Abstract
Description
La présente invention a pour objet une pièce d'horlogerie, en particulier un dispositif de retour à zéro d'un chronographe.The present invention relates to a timepiece, in particular a device return to zero of a chronograph.
Les chronographes usuellement utilisés possèdent deux poussoirs, l'un pour la fonction START/STOP et l'autre pour la fonction RESET (remise à zéro). Il existe néanmoins une autre famille de chronographe qui utilisent la remise à zéro en vol.The chronographs usually used have two pushers, one for START / STOP function and the other for RESET (reset). It exists however another family of chronographs that use flight reset.
Le principe est basé sur l'appui d'un seul poussoir qui provoque le retour de l'aiguille à midi et, lorsque le poussoir est relâché, l'aiguille est libérée. Cette fonction a été introduite pour les pilotes qui doivent garder un cap pendant un certain temps et changer pour un autre cap selon une information reçue.The principle is based on the support of a single pusher which causes the return of the needle at noon and, when the pusher is released, the needle is released. This function has been introduced for pilots who have to stay on course for a while and change to another course according to information received.
On connaít de tels systèmes appliqués à des chronographes dont l'enclenchement s'obtient par un engrenage en champ, au moyen d'une roue sur champ montée sur la roue de moyenne du rouage de finissage, laquelle par l'intermédiaire d'un renvoi, s'engrène avec la roue du chronographe. Ce système a une précision relative du fait de la pénétration des dentures d'un pas angulaire différent entre elles.We know of such systems applied to chronographs whose engagement is obtained by a field gear, by means of a field wheel mounted on the average wheel of the gear train, which by means of a reference, meshes with the chronograph wheel. This system has relative accuracy due to the fact of the penetration of the teeth of a different angular pitch therebetween.
De plus, lors d'une fonction de retour en vol, le fait de relever obligatoirement la bascule d'embrayage, comportant la roue sur champ et le renvoi, est complexe.In addition, during a return to flight function, the fact that the clutch lever, comprising the wheel on the field and the return, is complex.
Pour réaliser l'entraínement du mécanisme, un autre système est connu utilisant un embrayage par friction. Ce système a l'avantage d'être très précis car indépendant de la pénétration des dentures.To carry out the training of the mechanism, another system is known using a friction clutch. This system has the advantage of being very precise because it is independent penetration of the teeth.
Un tel système ne peut garantir une fiabilité à long terme, du fait des différents sens de rotation engendrés par la position des mobiles comportant les coeurs. Les frictions peuvent provoquer une usure de l'embrayage de la roue et de plus, les coeurs étant disposés sur des roues indirectes, la précision lors du retour à zéro est relative aux jeux d'engrenages. De surcroít, un maintien de la pression sur le marteau, de par les couples antagonistes des rouages, provoque un arrêt de la montre.Such a system cannot guarantee long-term reliability, due to the different senses of rotation generated by the position of the mobiles comprising the hearts. Friction can cause wear of the wheel clutch and more, the hearts being arranged on indirect wheels, the precision when returning to zero is relative to the gear sets. In addition, maintaining the pressure on the hammer, by the antagonistic pairs of cogs, causes the watch to stop.
C'est pourquoi le but de la présente invention est de disposer d'un système d'embrayage à friction qui n'a pas les inconvénients cités ci-dessus. This is why the aim of the present invention is to have a system friction clutch which does not have the drawbacks mentioned above.
Ce but est atteint par un dispositif de remise à zéro en vol comprenant un embrayage à friction, actionné par des moyens de débrayage principaux, un poussoir de commande et un mécanisme de coeurs de remise à zéro. Ce dispositif est caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend des moyens de débrayage secondaires agissant lorsque le poussoir de commande actionne le mécanisme des coeurs.This object is achieved by a flight reset device comprising a clutch friction, actuated by main declutching means, a pusher command and a reset hearts mechanism. This device is characterized in that it comprises secondary declutching means acting when the control button activates the heart mechanism.
Par embrayage à friction, on entend un embrayage à deux disques, maintenus sous pression par un élément élastique. Lors de la fonction de retour en vol, l'embrayage est débrayé laissant alors libre un marteau actionné par la pression sur le poussoir stop, et qui agit sur les coeurs de compteurs montés sur une friction, ledit marteau étant relevé par un ressort.By friction clutch is meant a two-disc clutch, held under pressure by an elastic element. During the return to flight function, the clutch is disengaged leaving free a hammer actuated by pressure on the pusher stop, and which acts on the hearts of counters mounted on a friction, said hammer being lifted by a spring.
La présente invention sera comprise plus en détail grâce aux dessins suivants, pris à titre non limitatifs, dans lesquels:
- la figure 1 représente le mécanisme à l'état embrayé,
- la figure 2 représente le mécanisme à l'état débrayé,
- la figure 3 représente une vue de dessus du mécanisme de débrayage,
- la figure 4 représente une vue de dessus d'une variante de l'invention.
