automatique" L'invention concerne un dispositif de remontage automatique de montres à remontage automatique à transmission. automatique notamment de The invention relates to a device for automatic winding of self-winding watches with automatic transmission, in particular
montres placées dans un coffre-fort. watches placed in a safe.
Jusqu'à présent, dans la plupart des cas de montres à remontage automatique, il. n'était pas possible d'utiliser un mécanisme d'horlogerie commandé par quartz. Ces montres comportent toujours une transmission automatique et leur remontage est assuré automatiquement par les mouvements du bras de l'utilisateur. Ces mouvements entraînent un excentrique de la montre; cet excentrique tourne et sa So far, in most cases of self-winding watches, there. it was not possible to use a quartz controlled clockwork mechanism. These watches always include an automatic transmission and their reassembly is ensured automatically by the movements of the arm of the user. These movements lead to an eccentric watch; this eccentric is spinning and its
rotation assure le remontage.rotation ensures reassembly.
Or, on ne porte pas quotidiennement de telles montres à balourd ou à remontage automatique; en général, la plupart du temps, elles sont conservées dans un coffre-fort ou dans une boîte. Ainsi très rapidement, le mécanisme s'arrête puisque la transmission automatique ne provoque aucun remontage de la montre du fait de son immobilité. Lorsque l'utilisateur porte de nouveau cette montre, il faut However, such unbalanced or self-winding watches are not worn daily; in general, most of the time, they are kept in a safe or in a box. Thus very quickly, the mechanism stops because the automatic transmission causes no reassembly of the watch because of its immobility. When the user wears this watch again, it is necessary
tout d'abord la remonter, puis la régler. first, wind it up and then adjust it.
La présente invention a pour but de développer un dispositif du type cidessus qui permet de remédier à ces inconvénients et d'assurer un The object of the present invention is to develop a device of the above type which makes it possible to remedy these drawbacks and to ensure
remontage continu de la montre.continuous winding of the watch.
A cet effet, l'invention concerne un dispositif du type ci-dessus, caractérisé en ce que la montre est reçue sur un axe de rotation pour que la montre tourne dans un plan perpendiculaire à l'axe de rotation. En général on dispose dans ce cas d'une position horizontale de l'axe de rotation, si bien que la montre et son boîtier tournent dans un plan vertical..Au cours de cette rotation, l'excentrique conserve une position déterminée alors que le boîtier de la montre tourne autour de l'excentrique. Cela To this end, the invention relates to a device of the above type, characterized in that the watch is received on an axis of rotation so that the watch rotates in a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation. In general, in this case a horizontal position of the axis of rotation is provided, so that the watch and its housing rotate in a vertical plane. During this rotation, the eccentric retains a determined position while the watch case revolves around the eccentric. it
provoque le remontage de la montre.causes the watch to be reassembled.
Pour tenir compte des différents bracelets de montre, il faut que l'axe de rotation comporte une bande sur laquelle on peut fixer la montre. De manière préférentielle, on a même plusieurs bandes prévues sur l'axe de rotation et les différentes bandes peuvent être couplées par des rayons ou éléments de liaison To account for the different wristwatches, it is necessary that the axis of rotation comprises a band on which the watch can be fixed. Preferably, there are even several bands provided on the axis of rotation and the different bands may be coupled by radii or connecting elements
analogues, correspondants, sur l'axe de rotation. analogous, corresponding, on the axis of rotation.
Selon l'invention, l'axe de rotation lui- According to the invention, the axis of rotation itself
même traverse un palier du boîtier et pénètre dans ce boîtier. A l'intérieur du boîtier, il est couplé à un moyen d'entraînement qui est de préférence un moteur électrique. Le cas échéant, on peut prévoir différents even passes through a bearing housing and enters this housing. Inside the housing, it is coupled to a drive means which is preferably an electric motor. Where appropriate, different types of
éléments de transmission intermédiaires. intermediate transmission elements.
Le moteur électrique d'entraînement peut être alimenté par une batterie d'alimentation indépendante à l'intérieur du boîtier. Il existe egalement des coffres ou installations analogues ayant un branchement indépendant sur le réseau, ce qui permet de coupler le dispositif selon l'invention sur The electric drive motor can be powered by an independent power supply battery inside the housing. There are also chests or similar installations having an independent connection on the network, which makes it possible to couple the device according to the invention to
le réseau électrique.the electrical network.
