Water clock

Water clock.It consists in a clock whose indicator system is formed by two transparent deposits. One of the deposits signals the passage of minutes (1) and the other the hours (2). In these deposits, the water is raised at regular intervals, indicating with its level, in each deposit, the time. The water is a conductor for closing the positive contacts (10) and (12) and the negative (9) and (11) contacts that indicate the hours and minutes. The entire filling (5) and (7) and emptying (4) and (6) system is controlled by a specific electronic circuit (8) that contains an electronic clock and a programmable microprocessor.

Uno de los depósitos señaliza el paso de los minutos (1) y el otro el de las horas (2). En estos depósitos, el agua se va elevando a intervalos regulares indicando con su nivel, en cada depósito, qué hora es. El agua sirve de conductor para cerrar los contactos positivos (10) y (12) y los negativos (9) y (11) que indican las horas y los minutos. Todo el sistema de llenado (5) y (7) y vaciado (4) y (6) de los depósitos está controlado por un circuito electrónico específico (8) que contiene un reloj electrónico y un microprocesador programable.
