Definitions
- the present invention relates to an electric timing bench comprising at least one chronograph provided with at least two order, in particular a wristwatch chronograph watch with pushers ordered.
- the invention also relates to a control box usable in such a bench.
- timing benches controlled remotely by electrical timing comprising optical sensors, pressure or other similar devices.
- these timing benches are complex devices, provided with recording and processing means data, quite bulky and expensive. An amateur sportsman cannot therefore generally not have it for private use or for training daily and must be content to use his wrist chronograph.
- Swiss Patent No. 49005 describes a box of control unit provided with a support for a pocket chronograph and a device for electric battery, electromagnets and levers to press one or two pushers chronograph on receipt of the corresponding electrical signals.
- Swiss Patent No. 49005 describes a box of control unit provided with a support for a pocket chronograph and a device for electric battery, electromagnets and levers to press one or two pushers chronograph on receipt of the corresponding electrical signals.
- he it is a rudimentary installation which offers few functionalities and does not allow, for example, to measure several successive times or times of several competitors as in a current timing bench.
- US Patent 3,596,103 describes a multiple timing installation comprising a row of detection cells which are each associated with a hallway of an athletics track and a respective chronograph controlled by electromechanical means. It is a fixed and heavy installation which is not at the scope of an amateur sportsman. The same goes for the complex installation described schematically in patent DE 317 995.
- the present invention aims to remedy these drawbacks by creating a bench precise, versatile, space-saving and inexpensive electrical timing to be usable without difficulty by any amateur, especially in the outdoor or indoor sports, and capable of performing measurements time according to different modes or from different signals.
- a basic idea of the invention consists in designing a simple and inexpensive control box, offering the possibility of creating a timing bench as mentioned above, containing any number of chronographs that can work simultaneously in different modes.
- a automatic electric timing bench as defined in claim 1.
- the housing of the or each control box can advantageously be designed to receive a wrist chronograph of a common type, the organs of which controls are side lifters.
- a user can use his chronograph watch usual, which he simply places in the control box connected to one or more electrical timing cells. Once the device is switched on, timing can be done automatically without manual intervention.
- a standard chronograph-bracelet and to connect the box to at least one electrical timing cell for constitute an automatic timing bench, if necessary with several these boxes connected to each other and containing several chronographs.
- a box can constitute a packaging for the chronograph.
- control box 1 is intended for contain and activate a wrist chronograph 2 of a common type, comprising a watch case 3 and a flexible bracelet with two strands 4 and 5.
- Chronograph 2 is preferably quartz; it includes display elements 6 which are analog in in this case, a time setting crown 7 and two pushers 8 and 9 for the timing.
- a first press on the pusher 8 puts start timing (START function), press the button again push-button 8 stops timing (STOP function), a first press on the push-button 9 when the timing is running stops the display elements for allow the reading of a time intermediate (LAP function), a subsequent press on pusher 9 produces an adjustment of the display for continue to indicate the timed time, and press on push-button 9 after stopping the timing resets to zero counters and display devices chronograph correspondents.
- the chronograph 2 may also include one or more other buttons to control special functions, in a known manner.
- the control box 1 comprises a body 11 in molded synthetic material having, in its face upper, a housing 12 arranged to receive the chronograph 2.
- the housing 12 includes a part enlarged 13, in which the case 3 of the chronograph 2 is laterally wedged by means of a pad 14, and two narrower parts 15 and 16 in which are housed strands 4 and 5 of the bracelet.
- Housing 12 is closed on the top by a cover 17 articulated by hinges 18 on the body 11 of the box 1, this cover leaving see at least the display members 6 of the chronograph 2.
- the cover 17 is made of a transparent synthetic material and it has, above display elements 6, a magnifying glass part 19 making it easier to read the times displayed.
- the cover 17 protects chronograph 2 and keeps it in its housing 12 as well when using the bench timing only for packaging, storage, sale and transport of the whole.
- the body 11 of the box 1 defines a cavity 21 intended to contain electrical components.
- This cavity is closed by a removable bottom 22 fixed by screws to pillars 23 which also support a circuit printed 24 in the cavity 21.
- the box of control 1 has a side face 26, the part of which central 27 is convex, while its lateral face opposite 28 to a concave central part 29 of shape complementary to the convex part 27.
- Control boxes 1 and 1 ' may include attachment means such as Velcro straps, to fix them together to others.
- an end face 30 of the control box 1 is equipped with five inlet or outlet fittings, in the occurrence five electrical outlets 31 to 35 which are connected to the printed circuit 24.
- the socket 31 is a power input, intended to receive a connector bipolar 36 of a low voltage power cable 37.
- the two sockets 34 and 35 are inputs intended for receive, by cables 38 and 39 fitted with connectors 40 and 41, electrical input signals from two separate timing cells, for example one starting cell connected to socket 34 and a cell intermediate or arrival, connected to socket 35.
