Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of mechanical watchmaking. It relates, more particularly, a timepiece comprising a striking mechanism. More specifically, the invention relates to a part of the striking mechanism for ringing a unit of the current time, that is to say either hours, quarters or minutes.
  • Ringing mechanisms are widely known to those skilled in the art. The best known is the minute rehearsal that lets you ring the time, quarter and minutes of the current time on demand. We can notably refer to the book “ Theory of Watchmaking “by Reymondin et al, Federation of Technical Schools, 1998, ISBN 2-940025-10-X, pages 219-224 for details on this type of construction.
  • the lifts and the hammers are generally arranged next to each other and two toothed sectors arranged on a quarter striking piece are adjusted so as to cooperate with the lifts to actuate the hammers.
  • the levées and the hammers are located in the same region of the movement, which can pose a problem in some cases, when the manufacturer does not have enough room to accommodate these elements.
  • One of the aims of the present invention is to propose a new repetition mechanism for distributing certain elements more harmoniously in the movement so that the manufacturer can benefit from greater flexibility in the arrangement of the components of the movement.
  • This arrangement of the arms advantageously makes it possible for the first and second lifts to be disposed on either side of a first axis AA passing through the center of the movement and perpendicular to a second axis BB joining the center of the movement and the axis of movement. pivoting of one of the lifts.
  • the first and second arms each pivot about a pivot axis and are kinematically connected.
  • the pivot axes of the first and second arms are distinct and the arms move in opposite directions.
  • the invention is particularly adapted to the ringing of quarters, but it is quite possible to use other ringing sequences in which the hour or minutes of the current time, that is to say different units of the current time, would be sounded on two different stamps.
  • the figures show the essential elements of a striking mechanism according to the invention. These are mounted on a plate and on unrepresented bridges. To simplify the figures, the basic movement, the energy source of the striking mechanism, the hammers and the stamps were not represented. The connection of the ringing parts to the basic movement, the stamps and the hammers are quite conventional. We can particularly refer to the book "Theory of watchmaking" cited above.
  • the snails are therefore driven by the basic movement to give information on the current time, each snail giving information on a unit of the current time.
  • the hours, minutes or quarters of the current time are called units of the current time.
  • a ratchet hour 18 having a toothed sector provided with twelve teeth is arranged to cooperate with a first lift 20, actuating a first hammer.
  • the ratchet 18 is intended to be driven by the energy source during the course of the ring.
  • the ratchet 18 is mounted coaxially with an input wheel 19 kinematically connected to the energy source.
  • ratchet could also be coaxially mounted directly on an armed bell barrel when the bell is triggered by a rack, as in the case of conventional minute repetitions.
  • the ratchet 18 is kinematically connected to a feeler of the hours 24 pivoting on the plate, via a gear 22 coaxial with the ratchet 18 and meshing with a toothed sector 24A of the hour sensor 24.
  • the latter is provided with a finger 24B disposed in the plane of the hour snail 16 so as to come cooperate with him to take information on the time of the current time.
  • a spring 26 is positioned to exert a force tending to apply the finger 24B against the snail 16.
  • the spring 26 is a spiral spring and acts directly on the ratchet 18, which, by the connecting teeth the ratchet 18 at the feeler 24 pushes the finger 24B towards the snail 16.
  • the quarters of the current time are sounded on two timbres, the succession of a first sound obtained on a first timbre and a second sound obtained on a second timbre representing a quarter.
  • the quarter ring parts comprise, in particular, a first 28A and a second 28B arm each terminating in a toothed sector 30A and 30B provided with three teeth each, intended to cooperate respectively with the first lift 20 and with a second lift 32.
  • the lifts are substantially distant from each other, being almost diametrically opposed in the example shown in the figures.
  • the first and second arms pivot in two distinct axes.
  • the first arm is advantageously coaxial with the feeler of the hours 24.
  • Each arm 28A and 28B comprises, at its pivot axis, a circular toothing 34A and 34B, meshing with each other in order to connect them kinematically.
  • the toothed sectors can be made by means of boards 35A and 35B at least partially toothed, coaxial and rotationally integral arms 28A and 28B. Thus, they may not be in the same plane. They rotate in opposite directions, giving the impression of a movement of animal wings.
  • One of the arms also acts as a probe and is provided with a finger 36 disposed in the plane of the quarter snail 12 so as to be able to cooperate with it to take information on the quarter of the current time.
  • a spring 38 is arranged to exert a force tending to apply the finger 36 against the snail 12.
  • the spring 38 is a spiral spring and acts at the pivot axis of the arm 28A which , through the teeth connecting the two arms, pushes the finger 36 towards the snail 12.
