Abstract:
Mechanische Weltzeituhr mit einem Uebertragungsmechanismus, welcher es ermöglicht, mit einem Drehring mit 24 Zeitzonen direkt die Zeitanzeige zu verstellen wie zum Beispiel einen 12-Stundenzeiger und/oder einen 24-Stundenzeiger. Die Uhr dient zum handlichen Verstellen der Zeitzone bzw. zum Ablesen der Zeit in einer anderen Zeitzone. Die Bedienung könnte nicht einfacher sein. Nach dem Oeffnen eines Hebels kuppelt sich der Mechanismus in Fig. 1 automatisch ein. Der mit dem Drehring fixierte Zahnkranz (6) treibt ein vertikales Antriebsrad (5) an, welches mit einem Kupplungsrad (4) über eine Welle verbunden ist. Wenn der Trieb (4) eingekuppelt ist, treibt er eine oder zwei Minuterien an (8, 9), welche ein 12-Stundenrad (10) und ein 24-Stundenrad (11) im 1h-Rhythmus bewegen. Der Drehring wird somit einfach auf die gewünschte Destination bei 12h gedreht und man kann sofort die lokale Zeit ablesen. Entweder wird der Drehring nun wieder auf seinen Ausgangsort gedreht oder der Hebel wird einfach verschlossen. Im zweiten Fall läuft die Zeit nun weiter gemäss der eingestellten Destination. Der Drücker (2) kuppelt über eine Wippe (3) den Mechanismus aus, fixiert im geschlossenen Zustand gleichzeitig den Zahnkranz (6) und verhindert ein unabsichtliches Verstellen der Zeit. Der Uebertragungsmechanismus kann auch für das Einstellen oder Aendern von anderen Zeitanzeigen verwendet werden wie Datum, Wochentag, Monat, Jahr, Minuten oder für andere Funktionen wie ein Wecker verwendet werden.
Abstract:
The watch case (1) is monobloc and, from the bottom thereof, are arranged successively the module (3), the casing clamp (6), the module holding ring (7), the dial (10) and the glass (9). The glass (9) and the dial (10) are emprisoned together in a flexible rubber joint (11) which bears on the ring (7). The joint (11) is specially molded according to the shape of a clamping ring (12) wherein the joint is mounted, and said ring (12) is force-fitted in a groove (13) of the casing (1). The adjustment of the watch is obtained by pressing the glass (2) with the finger in areas corresponding to axes (15) integral with the lower face of the dial (10) so that the axes (15) engage the casing clamp (6) forming contact.
Abstract:
A watch case for an analog watch movement has a housing and a setting ring in a rotateably moveable and axially slideable relationship. The setting ring is coupled with a setting stem of the analog watch for rotation of the setting stem by means of rotation of the setting ring and for axial movement of the setting stem by means of orthogonal axial movement of the setting ring.
Abstract:
Reloj que comprende una máquina, una tapa que proporciona apoyo a dicha máquina, y una carrura que rodea dicha máquina. Durante la etapa de puesta en hora, la máquina es solidaria a la tapa del reloj y el conjunto formado por ambas está montado giratorio respecto a la carrura, de manera que al menos una aguja del reloj se puede poner en hora haciendo girar dicho conjunto, con respecto a la carrura, en un primer sentido de giro. El reloj comprende medios de bloqueo para bloquear con respecto a la carrura al menos una aguja del reloj cuando dicho conjunto se hace girar, con respecto a la carrura, en un segundo sentido de giro opuesto al primer sentido de giro. Esta disposición permite poner en hora una aguja girando la máquina en un sentido, y poner en hora la otra aguja, sin desplazar la anterior, al girar la máquina en sentido opuesto.

Le dispositif est agencé pour permettre la visualisation par l'utilisateur desdits moyens d'affichage (106) de ladite montre pendant leur réglage.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a control device for a watch case comprising a case middle delimiting an inner volume in which a movement is located, with the device comprising a mobile-mounted rotary bezel on the case middle and a transmission component comprising: a mobile-mounted rotating stem in a hole traversing the case middle, with a first cam located within the inner volume of the securely mounted case middle rotating at the tip of the stem, and acting in unison with a control lever mounted on the movement when the transmission component turns and a second cam located on the outside of the volume, securely mounted and rotating with the other extremity of the stem, and comprising at least one support surface. The case middle comprises yet another contact surface designed to act in unison with the support surface when the case middle turns, so that it includes the transmission component in the rotation. The control device also contains a return spring acting on the case middle.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a watch case comprising: a middle (10), a rotary bezel (14-2) outside said middle, said rotary bezel comprising at least a magnetic portion (2), a member inside said middle, designed to be controlled by the magnetic field of said magnetic portion, said member (11) including a ring concentric (4) to said rotary bezel and provided with at least a magnetic portion, so as to be driven in rotation by the magnetic field of said rotary bezel during its rotation, and wherein said member is of the analog type and can take up an infinite number of different positions depending on the angular position of the rotary bezel.
Abstract:
This invention features a watch which consists of a rotating bezel (8) with a ring-shaped part (8a) projecting from its lower surface and with a serrated edge at the end (8b). This ring-shaped part (8a) is fitted into an indentation (7) in the rim (3) and its toothed part meshes with a pinion (16) with an axial aperture of square cross-section fitting onto a segment (15a) of complementary cross-section on the winding stem (15). The pinion (16) is located in a case (14) open laterally on the external surface of the rim (3) and maintained in this case (14) by a shutting device (17). The winding stem (15) can be axially moved between at least two positions while remaining constantly meshed with the rotating bezel (8) by means of the pinion (16) allowing the rewinding or setting of the watch by rotating the bezel (8).
Abstract:
A micro push-button assembly includes a pin which has a head, a shoulder, a neck and a chamfer at the distal end. Other elements include a spring, a washer, and a seal. This unitized push-button assembly has two opposing ends each with distinct functionalities. One end of the assembly includes means extending above the head for press-in captivation with an exterior button while the other end has means for press in captivation with a support member such as a wrist watch chassis. The assembly is provided to the watch manufacturer as a pre-assembled unit with the spring and seal already set onto the operating pin. The final press-fit assembly can be accomplished by hand.
