Le mécanisme d'entraînement d'un élément mobile selon la forme d'exécution illustrée est un mécanisme d'affichage qui comporte une platine 1 présentant un arbre central 2 constituant un centre de rotation.

De ce qui précède, on constate que ce mécanisme d'affichage comporte trois entrées, le premier organe moteur engrenant avec le premier organe conducteur 13, le second organe moteur 20 engrenant avec le second organe conducteur 18 et le troisième organe moteur 26 engrenant avec le troisième organe conducteur 19.From the above, it can be seen that this display mechanism comprises three inputs, the first motor unit meshing with the first
Dans l'exemple illustré et décrit plus haut, le deuxième organe moteur 20 et le troisième organe moteur 26 sont solidaires et constitués par deux pignons ayant un nombre de dents différents et induisant des vitesses de rotation différentes entre le second organe conducteur 18 et le troisième organe conducteur 19.In the example illustrated and described above, the
Dans des variantes, ces deux organes moteur 20 et 26 pourraient être indépendants l'un de l'autre.In variants, these two
Dans une application particulière horlogère du mécanisme d'affichage, la fente continue 5 formant la trajectoire conduisant l'axe 8 de l'élément d'affichage 7 peut être circulaire, centrée sur le centre de rotation 2 du mécanisme d'affichage. Le premier organe moteur entraîne le premier organe conducteur 13 à raison d'un tour par heure de sorte que le disque 7.1 et l'aiguille 7.2 de l'organe mobile d'affichage 7 fassent un tour en une heure et permettent d'afficher les minutes. Dans une telle application, le second organe moteur 20 entraîne le second organe conducteur 18 à raison d'une révolution en douze heures de sorte que le disque 7.1 de l'organe mobile d'affichage indique, suivant sa position le long de la fente continue 5, les heures qui peuvent être lues à l'aide des index 6 du cadran.In a particular clock application of the display mechanism, the
Le troisième organe moteur 26 entraîne le troisième organe conducteur 19 à une vitesse déterminée de façon que le mouvement de rotation de l'organe mobile d'affichage 7 sur lui-même induit par la rotation du second organe conducteur 18 soit compensé par le second train d'engrenages différentie 15.The
Dans une autre application du mécanisme d'affichage, sidérale, la fente continue 5 déterminant la trajectoire de l'élément d'affichage peut être elliptique et représenter l'orbite de la terre autour du soleil matérialisé par le centre 2 du mécanisme. Le disque 7.1 de l'organe mobile d'affichage 7 peut comporter une représentation de la terre. Le premier organe moteur entraîne le premier organe conducteur 13 à raison d'un tour par jour pour faire tourner sur lui-même le disque 7.1 de l'organe mobile d'affichage 7 à raison d'un tour par jour et le second organe moteur 20 entraîne le second organe conducteur 18 à raison d'un tour par an pour faire parcourir l'organe mobile d'affichage 7 le long de sa trajectoire en un an. Le troisième organe moteur 26 entraîne le troisième organe conducteur 19 de manière à compenser la rotation du renvoi 22 sur lui-même, en roulant sur la roue 14, induit par son entraînement en rotation autour de l'arbre central 2.In another application of the sidereal display mechanism, the
Dans une telle forme d'exécution, le premier train d'engrenages différentiel 10 permet de compenser les oscillations sur lui-même de l'organe mobile d'affichage 7 induit par le déplacement angulaire du porte-satellite 12 du premier train d'engrenages différentiel 10 dues au rayon variable de la trajectoire 5 dans laquelle se déplace l'axe d'affichage 8.In such an embodiment, the first
Lorsque les indications affichées par la position de l'organe mobile d'affichage 7 le long de la trajectoire et par sa position angulaire (rotation sur lui-même) sont corrélées, heures et minutes ou position de la terre sur son orbite autour du soleil et orientation de la terre au cours d'une journée, la correction introduite par le troisième organe conducteur 19 est fixe et le second organe moteur 20 ainsi que le troisième organe moteur 26 peuvent être solidarisés et formés par des pignons ayant un nombre de dents différents.When the indications displayed by the position of the
