Mechanical watch movement broken how to do?
Mechanical watches can be divided into two kinds of manual chain and automatic chain according to the way of winding. The old mechanical watches are generally manual, and now the mechanical watches are mainly automatic.
The two mechanical power sources are based on the movement of the spring for power, drive the gear and then push the needle, but the power source is different.
Today Xiaobian for you to introduce the reasons why the mechanical watch does not go, before introducing the specific reasons, we first to understand the working principle of the mechanical watch: the spring is to provide energy for the watch parts, circle around in the box.
Use the mill square slot on the shaft to wind up.
The square groove of the shaft is driven by the upper mechanism.
Watch in the case of no cover, that is, can travel 36 to 50 hours or so.
Because the spring withstands the obvious stress, often leads to fracture, therefore, at present, the use of alloy materials, make mechanical watch spring almost not broken.
The spring stores a certain amount of energy to distribute evenly to the oscillator in small amounts.
To this end, the energy provided is passed through the wheel train group, which reduces the transmission force by the same proportion while increasing the number of turns.
The wheel train group includes 4 wheels and 4 gears, and the last 3 wheels are riveted on the first 3 gears.
The first wheel is a box wheel with circumferential milling teeth.
The last wheel is the escapement gear, the escapement riveted on the gear.
The escapement wheel belongs to the distribution mechanism and counter.
One turn of the strip wheel takes about 6 hours, during which time the escapement gear and the escapement wheel turn about 3600 times.
This number represents the ratio of rotation frequency between the first wheel and the last wheel.
The ratio is always within this value range.
Generally try to keep the gears and dividers in the center of the watch and turn once per hour.
In fact, there are many reasons why the mechanical watch does not go, such as: knock against, movement gear dislocation, watch by magnetic, use time is long oil sludge dry and so on, generally divided into two kinds, the first is because of lack of kinetic energy.
The second is due to the failure of the mechanical watch.
So do not find the mechanical watch does not go when not too panic, first to distinguish is belong to what kind of problem.
Some people may buy a fully automatic mechanical watch, think that since it is fully automatic sure is not need to tube, in fact, this is a misunderstanding.
Automatic mechanical watch, by automatic to any direction of rotation can be wound up automatically on the function of the mechanism running (visible in the transparent bottom table cover table).
It can be imagined that only the watch is worn on the hand, with the arm movement, the automatic tuo also rotates to generate energy.
General automatic watches should be worn on the hand for more than 8 hours a day to make up the amount of spring, but not absolutely.
Now it is common to work in the office, watch often stop phenomenon, in addition to the movement, because the wearer’s lack of exercise, can not give enough energy to the spring, such as this reason, can be used to wind up the method to make up.
Conclusion: If the mechanical watch does not go, through the inspection of the watch is not because of the lack of kinetic energy, that is, the mechanical watch failure, need to be sent to the professional maintenance personnel to repair.
Remember not to disassemble the mechanical watch yourself.
The above is a small series to introduce you to the problem of how to do mechanical watch movement broken, more knowledge please pay attention to.
