BALL CLOCK
Clock with balls and water, the time to be read with the numbers in front of the last balls, a waterfall allowing a movement.
This enormous ball and water clock is the curiosity of the village. A waterfall allows the rotation of a paddle wheel of two meters in diameter, which via a belt and a pulley, allows an arm to lift a wooden ball from the ground every minute. By a system of chutes and counterweights at the sixtieth minute the tilting of the balls in the receptacles indicates the elapsed hours. The time is read by observing the numbers opposite each of the last logs placed in each of the receptacles.
