Description

Domaine de l'inventionField of the invention

L'invention concerne un mouvement d'horlogerie, comportant un mécanisme comportant au moins un élément inertiel agencé pour osciller ou pivoter autour d'un premier axe de pivotement par rapport à une structure dudit mouvement, et agencé pour coopérer directement ou indirectement avec au moins un mobile distributeur d'énergie pivotant par rapport à ladite structure autour d'un deuxième axe de pivotement parallèle ou confondu avec ledit premier axe de pivotement et soumis à un couple exercé par au moins une source d'énergie.The invention relates to a clockwork movement, comprising a mechanism comprising at least one inertial element arranged to oscillate or pivot about a first axis of pivot relative to a structure of said movement, and arranged to cooperate directly or indirectly with at least a mobile energy distributor pivoting relative to said structure about a second pivot axis parallel to or coincident with said first pivot axis and subjected to a torque exerted by at least one energy source.

L'invention concerne encore une montre comportant au moins un tel mouvement.The invention also relates to a watch comprising at least one such movement.

L'invention concerne le domaine des mécanismes d'horlogerie, en particuliers de ceux qui sont sensibles aux mouvements de l'utilisateur ou de l'appareil qui les porte, et dont le fonctionnement est sensible aux accélérations liées aux circonstances du porté, comme des vols en avion, des mouvements brusques ou encore des chutes. L'invention trouve un intérêt tout particulier pour assurer une protection à des résonateurs, des régulateurs, ou des organes moteurs.The invention relates to the field of watch mechanisms, in particular those that are sensitive to the movements of the user or the device that carries them, and whose operation is sensitive to accelerations related to the circumstances of the worn, such as flights, sudden movements or falls. The invention finds a particular interest for providing protection to resonators, regulators, or drive members.

Arrière-plan de l'inventionBackground of the invention

Dans un mécanisme d'échappement classique d'horlogerie, de type ancre suisse, la roue d'échappement a un mouvement de rotation variable: lors de chaque alternance, elle est initialement bloquée par l'ancre, puis brièvement accélérée par le couple appliqué par le barillet, et finalement à nouveau bloquée. Ces longues phases en position bloquée confèrent à ce type d'échappement une grande robustesse aux accélérations de rotation dues au porté.In a classic Swiss-anchor escapement mechanism, the escapement wheel has a variable rotational movement: at each alternation, it is initially blocked by the anchor, then briefly accelerated by the torque applied by the barrel, and finally blocked again. These long phases in locked position give this type of exhaust a great robustness to rotational accelerations due to the worn.

Certains échappements, tels que l'échappement de Clifford, ou l'échappement magnétique à synchronisation directe, nécessitent que la roue d'échappement tourne à vitesse quasi constante, sans phase d'immobilisation. Cette rotation continue présente de nombreux avantages, en particulier une augmentation du rendement énergétique de l'échappement, car il n'est plus nécessaire d'accélérer la roue d'échappement à chaque alternance. En revanche, ces systèmes peuvent devenir sensibles aux accélérations de rotation dues au porté, car la roue d'échappement a forcément une certaine inertie. Dans un cas particulièrement défavorable, une accélération due au porté s'opposant à la rotation normale de la roue peut l'arrêter temporairement, voire définitivement si l'échappement n'est pas auto-démarrant.Some escapements, such as the Clifford escapement, or the direct synchronization magnetic escapement, require the escape wheel to rotate at a near constant speed, with no downtime. This continuous rotation has many advantages, in particular an increase in the energy efficiency of the exhaust, because it is no longer necessary to accelerate the escape wheel at each alternation. On the other hand, these systems can become sensitive to rotational accelerations due to the wear, because the escape wheel necessarily has a certain inertia. In one case particularly disadvantageous, an acceleration due to the bearing against the normal rotation of the wheel can stop temporarily or permanently if the exhaust is not self-starting.

Ce problème de sensibilité au porté n'a pas été efficacement résolu dans le cas de l'échappement de Clifford. Il a plutôt été choisi d'utiliser un tel échappement dans une pièce d'horlogerie statique, tel une horloge ou un réveil de table, qui par définition ne subit aucune accélération due au porté.This bearing sensitivity problem was not effectively solved in the case of Clifford's escape. Rather, it has been chosen to use such an escapement in a static timepiece, such as a clock or a table alarm clock, which by definition does not undergo any acceleration due to the worn.

Résumé de l'inventionSummary of the invention

L'invention se propose d'apporter une solution simple, de coût réduit, au problème récurrent de la protection contre les accélérations indésirables et perturbatrices de la marche ou du bon fonctionnement des mécanismes horlogers.The invention proposes to provide a simple solution, low cost, the recurring problem of protection against unwanted and disruptive accelerations of walking or the proper functioning of the watch mechanisms.

