- the flaps of the second level 620 include a short arm 220 and a blade 221 forming a bend 222 with the arm 220, the blade 221 as such representing the petal of the flower 1.
- the flap 22 is in its normal position or in its retracted position.
- actuation of the control member 400 causes the first and second 610 and 620 drive levels to rotate in a counter-clockwise direction.
- the flaps 2 go from their normal state to their retracted state by pivoting also in the counterclockwise direction.
- a first 81 and a second 82 reset fingers respectively secured to the first 710 and the second 720 positioning boards. These reset fingers are directly superimposed and are arranged to be actuated via the reset member in the normal state 500, in the second direction of rotation, as will be described in more detail later.
- flaps 2 arranged to be juxtaposed in the representation of the flower 1, being oriented along two different radii, with respect to the center of the timepiece which defines the center of the flower 1.
- a plurality of similar axes are distributed around the timepiece, making it possible to radially distribute a series of petals.
- the arrangement of the shutters 2 on two distinct levels allows a superposition of the shutters 2 of the same axis, as well as their movement independently of one another and without collision.
- the arms and blades are of course dimensioned and positioned to avoid any collision with the neighboring axes.
- the control wheel 40 is also designed to advance the display member 300 with each actuation of the control member 400.
- the control wheel 40 also comprises, integral with the drive star 43, a wheel 42 in kinematic connection with a second pinion 420 secured to a cam 45.

- the skilled person can adapt the display member 300 according to his convenience. It may in particular use a needle, or an index moving relative to fixed indications. In the case of a ring 320, the indications can appear successively through a window or in a defined display area.
- the ring 320 may advantageously be used to form the cover behind which the flaps 2 are positioned when in their retracted state. Note that the cache could also be made directly by part of the dial.
- the reset member 500 of the flaps 2 takes the form of a second pusher 501, also accessible from outside the timepiece by a user.
- the pusher 501 is also rotatably mounted on the frame of the timepiece.
- the second pusher 501 has two branches for actuating two different locations of the mechanism.
- a first 91 of these branches is terminated by a rake 90 engaged with a double pinion 93, which forms a vertical return.
- This double gear 93 is also engaged with a toothed sector 94 secured to a third drive level 630, superimposed on, but independent of, the first 610 and second 620 drive levels.
- the third drive level 630 includes a third set of lugs 633 arranged to cooperate unidirectionally, simultaneously with the first 81 and second 82 reset fingers, of all axes.
- the second branch 92 of the second 501 pusher ends with a first lever 95 arranged to cooperate with a second lever 96 that includes the display rocker 310.
- the first lever 95 crosses the second lever 96 and actuates the display rocker 310 to rotate it, against the force exerted by the spring member 32. Accordingly, the probe 31 is no longer supported on the periphery of the cam 45.
- the control wheel 40 and the display member 300 are then disconnected.
- the position of the display member 300 is not influenced by the rotation of the flaps 2, when they are returned to their normal state, despite the rotation of the cam 45.
- the display rocker 310 When the display rocker 310 is subjected to the action of the second pusher 501, it can be provided that the display member 300 then has an additional position, called the rest position, in which none of the indications related to the set is presented. In a preferred embodiment, it will be possible to provide a locking system 100 of the display member 300 that can be engaged by the reset member 500.

- the sliding surface 13 allows the display latch 310 to pivot freely.
- the action of the second pusher 501 brings the crampon 11 into the hooking position, illustrated on the figure 6 .
- the crampon 11 is then subjected to the action of the latch 10.
- the springs of the latch respectively latch 110 and display 310, maintain the display latch 310 locked by the latch 110, even when the second pusher 501 returns to his rest position ( figure 7 ).
- the display of the rest position is thus secure, especially with respect to possible shocks that would suffer the timepiece.
- the latch 110 also comprises an unlocking portion 120. This is arranged to be actuated by a release pin 403 secured to the control member 400.
- the release finger 403 will drive the latch 110 in the opposite direction of the clockwise, thus releasing the display latch 310 which will come to be positioned, by its probe 31, on the periphery of the cam 45.
- each actuation of the control member 400 actuates a ring system 900 or the striking of a stamp 910 by a hammer 920.
- a system 900 is shown in FIG. figure 8 .
- a ringing star 930 is mounted integral with the second pinion 420 and the cam 45. It is thus rotated each time the first pusher 401 is actuated.
