RIGID WATCH COMPONENT FOR OSCILLATOR OR ESCAPEMENT AND CLOCKWORK CONTAINING SUCH COMPONENT Russian patent published in 2021 - IPC G04B19/00 

FIELD: watch components.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to rigid watch components for an oscillator mechanism or for a watch mechanism escapement. A rigid watch component (6, 7, 8) for an oscillator mechanism or for a watch mechanism escapement, extending along the main plane (P) and including at least a part made of a composite material (1), while the composite material (1) contains a matrix (2) and a plurality of nanotubes or nanowires (3) distributed in the matrix (2), while the nanotubes or nanowires (3) located next to each other and essentially parallel to the axis (A), essentially perpendicular to the plane (P) component, the matrix (2) contains a rigid material (4) for filling the gaps and bonding nanotubes or nanowires (3) with each other, and the material (4) has rigid mechanical properties to prevent elastic deformation of the component, while the said rigid material (4) contained in the component has Young's modulus greater than 2 GPa.

EFFECT: deformation reduction, including due to the absence of deflection, weight reduction due to the use of oxidation-resistant self-lubricating materials and the possibility of making them porous.
