Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION The invention relates to a striking mechanism for a watch or timepiece comprising a movement, said striking mechanism being capable of operating in passing according to at least two distinct striking modes, and according to at least two distinct melodies and / or on at least two sets of distinct timbres.

The invention also relates to a watch comprising a movement comprising a ringing trigger output when passing through the movement, this movement being arranged to drive at least one reference mobile, and this watch comprises at least one such ringing mechanism .

The invention also relates to a timepiece comprising a movement comprising a ringing trigger output when passing through the movement, this movement being arranged to drive at least one reference mobile, and the timepiece comprises at minus such a striking mechanism.

The invention relates to the field of striking mechanisms for watches, timepieces or music boxes.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Clockwork striking mechanisms are of great complications, complex as much by the number and the complexity of the kinematics of their components, as according to the operating modes of which they are capable. The selection from among different ringing modes is in itself an additional complication, which uses expensive components, such as column wheels or the like, and which consumes a substantial volume inside the watch case or the timepiece, a box which often has a notch for this selection function. The interface between the selection mechanism and the outside of the box must also have a special seal. Managing security between the different modes is always difficult.

These mechanisms are further complicated for the selection of an even greater number of distinct modes, in particular when it comes to differentiating the play of different melodies, which can for example be used to differentiate the quarter sounds, or the play of different stamps, as in patent EP 2 947 523 B1 from the same depositor, to integrate a wake-up mechanism according to request EP 15 190 808.4 from the same depositor, a safety mechanism for selection and / or triggering of ringing or melody according to application EP 15 168 700.1 from the same applicant, a mechanism for selecting a melody with disengageable lifting according to application EP 15 183 110.4 from the same applicant, or even a chime ringing according to application EP 16 206 572.6 from the same applicant.

Detailed description of the preferred embodiments The invention relates to a watch 1000 or a timepiece 2000, comprising at least one particular striking mechanism 100. Such a timepiece 2000 can be a music box, or include a music box. François LECOULTRE's work "Complicated watches", Editions horlogères, Bienne (Switzerland), 1985, ISBN 2-88 175-000-1, describes in detail the basic mechanisms constituting the striking mechanisms, pages 97 to 205, under different chapters: - ringtones, - antique rehearsal, CH 714 018 A2 - modern quarter repeater, - simplified repetition, - half shift repetition, - Breguet half-shift rehearsal, - five minute rehearsal, - minute repeater, - large bell. Unless necessary, these basic mechanisms will not be repeated here in detail, the ringtone specialist will be able to find its constitution in this universal reference work, in particular in the last two chapters cited above. The striking mechanism 100 according to the invention comprises, in a conventional manner, at least one reference mobile 1, and preferably a plurality of reference mobiles 1, comprising snails and / or time reference stars, and in particular a minute snail, a quarter snail, a 190 hour snail. This ringing mechanism 100 also includes at least one mobile ringing trainer 2, as explained in particular in the chapter "large ringing" of the book "Complicated watches" and visible in particular in Figure 40 of this book. This mobile ringing trainer 2 conventionally comprises a detent röchet 22 and a rack pinion 24. The ringing mechanism 100 is capable of operating in passing according to at least two distinct ringing modes, and according to at least two distinct melodies and / or on at least two sets of distinct timbres. According to the invention, this striking mechanism 100 includes a mode selector mechanism 9, which is combined with a melody and / or timbre selector mechanism. This mode selector mechanism 9 more particularly comprises a mode selector 96 accessible to the user to enable him to choose the ringing mode to be used, and at least one ringing and / or timbre selection means controlled by the movement 200 for ringing on the way, and / or accessible to the user for selecting a ringing and / or a set of timbres, for executing ringing on the way or for the minute repeater when the ringing mechanism 100 has a minute repeater mechanism. More particularly, the ringing mechanism 100 comprises at least one ringing and / or timbre