Definitions
- the present invention relates to an indicator hand for a timepiece and a timepiece provided with such a needle.
- the hour and minute hands turn above a dial with indications.
- the dial includes areas dedicated to the display of auxiliary information such as the date, the month, the day of the week, the moon phases, the hours and minutes of chronograph, etc.
- the dial can thus include one or more apertures through each of which is visible an indication carried by a disc rotating under the dial.
- the dial can also bear indications with which small hands cooperate located at a height lower than that of the hour and minute hands.
- the present invention aims to solve, at least in part, this problem and proposes for this purpose an indicator needle according to claim 1, particular embodiments being defined in the dependent claims.
- the Figures 1 to 3 on the one hand and 4 to 6 on the other hand show two examples of indicator needle for a timepiece, in particular for a wristwatch, pocket watch or pendulum clock, according to the invention.
- the needle 1a illustrated in Figures 1 to 3 is for example an hour or minute indicator hand or a chronograph hand.
- the needle 1b illustrated in figures 4 to 6 is for example a pointer indicating the number of the week in the year (weekly).
- Each of these needles 1a, 1b comprises a fixing part 10a, 10b pierced with a hole 11a, 11b allowing the mounting of the needle by driving, gluing, brazing or the like on an axis. From the fixing part 10a, 10b extends radially a body 12a, 12b.
- the body 12a, 12b consists of a first section 13a, 13b and a distal end section 14a, 14b, the latter constituting the indicator portion of the needle intended to cooperate with numbers and / or index of a graduation.
- the body 12a of the needle 1a has a tapered shape from one end to the other and its distal end section 14a is therefore the thinnest part of the body 12a.
- the body 12b of the needle 1b has a T shape with a first straight section 13b ending in the distal end section 14b having the shape of an arc of a circle transverse to the first section 13b.
- the needle 1a further comprises a counterweight 15a extending from the fixing part 10a in the opposite direction to the body 12a.
- the first section 13a, 13b is made entirely of a transparent material, preferably glass, especially tempered glass, or sapphire.
- this first section 13a, 13b carries an anti-reflective coating 16a, 16b at least on its upper surface 17a, 17b and / or on its lower surface 18a, 18b, and preferably over its entire surface, the upper surface 17a, 17b being the surface seen by the user when he looks at the dial of the timepiece from above (or from the front).
- the anti-reflective coating 16a, 16b can be of the same type as those used for watch glass. Thanks to its transparent material and to the anti-reflective coating 16a, 16b, the first section 13a, 13b is almost invisible to the user and therefore does not hide the information carried by the dial.
- the needle can therefore move over the information areas of the dial, such as a window 2 ( figure 7 ) or zone 3 dedicated to a chronograph counter ( figure 8 ) and cooperating with a small needle (not shown).
- a window 2 figure 7
- zone 3 dedicated to a chronograph counter
- a small needle not shown.
- the hand according to the invention designated by 4
- points to a graduation 6 associated therewith to display information of a different nature from that of zones 2 and 3.
- the transparency of the needle 4 can also be useful to avoid hiding other (large) needles pivoting in the center of the dial 5.
- At least the surface or surfaces of the first section 13a, 13b which carry the anti-reflective coating 16a, 16b are polished. More preferably, the entire surface of the first section 13a, 13b is polished before the application of the anti-reflective coating 16a, 16b.
- its distal end section 14a, 14b is opaque or less transparent than the first section 13a, 13b, at least when the needle 1a, 1b, 4 and the dial 5 are seen from above (or from the front), so as to be visible to the user.
- the needle 1a, 1b is in one piece, made of glass or sapphire, and carries the anti-reflective coating 16a, 16b over its entire surface, and its distal end section 14a, 14b is further surface treated to be opaque or less transparent than the first section 13a, 13b.
- the surface treatment of the distal end section 14a, 14b may consist in depositing on the latter an opaque layer 19a, 19b, for example a layer of paint or a metallic layer. This opaque layer 19a, 19b can be deposited only on the upper surface and / or on the lower surface, or on the entire surface of the distal end section 14a, 14b.
- This opaque layer 19a, 19b can be deposited in different ways, for example by physical vapor deposition (PVD) or chemical vapor deposition (CVD) in the case of a metallic coating.
- PVD physical vapor deposition
- CVD chemical vapor deposition
- the surface treatment of the distal end section 14a, 14b may consist of a frosting or a laser texturing of all or part of the surface of the section 14a, 14b.
- an intermediate piece for example made of brass, can be brazed or fixed elastically in hole 11a, 11b and then driven out on the axis.
- the transparent material chosen in the present invention is a low density material which gives the needle 1a, 1b a low inertia.
- the needle 1a, 1b in particular when it is made of sapphire, can be obtained by an etching technique.
- the preferred manufacturing method in the present invention in particular when the needle 1a, 1b is made of glass, is 3D printing, more particularly the technique known under the name FEMTOPRINT (registered trademark) which makes it possible to obtain shapes. complex and hollowed out to lighten the part and thus further reduce its inertia.
- the needle 1a illustrated in Figures 1 to 3 has its upper surface which is chamfered, giving the upper surface of the body 12a, in particular the upper surface 17a of the first section 13a, a faceted shape (cf. figure 3 ) which lightens the needle and improves its aesthetics.
- the body 12a is further lightened by a groove 20a formed in its lower surface.
- the first section 13b of the body 12b of the needle 1b illustrated in figures 4 to 6 is a half-cylinder (cf. figure 6 ).
- the upper surface 17b of this first section 13b is thus curved, without any edge. This shape also lightens the needle and improves its aesthetics.
- the needle 1a can be hollowed out in different ways than that illustrated in the figures 2 and 3 .
- the recess could be carried out essentially inside the needle with no outlet, or almost, towards the outside, as the FEMTOPRINT process allows.
- the thickness e of the body 12a, 12b can be variable, as shown in the figure 1 for the body 12a, in order to better distribute the stresses and in particular increase its stiffness where the forces are the highest, namely near the fixing part 10a, 10b.
- the height h of the body 12a, 12b can be variable for a better distribution of the stresses.
- the needle according to the invention may also have a non-rectilinear profile, of curved shape or with recesses, for example to follow a curvature of the dial or to pass over the barrel of another needle or of another three-dimensional member. while keeping the indicator part of the needle close to the dial.
- the body of the needle according to the invention could have several opaque parts serving as indicator parts and several first transparent sections carrying an anti-reflective coating.
