Definitions
- the invention relates to an atypical shape stamp for a striking mechanism of a watch.
- the invention also relates to a watch with a striking mechanism comprising at least one stamp of atypical shape.
- the invention also relates to a method for producing an atypical shape stamp for a striking mechanism of a watch.
- the stamp or stamps used are each constituted by a metal wire generally of circular shape and placed in a plane parallel to the dial of the watch.
- the metal wire of each stamp is generally arranged around the movement, in the watch cage and above a plate on which the different parts of the movement are mounted.
- One end or several ends of each patch is fixed, for example by brazing, to a stamp holder integral with the plate, for example, which may be unique for all the stamps.
- the other end of each stamp may be generally free.
- the striking mechanism of the watch also includes at least one hammer actuated at predetermined times.
- the vibration of each stamp is produced by the impact of the corresponding hammer on the stamp near the stamp holder.
- Each hammer generally performs a partial rotation in the plane of the stamp or stamps so as to strike the corresponding stamp and make it vibrate in its plane, that is to say in an X-Y plane parallel to the bottom or the dial of the watch. Part of the vibration of the stamp is still transmitted to the plate by the stamp holder.
- minute-repeater watches for improving the vibro-acoustic radiation it may be provided to first limit the noise of the mechanism by regulating elements, and secondly to increase the acoustic level by different elements of the system. dressing. On the other hand, it is not often imagined to optimize the tone generating vibrations radiated by the dressing of the watch.
- the stamp is generally in the form of an arc disposed around the watch movement or above said watch movement.
- a vibration frequency is adapted
- the patent application CH 708 036 A2 which describes a striking clock device with at least one stamp made of titanium or titanium alloy. It can be provided two vibrating stamps, which are each struck by a corresponding hammer. One of the stamps comprises along its length several through holes or hollow crossing in defined positions to obtain the desired musical pitch and duration. The stamps are configured as portions of a circle. However, nothing is described concerning the tuning of several main vibration frequencies of each timbre to obtain a harmonious sound and a sufficient number of partials in the audible range according to the size of the timbre, which constitute some disadvantages.
- the patent US 3,013,460 describes a musical keyboard with a number of blades, which are all connected to a heel coming directly from material with the blades.
- the keyboard can be attached to a turntable by screws, which pass through openings in a cover plate on the top of the heel, and openings in the heel.
- the thickness of the blades is adjusted by a machining wheel, which can be moved from the heel and over a portion of each blade to adjust the melody of the keyboard.
- a cover plate is used to hide the machined parts of each blade.
- nothing is described concerning the tuning of several main frequencies of vibration of each blade to obtain a harmonious sound, which is a drawback.
- the patent US 7,746,732 B2 describes a stamp of a ringing device.
- This stamp can be configured between its attachment to a stamp holder and its free movement end with a cross section, which increases or with continuous cross sectional variations along its length so as to increase the richness and quality of the sound issued when the stamp is struck.
- a cross section which increases or with continuous cross sectional variations along its length so as to increase the richness and quality of the sound issued when the stamp is struck.
- the object of the invention is therefore to overcome the disadvantages of the state of the art by providing an atypical shape stamp for a mechanism ringing of a watch, in order to produce more favorably audible vibrations and with a harmonious sound without dissonances.
- the invention relates to a stamp of atypical shape for a striking mechanism of a watch cited above, which comprises the features defined in the independent claim 1.
- the stamp includes tuning geometric points, which are preferably notches arranged along the timbre.
- the stamp may comprise at least two notches made in defined locations along its length. Preferably once the stamp mounted in the watch case, these notches are made on a non-visible part of the outside of the watch case.
- it can be expected to adjust at least two frequencies, or even three or four frequencies or more depending on the number of notches.
- the notches made and arranged at well-defined locations along the length of the patch, it is possible on the one hand to increase the number of partials of the vibration tone in the audible range from 0 to 5 kHz, and this even with a timbre shorter than usual.
- Frequencies above 5 kHz add intensity, richness and brilliance to the sound. It is possible to finely adjust the frequencies manually or automatically with the help of a machining robot with the realization of these notches.
- said stamp it is possible to configure said stamp to ensure the main frequencies of vibration well tuned together.
- These tuned frequencies can be set according to Western or Oriental or African musical chords.
- the patch may comprise at least one rectilinear part and one curved part. At least one end of the stamp is intended to be attached to a stamp holder, but it is conceivable to have both ends of the stamp attached to the same stamp holder. At least one notch is made on the rectilinear part and another notch is made on the curved part.
- the curved portion can be retouched so as to aesthetically represent a shape of B. This aesthetic appearance can be sought, since the stamp is visible from the outside of the watch case through the watch ice.
- the invention also relates to a striking mechanism watch, which comprises the features defined in the independent claim 10.
- the striking mechanism comprises two timbres each fixed to a stamp holder and tuned differently from each other to each generate a specific sound to indicate hours or minutes.
- Each stamp may have at least two notches along its length to be able to generate a harmonious sound.
- the stamps are mounted parallel to the dial and below the watch glass so to be visible by the watch ice. The notches of the stamps are therefore made on a non-visible surface of the outside of the watch.

- the second notch 5b can be machined over a length d2 in the rectilinear part 3a of the stamp and with a defined depth in the general thickness of the stamp.
- the two depths of the notches made may be similar preferably, but it may be conceivable to achieve them with a different depth in the general thickness of the stamp.
- the two notches 5a, 5b can be machined over the entire width of the stamp 3.
- the notches 5a, 5b or recesses or grooves made locally reduce the stiffness of the stamp 3.
