TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of mechanical watches, in particular to a movement capable of displaying time in a rotating manner. BACKGROUND

[0002] Nowadays, mechanical watches are no longer single time indicating tools, but more as a kind of novelty and high interest ornaments owned by consumers. Therefore, in order to break the conventional technology in watch design, watch designers have taken a different approach, and various types of movements have also appeared. In order to facilitate the display of time, most watch movements are designed by mounting the hands at a fixed position on the dial, and indicating time by rotating the hands. This design makes the dial pattern relatively simple, and limits the design of the dial. In a long time of use, it is relatively monotonous and inconvenient to break the conventional display mode of the watch. At the same time, in order to reflect the mechanical beauty, a hollow is arranged at the position of the balance wheel, and the balance wheel is exposed in the field of view. However, the balance wheel is also fixed at a fixed position on the dial for a long time, and there is a large space between the balance wheel and the watch glass, which limits the structure of the movement clamping plate.

[0039] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0040] Example 1

[0041] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 ,and Figure 4 As shown, the mechanism for the turnover display of the present invention includes:

[0042] The torque output unit 1 is mounted on the plate of the movement. In this embodiment, the torque output unit 1 includes a mainspring barrel 11, which contains a mainspring. The mainspring stores elastic potential energy by winding it and releases the elastic potential energy into kinetic energy by deforming the mainspring, thereby driving the mainspring barrel 11 to rotate and outputting torque through the gears on the mainspring barrel 11. In other embodiments, the kinetic energy can also be output by a device that can output torque, such as a motor used in an electronic watch.

[0043] The movement's clamp plate is also equipped with a central gear 2 and a rotating gear 3. The rotating gear 3 is coaxially arranged with the central gear 2 and can rotate relative to the central gear 2. The rotating gear can be divided into at least two functional areas 31 along its circumference, and different functional units and transmission units are respectively arranged in each functional area 31. In this embodiment, the transmission units are meshing gears, and the gear closest to the central gear in each transmission unit meshes with the central gear. When the rotating gear and the central gear rotate relative to each other, the torque is transmitted to each functional unit through the central gear. At the same time, each functional unit installed on the rotating gear can obtain power while rotating around the central gear to complete its own action. The central gear 2 is fixed to the clamping plate, and the planetary gear 3 rotates around its axis. A third transmission system 12 is provided on one side of the planetary gear 3. The third transmission system 12 includes a two-wheel component 121 and a three-wheel component 122. The two-wheel component 121 and the three-wheel component 122 are both double-toothed, and the wheel of the two-wheel component 121 and the gear shaft of the three-wheel component 122 mesh with each other. The other wheel of the three-wheel component 122 meshes with the planetary gear 3. The torque output unit 1 is connected to the planetary gear 3 through the two-wheel component 121 and the three-wheel component 122, driving the planetary gear 3 to rotate. Specifically, the two-wheel component 121 meshes with the gear on the edge of the spring box 11. In other embodiments, the two-wheel component 121 can also be connected to the gear on the motor output shaft or directly to the motor output shaft. In other embodiments, the third transmission system 12 can also be a transmission system with more or fewer double-toothed components or gears, or it can be a transmission system that transmits torque stably through a chain or other means.

