Definitions

  • the invention relates to a barrel with a twisted shaft for a mechanical clockwork movement.
  • the invention also relates to a timepiece movement comprising at least one such barrel with a twisted shaft.
  • the invention also relates to a timepiece comprising such a timepiece movement.
  • the invention relates to the field of watchmaking, and more particularly to the field of energy storage barrels, for supplying a movement, a chime, or even another functionality of a part of a watch. watchmaking.
  • a ratchet is mounted axially on one end of a barrel shaft, said end protruding from the barrel drum.
  • the outgoing end has a square section, cooperating complementarily by fitting within a housing of the same section formed in the center of said ratchet, with a view to its driving.
  • the opposite end of the barrel shaft is mounted axially free to rotate with respect to a barrel drum.
  • the latter internally receives a barrel spring, in the form of a blade elastically shaped, one end of which locks against a clearance provided in the inner wall of said drum, while the opposite end of said spring is fixed to the shaft, by means of a hook, in particular provided on a bung integral with said shaft.
  • a barrel spring in the form of a blade elastically shaped, one end of which locks against a clearance provided in the inner wall of said drum, while the opposite end of said spring is fixed to the shaft, by means of a hook, in particular provided on a bung integral with said shaft.
  • the ratchet is locked on the shaft by screwing resting on a shoulder provided projecting on said shaft, beyond the square section of the outgoing end. Further on, an axial screw is screwed into a complementarily tapped hole within said outgoing end.
  • This type of mounting by screwing firstly imposes a dimensioning constraint on the diameter of the shaft, the outgoing end of which is intended to receive the screw.
  • This dimensioning impacts the space available in the drum for the spring and limits the number of windings of said spring, namely the power reserve of the timepiece.
  • the invention aims to keep a ratchet locked on a shaft of a barrel, dispensing with fixing by screwing, while avoiding the risk of the ratchet springing out by the spring.
  • the barrel is remarkable in that said exiting end of the shaft has a shape twisted around its axis.
  • the invention envisages an outgoing end of said shaft which is provided twisted or twisted, imposing a rotation in a direction of the ratchet when it is introduced onto said shaft from the distal point of the outgoing end to the locking position against the ratchet. bung of said shaft, and in the opposite direction of rotation during its extraction.
  • the torque supplied by the compression of the barrel spring is sufficient to prevent the ratchet from rotating relative to said shaft in said opposite direction of extraction, and consequently also prevents it from going up along of the square section of the twisted shaft.
  • the shaft can be narrower.
  • the invention makes it possible to reduce the diameter of the bung, thus making it possible to accommodate a longer spring in the barrel drum, increasing the number of turns around the bung and thus the power reserve of the barrel.
  • the shaft according to the invention also saves time, because it is no longer necessary to unscrew a screw to remove the ratchet.
  • the ratchet can be removed directly without any prior step, except that concerning the ratchet.
  • said exiting end has a polygonal section, the opening of the ratchet having a corresponding shape.
  • said outgoing end has a square section.
  • the edges of said protruding end are chamfered.
  • said protruding end comprises a distal face angularly offset with respect to its base on the barrel.
  • the offset is at least 30 degrees.
  • said barrel comprises a plug surrounding said shaft, the plug being arranged in the housing.
  • the spring is held in the housing, on the one hand at an internal peripheral face of the barrel, and on the other hand at the bung of the shaft.
  • the shaft passes through the housing and is mounted in free rotation with respect to said barrel drum.
  • said barrel comprises a pawl cooperating directly or indirectly with teeth arranged on the outer peripheral face of the drum, so as to prevent it from rotating in the direction opposite to the first direction.
  • the invention also relates to a timepiece movement comprising such a barrel.
  • the invention also relates to a timepiece comprising such a timepiece movement.
  • the present invention relates to a barrel 1 with a twisted shaft 4, as shown in figures 1 and 2 .
  • the barrel 1 comprises a cylinder drum 2 of cylindrical shape.
  • the drum 2 comprises an upper face 5 and a lower face 8 in the form of discs, as well as a rounded peripheral face 6.
  • the drum 2 is provided with a housing delimited by the upper 5, lower 8 and peripheral 6 faces.
  • the peripheral face 6 of the drum 2 is provided with gear teeth 7 at the junction of the upper face 5. These teeth 7 make it possible to transmit the torque of the spring to the rest of the movement, in particular to actuate the movement of the needles.
