An arrangement of metal pulley blocks moving on the steel cable is used to increase its length. This method makes it possible to extend the time between windings of mechanical clocks driven by descending weights. In our clock the steel cable has a diameter of 5 mm and a length of 45 metres, although the weight shaft is only 4.6 metres deep. |
