Embodiment Construction

[0030] The present invention relates to a figure 1 A timepiece 1 is shown, such as a wristwatch, comprising a dial 2 on which various markings are represented in a standard manner, such as hours, minutes, seconds or any other suitable markings. Dial 2 defines the XY plane.

[0031] Various dynamic mechanisms are represented on the dial 2, such as a wheel 4 and an automatic device 6 comprising at least one first member 8 and at least one second member 10, which are articulated Arranged to mimic a fan motion by the drive mechanism. In the example described here, the automatic device 6 appears as a butterfly piece comprising a lower wing, an upper wing and a body 12, a first member 8 arranged closest to the dial 2 represents the lower wing, a second member arranged farthest from the dial 2 10 denotes the upper wing, said second member 10 having a base 14 extending substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the butterfly defined by the body 12 and simulating the articula...

Abstract

The invention relates to a timepiece including a dial (2) defining an XY plane, an automaton (6) disposed above the dial (2), the automaton having at least one first member (8) and at least one secondmember (10) which are articulated in order to reproduce beating movements, and a driving mechanism of the automaton. The first member (8) is provided in order to pivot about a first axis which is non-parallel to the XY plane and the second member (10) is provided in order to pivot about a second axis which is different from the first axis. The driving mechanism of the automaton (6) includes actuators of the first member (8) and the second member (10), provided in order to make the first member (8) and the second member (10) respectively pivot according to non-symmetrical pivoting movements and in order to coordinate the pivoting movements of the first member (8) and the second member (10) so that the combination thereof gives a beating effect of the first member (8) and the second member(10).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a timepiece comprising a dial, an automatic device arranged above the dial, and a drive mechanism for said automatic device, said automatic device having at least one first member and at least one second member articulated to reproduce the The fanning motion of the components. More specifically, the automatic device may be represented as a butterfly, the first member and the second member constituting wings on both sides of the main body of the butterfly. Background technique [0002] Such a timepiece is described, for example, in utility model CN ​​202975610. The robot in the form of a butterfly consists of two symmetrical wings hinged on each side along the same longitudinal axis constituting the body of the butterfly. Each wing is actuated by its own mechanism comprising a lever arranged to oscillate symmetrically relative to the body of the butterfly between a high position and a low position relative to the dial. The wi...
