- the tubes 19 are threaded to allow the screwing of a bridge on the component 1, bridge which comprises the bearing for the second pivot of the shaft of the clutch wheel.
- the central portion 11 of the lower piece 9 is pierced with holes 20 which are aligned with corresponding holes 21 of the part 13 of the upper part 10.
- holes 20, 21 allow pins fixed to the support 4 to pass through the lower and upper parts 9, 10 to position the component 1 on the support 4.
- Another hole 22 of the lower part 9 aligned with a hole 23 of the upper part 10 allows a screw to pass through the lower and upper parts 9, 10. This screw is screwed into the support 4 and plates the component 1 against said support 4.
- the lower and upper parts 9, 10 are fixed to each other axially by being fastened together to the support 4.
- the parts 9, 10 could be directly attached to each other , for example by gluing or welding, before being mounted on the support 4.
- the lower and upper parts 9, 10 have their respective central parts 11, 13 which are integral to form together the central fixing portion 2 of the component 1 and their peripheral parts 12, 14 which are integral to form together the peripheral part mobile 3 of component 1.
- the empty space 24 between the central fixing portion 2 and the surrounding mobile peripheral part 3 has a width l which allows rotation of the mobile peripheral portion 3 with respect to the central fixing portion 2 within a certain range. . From a certain amplitude of rotation, in one direction or in the other, the mobile peripheral portion 3 abuts against the central fixing portion 2 to limit the deformation of the elastic strips 7, 8.
- the width l is chosen sufficiently small so that the elastic limit of the blades 7, 8 can not be exceeded. Thus, the blades 7, 8 can not deform plastically or break.

- the elastic members 32, 33 are superimposed and define an axis of rotation Z for the balance.
- Each resilient member 32, 33 comprises two separate crossed blades 32a, 32b, 33a, 33b which connect the fixing portion 30 and the mobile peripheral portion 31. Spacers 34, 35 can separate the monolithic pieces 26, 27 from the monolithic pieces 28, 29.
- this clock component 25 has a low rigidity in the direction of rotation Rz about the Z axis, but a very high rigidity in the rotation directions Rx, Ry around X axes, Y perpendicular to the Z axis, as well as a very high translational stiffness along the X, Y and Z axes.
- the figure 11 shows an oscillator 25 'which differs from the oscillator 25 in that the monolithic pieces 28, 29 have been inverted to change the relative vertical position of the blades 33a, 33b.
- the figure 12 shows an oscillator 25 "which differs from the oscillator 25 in that the monolithic parts 28, 29 have been rotated 180 ° with respect to the monolithic parts 26, 27, the oscillator 25" thus comprising two inner fixing parts 30a, 30b diametrically opposed and defined respectively by the monolithic parts 26, 27 and by the monolithic parts 28, 29.

- the Figures 15 to 17 show elastic blades of two respective monolithic pieces intersecting without contact while they are generally in the same plane.
- the elastic blades 44, 45 are in the same plane but have notches 46, 47 to allow their crossing.
- each elastic blade 48, 49 leaves its plane before crossing the blades 48, 49 and then returns to its plane after crossing.
- each elastic blade 50, 51 change of plane before the crossing of the blades.
- many other configurations are possible in which at least part of each elastic blade is in the same plane as at least part of the other blade. This type of configuration has the advantage of making the component more compact.