selection means 103, 104, which is distinct from the mode selector 96. The striking mechanism 100 cooperates with a movement 200, which drives the reference mobile (s) 1, and a particular outlet 3 of which is illustrated in the figures, in the nonlimiting form of a striking star 130 by movement, adjusted on a roadway, and having four teeth, so as to be able to lift, every quarter of an hour, an intermediate rocker triggered by movement, hereinafter lifted 70. The striking mechanism 100 comprises at least one pivoting part, which is arranged to cooperate indirectly, via this lift 70, with the output 3 of the movement 200, and in particular comprises a feeler for reading such a reference mobile 1 and a rack pinion drive rake 24. One of these pivoting parts is an hour part 20 arranged to cooperate with the hour snail 190. The striking mechanism 100 also includes a main pawl 85, which is arranged to be set in motion during each ring on the way, and to come to drive, when possible, the trigger röchet 22. The ringing mechanism 100 according to the invention comprises all or part of the main ringing modes: large ringing, small ringing, alarm clock, silence, and more particularly comprises a repeating mechanism, in particular a minute repeating mechanism, such as explained in particular in the chapter "minute repeater" in the book "Complicated watches". The non-limiting variant illustrated by the figures includes three ringing modes: large ringing (GS), small ringing (PS), silence (S), and a repetition to minutes. This minute repeater mechanism notably includes an hour piece 20, arranged to cooperate, with a probe 29 which it comprises, with a 190 hour snail. According to the invention, the ringing mechanism 100 comprises a mode selector mechanism 9. This mode selector mechanism 9 comprises a mode selector 96 accessible to the user to enable him to choose the ringing mode to be used, and which controls the angular position of at least one cam 90. In a variant, the mode selector mechanism 9 comprises at least one cam 90, which can have as many particular positions as there are modes attributable to the striking mechanism as in the variant illustrated in the figures, or which has positions specific to only some of these modes. The illustrated variant represents a flat cam 90, which has three notches each corresponding to one of the selectable modes: 93 small ring, 94 large ring, 95 silence. More particularly, the notches correspond to notches of variable amplitude, requiring increasing effort in one of the two directions of operation. More particularly, a particular notch, for example a notch in the center, is more important than those at the end, so as to ensure security by preventing the user from switching unexpectedly from one ringing mode to another. CH 714 018 A2 The cam 90 occupies particular positions for the different modes. This cam 90 has a continuous external profile 98 for probe support, which is arranged to cooperate with a spout 61 which has a silence rocker 60. This external profile 98 has a zone of larger radius 98S corresponding to the silent mode, which is arranged to orient the silence rocker 60 in a position where a main arm 64 of the silence rocker 60 moves the main pawl 85 away from the trigger 22, to ensure deactivation of any ringing sound in passing, in silence mode. It is understood that the invention lends itself to the selection of an even greater number of distinct modes, in particular when it comes to differentiating the play of different melodies, which can for example serve to differentiate the quarter sounds, or the set of different timbres, as in patent EP 2 947 523 B1 by the same depositor, to integrate a wake-up mechanism according to application EP 15 190 808.4 by the same depositor, a safety mechanism for selecting and / or ringing the trigger or melody according to request EP 15 168 700.1 from the same depositor, a mechanism for selecting a melody with disengageable lifting according to request EP 15 183 110.4 from the same depositor, or a chime ringing according to request EP 16 206 572.6 from the same depositor . The cam 90 can thus have multiple notches: GS melody A, GS melody B, PS melody A, PS melody B, S, and / or again: GS stamp A, GS stamp B, PS stamp A, PS stamp B, S. When the modes to be differentiated are too numerous for a single cam, the mode selector mechanism 9 may comprise a plurality of cams 90, in particular superimposed, each of which may relate to some of these modes, for example with a melody particular, or a particular stamp, or other. Such an arrangement makes it possible, in particular, to distinguish the ringing modes by the melodies played, and / or by the timbres used. For example, the large ring mode corresponds to a first melody and / or a first set of timbres, and the small ring mode corresponds to a second melody and / or a second set of timbres. It is understood that different cams 90 can be superimposed, in particular coaxial, or