Abstract
Description
MECANISME, NOTAMMENT POUR L'AFFICHAGE DES PHASES DE LA LUNE.MECHANISM, ESPECIALLY FOR THE DISPLAY OF MOON PHASES.
La présente invention concerne les mécanismes permettant notamment l'affichage des phases de la lune, adaptables sur les mouvements d'horlogerie, caractérisée en ce que l'ensemble des pièces constituant le mécanisme de commande et son affichage pivotent sur un axe unique. The present invention relates to mechanisms allowing in particular the display of the phases of the moon, adaptable to clock movements, characterized in that all of the parts constituting the control mechanism and its display pivot on a single axis.
On connaît actuellement un certain nombre de mécanismes permettant d'indiquer les phases de la lune ou des mouvements planétaires, qui utilisent des engrenages réducteurs liés à des systèmes roue étoile et sautoirs. A number of mechanisms are currently known for indicating the phases of the moon or planetary movements, which use reducing gears linked to star wheel and jumper systems.
Ces systèmes présentent l'inconvénient de nécessiter une adaptation du mouvement d'horlogerie relativement compliquée. These systems have the disadvantage of requiring an adaptation of the relatively complicated watch movement.
La présente invention propose un mécanisme utilisant un nombre réduit de pièces qui pivotent sur un axe unique ; cet axe, dans le cas le plus simple, sera celui des aiguilles du mouvement d'horlogerie. The present invention provides a mechanism using a reduced number of parts which pivot on a single axis; this axis, in the simplest case, will be that of the hands of the clock movement.
Dans l'exemple choisi FIG.1, la représentation des phases successives de la lune est réalisée à l'aide d'un disque 1 muni de deux lunes apparaissant successivement dans l'ouverture du cadran 2. Le disque tourne dans le sens des aiguilles d'une montre, et effectue un tour complet en cinquante neuf jours, correspondant à un cycle lunaire de vingt neuf jours et demi. In the example chosen in FIG.1, the representation of the successive phases of the moon is carried out using a disc 1 provided with two moons appearing successively in the opening of the dial 2. The disc rotates clockwise of a watch, and makes a complete revolution in fifty nine days, corresponding to a lunar cycle of twenty nine and a half days.
La FIG.2 montre le fonctionnement de l'ensemble. FIG.2 shows the operation of the assembly.
Le disque lunaire 1 est monté à friction à l'aide d'un canon 3 sur une roue d'entraînement de chant munie de dent dix huit dents 4 ; cet ensemble est ajusté librement sur un canon 5 portant un excentrique 6. The lunar disc 1 is mounted frictionally using a barrel 3 on a song drive wheel provided with tooth eighteen teeth 4; this assembly is freely adjusted on a barrel 5 carrying an eccentric 6.
Un levier de commande 7, commandé par l'excentrique 6, est muni de deux dents en opposition, dont l'une ou l'autre est toujours en prise avec la roue 4. A control lever 7, controlled by the eccentric 6, is provided with two opposing teeth, one or the other of which is always in engagement with the wheel 4.
Un doigt de retenue 8 solidaire ou d'une fausse-plaque 9, ou du mouvement 10, ou de la façade, permet le déplacement longitudinal du levier 7, mais empêche sa rotation autour de l'axe du lunaire (ce doigt peut être une simple goupille retenue dans un trou oblong du levier). A retaining finger 8 integral with a false plate 9, or movement 10, or the facade, allows the longitudinal displacement of the lever 7, but prevents its rotation about the lunar axis (this finger can be a single pin retained in an oblong hole in the lever).
Tout l'ensemble de ce mécanisme est monté comme une aiguille "à gras" sur la roue des heures 11 du mouvement utilisé. The whole of this mechanism is mounted like a "fat" needle on the hour wheel 11 of the movement used.
De ce fait, l'excentrique 6 provoquera un mouvement du levier 7 tel qu'une dent de la roue lunaire sera déplacée sur un cycle de douze heures. Therefore, the eccentric 6 will cause a movement of the lever 7 such that a tooth of the moon wheel will be moved on a twelve hour cycle.
La mise en position manuelle du disque lunaire s'effectue à n'importe quel moment en agissant sur le disque lui-même, soit à travers une ouverture d'accès à l'arrière de la pendule, soit à travers l'ouverture du cadran. The manual positioning of the lunar disc is done at any time by acting on the disc itself, either through an access opening at the back of the pendulum, or through the opening of the dial .
Un tel système permet son adaptation à n'importe quel type de mouvement, n'utilise aucun sautoir ni ressort et, en outre, offre l'avantage d'un contrôle total du mécanisme séparément du mouvement d'horlogerie. Il va de soi
MECANISME, NOTAMMENT POUR L'AFFICHACE DES PHASES DE LA LUNE.Such a system allows its adaptation to any type of movement, does not use any jumper or spring and, moreover, offers the advantage of total control of the mechanism separately from the clockwork movement. It is obvious
MECHANISM, ESPECIALLY FOR THE DISPLAY OF THE MOON PHASES.
que le mode d'affichage proposé, qui est le plus couramment employé, pourrait
être d'un autre type, pour autant que l'ensemble du mécanisme et de
l'affichage pivote sur un axe unique.that the proposed display mode, which is the most commonly used, could
be of another type, provided that the entire mechanism and
the display rotates on a single axis.
De même, l'invention pourrait s'appliquer à d'autres représentations que
les phases de la lune, en utilisant une roue de chant possédant un nombre de
dents approprié. Likewise, the invention could be applied to other representations than
the phases of the moon, using a song wheel with a number of
appropriate teeth.
