Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for assembling a crystal to a watch case with a predetermined relative angular positioning.
- a timepiece comprising means for positioning a crystal on a box, as well as a crystal and a box intended to equip such a part.
- the invention relates to the assembly and positioning of a plastic lens on a watch case made of a material of the same type, the lens being heat-welded to the case by a technique such as welding with ultrasound.
- assembly systems are already known allowing predetermined angular positioning of a lens on a box as well as positioning means for this assembly.
- the present invention therefore aims to provide a method for assembling a crystal on a watch case and a timepiece provided with means for positioning this crystal on the box, as well as a crystal and a box. intended to equip such a part free from the aforementioned defects.
- the subject of the invention is, on the one hand, a lens characterized in that it comprises a positioning notch constituted by a V-shaped groove which extends radially and which is formed on an edge of said lens, and on the other hand, a box comprising a middle part and a bottom, characterized in that it further comprises a positioning protuberance formed on its middle part, this protuberance having at least partly the shape of an isosceles triangle having an angle at the top about 80 °.
- the timepiece according to the invention comprises a box 1 comprising a middle part 2 and a bezel 4 produced in this example in one and the same part and forming a monobloc assembly.
- This timepiece further comprises a crystal 6 which is mounted on the box 1.
- the crystal 6 and the box 1 are produced in this example from heat-sealable thermoplastic materials.
- the glass 6 is made for example of a transparent acrylic resin (PMMA) commonly designated under the brand "Plexiglas".
- PMMA transparent acrylic resin
- ABS transparent acrylic resin
- the glass 6 has a chamfered peripheral edge 10 which widens outwards and which is intended to engage in a circular groove 12 (FIGS. 1 and 4) formed in the box 1.
- the edge 10 is intended to be heat welded to the box 1, in particular by an ultrasonic technique.
- the glass 6 has a positioning notch 14 formed at least in its upper part by a V-shaped groove which extends radially to the glass 6 and which is formed in the edge 10.
- This notch 14 has at least in its upper part an isosceles triangle shape having an angle at the apex A (FIG. 3) having a value chosen between 85 ° and 95 °. Preferably, the angle A has a value of 90 °.
- the notch 14 is therefore formed in an outermost radial position on the edge 10 and it opens laterally, externally and internally with respect to the glass 6.
- the case 1 has a middle part 2 which is extended by horns 18 allowing the attachment of a bracelet not shown and which has a back 20.
- the box 1 has a circular groove or groove 12 intended to form a welding zone with the edge 10 of the glass 6.
- the box 1 includes a positioning protrusion 22 formed on this box, and in particular on its middle part 2.
- This protuberance 22 which is produced in the groove or groove 12 has at least partially the shape of an isosceles triangle having an angle at the apex B (FIG. 5) of approximately 80 °.
- Figure 6 shows the glass 6 positioned on the box 1 before the welding operation of these two elements one on the other. It is therefore noted in this figure that the protuberance 22 which has at least in its upper part a bevel shape extends towards the glass 6 in a normal manner to the box 1.
- notch 14 flares opposite the box 1.
- the mounting of the glass 6 on the box 1 is carried out by positioning the glass 6 above the box 1, then by introducing the edge 10 into the groove or groove 12.
- the glass 6 is turned in a clockwise or anti-clockwise direction of rotation until the notch 14 comes into coincidence with the protuberance 22 and adjusts thereon.
- the ultrasonic welding operation is then carried out by means of a sonotrode, not shown, as explained in detail in the above-mentioned document EP 0101663.
- FIG. 1 represents the timepiece assembled with the notch 14 and the protrusion 22 forming a fusion zone F. It is therefore understood that in this state, the notch 14 and the protrusion 22 are welded one to the other. other.
- the fusion zone extends annularly over the timepiece since the edge 10 is on all of its periphery heat-welded to the middle part 2, in the groove or groove 12. This fusion obtained by welding the two materials forms means for fixing the glass 6 to the box 1.
- the notch 14 and the protrusion 22 form positioning means which in this timepiece therefore form an integral part of the aforementioned fixing means.
- the assembly method according to the invention is as follows.
- the positioning notch 14 which, for example comes from molding with this glass, is housed directly in the glass 6. More particularly, this notch 14 is formed in the edge 10 of the glass 6 by conforming this notch 14 at least in its upper part in the form of a V which extends in a radial direction relative to the glass and which flares towards a free end E thereof.
- a protuberance 22 is formed directly on the box 1 which, as explained, has a shape corresponding to the notch 14, namely in an isosceles triangle, and which is shaped to be able to engage in this one.
- the notch 14 and the protrusion 22 are given their respective angles A and B of 90 ° and 80 °.
- the ice 6 is brought to the box 1 by coinciding the notch 14 and the protuberance 22 to allow their relative engagement and authorize the fixing of the ice 6 on the box 1.
- heat-welding is carried out by welding the notch 14 and protuberance 22 assembly simultaneously by heat-welding the free edge 10 of the glass 6 on the box 1.
- this method as well as the means of the invention which have just been described have been found, after numerous tests, to ensure perfect angular positioning of the glass on the box, without any of these components being visible from the outside of the finished part, for example from the top of the glass.
- this invention is simple and inexpensive, since the notch 14 and the protuberance 22 can be produced without additional manufacturing operation, but only during molding, for example during the operations of injecting ice and ice respectively. box.
- the glass provided with its notch 14 can be adapted to boxes without protuberance, which allows better adaptability and excellent flexibility of assembly stations in manufacturing.
