The striking or musical watch comprises a watch case, which comprises a case middle and a back attached to the case middle in a sealed manner and in a detachable manner, a glass closing the case in a sealed manner, a watch movement or a watch electronic module retained in the interior of the watch case and equipped with a sonic vibration generator intended to be activated during specific periods in order to produce a sound or music. The watch comprises at least one acoustic radiation membrane made at least in part of wood or a wood composite material and attached to a part of the case in order to radiate the sound produced by the sonic vibration generator towards the exterior of the case.

Timepiece striking mechanism including control means, releasable by a timepiece movement or by a user, and arranged to start a melody or striking sound, and melody selection means including a lever for selecting a selector mechanism arranged to allow the movement of a specific control-piece in order to perform a specific melody or striking sound, this striking mechanism including a safety mechanism for preventing the selection or the actuation of a melody or striking sound when a melody or striking sound is already being performed, this safety mechanism includes, for each control piece, a cam arranged to prevent the operation of the melody selection means by immobilizing the lever, when its control piece has started to perform a melody or striking sound.

A striking mechanism is provided, including a hammer including an elastic stop that is needle-shaped, and an eccentric supporting the stop in a rest position of the hammer.

A mechanical timer for setting a snooze time for an alarm mechanism controlling a mechanical actuator cooperating with a striking mechanism controlled by a timepiece movement, including a first control able to be actuated at a first moment by a user during the playing of an alarm chime to disengage the actuator and momentarily stop the chime, and including a timer arranged to automatically cause the alarm chime to play again at a second moment, after a predefined duration from the first moment, this timer including a second control able to be actuated by a user to set this predefined duration, and a release cam indirectly controlled by the first control and arranged to control the pivoting of a hammer lever, which, depending on its angular position, releases or locks the actuator to allow or respectively prevent the playing of an alarm chime.

A watch including a timepiece striking mechanism, including a drive mechanism for driving and controlling the striking mechanism to operate at least one rigid hammer, movable between a first winding position and a second striking position, the hammer being arranged to strike a gong in the second striking position, this hammer including at least one magnetized portion arranged to cooperate with at least one actuator arranged to be driven in motion by the drive mechanism, the actuator including an alternating series of first areas and second areas with different magnetic field characteristics from each other, to whose influence the magnetized portion is successively subjected on order to trigger, as the case may be, the winding of the hammer or the striking of the hammer on the gong.

An impact striking mechanism (1), in particular for a horological movement (3), the mechanism (1) including at least one resonant element (5) enabling a sound to be emitted when it is struck, and a hammer (8) capable of moving between a rest position (9) and a strike position (11) in which it strikes the resonant element (5) in order to cause it to vibrate, characterised in that it comprises a system for actuating the hammer (8) including a movable impactor (16, 17, 18) configured to move from a release position (19) to an impact position (21), in which it at least partially transmits the momentum thereof to the hammer (8) to move it from the rest position (9) thereof to the strike position (11) thereof in order to cause the resonant element (5) to vibrate.

One aspect of the invention relates to a horological assembly (2000) including a watch (1000) and an adjustment tool (200) for driving, without direct contact, a first mobile (1) internal to the watch (1000) throughout its case, for adjustment and/or recharging, the adjustment tool (200) including first magnetic areas (210) cooperating in attraction or repulsion with the first mobile (1) which is pivotably and axially movable about a first axis (D1) against an elastic return means (5) fastened to the case (10), between an active position in which the adjustment tool (200) draws the first mobile (1) towards an end-of-travel surface (6) in an engaged position with a second mobile (7) inside the case (10), and an inactive position in the absence of the adjustment tool (200) and in which the elastic return means (5) keeps the first mobile (1) disengaged from the second mobile (7).

A mobile terminal and controlling method thereof are disclosed, by which a linked application can be activated if an output of an alarm is ended. The present invention includes a display unit, a memory configured to store a set alarm time, and a controller configured to control an alarm to be outputted if a current hour becomes the set alarm time and automatically activate a first linked application by ending an output of the alarm when a first user input is applied during outputting the alarm.