En particulier dans les échappements dont la roue d'échappement tourne à vitesse constante, l'invention consiste à ajouter au moins un mobile d'inertie équivalente à celle du mobile d'échappement, mais tournant en sens opposé afin de rejeter les accélérations de rotation dues au porté.In particular in the escapements whose escape wheel rotates at a constant speed, the invention consists in adding at least one mobile of inertia equivalent to that of the mobile escapement, but rotating in the opposite direction in order to reject the rotational accelerations. due to the worn.

A cet effet, l'invention concerne un mouvement d'horlogerie selon la revendication 1.For this purpose, the invention relates to a watch movement according to claim 1.

L'invention concerne un encore un mouvement d'horlogerie selon la revendication 30.The invention further relates to a watch movement according to claim 30.

Cet au moins un mobile d'inertie 30 est également distinct de chaque source d'énergie 300. Il est, encore, distinct du rouage 40, quand le au moins un mobile distributeur d'énergie 20 est soumis à un couple exercé par au moins une source d'énergie 300 au travers d'un rouage 40.This at least one mobile inertia 30 is also distinct from each energy source 300. It is, again, distinct from the gear 40, when the at least one mobile energy distributor 20 is subjected to a torque exerted by at least a source of energy 300 through a gear 40.

Ce troisième axe de pivotement D3 est parallèle ou confondu avec le deuxième axe de pivotement D2. Chaque mobile d'inertie 30 est agencé pour pivoter en sens contraire du mobile distributeur d'énergie 20, et l'inertie totale des mobiles d'inertie 30 est comprise entre 60% et 140% de l'inertie du mobile distributeur d'énergie 20.This third pivot axis D3 is parallel or coincides with the second pivot axis D2. Each mobile inertia 30 is arranged to pivot in the opposite direction of the mobile energy distributor 20, and the total inertia of the mobile inertia 30 is between 60% and 140% of the inertia of the mobile energy distributor 20.

Les résultats sont excellents avec l'inertie totale des mobiles d'inertie 30 est comprise entre 98% et 102% de l'inertie du mobile distributeur d'énergie 20.The closer we approach the value of the inertia of the mobile energy distributor 20, and the better is the insensitivity to the angular accelerations of the worn. Advantageously, such an inertia mobile 30 comprises fine adjustment means for the value of its inertia, for example on the figure 2 with a network of holes located on the same radius relative to the third pivot axis D3, which holes are arranged to receive inserts of mass adapted to the desired inertia adjustment. The results are excellent with the total inertia of the mobile inertia 30 is between 98% and 102% of the inertia of the mobile energy distributor 20.

Plus particulièrement, au moins une roue extérieure au rouage 40 engrène indirectement avec une roue du rouage 40, au travers d'au moins un mobile de transmission distinct de l'élément inertiel 10, distinct de chaque source d'énergie 300, et distinct du rouage 40.More particularly, at least one wheel external to the gear 40 meshes indirectly with a wheel of the gear train 40, through at least one transmission gear separate from the inertial element 10, distinct from each energy source 300, and distinct from the gears 40.

De façon particulière, au moins un mobile d'inertie 30, ou plus particulièrement chaque mobile d'inertie 30, est une roue folle.In particular, at least one mobile inertia 30, or more particularly each mobile inertia 30, is a crazy wheel.

Plus particulièrement, le mobile distributeur d'énergie 20 engrène indirectement avec au moins un mobile d'inertie 30 au travers d'au moins un mobile de transmission.

Plus particulièrement mais non limitativement, le mobile d'inertie 30 est unique, tel que visible sur les figures 1 et 2.More particularly, but not exclusively, the mobile inertia 30 is unique, as visible on the figures 1 and 2 .

De façon particulière et avantageuse, quand le mobile d'inertie 30 est unique, et n'est pas en prise directe avec le mobile distributeur d'énergie 20, le rapport Ri/Rref entre l'inertie Ri du mobile d'inertie 30 et l'inertie Rref du mobile distributeur d'énergie 20 est égal au rapport Vref/Vi entre la vitesse de rotation nominale Vref du mobile distributeur d'énergie 20 et la vitesse de rotation nominale Vi du mobile d'inertie 30.In a particular and advantageous manner, when the mobile inertia 30 is unique, and is not in direct contact with the mobile energy distributor 20, the ratio Ri / Rref between the inertia Ri of the inertia mobile 30 and the inertia Rref of the mobile energy distributor 20 is equal to the ratio Vref / Vi between the nominal rotation speed Vref of the mobile energy distributor 20 and the nominal rotation speed Vi of the mobile inertia 30.

