Definitions

the present invention relates to funds for timepieces and more particularly to such funds comprising a pattern or logo on their external face and in which said pattern or logo can be oriented as desired.
the only solution known to date consists of pairing a case back with a watch case determined during machining, so that it is ensured that once completely screwed down, the case back is perfectly aligned with the 12h-6h axis of the watch.
This solution is however only unsatisfactory because there is a risk of problems if the original case back is lost or damaged and it is necessary to replace it with another case which is not sure that once screwed on the middle, it always aligns properly with the vertical axis 12h-6h.
the present invention aims to remedy this drawback as well as others by proposing a system allowing, after screwing a case back onto the middle of a watch case, to regulate in a simple and effective manner the orientation of the back with respect to the watch, so as to guarantee a suitable arrangement of the inscriptions and other decorative patterns which have been transferred to the face of the back of the watch directed towards the wrist side of the wearer of this watch.
the present invention relates to a bottom for a watch case, the bottom comprising a first element arranged to be screwed onto the watch case, and a second element comprising an end face carrying a pattern, the second element being mounted. movable in rotation about an axis passing through the center of the box, characterized in that the second element comprises braking means arranged to keep it relative to the first element in different angular positions around the axis of rotation, the braking means being disposed between the first and second elements.
the present invention provides a device for fixing a watch case back which allows at the same time to completely screw this back on the middle of the watch so as to ensure the water resistance of the latter and to to avoid as much as possible any risk of losing said back, then, although the back is screwed in block, to pivot a movable element of this back relative to the middle part to make up for any misalignment of the inscriptions or patterns applied on the visible face of said back .
the invention also relates to a timepiece comprising a moon phase mechanism according to the invention.
the figure 1 illustrates a bottom 1 for watch case 50 intended to be screwed by a thread on a middle part 51, the latter having an additional thread machined at its base and on its inner periphery.
the base 1 comprises a first element 10 arranged to be screwed onto the watch case 50, and a second element 20 comprising an end face 21 carrying a pattern such as a logo or a mark, the second element 20 being mounted movable in rotation about an axis passing through the center of the watch case.
the first element 10 is intended to be screwed onto the watch case 50 and has for this purpose, on its rear face, that is to say the face facing the inside of the case, an annular shoulder 11 comprising a thread 110 on its outer periphery.
the shoulder 11 is screwed to the base of the watch case 50 which includes an additional thread provided for this purpose.
the first element 10 also comprises, on its front face, that is to say the face oriented towards the outside of the box, a base 12 with a wall inclined 13 towards the outside of the box so that said base 12 has a section in section of substantially trapezoidal shape.
the second element 20 comprises a cavity 22 with an inclined wall 23 complementary to the base 12 in order to be able to clip-on (clip-on) or force-fit, and thus assemble the two elements 10, 20.
the edges of the base 12 and the cavity 22 are chamfered.
the base 12 of the first element 10 comprises recessed portions 13 ′ and an annular groove 13 "formed behind the wall 13 so as to facilitate the deformation of the wall during the force fitting of the second element 20 on the first element.
the diameter of the base 12 and of the cavity 22 are smaller than the diameters of the first and second elements 10, 20.
the second element 20 is mounted so as to be able to rotate on the first element 10 about the axis of rotation C passing through the center of the box 100, the fitting or clipping providing sufficient play to rotate the second element 20.
the first element 10 successively comprises a first annular groove 14 formed in the base 12, an annular groove 15 formed near the periphery of the first element and a second annular groove 16 formed also in the immediate vicinity of the periphery of the first element 10.
the second element 20 has an orifice 24 arranged to receive a pin 25, the pin 25 cooperating with the annular groove 15 formed in the first element 10 so as to guide the second element 20 during its pivoting.
the annular groove 15 is not continuous and has two ends 150 and 151 close to each other each defining a stop.
braking means which act by friction and which are arranged to maintain different orientations angular of the second element 20 relative to the first element 10, and therefore relative to the middle part.
the second element carrying the pattern M can be easily angularly displaced in a desired position against the friction force generated by the braking means and maintained in the desired position.
the second element 20 is thus clamped axially between its rear face and the front face of the first element 10.
the respective dimensions of the second element 20, in particular its thickness, and those of the first element 10 are chosen so that the edge of the second element 20 is flush with the front face of the first element 10 to thereby form a continuous surface.
the braking means comprise at least one elastic annular element 30 which in particular has an elasticity in a direction parallel to the axis of rotation C.
the annular element can be produced by a seal made of compressible material natural or synthetic.
the annular element 30 is disposed between the first and the second element.
the elastic annular element or elements 30 are arranged in the first and second annular grooves 14 and 16 which are formed in the front face of the first element. Those skilled in the art could, without particular difficulty, reverse this arrangement and place the elastic annular elements 30 on the rear face of the second element 20 by forming the grooves 14 and 16 there beforehand.
the annular grooves 14 and 16 are arranged on either side of the annular groove 15, which allows a better distribution of the friction forces generated by the elastic annular elements 30.
the second annular groove 16 has two levels, a first level forming the bottom of the groove arranged to receive an elastic annular element 30, and a second level forming the opening of the groove arranged to receive the edge of the second element 20.
the second level has dimensions greater than the first level of such that the edge of the second element 20 can move in translation in the direction of the axis C.
the desired braking force can be controlled by adapting the compression ratio of the annular element during manufacture.
the manufacturer exerts pressure on the second element 20 in the direction of the watch case so as to compress the elastic annular elements 30. Then, while maintaining the pressure on the second element, the manufacturer rotates the second element relative to the first element 10 so as to orient the back in a desired angular position so that the pattern M is, for example, aligned with the axis 6H-12H of the watch.
the second element 20 comprises a notch 26 capable of receiving a tool for exerting a lever force and thus dislodging the second element.
the timepiece 100 for example of the wristwatch type, which is provided with the back 1 according to the invention is partially represented on the figure 1 .
This timepiece includes in particular a middle part 51 surmounted by a bezel 52 which can be screwed onto the middle part 51 and which serves to hold a crystal 53.
the assembly formed by the bezel 52 and the crystal 53 is sealed by interposition a seal 54.
the middle part 51 also has a hole for the passage of a rod 55 on which is fixed a crown 56.
the wristwatch is of the type with analog display of the hour and for this purpose includes a set of 58 hour and minute hands (only one hand has been shown in the drawing) moving above a dial 57. It goes without saying that the present invention could equally well apply to a watch with a digital time display comprising, for example, a liquid crystal cell .
an O-ring 31 is conventionally inserted into an annular groove 59 formed at the base of the middle part 51 to guarantee the seal between the first element 10 of the base 1 and said middle part 51.
the first and second elements can be made of metals, a metal alloy, ceramic, composite material or even plastic.
