That's the Barret side key which is a single key for both Bb and C which replaced the two separate side keys for Bb (lower) and C (upper).

It's in essence Triebert's Systeme 4 with a Barret side key and as you rightly said, it's a transitional model.


Adding a thumbplate to it will turn it into Triebert's Systeme 5 which is what is commonly known as thumbplate system - the side key springing will have to be reversed so the Bb and C keys remain open, then the thumbplate will have a stronger needle spring to push the clutch up to hold the pads closed while the thumbplate is held down, but will still allow the side key to be used for trilling.
