Problems solved by technology

[0018] Furthermore, in the case of watches with an oscillating movement along two axes, there is a limit to the degree of oscillation achievable while ensuring smooth movement, and this may affect the efficiency of the winding of some watches
[0019] Furthermore, the known device does not allow easy programming and control of the number of turns and oscillations that must be made in order to fully wind the watch

Embodiment Construction

[0032] With reference to the figures, a device for winding a watch, in particular a self-winding watch, according to the invention is indicated generally by the reference numeral 1 and comprises a support structure 2 provided with a device suitable for accommodating the desired Seat 3 of the case of the wind-up watch.

[0033] Preferably, the support structure 2 has the shape of a parallelepiped, with seats 3 provided on its upper surface.

[0034] The support structure 2 can in any case have different shapes and dimensions, depending on the application requirements. Furthermore, the support structure 2 can in turn be housed in containers such as boxes and furnishing accessories.

[0035] On the upper surface of the support structure 2 there is a circular hole in which is inserted the housing 3 of the watch to be wound.

[0036] This seat 3 has a shape suitable to stably accommodate the watch to be wound and may advantageously include structures for locking the watch thereon...

Abstract

A device for winding watches, particularly self-winding watches, comprises a supporting structure (2) provided with a seat (3) for accommodating the watch to be wound. The seat (3) is connected to transmission means (4) operated by a motor (5) and is inclined with respect to an axis (41) that is jointly connected to the supporting structure (2). The seat (3) can oscillate in a substantially conical manner about the axis (41) jointly connected to the supporting structure.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device for winding mechanical watches, in particular self-winding mechanical watches, wrist watches and pocket watches. Background technique [0002] The term "self-winding watch" refers to a type of watch, usually a wristwatch, that has the property of being wound by the arm movement of its owner, so that the user does not have to wind the crown manually. [0003] Self-winding is enabled by a winding block called a rotor, which pivots due to the movement of the user's arm. This rotor is connected to a winding mechanism inside the watch, which includes a spring. The rotation of the rotor winds the spring which, by releasing itself, releases the energy required to move the hands and thus run the watch. [0004] The winding mechanism within a watch operates by changing the orientation of the rotor relative to an axis perpendicular to the ground and generally oriented in the direction of gravity. [0005] In order to wind the...