  • the probe 24 For the kinematic connection of the arms 28A and 28B with the energy source, the probe 24 comprises a stud 40 visible in FIGS. 3 and 4 and situated in the plane and at the level of the toothing 34A.
  • the edge of the toothed sector 30A is arranged to receive the support of the stud 40 during operation of the ring.
  • the quarter toothed sectors 30A and 30B are made by means of a plate 42 attached to the end of the arms 28A and 28B.
  • This plate 42 is screwed into oblongs 44 formed in the arm.
  • the end of the arm advantageously comprises a flange 41 against which the wafer abuts by a bearing zone 43. The latter can be filed or adjusted to position the wafer optimally.
  • a minute ringer piece 48 ending in a rake 50 is provided on its distal side relative to the center of the movement, a first toothed sector 50A of fourteen teeth intended to cooperate with the second lift 32.
  • the part 48 is pivotally mounted on the plate, preferably coaxial with the second arm 28B.
  • the minute piece 48 also has a finger 52 disposed in the plane of the minute snail 10 so that it can cooperate with it to take information on the minutes of the current time.
  • a spring 54 is arranged to exert a force tending to apply the finger 52 against the snail 10.
  • the spring 54 is a wire spring and acts on the edge of the minute piece.
  • the rake 50 has on its proximal side relative to the center of the movement, a second toothed sector 50B with, for example, six teeth. These are intended to cooperate with a minute hook 58 pivotally mounted on the arm 28B.
  • This hook 58 comprises a spring 60 arranged to exert a force tending to apply it against the second toothed sector 50B.
  • a bearing element typically a kind of ruby wheel 62, is disposed on the arm 28B and cooperates with a guide element which may advantageously be a bridge 64 located for example under the arm 28B.
  • the spring 60 presses the wheel 62 against the bridge 64, the shape of which is adjusted so as to control whether the hook 58 cooperates or not with the second toothed sector 50B.
  • the bridge 64 has a recess 66.
  • the wheel 62 is located upstream, on a side 66A, the hook 58 is not engaged with the toothed sector 50B and the arm 28B moves independently of the workpiece 48.
  • the spring presses the hook 58 against the toothed sector 50B and these elements come into engagement, the arm 28B driving the minute piece 58 during its movement in the direction of clockwise.
  • the wheel is then no longer supported against the bridge 64.
  • the recess 66 is adjusted so that the part 58 is driven after the ringing quarters is complete.
  • the minute piece 48 is one of the elements mentioned above which reduce the movement of the arm 28B, serving as a support for the balls 46.
  • the hour sensor 24 and the striking barrel are kinematically connected via the ratchet 18.
  • the arms 28 of the quarters are also kinematically connected to the hour sensor 24 via the stud 40 and the Finally, the roller 62 is pressed against the flank 66B of the guide element, the hook 58 of the minute piece 48 cooperating with the first tooth of the toothed sector 50B.
  • all the ring pieces are kinematically connected to each other and to the barrel of ringing.
  • the energy source is unlocked and drives the ringing pieces.
  • the hour ratchet 18 moves and its toothed sector cooperates with the lift 20 to ring the hours. This also causes the displacement of the probe 24.
  • the pad 40 Towards the end of the hour ring, the pad 40 is substantially in contact with the arm 28A.
  • the power source puts the first 28A and the second 28B arm in motion. They then move counterclockwise and clockwise, respectively.
  • the toothed sectors 30A and 30B cooperate respectively with the first lift 20 and with the second lift 32 to ring quarters.
  • the hook 58 engages the toothed sector 50B, as shown in FIG. minutes 48 is then, in turn, driven by the energy source. Its first toothed sector 50A then cooperates with the second lift 32 to ring the minutes.
  • a striking mechanism in which the ringing quarter is obtained through a first and a second toothed sectors, arranged at the end of two separate arms.
  • the lifts and hammers used may be arranged at the periphery of the movement chosen by the manufacturer. The latter can therefore position with more flexibility the various components of its movement.
  • the construction of the hour and minute ringing parts is also adapted so that they act on the lifts substantially distant from each other.
  • the mechanism proposed above is particularly advantageous when the first and the second survey define an angle at the center of the movement that may be greater than ten degrees, which may be greater than twenty degrees or thirty degrees.
  • the position of the lifts can also be defined by the fact that they are arranged on either side of a first axis AA passing through the center of the movement and perpendicular to a second axis BB joining the center of the movement and the axis pivoting of one of the lifts.
  • first and second arms are integral with each other, can even come from a room. In such a case, they form between them a non-zero angle.
  • the mechanism according to the invention can be adapted to different types of ringing, such as minutes, big bell, westminster ...
  • the mechanism according to the invention can further allow different aesthetic improvements, by releasing certain parts of the movement.
