Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, although the button system proposed in patent CH 704691B1 solves the problem of thruster jamming, it has a disadvantage
In fact, the propeller of such a system may bend when it is subjected to an actuation force in a non-axial direction (usually a radial force)

Embodiment Construction

[0022] figure 1 and figure 2 A pushbutton system 1 for activating the actuating member is represented. Push button system 1 is fitted, for example, on a wristwatch, in particular a chronograph wristwatch, but this is not restrictive in the context of the invention. In a variant, push button system 1 can be fitted to any type of timepiece or any device provided with a member to be actuated. For the sake of clarity, such a timepiece or such a device is not shown in the figures. In the case where the push-button system 1 is fitted to a timepiece, the timepiece comprises a case inside which the timepiece movement and the actuating members on which the push-button system 1 acts are arranged. The actuating member is usually a functional member, eg a chronograph lever or a switch in the case of an electronic watch application.

[0023] The button system 1 comprises a button head 2 , a pusher 4 integral with the button head 2 , a first hollow guide member 6 , a second hollow guid...

Abstract

The invention relates to a push button system for activating an actuation member, the system including a button head, a pusher actuator integral with the button head, a first hollow guide member, thepusher actuator being mounted to slide inside the first hollow guide member, the first hollow guide member being intended to be secured to a fixed element relative to the button head and to the pusheractuator, a second hollow guide member arranged in the button head, and a pin mounted to slide inside the second hollow member, and intended to be secured to the fixed element. The pusher actuator has an upper portion provided on the periphery thereof with a collar intended to cooperate with an internal face of the first hollow guide member to guide the pusher inside the member.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a push button system for activating an actuating member. [0002] The invention also relates to a timepiece, in particular a wristwatch, comprising such a push-button system. This type of push button system is typically used to activate and / or deactivate one or more functions of the watch. Background technique [0003] In the field of horology, known push-button systems are intended to actuate actuating members arranged in a housing, usually a watch case. Such a system includes a button head accessible from the outside of the housing and translatable relative to the housing, a pusher integral with the button head and mounted to slide through an opening provided in the housing, and a A hollow guide member integrally mounted and at least partially inserted into the opening provided in the housing and in which the pusher slides. However, such button systems are often subject to actuation forces in non-axial directions, which ma...
