INDICATOR HAND FOR A TIMEPIECE, MOVEMENT FOR DRIVING SUCH AN INDICATOR HAND AND RELATED TIMEPIECE

摘要

An indicator hand (35, 300) for a timepiece comprising a base (36) rotatable by a driving member (33) of a clock movement about a first rotation axis, wherein the base has an extension in the form of a first index portion (40, 44, 45) defining a bearing for a second index portion (46. 70, 101, 102) to be rotated, relative to the bearing, about a second rotation axis essentially perpendicular to the first rotation axis, by a driving mobile (50, 78) of the clock movement. Due to these features, the indicator hand can be driven in a conventional manner in order to indicate the hour, for instance, using graduations on a dial, while the rotation of the second index portion can be used for displaying additional information that may be independent from the time. The overall dimensions of this structure are reduced and make the display area of the timepiece visually clearer, while allowing the simultaneous display of several clock complications.
