Timepiece comprising a chiming device

摘要

A timepiece comprises a chiming device including at least one pivoting toothed sector called rack (1) intended to cooperate with at least one first part (2), driving a second part (3) secured to a pin (32) cooperating with an eccentric (41) for actuating at least one hammer (4) characterized in that the hammer (4) chimes a gong (5) extending substantially in a plane A by being displaced along a plane B which intercepts the plane A of the gong (5).

1. Timepiece comprising a geometric centre comprising a chiming device comprising a hammer actuating device, this device comprising at least one pivoting toothed sector known as a rack (1) intended to cooperate with at least one first component (2), the said first component driving a second component (3) secured to a pin (32) cooperating with a third component (41) to actuate at least one hammer (4) which is designed to strike a chime (5) extending substantially in a plane A and moving in a plane B that intercepts the plane A of the chime (5),
characterized in that it comprises
two hammers (4) arranged parallel to one another and distributed in directions essentially parallel to a radius extending from the said geometric centre of the timepiece,two chimes (5) which each comprise a circumferential segment (5C) placed on a circumferential part of the timepiece and a recti-linear part (5R), the two chimes (5) being arranged on either side with respect to the said radius, with the two rectilinear parts arranged essentially parallel to said radius and with the two circumferential segments (5C) extending in the said plane A in two opposite directions away from the said radius,the two hammers (4) being arranged parallel to and close to the rectilinear parts (5R) of the chimes (5), each hammer (4) being designed to pivot about an axis of rotation parallel to the said plane A so that the hammer (4) strikes the chime (5) by moving in a direction perpendicular with respect to the plane A of the said chime (5).