  • the barrel 1 comprises a shaft 4 passing through the housing.
  • the shaft 4 extends around a main longitudinal axis around which it can rotate.
  • the shaft 4 is provided with an outgoing end 9 of said drum 2.
  • the barrel 1 comprises a spring, not shown in the figures, the spring being arranged in the housing of the barrel drum 2.
  • the spring is spiral shaped.
  • the spring is held in the housing, on the one hand to the internal peripheral face 6 of the barrel, and on the other hand to the shaft 4.
  • the spring is put into compression by rotation of said shaft 4 in a first direction of rotation 12. .
  • the barrel 1 is provided with a ratchet 3 arranged on the drum 2.
  • the ratchet 3 rests on the upper face 5 of the drum 2 of the barrel.
  • Most of the protruding end 9 protrudes beyond the ratchet 3.
  • the ratchet 3 is a flat disc provided with peripheral gear teeth 13.
  • the ratchet 3 is configured to allow the rotation of the shaft 4 in the first direction of rotation 12.
  • the ratchet 3 comprises an opening 14 cooperating by interlocking with the outgoing end 9 of the shaft 4, the outgoing end 9 passing through. the ratchet 3. In one movement, the ratchet 3 is for example blocked in the other direction by a pawl, not shown in the figures.
  • the pawl does not prevent the ratchet from rotating in the first direction 12.
  • the shaft 4 rotates in the first direction 12 and compresses the spiral spring inside the housing of the drum 3. But the ratchet 3 is blocked in the other direction so that the spring remains compressed.
  • the force exerted by the spring causes the barrel 2 to turn to actuate the mechanism of the clockwork movement, and not the shaft 4.
  • said protruding end 9 of shaft 4 has a shape twisted around its axis.
  • the outgoing end 9 is twisted in the opposite direction to said first direction 12 relative to the drum 2.
  • Said outgoing end 9 is of polygonal section, the opening 14 of the ratchet 3 having a corresponding shape.
  • Said outgoing end 9 is of square section in the figures.
  • the ridges of said outgoing end 9 are chamfered.
  • Said protruding end 9 comprises a distal face 16 angularly offset with respect to its base at the height of the barrel 1. The offset is preferably at least 30 degrees, or even 45 degrees.
  • the ratchet 3 is moved up along the outgoing end 9 by rotating it by an angle corresponding to that of the twist of the shaft 4. To this, the ratchet 3 rotates in the direction of the spin of the outgoing end 9.
  • the position of the opening 14 always corresponds to the shape of the section of the outgoing end 9, the ratchet 3 being able to slide along the outgoing end 9.
  • the figure 3 shows the shaft 4 provided with the outgoing end 9 and the upper face 16.
  • the shaft 4 further comprises a plug 11 surrounding said shaft, the plug 11 being arranged in the housing.
  • the spring is held at the plug 11 of shaft 4.
  • the spring applies a force to the shaft 4 through the plug 11, the shaft 4 transmitting the force to the ratchet 3, which is blocked by the pawl.
  • the ratchet 3 does not risk slipping along the exiting end, since the force is applied in the opposite direction 12 to the direction of the twist.
  • the present invention also relates to a watch movement 10 comprising a barrel as described above.
  • the figure 4 shows a part 10 of a self-winding movement comprising the barrel 1 according to the invention.
  • This part 10 comprises a plate 17 of the movement, an oscillating weight 18, a barrel bridge 19, a bridge 21 of the automatic winding system, gears 22 of the needle display system of the timepiece.
  • the plate 17 and the two bridges 19, 21 are substantially parallel. From bottom to top, we find the plate 17, the barrel bridge 19, the bridge 21 of the automatic winding system and the oscillating weight 18.
  • the gears 22 are arranged next to the barrel bridge 19, under the bridge 21 of the system. automatic winding.
  • the barrel 1 is mounted between the plate 17 and the barrel bridge 19. To this end, the outgoing end 9 of the shaft 4 passes through the barrel bridge 19 and the ratchet 3, the ratchet 3 being arranged on the barrel bridge 19, below the bridge of the automatic winding system 21.
  • the other free end 23 of the shaft is assembled to the plate 17 while being free to rotate about its axis relative to the latter.
