  • the deflector 40 thus avoids, in the case where the front 23 of the additional cam 20 comes back during the passage one month, that catching by the extra finger 10 is made the passage of the next day: for example we avoid that the date passes unexpectedly from the first to the 3rd of the month.
  • the catch-up finger 10 encounters the cam face 23 and pushes it; in doing so, it rotates the planet wheel 82 of the differential mechanism 500, and so rotates the ratchet of the thirty-one wheel 31; during this pushing, a distal end 44 of the deviator 40, the furthest away from the axis of the days D1, moves the catching finger 10 away, which can no longer catch the front 23 of the additional cam 20: only the finger main 1 can push the ratchet of the thirty-one wheel 31, which has rotated in the meantime, to its new position which corresponds to the catch-up performed.
  • the catching finger 10 is disengaged by the action of the deflector 40, which prevents any action on the additional cam 20.
  • the additional finger 10 can drive the profile 22 of the additional cam 20, and thus rotate the additional pinion 21, thus driving the planet wheel 82.
  • the thirty-one wheel 31 is secured to a surprise 29, constituting this safety mechanism, and which, without limitation, comprises a circular circumference interrupted by two plates 290 and 291.
  • the main finger 1 and the additional finger 10 which were waiting in an advanced position, slide back, on the teeth of the thirty-one wheel 31 for the main finger 1, and, as the case may be, on the periphery of the additional cam 20 and / or on the deflector 40 for the additional finger 20.
  • the angular position of the additional cam 20 with respect to the thirty-one cam 4 is variable, since it depends on both the current day and the information read by the reader probe 53 relating to the duration of the current month on the cam of the months 9.
  • the angular deviation of these fronts 43 and 23 is limited to 4 days, since the date 28.
  • the differential mechanism 500 has the front 23 of the additional cam 20 with an angular difference corresponding to a catch of a jump of two teeth on the wheel ratchet of thirty-one 31 when the probe reader 53 on the cam of the months 9 is on a position 30 days.
  • This angular difference corresponds to a catch of a jump of three teeth when the reader probe 53 on the cam of the months 9 is at a position 29 days, and a catch of a jump of four teeth when the reader probe 53 on the 9 months cam is on a 28 day position.
  • the leap on the 31st is naturally a single tooth.
  • the invention also relates to a timepiece mechanism 800 comprising a clockwork movement 200 arranged to control the daily trigger, at the time of the change of date, of a mechanism for actuating a perpetual flip-flop 2 that comprises such a mechanism perpetual calendar 100, and comprising a display mechanism 400 comprising at least date display means 412 controlled by the calendar mechanism 700.
  • the invention also relates to a timepiece 1000, in particular a watch, comprising such a clock mechanism 800.
  • the invention makes it possible to transform a conventional date mechanism into a perpetual calendar mechanism, without any background modifications, and this, with a cam of forty-eight as well as a cam of twelve.
  • the mechanism according to the invention makes it possible to prevent any such error, and the user is assured of displaying the correct date and the month, because it is impossible to shift the date, between the cam of the months and the wheel of thirty. -and one. For example, it is impossible for the user to display a February 30 or June 31 in manual correction. On certain perpetual calendars, the correction passes only through the street of thirty-one, which means that, in coupling with a cam of 48, it is necessary to manually perform 47 turns of wheel of thirty-one before returning at the right month on the cam 48, this advantage is far from minor.

  1. Ewiger Kalendermechanismus (100) für ein Zeitmessgerät (1000), das ein Uhrwerk (200) umfasst, das dafür ausgelegt ist, die tägliche Auslösung eines Mechanismus zum Betätigen einer ewigen Wippe (2), die der Ewige Kalendermechanismus (100) aufweist, zum Zeitpunkt des Datumswechsels zu steuern, wobei der Ewige Kalendermechanismus (100) einen Kalendermechanismus (700), einen Tagesabwärtszähler (300), der einen Monatsende-Einholmechanismus (600) aufweist, und einen Differential-Mechanismus (500) umfasst, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Kalendermechanismus (700) dafür ausgelegt ist, die Dauer im aktuellen Monat anzuzeigen, und bei jedem Wechsel des aktuellen Monats durch den Tagesabwärtszählmechanismus (300) aktualisiert wird, und wobei der Differential-Mechanismus (500) dafür ausgelegt ist, jeden Tag zum Zeitpunkt des Datumswechsels die Bewegung eines zusätzlichen Einholnockens (20), den der Monatsende-Einholmechanismus (600) aufweist, anhand einer Information bezüglich des aktuellen Tages des Monats, der an dem Tagesabwärtszählmechanismus (300) abgelesen wird, und einer Information über die Dauer des aktuellen Monats, die an dem Kalendermechanismus (700) abgelesen wird, zu steuern.
  2. Ewiger Kalendermechanismus (100) nach Anspruch 1, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Differential-Mechanismus (500) einen Leseisolator (300) umfasst, der einen Lesetaster (53) zum Messen der Dauer des aktuellen Monats an einem Monatsnocken (9), den der Kalendermechanismus (700) aufweist, umfasst, und dass der Leseisolator (3) einen ersten Eingang des Differential-Mechanismus (500) bildet, wovon ein zweiter Eingang durch ein Rad (31) mit einunddreißig Zähnen gebildet ist, das der Tagesabwärtszählmechanismus (300) aufweist und das durch einen Hauptfinger (1) positioniert ist, den der Tagesabwärtszählmechanismus (300) aufweist und der jeden Tag zum Zeitpunkt des Datumswechsels durch die ewige Wippe (2) betätigt wird, um am Ausgang des Differential-Mechanismus (500) die Winkelposition des zusätzlichen Nockens (20) zu steuern.
