Abstract (en)
[origin: EP2498148A1] The mechanism (900) has a safety lever (536) whose pivoting is controlled by another lever (535) when a minute repeater is set in motion. The former lever includes a catch (536A) cooperating with a finger (537A) of a pivoting bolt (537) returned by a return spring, to prevent the minute repeater from being released again when the repeater is set in motion. The bolt is released at the end of time display striking cycle performed by the minute repeater. A spring is integrally mounted with the latter lever, and includes a slanted end, which abuts on a pivoting arm. An independent claim is also included for a timepiece.
