As people's standard of living improves
And the return of art and culture
A classic and fashionable mechanical clock
Including mechanical landing clocks, mechanical hanger clocks, mechanical seat clocks, etc
It has attracted ordinary consumer families。
But the mechanical clock is in use
It's not as simple as stone
There's a lot of misuse
Or ignores a few small problems
It caused major or minor malfunctions。
Knowledge on the use and maintenance of mechanical clocks
Let's find out。
I. Placement requirements
1. Stay away from the stronger magnetic field, heat and tide。
Because the magnetic field causes the magnetization of the capture apparatus, it affects the accuracy of the walk. Temperature surges and drops, the extension or shortening of hairlines as temperature changes, the accuracy of walking, the ease of breakage of hairlines themselves, and the distortion of bell shells by cold-hot sudden transformation。
2. Dustproof, earthquakeproof。
The dust flew into the aircraft, especially when it was adsorbed by lubricating oils in various moving parts, which increased resistance and made the parts susceptible to wear and tear and affected the accuracy of the walk. Avoid frequent moves, which can generate vibrations that affect the core work, especially the clock, and be more careful where it hangs, and be in the right place。
Regular maintenance
Regular maintenance is a specific requirement for mechanical clocks to operate as sophisticated machines for a long period of time. Mechanical clocks require maintenance every 5-6 years. The main ones are cleaning and lubricant for the core parts. They often wipe their shell, their glass surfaces, and so on. The wood shells of the clocks and the clocks can be waxed, luminous and clean。
The parts of a mechanical clock, such as bell-sharping and electroplating, are to be wiped lightly on the surface of the part with clean soft cloth so as to remove the dust attached to the surface and remove the oxide attached to the parts. If there is some oxidation on the parts, such as a layer of white amplifier, and if there is a colour deeper than the original, then a little glass can be poured up to the clean sheet, and the parts can be emptied down over and over again. A bit of car wax is sprayed on the cloth, which gives the fittings a fresh light。
Iii. How to judge the breakdown
1. What is the reason for the mechanical clock to stop running
Possible reason 1: the hammer has fallen to the end or it's loose。
Treatment: re-upgrade the hammer or upper hair, then re-schedule the time and start. Note: on startup, please confirm that the clock will be given the largest swing。
Possible reason 2: the clock is not stable, unbalanced or vertical。
Treatment: repositioning the clock to a firm, balanced or vertical position. Then make sure that the bell is set with the hammer/ring
Fuck。
Possible cause 3: clockwork conflicts
Disposition: recalibration of the position of the pin so that it can walk normally。
Possible reason 4: the core lock-up has not been moved to optimal operational status。
Disposition: recalibration of the core trap to optimal operational condition and confirmation of whether the pole of the core is properly connected to the core。
2. What happens if the clock is wrong
Please let your clock go for a few hours before you adjust it. If the clock stopper is open, counting the number of times the clock is ticked, and if three clicks, that's three, then just dial the clock until three. Note: please do not move the clock needles while playing。
In the case of originally imported german cores, the cores have the function of auto-adjusted musical or whole point, which automatically adjusts the bell's rhythm or whole point when the clock is activated a few hours after it has been activated。
What if the clock doesn't play
1 please check the stop and pull poles of the clock in the middle of the stop/silent position, or the stop and stop poles in the middle of the stop and stop position, i. E. The night。
2 please confirm that the core is not in the position of night off。
Please check that all packaging cores have been removed。
Please check if all the bells are right on each bell。
If the clock is chain-driven, make sure your hammer is in the right place. There's a left, medium, right sign below each hammer, in the direction of the clock from left to right。
6 if the clock is driven by a rope hammer, the clock may be entangled when it shakes a rope without a hammer. See if there's any entanglements in each rope ring, if entanglements call your distributor or after-sales service。
Four, if the mechanical core plays
Or too fast or too slow. How
The pace at which the cores are set is fixed before the supplier leaves the plant, and can no longer be adjusted after the clock is loaded. Make sure your hammer is in the right place. There's a left, medium, right sign below each hammer, in the direction of the clock from left to right。
If the clock is at the end of the night (night off) but it's at the end of the day, at night
How do we deal with this
Please clockwise for 12 hours. Note: do not move clock needles while playing, turn off the music switch。
Can you increase or reduce the volume of taping
No, the volume can't be adjusted。
7. What if the clock goes too fast or too slow
Usually there's a modulated nut below chung-sung dynasty. Slows to the left, turns to the right. An error of approximately 1 minute/day while turning a loop to adjust the movement。
8 if the clock is gone for years
But now it's stopped or it's gone slow
What do we do
This is probably due to the need to maintain lubricant at the core of the clock. Please contact your distributor and provide you with access maintenance (cleaning and lubricating)。
9. How do you get on a rope
Landing clocks — rope cores: the hammers are rocked up by shaking. When you shake a hammer, do not bear it with your hands. Please put the shaker in the bell's eye. In any case, the hammer will go up with the twister。
Landing clocks - chain cores: the hammer goes up by pulling the chain. When you pull the chain, do not use the hand-held hammer. The chain should stop at five centimeters of the bell core. In any case, the hammer will be lifted with the zipper。
Accelerator clocks or tables/bells: the shaker is inserted into the eye of the bell's face and, depending on the type of bell, one, two, or three bells can be found on the bell. For hairline cores, please use a swing handle tight. For the hammer drive core, shake the hammer up with a swing. When shaking hammers/ zippers, do not use hand-held hammers. Whatever the core, the hairline must be tight。
What if the hammer drops differently
When the pole is in the status of auto night stopr (auto night off) or silent, the medium hammer will decline faster than the two next to it。
Where's the hammer
The key, if used, should be placed within the time shell and be careful not to place it elsewhere in case of loss。
