Ainsi, à titre d'exemple, avantageusement l'invention, le système de correction 10, 12 expliqué ci-dessous, peut également être appliqué à un système de mesure affichant des données non horaires comme l'altitude, c'est-à-dire la profondeur sous l'eau ou la hauteur au-dessus de l'eau, ou même la température.As explained above, the measurement system 11, 13 cannot be limited to a system displaying hourly or calendar information. Thus, by way of example, advantageously of the invention, the correction system 10, 12 explained below, can also be applied to a measurement system displaying non-hourly data such as altitude, that is to say. say depth underwater or height above water, or even temperature.

A titre d'exemple, le mécanisme 21 peut comporter un mouvement 5 du type horloger, c'est-à-dire qui comporte un système de mesure du temps 11 destiné à afficher l'heure 2 et un système de calendrier 13 relié au système de mesure du temps 11 et destiné à afficher une valeur de calendrier. Le système de mesure du temps 11 est destiné à entraîner les parties mobiles de l'affichage 2 de l'heure. Dans l'exemple illustré aux figures 1 et 2, la pièce mécanique 1 est une pièce d'horlogerie. Le système d'affichage 9 de la pièce d'horlogerie 1 comporte un affichage 2 de l'heure du type aiguille mobile 4, 6, 8 et tour d'heures. Le système de mesure du temps 11 comporte également un système de correction 10 autorisant la modification desdites parties mobiles 4, 6 de l'affichage 2 par actionnement de l'organe de commande 7.By way of example, the mechanism 21 may include a movement 5 of the horological type, that is to say which comprises a time measuring system 11 intended to display the hour 2 and a calendar system 13 connected to the system. measuring time 11 and intended to display a calendar value. The time measuring system 11 is intended to drive the moving parts of the time display 2. In the example shown in figures 1 and 2 , the mechanical part 1 is a timepiece. The display system 9 of the timepiece 1 comprises a display 2 of the time of the movable hand 4, 6, 8 and hour circle type. The time measuring system 11 also comprises a correction system 10 allowing the modification of said moving parts 4, 6 of the display 2 by actuation of the control member 7.

Le système de calendrier 13 est destiné à entraîner les parties mobiles de l'affichage 14 du calendrier. Dans l'exemple illustré aux figures 1 et 2, le système d'affichage 9 de la pièce d'horlogerie 1 comporte un affichage 14 du calendrier du type aiguille mobile 15, 16, 17, 18 et/ou disque 19 au travers d'un guichet 20. Le système de calendrier 13 comporte également un système de correction 12 autorisant la modification desdites parties mobiles 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 de l'affichage 14 par actionnement également de l'organe de commande 7 ou par un autre organe de correction dédié. Préférentiellement, l'organe de commande 7 permet de commander les deux systèmes de correction 10 et 12 du mouvement 5.The calendar system 13 is intended to drive the moving parts of the display 14 of the calendar. In the example shown in figures 1 and 2 , the display system 9 of the timepiece 1 comprises a display 14 of the calendar of the movable needle 15, 16, 17, 18 and / or disc 19 type through a window 20. The calendar system 13 comprises also a correction system 12 allowing the modification of said movable parts 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 of the display 14 also by actuation of the control member 7 or by another dedicated correction member. Preferably, the control member 7 makes it possible to control the two correction systems 10 and 12 of the movement 5.

Avantageusement selon l'invention, le système de calendrier 13 et/ou de mesure du temps 11 peuvent comporter indifféremment un affichage 2, 14 du type traînant, instantané ou semi-instantané. A titre nullement limitatif, le système de calendrier 13 permet d'afficher, par une aiguille 15, le jour, par une aiguille 16, le quantième, par une aiguille 17, le mois, par une aiguille 18, le type d'année (bissextile ou année 1, 2 ou 3), par un disque 19, la phase de lune.Advantageously according to the invention, the calendar 13 and / or time measuring system 11 can equally well comprise a display 2, 14 of the trailing, instantaneous or semi-instantaneous type. In no way limiting, the calendar system 13 makes it possible to display, by a hand 15, the day, by a hand 16, the date, by a hand 17, the month, by a hand 18, the type of year ( leap year or year 1, 2 or 3), by a disc 19, the moon phase.

