Display mechanism with rollers for watches
A timepiece display mechanism for a watch includes a roller pivoting about a main axis and including flaps, each pivoting about a secondary axis parallel to the main axis and having two faces, a first driver for pivoting the roller about the main axis, and a second driver for pivoting a flap about its secondary axis, in a determined position of this secondary axis relative to the main axis, and which include, at each flap, a drive pinion cooperating with a controller to modify, in sequence or continuously, the position of the successive flaps of the same roller or to modify, on demand, the position of a specific flap.
Linear clock
A linear clock and method of indicating the time includes twelve linearly arranged regions wherein each region includes an indicator termed a marker, which is capable of representing a unique hour with a twelve hour cycle or a block of time equal to a five minute increment. Interspersed with the twelve linearly arranged regions is a group of four indicators that are capable of representing a one-minute increment and collectively, up to four minutes.
Watch, in particular wrist watch
A watch is described, in particular a wrist watch, having a housing (1), having a dial (3) arranged in the housing (1), having at least one endless conveyor (8), which is guided around two deflection guides (7) having deflection axes parallel to the dial (3), for at least one hand (5), and having a drive for the endless conveyor (8). To provide advantageous structural conditions it is proposed that the dial (3) extending between the two sides of the endless conveyor (8) be mounted on a mount (11), which is either provided laterally outside the orbit of the hand (5) or is fastened laterally outside the orbit of the hand (5).
WATCH, IN PARTICULAR WRIST WATCH
A watch is described, in particular a wrist watch, having a housing (1), having a dial (3) arranged in the housing (1), having at least one endless conveyor (8), which is guided around two deflection guides (7) having deflection axes parallel to the dial (3), for at least one hand (5), and having a drive for the endless conveyor (8). To provide advantageous structural conditions it is proposed that the dial (3) extending between the two sides of the endless conveyor (8) be mounted on a mount (11), which is either provided laterally outside the orbit of the hand (5) or is fastened laterally outside the orbit of the hand (5).
Portable device comprising decorative elements driven by invisible driving means, in a liquid
A decorative, wearable system includes at least one decorative element mechanically and moveably suspended in a liquid by mechanical fixation elements and actuated by invisible mechanism(s). The liquid shares a substantially similar refraction index as at least one of mechanical fixation elements and/or actuation mechanisms.
