particularly still, the at least one anchor 11 is integral with at least one hammer 1.
  • the invention also relates to a timepiece mechanism 2000 comprising such a striking mechanism 100. More particularly, this mechanism 2000 comprises an actuator 200, which is able to be operated by a user for drive the control mobile 10, and / or comprises a clockwork movement 1000 capable of driving the control mobile 10.
  • the invention also relates to a timepiece 3000 comprising such a timepiece mechanism 2000, and / or such a striking mechanism 100. More particularly, this timepiece 3000 is a watch.
  • the invention makes it possible to avoid the loss of energy during the rebound, the energy is restored after the change of direction of rotation of the hammer, increasing the sound level of the ringing.
  • the different construction variants protect the hammer and the plate from any impact between them.
