Kinematic mechanism - a method of picturing or explaining the principles by which mechanical devices work. A special feature of the winding mechanism of the Musical Orchestra is the use of a system of moving pulley blocks that permitted the maker to increase the length of the cable. This method was often used to increase the working time of devices driven by descending weights. |
