A zeroing device (200), including a first zeroing unit (71), which consists of a zeroing lever (12) having a zeroing lever arm (12a) and a zeroing lever latch (12b), wherein the zeroing lever latch (12b) has a first end (13) and a second end (14).

The zeroing device is characterized by a second zeroing unit (72) that is arranged at an offset to the first zeroing unit (71) in a Z coordinate direction (Z) and is in operative connection with the first zeroing unit (71). The second zeroing unit (72) may also include a pendulum rod (31), a hinge support (34), and a joint rod (35), wherein the pendulum rod (31) is rotatably attached to a cam (33) and to the joint rod (35) and wherein the joint rod (35) is rotatably attached to the hinge support (34) and rests against an eccentric (36) of the zeroing lever (12).

A zeroing device 100 for a chronograph, comprising at least one zeroing heart 110, 120, a zeroing unit 200, which has a zeroing lever arm 210 and a zeroing lever bar 220, the first end 221 of which is designed to contact the zeroing heart 110, 120, and a control means 130 which interacts with the zeroing lever arm 210, wherein a zeroing of the zeroing unit 200 is effectuated by actuating the control means 130. This enables low production and maintenance costs and allows the counter hands to be reset to the zero position in a safer, more durable, and user-friendly manner. The zeroing device 100 comprises a first compression spring 140 which is supported on the zeroing lever arm 210 and is operatively connected to the control means 130, and the control means 130 interacts indirectly, via the first compression spring 140, with the zeroing unit 200.

The timepiece comprises a timekeeping mechanism and a switching device arranged to switch this timekeeping mechanism between two states. The switching device comprises a movable switching organ and a rotary control organ arranged to be stepwise driven in order to successively occupy a plurality of distinct angular positions about its axis of rotation. The movable switching organ and the rotary control organ respectively support a first magnetic structure and a second magnetic structure arranged so that, in a first angular position of the rotary control organ, a first magnetic force acts on the switching organ in a given direction, and so that, in a second angular position of the rotary control organ, a second magnetic force acts on the switching organ in the opposite direction.

A chronograph having a second wheel with an entraining spring, a pulse-receiving wheel, wherein the entraining spring is constructed to engage with the pulse-receiving wheel, a pulse-transferring wheel, a minute wheel, wherein the minute wheel is in constant engagement with the pulse-transferring wheel, a second shaft, wherein the second wheel is rigidly connected to the second shaft, a multifunction shaft is orientated parallel to the second shaft, wherein the pulse-receiving wheel and the pulse-transferring wheel is rigidly connected to the multifunction shaft, and, a two-part constructed zeroing lever having a zeroing lever arm and a zeroing lever interlock, wherein the zeroing lever arm is supported in a rotatable manner around a pivotal point of a zeroing lever arm and the zeroing lever interlock is supported in a rotatable manner around a pivotal point of zeroing lever interlock.

A device for counting a number of time unit fractions or a number of movement unit fractions of a mobile member (1; 6; A2), the device a first including (i) a first cam (1) having a first surface (10: (ii) a second surface (20), the second surface being an abutment surface; (iii) a mobile support (4) urged by a spring (R4); (iv) a mobile pawl (3) mounted on the support (4) and urged by a spring (R3) toward the first surface, the pawl (3) being adapted to cooperate with one or the other of the first and second surfaces (10, 20) according to the position of the support (4); and (v) a control system (80) adapted, in a first or non-counting state of the control system, to maintain the support in a first position and, in a second or counting state of the control system, to allow the movement of the support.

A safety device for a striking-work including a first wheel, a second wheel and an actuating member. The first wheel is meshed which drives it in rotation about a shaft and it includes an abutment member. The second wheel is also in rotation about the shaft and is in contact with the abutment member. The second wheel includes a portion configured for an actuating member to act on the intermediate portion so as to move the second wheel.

A device for selecting and controlling functions of a horological movement, including a selector member arranged such that, when it is acted on, it causes a column wheel including a plurality of coaxial cams which are integral with one another for rotation as one, to rotate in a single direction of rotation, the device including a plurality of transmission yokes, each of which is arranged such that it bears against a cam specific thereto so as to be able to successively occupy, depending on the angular position of the cam, a rest position and an active position, each transmission yoke being configured such that when it occupies the active position, it is disposed in the path of a control member which is intended, when it is acted on from a rest position, to drive the transmission yoke located in an active position, towards a position for controlling a function specific thereto.

The invention relates to a chronograph mechanism (1; 201), for a timepiece movement, including a counter for a unit of time comprising:a display wheel capable of being rotated from a zero position,a return wheel, rotatable between an initial position, associated with the zero position of the display wheel, and a final position, the display wheel and the return wheel being arranged such that the return wheel pivots from its initial position to its final position when the display wheel makes one revolution,a resilient return member (20) arranged to act on the return wheel and to tend to return it to its initial position, the display wheel including a toothing arranged in mesh with the return wheel and having a truncated portion intended to allow the display wheel and the return wheel to be uncoupled on each complete revolution of the display wheel.