- FIG. 1 represents the mechanism in the engaged state,
- FIG. 2 represents the mechanism in the disengaged state,
- FIG. 3 represents a top view of the declutching mechanism,
- Figure 4 shows a top view of a variant of the invention.
La figure 1 décrit le système à l'état embrayé, figure sur laquelle on distingue un
embrayage 1 à deux disques 2, 3 maintenus en pression sous l'action d'un ressort
12 assurant une plus grande précision de départ de la mesure d'un temps court.
L'embrayage 1 est en prise constante avec le rouage de la montre de manière
connue par une des roues 11 dudit rouage s'engrenant avec le mobile 3. La
séparation des disques 2, 3 de l'embrayage 1 s'obtient par un mécanisme connu
d'une fonction chronographe au moyen d'une fourchette mobile 7 actionnée par une
came 10, ladite fourchette 7 étant maintenue par pression sous l'effet d'un ressort 8.
La fonction retour en vol s'opère par un marteau 4 actionné par la pression du
poussoir STOP et agissant sur les coeurs de compteurs 5, 6 montés sur une friction,
ledit marteau étant relevé par un ressort 15.FIG. 1 describes the system in the engaged state, a figure in which there is a clutch 1 with two discs 2, 3 kept under pressure by the action of a
Selon l'invention, au moment du retour à zéro à la volée, l'embrayage 1 est alors débrayé tel qu'illustré sur les figures 2 et 3. Ceci s'obtient par une navette A comportant un plan incliné B, ladite navette A étant actionnée par une goupille C solidaire du marteau 4. La liaison entre le marteau 4 et la navette A s'effectuant par une ouverture D placée sur la navette A.According to the invention, at the moment of return to zero on the fly, the clutch 1 is then disengaged as illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 3 . This is obtained by a shuttle A comprising an inclined plane B , said shuttle A being actuated by a pin C secured to the hammer 4 . The connection between the hammer 4 and the shuttle A is effected by an opening D placed on the shuttle A.
Lors de la fonction de retour en vol, la pression sur le poussoir de la montre entraíne,
au moyen d'une bascule intermédiaire 9, le marteau 4 qui va actionner les deux
coeurs 5, 6 solidaires des roues portant les aiguilles d'affichage. Les coeurs se
positionnent instantanément sur les plans 20, 30 en appui sur le marteau 4.. La
temporisation de débrayage est synchronisée par la goupille C qui entraíne
simultanément la navette A qui, par son plan incliné B, va lever la fourchette 7,
débrayant ainsi l'embrayage 1. La temporisation est obtenue par la position de la
goupille C qui se trouve légèrement en avance sur l'action des coeurs 5, 6. Dès cette
fonction terminée, un maintien de la pression, par le fait du débrayage, ne provoque
pas l'arrêt de la montre.During the return to flight function, the pressure on the pusher of the watch causes, by means of an intermediate rocker 9 , the hammer 4 which will actuate the two
En relâchant cette pression, le système est ramené en arrière sous l'effet d'un
ressort 15 en liaison avec la goupille C. Le système est ainsi parfaitement
synchronisé et le comptage recommence depuis la position initiale.By releasing this pressure, the system is brought back under the effect of a
Selon une variante de l'invention, la navette A n'est pas solidaire avec le marteau 4.
Sur la figure 4, la navette A est poussée par le marteau 4, et le retour à la position
d'embrayage est assurée par un ressort Z. La navette agit sur la fourchette 7 de
manière tangentielle au moyen de différents plans inclinés.According to a variant of the invention, the shuttle A is not integral with the hammer 4 . In FIG. 4 , the shuttle A is pushed by the hammer 4 , and the return to the clutch position is ensured by a spring Z. The shuttle acts on the
Selon une forme d'exécution, le plan incliné décrit précédemment sur la navette A
est situé sur la fourchette 7. Selon une autre forme de réalisation, la navette de
même que la fourchette comporte des plans inclinés.According to one embodiment, the inclined plane described above on the shuttle A is located on the
Le présente description est nullement limitative au mode d'actionnement des différents éléments, que ce soit de la navette, ou de l'embrayage. Il existe en effet d'autres pièces connues pour actionner de telles pièces mécaniques.The present description is in no way limiting on the mode of actuation of the different elements, whether it be the shuttle or the clutch. There is indeed other parts known to actuate such mechanical parts.
Toutes les pièces équivalentes qui visent le même but que l'invention, à savoir le débrayage d'un embrayage à friction d'un chronographe lors de sa remise à zéro en vol, est compris dans la présente invention.All equivalent parts which have the same aim as the invention, namely the declutching a friction clutch of a chronograph when resetting it to zero vol, is included in the present invention.
