Definitions

  • the subject of the present invention is a watch whose case contains a clockwork movement and an auxiliary device having a function different from that of time measurement, this device being at least partially visible and comprising a circular member movable in rotation around its axis and means for controlling a rotation of this member connected to a control element accessible from outside the housing.
  • the object of the present invention is to improve the known embodiments, relating to such watches, by housing the game device in such a way that it only increases the volume of the case in apparent proportions.
  • the watch according to the present invention is characterized in that said circular member is a ring mounted by means of a rolling bearing around a fixed member supporting the movement.
  • Fig. 1 makes it easy to understand how, in the embodiment shown in the drawing, the object of the invention is achieved.
  • a wristwatch which we recognize the case 1 with handles 2 to which are hung two strands 3 of a bracelet.
  • the glass (not shown) covers the visible face of the case and extends over a dial 4, a set of hands 5 and 6, and an annular member 7 which, as will be seen more far away, is a circular ring coaxial with the movement provided along its internal periphery with a row of cells 8 comprising 37 cells.
  • a push button 9 arranged radially next to the usual crown 10 makes it possible to actuate a rocker which drives the ring 7 in rotation, which allows a ball 11 to move in a perfectly random manner and when the ring 7 s 'is stopped, the ball 11 stops itself in one of the cells 8.
  • Fig. 2 shows how is disposed, inside the housing 1 and around the periphery of the dial 4, the movable ring 7.
  • the housing 1 which has a middle part 13 and a bottom 14, the middle part 1 supporting by its upper periphery the glass 12.
  • a retaining circle 15 which supports by means of elastic elements 16 the movement 17.
  • the retaining circle 15 is covered by an annular plate spacer 18 on which is mounted a fixed ring 19 which plays the role of flange and of which a re-entrant flange 20 presses on the periphery of the dial 4.
  • This ring 19 and the intermediate plate 18 are fixed to the retaining circle 15 by a number of screws 21 engaging in blind holes which are spaced apart in distance in an annular component 19a on which the fixed ring 19 is chased.
  • the parts 19 and 19a On their outer side, the parts 19 and 19a have a profile which makes it possible to trap on the one hand a cage 22 and on the other hand a certain number of balls 23 cooperating with a movable outer ring 24 arranged so as to constitute the path of outer bearing of a ball bearing, the elements 19 and 19a of which form the inner race.
  • the outer ring 24 has at its lower edge a peripheral flange 25 in which is cut sawtooth teeth. The ring 7 is therefore driven out on the upper part of the element 24. Its profile is visible in FIG. 2.
  • these sectors are numbered from 0 to 36, although the number and numbering do not meet any technical criteria.
  • the mobile assembly constituted by the elements elements 24, 7 and 26 can rotate freely around the fixed ring 19 and this movable assembly supports the ball 11 whose diameter is chosen so that it can penetrate into each of the cells 8, the distance between the part 7 and the glass 12 being such that this ball can move freely outwards along the inclined surface which limits the part 7 upwards until it is in contact with the internal face of the middle part 13.
  • the distance between the glass 12 and the upper surfaces of the parts 19 and 24 is such that the ball 11 remains confined in the annular space which surrounds the movement and, consequently, is prevented from entering the central space where the movement takes place needles 5 and 6.
  • rocker 28 which pivots on a pin 29 planted in the retaining circle 15.
  • This rocker 28 has a rigid part 30 which extends in an arc around the movement 17 and which carries at its free end a thin elastic blade 31 fixed to the end of the part 30 by two rivets 32.
  • the rocker 28 includes an elastic arm 33 which comes to bear at its free end against an external peripheral rim of the retaining circle 15.
  • the rocker 28 has a tongue raised at 90 ° 34 on which acts the internal end of the pusher 9 when pressing radially on this control member.
  • the Extreme free mite of the elastic blade 31 therefore moves in an arc around the axis of the pin 29 between the position shown in solid lines in FIG. 4 and the position shown in phantom.
  • the end zone of the tongue 31 which has a hook-shaped enlargement so as to extend at the height of the toothing 25 engages in this toothing and consequently drives the movable part 24, 26 , 7, which produces the launching movement of the ball 11.
  • the elastic arm 33 returns the rocker 28 to the position shown in solid lines in FIG. 4.
  • the movable part, 24, 26, 7 and the ball continue to move until the ball stops in one of the cells 8.
  • the entire control mechanism can be housed around the movement 17 in a space which in height does not exceed the thickness of the movement.
  • the elements of a set of rollers could be housed between the dial and the movement, or between the dial and an auxiliary plate covering the movement.
  • the dial could be provided with a number of holes distributed angularly around its periphery and each assigned a number.
  • provision could be made to mount an annular plate carrying a decoration which would consist of a single radial zone marked with a color different from the rest, this zone being for example marked in black, while the rest of the annular plate would be white.
  • This plate could be rotated by a device similar to that of fig.
  • the annular plate necessarily stops in an orientation for which the narrow sector marked in black corresponds to one of the different holes provided in the dial.
  • the sector marked in black would therefore be visible through the hole oriented in the same way, so that the corresponding number would thus be designated.
  • the different numbers of the set of rollers are distributed randomly around the perimeter of the watch and the marks allowing the number corresponding to each sector to be read are clearly visible through the glass of the watch.
  • the numbers assigned to each of the holes made in the dial could, for certain orientations, corresponding to the longitudinal and transverse axes of the watch, correspond to time signs, 3, 6 , 9 and 12 for example.
