Abstract

PURPOSE:To make adjustable the starting time of a non-operation period of time information in a striking clock by a method wherein a plurality of intervals of rotation engagement of a switching plate in relation to a rotating plate are set to be N times larger than the angle of intermittent rotation of the rotating plate, and the switching plate is rotated to a position as required in relation to the rotating plate by means of a switching stem. CONSTITUTION:A switching plate 12 is engaged in a groove 11b of the three engagement grooves of the index groove 11 of a rotating plate 10, which are provided corresponding to every 15 deg. of the angle of intermittent rotation of the rotating plate 10. At this time, continuity patterns 7 and 8 are made continuous by a contact plate 5, and thus a time-striking device is operated. Supposing that the present time is 10 p.m., the continuity between the patterns 7 and 8 is broken at 11 p.m., and the time-informing device is stopped. Next, when the switching stem 13 is engaged in an engagement groove 11a, the stopping time of the time-striking device is set at 12 p.m., i.e. 2hr after the present time. When the switching stem 13 is engaged in a engagement groove 11c, the stopping time of the time striking turns to be 10 p.m.
