Timepiece providing analogue displays of three biorhythmic cycles - is adjustable in daily steps by pushbutton-operated levers acting on movements geared to central hour wheel

摘要

The hour wheel (11) of the main time-of-day ovement is geared (15) to three subsidiary wheels (14,14a,14b) driving miniature hands (5,6,7) around minor dials (8,9,10) which are divided horizontally into positive and negative semicircles with sinusoidal graduations. The three hands revolve once in 23, 28 and 33 days respectively, in steps controlled by ratchets (21.23 etc.). The relative positions of inner and outer star wheels (21,20) w.r.t. a supporting wheel (17) canbe adjusted by means of corrective levers (25) actuated by external pushbuttons (27). The personal triple code corresp. to the user's date of birth is ascertainable from established biorhythm tables and curves. ADVANTAGE - Ascendant, descendant and critical phases of three cycles are shown by analogue displays which can be adjusted easily by user without specialist help.
