Definitions

  • the invention relates to the field of date display devices for mechanical watches and in particular to an annual calendar.
  • JP 2651150 shows an annual calendar in which a mechanism causes a wheel carrying the date display to be advanced by two units only at the end of a short month.
  • a drive wheel provided for this purpose which carries a driver, is arranged in a stationary manner.
  • US 2,886,910 shows a calendar mechanism in which a lever at the end of each month reads the information coded by a wheel via a pin, whether the month in question is long or short.
  • a driver which is firmly screwed onto a gearwheel with a specified axis of rotation, actuates the calendar mechanism.
  • CH 705901 shows different annual calendars.
  • a driver causes a wheel carrying the date display to switch directly from the 30th to the 1st day at the end of a short month.
  • the date display device has a drive wheel which is coupled to the clockwork of the mechanical watch.
  • the device is driven via this coupling and thus a time signal is also introduced into the device.
  • a device Connected to and driven by the drive wheel is a device which in turn interacts with a date wheel at regular intervals and drives it.
  • This device is referred to below as a "driver device”.
  • the device has a monthly wheel which interacts directly or via intermediate wheels with the date wheel and which assumes an angular position representing the month of the year.
  • the coupling of the drive wheel to the clockwork is particularly fixed in the sense that movement of the clockwork causes a corresponding movement of the drive wheel at all times - in particular, the drive wheel is coupled to the clockwork via a gear connection.
  • the angular position of the date wheel - which can be a date gear - is characteristic of the date, which can be used directly or indirectly, via an element coupled to the date wheel, for the date display.
  • the entraining device has a unit called a "entrainer" which, for example, comes into direct contact with the date wheel, and an axis of rotation about which the entrainer rotates.
  • the path on which the driver moves about the axis of rotation is designed, for example, but not necessarily, as a circular path.
  • the driver can also interact indirectly with the date wheel, for example via intermediate wheels and / or pins.
  • the driving device can assume at least two positions, which differ by their position relative to the date wheel or the axis of rotation of the date wheel, and consequently by the angle by which the driving device rotates the date wheel per interaction. If the entraining device rotates the date wheel per interaction in a first position by one unit, it rotates the date wheel per interaction in a second position by a plurality of units. The device is set up at a predetermined angular position of the date wheel (corresponding to the end of the month, in particular the 30th of the month) or not to bring the driving device from the first to the second position depending on a state of the month wheel.
  • the fact that the entrainment device can assume two positions relative to the date wheel means that the entrainment device as a whole can assume two positions relative to the date wheel, ie in particular also to the Axis of rotation of the driving device - ie the two positions differ in particular not only by different rotating positions of the driving devices.
  • a monthly cam disk which may encode the length of the month and, depending on its angular position, may or may not move to the second position, may also be coupled to the monthly wheel.
  • Date display devices of the type claimed herein are often considered examples of so-called complications. In the present case, however, this should not constitute a statement about the complexity of the device; rather, the approach according to the invention enables a particularly simple and, if necessary, a particularly well integrated structure in the clockwork.
  • the same mechanism is used both for advancing the date wheel by one day on a regular date change and for advancing the date wheel by more than one day at the end of a shorter month ,
  • the difference between advancing by one or more days is therefore not caused by different mechanisms as known from the prior art and also not by drive paths of different widths (e.g. rotations of different sizes) of the driving mechanism, but by setting a relative position of the driving mechanism Mechanism (driving device) and the date wheel.
  • the relative movement between the first and the second position is, for example, a movement of the driving device relative to the other parts of the device, so the date wheel is then fixed in its position.
  • the reverse movement of the date wheel with, for example, a fixed path of the driving device is not excluded.
  • the first of the two positions corresponds to the normal position, which is constantly occupied with the exception of the end of the month.
  • the second position is taken in short months at the end of the month, so that the date wheel skips a day in its movement when interacting with the driving device.
  • the positions of the driving device and date wheel can change both in their horizontal, i.e. distinguish in a plane parallel to the plane of the date wheel, as well as vertical positions.
  • the axis of rotation of the driving device in the second position, can be closer to the axis of rotation of the date wheel than in the first position.
  • the different relative positions can also be realized differently, for example by different positions perpendicular to the plane.
  • the date wheel has means to position the driver in each position with the driver in a position-dependent manner Way to interact.
  • a change in the angle by which the date wheel rotates per interaction with the driving device can be realized, for example, in that the overlap between the path on which the teeth of the date wheel move and the path of the driver increases accordingly.
  • the rotation of the date wheel is realized, for example, in that the driver hooks with the teeth of the date wheel and pulls it with it before the driver and date wheel decouple due to their different paths. If the axis of rotation of the driver in the second position is closer to the axis of rotation of the date device, the latter attacks and is in engagement with the date wheel over a longer distance than in the first position. In order to compensate for the unequal distances, the driver can be radially resilient.
  • the driver is designed as a driver head or driver pin. This can move on a circular path around its axis of rotation.
  • the driver and the axis of rotation are preferably connected such that the driver is spring-mounted radially to its path.