- the ringing star 930 is arranged in such a way as to actuate the lifting of a ring. hammer 920. According to the example, and because of the distance between the striking star 930 of the lift 920, these two elements are connected by a system of articulated levers 940.
- the hammer 920 is pivotally mounted along an axis parallel to the plane of the frame 960 of the timepiece, the hammer 920 striking the stamp 910 in a substantially vertical direction.

- the shutters 2 are all in their normal position, and a flower 1 with all its petals is represented.
- the display rocker 310 is unlocked.
- the first set of lugs 611 and the second set of lugs 622 will operate either a flap of the first level 21 or a flap of the second level 22, one part of each level and this, irregularly.
- This or these component (s) is / are then brought (s) in their retracted state.
- the display member 300 indicates one of the available indications.
- the position initially displayed varies according to the position of the cam 45 at the end of the previous game. This makes it possible to obtain a greater variability of the combinations and results of the game.
- the number of combinations and the interest of the game are also reinforced by the fact that the training cams 51 and 52 have differentiated and irregular actions on the shutters 2.
- a heart could be arranged integrally with the cam 45, if one still wanted to start the game by displaying the indication "a little", a hammer 46 cooperating with the cam 45 during a reset normal shutters 2.
- a ring also sounds when the control member 400 is actuated.
- the user repeats the operations described above, until the flower 1 no longer has a petal and all the shutters 2 are in their retracted state.
- the user can then read the indication displayed by the display member 300.
- the user returns all the shutters 2 to their normal position and the display member 300 to its rest position.
- the display latch 310 is locked, the game is ready for a new game that can start immediately or later.
- the number of positions of the display disc 320 should be increased, for example by duplicating each inscription or only some of them. It will also be noted that those skilled in the art will be able to adapt the design of the drive cams, so as to optimize according to their choice or their constraints, the sequence of retraction of the shutters 2.

Description
La présente invention se rapporte au domaine de l'horlogerie. Elle concerne, plus particulièrement, une pièce d'horlogerie comportant une représentation de fleur.The present invention relates to the field of watchmaking. It relates, more particularly, a timepiece comprising a flower representation.
En matière d'horlogerie, il existe peu de complications particulièrement destinées aux montres féminines. La plupart du temps, les pièces compliquées destinées à un public féminin, se contentent de décliner dans un mouvement de taille réduite, les mêmes complications que celles qui ornent classiquement les montres pour hommes. Fréquemment, on joue aussi sur l'habillage, pour conférer un design plus raffiné ou plus décoré.In terms of watchmaking, there are few complications particularly for women's watches. Most of the time, the complicated pieces intended for a female audience, are content to decline in a movement of reduced size, the same complications that those classically adorn the men's watches. Frequently, one also plays on the dressing, to confer a more refined or more decorated design.
Parmi les symboles utilisés pour donner un style féminin à une pièce d'horlogerie, la fleur est probablement le symbole le plus répandu. On connaît ainsi des boîtes en forme de fleur, ou des couvercles en forme de fleur agencés pour recouvrir la montre et pour s'ouvrir en laissant visible des organes d'affichage. On a également disposé des représentations florales plus ou moins compliquées, sur le cadran de la montre. La plupart du temps, ces représentations sont statiques.Among the symbols used to give a feminine style to a timepiece, the flower is probably the most common symbol. There are thus known flower-shaped boxes, or flower-shaped lids arranged to cover the watch and to open leaving visible display members. We have also arranged more or less complicated floral representations on the dial of the watch. Most of the time, these representations are static.
Plus récemment, il a été proposé de réaliser une masse oscillante sous forme de fleur stylisée, mobile et visible du côté cadran. L'effet esthétique ainsi conféré est particulièrement intéressant et réussi, bien que l'animation proposée soit relativement simple.More recently, it has been proposed to produce an oscillating mass in the form of a stylized flower, mobile and visible on the dial side. The aesthetic effect thus conferred is particularly interesting and successful, although the animation proposed is relatively simple.
Par ailleurs, on connaît également des documents, tels
La présente invention a pour but de proposer une pièce d'horlogerie comportant une représentation de fleur, particulièrement originale et à même d'offrir une montre féminine dotée d'une vraie complication exclusive, poétique et conférant une animation éblouissante.The object of the present invention is to propose a timepiece comprising a flower representation, which is particularly original and capable of to offer a feminine watch endowed with a real exclusive, poetic complication and conferring a dazzling animation.