De plus, préférentiellement, le système de calendrier 13 comporte un système de correction 12 expliqué ci-après. Toutefois, il est parfaitement applicable au système de correction 10 du système de mesure du temps 11 ou à un autre système de mesure d'une information horaire ou non.In addition, preferably, the calendar system 13 comprises a correction system 12 explained below. However, it is perfectly applicable to the correction system 10 of the time measuring system 11 or to another system for measuring time information or not.

Avantageusement selon l'invention, le dispositif de correction rapide 12 permet de modifier l'affichage 14, préférentiellement selon un pas prédéterminé comme par exemple de 12 ou 24h, et à n'importe quel moment de la journée, c'est-à-dire y compris vers minuit, tout en maintenant le rapport du déplacement du calendrier par rapport à celui de l'heure lors de la manœuvre de correction, c'est-à-dire la liaison du système d'affichage 9 avec le système de calendrier 13 ou de mesure 11.Advantageously according to the invention, the rapid correction device 12 makes it possible to modify the display 14, preferably according to a predetermined step such as for example 12 or 24 hours, and at any time of the day, that is to say. say including around midnight, while maintaining the ratio of the movement of the calendar to that of the hour during the correction maneuver, that is to say the connection of the display system 9 with the calendar system 13 or measure 11.

A titre nullement limitatif, un système de correction 12 selon l'invention est présenté aux figures 3 à 7. On comprend donc que l'exemple de système de correction 12 des figures 3 à 7, qui s'applique à l'affichage d'une phase de lune 19 à l'aide d'un disque, peut également s'appliquer respectivement à l'affichage d'une autre information horaire ou non, selon un autre type de pas prédéterminé et selon un autre type d'afficheur.In no way limiting, a correction system 12 according to the invention is presented in figures 3 to 7 . It is therefore understood that the example of a correction system 12 of the figures 3 to 7 , which applies to the display of a moon phase 19 using a disc, can also apply respectively to the display of other time information or not, according to another type of step predetermined and according to another type of display.

Préférentiellement selon l'invention, le système de correction 12 comporte un mobile de correction 23 relié au système d'affichage 9 formé par le disque de phase de lune 19. Comme mieux illustré aux figures 6 et 7, le mobile de correction 23 est formé par une roue de correction 22 fixée à une étoile 24 elle-même ajustée sur un pignon 26. Comme visible aux figures 3 et 4, la roue de correction 22 s'engrène à un renvoi 28 entraîné par l'organe de commande 7 lors des phases de correction.Preferably according to the invention, the correction system 12 comprises a correction mobile 23 connected to the display system 9 formed by the moon phase disc 19. As best illustrated in figures 6 and 7 , the correction mobile 23 is formed by a correction wheel 22 fixed to a star 24 itself adjusted on a pinion 26. As can be seen in figures 3 and 4 , the correction wheel 22 engages a return 28 driven by the control member 7 during the correction phases.

Le système de correction 12 comporte en outre une roue motrice 25 montée folle sur le mobile de correction 23. De plus, comme suggéré aux figures 3 et 4, la roue motrice 25 comporte une denture périphérique s'engrenant avec des renvois 30 à la roue de 24 heures 27 du système de calendrier 13. On comprend donc que la roue motrice 25 est reliée en permanence au système de calendrier 13. Le dispositif de correction 12 évite donc de découpler le système de calendrier 13 par rapport à celui de mesure de l'heure 11 ce qui permet d'éviter le décalage de l'avancée de la phase de lune 19 de l'affichage 14 par rapport aux aiguilles 4, 6 de l'affichage 2. Par conséquent, avantageusement selon l'invention, le dispositif d'affichage 9 est toujours synchronisé.The correction system 12 further comprises a drive wheel 25 mounted idly on the correction mobile 23. Furthermore, as suggested to figures 3 and 4 , the driving wheel 25 comprises a peripheral toothing meshing with references 30 to the 24 hour wheel 27 of the calendar system 13. It is therefore understood that the driving wheel 25 is permanently connected to the calendar system 13. The control device correction 12 therefore avoids decoupling the calendar system 13 from that for measuring the time 11 which makes it possible to avoid the shifting of the advance of the moon phase 19 of the display 14 with respect to the hands 4, 6 of the display 2. Consequently, advantageously according to the invention, the display device 9 is always synchronized.