Dans une autre variante, le mobile distributeur d'énergie 20 est relié à la au moins une source d'énergie 300 par un rouage 40, et au moins un mobile d'inertie 30, ou chaque mobile d'inertie 30, est une roue appartenant au rouage 40 tel que visible sur la variante de la figure 2, qui permet un tel agencement, avec un rouage de barillet, non représenté, en prise avec le mobile d'inertie 30, ou encore au moins un mobile d'inertie 30, ou chaque mobile d'inertie 30, est une roue engrenant avec une roue du rouage comme représenté sur la figure 4, sous réserve de tourner en sens inverse du mobile distributeur d'énergie 20.In another variant, the mobile energy distributor 20 is connected to the at least one energy source 300 by a gear train 40, and at least one inertia moving wheel 30, or each moving wheel 30, is a wheel belonging to the gear train 40 as visible on the variant of the figure 2 , which allows such an arrangement, with a barrel wheel, not shown, in engagement with the inertia wheel 30, or at least one inertia wheel 30, or each inertia wheel 30, is a wheel meshing with a wheel of the gear as shown on the figure 4 , subject to turn in the opposite direction of the mobile energy distributor 20.

Plus particulièrement, le mécanisme 100 et le mobile distributeur d'énergie 20 sont agencés pour contrôler un pivotement continu, sans arrêt, du mobile distributeur d'énergie 20.More particularly, the mechanism 100 and the mobile energy distributor 20 are arranged to control a continuous pivoting, without stopping, of the mobile energy distributor 20.

Plus particulièrement, le mécanisme 100 et le mobile distributeur d'énergie 20 sont agencés pour contrôler un pivotement du mobile distributeur d'énergie 20 à une vitesse qui est proportionnelle, avec un facteur de proportionnalité constant, à la valeur du couple exercé par la au moins une source d'énergie 300.More particularly, the mechanism 100 and the mobile energy distributor 20 are arranged to control a pivoting of the mobile energy distributor 20 at a speed which is proportional, with a constant proportionality factor, to the value of the torque exerted by the less a source of energy 300.

Plus particulièrement et tel que visible sur la figure 2, le mobile d'inertie 30 pivote sur une plaque intermédiaire 50 qui est mobile par rapport à la structure 12, et qui comporte des moyens de réglage de position 51 du troisième axe de pivotement D3 par rapport à la structure 12, tels que rainure oblongue/goupille, et/ou vis excentrique, ou autre.More particularly and as visible on the figure 2 the flywheel 30 pivots on an intermediate plate 50 which is movable relative to the structure 12, and which has position adjustment means 51 of the third pivot axis D3 with respect to the structure 12, such as an oblong groove / pin, and / or eccentric screw, or other.

Dans un mode particulier de réalisation, et en particulier sur les variantes illustrées par les figures, chaque mobile d'inertie 30 est isolé de tout élément inertiel 10 par un mobile distributeur d'énergie 20, qui est interposé entre ce mobile d'inertie 30 et chaque élément inertiel 10.

Dans une variante particulière de réalisation, le mécanisme 100 est un mécanisme résonateur, qui comporte au moins un élément inertiel 10 agencé pour osciller autour du premier axe de pivotement D1 par rapport à la structure 12 du mouvement 1000, et qui est agencé pour coopérer directement ou indirectement avec le au moins un mobile distributeur d'énergie 20.In a particular variant embodiment, the mechanism 100 is a resonator mechanism, which comprises at least one inertial element 10 arranged to oscillate around the first pivot axis D1 relative to the structure 12 of the movement 1000, and which is arranged to cooperate directly or indirectly with the at least one mobile energy distributor 20.

Plus particulièrement, le mécanisme résonateur est dépourvu d'arrêtoir, notamment dépourvu d'ancre.More particularly, the resonator mechanism is devoid of a stop, in particular without anchor.

Plus particulièrement, le au moins un mobile distributeur d'énergie 20 est une roue d'échappement comme dans les variantes des figures 1 et 2.More particularly, the at least one mobile energy distributor 20 is an escape wheel as in the variants of the figures 1 and 2 .

Dans une autre variante particulière de réalisation, le mécanisme 100 est un mécanisme régulateur de sonnerie, qui comporte des moyens de régulation par courants de Foucault et/ou par ressort de rappel et/ou par friction mécanique et/ou par friction aérodynamique.In another particular embodiment, the mechanism 100 is a ringer regulator mechanism, which comprises eddy current regulation means and / or by return spring and / or mechanical friction and / or aerodynamic friction.

