[Chuang Yi Tian Shi] Swinging Mechanical Clock | STEAM Certified Wooden Craft for Parent-Child Learning

⭐️ Developed under the guidance of Professor Huang Chin-Fei's Brain-STEAM Brainwave Research Team at National Kaohsiung Normal University⭐️ ⭐️ Endorsed by over 100 elementary and middle school teachers⭐️ ⭐️ Certified by STEM. org ⭐️ https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51376178085_f04ecc5997_h.jpg Developed under the guidance of Professor Huang Chin-Fei's Brain-STEAM Brainwave Research Team at National Kaohsiung Normal University, this clock recreates the classic technique of Matteo Ricci, who introduced Western mechanical clocks to the East. The entire set operates without electricity or winding, powered by gears, weights, and an adjustable pendulum. By adjusting the pendulum's length and weight, children can observe changes in the pointer's speed, naturally understanding the core scientific principles of oscillation, gears, and time through hands-on experimentation. It is a high-quality STEAM educational tool that integrates physics and mechanical engineering. The "Swinging Mechanical Clock" has garnered strong endorsements from over 100 elementary and middle school teachers, offering an intuitive glimpse into the technology and aesthetics of ancient mechanical clocks. It guides children through the evolution of timekeeping technology—from ancient water clocks and clepsydras to Ming Dynasty mechanical clocks—encompassing a complete historical and scientific narrative. Whether at home or in the classroom, it serves as an ideal introductory science tool to spark curiosity and cultivate logical thinking, truly empowering children with scientific capability and creativity. 💡 A Little Knowledge About the Escapement System 💡 In the world of clocks and watches, the "escapement system" is often mentioned. What exactly is it? The escapement mechanism was first invented by Philo of Byzantium in ancient Greece. However, the escapement mechanism used in clockwork was developed by the Tang Dynasty monk, court astronomer, mathematician, and engineer, Yi Xing. Literally understood, "escapement" means "to release and hold." Through this mechanism of releasing and holding, power can be stored and then regulated by other components, allowing the movement to maintain stable and accurate operation. The second hand moves in an orderly fashion, and the quality of the escapement mechanism directly affects the precision of a mechanical watch! ⚙️ Product Specifications ⚙️ Product Name/Model: Swinging Mechanical Clock / 9AL01201 Finished Product Dimensions: 22cm x 9.5cm x 28cm (excluding pendulum rod) Recommended Age: 14 years and above Challenge Difficulty: ★★★★☆ Assembly Time: Approx. 2-2.5 hours Materials: Eco-friendly, non-toxic wood, acrylic Origin: Taiwan ⚠️ Precautions - Before assembly, please sand wooden parts with the provided sandpaper.
