A timepiece mechanism (100) for disengaging a gear train. The timepiece mechanism (100) includes a gear set (110), a disengagement member (120), a holding member (121) and a control member (130). The gear set (110) includes a first wheel (111), a second wheel (112) and an intermediate wheel (113) configured to be driven by or for driving the first wheel (111) and/or for driving the second wheel (112). The holding member (121) holds the first wheel (111) and/or the second wheel (112) when the disengagement member (120), controlled by the control member (130), moves the intermediate wheel (113) between an engaged position (101) and a disengaged position (102). Hence the timepiece mechanism (100) is held in position while disengaging the watch mechanism.

A timepiece with a striking mechanism having a detent ratchet cooperating with a passing strike actuation click controlled by a movement or a repeater click operable by a user, including an uncoupling lever preventing access of the click to the ratchet under the action of a reversing lever operable by a hand-setting stem, or by a main strike function or tune selection control member, or by a stopping mechanism, and including a safety device for preventing release during a strike mode or tune selection, arranged to prevent the release of any strike function by the movement or by a user, and which includes a release-prevention lever, the pivoting of which, under action on the main control member, moves any click away from the detent ratchet.

Timepiece with a movement driving an output wheel set, a passing strike or minute repeater mechanism, including a strike drive wheel set including a release ratchet with which cooperates a click for execution of a strike function, a strike uncoupling lever for moving any click away from the strike wheel set, including a first lever carrying the click and its spring, the output wheel set activating a second lever, the pivoting of which causes the first lever to pivot, the striking mechanism includes a torque smoothing jumper, which is returned by a first spring into abutment on the output wheel set, in order to use, when the second lever is not in mesh with the output wheel set, an equivalent torque to that which it uses when meshed with this output wheel set.

A repeater mechanism includes: an hour part, which is mobile between a resting position and a reading position; an hour spring that returns the hour part towards its reading position; a chain that is hooked to the hour part; a barrel that includes a shaft, a drum, a spring, a pulley that is mobile in rotation relative to the shaft and on which the chain is hooked, and also a ratchet that is integral in rotation with the barrel shaft and coupled to the pulley as long as the hour part exerts a traction force on the chain, and uncoupled from the pulley as soon as this traction force is cancelled out; and a pulley spring that is interposed between the ratchet and the pulley.

A mechanical watch movement includes a striking mechanism with a first cannon equipped with a first cannon pinion having at least one snail intended to cooperate with a sensor device of the striking mechanism. The watch also includes a second cannon equipped with a second cannon pinion and carrying the minute hand. The first cannon pinion engages with a going train of the movement and a minute wheel. The minute wheel engages with the first cannon pinion. A motion-work pinion engages with an hour wheel coaxial with the second cannon. The minute wheel is mounted on a lever arranged to pivot about a fixed point. An angular position of the lever may be adjusted by pivoting in such a way as to permit regulation of the position of the minute wheel with respect to the first cannon pinion and to the second cannon pinion.

Hence the timepiece mechanism (100) is held in position while disengaging the watch mechanism.

Stopping mechanism for a striking mechanism comprising energy storage means including a power reserve transmission wheel set, a strike wheel set comprising a detent ratchet, a main click for the passing strike function and/or a repeater release click, the stopping mechanism includes an uncoupling lever for moving the clicks away from the strike wheel set, by an instantaneous jump of a lever changing the position of the uncoupling lever, when the level of energy of the storage means crosses a predefined threshold, through the cooperation between a finger, driven by the power reserve transmission wheel set, and a jumper returned by a first spring, to bring the finger to bear on a fork of the lever to cause it to pivot abruptly by instantaneously changing the position of a lug with respect to a second spring.
