20110205854 | DISPLAY MECHANISM FOR A TIMEPIECE FOR DISPLAYING OR NOT DISPLAYING THE CURRENT TIME - A display mechanism for a clock movement for controlling the movements of a member for displaying at least one indication related to the time or to the operation of a timepiece, includes a cam having a periphery with a predetermined shape and driven by a base wheel, a lever pivotally mounted relative to a frame member of the movement, between an abutment position associated with an indication position of the display member, and a standby position associated with a predetermined alternative position of the display member. The lever bears a feeler intended for interaction with the periphery of the cam so as to define the abutment position, and the lever further bears a rake engaged with a pinion for driving the display member. An elastic element applies a force onto the lever for positioning it in the abutment position. The mechanism includes a mobile control member having at least a stable standby and a stable indication position. | 08-25-2011 |