juxtaposed in a plane, and in particular chained to each other. In addition to the mode selection, intended to ensure that only one mode chosen by the user is implemented by the ringing mechanism 100, the mode selector mechanism 9 ensures deactivation of the ringing in silent mode, moving away the pawls of the striking bell mobile trainer 2, and make it possible to prevent the hours piece from accessing the corresponding snail. In particular, the striking mechanism 100 includes a minute repeater with a minute repeater control 4 comprising a repeating pawl 40, which is arranged to drive the detent röchet 22 after a reading carried out by said hour piece 20 on the 1909 hour snail. And, in the silence mode, the main arm 64 of the silence rocker 60 authorizes the access of the repeating pawl 40 to the trigger röchet 22, as long as the available energy is sufficient for the 'execution of a complete ring. In a particular embodiment, the striking mechanism 100 includes a large striking mode for striking the bell at the passage of each hour, and of each quarter of an hour with the repetition of striking from the hour to the quarter of an hour, and a small ringing mode for ringing at the passage of each hour, and of each quarter of an hour without repeating ringing from the hour to the quarter of an hour. The striking mechanism 100 then comprises a small striking mechanism 80, which is arranged to cooperate by pressing on a cam pin 97 which comprises the cam 90 of the mode selector mechanism 9) for, when the small striking mode is selected, orient the small ringing lever 80 in a position in which the latter prohibits the passage of the hour piece 20 towards the hour snail 190, to prevent the striking of the hours at quarter-hours. When, in this same arrangement, the large ring mode is selected, the cam pin 97 orients the small ring rocker 80 in another position in which it allows the passage of the 20 hour piece towards the 1901 hour snail, to authorize the bell to change from hour to quarter hour. To differentiate the ringing at the passage of hours and quarters of an hour, the striking mechanism 100 advantageously comprises, coaxial with a star 130 of four driven by the output 3 and which is arranged to trigger the passing of the quarter rings. hour, a tear-shaped hour cam 131, having a tip 132 which is arranged to raise the small striking lever 80, and authorize the passage of the hour piece 20 towards the 190 hour snail. The operation of the mode selector mechanism 9 does not hamper the operation of the minute repeater, and in particular in silent mode, except when, advantageously, the striking mechanism 100 includes a particular stop function arranged to prevent the execution of any ringing if the quantity of available energy is insufficient to ensure the complete execution: the ringing mechanism 100 then advantageously comprises a stop mechanism 5, which is arranged to prevent the execution of any ringing , in order to prevent the risk of stopping certain mobiles in intermediate positions, likely to cause collisions during a restart. In the only case where the stop function is efficient, the operation of the minute repeater is also prohibited. This stop mechanism 5 is arranged to rotate a ring reverser rocker 59 when the available energy is insufficient for the execution of a complete ring. This ring reversing rocker 59 controls the pivoting of a ring disengaging lever 55, which is arranged to prevent access to the repeating pawl CH 714 018 A2 40 at the detent röchet 22 when the available energy is insufficient for the execution of a complete ring, and to move the main pawl 85 away from the detent röchet 22 when the available energy is insufficient for the execution of a ring complete. The mode selector mechanism 9 is preferably designed to overcome the notching on the watch case, usual in the prior art: for this purpose, a mode selector lever 96 advantageously controls, in particular by an articulated connection as shown in the figures, the pivoting of the cam 90, or of the cams 90 when there are several. More particularly, a cam jumper 91, associated with a cam jumper spring 92 to hold it in position, comprises a selector finger 99, which cooperates with one of the notches of the cam 90. This jumper 91 and its spring 92 have a double function: to ensure the sensation of passage of the notches for the user, and the certainty of completing the selection maneuver, with a return to a free position corresponding to one of the modes, and never to an intermediate position. Advantageously, the spring 92 is oversized to provide security, and in particular to overcome the friction forces of the seal in the watch case. This cam 90 further includes a cam pin 97, which is arranged to constitute a stop for a small ring latch 20, the function of which is explained below. Outside the mode selection notches, the cam 90 advantageously comprises a continuous external profile 98 and comprising at least two probe