Si par contre les grandeurs affichées respectivement par la position de l'organe mobile d'affichage 7 le long de sa trajectoire 5 et par sa position angulaire autour de son axe 8 ne sont pas corrélées alors le second organe moteur 20 peut être indépendant du troisième organe moteur 26.If, on the other hand, the quantities respectively displayed by the position of the
La forme de la fente continue 5 définissant la trajectoire de l'organe mobile d'affichage 7 peut être quelconque. Cette forme peut être elliptique, ovale, carrée ou rectangulaire, par exemple si la pièce d'horlogerie équipée du mécanisme d'affichage est de forme elliptique, ovale, carrée ou rectangulaire. L'affichage peut suivre ainsi la forme du boîtier et du cadran de la pièce d'horlogerie.The shape of the
Cette fente 5 peut également présenter une forme en étoile ou sinusoïdale et il est possible d'utiliser la variation de l'excentration de l'organe mobile d'affichage 7 par rapport à l'arbre central 2 pour afficher une troisième grandeur indépendante par exemple le quantième ou le jour de la semaine.This
Dans des applications diverses du mécanisme d'affichage le troisième organe conducteur 19 peut être soit supprimé, puisqu'il n'est plus indispensable de corréler la position de l'organe mobile d'affichage 7 le long de sa trajectoire avec sa position angulaire par rapport à son axe d'affichage 8, soit exploité pour piloter un déplacement particulier.In various applications of the display mechanism the third
D'une façon générale, on voit que selon cette forme d'exécution ce mécanisme d'affichage comporte trois entrées. La première entrée, soit le premier organe conducteur 13, détermine la rotation de l'organe mobile d'affichage 7 autour de son axe d'affichage 8. La seconde entrée, soit le second organe conducteur 18, détermine la circulation de l'organe mobile d'affichage 7 le long de sa trajectoire définie par la fente continue 5. Et la troisième entrée, soit le troisième organe conducteur 19, permet de compenser la rotation sur lui-même du renvoi 22 induite par son déplacement en rotation autour de l'arbre central 2.In general, it can be seen that according to this embodiment, this display mechanism comprises three inputs. The first input, the first
De préférence, chacun des trains d'engrenages différentiels 10 et 15 comporte des premier et second planétaires comportant des dentures externes et internes identiques ainsi que des pignons satellites identiques. L'important toutefois est que ces trains d'engrenages différentiels n'introduisent pas de modification de vitesse et d'une façon générale n'interviennent pas cinématiquement dans la construction de l'information affichée.Preferably, each of the
Ce mécanisme d'affichage permet la correction seule de l'orientation autour de son axe 8 de l'organe mobile d'affichage 7 en actionnant le premier organe conducteur 13 après avoir bloqué le second organe conducteur 18.This display mechanism allows the correction of only the orientation around its
Ce mécanisme d'affichage permet également la correction seule de la position de l'organe mobile d'affichage 7 le long de sa trajectoire 5 en actionnant le second organe conducteur 18 après avoir bloqué le premier organe conducteur 13.This display mechanism also enables the position of the
Il faut encore noter qu'avec un déplacement du second organe conducteur 18, le premier organe conducteur 13 étant libre, et en bloquant la roue centrale 14, l'organe mobile d'affichage 7 garde une orientation sur lui-même constante durant son déplacement le long de sa trajectoire 5.It should also be noted that with a displacement of the second
Le réglage de cette orientation sur lui-même de l'organe mobile d'affichage 7 peut être obtenu en faisant tourner la roue centrale 14 après avoir bloqué le second organe conducteur 18.The adjustment of this orientation on itself of the
Un tel mécanisme d'affichage à trois entrées 13, 18, 19 indépendantes permet à l'organe mobile d'affichage 7 :
- de suivre une trajectoire quelconque;
- de s'orienter vers une direction précise après une révolution de la première
entrée 13, moyennant une corrélation entre les entrées 18et 19 ; et/ou - de garder une direction constante durant son déplacement le long de sa trajectoire, pour un état particulier du mécanisme.
- to follow any trajectory;
- to orient towards a precise direction after a revolution of the
first input 13, with a correlation between the 18 and 19; and orinputs - to keep a constant direction during its movement along its trajectory, for a particular state of the mechanism.
