STRIKE MODE SELECTOR FOR A WATCH OR TIMEPIECE
20190033788 · 2019-01-31 · ·

Striking mechanism for a watch including: an hour snail driven by a movement, a strike wheel set including a detent ratchet and a repeating rack pinion, a pivoting hour-rack for reading this snail and driving this pinion, a click set in motion at each passing strike to drive this detent ratchet, with a mode selector mechanism for selection by the user of a particular strike mode, among distinct modes including a silent mode, defining the angular position of a cam having an external profile, wherein, in silent mode, the largest radius pushes back a beak of a silencing lever, to orient it into a position where its main arm moves this click away from this ratchet in order to disable every passing strike.

MECHANICAL TIMEPIECE MOVEMENT WITH RUNNING RESERVE DETECTION
20180095424 · 2018-04-05 · ·

The mechanical timepiece movement with running reserve indication comprises at least one barrel system with a winding output connected to a winding wheel of a differential gear, and with an unwinding output connected to an unwinding wheel of the differential gear. It includes a locking wheel set driven in rotation by an intermediate wheel of the differential gear. The locking wheel set is connected to a running reserve indicator to display the running reserve. The locking wheel set includes a locking element for coming into contact with the unwinding wheel of the differential gear when the running reserve is at zero, in order to lock the timepiece movement.
