  • Patent number: 11822290
    Abstract: A horological Tourbillon comprising A) a cage CC rotating around an axis (ZC), divided in two half-cages (1a,b) by a medial plane (RC) perpendicular to the rotation axis (ZC); a double tourbillon (TD) with two regulation systems each made of an oscillator (OSa,b), a lever and it's escapement mobile (MEa,b), installed in their respective half-cage (1a, 1b); the two regulation systems being made of identical elements but organized in an opposite configuration and installed in each half-cage (1a, 1b) symmetrically relatively to the medial plan (RC) so that, in the medial plane, the rotation direction of the two escapement mobiles (MEa,b) are identical; each regulation system has a compensating wheel (RFa,b) that meshes with its escapement mobile (MEa,b); B) a differential (D) made of: two outputs S (a,b) each meshing into a compensating wheel (RFa,b), thus creating a position compensation; one input pinion (ED) linked to the horological mechanism (MH); C) one linkage (EC) between the horological mechanism (MH) a

  • Patent number: 11782388
    Abstract: Horological device (100) comprising two oscillators (1a,b) with rotating and spiral (12a,b) balance wheels (11a,b), coupled for their synchronization. The oscillators (1a,b) are identical and their axles (22a,b) are parallel. The spirals (12a,b) are connected to a shared stud (13) by a link in the same direction but in the opposite direction, the stud being fixed to the rest of the horological movement.