[0044] In this embodiment, the rotating gear has two functional areas 31, and the functional unit in one of the functional areas 31 is a time indicator unit 4, which is placed on the rotating gear 3, so that the time indicator unit 4 rotates around the central gear 2 as the rotating gear 3 rotates. The time indicator unit 4 includes a bushing 45 fixed on the rotating gear 3 and an hour wheel 41 that can rotate around the bushing. The hour wheel 41 is sleeved on the bushing 45, and the hour wheel 41 is connected to the central gear 2 through a first transmission gear system. In this embodiment, the first transmission gear system is a single gear, which is an intermediate wheel 42. The axle of the intermediate wheel 42 is fixed on the rotating gear 3, and the intermediate wheel 42 is rotatably connected to its own axle. When the rotating gear 3 rotates, since the central gear 2 is fixed, the rotating gear 3 and the intermediate wheel 42 rotate around the center of the rotating gear at the same angular velocity. The hour wheel 41 rotates around the bushing 45 through the transmission of the intermediate wheel 42. The hour wheel 41 is equipped with a pointer system 43, which includes at least one pointer wheel 431 on which the pointer is mounted. In this embodiment, there are two pointer wheels 431, namely a minute wheel 431a and an hour wheel 431b. The bushing 45 houses a rotating shaft 44, which drives the pointer wheels to rotate. In this embodiment, the top end of the rotating shaft 44 is coaxially connected to the minute wheel 431a. Specifically, the minute wheel 431a is fitted onto the rotating shaft 44. In other embodiments, a gear can be provided at the top end of the rotating shaft to drive the pointer wheels to rotate. During operation, the minute wheel 431a and the rotating shaft 44 are fixedly engaged. In this embodiment, to facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the minute wheel 431a and the rotating shaft 44 for future watch maintenance, the minute wheel 431a and the rotating shaft 44 are in friction engagement. The center of the minute wheel 431a extends vertically upward to form a shaft tube. The hour wheel 431b can be fitted onto the shaft tube of the minute wheel, and the minute hand can be fixedly engaged with the top end of the minute wheel. The hour hand can be fixedly connected to the hour wheel 431b. The outer edge of the hour wheel 41 is provided with a double tooth 433, which is a double tooth formed by the combination of the wheel plate 4331 and the tooth shaft 4332. The double tooth 433 can rotate around its own axis, and the friction force generated by the rotation is much smaller than the force generated by the friction between the minute wheel 431a and the rotating shaft 44, thereby preventing the minute wheel 431a from rotating relative to the rotating shaft 44. The tooth shaft 4332 meshes with the hour wheel 431b. When the hour wheel 41 rotates around the bushing 45, the double teeth 433 of the cross wheel rotate around the hour wheel 431a and the hour wheel 431b. At this time, the position of the hour wheel 431a is fixed relative to the hour wheel 41, and the hour wheel 431a can rotate relative to the hour wheel 41. In other embodiments, the first transmission gear system can also be a series of gears or double teeth that are connected to each other, so that the hour wheel 41 can rotate in a preset manner through the first transmission gear system.

