Abstract (en)
[origin: EP1396765A1] The analogue clock mechanism includes an alarm mechanism for programming an alarm call time. It includes a system for adjusting the alarm call time in co-operation with a change in the time of the analogue display and time spindle. This ensures that on changing time zones, the alarm is correctly set with respect to the main time display. The mechanical or electromechanical clock mechanism provides an analogue display of the time using a time spindle, and includes an alarm mechanism for programming an alarm call time. It includes a system for adjusting the alarm call time in co-operation with a change in the time of the analogue display and time spindle. The link includes a gear system linking the time spindle to move the alarm mechanism. The time spindle gear includes a barrel carrying the hour hand (40) which drives a release hub (50) of the alarm mechanism. This linkage is made via a drive element (56). The hub has three apertures in which three corresponding arms are located in order to link the drive element in rotation.
