In horology, the recoil or anchor escapement is a type of escapement used in pendulum clocks. An escapement is the mechanism in a mechanical clock that maintains the swing of the pendulum and adva...

Once someone noticed this fact about pendulums, it was realized that you could use the phenomenon to create an accurate clock. The figure below shows how you can create a clock's escapement using a pendulum.

Consequently, the explanations I give in this article, concerning the evolution and operation of the clock escapement, are based largely on kinematic, geometric, and energy transfer principles. An escapement mechanism is a speed regulator, and it uses feedback to obtain precision operation despite imperfect components.

I have designed 3 different escapements, functionally interchangeable in the clock design (though the complete clock design shows escapement 1). They all use the same attachment for the pendulum. The part list for each escapement is found at the bottom of this page.

clock design and gear trains ... A pendulum timed clock also requires an escapement. This is a simple component, but with many subtleties. An entire book has been written on the subject and can be ordered from Mark Headrick's Horology site.

The problem for clock makers was how to control the release of that energy. On its own, a weight would simply fall to the ground immediately. A spring would immediately unwind. That's where escapements come in. ... The earliest real form of escapement was the "verge and foliot", a device believed to have been based on the...
