PNEUMATIC CLOCK-REGULATO R.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 269,900, dated January 2, 1883.
Application filed April 13, 1882. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern: v with an arbor, H, revolving looselyon the arie it known that I, GUSTAVUS G. \VAGNER, bor B of the minute-hand and carrying the a citizen of the United States, residing at New hour-hand I in the usual manner, to produce York, in the county and State of New York, the proper motion of the hour-hand relatively have invented new and useful Improvements to the minute-hand. The balance-weight F is i in Clock-Regulators, of which the following is fixed to the arbor B of the minute-hand, near a specification. I its rear end, such weight being made in the This invention relates to regulating clocks shape of an arm or pendulum. by gas-pressure, as in the manner described in In this example the pusher Gr 18 formed by 6o [0 Letters Patent of the United States granted to one side of a bellows, G, to which the gas or me November 9, 1880, or by the pressure of other fluid is admitted through a pipe, J, and any suitable fluid; and it consists in the comthe pusher is connected with the arbor B of bination of a revolving tubular arbor gearing the minute-hand by means of a main lever, K, with the clock-movement, a compound revolvwhich is fixed to a rock-shaft, L, at one end i ing and sliding arbor carrying the minuteand subjected to the action of a spring, N, hand andextendingthroughthe tubular arbor, having a tendency to keep the same in contact friction-disks fixed to the arbors, respectively, with the pusher at its opposite end, and of an a balance-weight fixed to the arbor of the minauxiliary lever, 0, which is fixed to said rocknte-hand, a pusher adapted to be actuated by shaft at one end and engages with the arborB 2o fluid-pressure, and a means for connecting the atits opposite end. With the spring N is com pusher with the arbor of the minute-hand, so bined an adjusting-screw, P, for regulatingits that whenever the pusher is actuated a reciptension. The construction of the pusher Gr, rocating motion is imparted to the arbor of the however, is capable of modification, and other minute-hand, and thet'riction-disksare brought means can be used for connecting the same 2 out of contact with each other a sufficient with the arbor of the minute-hand, if seen fit. length of time to allow said arbor to follow the In the normal positions ofthe parts the disks action of its balance-weight, whereby the min- D E are in frictional contact with each other. ute-hand is set to a perpendicular position, When the gas or other fluid is admitted to the thus starting from a determined point on the bellows G under a high pressure the latter is 8o 0 clock-dial.

What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. In a clock-regulator, the combination of a revolving tubular a: bor gearing with the clockinovemeut, a compound revolving and sliding arbor carrying the minutehand and extending through the tubular arbor, friction-disks fixed to the arbors,respectively, a balance- Weight fixed to the arbor of the minute-hand, a pusher adapted to be actuated by fluid-pressure, and a means for connecting the pusher with the arbor of the minute-hand, the whole adapted to operate substantially as described.
2. In a clock-regulator, the combination of a revolving tubular arbor gearing with the clockmovement, a compound revolving and sliding arbor carrying the minute-hand and extendii'ig' through the tubular arbor, friction-disks fixed to the arbors, respectively, a balance-weight fixed to the arbor ot' the minute-ham], apusher adapted to be actuated by fluid-pressure, a means for connecting the pusher with the arbor of the minuteha-nd, and a catch adapted to engage the balance-Weight for the purpose set forth, the whole adapted to operate substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal in the presence of twosubscrib ing witnesses.