De façon plus précise, l'invention concerne une pièce d'horlogerie telle que proposée dans les revendications.More specifically, the invention relates to a timepiece as proposed in the claims.

shutter 2 is retracted behind a cover; such a state is represented in particular infigure 3 , although the cache is not shown.
La pièce d'horlogerie selon l'invention comprend encore un organe d'affichage 300 à plusieurs positions, chacune d'elle étant susceptible d'apparaître successivement dans un guichet de la pièce d'horlogerie.The timepiece according to the invention also comprises a
Pour actionner les volets 2 et l'organe d'affichage 300, la pièce d'horlogerie selon l'invention comprend également un organe de commande 400 agencé de manière à commander simultanément le passage d'au moins un volet 2, de son état normal à son état escamoté, et le changement de position de l'organe d'affichage 300.To actuate the
Enfin, un organe de remise à l'état normal 500 de l'ensemble des volets 2 est prévu pour faire passer les volets 2 de leur état « escamoté » à leur état « normal ».Finally, a
Comme on le comprendra à la lecture de la description qui va suivre, la pièce d'horlogerie selon l'invention permet de reproduire mécaniquement et avec intérêt le jeu de "l'effeuillage de Marguerite", qui consiste à arracher progressivement les pétales d'une fleur, typiquement une Marguerite, en énonçant à chaque arrachage l'une des parties de la phrase : « Il/Elle m'aime, un peu, beaucoup, passionnément, à la folie, pas du tout. ».As will be understood from reading the description which follows, the timepiece according to the invention allows to reproduce mechanically and with interest the game of "stripping of Marguerite", which consists of gradually tearing the petals of a flower, typically a daisy, stating with each grubbing one part of the sentence: "He / she loves me, a little, a lot, passionately, to madness, not at all. ".
Nous allons maintenant décrire un mode de réalisation préféré d'une pièce d'horlogerie selon l'invention.We will now describe a preferred embodiment of a timepiece according to the invention.
En référence à la
Le bec d'actuation 402 est agencé pour coopérer avec une étoile d'entraînement 41 d'un mobile de commande 40 et le faire avancer d'un pas à chaque actionnement du poussoir 401. Le mobile de commande 40 comprend également, solidaire de l'étoile d'entraînement 41, un premier pignon 410 qui forme le premier élément d'une liaison cinématique permettant le passage des volets 2 de leur état normal à leur état escamoté.The
Comme on peut le voir de la
Chacun des trains de transmission est respectivement connecté à un premier 610 et à un deuxième 620 niveaux d'entraînement, formés chacun par une bague munie d'une denture intérieure et entourant de manière concentrique toute la pièce d'horlogerie. Comme on peut mieux le voir sur la
Toujours en référence à la
D'autre part, la première planche 710 de positionnement comprend deux encoches 72, avec lesquelles peut coopérer un premier sautoir 73. Un premier volet 21 est monté sur l'axe 63, solidairement de la première planche de positionnement 710. Pour des raisons de construction, ce premier volet 21 est situé à l'extrémité opposée de l'axe 63 par rapport à la première planche de positionnement 710. Les volets du premier niveau 610, correspondant à un niveau supérieur en référence au cadran de la pièce d'horlogerie, comprennent un bras long 210 et une pale 211 formant un coude 212 avec le bras 210, la pale 211 en tant que telle représentant le pétale de la fleur 1. En fonction de l'encoche 72 avec laquelle coopère le sautoir 73, le volet 21 est dans sa position normale ou dans sa position escamotée.On the other hand, the
De manière similaire à ce qui vient d'être décrit, on a également sur cet axe 63, une deuxième planche de positionnement 720 qui comprend d'une part, un doigt 74 conformé de manière à pouvoir coopérer avec la deuxième série d'ergots 622 du deuxième niveau d'entraînement 620 de manière unidirectionnelle. D'autre part, la deuxième planche de positionnement 720 comprend deux encoches, avec lesquelles peut coopérer un deuxième sautoir 75. Un deuxième volet 22 est monté sur l'axe 63, solidairement de la deuxième planche de positionnement 720. Pour des raisons de construction, la deuxième planche de positionnement 720 et le deuxième volet 22 sont situés entre la première planche de positionnement 710 et le premier volet 21. Les volets du deuxième niveau 620, correspondant à un niveau inférieur en référence au cadran de la pièce d'horlogerie et en référence au premier niveau 610, comprennent un bras court 220 et une pale 221 formant un coude 222 avec le bras 220, la pale 221 en tant que telle représentant le pétale de la fleur 1. En fonction de l'encoche avec laquelle coopère le sautoir 75, le volet 22 est dans sa position normale ou dans sa position escamotée.Similarly to what has just been described, there is also on this
