Lego Clock Escapement W14
Lego Clock Escapement W14 (part of series W1 thru W14).
Pushing a (long) pendulum at its lower end. The weight (500g) drops 25 cm in 1 hour, i.e. still too much for a 24h clock. This is necessary, however, too keep the gear train going; the pendulum can do with much less. The clutch that connects the gear train to the scape wheel helps to avoid frame distortions, resulting from the weight, to affect the bearing of the scape wheel.