[0045] The time-setting unit 5 includes a crown 51, a minute gear 52, and an adjusting wheel 53. The adjusting wheel 53 can drive the pointer wheel to rotate. In this embodiment, the adjusting wheel drives the minute wheel to rotate. Specifically, the adjusting wheel 53 is fixed on the rotating shaft 44. The minute gear 52 meshes with the adjusting wheel 53. The wheel plate of the minute gear 52 is in frictional contact with the wheel shaft. When the minute gear 52 is subjected to an external force, it can rotate relative to the wheel shaft. The minute gear 52 is connected to the gear on the crown 51. In this embodiment, a center time-setting wheel is coaxially mounted on the fixed center gear 2. It is coaxially mounted with the planetary gear 3 and can rotate relative to the planetary gear 3. In this embodiment, the center time-setting wheel is a double-toothed shifter 54, and the double-toothed shifter 54 can rotate around its own axis. The shifter gear 52 can mesh with the double-toothed shifter 54, or it can be connected to the double-toothed shifter 54 after adjusting the transmission ratio through multiple double-toothed shifters. Optionally, the center time-setting wheel can also be a single wheel. The center time-setting wheel is connected to the watch crown through a fourth transmission system 7. The fourth transmission system 7 includes multiple double-toothed shifters and / or gears that mesh with each other. Specifically, a vertical wheel and a crown wheel that rotate synchronously with the watch crown 51 are mounted on the watch crown 51. The crown wheel and the vertical wheel mesh with the gears of the fourth transmission system 7, so that the watch crown can drive the center time-setting wheel to rotate. During operation, as the mainspring in the mainspring barrel 11 releases energy, the rotating gear 3 rotates, causing the time indicator unit 4 to rotate around the center of the rotating gear 3. At the same time, since the dividing gear 52 is frictionally connected to its own gear shaft, the dividing gear 52 rotates around its own axis with damping, so that the dividing gear 52 remains relatively stationary with its own gear shaft when no external force is applied. Since the adjusting wheel 53 meshes with the dividing gear 52, and the adjusting wheel 53 and the rotating shaft 44 are designed as a single unit, the rotating shaft 44 remains relatively stationary with the rotating gear 3. The dividing wheel 431a remains relatively stationary with the rotating gear 3 under the action of frictional engagement with the rotating shaft 44. Since the hour wheel 41 and the center gear 2 are connected by transmission through the intermediate wheel 42, the hour wheel 41 rotates around its own axis. The double-toothed cross wheel 433 rotates around the hour wheel 41 and meshes with the dividing wheel 431a, causing the double-toothed cross wheel 433 to rotate around its own axis, thereby driving the hour wheel 431b to rotate around its own axis.Those skilled in the art should know that the transmission ratio between the hour wheel 431b and the minute wheel 431a can be controlled by setting the number of teeth on the gears, so that the transmission ratio between the hour wheel 431b and the minute wheel 431a is 1:12. This allows the minute wheel 431a to rotate relative to the hour wheel 41 for one revolution around its own axis. At this time, the hour wheel 431b can rotate 30° around its own axis under the drive of the double gear 433. During the time setting process, pulling the crown 51 causes the crown wheel to mesh with the setting gear. When the crown 51 is rotated, the torque is transmitted to the minute gear 52 through the transmission connection, causing the minute gear 52 to rotate around its own axis, driving the adjusting wheel 53 to rotate. The adjusting wheel 53 rotates synchronously with the rotating shaft 44, thereby causing the minute wheel 431a to rotate around its own axis, completing the minute hand time setting. At the same time, under the drive of the double gear 433, the hour hand is simultaneously set. Those skilled in the art should know that the crown 51 cooperates with the watch's time-setting mechanism, and can drive the gear in the time-setting unit 5 to rotate through the crown wheel, or can separate the crown wheel from the gear in the time-setting unit 5, so that the crown 51 can rotate freely.

[0046] The functional unit within another functional area 31 on the rotating gear is the escapement regulating system. The transmission unit is the second transmission unit 62. In this embodiment, the second transmission unit 62 includes multi-stage double-tooth or gear sets. The escapement regulating system includes a balance wheel assembly 61, an escape fork, and an escape wheel. The escape wheel and the fixed center wheel are connected via the second transmission unit 62. The escape fork is positioned between the balance wheel assembly 61 and the escape wheel. When the mainspring releases energy, causing the gears in the movement to rotate, the periodic oscillation of the balance wheel ensures a periodic release of energy from the mainspring, thereby controlling the rotational speed of the rotating gear 3. Consequently, the rotating gear 3, the hour wheel 41, the minute wheel 431a, and the hour wheel 431b reach a preset rotational speed through the transmission ratio between the gears. The time is displayed by pointers on the minute wheel 431a and the hour wheel 431b. In other embodiments, the transmission system can also use other transmission methods such as chain drive to transmit torque, such as the sesame chain drive structure used in the movement. Those skilled in the art should know that the balance wheel assembly 61 can adjust the speed of the balance wheel by setting a speed regulator, eccentric weights, etc., thereby adjusting the speed of the movement. This is prior art and will not be described in detail here. In other embodiments, the oscillator 6 can also be a quartz oscillator 6 or other device with periodic motion and capable of controlling the speed of the mechanism. The quartz oscillator 6 controls the rotation speed of the motor's output shaft through a circuit. The escapement system controls the rotation speed of the edge gear of the mainspring barrel 11 through the periodic rotation speed of the balance wheel. In this case, the edge gear of the mainspring barrel 11 can be regarded as the output shaft.

[0047] Those skilled in the art should know that an integral or separate clamping plate can be set at the position of the axle of each gear on the rotating gear 3. The axle of the gear and the balance wheel assembly 61 can be fixed in a preset position by fixing the clamping plate and the rotating gear 3, so that the gear rotates stably.

