Background technology
In existing mechanical clock, as Figure 17 and shown in Figure 180, the movement of mechanical clock (mechanical body) 1100 has the bottom plate 1102 that constitutes the movement substrate.Winding arbor 1110 is assembled among the winding arbor pilot hole 1102a of bottom plate 1102 rotationally.Dial plate 1104 (among Figure 18 shown in the dotted line) is installed on the movement 1100.
Usually, a side that has dial plate in the both sides of bottom plate is called as " rear side " of movement, and a side opposite with the side with dial plate is called as " face side " of movement.The train that is assembled on " face side " of movement is called " table train ", and the train that is assembled on " rear side " of movement is called " backgear system ".
Determine the axis direction position of winding arbor 1110 by the switching device shifter that comprises date corrector operating lever 1190, trip(ping) lever 1192, trip(ping) lever spring 1194 and bolt spring 1196.Upright wheel 1112 is arranged on the guiding axial region of winding arbor 1110 rotationally.When being positioned at winding arbor 1110 when the rotation direction makes winding arbor 1110 rotations under the state near the first winding arbor position (the 0th grade) of movement inboard, upright wheel 1112 rotates via the rotation of castle wheel.Little steel wheel 1114 rotates because of the rotation of upright wheel 1112.Click wheel 1116 rotates because of the rotation of little steel wheel 1114.Since the rotation of click wheel 1116, clockwork spring 1122 rolling-in of accommodating in the barrel component 1120.Band tooth axle centre wheel 1124 rotates because of the rotation of barrel component 1120.Escape wheel 1130 rotates via the rotation of second wheel parts 1128, third wheel 1126, band tooth axle centre wheel 1124.Barrel component 1120, band tooth axle centre wheel 1 124, third wheel 1126 and second wheel parts 1128 constitute the table train.
Because the escapement/arrangements for speed regulation of control table train rotation comprise escapement hairspring mechanism 1140, escape wheel 1130 and escapement lever 1142.Escapement hairspring mechanism 1140 comprises balancing arbor 1140a, escapement 1140b and hairspring 1140c.According to the rotation of band tooth axle centre wheel 1124, minute wheel 1150 rotates simultaneously.Be installed in minute hand 1152 expressions " branch " on the minute wheel 1150.Minute wheel 1150 is provided with the slide mechanism with respect to band tooth axle centre wheel 1124.According to the rotation of minute wheel 1150, hour wheel 1154 rotates via the rotation of minute wheel.Be installed in hour hands 1156 expression on the hour wheel 1154 " time ".
Hairspring 1140c is the thin plate springs with a few eddy current shape (spiral fashion).The inner end of hairspring 1140c is that fixedly balancing arbor 1140a goes up on the fixing hairspring holder 1140d, and the outer end of hairspring 1140c is fixed by screw via the hairspring stud 1170a that is installed on the outer anchor ear 1170 that is fixed on the balance cock 1166.
Usually, in the mechanical clock of existing typical, as shown in figure 19, clockwork spring is from state (full volume state) uncoiling of rolling-in, and As time goes on, the torque of clockwork spring reduces.For example, under the situation of Figure 19, the clockwork spring torque is about 27gcm under the state of rolling-in, then is about 23gcm from the rolling-in state after 20 hours, then is about 18gcm from the rolling-in state after 40 hours.
Usually, in the mechanical clock of existing typical, as shown in figure 20, when the clockwork spring torque reduced, the pivot angle of escapement hairspring mechanism also reduced.For example, under the situation of Figure 20, when the clockwork spring torque was 25～28gcm, the pivot angle of escapement hairspring mechanism was about 240～270 degree, and when the clockwork spring torque was 20～25gcm, the pivot angle of escapement hairspring mechanism was about 180～240 degree.
With reference to Figure 21, show in the mechanical clock of existing typical passing with respect to the moment diurnal inequality (numerical value of expression clock and watch precision) of pivot angle.At this, " moment diurnal inequality " is meant " under the state of the state of keeping escapement hairspring mechanism pivot angle when measuring diurnal inequality etc. or environment, suppose that mechanical clock placed one, represent fast or slow value within a day ".Under the situation of Figure 21, the pivot angle of escapement hairspring mechanism be above or 200 degree of 240 degree when following moment diurnal inequality for slowly.
For example, in the mechanical clock of existing typical, as shown in figure 21, when the pivot angle of escapement hairspring mechanism is about 200～240 when spending, moment, diurnal inequality was about 0～5 second/day (about one day fast 0～5 second), when the pivot angle of escapement hairspring mechanism is about 170 when spending, moment diurnal inequality be about-20/ (about one day slow 20 seconds).
