  • Calendar mechanism having means driving and correcting two indicators
    Patent number: 7170824
    Abstract: The calendar mechanism for a watch includes two rotating indicators provided with respective toothed wheels (11, 14), indicating for example the date and the phase of the moon or the day of the week, and drive lever (21) provided with two beaks (22, 23) for making the corresponding indicator move forward one step, depending upon whether it is pivoting in one direction or the other. The daily movement forward of the indicators is assured by a drive wheel (20) making one revolution per day and provided with a pin (38) which cooperates with a cam surface (33) of the drive lever. In order to correct the indicators independently of each other, a gear train (44) actuated by a control stem of the watch causes a correction wheel (50) to rotate, which acts on a nose of the drive lever (21) to pivot the latter selectively in one direction or the other.
