Definitions

the present invention relates to a push-button control device for a watch, and in particular a push-button control device, the button of which is designed to be seated, at least in part, in the middle part of the watch when the control device is actuated. .
the figure 1 illustrates such a device of the prior art.
the middle part 1 of a watch has a recess 2 whose bottom has a bore 3 in which is engaged the pusher tube 4 which is fixed in the middle part.
a push rod 8 associated with a push button 9 is disposed inside the tube so as to slide axially in the latter between a rest position and an active position.
the button 9 comprises a cap 5 which protrudes out of the recess 2. It can be seen that the cap 5 has an annular recess 11 formed around a central cylindrical portion into which the threaded end of the rod 8 is screwed.
the rod and the button 9 are returned to the rest position by a helical spring 13 surrounding the central cylindrical portion of the cap 5.
the spring 13 is supported by one of its ends against the bottom of the annular recess 11, while its other end is engaged in the tube 4.
the sealing of the tube 4 is provided by an O-ring 6 disposed in the annular recess 11.
the seal 6 is dimensioned so as to be compressed between the outer edge of the recess and the pusher tube 4.
the button 9 further comprises a ring 7 which closes the periphery of the recess 11 and which is provided to maintain the position of the seal 6.
a problem with the devices of the type just described is that it is in principle not possible to exactly adjust the dimension of the recess 2 to that of the push button 9. In fact, with customary manufacturing tolerances, we can not guarantee a perfect centering of the axis of the push rod 8 relative to the recess 2. In these conditions, it is necessary to provide a gap serving as a clearance space between the button 9 and the wall of the recess 2. A disadvantage of the presence of this gap is to allow the accumulation of dirt between the push button 9 and the middle 1. On the other hand, a defect of centering even light button 9 relative to the recess 2 can affect the aesthetics of the watch.
the middle part of the watch for which the push-button control device is intended comprises a cap serving as a covering for an underlying structure made in one material easier to machine or cheaper.
Such watch cases formed of a center of a first material covered with a protective or decorative cap of a second material are well known to those skilled in the art.
the patent document EP 1'102'136 describes a watch case comprising a center made of steel dressed with a cap made of a very hard and scratch-resistant material such as ceramic.
the figure 2 illustrates by way of example a chronograph watch equipped with pusher control devices 29 and whose box is dressed with a cap made of ceramic for example.
the push rod must naturally cross both the cap and the center of the watch case.
the cap and the center of the box must both be provided with an opening, and the opening of the cap must be superimposed as accurately as possible to the opening of the center once the two components of the box assembled .
the manufacturing tolerances of a machined part are normally all the more important, as the material in which this last is performed is difficult to work. But the accuracy of the adjustment of the cap on the center depends largely on the accuracy with which the cap was made.
the figure 3 illustrates by way of example a misalignment between the opening in the steel center and the opening of the cap 22. It is easy to understand that the insertion of a pusher control device into openings also misaligned can cause problems.
the push button may even be so off-center that it simply does not pass through the opening in the ceramic cap.
the misalignment is not sufficient to prevent the passage of the push button, it can compromise the aesthetic qualities of the watch.
An object of the present invention is to provide a solution to the alignment problems that have just been described.
the present invention accomplishes this goal by providing a push-button controller according to the appended claim 1.
the figure 4 provides a partial sectional view of the middle part 21a, 21b of a watch with a push-button control device corresponding to a particular embodiment of the present invention.
