    Abstract: A mechanical timer for setting a snooze time for an alarm mechanism controlling a mechanical actuator cooperating with a striking mechanism controlled by a timepiece movement, including a first control able to be actuated at a first moment by a user during the playing of an alarm chime to disengage the actuator and momentarily stop the chime, and including a timer arranged to automatically cause the alarm chime to play again at a second moment, after a predefined duration from the first moment, this timer including a second control able to be actuated by a user to set this predefined duration, and a release cam indirectly controlled by the first control and arranged to control the pivoting of a hammer lever, which, depending on its angular position, releases or locks the actuator to allow or respectively prevent the playing of an alarm chime.

    Abstract: An alarm clock or watch which includes a hammer pivotally mounted for reciprocal movement intermittently to engage a gong to produce an audible noise, and a trip member and a switch member each independently movable between a respective first position at which it intercepts the hammer to prevent or restrict movement of the hammer and a respective second position at which it does not so prevent or restrict movement of the hammer, the trip member being resiliently mounted and the hammer having an angled face at a portion which can contact the trip member whereby if the trip member is moved from its second position to its first position when the hammer is in a position such that the trip spring in its first position lies between the hammer and the rest position of the hammer and when, if the switch member is moved to its first position, the angled face of the hammer can cam the trip member out of the path of the hammer to permit the hammer to return to a rest position without damage to the trip member or the hammer.
