Pointer instrument
First Claim
1. A pointer instrument having two pointers which are pivotal by a pointer drive and each have a pointer flag in a common plane such that the pointers cannot pass over or under each other, the pointers being pivotal independently of each other about a common axis of rotation, the pointer flags each respectively being pivotal in a range formed by a separate sector of a circle (24, 23, 25) whose center is arranged on the axis of rotation (2).

Abstract
A pointer instrument (1) has two pointer flags (3, 4) which can pivot in a common plane about a common axis (2). For this purpose, the pointer flags (3, 4) can each be deflected independently of each other in the region of a separate sector of a circle by a pointer drive (6, 6′), by of a mechanism (5, 5′). By this means, the pointer instrument (1) has a compact overall size and, at the same time, is easy to read.

11. A pointer instrument comprising:
-
a first rotatable pointer having a pointer flag;
a second rotatable pointer having a pointer flag; and
a pointer drive configured to deflect the pointers independently of each other about a common axis of rotation, wherein a portion of the flag of the first pointer is spaced equidistantly from the common axis of rotation as a portion of the flag of the second pointer, said portions of the pointer flags being arranged in a common plane essentially perpendicular to the common axis of rotation such that each pointer is limited to pivotal movement in a region formed by a sector of a circle whose center is arranged on the axis of rotation.
