Abstract (en)
[origin: JP2020091287A] To provide a striking mechanism of a suspended hammer type clock.SOLUTION: A striking mechanism 100 of a clock comprises a fixed structure 1 for supporting at least one gong or radiating element, and a movable hammer 3 in a plane under action of an actuated movable part 4. The actuated movable part 4 regulates an ankle and release of the hammer 3 for a strike of the gong. The striking mechanism 100 provides at least one planar flexible guide 10 between the structure 1 and the hammer 3 to suspend the hammer 3, thereby enabling the hammer 3 to move only in a plane, and forms an only mechanical connection part between the structure 1 and the hammer 3. The striking mechanism 100 drives the actuated movable part 4 and makes the actuated movable part 4 execute a winding cycle. During the winding cycle, the actuated movable part 4 supplies a certain amount of energy to the flexible guide 10 while driving the hammer 3, then releases the hammer 3 and executes the striking mechanism with the strike of the gong while the hammer falls down.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
Abstract (fr)
Mécanisme de sonnerie (100) d'horlogerie, comportant une structure (1) portant un timbre ou élément rayonnant (2) et un marteau (3) mobile dans un plan (P) sous l'action d'un mobile d'activation (4) commandant la levée du marteau (3) et sa libération pour la percussion du timbre (2), et comportant, pour la suspension du marteau (3), au moins un guidage flexible (10) plan entre la structure (1) et le marteau (3) pour autoriser des mouvements du marteau (3) uniquement dans le plan (P), constituant la seule liaison mécanique entre la structure (1) et le marteau (3), et, plus particulièrement, pour l'exécution d'une sonnerie, le mécanisme de sonnerie (100) entraîne le mobile d'activation (4), et lui fait effectuer un cycle d'armage au cours duquel il fournit une quantité d'énergie constante au guidage flexible (10) en entraînant le marteau (3) avant de le libérer pour l'exécution de la sonnerie par percussion du timbre (2) lors du désarmage.
