Definitions

  • the walking of a timepiece is not the same when it is in a vertical position or in a horizontal position.
  • a pocket watch can be adjusted relatively easily because it is usually placed upright. The adjustment made in this position can be done easily, and it will be possible to stay at a variation of 0 to 1 second per day.
  • the pocket watch is placed in a horizontal position, ie placed on a table, for example, it will be noted that the variation in operation will then be about 10 seconds per day.
  • a wristwatch is usually worn in a horizontal position. However, depending on the wearer, the average position of the watch can vary considerably. If therefore it is set in a horizontal position, it may, in some cases case, show a relatively large variation of market.
  • GB 2027232 discloses a bi-axial vortex.
  • the object of the present invention is to eliminate this disadvantage and to propose to equip a timepiece with a bi-axial vortex according to claim 1.
  • the biaxial tourbillon for timepieces comprises a first cage containing the balance and the escape pinion, the cage rotating about one axis, and being housed inside a second cage rotatably mounted in housing, the second cage performing its rotation along another axis perpendicular to the axis of the first cage.
  • the cage containing the balance has a pinion second provided with a toothing, which engrains with a fixed gear fixed to the turntable of the timepiece.
  • the pinion seconds and the axis of the balance may have a common axis corresponding to the axis of rotation of the cage.
  • the vortex has a second cage engrainée by the pinion secured to the center wheel along an axis perpendicular to the axis of the first cage.
  • the operation of the bi-axial vortex can be combined with a downshifting display mechanism indicating on a linear scale adjacent to the vortex the second or the time in minutes required for complete tourbillon rotation.
  • the drawing represents, by way of example, a mode of execution of a bi-axial vortex, object of the invention.
  • the biaxial vortex described with reference to Figures 1 to 3 of the drawing comprises a conventional vortex cage A placed in another cage B which itself rotates on two pivots 1 and 2.
  • the tourbillon cage A rotates in rotation on the C axis inside the cage B.
  • cage A rotates freely in cage B.
  • the second gear 3 of the tourbillon cage A is extended outside the cage. I1 engraine with the wheel of average 4 ( Figure 2) which is secured to the plate 5, so fixed. The rotation of the outer cage B is therefore performed by the pinion of seconds 3 which rotates said cage on the pivots 1 and 2.
  • FIG 3 there is shown the cage and its drive mechanism, and a part of the adjusting system, in a section through the common axis A1 of the cage and the balance.
  • the regulating system of the wristwatch comprising the balance and the escape pinion 11, is housed in a cage A, whose upper deck has a pinion of seconds 13 itself provided with a toothing 14 which engrains with the wheel fixed 4.
  • This cage A is rotatably fixed on a plate 15 which is secured to the second wheel 16 which engrains with the pinion 11.
  • the cage B is rotatably mounted between two ice-stones 17 and 18 arranged in the housings provided for this purpose.
  • the axis of rotation of the pinion 20 is the axis A2.
  • the vortex along an axis is to the pocket watch what the vortex of Figures 1 to 3 is to the wristwatch. That is, if the first smooth adjustment errors in the vertical position, the second is intended to smooth the adjustment errors of the vertical and horizontal positions.
  • the biaxial tourbillon which has just been described will be placed under the dial, and its operation along the two axes A1 and A2 may be examined by the user.
  • the tourbillon rotates completely in 8 minutes, and the examination of its operation is interesting and pleasant.
  • the bi-axial tourbillon can be combined with a display of the second or / and a display corresponding to the complete rotation time on a linear scale ranging from 1 to 8 minutes.
  • the displays mentioned above will advantageously be effected by means of a retrograde display mechanism.
