Striking mechanism unit (2) for a repeater striking mechanism (100), including a drive plate (3) with a pipe (4) pivoting about an axis (D) and carrying a hook (6) provided with a beak (6A), a detent ratchet (9) pivoting about said axis (D) carrying a pin (8) which is in abutment, through a hole (3A) in said plate (3), on said hook (6) against a spring (7) for the operation thereof when said detent ratchet (9) is pivoting, and depending on the position thereof, said beak (6A) allows or prevents the pivoting of a pipe ratchet (11) of a downstream stage (1) which pivots integrally with a first hour ratchet (13).Said downstream stage (1) includes a second hour ratchet (15) which pivots about said axis (D) and whose toothing is inclined in the same direction as that of said first hour ratchet (13).
摘要:
A wearable electronic device for conveying information in an analog manner at least in part by the use of at least one display hand positioned on the dial side of a dial, wherein the wearable electronic device uses the display hand(s) to convey information that is stored in the controller of the device and/or provided by sensors and/or an external transmitter. An actuation mechanism, preferably a stepper motor, is used to rotate the display hands in the clockwise and/or counterclockwise directions in predefined increments to convey the information.

In a timekeeping device, a method for displaying a time in each of a plurality of locations, wherein the timekeeping device has stored therein for each of the plurality of locations a respective seasonal offset relative to a standard time, wherein the timekeeping device comprises (i) a display indicator for indicating a location selected from the plurality of locations and (ii) seasonal adjustment means for adjusting the time in the selected location by the seasonal offset; wherein the method comprises the steps of selecting a location from the plurality of locations; actuating a seasonal adjuster to account for a change of seasons; and displaying the time, adjusted for the seasonal offset. A timekeeping device that comprises a display for displaying time information; a display indicator for indicating a location selected from the plurality of locations; adjustment means for adjusting the time in the selected location by the time offset; actuation means for actuating the adjustment means; and a time indicator for displaying on the display, a time in the location, which reflects the time offset, is also provided.
摘要:
A watch comprising civil time display means (12, 16), solar time display means (13, 18) and means of correction (24, 34, 36) of the displays. In this watch, the means of correction are arranged in such a way as to allow the relative desynchronization of the civil time and solar time display means. It furthermore comprises means for displaying this desynchronization (20, 22).
