Remontoire Constant Force Type Lookup
Return the purpose, spring, gravity, electric, escapement-location, train-location, or watch-use classification of a constant-force remontoire.
Description
A remontoire periodically replenishes a secondary energy store that drives the escapement or train.
A remontoire periodically replenishes a secondary energy store that drives the escapement or train. Its energy source and train location are separate classifications.1
Return the purpose, spring, gravity, electric, escapement-location, train-location, or watch-use classification of a constant-force remontoire.
When to use Remontoire Constant Force Type Lookup
Use this tool to return the purpose, spring, gravity, electric, escapement-location, train-location, or watch-use classification of a constant-force remontoire.
Choose a supported lookup focus or prepare the measured values, documented evidence and caller-selected limits requested. Use the exact field names and confirm their units or date format.
How to use Remontoire Constant Force Type Lookup and understand its results
- Choose a supported lookup focus or prepare the measured values, documented evidence and caller-selected limits requested. Use the exact field names and confirm their units or date format.
- Enter remontoireFocus using the field table and calculation rules, then run the tool.
- Read keyDate, remontoireFocus, verifiedStatement. The explanation below defines the units, signs, ordering and any flags or placeholder values.
- If the tool reports an input issue, correct the values and run it again. Apply the stated assumptions when interpreting a successfully returned result.
| Input field | Meaning | Value type; see rules below | Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| remontoireFocus | Remontoire constant-force type focus | string; one of "purpose", "spring", "gravity", "electric", "escapementLocation", "watchConstraint" | Required |
Select one supported focus from the input table and run the lookup. Match the exact case-sensitive enum value; no trimming, synonyms or free-text search is applied. Return the selected focus and its stored type/principle statement and context label. keyDate, where present, can be a historical date, period or contextual label rather than a parseable date.
result=stored entry for exact selected focus Units, indexing, boundary conditions and exceptional cases are defined in the calculation rules above.
| Output field | Meaning | Value type |
|---|---|---|
| keyDate | Type context | string |
| remontoireFocus | Remontoire constant-force type focus | string |
| verifiedStatement | Verified remontoire statement | string |
{
"input": {
"remontoireFocus": "purpose"
},
"output": {
"keyDate": "constant-force objective",
"remontoireFocus": "purpose",
"verifiedStatement": "A remontoire periodically stores energy in a secondary weight or spring so the escapement is driven from that source while the main source rewinds it."
}
}Limitations and assumptions
No mechanism is identified, constant torque measured or rate benefit calculated. Gravity and spring designs have different orientation constraints. This is a fixed local table; it does not fetch sources or update statements at runtime.
Numeric inputs must be finite. Follow the calculation-specific rules for overflow, underflow and exceptional cases. Extremely large text inputs are rejected. Missing required fields, extra fields, wrong value types and violations of the calculation rules are input errors.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Use Tourbillon Rotating Cage Principle Lookup: State the rotating-cage principle and calculate cage speed for a caller-supplied tourbillon rotation period. For a complementary task, use Power Reserve Torque Decay Curve Reader: Linearly interpolate torque on a caller-supplied measured curve and report its decline, ratio, and monotonicity.