Enfin, le système de correction 12 comporte des moyens de couplage élastique 29 entre le mobile de correction 23 et la roue motrice 25 afin que le système d'affichage 9 puisse être déplacé soit par le système de calendrier 13 soit par le système de correction 12 sans induire de contraintes au système de calendrier 13.Finally, the correction system 12 comprises elastic coupling means 29 between the correction mobile 23 and the drive wheel 25 so that the display system 9 can be moved either by the calendar system 13 or by the correction system 12. without inducing constraints on the calendar system 13.

Plus précisément, les moyens de couplage élastique 29 comportent deux butées 31, 33 plaquées contre la denture de l'étoile 24 du mobile de correction 23 par deux lames élastiques 32, 34. Comme visible à l'exemple de la figure 7, les lames élastiques 32, 34 peuvent être cintrées et chacune relier les deux butées 31, 33 de part et d'autre afin de former une pièce monobloc sensiblement annulaire.More precisely, the elastic coupling means 29 comprise two stops 31, 33 pressed against the toothing of the star 24 of the correction mobile 23 by two elastic blades 32, 34. As can be seen from the example of figure 7 , the elastic blades 32, 34 can be bent and each connect the two stops 31, 33 on either side to form a substantially annular one-piece part.

De plus, chaque butée 31, 33 comporte un coulisseau 35, 37 coopérant avec une coulisse 36, 38 aménagée dans l'épaisseur de la roue motrice 25 afin de guider le déplacement des moyens de couplage élastique 29 et transmettre le mouvement de la roue motrice 25 au système d'affichage 14.In addition, each stop 31, 33 comprises a slide 35, 37 cooperating with a slide 36, 38 formed in the thickness of the driving wheel 25 in order to guide the movement of the elastic coupling means 29 and transmit the movement of the driving wheel. 25 to the display system 14.

Selon un mode de réalisation préféré, le système de correction rapide 12 comporte en outre un dispositif de réduction 39 couplé au mobile de correction 23 afin d'avoir une précision suffisante pour corriger une phase de lune. Comme visible aux figures 6 et 7, le dispositif de réduction 39 est du type à train épicycloïdal. Le pignon 26 du mobile de correction 23 forme ainsi le planétaire interne. Deux satellites 40, 42 sont montés pivotant sur un porte-satellite 41 solidaire du disque de phase de lune 19. Les deux satellites 40, 42 s'engrènent entre le pignon 26 et un planétaire externe 43 solidaire d'un élément fixe du mécanisme 21.According to a preferred embodiment, the rapid correction system 12 further comprises a reduction device 39 coupled to the correction mobile 23 in order to have sufficient precision to correct a moon phase. As visible to figures 6 and 7 , the reduction device 39 is of the epicyclic gear type. The pinion 26 of the correction mobile 23 thus forms the internal sun gear. Two planet wheels 40, 42 are mounted to pivot on a planet carrier 41 secured to the moon phase disc 19. The two planet wheels 40, 42 mesh between the pinion 26 and an external sun gear 43 secured to a fixed element of the mechanism 21 .

Le fonctionnement du système de calendrier 13 va maintenant être expliqué. Le système de calendrier 13 fonctionne selon deux modes pouvant avantageusement fonctionner ensemble. Un premier mode d'affichage du calendrier qui est permanent et un deuxième mode de correction de l'affichage du calendrier qui peut fonctionner en même temps. Dans les deux modes, il est important de noter que les systèmes de calendrier 13 et de mesure du temps 11 sont reliés en permanence afin de garder un rapport constant entre le déplacement continu entre l'affichage 14 du calendrier par rapport à l'affichage 2 de l'heure y compris lors du passage en mode de correction.The operation of the calendar system 13 will now be explained. The calendar system 13 operates in two modes which can advantageously work together. A first calendar display mode which is permanent and a second calendar display correction mode which can operate at the same time. In both modes, it is important to note that the calendar 13 and time measuring 11 systems are permanently linked in order to keep a constant ratio between the continuous displacement between display 14 of the calendar relative to display 2 time including when switching to correction mode.

