Trevel clock Looping

[petro]

Good day everyone! I am new to your forum. I got a strange Looping travel watch. It is made in Switzerland. But I have not met this type of mechanism anywhere. So I'm posting a photo, maybe someone knows this type of mechanism. Best regards, Peter

Hello and welcome. 

[oldhippy]

Thank you for your introduction and welcome to this friendly forum.

We all look forward to your contributions and continued involvement. 

What is it that you need to know.?

Hi Petro and welcome to the WRT forum.

[petro]

Thank you for welcoming me to your community! I need to know about that mechanism. I sent the photo. Maybe someone knows about such watches?

Best regards, Peter

It has one winder that winds the going and the alarm side, the alarm runs if you do not stop it or shall I say you fail to wake up it will run down and stop by means of a stop work. They are good movements and the parts should be cleaned in a watch cleaning machine. It is an easy movement to take apart and put back. I would suggest you take loads of photos as you take it apart. Oils to use a good pocket watch oil on the going and alarm, windles clock oil for the barrel spring and arbor and on the alarm wheel next to the hammer and where the hammer contacts the hammer wheel. Just ask if you need anymore advice.

Good evening! Thank you for your attention and understanding! Do you sometimes have a scheme for assembling the mechanism of this type of watch? It appears to be Looping caliber 44/45. Or a link to a site where you could download such a scheme. I would be very grateful!

Regards,

Peter

Thanks, Oldhippy!!!

Best regards,

Peter

Sorry to say. You wan't find technical data for clocks not like you expect for watches. You might find how to assemble some types of clock movements in clock books.

Good morning! I need a circuit for assembling Looping clocks. I have already repaired it. The clock works fine. Just wanted to learn more about Looping.

Best regards, Peter

What do you mean by circuit?

I think Peter means diagrams or schematics.

If that is the case I have already answered that question.

I find it strange too. The only clock data sheet that I've ever come across is for the JLC Atmos clock. 

[petro]

Thank you for your attention to the topic! I was referring to the kinematics of Looping clocks. If such exist at all)))

Here is a link to a similar diagram. https://www.europeana.eu/en/item/2020801/dmglib_handler_image_13518023

As far as we know, clock data sheets do not exist in the English language. Perhaps you can try searching fir it in another language like German, French, Italian or Chinese.

[oldhippy]

I don't know of any. Kinematics or the study of motion is the same with any clock. 

[petro]

Thanks for the answer!

Best regards,

Peter

I will be following this thread.  I have a Looping travel alarm clock also, and I will post pictures of mine in a bit.  But I did not find any technical documents or diagrams about it either.

Addendum: adding pictures of my own movement.  It is in fantastic condition and amazingly accurate.  It is apparently very rugged also, because its case was a wreck.  I plan to make a beautiful case for it later.
