Patent ID: 8743663

Claim:
A pointer type timepiece comprising: a motor; a pointer which moves by rotation of the motor; a rotating wheel which rotates and transmits rotation of the motor; a ratchet wheel which is rotatably provided coaxially overlapped with the rotating wheel and provided with feed teeth in an outer peripheral portion; a feed wheel which has a plurality of tooth sections that mesh with the feed teeth of the ratchet wheel and rotate by a predetermined angle for every one revolution of the ratchet wheel; a display wheel which rotates by rotation of the feed wheel and changes display; and a high speed rotating wheel which rotates by rotation of the motor and rotates at a higher speed than the rotating wheel, wherein the ratchet wheel is provided with a locking section and an engaging section formed in the rotating wheel along a circumferential direction by which the locking section is movably locked into the engaging section, wherein the rotating wheel and the ratchet wheel integrally rotate when the locking section is locked into one end section of the engaging section positioned on opposite side of rotation direction of the engaging section, wherein the ratchet wheel is formed with a portion of teeth which mesh with the high speed rotating wheel only when the portion of teeth rotate the display wheel, wherein the ratchet wheel is rotated at high speed by which the high speed rotating wheel meshes with the portion of teeth, and then the locking section of the ratchet wheel moves in the rotation direction along the engaging section of the rotating wheel by the rotation of the high speed rotating wheel, and wherein the display wheel is also rotated at high speed by which the high speed rotation of the ratchet wheel is transmitted to the display wheel by the feed wheel.