En mode d'affichage, le système de mesure du temps 11 fournit l'information du temps écoulé au système de calendrier 13 qui entraîne la roue des 24 heures 27 à raison d'un tour par jour. Les deux butées 31, 33 étant plaquées par les deux lames élastiques 32, 34 contre la denture de l'étoile 24 du mobile de correction 23, la roue motrice 25 entraîne donc à rotation l'ensemble mobile de correction 23 - moyens de couplage élastique 29 via les renvois 30.In display mode, the time measuring system 11 supplies the elapsed time information to the calendar system 13 which drives the 24 hour wheel 27 at the rate of one revolution per day. The two stops 31, 33 being pressed by the two elastic blades 32, 34 against the toothing of the star 24 of the correction mobile 23, the drive wheel 25 therefore rotates the mobile correction assembly 23 - elastic coupling means 29 via referrals 30.

En effet, chaque coulisse 36, 38 aménagée dans l'épaisseur de la roue motrice 25 oblige chaque coulisseau 35, 37 associé, à imprimer le même mouvement de rotation, et, incidemment par son étoile 24, le mobile de correction 23, pour finalement transmettre le mouvement au système d'affichage 9 via le dispositif de réduction 39. Le disque de phase de lune 19 étant solidaire du porte-satellite 41, il effectue la rotation continue en indiquant l'avancée de lunaison.Indeed, each slide 36, 38 arranged in the thickness of the driving wheel 25 forces each associated slide 35, 37 to print the same rotational movement, and, incidentally by its star 24, the correction wheel 23, to finally transmitting the movement to the display system 9 via the reduction device 39. The moon phase disc 19 being integral with the planet carrier 41, it performs continuous rotation indicating the advance of the lunation.

Pour passer en mode de correction, l'organe de commande 7 est actionné afin d'agir sur le système de correction 12. L'organe de commande 7 va alors actionner le renvoi 28. Le déplacement de ce dernier transmis par le roue de correction 22 puis l'étoile 24 va forcer les moyens de couplage élastique 29 et notamment ses butées 31, 33 à s'écarter afin d'autoriser un mouvement relatif entre l'étoile 24 et la roue motrice 25 dans le but de corriger l'affichage 14 solidaires du pignon 26 sans influencer la rotation continue de la roue motrice 25 du mode d'affichage. Avantageusement, on comprend donc que l'écartement de chaque butée 31, 33 est guidé par le glissement de son coulisseau 35, 37 dans sa coulisse 36, 38 associée.To switch to correction mode, the control member 7 is actuated in order to act on the correction system 12. The control member 7 will then actuate the return 28. The movement of the latter transmitted by the correction wheel 22 then the star 24 will force the elastic coupling means 29 and in particular its stops 31, 33 to move away in order to allow a relative movement between the star 24 and the driving wheel 25 in order to correcting the display 14 integral with the pinion 26 without influencing the continuous rotation of the drive wheel 25 of the display mode. Advantageously, it is therefore understood that the spacing of each stop 31, 33 is guided by the sliding of its slide 35, 37 in its associated slide 36, 38.

Comme expliqué ci-dessus, de manière avantageuse, suivant le nombre de dents de l'étoile 24, chaque dent passée par moyens de couplage élastique 29 permet de corriger selon un pas prédéterminé. Ainsi, la combinaison des 12 dents de l'étoile 24 dans l'exemple de la figure 7 avec le dispositif de réduction 39 permet d'effectuer un pas de 24 heures de l'affichage 14. Puis par inhibition de l'organe de commande 7, les moyens de couplage élastique 29 permettent de recaler élastiquement l'orientation du mobile de correction 23 par rapport à celle de la roue motrice 25.As explained above, advantageously, depending on the number of teeth of star 24, each tooth passed through elastic coupling means 29 makes it possible to correct according to a predetermined pitch. Thus, the combination of the 12 teeth of star 24 in the example of figure 7 with the reduction device 39 makes it possible to perform a 24 hour step of the display 14. Then by inhibiting the control member 7, the elastic coupling means 29 make it possible to elastically reset the orientation of the correction mobile 23 compared to that of the driving wheel 25.