En référence au dessin, on peut voir qu'un actionnement de l'organe de commande 400 entraîne une rotation des premier 610 et deuxième 620 niveaux d'entraînement dans le sens inverse des aiguilles d'une montre. Dans cet exemple, les volets 2 passent de leur état normal à leur état escamoté en pivotant également dans le sens inverse des aiguilles d'une montre.With reference to the drawing, it can be seen that actuation of the
On peut encore voir sur cet axe 63, un premier 81 et un deuxième 82 doigts de reset, respectivement solidaire de la première 710 et de la deuxième 720 planches de positionnement. Ces doigts de reset sont directement superposés et sont agencés pour être actionnés via l'organe de remise à l'état normal 500, dans le deuxième sens de rotation, comme on le décrira plus en détails plus tard.One can still see on this
Ainsi, sur un même axe sont montés des volets 2 agencés pour être juxtaposés dans la représentation de la fleur 1, en étant orientés selon deux rayons différents, par rapport au centre de la pièce d'horlogerie qui définit le centre de la fleur 1. On répartit autour de la pièce d'horlogerie une pluralité d'axes similaires, permettant de répartir radialement une série de pétales. Dans l'exemple illustré, on a douze pétales positionnés par paire sur six axes. L'agencement des volets 2 sur deux niveaux distincts permet une superposition des volets 2 d'un même axe, ainsi que leur déplacement indépendamment l'un de l'autre et sans collision. Les bras et les pales sont bien sûr dimensionnés et positionnés pour éviter toute collision avec les axes voisins.Thus, on the same axis are mounted
Le mobile de commande 40 est également prévu pour faire avancer l'organe d'affichage 300 à chaque actionnement de l'organe de commande 400. Le mobile de commande 40 comprend également, solidaire de l'étoile d'entraînement 43, une roue 42 en liaison cinématique avec un deuxième pignon 420 solidaire d'une came 45. Cette dernière présente le long de sa circonférence, une succession de portions, dont le rayon varie d'une portion à une autre, le rayon étant sensiblement constant pour chacune des portions.The
Une bascule d'affichage 310 terminée par un palpeur 31 est positionnée de sorte que le palpeur 31, prenant ici la forme d'un galet, est maintenu par un organe ressort 32 adapté, en appui sur la périphérie de la came 45. La bascule d'affichage 310 est également solidaire d'une crémaillère 33 en prise avec un train de rouages d'affichage 34. Dans l'exemple illustré, l'organe ressort 32 est un spiral monté coaxial à l'un des rouages du train de rouages d'affichage 34. Celui-ci se termine par un pignon 35 engrenant avec la denture extérieure d'un anneau 320 qui forme l'organe d'affichage 300. Sur cet anneau 320 sont inscrits, par secteur, les indications « un peu », « beaucoup », « passionnément », « à la folie », «pas du tout ». On peut noter que le début de la phrase, à savoir « Il m'aime » ou une inscription équivalente, peut être portée de manière fixe sur une partie du cadran. Les différentes positions de l'organe d'affichage 300 peuvent être maintenues par un ressort sautoir 36 coopérant avec des creusures 37 ménagées dans l'épaisseur du disque ou dans une planche qui lui est solidaire.A display flip-
En fonction du design choisi pour la pièce d'horlogerie, l'homme du métier pourra adapter l'organe d'affichage 300 selon sa convenance. Il pourra notamment utiliser une aiguille, ou un index se déplaçant par rapport à des indications fixes. Dans le cas d'un anneau 320, les indications peuvent apparaître successivement au travers d'un guichet ou dans une zone d'affichage définie. L'anneau 320 peut avantageusement être utilisé pour former le cache derrière lequel les volets 2 sont positionnés lorsqu'ils sont dans leur état escamoté. On notera que le cache pourrait également être réalisé directement par une partie du cadran.Depending on the design chosen for the timepiece, the skilled person can adapt the
Nous allons maintenant décrire l'organe de remise à l'état normal 500 de l'ensemble des volets 2 déjà évoqué ci-dessus. Il permet de faire passer les volets 2 de leur état « escamoté » à leur état « normal », typiquement, lorsque, après avoir retiré tous les pétales de la fleur 1 et ainsi avoir terminé un jeu, on souhaite refaire une partie ou, le cas échéant, arrêter de jouer.We will now describe the