support zones, arranged to cooperate with a spout 61 which comprises a rocker of silence 60: a zone of greater radius 98S corresponding to a silent mode, and a zone of smaller radius 98AGS corresponding to a stop in big ring mode, when the stop function and the big ring mode exist. The mode selection mechanism 9 can be used for different ringing mechanisms. Its interactions with the conventional components of a striking mechanism 100 comprising a minute repeater mechanism are illustrated in a particular arrangement which is detailed below, a person skilled in the art, specialist in ringing tones for mechanical watches or timepieces , will be able to transpose them to mechanisms presenting variants. This striking mechanism 100 is first exposed without a stop mechanism. Figures 1 and 2 show the mode selector 9 in the indexing position corresponding to the notch 93 of the small ring, which rings the full hours on the way, and the quarter hours only on the way. The usual quarter piece and snail of the quarter are not shown, in order to simplify the description of the operation. The star 130, arranged near the mobiles of references 1, is arranged to come to cooperate, every quarter of an hour, with a spout 72, in particular elastic, that includes the lifting 70 for triggering ringing. This part of the hours 20 includes a feeler 29 arranged to palpate a snail of the hours 190, and a rake 25 arranged to cooperate with a rack pinion 24 which comprises a mobile ringing trainer 2. This part of the hours 20 also comprises , set back relative to the probe 29, a rib 23 which is terminated, on the same side as the probe 29, by a flat plate 27 for bearing abutment. The mobile ringing trainer 2 comprises, for its part, in a conventional manner, a detent röchet 22, with which is arranged to cooperate, or a main ringing pawl 85, or else a minute repeating trigger pawl 40 , provided with a pin 41, and that includes a minute repeat command 4, where the latter pawl 40 cooperates with a spring 43. The pivoting of the lifting mechanism 70 for triggering the ringing causes the pivoting of a trigger rocker 50 by movement, which carries a thrust spring 52 which bears on the main ringing pawl 85, which also carries the rocker trigger 50. A small ring flip-flop 80 of the conventional type carries a stop pin 82. This small ring flip-flop 80, recalled by a declutching spring 83 fixed to a plate, comprises a declutching spout 81, which is arranged to take pressing on the cam pin 97, which comprises the cam 90. The small ringing lever 80 faces the hour piece 20 during the angular travel of the latter, and the stop pin 82 is at the rib 23 of the hour piece 20, on the same radius, which allows it to cooperate in abutment support with the dish 27 of the hour piece 20, and to immobilize the latter by preventing it from reaching the 1901 snail, so as not to repeat the striking of the hours on each shift, depending on the operation specific to the small bell mode. In order to ensure the striking of the hour at the full hour, the star 130 is integral with an hour cam 131 in the shape of a teardrop, the tip of which 132 is arranged to lift the small scale. buzzer 80, and therefore its stop pin 82, to allow passage to the feeler 29 of the hour piece 20 for reading on the 1901 hour snail. [0050] FIGS. 3 and 4 show the mode selector 9 in the indexing position corresponding to the notch 94 of the large bell, which rings the full hours on the way, and both the hour and the quarter-hour on the way. The usual quarter piece and snail of the quarter are not shown. The support of the cam pin 97 on the small striking lever 80 is made at a greater distance from the end of the declutching spout 81 than in the case of the small striking, and therefore the stop pin 82 n '' is no longer at the rib 23, nor at the flat 27 of the hour piece 20, but is at the level of the clearance 28, which allows the 20 hour pieces to pivot freely towards the 190 hour snail each quarter time. CH 714 018 A2 For operation in silent mode, the striking mechanism 100 comprises a large striking and small striking isolator, hereinafter called the silence flip-flop 60, which comprises at one end a readout spout 61 arranged to cooperate with one of the peripheral zones 98 of the mode selection cam 90, and at a second end 62 a main arm 64, which is arranged to stop a main pawl pin 86, which comprises the main ringing pawl 85. This silence rocker 60 has, in its middle part near its pivot, a silence pin 63. The spring 65 constrains the silence rocker 60 by means of the pin 63, for this rocker is always in contact with the cam 90 by its spout 61. When the selected mode is silent mode, this silence rocker 60 pivots and its part 62 disconnects the pawl 85 from the röchet 22. The cam pin 97 is in contact with the declutching spout 81 of the small ring latch 80. During a minute repeater (in small ring mode), a rocker not shown in the figures makes the link between the control 4 