Definitions

  • the hammer or hammers in idle mode are maintained in a position for which their strike zone is close to the stamp, a counter-spring or damper, ensuring a rest position of the hammer slightly removed from the stamp, this not to dampen the free vibrations of the stamp. In this position of the rest mode of the striking mechanism the hammer drive spring is disarmed.
  • this ring gear comprises a speed controller.
  • Such striking mechanisms are for example described in the documents EP 2 362 278 , EP 2 362 279 or US 587,574 . It can thus be seen that throughout the evolution of the striking mechanisms in the rest position of the mechanism the hammer is in the immediate vicinity of the bell and its drive spring is not cocked. It is at the sounding of the ring that the hammer is moved back and its spring then released for striking.
  • the ringing does not occur at the exact moment desired but with a certain delay.
  • the objects of the present invention are, taken separately or in combination, to simplify the ring gear, to allow the suppression of the spring-spring or the damper so as to allow a better energy transmission of the hammer to the stamp and d improve the accuracy of the ring, that is to say to allow to hit the stamp with the hammer at a predetermined time with great precision.
  • the drive spring 6 is secured to a heel 6.2 pivoted on the plate 2 of movement about an axis or pin 6.3.
  • An eccentric E pivoted in the plate 2 serves as a stop for the heel 6.2 of the spring 6.
  • the angular position of the eccentric E makes it possible to adjust the angular position of the heel 6.3 and thus the force applied by the spring 6 on the hammer 3.
  • heel 6.3 of the drive spring 6 could be fixed without the possibility of adjustment on the plate 2 or fixed on the plate in an adjustable manner by other means.
  • This striking mechanism also comprises a device for winding the driving spring 6 of the hammer 3 comprising an arming wheel consisting of in this first embodiment of the mechanism by a winding wheel 8 having a set of teeth 8.1 at its periphery.
  • This winding wheel 8 is pivoted on the plate 2 of the movement and is integral with a pinion 9 meshing with a toothed wheel 10 integral with the cage of a barrel comprising a mainspring (not shown).
  • This barrel may be the engine cylinder of the watch movement or the barrel dedicated to the striking mechanism and the kinematic link connecting this barrel to the mobile device 8 may be of any nature other than that described and illustrated here.
  • This striking mechanism further comprises a locking device of the arming device constituted in this example by a rocker 11 pivoted at 11.1 on the plate and a first end 11.2 cooperates with the toothing 8.1 of the winding wheel 8 while the second end 11.3 is placed in a notch 14 that includes the hub of the hammer 3.
  • This notch 14 is located in the immediate vicinity of the tooth 7 of the hammer 3.
  • the blank of this tooth 7 opposite that coming into contact with the spring of drive 6 forms one side of said notch 14.
  • the arming device of the driving spring 6 of the hammer 3 further comprises a winding lever 12 pivoted on the hammer 12.1 non-coaxially with the pivot axis 4 of the hammer 3.
  • This arming lever 12 comprises two pins 12.2, 12.3 serving as stops to a flexible guide 13 fixed by one of its ends on the plate 2.
  • This flexible guide is positioned to intersect the pivot axis 12,2 of the arming lever 12 on the hammer and to extend between the two pins 12.2, 12.3 of the lever 12.
  • direction of the flexible guide is such that it passes through the apex of the teeth 8.1 of the winding wheel 8 and the pivot axis 12.1 of the arming lever 12.
  • the flexible guide 13 formed of a flexible blade is positioned at rest parallel to the plate 2 and in a plane perpendicular to the plate 2 passing through the pivot axis 12.1 of the arming lever 1 and the end of a tooth 8.1 of the winding wheel 8.
  • the mechanism is thus again in the rest position ( figure 1 ) for which the hammer 3 is removed from the stamp and the hammer drive spring 6 is armed.
  • the rake 15 may either be actuated again by one step by the triggering device of the striking mechanism to ring a further blow, or be downgraded to the rest position.