En particulier pour prolonger le fonctionnement sur batterie, il est conseillé de coupler l'entraînement sur un circuit électronique qui actionne l'entraînement apres un certain temps, pour quelques rotations seulement de l'axe. Les paramètres correspondants dépendent de la montre. Il existe des montres pour lesquelles 5 à 6 rotations suffisent pour les maintenir en fonctionnement pendant plusieurs heures. Le mode de réalisation donné à titre d'exemple concerne une construction ouverte du dispositif; on peut toutefois envisager également une construction fermée par exemple un boîtier en matière plastique transparente. Aucune limite n'est fixée dans ce contexte aux caractéristiques générales de la In particular to prolong the battery operation, it is advisable to couple the drive to an electronic circuit which activates the drive after a certain time, for a few rotations only of the axis. The corresponding parameters depend on the watch. There are watches for which 5 to 6 rotations are enough to keep them running for several hours. The exemplary embodiment relates to an open construction of the device; it can however also consider a closed construction for example a transparent plastic housing. There is no limit in this context to the general characteristics of the
présente invention.present invention.
La présente invention sera décrite de manière plus détaillée à l'aide d'un exemple de réalisation préférentiel représenté dans les dessins annexés, dans lesquels: - la figure 1 est une vue de côté d'un dispositif selon l'invention pour remonter des montres, cette The present invention will be described in more detail using a preferred embodiment shown in the accompanying drawings, in which: - Figure 1 is a side view of a device according to the invention for winding watches , this

- la figure 2 est une vue de-dessus du dispositif de FIG. 2 is a view from above of the device
la figure 1.Figure 1.
Un dispositif P selon l'invention pour le remontage automatique de montre se compose d'un boîtier 1. Ce boîtier 1 comporte un moyen d'entraînement 2 (moteur) qui, dans l'exemple de réalisation représenté, est un moteur électrique; le boîtier comporte des bornes de raccordement 3, 4 pour A device P according to the invention for automatic winding watch consists of a housing 1. This housing 1 comprises a drive means 2 (motor) which, in the embodiment shown, is an electric motor; the housing has connection terminals 3, 4 for
une batterie 5 placée dans le logement à batterie 6. a battery 5 placed in the battery compartment 6.
On peut également envisager d'assurer l'alimentation du moteur 2 par un raccordement sur le réseau correspondant. Un axe d'entraînement 7 du moteur 2 est relié à un renvoi d'angle 8. A ce niveau, le mouvement de l'axe 7 est transmis à un axe de rotation 9 qui sort du boîtier 1. L'axe 9 traverse à cet effet un palier 10. A l'extérieur du boîtier 1, l'axe 9 porte deux rayons 11 et 12 et à chaque extrémité des rayons, It is also conceivable to supply the motor 2 with a connection to the corresponding network. A drive shaft 7 of the motor 2 is connected to an angle gear 8. At this level, the movement of the shaft 7 is transmitted to an axis of rotation 9 which leaves the housing 1. The axis 9 passes through this effect a bearing 10. Outside the housing 1, the axis 9 carries two spokes 11 and 12 and at each end of the spokes,
il est prévu une bande souple 13.a flexible band 13 is provided.
Chaque bande 13 sert à recevoir une montre 14 et le boîtier 15 de la montre esz placé dans un plan perpendiculaire à l'axe de rotation 9. Lorsque l'axe 9 tourne, le boîtier 15 de cette montre tourne également dans ce plan, si bien que le balourd de la transmission automatique de la montre conserve une position relative déterminée alors qe les autres parties du boîtier tournent autour de ce balourd. Cela Each band 13 serves to receive a watch 14 and the housing 15 of the watch is placed in a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation 9. When the axis 9 rotates, the housing 15 of this watch also rotates in this plane, if although the unbalance of the automatic transmission of the watch maintains a relative position determined while the other parts of the housing rotate around this unbalance. it
se traduit par le remontage de la montre. results in the reassembly of the watch.
Un bouton de rotation 16 est prévu sur le bcîtier 1; celui-ci permet par exezple d'ajuster l'intervalle de temps pendant lequel l'axe de rotation 9 effectue quelques rotations. La comman.de est assurée dans ce cas par un circuit électronique 17 qui n'est A rotation button 16 is provided on the housing 1; this allows for example to adjust the time interval during which the axis of rotation 9 makes a few rotations. The control is ensured in this case by an electronic circuit 17 which is not
représenté que schématiquement.represented only schematically.
A titre d'exemple, il est en outre prévu un affichage de fonctionnement 18 ainsi qu'un commutateur By way of example, an operating display 18 and a switch are furthermore provided.
