- the function arm 51 is to ensure that the teeth 55 of the three weights 4 fall synchronously into their toothed spiral notches 44, so that there is no offset.
- the torque exerted by the blades via these notches is higher than the friction torque at the end of the fall of the weights in the notches.
- the invention also relates to a 300 mechanical clockwork movement, such as visible in particular on the figure 20 , comprising at least one clock oscillator mechanism 100 comprising such a rocker 10, and an actuator 20 arranged to control the inertia adjustment of the balance 10 by changing the position of at least some of the weights 4 that includes the This operating member 20 is movable between an engaged position and at least one disengaged position.
- the operating member 20 comprises a stop means 160 arranged to immobilize directly or indirectly the serge 12 in the engaged position, and at least one control means 80, in particular toothed, arranged for, in the position engaged, rotate the outer ring 2, including a toothing 8 that includes the outer ring 2, to change the position of the weights 4 with which cooperates the outer ring 2.
- the invention also concerns, as can be seen in particular on the figure 20 , a watch 1000 comprising such a movement 300, a control member constituted by a pusher or a ring gear 110 arranged to control through a sliding pinion 111 the movement of a timer 112.
- This timer 112 comprises a wheel 115, which is arranged to drive at least one such control means 80 toothed in the engaged position of the actuating member 20.
- the watch 1000 according to the invention comprises a clutch ring 102 movable rotating to control the clutch or disengagement of the actuator 20, and this clutch ring 102 is preferably hidden from the user.
- Such an arrangement allows the transformation of an existing watch, having, pre-existing, a control member such as crown, push, bezel, bolt or the like, a sliding pinion, and a timer.
- the invention is described here in the particular, non-limiting case of a rocker 10 having a monobloc top plate 30, the outer ring 2 of which has a toothing 8.
- this upper monobloc board 30 As can be seen in particular on the figure 16 by rotation of this upper monobloc board 30 relative to the seam 12 of the balance 10, or, as here to the lower board 14 when the balance 10 has one, and which is synchronous with the seam 12, this serge 12 being in advance locked in rotation, and for any angular position of the serge 12, the inertia of the upper monobloc board 30, and therefore of the balance 10, changes.
- the rotation of the outer ring 2, in particular of this one-piece upper board 30 is carried out by the control means 80 of the operating member 20, in particular in the form of a driving wheel 81 adjacent the balance 10, carried by a 150 bistable lever that comprises the stop means 160, in the non-limiting embodiment illustrated by the figures.
- the lever 150 is engaged / disengaged laterally by the mechanical action of a rotary ring 102 peripheral to the watch movement 300 which includes the oscillator 100, which allows access to the oscillator 100 wherever it is located on the periphery.
- the figure 16 shows an example of a part of this clutch mechanism.
- the clutch ring 102 acts on two slopes 154 and 155 of the lever 150 by a finger 103 that it comprises, to control the tilting of the lever 150, according to its direction of rotation.
- the position drawn in solid lines shows the lever 150 in the locking position of the toothing 15 of the lower board 14, by a comb 151 that includes the lever 150, in an "ON" position: the balance 10 is engaged with the timer and the crown 110 of the watch 1000.
- a jumper lever 156 introduces a bistability on the lever 150.
- the lever 150 comprises a comb 151 to cooperate with the lower toothing 15 of the lower plate 14, it is understood that it can also, when the balance 10 is devoid of bottom plate 14, have a friction surface arranged to cooperate and in particular to come into contact with the outer surface 120 of the serge 12.
- the flexible structure is held by an integrated jumper, such as the inner jumper 42 of the figure 4 , or the outer jumper 29 of the figure 12 .
- This integrated jumper retains the flyweight 4, and exerts a sufficient return torque to also retain the outer ring 2.
- the lower 14 and upper 30 boards are micromachined (techniques from silicon fabrication) and if possible in a single layer (mask process), as shown.
- the lever 150 engaged by the action of the ring 102, approaches laterally of the balance 10 (ON position) and angularly maintains it by means of its comb 151 in engagement with the lower board 14 attached to the balance 10
- the driving wheel 81 then meshes simultaneously with the upper board 30.
- the watch 1000 comprises a control member consisting of a pusher, a bolt, or the like, or, as shown in the figures, in particular on the figure 20 a crown 110, which has the advantage of reversible adjustment in both directions.
- the rotation by the crown 110 conventionally mobile between at least two positions T1 and T3, drives through the sliding pinion 111 the movement of the timer 112, the input wheel 115, the driving wheel 81, and therefore the outer ring 2 of the upper board 30, which can rotate and change the inertia of the balance 10.
- the timer 112 may cause a wheel at the center 113 carrying a needle 114 to display the adjustment made.
- the invention also relates to a watch assembly comprising such a watch 1000, as visible on the Figures 20 and 21 , and a setting tool which is arranged to control the rotation of the clutch ring 102.
- the clutch ring 102 and the adjustment tool 200 in particular constituted by a magnetic key, as illustrated, comprise complementary magnetic zones 101, 201 respectively for the driving in rotation of the clutch ring 102 under the action of the adjusting tool 200 when the complementary magnetic zones 101 and 201 are in cooperation through the watch case 1000.
- the ring 102 is advantageously, in a particular variant, provided with ferromagnetic targets 101: P, Q, R, S, judiciously placed and hidden, so that only an outer key 200 having magnetic pads 201, including neodymium magnets or the like, placed in certain places P ', Q ', R', S ', and facing, can take off if necessary and turn.
- the advantage of a ring 102 only ferromagnetic, and of substantially circular shape, generally of revolution, is its insensitivity to external magnetic fields capable of rotating it, and external ferromagnetic objects in the undesirable case of presence of magnets.
- the figure 20 illustrates an overview of the gait adjustment device by changing the inertia of the balance 10, without opening the watch 1000 and without adding a pusher.
- the clutch ring 102 comprising the ferromagnetic targets 101 is rotated by a magnetic key 200, external tool to the watch, comprising the magnetic pads 201, when it is positioned coaxially with the watch (with their axes coincident).
- the ring 102 may first be attracted axially against the magnets, then a rotation of the key 200 causes a rotation of the ring 102 by reluctant torque on the ferromagnetic targets 101.
- the angular position of these targets being hidden from the user, only the right key can cause the ring to rotate.
- the goal is to have the adjustment done by the SAV, so as not to tarnish the reputation of the brand, in case of attempted unsuccessful adjustment on the part of the wearer.
- the magnetic key 200 thus cooperates with the clutch ring 102, the number and position of the ferromagnetic targets 101 are hidden from the user, to prevent an unsuccessful attempt by the user to adjust.
- the magnetic pads 201 are also hidden at the key 200.
- the process of setting the procedure is as follows. Firstly, the pivoting of the ring 102 by means of the magnetic key 200 causes the lever 150 to tilt towards the balance 10, in order to engage the driving wheel 81 of the lever 150 with the adjusting device of the lever. on-board rotational inertia on the balance 10. It thus goes from the OFF position to the ON position.
- the driving wheel 81 is integral with the idler wheel 115 of the timer 112.
- the crown 110 is at the same time engaged with the minute hand 114 and the inertia adjustment of the balance 10, via the sliding pinion 111 and the return.
