Horological movement that includes an energy accumulator, wheel units fitted with time indicator members, kinematic connection means creating multiplication or demultiplication ratios between the different wheel units, and a regulator member. The energy accumulator, the wheel units and the regulator member are arranged coaxially. Each wheel unit possesses a shape similar to a cup, each cup having a different diameter to allow it to fit partially one inside the other. The horological movement also has a differential arranged coaxially with the energy accumulator to provide the kinematic connection between the energy accumulator and one of the cups through a main arbour and a main pipe which is fitted coaxially around the main arbour, the pipe being designed to support both the other cup or cups and the said kinematic connection means. One of the cups preferably corresponds to the second wheel unit in which the regulator member is located. |

PURPOSE:To make it possible to miniaturize the size of a whole clock by inserting wheel into and through holes that have a diameter larger than that of the wheel. CONSTITUTION:A wheel shaft 21 is fixed on a wheel train bearing 20, and the head section at the periphery of this wheel shaft is provided with a sword guard sectin 21a in its die facing a main plate. The wheel shaft 21 is inserted with its sword guard section 21a contacting with the wheel train bearing. The wheel shaft 21 is thereby positioned at right angle to the wheel train bearing. A wheel 23 is mounted rotatably on the wheel shaft 21, and to this wheel 23 a gear section 23a is located near the upper section of the wheel 23 and extends between the wheel train bearing and the main plate 22 and a pinion sectin 23c that is provided to the shaft section 23b of the wheel 23 are assembled. Further, the wheel 23 is provided with an engaging stop section 23d that extends between the gear sectin 23a and the main palte 22. The wheel 23 is thereby supported axially by the main plate 22. |

A miniaturized electronic watch in which a tuning fork resonator is sustained in vibration by a transistorized drive circuit energized by a single power cell, the vibratory action being converted into rotary motion to operate a dial train which turns the hands of the watch. The watch movement includes a pillar plate below which the power cell is so positioned that its periphery coincides at one point with the border of the plate, the body of the cell extending to or beyond the geometrical axis of the hands, which axis is normal to the plate. The tuning fork is disposed to one side of the cell below the plate, whereas the dial train is mounted above the cell to provide a highly compact layout.