With reference to Figure 22, the mechanical clock that shows existing typical during from rolling-in state backrush clockwork spring elapsed time and moment diurnal inequality passing.At this, in the existing mechanical clock and watch, fast, slow " diurnal inequality " of representing hour hands within a day is to represent with superfine line in Figure 22, is by obtaining carrying out integration with respect to clockwork spring from the moment diurnal inequality in the elapsed time of rolling-in state when loosening with 24 hours.
Usually, in the existing mechanical clock and watch, along with clockwork spring from the backrush of rolling-in state, time through continuing, the clockwork spring torque reduces, the pivot angle of escapement hairspring mechanism also reduces, so moment diurnal inequality slow down.Therefore, in the existing mechanical clock and watch, think that the duration is slow partially through the clock and watch after 24 hours, so it is adjusted, the moment diurnal inequality when making the clockwork spring rolling-in in advance is fast, thus fast or slow " diurnal inequality " that make clock and watch within the expression one day on the occasion of.
For example, in the mechanical clock of existing typical, shown in superfine wire among Figure 22, under the rolling-in state, moment, diurnal inequality was about 3 seconds/day (about one day fast 3 seconds), be about-3 seconds/day (about one day slow 3 seconds) from the rolling-in state through the moment diurnal inequality after 20 hours, be about-8 seconds/day (about one day slow 8 seconds) through the moment diurnal inequality after 24 hours, be about-16 seconds/day (about one day slow 16 seconds) through the moment diurnal inequality after 30 hours from the rolling-in state from the rolling-in state.
In mechanical clock, installed in supposition under the state of dial plate, be that level is defined as " horizontal posture " with dial plate, with dial plate for vertically being defined as " orthostatism ".
In addition, in mechanical clock, installed in supposition under the state of dial plate, will be from the center of mechanical clock on dial plate the direction of 12 o'clock scale be called " 12 o'clock directions ", will be from the center of mechanical clock on dial plate the direction of 3 o'clock scale be called " 3 o'clock directions ", will be from the center of mechanical clock on dial plate the direction of 6 o'clock scale be called " 6 o'clock directions ", will be from the center of mechanical clock on dial plate the direction of 9 o'clock scale be called " 9 o'clock directions " (with reference to Figure 17).
In mechanical clock, install dial plate in supposition, and dial plate is under the vertical state, posture on 12 o'clock scales on the dial plate is called " postures on 12 o'clock ", posture on 3 o'clock scales on the dial plate is called " postures on 3 o'clock ", posture on 6 o'clock scales on the dial plate is called " postures on 6 o'clock ", the posture on the dial plate 9 o'clock is called " postures on 9 o'clock ".
Like this, in mechanical clock, as can be known with respect to these " postures on 12 o'clock ", " postures on 3 o'clock ", and " postures on 6 o'clock ", " postures on 9 o'clock " these 4 kinds of orthostatisms, the measured value of " diurnal inequality " is different.Therefore, in mechanical clock, these 4 kinds of orthostatisms are carried out the mensuration of " diurnal inequality ", and carry out the diurnal inequality adjustment of mechanical clock,, thereby carry out the manufacturing of mechanical clock so that each " diurnal inequality " measured value satisfies the specification of appointment.
In the following description, will " diurnal inequality when mechanical clock is a posture on 12 o'clock " be called " 12 o'clock go up diurnal inequality ", " diurnal inequality when mechanical clock is a posture on 3 o'clock " is called " diurnal inequalities on 3 o'clock ", " diurnal inequality when mechanical clock is a posture on 6 o'clock " is called " diurnal inequalities on 6 o'clock ", " diurnal inequality when mechanical clock is a posture on 9 o'clock " is called " diurnal inequalities on 9 o'clock ".
With reference to Figure 23, in mechanical clock, when the pivot angle of escapement is 150 when spending, the diurnal inequality mean value of 4 kinds of orthostatisms (mean value of the diurnal inequality on 3 o'clock, the diurnal inequality on 6 o'clock, the diurnal inequality on 9 o'clock, the diurnal inequality on 12 o'clock) is about 31 seconds/day.And when the pivot angle of escapement is 250 when spending, the diurnal inequality mean value of 4 kinds of orthostatisms is about-4 seconds/day.
Like this, in mechanical clock, when the pivot angle of escapement is 180 when spending, the diurnal inequality mean value of 4 kinds of orthostatisms is about 20～25 seconds/day.
