Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for simultaneously resetting two time counters.
  • the present invention relates in particular to a simultaneous resetting device of two time counters of a chronograph mechanism whose pivot axes are integral with respective resetting cams in the form of cores.
  • Such a device comprises in particular a lever with two hammers striking against the cores to rotate them back to an angular position corresponding to the zero counters.
  • a heart-shaped reset cam is associated with the counter axis.
  • Such a cam is associated with a hammer which has a striking face such that when it bears on the symmetrical shoulders of the cam, it allows the hammer to immobilize the heart in an angular position corresponding to the zero of the counter. If, because of the operation of the chronograph mechanism, the heart-shaped cam is spaced apart from its angular position corresponding to the zero of the counter and the hammer strikes it, said cam will rotate under the effect of the force of the hammer and return to its angular position corresponding to the zero of the counter. In this position, the striking face of the hammer is supported on the two shoulders of the heart-shaped cam and immobilizes it.
  • the balance of forces may be such that the action exerted by the user on the control pusher becomes lower than the reaction of the various mechanical elements operated under the effect of this action.
  • the action of the user becomes inoperative and the meters come to rest in a non-controllable position. Therefore, anything that can continue to decrease reaction forces opposed by the chronograph mechanism when controlling it must be examined. For this purpose, it is of the greatest interest to seek to reduce the friction forces that oppose the movement of the lever with two hammers.
  • the object of the present invention is to meet this and other objectives by providing a device for resetting two time counters in which the friction forces are reduced.
  • the present invention relates to a timepiece device for simultaneous resetting of two time counters, in particular for a chronograph mechanism, each of these two time counters being rotated about an axis integral with a cam, the simultaneous resetting device comprising a lever with two hammers which are applied against the respective cams during the reset of the two time counters, at least a pin for guiding the lever with two hammers being integral with this lever and moving in a shaped opening made in a bridge, characterized in that a ring is mounted free to rotate around the pin and is interposed between said pin and the opening shape in which it moves.
  • the present invention provides a device for simultaneous resetting of two time counters in which the lever with two hammers responsible for bringing the counters to zero by acting on the corresponding cams opposes a lower resistance to displacement thanks to the fact that, if its guide pin is forced against the edges of the shaped opening in which it moves, said pin will roll via its ring against these flanges and therefore oppose a lower friction force.
  • This is particularly advantageous in the centering phase, when the pin reaches the bottom of the opening shape where it has a slight degree of freedom in pivoting to allow the lever with two hammers to accommodate a slight shift of hearts and bring them back to their angular position corresponding to the zero of the counters.
  • the two-hammer lever is guided by two pins which are integral with this lever and which each move in an opening of shape made in the bridge, one of these pins allowing coupling in pivoting between said two-hammer lever and a control lever on which the user can act to return the cams to an angular position corresponding to the zero of the counters.
  • the pin by which the lever with two hammers is articulated to the control lever carries a ring, while the other pin carries two superposed rings, the one below plays the role of thick shim to compensate for the thickness of the control lever.
  • the ring is a metal part Vietnameselletée or a stone.
  • the stone is a ruby.
  • the present invention proceeds from the general inventive idea of reducing the frictional forces on the double-hammer lever of an instantaneous reset mechanism of a dual-time display in the dual purpose of limiting the reaction forces exerted by the mechanism under the effect of its actuation to a value lower than the value of the action exerted by the user to put this mechanism into operation, and to ensure that the The force exerted by the striking faces of the hammers on the cores is perpendicular to the shoulders of the cams or, at least, fits in a limited angular sector ensuring the immobilization of the cams in a specific angular position corresponding to the zero of the counters.
  • the present invention essentially relates to a new design of an instantaneous reset mechanism comprising a two-hammer lever and that such a mechanism can equally well be used in a chronograph mechanism with two time counters. in any other time counter mechanism comprising two display devices (minute and second for example) to be reset simultaneously using a control lever or reset.
  • This mechanism 1 essentially comprises a reset lever 2 and a lever 4 comprising two hammers 6 and 8. These hammers 6 and 8 each have an inclined striking face 6a and 8a by which they control the immobilization in a given angular position two cams 6b and 8b (see figure 2 ) corresponding to the zero of two time counters, one of which, denoted by the reference numeral 7, is visible at the figure 4 .
  • the lever 4 with two hammers 6 and 8 has two pins 10 and 12 which are integral with the lever 4, for example by driving and riveting.
  • the pin 10 is used in particular for the articulation pivoting between the lever 4 with two hammers 6, 8 and the reset lever 2.
  • the reset lever 2 has an oblong hole 14 in which the pin 10 is slidable.
  • a ring 16a is freely mounted on the pin 10 while two superposed rings 16b and 16c are mounted free on the pin 12.
  • the ring 16c acts as a shim to compensate for the thickness of the lever. reset 2.
  • the wedges 16b and 16c could be made in one piece.
  • the shims 16a-16c can be metal parts Vietnamese or stones. In the latter case, they can be made in rubies.
  • the lever 4 is in a position where the two hammers 6 and 8 immobilize the cams 6b and 8b in an angular position corresponding to the zero of the time counters. More specifically, the striking faces 6a and 8a of the hammers 6, 8 are supported on the respective shoulders 6c and 8c of the cams 6b and 8b.
  • the lever 4 with two hammers 6, 8 is brought into the position illustrated in FIG. figure 2 by pressure of the user on a pusher (not shown) in the direction of the arrow F.
  • This pressure is transmitted to the reset lever 2 by means of a rocker 18 against the restoring force d 20.
  • the reset lever zero 2 rotates about its axis 22 in the direction of clockwise and causes the translation of the lever 4 to two hammers 6, 8 to the position shown in the figure 2 .
  • the lever 4 with two hammers 6, 8 is guided in translation through its two pins 10, 12 adapted to move in two corresponding shaped holes 24 and 26 formed in a bridge or platen 28 of the movement (see figure 4 ).
  • the rings 16a, 16b are free to rotating around the pins 10, 12, the frictional forces between said pins 10, 12 and the edges of the shaped holes 24, 26 are significantly reduced. This makes it possible to avoid that the reaction produced by the reset mechanism under the effect of its actuation is greater than the action exerted by the user to actuate this reset mechanism. If this condition was not fulfilled, the user action would become inoperative and the meters would come to a halt in an uncontrollable position.