This watch could be for example the chronograph watch illustrated by the figure 2 .
the middle part of the watch shown is double and comprises a steel inner case (referenced 21a) and an outer caseband 21b forming part of a ceramic cap covering the steel watch case.
the middle part has a recess 22 which, in the present example, is circular and which is intended to receive a push button 29.
the bottom of the recess 22 has a bore 23 in which is engaged a push tube 24 which is fixed in the middle part 21 a.
the tube 24 is formed of two coaxial cylindrical portions 24a, 24b of different diameters and joined to one another at a circular shoulder 24c.
a push rod 28 is disposed inside the tube 24 so as to slide axially between an upper rest position (shown in FIG. figure 4 ) and a lower active position (in the following pages, the terms upper, lower, upper, lower, are used with reference to a pusher represented with its button pointing towards the top of the page as in the figure 4 ).
the push rod 28 is capped with an upper portion or cylindrical head 28a of larger diameter.
the head 28a comprises, on its lower face, an annular hollow 31 defining a skirt around the rod.
the diameter of the head 28a is provided to allow it to slide inside the portion 24a of larger diameter of the pusher tube 24, until abut in the active position against the shoulder 24c.
the stroke of the push rod 28 is limited in the other direction by a key 33 or circlip secured to the rod and which abuts in the rest position against the lower end of the push tube 24.
Two O-ring seals Sealing 36 ensuring a tight closure of the tube 24 are arranged in the tube portion 24b between the rod 28 and the tube. The two seals are held axially by a ring 42 which surrounds the rod 28 and closes the tube portion 24b at the shoulder 24c.
the push rod 28 is returned to the rest position by a helical spring 35 surrounding a portion of the rod 28.
the spring 35 is supported by one of its ends against the bottom of the annular recess 31, while its other end is supported by the pusher tube 24 through the ring 42.
the push button 29 can shift laterally with respect to the axis of the rod 28. It can be seen on the figure 4 that the pusher button 29 has a hollow cap 25 which protrudes out of the recess 22 and which covers the upper end of the cylindrical head 28a.
the cap 25 may advantageously be made from the same ceramic material as the outer middle part 21 b.
the cap 25 is rigidly attached to an annular base member, or ring, 27. As will now be explained, the annular base member 27 is mounted on the cylindrical head 28a with play.
the top of the head cylindrical 28a is pierced by a tapped axial hole 39.
a screw 40 whose threaded axis 38 is capped with a disc-shaped head 40, is screwed into the hole 39.
the screw 40 passes through a central circular opening of the base member 27, so that this element is sandwiched between the top of the push rod and the head of the screw 40.
the diameter of the central opening of the base member 27 is smaller than both at the diameter of the cylindrical head 28a and the head of the screw 40, the push button 29 can not be detached from the rod 28 without unscrewing the screw 40.
the diameter of the opening the center of the base member 27 is substantially larger than the diameter of the threaded shaft 38, so that the base member may, to a certain extent, shift laterally with respect to the axis of the screw 40 .
the upper edge of the head 28a of the push rod 28 and the lower edge of the head of the screw 40 form two parallel shoulders which define an annular groove in which the base element 27 is engaged.
the presence of the threaded spindle 38 makes it possible to adjust the width of the annular groove by more or less screwing or unscrewing the screw 40.
the width of the annular groove is determined so that the base element 27 is held without play in the axial direction.
the pressure exerted by the parallel shoulders 44, 46 on either side of the base member 27 also has the effect of maintaining the latter frictionally in the radial direction.
the materials used for the head 28a and the screw 40 and the base member 27, so as to promote a low-intensity fat friction can be chosen.
the head 28a and the screw 40 made of metal, for example stainless steel can be made and the base element made of a suitable plastic material such as a polyamide for example.
the pusher control device of the present example it is possible to operate as follows: first assemble the pusher without the button; then the annular base member 27 is placed on the head 28a of the push rod and these two elements are joined together by screwing the threaded pin 38 of the screw 40 into the threaded hole 39, after having introduced a drop of stick in it. We adjust the tightening of the screw 40 so as to obtain between the head 28a, the screw 40 and the base element 27 a fat friction of desired intensity. Finally, the ceramic cap 25 is fixed by screwing or gluing on the base element 27.
the fastening means of these two rod portions do not necessarily include a threaded shaft and a tapped hole.
a threaded shaft and a tapped hole it is possible to use, for example, a smooth shaft and a cylindrical hole; a drop of glue then preferably serving to hold the two parts in place.