With reference to Figure 20, in mechanical clock, when the pivot angle of escapement hairspring mechanism is 180 when spending, the diurnal inequality of horizontal posture is about 10 seconds/day.That is, in mechanical clock, when the pivot angle of escapement hairspring mechanism is 180 when spending, the diurnal inequality of orthostatism was than the diurnal inequality of horizontal posture only fast about 10～15 seconds/day.
In the past, in order to adjust the diurnal inequality of this mechanical clock, be escapement hairspring mechanism 1140 to be taken out from the movement (mechanical body) 1100 of the mechanical clock that assembled by manual operations, by manual operations the part of escapement is pruned, and then escapement hairspring mechanism 1140 is assembled in the movement (mechanical body) 1100 carries out.Therefore, at first the movement (mechanical body) 1100 of the mechanical clock that assembles is carried out the mensuration of diurnal inequality, the mensuration of diurnal inequality is carried out in the part of the escapement back of pruning to the movement (mechanical body) 1100 of having assembled escapement hairspring mechanism 1140 once more.
Therefore, expensive time and labor is wanted in the mensuration of diurnal inequality and adjustment in the past, and is difficult to realize the high accuracy mechanical clock and watch.
In addition, pivot angle adjusting gear as existing escapement hairspring mechanism, for example real open disclose in the clear 54-41675 communique possess the magnet swing of escapement hairspring mechanism near the time produce overcurrent, the pivot angle that escapement hairspring mechanism is applied damping force is adjusted the adjusting gear of plate.
And, at for example special concrete structure of driving the automatic remontoir that discloses the clock and watch that wind up automatically in the past in the flat 11-183645 communique.
Even the object of the present invention is to provide a kind of from the rolling-in state through certain hour, the high-accuracy mechanical clock and watch that the variation of diurnal inequality is also very little.

With reference to Fig. 5, escapement magnet 140e has the form of circular (ring-type), is provided with by for example up and down 12 S utmost point 140s1～140s12 and 12 magnet segments that N utmost point 140n1～140n12 constitutes of split pole along its circumferencial direction.The quantity that escapement magnet 140e goes up the magnet segment of circular (ring-type) configuration is 12 in example shown in Figure 5, but so long as a plurality of the getting final product more than 2.At this, preferably an external diameter of the length of magnet segment string and the coil that is provided with its magnet segment subtend about equally.
Between escapement magnet 140e and coil 180a, 180b, be provided with the gap.Gap between escapement magnet 140e and coil 180a, the 180b determines that so promptly, when coil 180a, 180b conducting, the magnetic force of escapement magnet 140 can exert an influence to coil 180a, 180b.
When coil 180a, not conducting of 180b, the magnetic force of escapement magnet 140e can not exert an influence to coil 180a, 180b.Escapement magnet 140e contacts with the annular flange of escapement 140b at a face, the face of the face side of another face and bottom plate 102 relative to state, be fixed on by bonding grade on the face of bottom plate one side of escapement 140b.

(9) effect of posture detecting part, timed annular balance rotation detecting part, detent
Below, the effect of posture detecting part, timed annular balance rotation detecting part and detent of the mechanical clock of invention is illustrated.
With reference to Fig. 1～Fig. 4, to coil 180a, 180b not during conducting, the action of the escapement hairspring mechanism 140 the when loop that promptly comprises coil 180a, 180b disconnects is illustrated.
In the anglec of rotation (pivot angle) of escapement hairspring mechanism 140 less than certain critical value, for example under the situations of 180 degree because the action in escapement Spin Control loop 306, coil 180a, not conducting of 180b.
Below, during to coil 180a, 180b conducting, the action of the escapement hairspring mechanism 140 when promptly comprising the circuit closed of coil 180a, 180b is illustrated.That is, when the pivot angle of escapement hairspring mechanism 140 is 180 degree when above, coil 180a, 180b conducting.
When the pivot angle of escapement hairspring mechanism 140 is that 180 degree are when above, by 306 actions of escapement Spin Control loop, coil 180a, 180b conducting, by the induction current that flux change produced of escapement magnet 140e, in escapement hairspring mechanism 140, apply the power that rotatablely moves that suppresses escapement hairspring mechanism 140.Therefore,, in escapement hairspring mechanism 140, apply the damping force that suppresses 140 rotations of escapement hairspring mechanism, the pivot angle of escapement hairspring mechanism 140 is reduced by escapement Spin Control loop 306 and coil 180a, 180b and escapement magnet 140e effect.
