Definitions

  • the invention relates to a snap ring spring for a rotating bezel.
  • the invention also relates to a rotating bezel system comprising the spring ring.
  • the invention also relates to a watch case comprising a ceramic middle part and the rotating bezel system rotatably mounted on the middle part.
  • the invention further relates to a watch comprising the watch case.
  • Known rotating bezel systems are provided with a spring ring intended to cooperate with the rotating bezel to allow the latter to snap into place. Such a snap-in then allows precise rotation of the rotating bezel on a watch case middle part, for example.
  • the middle part is ceramic
  • the latter generally has a cylindrical outer periphery provided with an annular groove intended to receive the spring ring.
  • radii caused by the machining of the middle part are present in the groove back.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide a spring ring for engaging a rotating bezel making it possible to guarantee correct positioning of the spring ring in the groove back of a ceramic watch case middle part, and to thus reducing the mechanical wear of the parts and therefore increasing the reliability and durability of the assembly.
  • the invention relates to a spring snap ring of a rotating bezel which comprises the features mentioned in independent claim 1.
  • the spring ring according to the invention also has the advantage of being easy to manufacture and to install within a watch case middle part, of being interchangeable with various currently existing parts, of being easily replaceable in after-sales service, as well as to improve the sensitive quality of the product as well as the user experience, in particular with regard to the sensation of precision of rotation of the rotating bezel.
  • the spring ring comprises three inclined lugs distributed over its inner periphery over 360 °, the three inclined lugs being spaced two by two by 120 °.
  • the spring ring further comprises at least one notching tongue intended to cooperate with a rotating bezel for the snapping of said bezel onto the spring ring.
  • the invention also relates to a rotating bezel system comprising the spring ring described above, and which comprises the features mentioned in dependent claim 7.
  • the rotating bezel is typically an annular rotating bezel, preferably a bezel. unidirectional.
  • the invention also relates to a watch case comprising a ceramic middle part and the rotating bezel system described above, and which comprises the characteristics mentioned in dependent claim 8.
  • the invention also relates to a watch comprising the watch case described above, and which comprises the characteristics mentioned in dependent claim 9.
  • the figure 1 shows a watch 1 provided with a watch case 2.
  • the watch case 2 typically comprises a ceramic middle part 4.
  • the watch case 2 also comprises a rotating bezel system 6 as well as a watch movement, the watch movement n 'not being shown in the figures for reasons of clarity.
  • the rotating bezel system 6 is rotatably mounted on the middle part 4.
  • the rotating bezel system 6 is formed from an independent module.
  • the caseband 4 is annular in shape.
  • the middle part 4 comprises a cylindrical outer surface 8 which delimits a part 10 of the middle part 4 called the chimney.
  • the middle part 4 is also provided, on its cylindrical outer periphery, with an annular groove 12.
  • the annular groove 12 is intended to receive the spring ring 14 according to the invention, as will be described below.
  • the rotating bezel system 6 comprises a rotating bezel and a spring ring 14 for engaging the rotating bezel.
  • the rotating bezel which is typically an annular rotating bezel, of preferably a unidirectional bezel, is not visible in the figures for reasons of clarity.
  • the rotating bezel is held by a flanged spring which moves apart during the passage of the bezel over the chimney of the middle part and then fits into the middle groove, and cooperates with the spring ring 14 by snap-fastening.
  • the spring ring 14 is received in the annular groove 12 and extends in a plane P1 illustrated on figure 2 , which plane P1 is substantially horizontal when the spring ring 14 is disposed in the groove 12.
  • the spring ring 14 comprises on its inner periphery at least one tab 16 inclined relative to the plane P1.
  • the spring ring 14 comprises three inclined tabs 16 distributed over its inner periphery over 360 ° and spaced two by two by 120 °.
  • the spring ring 14 further comprises at least one notching tongue 18 intended to cooperate with the rotating bezel for the snapping of the bezel onto the spring ring 14.
  • the spring ring 14 comprises three notching tabs 18 distributed over 360 ° and spaced two by two by 120 °.
  • the spring ring 14 is formed from a single piece of material.
  • the spring ring 14 is for example made of a material such as Phynox.
  • each inclined tab 16 cooperates with the cylindrical outer surface 8 of the middle part 4, so as to index the position of the spring ring 14 relative to the middle part 4.
  • the spring ring 14 is always correctly positioned at flat in the annular groove 12.
  • the spring ring 14 never comes into contact with the spoke 19 present at the bottom of the groove 12, which makes it possible to avoid problems of wear and of torque variation.
  • this spoke 19 has a width substantially equal to 0.2 mm.
  • each tab 16 extends towards the center 20 of the spring ring 14, and is inclined upwards with respect to the plane P1.
  • each tab 16 is inclined relative to the plane P1 by an angle substantially equal to 25 °.
  • each notching tab 18 is configured to cooperate either with the rotating bezel itself, or with a part attached to the bezel, so as to snap the bezel onto the spring ring 14.
  • each notching tongue 18 comprises for example a first portion 18a and a second portion 18b both extending upwardly relative to the plane P1.
  • the first portion 18a has for example an arcuate shape the curvature of which tends to move it away from the plane P1, the center of the osculating circle taken at any point of the first portion 18a being located opposite the plane P1 with respect to the tongue.
  • the second portion 18b is for example a flat portion, inclined relative to the plane P1.
  • each notching tongue 18 is inclined relative to the plane P1 by an angle substantially equal to 15 °.
  • each notching tongue 18 is formed via a preliminary cutout made in the thickness of the spring ring 14. The shape of the cutout is thus complementary to the shape of the corresponding tongue 18.
