Timepiece movement (1) comprising:—a main frame (3) acting as a support for a drive source (5) and for at least one base gear train (7) designed to be driven by the drive source (5);—at least one flying bridge (11) cantilever-mounted on an element of the main frame (3) and extending in superposition on the latter, characterized in that the flying bridge (11) supports at least one functional element (13; 9) kinematically linked to the base gear train (7) via a flying gear train (17, 17a, 17b, 17c, 17d), and in that the functional element (13; 9) and at least some elements of the flying gear train (17a, 17b, 17c, 17d) are entirely supported on the flying bridge (11).

A cage (5) for separating rolling bodies (2) for a bearing (1), particularly for a timepiece bearing, the cage having first openings (50) for receiving rolling bodies and at least one first contact zone (56) intended to come into contact with a bearing ring and having at least one first hollow formation (52).

The invention relates to an oscillating weight (1) with variable geometry for a timepiece mechanism, comprising: a first and a second part (10; 20), an axis of rotation (40) shared by the first and the second part (10; 20), at least one part (10; 20) being arranged in order to oscillate about said axis of rotation, a differential mechanism (30) connected to the first and to the second part (10; 20) so as to vary the position of one part relative to the other through a rotational movement of at least one of the parts about the axis of rotation (40).

Owing to the presence of the differential mechanism (30), the user of the watch can vary the geometry of the oscillating weight (1) directly and therefore the position of its centre of gravity, and thus adapt it to their lifestyle (for example, sport mode, normal mode).

A transmission horological mechanism is disclosed, which includes: a transmission wheel including a driving plate, intended to pivot about a first axis of rotation in response to the movements of a driving wheel; and a link organ having a flexible portion and bearing a unidirectional transmission organ arranged to cooperate with an output wheel intended to drive a driven wheel when the driving wheel is displaced in a first direction of displacement. The link organ includes: a base secured to the driving plate and arranged to exhibit a rotational movement about the first fixed axis of rotation, in response to the movements of the driving wheel; and a first arm extending from the base and bearing the unidirectional transmission organ at its distal end, the flexible portion being arranged on the first arm.

An oscillating weight (I) with variable geometry for a timepiece mechanism has a first and a second part (10; 20), and an axis of rotation (40) shared by the first and the second part (10; 20). At least one part (10; 20) is arranged in order to oscillate about the axis of rotation. A differential mechanism (30) is connected to the first and to the second part (10; 20) so as to vary the position of one part relative to the other through a rotational movement of at least one of the parts about the axis of rotation (40).

A monolithic component for a timepiece, in particular for a mechanical timepiece, comprising at least one rigid portion and an elastically flexible portion and designed to transmit the movement of an actuator of the timepiece to a driven part of the timepiece. The monolithic component comprises a rigid frame, a first rigid driving member, and a first elastically flexible structure connecting said frame to said first driving member. The first elastically flexible structure is configured in a manner such as to provide a displacement of said first driving member with at least two degrees of freedom, said displacement being caused as a result of the actuator coming into contact with said first driving member.