and the rocker light 80, so that the rake for hours 20 can fall on the snail of hours 190 in room 1. This silence flip-flop 60 is visible in FIGS. 5 to 11, which also include a stop mechanism 5, which essentially comprises a striking bell release lever 55. The striking mechanism 100 thus comprises, partially superimposed, the silence rocker 60 and the striking bell release lever 55, which are each arranged to obstruct the access of a particular pawl to the röchet 22 of the striking ringing mobile 2. In fact, the striking clutch release lever 55 comprises a stop arm 56, which is arranged to stop a pin repetition pawl 41, which includes a minute repeating trigger pawl 40, of the minutes repetition control 4. Figs. 5 and 6 show the mode selector 9 in the indexing position corresponding to notch 95 of the silent mode, in which the small ring and the big ring are disengaged, but where the operation of the minute repeater is authorized. The reading spout 61 of the silence rocker 60 is supported on the largest radius 98S of the peripheral range 98 of the cam 90, and, therefore, on the one hand the small ringing rocker 80 is stopped by the cam pin 97 by the spring 67, and, on the other hand, the main arm 64 of the silence rocker 60 is in its position furthest from the striking buzzer mobile 2, and stops the main pawl pin 86. On the other hand, the striking bell release lever 55 is very close to the striking striking mobile 2, since there is nothing to prevent this extreme position, and therefore the minute repeating trigger pawl 40 is not hindered and can access the röchet of detent 22, and the minute repeater can therefore be launched at will by the user. Figs. 7 and 8 illustrate the stop in big ring mode, and show the mode selector 9 in the indexing position corresponding to the notch 94 of the big ring. The stop mechanism 5 is arranged to disengage all the pawls, when the amount of energy available, at the level of the barrel (s) or the like, is insufficient. This time, the reading spout 61 of the silence rocker 60 is supported on the smallest radius 98AGS of the peripheral range 98 of the cam 90, and, at its second end 62, the main arm 64 of the silence rocker 60 is in its position closest to the mobile ringing drive 2, and cannot stop the main pawl pin 86. In on the other hand, the striking bell disengaging lever 55 is in its position furthest from the striking bell driving mobile 2, and thereby hinders both the main pin 86 of the main pawl 85 and the repeating pawl pin 41, therefore the main pawl 85 and the minute repeating trigger pawl 40 are hampered and cannot access the trigger röchet 22. The minute repeater cannot be activated by the user. No ring can therefore be launched. There is nothing to prevent the mode selector lever 96 from being moved to another position. Figs. 9 to 11 illustrate stopping in silent mode, and show the mode selector 9 in the indexing position corresponding to notch 95 of silent mode. This figures show an operating pin 59 for the articulated control of the striking bell release lever 55. The read spout 61 of the silence rocker 60 is supported on the largest radius 98S of the peripheral range 98 of the cam 90 , and the main arm 64 of the silence rocker 60 is in its position furthest from the striking bell mobile 2, and stops the main pawl pin 86. The striking bell release lever 55 is also in its most distant position of the striking ringing mobile 2, and hinders the repeating pawl pin 41. Therefore the main pawl 85 and the minute repeating trigger pawl 40 are hampered and cannot access the detent röchet 22. It is understood that the stopping is only active in the only case where there is no longer enough energy, and that, if not, this stopping mechanism is disengaged. Figs. 13 to 19 illustrate a first variant of the ringing mechanism combining a ringing selection and a mode selection according to the invention, making it possible to play a first melody in the small ringing mode, and a second melody different from the first melody in the mode great ringtone. Figs. 20 to 29 illustrate a second variant of the ringing mechanism combining a ringing selection and a mode selection according to the invention, making it possible to play either of the first melody or the second melody, in each ringing mode . We understand that the only limitation is that of the space inside the watch or the musical timepiece: these first and second variants are presented here each with two melodies, but we understand that the striking mechanism could play more melodies, or even differentiate melodies on different sets of timbres or gongs, in combination with the teachings of patent EP2947523B1 by the same CH 714 018 A2 applicant, and applications EP 15 190 808.4, EP 15 168 700.1, EP 15 183 110.4, and EP 16 206 572.6 from the same applicant, the details of which are not reproduced here. In the same way, the mode selection can be carried out by coaxial cams and / or cams juxtaposed in a plane. The