When being reduced to, the pivot angle of escapement hairspring mechanism 140 surpasses 0 degree and during less than the scope of 180 degree, by the action in escapement Spin Control loop 306, and coil 180a, not conducting of 180b.Therefore, in the pivot angle of escapement hairspring mechanism 140 surpasses 0 degree and the scopes less than 180 degree, do not make coil 180a, 180b conducting, in escapement hairspring mechanism 140, do not apply the power that rotatablely moves that suppresses escapement hairspring mechanism 140.
Below, the effect of timed annular balance rotation detecting part and detent in the mechanical clock of the present invention is illustrated.
With reference to Figure 15 and Figure 16, the action that detects loop 172 by the escapement rotation begins the rotation detection (stage S31) of escapement hairspring mechanism.
The escapement rotation detects loop 172 and judges the time (stage S32) of detecting escapement hairspring mechanism pivot angle.The judgement of the detection time of escapement hairspring mechanism pivot angle is for example undertaken by timer.The setting-up time that should carry out the rotation detection of escapement hairspring mechanism is stored in the escapement rotation in advance and detects in the loop 172.
The setting-up time that should carry out the rotation detection of escapement hairspring mechanism for example is about 1 hour.Should carry out the setting-up time that the rotation of escapement hairspring mechanism detects and be about 0.25～6 hour better, be about 0.5～3 hour better, be about 1～2 hour best.
When escapement rotation detection loop 172 determined above setting-up time, the escapement rotation detected loop 172 and makes phototriode 130 conductings (stage S33).When setting-up time is not passed through in escapement rotation detection loop 172 judgements, return stage S32, repeat to judge the action of detection time.
In stage S33, when escapement rotation detection loop 172 made phototriode 130 conductings, the operating state that incides the light measurement escapement arm 140f on the photodiode 132 was adopted in escapement Spin Control loop 306, calculates the pivot angle of escapement hairspring mechanism 140.
Because escapement Spin Control loop 306 stores the relation of the pivot angle of the cycle of inciding the light on the photodiode 132 and escapement hairspring mechanism in advance, so the THE FORMULA FOR COMPUTING ANGLE OF OSCILLATION of escapement hairspring mechanism 140 can adopt the cycle of inciding the light on the photodiode 132 to carry out.
Judging the pivot angle of escapement hairspring mechanisms 140 when escapement Spin Control loop 306 is set angle when above, and the escapement rotation detects loop 172 makes phototriode 130 disconnect (stage S35).
Then, the posture (S38) of mechanical clock is detected in escapement Spin Control loop 306, judges that mechanical clock is orthostatism or horizontal posture (stage S39).
That is, escapement Spin Control loop 306 is detected when posture detection parts 320 contact with electrode 322 with posture detection and is had or not the signal of representing orthostatism of posture detection with electrode 322 outputs, and carrying out mechanical clock is the orthostatism or the detection of horizontal posture.
For example, the structure in escapement Spin Control loop 306 is, when posture detection with the signal of representing orthostatism of electrode 322 output with the critical value of certain detection time, when for example exporting 5 seconds continuously, the judgement mechanical clock is an orthostatism, when posture detection with the signal of representing orthostatism of electrode 322 output not with the critical value of certain detection time, when for example exporting 5 seconds continuously, judge that mechanical clock is horizontal posture.
If the state that posture detection was not exported 5 seconds continuously with the signal of representing orthostatism of electrode 322 outputs and the signal of orthostatism is not represented in output does not continue 5 seconds yet, then escapement Spin Control loop 306 judges that mechanical clock is an orthostatism when posture detection is exported the signal of representing orthostatism at first with electrode 322, and the judgement mechanical clock is horizontal posture when posture detection is exported the signal of representing orthostatism at first with electrode 322.
Under according to the situation of posture detection with the posture of the signal determining mechanical clocks of the initial output of electrode 322, preferably the critical value setting of the binding hours that will judge like this becomes posture detection about 3～4 times with the critical value of the signal continuous detection time of electrode 322 outputs.
According to this structure, can get rid of posture detection parts 320 with respect to the influence that vibration produced of posture detection with electrode 322, can detect the posture of mechanical clock reliably.
