Drive device for horology calendar system
Drive device (100), notably for a horology calendar system (200), the drive device including a drive mobile (10) for driving an element (4) that is to be driven, notably a calendar element, the drive mobile being intended to be mounted so that it can rotate about an axis (A1) and including (a) a support (11); (b) a first flank (f11) for driving the element that is to be driven; and (c) a second flank (f12′) arranged in such a way as to receive an action to retract the drive mobile, notably extending orthoradially or substantially orthoradially with respect to the axis (A1); the mobile comprising a slide link (111, 121; 11, 120; 110, 120′) connecting the second flank to the support.
TIMEPIECE CALENDAR SYSTEM
The timepiece calendar system (200) includes a date mobile (4) which is displaceable step by step relative to a frame (199), a first drive finger (21) for driving the date mobile (4). a first tooth (51) for driving the date mobile (4), the first tooth (51) being mounted on the date mobile (4) so as to be displaceable between a deactivated, or retracted, position and an activated, or drive, position, an activation system (6, 7) for activating the first tooth (51); the first drive finger (21) and the first tooth (51) being arranged such that a single action of the first drive finger (21) on the first tooth (51) can displace the date mobile (4) through N steps, N being an integer such that N>1, notably N=2 or N=3.
TIMEPIECE CALENDAR SYSTEM
The timepiece calendar system (200) includes a date mobile (4) displaceable step by step relative to a frame (199); a first drive finger (21) for driving the date mobile (4); a first tooth (51) for driving the date mobile (4), the first tooth (51) being mounted on the date mobile (4) so as to be displaceable between a deactivated, or retracted, position and an activated, or drive, position; an activation system (6, 7) for activating the first tooth (51); the first drive finger (21) and the first tooth (51) being arranged such that a single action of the first drive finger (21) on the first tooth (51) displaces the date mobile (4) through n steps, with n being an integer of any value between 1 and N, N being an integer with N>1, depending on the moment when the first tooth (51) is activated by the activation system (6, 7).
MOVEMENT TRANSMISSION SYSTEM
The movement transmission system (90), notably for a timepiece calendar system (200), includes a driving mobile (4) pivoted about a first axis (A4) and has a driving toothset (42) distributed over a curved profile (43); a driven mobile (7) pivoted about a second axis (A7) and having a driven toothset (72); an intermediate pinion (8) pivoted about a third axis (A8) and having a toothset (81) driven by the driving toothset (42) and driving the driven toothset (72); the toothset (42), the curved profile (43), the driven toothset (72) and the toothset (81) being arranged at a same level or in a same plane, and the driving mobile (4), the driven mobile (7) and the intermediate pinion (8) being arranged so that the driving mobile (4) moves the driven mobile (7) via the intermediate pinion (8) through 1/m steps for at least some steps of the driving mobile (4), m being a real number greater than 1, and so that the driving mobile (4) can define an angular position, with minimum play, of the driven mobile (7) via the pinion (8), whereas the driving mobile (4) is in a given angular position.
INDICATOR DEVICE FOR WATCHMAKING
The invention relates to an indicator device (D) for watchmaking, in which a drive toothed wheel (3) rotates a driven programme wheel (2) which is configured substantially as a circular crown with an external toothing (20) and an internal toothing (21). The latter meshes with an eccentric internal toothed wheel (1), whose cycloidal rotary movement with a suitable transmission ratio, allows the information given on the programme wheel (2) to be indicated. The device is suitable for making perpetual calendars of the clocks.
Calendar mechanism for a timepiece
A calendar mechanism for a timepiece suitable for indicating a piece of information having a period that varies according to at least a first cycle and a second cycle is provided. The mechanism, inter alia, is a system for actuating a lever, in which the actuating system includes a first feeler-spindle intended to come into contact with the first cam and a second feeler-spindle intended to come into contact with the second cam the feeler-spindles being kinematically linked with each other and the actuating system being arranged to move the lever from the inactive position to the active position under the control of each of the cams.
Horology calendar system
A horology calendar system (200) including:a date wheel (1);a month cam (300); anda kinematic connection element (8) arranged so that the date wheel allows the driving of the motion of the month cam. Optionally, the kinematic connection element is arranged so as to allow the driving of the month cam by at most 1/n of a step while the date wheel is driven by one step, where n is a natural integer greater than 1.
CLOCK CALENDAR MOBILE
A calendar mobile (10) indicating time information or information derived from the time, comprising at least one first obstacle element (1a, 2a, 3a) intended to receive a driving contact action driving the calendar mobile and/or intended to transmit a driving contact action from the calendar mobile, the first obstacle element being made of titanium or of titanium alloy, the mobile being a disk or the mobile having substantially the shape of a disk or the mobile having substantially the shape of a disk ring.
DRIVE DEVICE FOR HOROLOGY CALENDAR SYSTEM
Drive device (100), notably for a horology calendar system (200), the drive device comprising a drive mobile (10) for driving an element (4) that is to be driven, notably a calendar element, the drive mobile being intended to be mounted so that it can rotate about an axis (A1) and comprising (a) a support (11); (b) a first flank (f11) for driving the element that is to be driven; and (c) a second flank (f12) arranged in such a way as to receive an action to retract the drive mobile, notably extending orthoradially or substantially orthoradially with respect to the axis (A1); the mobile comprising a slide link (111, 121; 11, 120; 110, 120) connecting the second flank to the support.
