Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for selecting watch functions.
  • the invention also relates to a timepiece mechanism comprising such a selection device.
  • the invention also relates to a watch movement comprising such a selection device or such a mechanism.
  • the invention also relates to a timepiece comprising such a movement or such a selection device or such a mechanism.
  • the invention finally relates to a method of operating such a timepiece or such a movement or such a selection device or such a mechanism.
  • a mechanism provided with a three-position control rod is generally provided to allow adjustment of a timepiece comprising an additional function, such as for example a calendar or a second time zone, which must be adjusted.
  • Position "2" or intermediate position of the stem is not always easy to reach by the user of a timepiece, in particular of a watch, and there is a risk that this stem will pass directly from the first (position “1") to the last position (position “3") without it being able to be arranged in a stable manner at the level of the intermediate position (position "2") due in particular to the axial forces required for its actuation .
  • position "2" the last position
  • it is then understood that it would be tricky to add yet another intermediate rod position dedicated to adjusting another additional function.
  • the stroke of the latter would have to be increased, which would pose difficulties in terms of size, both in terms of the movement and in terms of the crown of the watch.
  • one solution would be to reduce the travel between the axial positions of the rod, but this would make the selection of functions even more difficult.
  • watches equipped, for example, with a time zone, a moon phase or an annual, semi-perpetual or perpetual calendar generally have at least one additional interface means in addition of the control rod to be able to select and adjust several additional functions.
  • This additional interface means can for example be in the form of a pusher, or even a selection bezel.
  • the document EP2453322 describes a chronograph movement equipped with a mechanism comprising a stem having three stable axial positions.
  • the particularity of this mechanism lies in the fact that it offers the possibility of adjusting an additional function derived from the time by actuating one of the chronograph pushers when the control rod is not in a first position. More particularly, when the stem of the mechanism is in the first position, the pusher makes it possible to interact with the chronograph, whereas when the stem is in another position, the pusher makes it possible to set an additional function derived from the time.
  • the document EP1939699 discloses a mechanism having a particular arrangement of a crown provided for the selection and adjustment of various functions. Unlike a mechanism provided with a conventional interface implementing a control rod, a rotation of this crown allows the selection of the function to be adjusted, and a pressure on it allows the adjustment of the function previously selected. The adjustment is therefore made incrementally, as it is possible to do with a simple corrector.
  • the document CH702803 describes a mechanism comprising a stem having three stable axial positions and further comprising a preferably coaxial crown and pusher. According to one of the axial positions of the rod, the rotation of the crown allows the selection of an adjustment function, and the actuation of the pusher allows an incremental adjustment of the previously selected function.
  • the document CH702548 describes a mechanism for selecting three configurations of a selection device; winding the movement according to a first configuration, setting a time zone according to a second configuration, and setting the time according to a third configuration.
  • the configuration of this mechanism is selected by pressing on a crown, as on a pusher. Rotating the crown enables winding or adjustment of the previously selected function.
  • a pusher provided to allow the adjustment of an additional function of the movement
  • its arrangement is not easy both in terms of size and in terms of the tightness of the watch.
  • the implementation of a pusher implies that the adjustment is done incrementally, which is not suitable for certain functions such as, for example, the manual winding of a movement or setting the time. .
  • the object of the invention is to provide a device for selecting watchmaking functions making it possible to improve the devices for selecting watchmaking functions known from the prior art.
  • the invention proposes a device for selecting watch functions that is particularly reliable and easy to use, which makes it possible to obtain at least four configurations for selecting watch functions.
  • an object can include any combination of characteristics from the first, second and third aspects.
  • a first embodiment of a timepiece 1000 is described below with reference to the figures 1 to 14 .
  • the timepiece 1000 is for example a watch, in particular a wristwatch.
  • the timepiece 1000 comprises a timepiece movement 900 intended to be mounted in a case or a timepiece box in order to protect it from the external environment.
  • the watch movement 900 can be an electronic movement or a mechanical movement, in particular an automatic movement.
  • the 900 watch movement includes a 800 watch mechanism.
  • this single interface element 1 is in the form of a control rod 1.

  • each axial position of the rod makes it possible to conform a function selection device, in particular a pull rod, according to a given configuration.
  • the function selection device 200 that is the subject of this document has the specificity of comprising a number of configurations greater than the number of axial positions of the control rod. This is for example made possible by the fact that such a selection device 200 has the specificity of comprising a pull-bar device 150 provided with two pull-bars or rockers, and that it is capable of being indexed in position either by a first device 4 for indexing, or by a second device 5 for indexing.
  • the different configurations of the selection device are determined by the synergy of the two drawbars or rockers, and the axial positions of the rod 1 are determined by one or the other of the two indexing devices.
  • the interface element 1 is, in certain configurations of the selection device, indexed in position by the first indexing device and, in other configurations of the selection device, indexed in position by the second indexing device.
  • a stable position of the interface element 1 is determined by the first position indexing device and, in other configurations of the selection device, another stable position of interface element 1 is determined by the second position indexing device.

  • the latter preferably comprises a second spring 51 provided with a second functional surface 52 (forming for example a beak), as well as the control wheel set 7 provided with a third functional surface 72 (forming for example star teeth, as illustrated on the figure 4 and 5 ). More particularly, the cooperation of the second functional surface 52 with the third functional surface 72 allows to define three stable angular positions of the second pull tab 3. Furthermore, in a given configuration of the selection device 200, the second pull tab 3 also contributes to the stable axial positioning of the interface element 1.
  • the control wheel set 7 is advantageously pivoted on the frame 100, in particular pivoted perpendicular to the plane P of the frame 100.
