Definitions
- Watch movement comprising a flexible guiding system
- the present invention relates to a watch movement, in particular for a wristwatch, comprising a flexible guiding system.
- the flexible guide systems are designed to allow the displacement of a component in a determined direction in rotation or translation without friction.
- These systems include resilient guide portions which connect a movable portion, constituting said component, to an attachment portion for securing the flexible guide system to a support such as the turntable of a watch movement. Examples of such systems are described in EP 2037335, EP 2273323 and WO 201 1/120180. They all have the disadvantage of occupying an important place in the movement, especially in height.
- the present invention aims to overcome this drawback, or at least to mitigate it, and proposes for this purpose a watch movement comprising a frame and a mechanism mounted in or on the frame, the mechanism comprising a flexible guide system comprising a part for fixing and a moving part connected by elastic guide parts, characterized in that the flexible guide system is located partly in an opening of a frame member and is fixed by the fastening part to the side wall of said opening.
- the attachment portion and the movable portion are stiffer, or have a more rigid portion, than the resilient portions.
- the mechanism includes all or part of the moving components of the movement. It can include several so-called flexible guidance systems to guide multiple components.
- the frame may be the fixed frame of the movement or a movable frame mounted on the fixed frame and carrying the mechanism.
- the flexible guiding system is fixed to the side wall of said opening by elastic deformation of the fixing part, deformation which may be purely elastic or which may be an elastic component of a plastic and elastic deformation (hunting).
- the fixing portion may comprise a first annular portion connected to the movable portion by the elastic guide portions and a second annular portion surrounding the first annular portion and connected thereto by discrete connecting portions.
- the attachment portion may comprise a first portion connected to the movable portion by the resilient guide portions and resilient arms connecting the side wall of said opening to the first portion.
- Said element of the frame may be a plate or a bridge.
- Said opening may be circular and / or through.
- the attachment portion surrounds the movable portion.
- the flexible guide system is monolithic.
- the mechanism may comprise a component integral with the movable portion and located outside the opening.
- Such a component may be a rocker, an escapement anchor, a lever or a rocker for example.
- the component may be a clutch rocker carrying a clutch wheel.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a flexible guide system according to a first embodiment of the invention, driven into an opening of a frame member (platinum or bridge) of a watch movement;
- FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a part of a watch movement comprising a flexible guiding system according to the invention, the latter being driven into an aperture of the watch movement platen and guiding a clutch lever;
- FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a flexible guide system according to a second embodiment of the invention, driven into an opening of a frame member (platinum or bridge) of a watch movement;
- FIG. 4 is a perspective view of a flexible guide system according to a third embodiment of the invention, driven into an opening of a frame member (platinum or bridge) of a watch movement.
- a flexible guide system comprises a fixing portion 1 and a movable portion 2 connected by resilient blades 3.
- the elastic blades 3 are of the type "crossed blades not separated” and thus physically intersect at a point 4.
- the resilient blades 3 form a flexible pivot allowing the movable portion 2 to be guided without friction in rotation about the point 4.
- the fixing portion 1, the movable portion 2 and the elastic blades 3 are coplanar.
- the fixing portion 1 has an annular shape which surrounds the movable portion 2.
- a radial protuberance 1 a located on the inner face of the attachment portion 1 serves as a stop for surfaces 2a of the movable part 2 to limit the angular deflection of the movable part 2 with respect to the attachment part 1.
- the fixing portion 1 is driven into an opening 5 which the platen or a bridge 6 of the fixed frame of a watch movement.
- the opening 5 is preferably circular and through, as illustrated.
- the plate or the bridge 6 having the opening 5 is shown schematically in the form of a ring.
- the flexible guide system 1, 2, 3 is integrated with the fixed frame of the movement and frees up space for the other mobile components of the movement, especially in height.
- great freedom is offered for the placement of the flexible guide system 1, 2, 3 in the movement, since it is sufficient to provide an opening in the plate or a bridge and to introduce the flexible guide system 1, 2, 3. It goes of course that this principle can also be applied to a moving frame of the movement mounted on the fixed frame, for example to a tourbillon cage.
- the moving part 2 could constitute a component of the movement, such as a pendulum.
- the movable portion 2 carries assembly means, for example pins or pins 7, by which a movable component of the movement can be secured to the movable part 2.
- This mobile component is then located 5.
- This mobile component is for example a lever or rocker such as a clutch rocker 8 carrying a clutch wheel 9 as shown in Figure 2. It could, alternatively, be a pendulum or an escape anchor for example.
- the movement mechanism of which the flexible guide system 1, 2, 3 is part is partially represented and designated by the reference 20.
- slots 10 formed in the fixing part 1 divide the latter into two concentric annular parts 11, 12 connected to one another by parts
- the outer annular portion 1 1 undergoes most of the deformation stresses during the driving of the flexible guide system 1, 2, 3 in the opening 5 of the frame.
- the inner annular portion 12 is, itself, substantially isolated from the driving stresses by the lights 10.
- the point 4 of crossing the elastic strips 3, around which the movable part 2 pivots, is thus not substantially displaced during the driving, this which increases the operating accuracy of the component.
- the fixing part 1 comprises an inner annular portion 14 which surrounds the movable part 2 and is connected to the latter by the elastic blades 3, and elastic arms 15 which are connected to the inner annular portion 14 by a connecting part 16.
- the elastic arms 15 are in contact with the side wall 5a of the opening 5 and maintain the flexible guide system 1, 2, 3 in the opening 5 by their elastic deformation.
- the flexible guide system 1, 2, 3 Unlike the first and second embodiments ( Figures 1 and 3) where the flexible guide system 1, 2, 3 is forced into the opening 5 and the attachment portion 1 undergoes elastic and plastic deformation, the elastic component of the deformation ensuring the maintenance of the system 1, 2, 3 in the opening 5, the flexible guide system 1, 2, 3 according to the third embodiment ( Figure 4) can be fixed to the side wall 5a the opening 5 by bringing the elastic arms 15 closer to one another, then being introduced into the opening 5 and then releasing the elastic arms 15 so that they exert stresses against the side wall 5a of the opening 5.
- the flexible guidance system according to the invention can be produced monolithically, for example in silicon or in any other suitable material according to the technique of deep reactive ion etching (DRIE), in nickel, alloy of nickel or any other suitable material according to the LIGA technique (lithography, electroplating, molding), steel, copper-beryllium, nickel silver or other metal alloy by milling or electroerosion, or metal glass by molding.
- DRIE deep reactive ion etching
- the flexible guide system according to the invention could define another type of flexible pivot that a pivot with unseparated crossed blades, for example a pivot with separate crossed blades or a pivot with a remote center of rotation called "RCC" (Remote Center Compliance).
- the flexible guide system could also alternatively be a linear guide system.
- the fastening portion 1 could be fixed to the side wall 5a of the opening 5 in another way that by driving or purely elastic deformation, for example by gluing or welding.