If detect mechanical clock in escapement Spin Control loop 306 is horizontal posture, and then escapement Spin Control loop 306 makes coil 108,108b conducting (stage S40) according to the operation condition of horizontal posture.When making coil 108a, 108b conducting,, in escapement hairspring mechanism 140, be applied with the power that rotatablely moves that suppresses escapement hairspring mechanism 140 because of the magnet quantitative changeization of escapement magnet 140e produces induction current.Like this, owing in escapement hairspring mechanism 140, be applied with the damping force that suppresses 140 rotations of escapement hairspring mechanism, so the pivot angle of escapement hairspring mechanism 140 reduces.
Escapement Spin Control loop 306 makes coil 108,108b conducting, is used to make the operation condition of the horizontal posture that the pivot angle of escapement hairspring mechanism 140 reduces to obtain by experiment in advance, and can be stored in advance in the escapement Spin Control loop 306.
If detect mechanical clock in escapement Spin Control loop 306 is orthostatism, and then escapement Spin Control loop 406 makes coil 108a, 108 conductings (stage S41) according to the operation condition of orthostatism.When making coil 108a, 108b conducting,, in escapement hairspring mechanism 140, be applied with the power that rotatablely moves that suppresses escapement hairspring mechanism 140 because of the magnet quantitative changeization of escapement magnet 140e produces induction current.Like this, owing in escapement hairspring mechanism 140, be applied with the damping force that suppresses 140 rotations of escapement hairspring mechanism, so the pivot angle of escapement hairspring mechanism 140 reduces.
Escapement Spin Control loop 306 makes coil 180a, 180b conducting, is used to make the operation condition of the orthostatism that the pivot angle of escapement hairspring mechanism 140 reduces also can obtain by experiment in advance, and is stored in advance in the escapement Spin Control loop 306.
After escapement Spin Control loop 306 made coil 180a, 108b conducting, the time (stage S42) that mechanical clock is placed posture of detecting was judged in escapement Spin Control loop 306.Detecting the judgement of the detection time of posture is for example undertaken by timer.The setting-up time that should carry out posture detection is stored in the escapement Spin Control loop 406 in advance.
The setting-up time that should carry out the detection of mechanical clock placement posture for example is about 10 minutes.The setting-up time that should carry out posture detection is about 1～60 minute better, be about 5～30 minutes better, be about 10～15 minutes best.
In the present invention, the setting-up time that should carry out the detection of mechanical clock placement posture is set for less than the above-mentioned setting-up time that should carry out escapement rotation detection.For example, when the setting-up time of the detection that should carry out mechanical clock placement posture was about 10 minutes, the setting-up time that should carry out the rotation detection of escapement was preferably 1 hour.
Judge when escapement Spin Control loop 306 and to have passed through to carry out the setting-up time of posture detection the time that the escapement rotation detects loop 172 and judges the time (stage S43) of detecting escapement hairspring mechanism pivot angle once more.The judgement of the detection time of escapement hairspring mechanism pivot angle is for example undertaken by timer.The setting-up time that should carry out the rotation detection of escapement is stored in escapement in advance and revolves in the detection loop 172.
The setting-up time that should carry out the rotation detection of escapement hairspring mechanism for example is about 1 hour.It is identical with above-mentioned setting-up time to carry out the setting-up time that the rotation of escapement hairspring mechanism detects.
When escapement Spin Control loop 306 judges that process should not carried out the setting-up time of posture detection, return stage S42.Then, repeat to judge and to carry out the action of the detection time of posture detection.
When the setting-up time that has passed through the detection pivot angle is judged in escapement rotation detection loop 172, return stage S33.
When escapement rotation detection loop 172 judges that process detects the setting-up time of pivot angle, return stage S58.
Escapement Spin Control loop 306 should make the relation between the pivot angle of time of coil 180a, 108b conducting and escapement hairspring mechanism 140 obtain by experiment in advance, and its result is stored in the escapement Spin Control loop 306 in advance.
The pivot angle set angle of escapement hairspring mechanism 140 is stored in the escapement Spin Control loop 406 in advance.The pivot angle set angle of escapement hairspring mechanism 140 for example is 180 degree, and the pivot angle set angle of escapement hairspring mechanism 140 is preferably 150～210 degree.
When in stage S34, the pivot angle that escapement hairspring mechanisms 140 are judged in escapement Spin Control loop 306 is during less than set angle, and the escapement rotation detects loop 272 makes the action to static capacity portion impressed voltage stop (stage S36).In this case, escapement Spin Control loop 306 does not make coil 108a, 108b conducting (stage S37).
Then, return stage S32.Repeat to judge the action of detection time.
Therefore, in mechanical clock of the present invention, can control the pivot angle of escapement hairspring mechanism 140 correctly, effectively.
