Also known as the Graham Escapement, the deadbeat is a variant of the anchor escapement that eliminates the recoil action, increasing energy transfer efficiency from the driving wheel to the pendulum. It's the time-regulating component of a mechanical clock, and this model will hopefully be developed into a fully functional timepiece with a practical runtime.

Unlike any other model I’ve seen, this includes a double pendulum plus a crank to wind the weights independently, showing you how a clock weight is reset without disturbing the time. Brilliant and simple

Actually, this is the basic concept for how grandfather clocks work! They're absolutely amazing and fascinating pieces of mechanical art. If you love that sort of thing, then be prepared to end up in a very expensive hobby very quickly lol
It slows down spin from (in this case) gravity driven power, which can be used to turn anything (that it has enough torque to turn) for much longer than just tying weights to it and letting them fall.
i think is a battery.. energy storage (kinetic energy)
I like this, the falling weights would provide a more linear force than an unwinding spring
You meant constant, but either way the force shouldn't matter at all (ideally of course), because the timing is purely dependent upon the length of the pendulum.

Also just known as a classic clock. My family owns an old coukou clock, it has the exact same mechanism inside, got weights hanging off of it.
usually German cuckoo clock uses another mechanism 'recoil escapement'
This is nothing like a cuckoo clock. One weight in the cuckoo clock drives the strike train, while the other weight drives the time train (assuming the cuckoo clock isn't musical). This clock uses BOTH weights to drive the time train. It also has a different escapement from what you'll find in a cuckoo clock.
there are not that many gears inside this CLOCK huh
Yeah them using technical terms for a basic design just feels like putting on airs
@@KINGK20092009 They're hugely different. A deadbeat escapement is much more efficient than a recoil escapement, meaning it'll keep better time and last a lot longer. The fact that this is 3d printed is causing the hundreds of years of brilliant design to go completely unappreciated and misunderstood.

Good demonstration of a force driving a mechanism on one side, and a pendulum regulating speed from the other end. The basic principle of all mechanical clocks, regardless of the force feeding it (be it a wound up spring or gravity). Technically, the same also goes for the electrical force and the quartz crystal in battery operated watch.
Thanks 👍 for explaining..

Incredible work ! In the description you mention that the final construction will hopefully end up having a practical runtime. What is the runtime for the mechanism as shown ?
Thanks! Right now, it’s about 20 minutes (max at 30 if I use a smaller winding spool diameter). This model is just an initial of a proof of concept to figure out some escapement design parameters. the final version will have greater reduction ratio and larger drive weight. I’m hoping to achieve at least a week of runtime, Steve Peterson managed to make one that runs for 32 days in a single winding, I guess 7 days should be feasible 😂.
@@mechanistic3d a week of run time would be incredible! Haven't heard off Steve Peterson yet, so I'll definitely look them up as well ! I'm excited to follow your progress! Keep doing what you love!

Ты просто гений
Absolutely! I completely agree. I'm enjoying this fascinating mechanism, as an adult, in 2022. When I was younger, as a child of 5 or 10 years, I would have **loved** this. I would probably have tried to figure out how to build such a mechanism myself, with the very small LEGO I had, cardboard, glue, and wood. Children, at least in America, are not normally presented with a good enough selection of things to elicit that sort of tenacious desire to learn everything about a subject. We put them in front of a very basic, disturbingly lacking education system. In our popular TV a programs and film, almost all fictional child characters merely tolerate a school experience that they would happily discard, if they were able to continue seeing their friends without being at school. We're taught to loathe an education system that doesn't go out of its way to be much more than barely tolerable. We should be investing in our future survival and success, by supplying our little ones with as many opportunities as possible. They should be allowed to experience a wide variety of educational pathways, and encouraged to pursue any constructive avenue that they really *want* to learn about. Life at school can be much more mentally and emotionally balanced and rewarding than it is, currently. Imagine a school day with a few mandatory classes, to teach the basic, foundational necessities. Instead of only lunch and recess to look forward to - or maybe even extra-curricular activities like sports, if you are fortunate enough to have anything even available to you, _and_ you have parents with the time and money needed to make it happen. Now imagine every day, or even just 2, 3, or 4 days per week, where you would be excited to complete the other classes, as part of the work required to get the reward: getting hands-on experience as part of learning more and more, about something you **love** learning about! Additionally, because you chose the subject yourself, you get to enjoy a genuine sense of agency in your future, a feeling of having some bit of control over your life's path, when almost everything else in your world is dictated by adults with complete authority over you. Instead of putting teenagers into the adult world with only half-remembered trivia answers that they weren't paying attention to learning, and without ever teaching them the myriad of important life skills that today's _parents_ only learned later in life, if at all, and only through the hard lessons taught by life experience. We could be doing so much better than we are, in America and in many, many other places, too.

I'm pretty sure that tick-tock sound could be used as a form of torture after a while!
If you connect that to an energy generator then you've basically got a gravity powered engine and this is something they're looking into as a source of small energy in developing countries. Items such as gravity battery lights are being explored because the parts can be simplified and easier to replace, then to recharge they just need to lift the weight up again.
On order to lift the weights you'll be using energy from somewhere else. Gravity would just act as a spring loaded by an external source.
@@harshabhimanyu6106 Well yeah, but I’m sure a single small house’s lights could be powered by a weight light enough for a person to lift, such as a large sack/large sacks of sand. Heavy, yes, but definitely possible. So you have pretty much unlimited light for the price of lifting some weight a couple of times a day.
@@spades9681 No, for the price of the calories it took to lift the heavy weight.
I went and did the math on this. Tl;dr: A single LED light is about ten watts. Leaving it on for 24 hours costs 864 kilojoules of energy. The formula for calculating the required mass for a certain amount of potential gravitational energy is "mass = energy / (gravity * height)". Assuming we're lifting the weight one meter (and living on Earth), 864 kilojoules of energy would require lifting approximately 88,000 kilograms of mass. So, every day you want the light to be on, you get to lift 88 tons of material up a meter. Have fun. People really underestimate how much power is contained in your average home electricity circuit compared to the power output of the human body. (These numbers are wrong; this assumes 100% efficiency. In reality, the number would be higher.)
Keeping track of time takes less energy than illuminating time. @@zorbathut
It would be interesting if you add a mechanism that uses the weight of the counterweight, after reaching the end, to turn all the system around and start over
That would be an infinite energy machine, which is impossible.
Very true nice observation
@@georgeblack589 I guess you meant perpetual motion system. But saying that doesn't answer my comment. To be a perpetual motion system no extra energy will be needed afterwards, but I just said it would be interesting to add a system related to the counterweight...