L'organe de remise à l'état normal 500 des volets 2 prend la forme d'un deuxième poussoir 501, également accessible depuis l'extérieur de la pièce d'horlogerie par un utilisateur. De préférence, le poussoir 501 est également monté à rotation sur le bâti de la pièce d'horlogerie. Le deuxième poussoir 501 comporte deux branches pour actionner deux endroits différents du mécanisme.The
Une première 91 de ces branches est terminée par un râteau 90 en prise avec un double pignon 93, qui forme un renvoi vertical. Ce double pignon 93 est également en prise avec un secteur denté 94 solidaire d'un troisième niveau d'entraînement 630, superposé aux, mais indépendant des premier 610 et deuxième 620 niveaux d'entraînement. Le troisième niveau d'entraînement 630 comprend une troisième série d'ergots 633 agencée pour coopérer de manière unidirectionnelle, simultanément avec le premier 81 et deuxième 82 doigts de reset, de tous les axes. En référence au dessin, on constate qu'un actionnement du deuxième poussoir 501 permet d'entraîner le troisième niveau d'entraînement 630 dans le sens des aiguilles d'une montre. Cela aura pour effet de ramener à leur état normal des volets 2 qui sont dans leur état escamoté. Les doigts de reset des volets 2 qui seraient encore dans leur état normal, ne sont pas situés dans la course des ergots de la troisième série 633.A first 91 of these branches is terminated by a
On peut relever que, en choisissant pour le double pignon 93, deux pignons de diamètre différent, on obtient une démultiplication qui permet d'avoir une course suffisante pour le troisième niveau d'entraînement 630, malgré une course du deuxième poussoir 501 limitée, en raison du peu d'espace disponible. On notera encore que le deuxième poussoir 501 est soumis à l'action d'un ressort qui tend à le maintenir dans sa position de repos. Ce ressort permet, après une remise à l'état normal des volets 2, de ramener le troisième niveau d'entraînement 630 à sa position initiale, de manière rétrograde.It can be noted that, by choosing for the
La deuxième des branches 92 du deuxième 501 poussoir se termine par un premier levier 95 agencé pour coopérer avec un deuxième levier 96 que comporte la bascule d'affichage 310. Comme représenté sur la
Lorsque la bascule d'affichage 310 est soumise à l'action du deuxième poussoir 501, on peut prévoir, que l'organe d'affichage 300 présente alors une position supplémentaire, dite position de repos, dans laquelle aucune des indications liées au jeu n'est présentée. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, on pourra alors prévoir un système de verrouillage 100 de l'organe d'affichage 300, susceptible d'être enclenché par l'organe de remise à l'état normal 500.When the
Typiquement, ce système de verrouillage 100 prend la forme d'une bascule de verrouillage 110 qui comprend, d'une part, un verrou 10 agencé pour coopérer avec un crampon 11 solidaire de la bascule d'affichage 310. La bascule de verrouillage 110 est soumise à l'action d'un ressort 12 qui tend à la faire basculer vers sa position de verrouillage, c'est-à-dire, à la faire tourner dans le sens des aiguilles d'une montre, en référence aux
Pour déverrouiller la bascule d'affichage 310, la bascule de verrouillage 110 comprend, d'autre part, une portion de déverrouillage 120. Celle-ci est agencée pour être actionnée par un doigt de libération 403 solidaire de l'organe de commande 400. Ainsi, lors du premier actionnement de l'organe de commande 400 au cours d'un jeu, le doigt de libération 403 va entraîner la bascule de verrouillage 110 dans le sens inverse des aiguilles d'une montre, libérant ainsi la bascule d'affichage 310 qui va venir se positionner, par son palpeur 31, sur la périphérie de la came 45.To unlock the
De manière préférée, on peut prévoir que, à chaque actionnement de l'organe de commande 400, on actionne un système de sonnerie 900 ou la frappe d'un timbre 910 par un marteau 920. Un tel système 900 est représenté à la
En fonctionnement, la pièce d'horlogerie est en position de repos lorsqu'elle n'est pas en situation de jeu. La bascule d'affichage 310 est en position verrouillée et l'organe d'affichage 300 présente une indication correspondante, dite de repos, qui peut être un blanc ou un dessin. Les volets 2 sont tous dans leur position normale, et une fleur 1 avec tous ses pétales est représentée.In operation, the timepiece is in the rest position when it is not in play. The