[0048] A positioning pin tube 46 is provided on the edge of the hour wheel 41, and the double-toothed cross wheel 433 is placed inside the positioning pin tube 46. A revolution dial 47 can be provided on the time indication unit. The revolution dial 47 can be a digital dial or a celestial dial, etc. The revolution dial 47 includes a fixing plate 471 and a revolution dial surface 472. The fixing plate 471 is fixed to the hour wheel 41 by the positioning pin tube 46. A plug tube extends vertically upward from the middle of the fixing plate 471. The revolution dial surface 472 is inserted and fixed to the plug tube. The axle tube of the minute wheel 431a is inserted into the plug tube. The revolution dial 47 is supported by the positioning pin tube. At the same time, the plug tube separates the revolution dial surface 472 from the axle tube of the minute wheel, thereby preventing the revolution dial 47 from affecting the rotation of the pointer wheel. At the same time, it allows the axle tube of the minute wheel 431a to pass through the dial surface of the revolution dial 47 and connect with the minute hand. In other embodiments, the axle tube of the minute wheel can also be replaced by the axle tube of the hour wheel or second wheel, etc., as needed.

[0049] The double-toothed gear 433 is positioned below the orbital dial 47, and a rotating dial (not shown in the figure) can be mounted above the planetary gear 3. This rotating dial can be a decorative patterned dial and / or other indicator dials. The patterned dial or other indicator dials can be installed via a structure on the outside of the movement or a structure that fixes the dial on the rotating dial, allowing each dial to rotate or be fixed above the movement. In this embodiment, a positioning pin tube is fixed to the surface of the planetary gear near the outside of the movement, and a sleeve that mates with the positioning pin tube is fixed to the rotating dial. A set screw passes through the sleeve and abuts against the positioning pin tube, fixing the rotating dial to the planetary gear. During rotation, the planetary gear and the hour wheel drive the rotating dial and the orbital dial to rotate, thus showcasing the coordinated effect of the two dials. This provides more flexible dial design possibilities and allows the indicator part and balance wheel part of the watch to rotate as a whole on the dial, making the indication of the mechanical watch more agile and versatile. In this embodiment, the rotating dial is also provided with a display hole and a clearance hole, so that the escapement speed regulating system can be seen from the outside through the display hole, and the rotating shaft of the time indicator unit passes through the clearance hole through the rotating dial.

[0050] In this embodiment of the rotating display mechanism described in this invention, the designer can design parameters such as gear transmission ratio and balance wheel rotation period to set the rotating gear 3 to rotate once every 60 minutes. At this time, when the rotating shaft 44 rotates around itself, the minute wheel 431a can rotate one revolution relative to the hour wheel, and the hour wheel 431b can rotate 30° around itself. Thus, the minute wheel 431a and the hour wheel 431b can indicate the time while rotating around the central gear 2. The rotation speed of the rotating gear 3 and the transmission ratio between each gear can also be changed as needed to indicate different forms of time, such as indicating 24 hours.

[0051] Example 2

[0052] Compared with Embodiment 1, this embodiment has three functional areas 31 on the planetary gear. Two of the functional areas are equipped with an escapement speed regulating system and a time indication unit, respectively. In the other functional area, a second set of time indication units is provided. That is, two hour wheels 41 are provided on the planetary gear 3. One hour wheel 41 is connected to the central gear 2 through a first transmission gear system. The other hour wheel 41 changes its own rotation speed through a new transmission system, so that the rotation ratio between the two hour wheels 41 is 12:1. Those skilled in the art can indicate the hour and minute by setting pointers above the two hour wheels 41 respectively, and can also change the rotation ratio of the two hour wheels 41 as needed to indicate the hour, quarter, etc.

[0053] Example 3

[0054] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 2 is that a star mechanism can be set on one of the hour wheels 41, or a new functional area can be additionally defined, and a separate transmission system and hour wheel 41 can be added to the new functional area, with a star mechanism set on the new hour wheel 41.

[0055] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