Le mécanisme permet de corriger indépendamment l'orientation et la position de l'organe mobile d'affichage 7 sur sa trajectoire.The mechanism makes it possible to independently correct the orientation and the position of the
Les entrées 13, 18 et 19 étant indépendantes, il est donc envisageable qu'elles soient continues, discontinues, uniformes ou non pour exploiter toutes les caractéristiques de ce mécanisme afin de générer des affichages particuliers et spécifiques ou des déplacements particuliers de l'élément mobile.Since the
A la place de l'organe mobile d'affichage 7, le mécanisme peut conduire et gérer le mouvement d'un autre type d'élément mobile. Par exemple, l'élément mobile peut comprendre un élément fonctionnel du mouvement d'horlogerie tel que le mobile d'échappement.In place of the
Selon la forme d'exécution décrite ci-dessus, la trajectoire de l'organe mobile d'affichage 7 est définie par la fente continue 5 qui peut présenter une forme quelconque, circulaire, polygonale, ovale, elliptique, sinusoïdale, en dents de scie ou autre.According to the embodiment described above, the trajectory of the
Dans une autre forme d'exécution, le mécanisme peut aussi être utilisé en laissant libre la trajectoire de l'élément mobile 7, sous l'effet de l'action de la pesanteur et/ou des mouvements du porteur. Selon cette forme d'exécution, l'équilibrage des différents équipages mobiles n'est plus nécessaire.In another embodiment, the mechanism can also be used by leaving free the path of the
Selon une première variante de cette forme d'exécution, l'élément mobile 7 a un degré de liberté en rotation autour de l'axe central 2 aux grés des effets dynamiques. Le second organe conducteur 18 peut suivre une rotation libre autour de l'axe central 2. Cette variante est particulièrement intéressante dans le cadre où l'élément mobile 7 comprend un mobile d'échappement, l'ancre et l'oscillateur étant supportés sur le second organe conducteur 18. Dans ce cas, la fente 5 est circulaire ou supprimée, et le troisième organe conducteur 19 est piloté par le second organe conducteur 18 par l'intermédiaire des pignons 20 et 26. Dans ce cas, le premier train différentiel 10 ne sert plus de rôle fonctionnel et peut être supprimé.According to a first variant of this embodiment, the
Selon une seconde variante de cette forme d'exécution, un élément mobile 7 a deux degrés de liberté en rotation, l'un autour de l'axe central 2 et l'autre autour de l'axe 10.2 du premier train d'engrenages différentiel 10, aux grés des effets dynamiques. Encore dans cette variante, uniquement le premier organe conducteur 13 est actionné pour animer l'élément mobile 7 à la vitesse souhaitée. Dans ce cas, le second train d'engrenages différentiel 15, le troisième organe conducteur 19 et les pignons 20 et 26 peuvent être supprimés, et les éléments 13, 14 seraient également modifiés ou supprimés pour que la roue 13.1 entraîne le renvoi 22 à la place de la roue 14.According to a second variant of this embodiment, a
Il est donc possible, pour des configurations bien distinctes de ce mécanisme d'entraînement d'élément mobile, d'envisager un déplacement de l'élément mobile 7 soit contraint par une fente 5, soit aléatoire en libérant les deux degrés de liberté autour des axes 10.2 et 2.It is therefore possible, for very distinct configurations of this movable element driving mechanism, to envisage a displacement of the
Dans la forme d'exécution décrite en référence aux figures la liaison cinématique reliant l'axe de l'élément mobile 7 au premier organe conducteur 13 comporte deux trains d'engrenages différentiels le premier train d'engrenages différentiel 10 et le second train d'engrenages différentiel 15.In the embodiment described with reference to the figures the kinematic connection connecting the axis of the
Dans la première variante du mécanisme d'entraînement cette liaison cinématique reliant l'axe de l'élément mobile 7 au premier organe conducteur 13 ne comporte que le second train d'engrenages différentiel 15.In the first variant of the drive mechanism this kinematic connection connecting the axis of the
Dans la seconde variante du mécanisme d'entraînement la liaison cinématique reliant l'élément mobile 7 au premier organe conducteur 13 ne comporte que le premier train d'engrenages différentiel 10.In the second variant of the drive mechanism the kinematic link connecting the
D'une façon générale, le mécanisme d'entraînement d'un élément mobile 7 porté par un axe d'affichage 8 et conduit autour d'un axe central 2 par un second organe conducteur 18 coaxial audit axe central 2 et comportant une fente radiale 25 dans laquelle l'axe d'affichage 8 est monté coulissant se distingue en ce que :
l'axe d'affichage 8 est entraîné en rotation sur lui-même par une liaison cinématique différentielle reliantcet axe d'affichage 8 à un premier organe conducteur 13 coaxial à l'axe central 2 ;l'axe d'affichage 8 est pivoté dansun support 12 lui-même pivoté sur un premier axe 10.2 portépar un bras 11 pivoté sur l'axe central 2 ;l'axe d'affichage 8, l'axe central 2 et le premier axe 10.2 sont parallèles mais non confondus.
- the
display axis 8 is rotated on itself by a differential kinematic connection connecting thisdisplay axis 8 to a firstconductive member 13 coaxial with thecentral axis 2; - the
display axis 8 is pivoted in asupport 12 itself pivoted on a first axis 10.2 carried by anarm 11 pivoted on thecentral axis 2; - the
display axis 8, thecentral axis 2 and the first axis 10.2 are parallel but not coincidental.
Le premier organe conducteur 13 est entraîné par un premier organe moteur tandis que le second organe conducteur 18 peut être soit libre soit entraîné par un second organe moteur.The first
