Abstract

L'invention concerne un composant horloger à pivot flexible consistant en un oscillateur (25) remplissant la fonction d'un balancier-spiral. Ce composant comprend une première pièce monolithique (26) définissant une première partie rigide et une deuxième partie rigide reliées par au moins une première lame élastique (32a), et une deuxième pièce monolithique (27) définissant une troisième partie rigide et une quatrième partie rigide reliées par au moins une deuxième lame élastique (32b). Les première et deuxième pièces monolithiques (26, 27) sont assemblées l'une à l'autre de telle sorte que les première et troisième parties rigides soient solidaires l'une de l'autre, les deuxième et quatrième parties rigides soient solidaires l'une de l'autre, et les première et deuxième lames élastiques (32a, 32b) se croisent sans contact et définissent un axe de rotation virtuel (Z) pour les deuxième et quatrième parties rigides par rapport aux première et troisième parties rigides.

The invention relates to a flexible pivoting watch component consisting of an oscillator (25) fulfilling the function of a balance spring. This component comprises a first monolithic part (26) defining a first rigid part and a second rigid part connected by at least one first elastic plate (32a), and a second monolithic part (27) defining a third rigid part and a fourth rigid part connected by at least one second elastic blade (32b). The first and second monolithic parts (26, 27) are assembled to each other so that the first and third rigid parts are integral with each other, the second and fourth rigid parts are secured to one another. one of the other, and the first and second resilient blades (32a, 32b) intersect without contact and define a virtual axis of rotation (Z) for the second and fourth rigid portions with respect to the first and third rigid portions.