Au premier actionnement de l'organe de commande 400 par l'utilisateur, en même temps que l'on actionne les cames d'entraînement 51 et 52, on déverrouille la bascule d'affichage 310. Selon la position pseudo-aléatoire des cames d'entraînement 51 et 52 et des premier 610 et deuxième 620 niveaux d'entraînement, la première série d'ergots 611 et la deuxième série d'ergots 622 vont actionner soit un volet du premier niveau 21, soit un volet du deuxième niveau 22, soit un volet de chaque niveau et ce, de manière irrégulière. Ce ou ces volet(s) est/sont alors amené(s) dans leur état escamoté. Simultanément, l'organe d'affichage 300 indique l'une des indications disponibles. La position affichée initialement varie en fonction de la position de la came 45 lors de la fin du jeu précédent. Cela permet d'obtenir une plus grande variabilité des combinaisons et de résultats du jeu. Le nombre de combinaisons et l'intérêt du jeu sont également renforcés par le fait que les cames d'entraînement 51 et 52 ont des actions différenciées et irrégulières sur les volets 2.At the first actuation of the
On notera que l'on pourrait agencer un coeur solidairement à la came 45, si on voulait toujours commencer le jeu en affichant l'indication « un peu », un marteau 46 coopérant avec la came 45 lors d'une remise à l'état normal des volets 2.It should be noted that a heart could be arranged integrally with the
Une sonnerie retentit également lors de l'actionnement de l'organe de commande 400.A ring also sounds when the
L'utilisateur répète les opérations décrites ci-dessus, jusqu'à ce que la fleur 1 ne comporte plus de pétale et que tous les volets 2 soient dans leur état escamoté. L'utilisateur peut alors lire l'indication affichée par l'organe d'affichage 300. Enfin, en actionnant le deuxième poussoir 501, l'utilisateur ramène tous les volets 2 à leur position normale et l'organe d'affichage 300 à sa position de repos. La bascule d'affichage 310 est verrouillée, le jeu est prêt pour une nouvelle partie qui peut débuter immédiatement ou plus tard.The user repeats the operations described above, until the flower 1 no longer has a petal and all the
Ainsi est proposée une pièce d'horlogerie intégrant une nouvelle complication qui en est réellement une, particulièrement destinée à une montre féminine. L'homme du métier pourra envisager d'autres variantes de réalisation, sans sortir du cadre de l'invention tel que défini dans les revendications. Notamment, même si le mode de réalisation proposé est avantageux au niveau des combinaisons possibles de tirage, on pourrait également envisager un système de lancement aléatoire du disque d'affichage 320, celui-ci s'arrêtant dans une position indéterminable au début de chaque nouveau jeu. Un tel système peut être obtenu par la mise en tension manuelle d'un ressort qui peut se libérer soudainement en entraînant un disque d'affichage 320, libre en rotation et seulement soumis à un cliquet de positionnement qui le freine et assure qu'il s'arrête dans une position de lecture. On pourrait alors simplifier le système d'escamotage des volets 2, par exemple en les escamotant un par un. Avantageusement, on devrait alors augmenter le nombre de positions du disque d'affichage 320, par exemple en dupliquant chaque inscription ou seulement certaines d'entre elles. On notera encore que l'homme du métier saura adapter le dessin des cames d'entraînement, de manière à optimiser selon ses choix ou ses contraintes, la séquence d'escamotage des volets 2.Thus is proposed a timepiece incorporating a new complication that is actually one, particularly for a women's watch. Those skilled in the art may consider other embodiments, without departing from the scope of the invention as defined in the claims. In particular, even if the proposed embodiment is advantageous in terms of the possible combinations of draws, it would also be possible to envisage a system for random launching of the
On pourrait également envisager une variante dans laquelle, après un lancement aléatoire du disque d'affichage 320, les volets 2 soient retirés de manière automatique, en reliant le mobile de commande 40 au mouvement de la pièce d'horlogerie. On peut alors ajuster la durée nécessaire pour l'effeuillage de toute la marguerite, ou avertir le porteur de la montre par une sonnerie spéciale, lorsque le jeu est terminé. On préférera alors avoir une source d'énergie dédiée à l'actuation des volets 2, afin de perturber aussi peu que possible, la marche de la montre.One could also consider a variant in which, after a random launch of the
