Frequency Stabilisation Mechanism TRIZ Cases
- Flexure Pivot Oscillator Gravity Insensitivity
Asymmetric elastic elements in a 2D flexure pivot eliminate gravity sensitivity while maintaining linear restoring torque for precise timekeeping.
- Tourbillon Mechanism Nested Rings Rate Difference Reduction
Nested rings create compound rotation that reduces rate differences between horizontal and vertical positions while minimizing device bulk.
- Watch Balance Wheel Frequency Adjustment via Picolaser
Picolaser micromachines watch balance wheels to adjust oscillation frequency and inertia, eliminating complex mechanical balancing steps.
- Silicon Watch Component Coating and Edge Protection
A silicon watch component uses a composite coating to increase mechanical strength while leaving edge portions uncoated.
- Thermocompensated Silicon Spiral Spring
Adjusting the silicon dioxide coating thickness on a ceramic core minimizes thermal drift in watch balance springs.
- Parametric Resonator Clock Frequency Adjustment via Stiffness Modulation
Modulating elastic return means stiffness stabilizes oscillation frequency and reduces damping disturbances from conventional escapement mechanisms.
- Elastic Stud Holder for Watch Hairspring Assembly
An elastic stud holder deforms arms to enlarge housing space, simplifying hairspring assembly and preventing loss of small components.
- Optical Measurement of Archimedean Spiral Spring Oscillation
An optical measuring method detects deflection of adjacent turns in a spiral spring using laser scanning to determine oscillation parameters.
- Silicon Micro-Mechanical Parts with Thick Amorphous Silicon Dioxide Coating
Thermal oxidation forms a thick amorphous silicon dioxide layer on silicon micro-mechanical parts to resolve impact resistance and density trade-offs.
- Tuning Fork Oscillator Material Gradient for Mechanical Watch Precision
A tuning fork oscillator applies a material gradient to dampen unwanted symmetric oscillations and increase the quality factor of mechanical timepieces.
- Transparent Horological Mobile for Tourbillon Visibility
A transparent horological mobile reveals underlying tourbillon components through its partially clear second level.
- Flexible Arm Balance Bridge for Ultra-Flat Timepiece Movements
A flexible arm mechanically connects the fixing portion to the receiving portion of a balance bridge.
