20150220060 | ESCAPEMENT MECHANISM - An escapement mechanism for a timepiece, includes an escapement wheel ( | 08-06-2015 |
20110310712 | TIMEPIECE - A timepiece, including: a power source; a control member ( | 12-22-2011 |
20110116348 | TIMEPIECE WITH RINGING MECHANISM - A timepiece includes a movement and a current-time ringing mechanism that includes: an hour cam ( | 05-19-2011 |
20100322036 | TIMEPIECE HAND, MOVEMENT FOR DRIVING SUCH A HAND AND CORRESPONDING TIMEPIECE - A hand for a timepiece including a base is intended to be driven by a drive member of a clock movement to rotate about a first axis of rotation, the base being extended by a first index portion. The latter defines a support for a second index portion intended to be driven in terms of rotation with respect to the support about a second axis of rotation substantially perpendicular to the first axis of rotation by a drive mobile of the clock movement. The hand can be driven conventionally to display the time, in relation to graduations borne by a dial, while rotation of the second index portion allows additional information to be displayed which may be independent of the time. The resulting bulk of this structure is modest and visually de-clutters the display area of the timepiece while allowing several timekeeping complications to be displayed simultaneously. | 12-23-2010 |
20100046330 | HOUR INDICATING RINGING MECHANISM - A ringing mechanism includes: a power source ( | 02-25-2010 |
20090201770 | TIMEPIECE WITH A CALENDAR NUMBER MECHANISM - Timepiece with a perpetual calendar number mechanism, including: a time switch, a display device including a mobile ( | 08-13-2009 |
20080310258 | Clockwork Movement - A clockwork movement includes at least two control elements which are movable with respect to the frame thereof, are used for interacting with the same external control member in response to the activation thereof and are positioned remotely to each other in the direction of the clockwork movement thickness. The clockwork movement has an intermediate connecting unit which is rotatable about an axis substantially extending in the direction of the clockwork movement thickness, pivotally mounted on the clockwork movement frame element and provided with a reception area which is distant from the axis and exposable to a force produced in response to the control member activation. The intermediate unit also includes at least two contact areas each of which is used for producing a force on the corresponding control element and which are located on both sides of the reception area in the direction of the axis. | 12-18-2008 |
20080310257 | Time Piece Chronograph Clockwork Movement - A chronograph clockwork movement for measuring time includes a control lever actuatable by a first control member for alternatively activating or deactivating a time measurement, clutch elements for driving or not a second timer in response to an action produced on the control lever and selective locking members for locking the second timer in response to an action produced on the control lever. A lever and a hammer for resetting the second timer to zero are also provided. The clockwork movement is arranged in such a way that a user does not feel any difference, while measuring a time, whether the second timer is pre-set or not. The clockwork movement has a structure enabling to activate time measuring by delaying the effective departure of the second timer until an external resetting device controlling the lever is released in the rest position thereof. | 12-18-2008 |
20080298178 | Clockwork Movement - A clockwork movement includes a control member actuatable by a control lever in response to a user's action and having the form of a column wheel. The control member is rotatably mounted on the clockwork movement frame around an axis X, perpendicular thereto, for controlling first and second mechanisms exhibiting at least one movement function such as chronograph or alarm function. The control member includes rotationally fixable first, second and third parts which are mounted on a shaft at first, second and third levels, respectively, in a direction of the axis X for interacting with the control lever and for controlling the mechanisms. The shaft which is pivotally mounted with respect to the frame is arranged in at least two bearings, which are positioned remotely to each other for ensuring the shaft good stability, whereas the second and third parts are located on the both parts of the frame. | 12-04-2008 |