  • this connection is designed, for example, in such a way that the driver is rigidly connected directly or indirectly tangentially to the track with the drive wheel. This can be achieved, for example, by the driver being held on a resilient arm running approximately in the circumferential direction.
  • the connection between the driver and its axis of rotation can be configured in a spiral.
  • the driver device can also have optional stops, which define a maximum radial and / or tangential deflection of the driver. These can be designed in such a way that they define different positions which the driver can assume. Alternatively or in addition, they can also protect against excessive mechanical action, which could result in damage to the driving device.
  • the axis of rotation of the driving device is identical to that of the drive wheel driving the driving device.
  • the axis of the drive wheel is not fixed, for example, but can be moved between different positions - in particular according to the positions of the driving device.
  • the driver device can be designed such that the driver interacts with the date wheel once per complete revolution of the drive wheel.
  • the driver device can be fixedly connected to the drive wheel, for example by the rotational axes of the drive wheel and driver device being coupled in a rotationally fixed manner.
  • the driver can directly, i.e. without any intervening elements, contact the date wheel.
  • the shape of the teeth of the date wheel and the shape of the driver are coordinated with one another in such a way that they engage in one another with a precise fit. Furthermore, these can be designed such that small angular position errors that occur are automatically corrected. The fault tolerance is further increased by a radially resilient, tangentially rigid mounting of the driver.
  • An embodiment for realizing at least two different positions of the driving device relative to the date wheel additionally has a coupling rocker on which the axis of rotation of the driving device sits.
  • the axis of rotation of the driver device does not coincide with that of the coupling rocker.
  • the at least two positions of the driving device are given by at least two states of the coupling rocker, which differ in the orientation of the coupling rocker.
  • the coupling rocker can have a spring leaf and one or more coupling parts, for example each in the form of a coupling pin, a roller, a stop surface, etc.
  • the spring leaf presses the coupling part (s) in a certain direction against one or more components of the device or the watch. This makes it possible for the state of the coupling rocker to be dependent on the position, orientation and / or on the state of other components.
  • the date wheel or a separate element coupled to it can have a track, for example above or below the toothing, which has a recess in the angular position of the date wheel that identifies the 30th day of the month. If the one coupling part - for example a coupling part designed as a roller - is pressed into the recess, the coupling rocker changes to the second position.
  • the spring leaf also presses a second coupling part present on the coupling rocker - for example a pin against the monthly cam and at the same time the first coupling part against the running track.
  • the first coupling section e.g. roller
  • the second coupling section e.g. pen
  • the coupling rocker it becomes possible for the coupling rocker to switch to a second state, in which the driving device is in the second position, if the first coupling section identifies the 30th day of the month and at the same time the second coupling section identifies a month with only 30 days. This can be done in such a way that in a month with 30 or fewer days, the second coupling section does not lie on the monthly cam disc and therefore does not prevent the second coupling section from running into the recess in the track.
  • a monthly cam disc of the type mentioned can be arranged above or below the monthly wheel, the axis of rotation of the monthly cam disc being identical to that of the monthly wheel and connected to it in a rotationally fixed manner.
  • Monthly cam and monthly wheel can also be made from one piece.
  • the axis of rotation of a gearwheel which interacts with the clockwork on the one hand and with the drive wheel on the other hand, coincides with the axis of rotation of the coupling rocker. This ensures that this gear remains connected to both the drive wheel and the movement regardless of the position assumed by the coupling rocker or the driving device.
  • angular positions for the date wheel 31 which are defined by 31 equidistantly spaced teeth.
  • the driver device rotates the date wheel per day and interaction around a tooth in a first position relative to the date wheel. If the driver device is in a second position relative to the date wheel, two teeth are propelled during an interaction. In particular, in the second position, the driver device will be closer to the date wheel and the driver will engage a tooth that is further forward in relation to the direction of rotation.
  • the date wheel can also have n ⁇ 31 teeth, where n is an integer.
  • the driving device in the first position rotates the date wheel by 360 / (31 ⁇ n ) degrees and by 2 ⁇ 360 / (31 ⁇ n ) degrees if the driving device is in a second Position.
  • Embodiments are also conceivable in which the driver device rotates several times per day about its own axis or in which the driver device has at least two drivers.
  • the above in particular the doubling of the angle by which the date wheel rotates per interaction, is implemented analogously.
  • the date wheel interacts directly, i.e. without intermediate gears, with the monthly wheel.
  • the monthly wheel and the date wheel have means which enable the monthly wheel to be rotated by the date wheel.
  • the date wheel can have a monthly wheel driving pin, which is arranged such that by itself or in combination with other monthly wheel driving pins, after a month has passed, the monthly wheel has turned to the angular position characteristic of the beginning of the month.
  • the monthly bicycle driving pin can in particular engage directly in the toothing of the monthly bicycle.
  • the monthly wheel 12 can assume defined angular positions, which are defined, for example, by 12 equidistantly spaced teeth. If the date wheel also rotates about its own axis once a month, an interaction between the date wheel and the monthly wheel on the last day of each month is sufficient for the monthly wheel to take the correct angular position for the beginning of the month.
  • the device has means which enable the user to visually read, preferably the complete date, consisting of the current day of the month, the day of the week and the current month, or at least the current day of the month, on the dial of the watch.
