  • the cage In a classic tourbillon, the cage generally functions as a second mobile. It has a second gear and is driven via this second gear by a middle wheel.
  • the cage carries a classic escapement formed by an escapement mobile and an anchor, in particular a Swiss anchor. The force is transmitted to the escapement mobile via its pinion which meshes, like a satellite, with a fixed seconds wheel integral with the plate.

  • the escape wheel has a plurality of teeth which cooperate with two vanes carried by the anchor.
  • Each pallet has at its free end an inclined plane.
  • To generate a maintenance pulse for the sprung balance one of the teeth of the escape wheel comes to rest tangentially against the inclined plane of one of the two pallets, so as to exert a torque on the anchor which is thus driven in rotation by the escape wheel, the latter being driven in rotation by the rotation of the cage via the fixed seconds wheel.
  • the maintenance pulse ends when the pulse nozzle, in each tooth of the escape wheel, is at the bottom of the inclined plane.
  • the escape wheel To generate a maintenance pulse, the escape wheel must be able to undergo a rotation over an angular distance corresponding to the angular distance, relative to the axis of rotation of the escape wheel set, of the inclined plane of the pallet with which it interacts with.
  • the rotation of the escape wheel is intimately linked to that of the tourbillon cage, a kinematic connection being provided between the escape wheel and the tourbillon cage.

Preferably, their movement is oriented radially when they cross the zero position circle 132 (corresponding to the outer circle of the magnetic structure).
  • the two magnets 102 and 103 are alternately coupled to the magnetic structure so that they successively undergo magnetic coupling with one of the magnetized annular sectors 128.
  • the overall magnetic potential energy in l The magnetic escapement 118 is given by the contour lines 134 at the Figure 14 .
  • the magnetic escapement is arranged so as to present, during normal operation of the watch movement, alternately phases of energy accumulation, originating from a conversion of mechanical energy supplied by the barrel into magnetic potential energy in the magnetic escapement, and phases of transfer of energy accumulated in the magnetic escapement to the magnetic resonator.
  • the magnetic escapement defines upward angular ramps 136 for accumulating magnetic potential energy which the magnets 102 and 103 undergo alternately during the continuous rotation of the magnetic structure during successive energy accumulation phases during which they successively and partially climb these ascending angular ramps.
  • the magnetic interaction force between the magnets 102, 103 and the magnetic structure is oriented perpendicular to the level lines 134, these magnets then experience a magnetic force which is essentially perpendicular to the radius it forms with the axis of rotation 28
  • the magnetic structure 126 (and therefore the exhaust mobile) undergoes, during each energy accumulation phase, a couple of magnetic force, relative to its axis of rotation, having a direction opposite to that of 'a driving torque, applied by the barrel via the tourbillon cage to the escapement mobile.
  • the arrangement of the magnets 102, 103 and the magnetized annular sectors 128 is provided so that, in normal operating mode, the intensity of the magnetic force torque is lower than that of the driving torque, so that the cellphone exhaust can continue to rotate and rotate through a certain angle, thus allowing a build-up of potential energy in the magnetic escapement.
  • the magnetic escapement also defines descending radial ramps 138 of magnetic potential energy which the two magnets 102 and 103 descend alternately after having respectively climbed the ascending angular ramps 136.
  • descending a descending radial ramp is oriented perpendicular to the level lines 134, it then undergoes, during energy transfer phases, mainly a radial magnetic force, relative to the axis of rotation 28, during each alternation of the oscillation movement of the mechanical resonator and in the direction of this oscillation movement during this alternation, so that the magnetic escapement then converts into mechanical energy the magnetic potential energy accumulated in the preceding energy accumulation phase to be able to maintain the oscillation of the mechanical resonator.
  • the decrease in magnetic potential energy in the magnetic escapement therefore results mainly from a work of the radial magnetic force exerted alternately on each of the two magnetic elements, this work of the radial magnetic force being transmitted directly to the mechanical resonator, so that this mechanical resonator receives a pulse of mechanical energy in each alternation of its oscillation movement.
  • the descending radial ramps 138 extend over a certain angular distance so that the continuous movement of the escape wheel has no impact on the particular characteristics sought within the framework of the present invention.
  • the important thing is that the main radial force which is exerted alternately on each of the two magnets fixed to the balance hardly depends on any rotation of the escapement mobile. Indeed, we observe at the Figure 14 that the arrangement of the magnetic structure makes it possible to generate the energy pulses for the balance without rotation of the escapement mobile. If the latter stopped at the end of the energy accumulation phase, then the balance would nevertheless receive in the form of a pulse the same quantity of energy as that which it receives by undergoing during the energy transfer phases a some rotational movement.
  • a rocket (similar to the rocket 12 shown in the context of the first embodiment) incorporated into the watch movement makes it possible to equalize the torque supplied by the barrel to the tourbillon cage, so that the escapement mobile is subjected to a constant torque during normal operation of the watch movement.
  • a rocket makes it possible to obtain a stationary operating phase over the entire useful operating range of the watch movement, with the amplitude of oscillation of the balance which remains constant and sustain pulses. which provide the balance with the same amount of mechanical energy. All the benefit provided by a rocket for equalizing the torque of force in a conventional mechanical watch movement is brought to the timepiece according to this third embodiment.
