levée inverseuse

français vers anglais Technique / Génie Mécanique / génie mécanique timepiece striking mechanism
Hi,

I cannot find "levée inverseuse" in the online horology glossaries, "levée" is "pallet" but I can't find the "inverseuse" part.

"figure 2 représente une vue en perspective du râteau des quarts, entraînant la levée des quarts emmenant la levée inverseuse."

"Levée des quarts" wasn't in the glossaries either, but I did find "quater-pallet" by guessing and googling.

I hope there is someone out there familar with the term!

Thank you

@Daryo No, this is just machine translation of the patent, This is how "levée des quarts" and "levée inverseuse" have been translated: "Lifting of quarters" and "lifting of inverting" :/

However, I think "levée des quarts" is a "quarter strike gathering pallet", but i really can't find the "levée inverseuse"
