Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a timepiece comprising at least first and second rings on which are affixed respectively first and second indications arranged to display in combination a time value appearing through a large window.
  • timepieces displaying the calendar of the month are equipped with a single disk or ring on the periphery of which are placed numerals ranging from 0 to 31 and appearing through a window pierced in the dial. of the timepiece.
  • numerals ranging from 0 to 31 and appearing through a window pierced in the dial. of the timepiece.
  • the indications of the date are then of small dimensions and relatively little visible.
  • timepieces are provided on the market equipped with a display or calendar said to large aperture through which appear a first indicator on which are affixed the numbers of the tens of the date and a second indicator on which are affixed the figures of the units of said date.
  • the indicators are rings of different sizes, placed one in the other and therefore arranged concentrically with respect to each other, the indications appearing at the same level in the large window.
  • the document also proposes the display using these indicators of the calendar of the month or the last two digits of the year. Displaying the last two digits of the year presupposes two rings on each of which are displayed ten numbers ranging from 0 to 9, the value appearing in the large window being able to take a hundred separate positions.
  • the size of the numbers affixed on the inner ring is smaller than the size that could take the figures of the outer ring, the balance then leading to decrease the size of the figures of the outer ring to match that of the figures of the inner ring.
  • first and second rings have substantially equal dimensions, that they are arranged first. on the second, and decentered first relative to the second so that the right of the large window, the outer edge of the first ring substantially approximates the inner edge of the second ring.
  • the timepiece of the invention comprises at least first and second rings 1 and 2.
  • rings that literature often calls discs, probably erroneously, are flattened in the manner of a washer to carry respectively first and second indications 3 and 4. These indications are arranged to display in combination a temporal magnitude 5 appearing through a large window 6 pierced in a dial not shown in the drawing.
  • the display of the present invention is distinguished by several remarkable and original arrangements. It is first noted that the first and second rings 1 and 2 have substantially equal dimensions, a single ring to be executed which simplifies the manufacture. It is then seen that the first ring 1 is disposed on the second ring 2. Finally, the first ring 1 is off-center with respect to the second ring 2 and this in such a way, as is clearly explained by the Figures 1 and 3 , that the right of the large window 6 the outer edge 7 of the first ring 1 substantially approximates the inner edge 8 of the second ring 2.
  • the indications affixed to the rings are of a temporal nature without necessarily being Arabic numerals. For example, there might be zodiac or Asian signs.
  • each of the first and second rings 1 and 2 are affixed respectively ten figures 3 and 4 of the Arabic type ranging from 0 to 9. It is understood that the combination of these figures can display a hundred distinct temporal quantities or one hundred positions through the large window 6.
  • the height and the width of the digit were respectively measured 3.35 and 2.37 millimeters if the disks are made and arranged according to the present invention, while this height and this width are reduced to 2.95 and 2.08 millimeters respectively if the discs are arranged concentrically to one another. It is therefore understandable that there is interest in arranging the rings according to the present invention since the figures, for the same final size, have a significantly larger size.
  • first and second rings 1 and 2 are rotated respectively by first and second teeth 9 and 10 formed on their inner edge 11 and 8.
  • a kinematic chain can connect the teeth 9 and 10 such that the first ring 1 advances one step every time the second ring 2 has progressed ten steps.
  • the first and second sets of teeth 9 and 10 are respectively engaged with first and second mobiles 12 and 13 in turn engaged respectively with first and second motors 14 and 15.
  • the invention can be applied to any kind of timepiece. However, it finds its full raison d'titude when it is a question of displaying by means of the two rings magnitudes being able to take a hundred positions. This is the case for example the display of the current year by its last two digits, or the display of the tenth and hundredth of a second of a chronograph.
  • FIG. 4 to 14 This exemplary embodiment is shown in Figures 4 to 14 which present the succession of the steps implemented to build the essential part of the chronograph watch, as well as in the Figures 16 and 17 which are cuts respectively according to lines XVI-XVI and XVII-XVII of the figure 15 .
  • the figure 4 shows the basic module of the timepiece from which emerge in known manner the barrel 30 of the hour wheel on which is set the hour hand (not shown) the floor 31 on which is fitted the needle of the minutes (not shown) and the axis 32 of the second wheel on which is fitted the second hand (not shown).
  • these needles are driven in a known manner by a motor 33 to form a first assembly 34 thermo welded by pins 35 and 36.
  • a second assembly 37 as seen on the figure 5 .
  • This second assembly 37 comprises a base plate 38 on which rest two stators 39 and 40 each pierced by an opening 41 and 42 in each of which is housed a rotor 43 and 44 shown in FIG. figure 6 .
  • FIG. 6 shows again that on the stators 39 and 40 are mounted coils 45 and 46, these coils being each provided with a core 47 and 48 to form the motors 15 and 14.
  • each rotor 43 and 44 is equipped with a pinion 49 and 50 and a support 51 is disposed between the assemblies 34 and 37, the assemblies 34 and 37 and the support 51 being mounted on a plate (not shown ) of the timepiece.
  • On the support 51 are mounted two mobiles 13 and 12 each comprising a wheel 52 and 53 and a pinion 54 and 55 as shown in FIG. figure 7 .
  • the wheel 52 is engaged with the pinion 49 of the engine 15, and the wheel 53 is engaged with the pinion 50 of the engine 14.
  • FIG. 7 The wheel 52 is engaged with the pinion 49 of the engine 15
  • the wheel 53 is engaged with the pinion 50 of the engine 14.
  • a plate 56 is disposed on the assembly 37, this plate 56 serving as bearings for the shafts 57 and 58 emerging from the rotors 43 and 44 and to the shafts 59 and 60 of the mobiles 13 and 12.
  • Nipples 61, 62, 63 and 64 from the base plate 38 maintain the assembly 37 by heat sealing.
  • a plate 17 On the assembly described above is placed a plate 17 arranged to receive the rings 1 and 2 arranged according to the present invention. As we see on the figure 9 , from this plate 17 emerge pinions 54 and 55 which has been discussed above and the assembly 70 carrying the hour, minute and second hands.
  • the second ring 2 rests in a housing 16 shown in FIG. figure 9 .
  • This housing 16 has a circular periphery 19 serving as a guide to the outer edge 18 of the second ring 2 and the second toothing 10 of the latter is engaged with the pinion 54 of the motor 15 as shown on the figure 10 .
  • the figure 11 shows that a first holding plate 20 rests on the second toothing 10 of the second ring 2 to retain the latter.
  • a circular spacer 21 rests on the first holding plate 20 as shown in FIG. figure 12 , the circular edge 22 of said spacer 21 serving as a guide to the first ring 1 by the first toothing 9 of the first ring 1 is engaged with the pinion 55 of the motor 14.
  • the figure 14 shows that a second holding plate 23 rests on the first toothing 9 of the first ring 1 to retain the latter.
  • heat-sealed rivets 24 and 25 ensure the attachment of the first and second holding plates 20 and 23 and the spacer 21 to the plate 17 from which said rivets are derived.
  • the motors mentioned in this description may be stepper motors controlled by an integrated circuit controlled in turn by pushers and / or a crown equipping the timepiece and this in the image of what is described in the document EP 1 184 751 A1 Cited above.
  • the stepper motors are of the Lavet type.
  • Other types of motors could be envisaged, for example of the multipolar or piezoelectric type.
