@keyboardjeff I don't think it is very accurate. The torsion in the pendulum axis, and the large amplitude are complicating factors. To make it really accurate, I think I have to redesign the whole thing with special attention for these things.For accuracy, you have to go to the gravity escapements.
confound you, ben! it's not enough for you to simply build a gh for yourself. no, you always have to go and re-invent the entire mousetrap. what next? you gonna re-invent the mouse, too?!
am i seeing this correctly? is the crank plate detached from the pendulum? what led to pursue that aspect?
"toothed toggle joint connector #4273"
i'm not quite grasping the concept there, but would connector #44 be the piece you need?
@KEvronista Yes, #44 would have been a much better choice; I was unaware of it's existance. However, there are other problems with this type of pallet: they easily slip off sideways from the scapewheel. When you put in an axis an uneven surface results, which has to be made flat. Finally, the axis can touch the scapewheel, which is impossible now, because I used 2 axes, on bothe sides of the wheel.
The yellow plate is fixed on the pendulum axis, but the pendulum can rotate freely about this axis
@BenVanDeWaal (contnd) if not for the brown strip which is attached to the upper part of the pendulum and (fixed angularly) to the axis. This is necessary to give pendulum and escapement their mutual orientation. So, effectively, pendulum and crank plate are fixed to the same axis, and they should swing unisono. But the angular motion of the plate is not harmonic while the pendulum motion (nearly) is, so the axis is twisted. I have not a good solution for this problem.
It is fantastic! How do you come up with these designs? Is it accurate?
