Natural escapement for horological movement and horological movement comprising such an escapement

Abstract

A natural escapement for horological movement carrying out a succession of operating cycles each including a first and second alternation of a balance that comprises a balance wheel on an arbor of which is adjusted a balance plate. A first escape wheel set having a first toothing is driven by a wheel set of the train of the horological movement, driving in turn a second escape wheel set having a second toothing. The first and second wheel sets form a kinematic chain arranged to cooperate with an anchor to pivot about an anchor-staff, the balance plate carrying a second impulse pallet-stone through which the balance plate receives a direct and tangential driving impulse from the first escape wheel set during the first alternation, and a first impulse pallet-stone through which this balance plate receives a direct and tangential driving impulse from the second escape wheel set during the second alternation.