invention is set out below with the particular case of a first melody and a second melody, it is obviously applicable to a greater number of melodies, or to the selection of sets of particular timbres instead. or in addition to the melodies, according to the teachings of the patent applications above. In a particular embodiment, the striking mechanism 100 includes a melody selection cam 101 which is arranged to cooperate with at least one first melody lever 103 and a second melody lever 104, which are both arranged to cooperate with a melody selector 106 arranged to control different lifts 107 for operating striking hammers. This first melody lever 103 and this second melody lever 104 each comprise an intermediate probing spout 1030.10040, which is arranged to traverse the periphery 1011 of the melody selection cam 101. The latter comprises a pin 1010 controlling a fork 1050 of a melody selection probe 105, of which a first finger 1051 follows the periphery 1021 of a melody selection cam by mode 102 whose angular position is controlled directly or indirectly by the mode selector 96, and one of which second finger 1052 is arranged to limit the stroke of a small ring flip-flop 108. The melody selection cam by mode 102 is, more particularly, in the same plane as the melody selection cam 101. More particularly, the mode selector 96 is arranged to control the angular position of a notched sector 1020 integral in pivoting with the melody selection cam by mode 102, which notched sector 1020 is held in position by a jumper and / or a retaining spring. More particularly, the mode selector mechanism 9 comprises a single manipulation member, accessible to the user, constituting the mode selector 96 and arranged to also control said selection of a ringtone and / or a set of stamps. The striking mechanism 100 according to the second variant similarly includes at least one first melody lever 103 and a second melody lever 104, which are both arranged to cooperate with a melody selector 106 arranged to control different levers 107 for operating striking hammers, the first melody lever 103 and the second melody lever 104 each comprising an intermediate feeler spout 1030, 1040, traversing the periphery, respectively of a first cam 114 for managing the first melody, and a second cam 115 for managing the second melody. More particularly, the mode selection and melody command is carried out here by a control mobile 110, which comprises, stacked one on the other, several cams, including a first cam 111, 90, includes notches 112, 93, for its angular positioning and its retention by a jumper 116, 96, with retaining spring, and allowing the management of the modes of small ring, large ring, silence, by its peripheral outline 113, which follows a beak 1090 that comprises a ringing isolator on the way 109, arranged to prevent any interference between a minute repeater, when the ringing mechanism 100 includes a minute repeating mechanism, and a ringing on the way. More particularly, as shown in the figures, at the lower level a first cam 111 is similar to the cam 90 presented above, and includes notches 112 for jumper, and management of the small ring, large ring, silence modes. , by its peripheral contour 113, which follows a spout 1090 that includes a ring isolator on the way 109, arranged to prevent any interference between a minute repeater and a ring on the way. This control mobile 110 is extremely compact, has less overall height than the ringing mobile 2. According to the variant, the mode selector mechanism 9 comprises at least one first cam 90,111, or a toothed sector 1020, which can include as many particular positions as modes attributable to the striking mechanism, or which includes positions specific to only some of these modes. More particularly, the first cam 90,111, or the toothed sector 1020, has notches 93; 94; 95, each corresponding to one of the selected modes. More particularly still, these notches correspond to notches of variable amplitude, requiring increasing effort in one of the two directions of operation. More particularly, a particular notch, in the center or in the vicinity of the center, is more important than those at the end, so as to ensure security by preventing the user from switching unexpectedly from one ringing mode to another. Alternatively, the mode selector mechanism 9 includes at least one melody cam 101, 114, 115, which is arranged to differentiate the play of different melodies, and / or the play of different timbres. More particularly, the mode selector mechanism 9 comprises at least one cam 90, 111, comprising multiple notches for differentiating melodies and / or timbres assigned to each ringing mode. Advantageously, the ringing mechanism 100 is able to operate according to at least two distinct ringing modes including a silent mode. We see that these different variants use many common components, which reduces the production cost, always high for major complications.
