Key Features
- Model comes with a Pocket Model’s Study Guide with a creation story and mechanism design as well as engaging and interesting tasks
- Immerse yourself in Augmented Reality (AR), find out how the pendulum is used in a clock mechanism, and interact with it via the dedicated UGears application
- The model has an anchor escapement controlling the frequency of oscillations, a weight, a scape-wheel, gearing, rubber band, ratchet, and pawl reducing an operational error. The model has several means to control the frequency of oscillations: the weight of the pendulum bob, the vertical position of the weight on the pendulum, and the tension of the rubber band
- Self-assembly from the parts, pulled out from wooden boards, according to easy-to-follow manual instruction. No glue or cutting needed
- Montessori toys promote independent exploration and skill-building, which is exactly what this toy does!
- Please note: Returns are not accepted unless in original, shrink-wrapped condition.
- Great for ages 8 and up

Description
Description
Learn how the PENDULUM works:
Pendulum is a stylized educational model, an interactive study guide to the mechanism, only for learning its essentials and principles of working. The pendulum is one of the basic and most reliable time measuring mechanisms. Its working principle is based on the model's constant amplitude oscillation under the force of gravity (weight) and potential energy (tension force) of the rubber band. The rubber band powers the mechanism of the model and compensates for the pendulum's oscillations' kinetic energy loss. The device is animated by means of a gear unit with a windup wheel.