- the two sockets 32 and 33 are each intended to receive a multipolar connector 42, for example with four poles, of a cable 43 connecting in cascade the control box 1 to another identical box 1 'to transmit the input signals received on sockets 34 and 35.
- the respective chronographs of the boxes thus coupled can work in combination, for example in using the same signals in different ways.
- the cavity 21 also contains two electromagnets 51 and 52 acting in the direction of their axes respective longitudinal 53 and 54 to press the pushbuttons 8 and 9 of chronograph 2.
- the movable axial rod 55 of each electromagnet is provided with a protective cap 56 capable of lean against the pusher without damaging it.
- Both electromagnets are fixed by screws 57 to a plate of support 58 mounted in the cavity 21. Their supply is controlled by elements of the printed circuit 24 in function of the input signals received by one of the sockets 32 to 35 and depending on an operating mode selected from the timing bench.
- the upper face of the control box 1 has in addition, next to the cover 17, an acoustic generator 60, a display time selector button 61, a button mode selector 62 and a reset push button zero 63.
- the acoustic generator 60 for example of the type piezoelectric, emits sound signals giving receipt of manual actuation of buttons 61 to 63.
- Resetting the chronograph is locked in NORM and LAP modes. It takes place manually by pressing button 63 when the device is in OFF mode. The electromagnet 52 presses then push button 9.
- the timing bench according to the invention can comprise a single control box 1 containing a chronograph 2, or more of these boxes of order, containing any number of chronographs, and that these chronographs can work simultaneously in different modes and depending on signals input from different cells in timing.
- a first control box 1 can be coupled to a starting cell and a arrival cell and operate in normal mode.
- a third control box can be connected to the second, to receive the start signal, and to a third cell to measure either another intermediate time (in LAP mode), i.e. another time final.
- the bench timing comprising one or more chronographs
- the bench works automatically as soon as we have selected the operating mode (s). It is therefore can be used reliably and precisely by anyone which person, even if the user is alone and times his own performances.
- control box 1 is an object of small dimensions, determined above all by those of the chronograph 2. It is therefore light, compact and can be carried in a garment pocket.
- This box constitutes an excellent protective packaging for the chronograph and can be used advantageously for the packaging and sale thereof.
- this control box composed of simple and inexpensive elements, can be produced at low cost and acquired by any amateur. This can be used with a wrist chronograph that he already has and that he wears on his wrist in life common.
- the present invention may extend to other modes of chronograph activation by the box command, if these two elements are constructed of appropriately.
- the pushers could constitute electrical contacts cooperating with control box contacts for receiving actuation pulses.
- the transmission of such pulses between the order and the chronograph could be done by infrared radiation, radio waves or a electromagnetic system. Modes of transmission similar are usable between the cells of timing and the control unit (s).

Description
- la figure 1 est une vue générale en perspective d'une boíte de commande selon l'invention,
- la figure 2 est une vue de dessus d'un banc de chronométrage électrique selon l'invention, comportant au moins une boíte de commande telle que représentée à la figure 1, dans laquelle est placé un chronographe-bracelet de type courant à deux poussoirs,
- la figure 3 est une vue simplifiée en coupe longitudinale du banc de chronométrage de la figure 2,
- la figure 4 est une vue d'une extrémité de la boíte de commande, suivant la flèche IV de la figure 2,
- la figure 5 est une vue en coupe transversale suivant la ligne V-V de la figure 2, à une échelle agrandie, et
- la figure 6 est une vue en coupe transversale suivant la ligne VI-VI de la figure 2, à une échelle agrandie.
- Dans le mode OFF, les signaux d'entrée sont verrouillés. Cependant ils peuvent être transmis entre les prises 32 à 35 pour passer d'une boíte de commande à une autre.
- Dans le mode normal NORM, un signal d'entrée sur la prise 34 produit la fonction START, par action de l'électro-aimant 51 sur le poussoir 8, et un signal d'entrée sur la prise 35 produit la fonction STOP, par action sur le même poussoir.
- Le mode LAP sert à mesurer et afficher des temps intermédiaires lorsque le chronographe est en marche. Un premier signal d'entrée sur la prise 34 produit la fonction START en pressant sur le poussoir 8, puis un deuxième signal d'entrée sur la prise 35 produit l'affichage d'un temps intermédiaire par pression sur l'autre poussoir 9 par l'électo-aimant 52. Ce temps reste affiché pendant une durée définie par l'utilisateur au moyen du sélecteur 61 (4 s, 8 s ou 16 s dans l'exemple représenté), puis l'appareil effectue automatiquement une deuxième pression sur le poussoir 9 pour continuer l'affichage du temps chronométré. Dans ce mode, la fonction STOP ne peut pas être effectuée; l'utilisateur doit d'abord sélectionner le mode normal.