  • the date wheel 31 and the monthly wheel 12 can assume defined angular positions, this can be done by means of visualization which are coupled directly to the corresponding gear wheel.
  • a corresponding day wheel which can assume seven defined angular positions and interacts once a day with the drive wheel or date wheel, can be implemented in a manner known per se.
  • the device can have lever springs which engage with the various gear wheels, in particular with the date wheel and / or the monthly wheel, when these assume a predetermined, defined angular position.
  • the accuracy of the angular position taken up by the various gears can be increased and, at the same time, they can be locked.
  • the latter increases the reliability of the watch against external disturbances, for example due to shocks.
  • the date display device has a device with which the date can be easily moved back and forth by the user.
  • This is realized in that the axis of rotation of the driving device relative to the date wheel can assume a further position, hereinafter referred to as "third", in which the driving device does not interact with the date wheel. Switching to this The third position is initiated by the user by actuating (for example pulling out) a crown attached to the outside of the watch case. As soon as the driver device is in this third position, the date can be set via the crown attached to the housing, for example by rotating the crown. It is possible to move the date back and forth.
  • Embodiments can be based on the coupling rocker described above, the crown attached to the outside of the housing and a gearwheel which is coupled to the crown and begins to interact directly or indirectly with the date wheel as soon as the switching to the third position of the driving device has been initiated via the crown ,
  • the coupling between this gear and the crown is designed so that the date is simple, e.g. by turning the crown.
  • the coupling rocker has at least one decoupling section, for example in the form of a decoupling pin. This serves to translate the position of the crown relative to the housing of the watch into an alignment of the coupling rocker. For example. pulling out the crown is implemented via the decoupling section in such a way that the axis of rotation of the driving device assumes the third position. In this third position, the path of the driver does not overlap with that of the teeth of the date wheel. Consequently, the date wheel, monthly wheel and all other elements of the device, which lead to a date indicated on the dial, are decoupled from the drive wheel and thus from the clockwork itself.
  • decoupling section for example in the form of a decoupling pin.
  • the device can furthermore have a decoupling rocker with at least two defined states.
  • the decoupling rocker which in turn has a spring leaf, an axis of rotation and elements can have, with which different states of the decoupling rocker can be defined and which enable switching between the different states.
  • the decoupling rocker interacts directly or indirectly with the crown and the coupling rocker, or the decoupling part, and ensures that a change in the relative position of the crown attached outside the housing leads to a corresponding change in the alignment of the coupling rocker and thus the position of the axis of rotation of the driving device leads.
  • the gearwheel which can be switched on and then interacts with the crown and the date wheel, can be arranged on such a decoupling rocker but not on its axis of rotation.
  • the entraining device can assume other positions in addition to the discussed first, second and possibly third position.
  • the embodiment just described for positioning the driver device is in fact a mechanical implementation of the principle of classic AND logic. This is the case because each button queries information relevant to the date and, via its rigid connection to the coupling rocker, allows the rocker to switch if the queried date state arrives. However, the rocker switches to a different position only if all queries of the date status relevant for this position deliver a corresponding result. Based on this, extensions of the annual calendar according to the invention, for example in the direction of a perpetual calendar, are conceivable.
  • a mechanical watch is also part of the subject of the invention.
  • a device also has a clockwork and a time display with at least two hands and a dial, all of which can be designed in a manner known per se.

These segments are arranged in such a way that they are clearly related to the positions of the months given by the gear wheels of the monthly wheel 5, in that the monthly cam 6 is connected to the monthly wheel 5 in a rotationally fixed manner. Furthermore, the segments differ in their radii in that they have one of two possible radii.

In this position, the deflection element 10 and the decoupling rocker 9 assume an alignment, which leads to the fact that a decoupling pin 7.5 attached to the underside of a foot part 7.7 of the coupling rocker 7 rests on the coupling surface 9.5 (see also Figures 7 and 3.c ).
  • Figure 3c shows the mechanism which causes the control over the date display to change from the clockwork to the setting device 13.
  • the arrows shown denote directions of movements which can be carried out by the corresponding elements during steps i to vi.
  • Pulling the setting device 13 (step i) out of the housing 14 in the radial direction up to a stop or locking point (not shown) leads to the deflecting element 10 pushing the coupling pin 9.3 towards the center of the watch (step ii) and that end 9.1 of the decoupling rocker, which is located towards the coupling rocker, rotates radially outward (step iii).
  • the decoupling pin 7.5 changes from the coupling surface 9.5 to the decoupling surface 9.6, which leads to the fact that the axis of rotation 8.3 located on the coupling rocker 7 of the driving head 8.1 from the date wheel 4 so far (step iv) that the path on which the driving head moves and the circle on which the 31 teeth of the date wheel are arranged no longer overlap.
  • the date display is decoupled from the drive wheel and thus from the clockwork. This occurs simultaneously with the decoupling of the date display and drive wheel Fig. 2 shown setting gear 11 in contact with the display ring gear 1 and with the thread of the adjusting device 13. This makes it possible to turn the date by rotating the adjusting device (step v) both forward and backward (step vi).
