Abstract
A mechanical regulator for horology including an escapement collaborating with an oscillator provided with an inertial element oscillating in an oscillation plane by virtue of a return element. The escapement includes a pin rigidly connected to the inertial element, an anchor including a fork collaborating with the pin, and two pallet stones collaborating with teeth of an escape wheel. The regulator is configured such that, during a first frictional locking phase that occurs before an unlocking phase, and during a second frictional locking phase that occurs after an impulse phase, the pin is in contact with the fork so as to push same, and a tooth of the escape wheel is in rubbing contact with one of the pallet stones.