  • This mechanism is simple, it requires little room, the ring gear is reduced and does not include a cruise control. This mechanism does not include a counter-spring or damper for the hammer 3.
  • the ringing is immediate fall of the hammer 3 being practically instant from its pre-armed position.
  • the accuracy of the moment when the ringtone should sound is greatly improved.
  • the ringing power is also improved because there is no more energy loss due to the hammer counter-spring.
  • the blocking device formed by the blocking lever 11 makes it possible, when the striking mechanism is in the idle state, to hold the driving spring 6 in the armed position and to hold the hammer 3 in a position for which part 5 intended to hit the stamp 1 is away from the latter.
  • the winding wheel 8 can be made in another form, for example a mobile armature having the shape of a toothed sector connected to the barrel cage by a unidirectional clutch. Its connection to the barrel can also be performed differently.
  • the device locking of the arming device can also be achieved otherwise than with a blocking lever.
  • the release element formed by the rake 15 in this embodiment can also be made differently, it is still controlled against by the watch movement or by a manual triggering member such as a pusher.
  • the striking mechanism does not need to have a counter-spring or damper to prevent the hammer from coming to rest against the stamp under the action of shocks that may be experienced by the piece of equipment. watchmaking. It also does not include cruise control.
  • the striking mechanism is simpler and above all makes it possible to transmit a maximum of energy to the tone when the hammer is struck on this stamp, the energy loss due to the counter-spring or damper being eliminated.
  • the ringing is done immediately after its release, the time required to arm the hammer drive spring being removed.
  • This second embodiment of the striking mechanism further comprises a device for winding the driving spring 6 of the hammer 3 comprising a winding arm consisting of a winding wheel 8 pivoted on the plate 2 and having a toothing formed of teeth 8.1.
  • This winding wheel 8 is integral with a pinion 9 meshing with a toothed wheel 10 secured to or kinematically connected to the cage of a barrel and thus to the mainspring of the movement (not shown).
  • This barrel may be the engine cylinder of the watch movement or a barrel dedicated to the striking mechanism and the kinematic connection connecting the barrel to the mobile device 8 may be of any nature other than that described here.
  • This arming device further comprises a winding member 20 comprising a heel 20.1 fixed by a screw 20.2 and a pin 20.3 on the hammer 3.
  • This armature member 20 further comprises a spring blade 20.4 whose end has the shape a hook 20.5. The elasticity of this spring blade tends to apply the hook 20.5 against a tooth 8.1 of the winding wheel 8.
  • This striking mechanism further comprises a locking device of the armoring device comprising a trigger 21 pivoted at 21.1 on the plate 2 and whose end 21.2 is engaged in a notch 22 that includes the hub of the hammer 3.
  • This trigger comprises a pallet 21.4 intended to cooperate with the teeth 8.1 of the winding wheel 8. This pallet 21.4 extends perpendicularly out of the plane of the trigger 21.
  • the triggering mechanism of the striking mechanism comprises a trigger wheel 23 having a sawtooth toothing.
  • This trigger wheel is driven by the clockwork movement or by a usual ringing mechanism of a specified number of steps when the ring is to be activated.
  • This triggering mechanism also comprises a trigger rocker 24, pivoted at 24.1 on the plate 2, which comprises a first arm 24.2 whose end 24.3 cooperates with the toothing of the trigger wheel 23 and a second arm 24.4 whose end cooperates with an extension of the hook 20.5 extending below the winding wheel 8.
  • a return spring 25 tending to maintain the first arm 24.2 of this flip-flop 24 against a stop 26, in the rest position for which the end 24.3 of the first arm 24.2 of the rocker 24 is located on the path of the teeth of the trigger wheel 23 and for which the end of the second arm 24.4 of the flip-flop 24 is not in contact with the hook extension 20.5.
  • This operation is repeated for each triggering of the latch 24 in the clockwise direction.