Dans une autre variante particulière de réalisation schématisée par la figure 3, le mécanisme 100 est un mécanisme électro-mécanique qui comporte, ou bien une génératrice électrique alimentée par un barillet mécanique transmettant un couple moteur au mobile distributeur d'énergie 20 qui comporte un rotor 60 avec des secteurs magnétiques dont les champs sont agencés pour coopérer avec au moins un stator bobiné 61, ou bien comporte un moteur électrique à rotation continue comportant des moyens d'alimentation électrique ou au moins une pile alimentant un stator bobiné 61 agencé pour coopérer avec des champs émis par des secteurs magnétiques d'un rotor 60 agencé pour entraîner le au moins un mobile distributeur d'énergie 20 pour l'entraînement d'un mécanisme horloger ou d'un afficheur ou d'une aiguille.In another particular variant of embodiment schematized by the figure 3 , the mechanism 100 is an electromechanical mechanism which comprises, or an electric generator powered by a mechanical barrel transmitting a motor torque to the mobile energy distributor 20 which comprises a rotor 60 with magnetic sectors whose fields are arranged to cooperate with at least one wound stator 61, or comprises an electric motor to continuous rotation comprising electrical supply means or at least one battery supplying a wound stator 61 arranged to cooperate with fields emitted by magnetic sectors of a rotor 60 arranged to drive the at least one mobile energy distributor 20 for the driving a watch mechanism or a display or a needle.

L'invention concerne encore une montre 2000 comportant au moins un tel mouvement 1000. Naturellement, cette montre peut être une montre-bracelet, une montre de poche, ou encore une montre de véhicule, aéronef, voiture, navire, par exemple un chronomètre de marine, ou autre.The invention also relates to a watch 2000 comprising at least one such movement 1000. Naturally, this watch can be a wristwatch, a pocket watch, or even a watch of a vehicle, aircraft, car, ship, for example a stop watch. marine, or other.

L'invention permet une transformation économique de mouvements existants, par rajout de mobiles d'inertie. Elle s'accommode de l'espace disponible, puisqu'il n'est pas indispensable d'avoir un mobile d'inertie unique, et il est possible, avec des jeux de renvois, de tirer le meilleur parti de zones encore disponibles au sein de la boîte de montre.The invention allows an economic transformation of existing movements, by addition of mobile inertia. It accommodates the available space, since it is not essential to have a single mobile of inertia, and it is possible, with games of referrals, to make the most of areas still available within of the watch box.

En somme, pour le cas particulier d'un mécanisme d'échappement, l'invention propose d'ajouter sur le train de rouage un mobile d'inertie de rotation équivalente à celle de la roue d'échappement, tournant à la même vitesse mais dans le sens opposé à celle-ci et qui engrène en permanence avec la roue d'échappement.In short, for the particular case of an escape mechanism, the invention proposes adding to the train of gear a mobile of rotational inertia equivalent to that of the escape wheel, rotating at the same speed but in the opposite direction to it and which meshes permanently with the escape wheel.

Dans un mode de réalisation particulier selon la figure 2, ce mobile d'inertie se situe juste avant la roue d'échappement. L'autre mode selon la figure 1 comporte un mobile d'inertie qui est une roue folle, utilisée en parallèle du train de rouage plutôt qu'en série.In a particular embodiment according to the figure 2 , this mobile inertia is located just before the escape wheel. The other mode according to the figure 1 has a flywheel which is a crazy wheel, used in parallel with the gear train rather than in series.

Il est théoriquement possible de placer le mobile d'inertie plus haut dans le train de rouage, autrement dit plus proche du barillet, mais en pratique l'inertie devrait devenir très grande pour compenser le fait que cette inertie serait rapportée au pignon du mobile d'échappement (et non plus à la roue), et les problèmes de rattrapage de jeu sont alors plus complexes.It is theoretically possible to place the mobile inertia higher in the gear train, ie closer to the barrel, but in practice the inertia should become very large to compensate for the fact that this inertia would be reported at the pinion of the mobile escapement (and no longer at the wheel), and game catch-up problems are then more complex.

L'invention procure, quand l'inertie du mobile distributeur d'énergie est équivalente à l'inertie totale de l'ensemble des mobiles d'inertie associés à celui-ci, une très grande résistance aux accélérations externes, notamment aux accélérations angulaires liées au porté.et de l'ensemble.The invention provides, when the inertia of the mobile energy distributor is equivalent to the total inertia of all the inertial mobiles associated with it, a very high resistance to external accelerations, including angular accelerations related to the wearer and the set.
