Abstract

Mécanisme de synchronisation (1) de la vitesse de rotation d'un rouage (2) soumis à un couple dans un mouvement horloger (10).Mechanism for synchronizing (1) the rotational speed of a gear train (2) subjected to torque in a watch movement (10).

Ce mécanisme (1) comporte un résonateur annulaire (6) comportant un anneau (7) disposé autour d'un axe (A), lequel anneau (7) est déformable de façon périodique sous l'action induite par le mouvement d'un entraîneur (8), que comporte ledit mécanisme (1), et lequel entraîneur (8) est entraîné, directement ou indirectement, par ledit couple.

Figure imgaf001
This mechanism (1) comprises an annular resonator (6) comprising a ring (7) disposed around an axis (A), which ring (7) is periodically deformable under the action induced by the movement of a trainer (8), which comprises said mechanism (1), and which driver (8) is driven, directly or indirectly, by said pair.
