Abstract:
1. A timepiece with date, mechanism, comprising a calendar mobile ( 1 ) with a tooting engaging with an angular positioning jumper ( 2 ), a mobile ( 3 ) with a hub for driving this calendar mobile ( 1 ), a positive connection ( 4 , 5 ) between this driving mobile ( 3 ) and a minute train for rotating said driving mobile ( 3 ) at the rate of one turn every twenty-four hours, an instantaneous-jump cam ( 7 ), an elastic energy accumulator ( 10 , 11 ) engaging with this cam ( 7 ) in order to displace it instantaneously once per turn of said driving mobile ( 3 ), a finger ( 9 b ) kinematically connected to this cam ( 7 ) in order to drive the calendar mobile ( 1 ), a kinematic connection ( 3 b , 7 a ) between the driving mobile ( 3 ) and the cam ( 7 ), with a degree of freedom chosen to allow said elastic energy accumulator ( 10 , 11 ) to release its energy by imparting upon it a relative movement, to enable the driving finger ( 9 b ) to displace the calendar mobile ( 1 ) instantaneously by one step, wherein the driving finger ( 9 b ) is borne by a release member ( 9 ) which is mounted pivotably about two axes, the first of which is that of the hub ( 3 a ) of said driving mobile ( 3 ) and the second of which is that of a pin ( 7 a ) fixedly connected to this driving mobile ( 3 ), this release member ( 9 ) having an opening ( 9 a ) configured to allow an angular displacement about the second of these two axes, whereby the driving finger ( 9 b ) can be released from the toothing ( 1 a ) of the calendar mobile while the calendar is corrected, and a preloaded return spring ( 8 ) which tends constantly to rotate said driving finger ( 9 b ) about said second pivot axis in order to bring an edge of said opening ( 9 a ) to butt against said hub ( 3 a ), a position in which said driving finger is engaged with the toothing of said calendar ring ( 1 ).
