#CMT# #/CMT# The device (100) has a display unit (1) that is arranged to cooperate with a drive unit (10) via a transmission unit (11). A coupling unit (12) is arranged to cooperate with another complementary coupling unit (22). The former coupling unit and the latter coupling unit are located in immediate proximity to each other in only certain relative positions of the display unit and another display unit (2). A cooperation between the former coupling unit and the latter coupling unit creates an additional torque or force between the display units to damp oscillation. #CMT# : #/CMT# An independent claim is also included for a timepiece. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Display device for use in a timepiece (claimed) e.g. quartz watch, mechanical watch, and a watch with a mixed mechanical-electronic technology. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The cooperation between the coupling units creates the additional torque or force between the display units to damp oscillation, thus allowing the timepiece to have a very lower power consumption, while ensuring continuous movement of the hand of the timepiece. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a schematic view of a timepiece including a display device with a combination of display units, and a control unit for controlling the display device. 1, 2 : Display units 10 : Drive unit 11 : Transmission unit 12, 22 : Coupling units 100 : Display device. |
