20190094807 · 2019-03-28 ·

A timepiece movement includes: an hour wheel and pinion; a minute wheel and pinion; a winding stem; a time difference correction train; a date indicator; and a date change mechanism. The hour wheel and pinion includes an hour wheel that rotates with the minute wheel and pinion, an hour jumper, an hour jumper pinion, and an hour wheel body that turns with the hour wheel via the hour jumper and hour jumper pinion, and turns with the time difference correction train. The date change mechanism includes a date change wheel that turns with the hour wheel body, a date change lever, a date change cam that flexes the date change lever by rotating with the date change wheel, and turns in response to the flexed date change lever spring force, and a date change pawl that rotates with the date change cam, and advances the date indicator.

Time difference correction mechanism and timepiece with time difference correction mechanism

A time difference correction mechanism includes a cylinder index star wheel that includes teeth and is connected to an hour hand, a cylinder index gear that includes teeth and is connected to a minute hand, the cylinder index gear provided radially outward of the cylinder index star wheel on a same plane as the teeth, a cylinder index lever disposed in the cylinder index gear on a same plane as the cylinder index gear, and a cylinder index spring disposed in the cylinder index gear on the same plane as the cylinder index gear. The cylinder index lever is movable between an engaged position where a claw engages with at least one of the teeth and a disengaged position where the claw disengages with the at least one of the teeth . The cylinder index spring is configured to bias the cylinder index lever to the engaged position.

Retrograde timepiece display mechanism provided with a safety device
12055895 · 2024-08-06 · ·

A retrograde timepiece display mechanism for a watch including a wheel for displaying information, this display wheel being driven by a drive finger carried by a wheel driven by a horological movement, in order to change the information displayed by the retrograde timepiece display mechanism from one value to the immediately following value, this retrograde timepiece display mechanism including also an intermediate correction device to manually correct the information provided by the retrograde timepiece display mechanism by acting on a correction finger which drives the display wheel, the retrograde timepiece display mechanism also including a safety device arranged to allow blocking the intermediate correction device by preventing the correction finger from driving the display wheel during a period of time when the change in the information displayed by the retrograde timepiece display mechanism occurs and when the drive finger is engaged with the display wheel.
