CHRONOGRAPH REPEATER MECHANISM WITH SAFETY FUNCTION
Acoustic timepiece display mechanism with a chronograph repeater for the acoustic display, by a striking mechanism, of a duration measured by a chronograph mechanism, this striking mechanism including a winding lever for driving a rack to move a striking rack in order to read the magnitude concerned and to release a corresponding strike function, this acoustic display mechanism includes, between the mechanism controlling the chronograph mechanism and the winding lever, a mechanical connection arranged, depending on the position of a control cam of the chronograph mechanism indirectly defining a variable secondary direction of the winding lever, to isolate or not to isolate the winding lever from a winding pusher operated in a single pusher direction by a user to set off the acoustic display of the timed duration.
CHRONOGRAPH REPEATER MECHANISM WITH SAFETY FUNCTION
An acoustic timepiece display mechanism includes a chronograph repeater for the acoustic display, by a striking mechanism, of a duration measured by a chronograph mechanism. The striking mechanism includes a winding lever for driving a rack to move a striking unit including a rack pinion integral with a striking ratchet, to move a striking rack to read the magnitude concerned and to release a corresponding strike function. The acoustic display mechanism includes, between a control mechanism included in the chronograph mechanism and the winding lever, a safety mechanism arranged, depending on the position of the strike wheel set, to allow or prevent travel of an operating lever of the control mechanism of the chronograph mechanism, which operating lever is arranged to be pivoted under the action of a chronograph start pusher.
ACOUSTIC TIMEPIECE DISPLAY MECHANISM, PARTICULARLY A CHRONOGRAPH REPEATER
A timepiece display mechanism includes a rotating display member for displaying a magnitude other than the current time of day, or a position in a cycle. The rotating display member is integral in rotation with a snail cooperating with the beak of a striking rack included in a striking mechanism integrated in or juxtaposed with this display mechanism, to strike a numerical value characteristic of this magnitude, or respectively of this position. The display mechanism is more particularly a chronograph mechanism including a seconds snail integral with a main chronograph wheel, for counting the seconds and cooperating with a seconds rack, and a minute snail integral with a minute counter wheel for counting the minutes and cooperating with a minute rack, in order, after timing a duration, to strike the minutes and seconds of the timed duration.
Electronic device
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a frame and a display member exposed through an opening of the frame. The display member includes a first glass exposed through the opening to an outside and a second glass disposed on a surface of the first glass. The second glass includes an area formed to project beyond an edge of the first glass such that the area is positioned inside the frame.

Timepiece pallet fork for mechanical oscillator and timepiece time-delay release mechanism
A timepiece pallet fork for a mechanical oscillator including an arbor allowing the timepiece pallet fork to oscillate about a pivot axis, first and second pallets configured to alternatively engage with an escapement wheel when the timepiece pallet fork oscillates, the first pallet being displaceable with respect to the arbor by absorption of energy, the first pallet being displaceable from a first upstream waiting position to a first downstream stopping end position which is offset compared to the first upstream waiting position, and a first arm having an intermediate section including an elastic bend, one end of the arm being fixed with respect to the arbor to form a first fixed end, the intermediate section of the first arm being located between the first fixed end and the first pallet and returning the first pallet towards the first upstream waiting position by the intermediate section being elastically deformable from a first configuration into a second configuration.
