Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a date display mechanism for a timepiece such as a watch or a clock.
  • the invention relates more particularly to a mechanism making it possible to display the date in the form of large format characters.
  • the characters of the first disc consist of the series 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and those of the second disc by the series 0, 1, 2, 3, 0, 1, 2 , 3.
  • the control mechanism comprises a first star-shaped pinion, integral with the first disc, a second star-shaped pinion, integral with the second disc, and three superimposed wheels integral with each other.
  • the first of these wheels is controlled to take one step per day and has thirty-one teeth.
  • the second of these wheels cooperates with the first pinion and has thirty teeth and a free space occupying the place of a thirty-first tooth so that the number 1 of the units remains stationary for two consecutive days (the 31 and 1 st ) by thirty-one days.
  • This date display mechanism is relatively complex and expensive to manufacture in this sense, in particular, that it requires carrying out two discs of different sizes, that of the units and that of the tens, and two corresponding sprockets with different sizes and numbers of teeth.
  • the discs of the units and tens bear the same number of characters. These discs, like the corresponding pinions, can therefore have the same dimensions, which facilitates the manufacture of the mechanism and reduces the cost.
  • the present invention also provides a timepiece incorporating the mechanism defined above.
  • a date display module intended to be placed between the dial and the movement of a part timepiece, includes a plate 1 and, mounted on this plate, a mobile intermediate 2, a program mobile 3, two coplanar discs and juxtaposed 4, 5 carrying respectively the unit numbers and the unit numbers tens of the date, and two pinions 6, 7 respectively associated with discs 4, 5.
  • the plate 1 is intended to be fixed on the movement of the workpiece watchmaking.
  • the intermediate mobile 2 comprises a lower pinion 20 and a upper pinion 21 integral with each other and both carrying four teeth.
  • the lower pinion 20, located under the plate 1, is engaged with a crown of transmission 8.
  • This transmission crown 8 is for example the crown of calendar of the watch movement, bearing thirty-one teeth, or, as shown, a crown replacing this date crown and bearing thirty-three teeth.
  • Transmission ring 8 moves one step per day (that is to say by twenty-four hours) and involves in its movement the mobile intermediate 2.
  • the upper pinion 21, located on the upper face of the plate 1, is engaged with the program mobile 3. The latter comprises three wheels superimposed and integral with each other.
  • One of these wheels meshes with the upper pinion 21 and has thirty-one teeth evenly distributed around its periphery.
  • One second of these wheels, designated by 31, meshes with the pinion 6 and has on its periphery twenty-nine teeth 310 and a free space 311 occupying the place of two teeth consecutive.
  • As for the third of these wheels, designated by 32 it meshes with pinion 7 and has five teeth 320-324 unevenly distributed on its periphery and five free spaces 326-330 between these teeth occupying respectively the place of three teeth, four teeth, nine teeth, nine teeth and a tooth.
  • the disc of the units 4 is integral with the pinion 6 and comprises, regularly distributed along its periphery, characters forming the following sequence: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9.
  • the tens disc 5 is integral with the pinion 7 and includes, regularly distributed along its periphery, characters forming the following sequence: 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3.
  • the pinions 6, 7 have the same number of teeth as the number of characters carried by the discs 4, 5, or ten teeth.
  • the characters of discs 4, 5 are of a large format, that is to say they each occupy on the dial of the timepiece an angular space greater than a thirty-first turn.
  • the timepiece has, in its dial, a window consisting of two juxtaposed parts, a straight part 9 revealing a character carried by the disc of units 4 and indicative of the unit of the date and a left part 10 revealing a character carried by the disc of tens 5 and indicative of the tenth of the calendar.
  • the meshing between the wheel 31 and the pinion of the units 6 is made in such a way that each tooth of wheel 31 (respectively of wheel 32), once it has entered the toothing of the pinion of the units 6 (respectively of the tens pinion 7), cooperates with a tooth of the pinion of the units 6 (respectively of the pinion of the tens 7) during two consecutive steps of the program mobile 3.
  • the wheel 30, and more generally the program mobile 3 takes one step, that is to say a thirty-first revolution, per day.
  • the pinion of the units 6 is driven by the wheel 31 of the program mobile 3 also at the rate of one step, ie a tenth of a turn, per day except one day per month, corresponding to the passage from 31 of a month to the 1st of the following month, where the free space 311 is opposite the pinion 6 so that the disc of the units 4 is not driven and the character "1" remains in the display position.
  • the tens pinion 7, and therefore the tens disc 5 performs one revolution in thirty-one days.
  • the tooth 320 of the wheel 32 advances the tens disc 5 by one step when passing from the 31st of each month to the 1st of the following month to replace under the left part 10 of the window a second character "3", designated by 51 ( Figure 6), by a first character "0", designated by 52, then another step when switching from 1 to 2 to replace the first character "0" by a second character "0" designated by 53.
  • the tooth 322 of the wheel 32 advances the tens 5 disc by one step during the changeover from 9 to 10 of each month to replace under the left part 10 of the counter the last character "0" by a first character "1", designated by 56, then another step when going from 10 to 11 to replace the first character "1" with a second character "1", designated by 57.
  • the tooth 323 of the wheel 32 advances the tens 5 disc by one step when going from 19 to 20 of each month to replace under the party left 10 of the counter the second character "1" with a first character "2", designated by 58, then another step when going from 20 to 21 to replace the first character "2" with a second character "2", designated by 59.
  • the tooth 324 of the wheel 32 advances the disc tens of 5 by not during the passage from 29 to 30 of each month to replace under the party left 10 of the counter the second character "2" with a first character "3", designated by 60, then another step when going from 30 to 31 to replace the first character "3" with the second character "3", designated by 51.
  • the correction of the indication of date is done manually by means of the time-setting rod timepiece.
  • the free spaces 326-330 provided on the periphery of the wheel 32 define a diameter D1 which is greater than the diameter D2 defined by the toothing of this wheel 32, this diameter D1 being otherwise small enough to allow wheel 32 to turn without drive the pinion of tens 7 when it is opposite a space free, and large enough so that, in the same situation, the pinion 7 is locked in rotation by the wheel 32.
  • This pinion locking system of the pinion 7 is complementary to the jumper 12 and has the function of preventing the pinion 7 unintentionally rotates in the event of shock or too rapid adjustment of the date via the time-setting rod. This blocking system allows voluntarily reduce the strength of the jumper 12 and therefore reduce the torque necessary to advance the disc 5, hence an energy saving of operation.
  • a similar blocking system is provided on the wheel 31.
  • the free space 311 of this wheel 31 defines a diameter D3 greater than the diameter D4 bottom of teeth, this diameter D3 being such that, when the pinion 6 is in look of the free space 311, the wheel 31 can rotate without driving the pinion 6 and the latter is locked in rotation by the wheel 31.
  • FIG. 7 shows a variant of the mechanism according to the invention, in which the characters "0" on the tens disc are replaced by white spaces. Such white spaces are considered as part of the this patent application as characters.