Par conséquent, avantageusement selon l'invention, dans l'exemple de l'affichage d'une phase de lune 19, suivant le nombre de dents de l'étoile 24, il est possible de corriger plus simplement l'affichage, selon un pas de 12 heures ou de 24 heures, en un seul pas de correction alors que la phase de lune possède un cycle de 29,53 jours.Consequently, advantageously according to the invention, in the example of the display of a moon phase 19, depending on the number of teeth of the star 24, it is possible to correct the display more simply, according to a step of 12 hours or 24 hours, in a single correction step while the moon phase has a cycle of 29.53 days.

Bien entendu, la présente invention ne se limite pas à l'exemple illustré mais est susceptible de diverses variantes et modifications qui apparaîtront à l'homme de l'art. En particulier, l'affichage 2, 14 de l'information horaire ou calendaire ne saurait se limiter à une aiguille ou un disque. A titre d'exemple, l'affichage pourrait être du type à tambour.Of course, the present invention is not limited to the example illustrated but is susceptible of various variants and modifications which will appear to those skilled in the art. In particular, the display 2, 14 of the time or calendar information cannot be limited to a hand or a disc. By way of example, the display could be of the drum type.

Il est également envisageable que l'étoile 24 et/ou que le dispositif de réduction 39 soit modifié afin d'effectuer une autre valeur pas de l'affichage 14 que l'information soit horaire ou non.It is also conceivable that the star 24 and / or that the reduction device 39 is modified in order to perform another value not of the display 14 whether the information is hourly or not.

De même, l'organe de commande 7 du système de correction 12 peut ne pas être le même que pour le dispositif de correction 10 du système de mesure du temps 11 et peut, de manière équivalente, être un poussoir ou une couronne.Likewise, the control member 7 of the correction system 12 may not be the same as for the correction device 10 of the time measuring system 11 and may, in an equivalent manner, be a pusher or a crown.

La figure 7 montre des coulisses 36, 38 qui sont aménagées dans l'épaisseur de la roue motrice 25 afin de diminuer l'épaisseur dudit mécanisme. Toutefois, il est également possible de prévoir que ces coulisses 36, 38 soient solidaires de la roue motrice 25, c'est-à-dire que les coulisses 36, 38 soient rapportées en saillie et fixées sur la face supérieure de la roue motrice 25.The figure 7 shows slides 36, 38 which are arranged in the thickness of the driving wheel 25 in order to reduce the thickness of said mechanism. However, it is also possible to provide that these slides 36, 38 are integral with the driving wheel 25, that is to say that the slides 36, 38 are reported projecting and fixed on the upper face of the driving wheel 25. .

Enfin, le dispositif de réduction 39 ne saurait se limiter à un engrenage du type épicycloïdal ou même l'utilisation de deux satellites 40, 42. En effet, le dispositif de réduction 39 pourrait ne comporter qu'un unique satellite ou plus de deux satellites. De plus, il est parfaitement possible de remplacer l'engrenage du type épicycloïdal par un engrenage plus classique utilisant au moins un ensemble roue - pignon. On s'aperçoit alors que le pignon 26 pourrait être directement solidaire de l'affichage 14 et que le renvoi 28 pourrait devenir le dispositif de réduction qui autorise une correction selon un pas prédéterminé de l'affichage 14 à chaque mouvement relatif entre l'étoile 24 et la roue motrice 25.Finally, the reduction device 39 could not be limited to a gear of the epicyclic type or even the use of two satellites 40, 42. Indeed, the reduction device 39 could include only a single satellite or more than two satellites. . In addition, it is perfectly possible to replace the epicyclic type gear with a more conventional gear using at least one wheel-pinion assembly. We then see that the pinion 26 could be directly secured to the display 14 and that the return 28 could become the reduction device which allows a correction according to a predetermined pitch of the display 14 at each relative movement between the star 24 and the drive wheel 25.
