Durable and precise list of criteria for the coexistence of
The driving force from the spring box is to support the operation of the key mechanical watches. Although in theory, create a dynamic energy to reach 365 days or even longer watch is very simple, as long as there is enough wind for long enough you can, but to allow a smooth and lasting power is another matter, but also driving force will have a long walk when the issue of lack of precision.
At present, the brand is more than most to achieve long box spring powered, spring box is usually a driving force for full release, box spring began another driving force for release. Under way in the series is the work of two wind-up box at the same time. If a single box spring, as long as the increase in length can be winding, but the requirements of the spring material to be high, at the same time also need to put the corresponding lower frequency.
Watch the driving force to support the operation will be reduced in many places out, such as gear drive between each other at the time of friction. Therefore, the more complex form of high power consumption is also more. Due to the characteristics of metal, all the wind-up in the most compact and the upcoming release of all state travel time will result in error. Major brands are also a variety of ways to ensure the accuracy of the watch away.
Back can be seen from table 31 Languedoc special device constant. The device will spring into a smooth adjustment of the power output.
Kinetic energy of the oldest methods to achieve the longest
Languedoc (a. lange & sohne) so far the most durable power of a table – lange 31. It uses two 25 mm diameter of the spring box to store power, the two overlapping box spring, and inside each one of the winding up to 1.85 meters, the length of the ordinary wind 5 to 10 times.
Langer’s solution is known as Constant Power Plant (remontoire) old method. lange 31 by the l034.1 movement with Constant power plant will be perfect as a buffer, will be double-winding box l034.1 power adjustment for the miles upon miles of smooth output. Unique design of the levers, gears, a cam similar to the triangle, and a device in the fourth round of the spring, pose a constant of the main part of device. The Constant power regulator accumulation once every 10 seconds from the main driving force for spring-box, and then the average energy transfer through the column to the escapement wheel device.
31 days because we want to maintain the momentum, so it is necessary to wind-up is also very strong, this table and even the wind can lift 100 grams of the objects. This will also prevent it from winding conventional manner, can only rely on the exclusive use of the key at the watch behind the rotating square hole to tighten the spring.
Four Tourbillon box spring
Watch more of the functions, the more power consumption. Highly complex nature of the watch on the need for more power. Chopin table has a nine-luc quattro tourbillon power reserve. To achieve
Standards of this dynamic, Chopin table of four used to support box spring needed tourbillon power. Spring a group of boxes to stack the two to work together. In addition it also created a variable inertia balance wheel, also with the Breguet-style gossamer.
This is good hot and cold temperature resistance of the variable inertia balance wheel, hairspring balance wheel allows for the temperature difference caused by the error to a minimum. Placed round the top of the four adjustable weights to fine-tune the speed of travel time, fine-tuning device removed from the general impact of the gossamer, and one week of rotation per minute tourbillon, a watch can be eliminated under a different location due to gravity caused by error.
Patek Philippe (patek philippe) dial tourbillon 12:00 o’clock position is a 10-day dynamic disk storage instructions, for the 6:00 bell tourbillon device with a small seconds.
10 days tourbillon powered
Patek Philippe (patek philippe) 2003 was launched in the 10-day Tourbillon power, movement is ref.5100 developed from cal.28-20/200, Tourbillon added structure, then the formation of a new cal .28–20/222 (to 28 – 20 rec 10j ps irm). This table also has a classic one-minute tourbillon. Tourbillon structure composed of 72 parts, but the weight is only 300 mg. And parts assembly and adjust the accuracy of more complex, because the use of a patent in 1949 a unique balance wheel. Want to do a set of structural adjustment Tourbillon the best accuracy, the need for a specially trained senior technicians spent more than a week. Movement 28–20/222 box spring uses two synchronous rotation, when the full winding will be the adoption of the first suppression box spring system, the two spring from the box in order to prevent over-tighten the main spring .
Joinet Donnelly eccentric with sensitive Tuo driven before the wind-up specially designed, can be stored for five days of power watches.
Tighten the highest efficiency
Na-ru (francois-paul journe) automatic movement of the fp journe Although only 5-day power reserve, it is the world’s first five days are not required to wear and to ensure the accuracy of the automatic movement, but also solved the wearer hand the lower level of activity caused by the problem of inadequate tighten. fp journe improved octa winding movement within the device, make it work more efficient.
Movement based on a breakthrough
Has always been reserved for low-key Blancpain has introduced a dynamic storage for eight days with the basis of movement. cal.13r0 used titanium balance wheel, Breguet hairspring. In addition, this is only a basis for movement.
gossamer free retractable cal.13r0 balance wheel and balance wheel to fine-tune the mechanism, the use of the external balance wheel to adjust the swing speed adjustable screws. And other relatively fine-tuning mechanism, screw balance wheel fine-tuning can save space, but also not have to worry about the pace gooseneck pin or fine-tuning will be affected due to the impact of dislocation of the accuracy of the watch away. Another advantage is that the fine-tuning high efficiency, can be by adjusting the screws to adjust the tightness of the pendulum swing speed round. And will be designed as a square head screws, you can easily adjust the spreadsheet division.
