Pivot for timepiece mechanism

A timepiece plate comprising:

• at least one pivot for a timepiece mechanism, the pivot including a first rotational guide member for radially holding an arbor in the plate, and a second front guide member for axially limiting an end of the arbor;
• and
• at least one resilient shock absorber, including an upper shock absorber and a lower shock absorber, acting on at least the first rotational guide member and/or the second front guide member, wherein the upper shock absorber and the lower shock absorber are made in a one-piece manner by a MEMS or LIGA or lithography manufacturing technology for microcomponents, in a micromachinable material or silicon or quartz or diamond or ruby or corundum with at least one structural element other than the first rotational guide member and the second front guide member such that the upper shock absorber, the lower shock absorber, and the at least one structural element form one piece;
• the pivot including a first level and a second level which are superposed, and the first rotational guide member being suspended to the structural element via at least the upper shock absorber on the first level, and the second front guide member being suspended to the structural element via at least the lower shock absorber on the second level;
• the plate forming the structural element for at least one of the pivot comprised therein,
• wherein the first rotational guide member and the second front guide member are both made in a one-piece manner with the plate by a MEMS or LIGA or lithography manufacturing technology for microcomponents, in a micromachinable material or in silicon or quartz or diamond or ruby or corundum, and
• wherein:
• on the first level the first rotational guide member is suspended from an upper jewel-setting by a first connecting element, the first connecting element being a flexible element separate from the upper shock absorber, the upper jewel-setting being suspended from the structural element by the upper shock absorber, or
• on the second level the second front guide member is suspended from a lower jewel-setting by a second connecting element, the second connecting element being a flexible element separate from the lower shock absorber, the lower jewel-setting being suspended from the structural element by the lower shock absorber.
