METHOD FOR SERVICING AND REGULATING AN HOROLOGY RESONATOR

摘要

Method for servicing and regulating the frequency of an horology resonator mechanism (1) about its natural frequency (ω0), characterized in that use is made of at least one regulator device (2) acting on said resonator mechanism (1) with a periodic movement. Said periodic movement imposes a periodic modulation of the resonant frequency and/or of the Q factor/or of the position of the quiescent point of said resonator mechanism (1), with a regulating frequency (ωR) that is comprised between 0.9 and 1.1 times the value of an integer multiple of said natural frequency (ω0), said integer being greater than or equal to 2 and less than or equal to 10. Said periodic movement imposes a periodic modulation of the Q factor of said resonator mechanism (1) by acting on the losses and/or the damping and/or the friction of said resonator mechanism (1).
