Abstract

The invention discloses a structure of an armillary sphere system for an ancient water-powered astronomical clock tower. The structure comprises a six-cardinal-point component which is supported by four dragon pillars on a water instep, wherein an upward moon structure is arranged on the six-cardinal-point component; a three-luminary set is arranged in the six-cardinal-point component; a sighting-tube ring is arranged in the three-luminary set; the three-luminary set and the sighting-tube ring can respectively rotate around a same axis; a certain angle is formed between the axis and the horizontal plane; a turtle base is arranged on the water instep; a supporting pillar for a driving system is hidden in the turtle base; the three-luminary set can follow the motion of a star; on the basis of the adjustment for a weft angle of the sighting-tube ring and a meridian position of a sighting tube, the sighting tube can be used for tracking and observing the star; under the action of the driving system, the three-luminary set can be used for distinguishing a solar day from a sidereal day; and the upward moon structure and the water instep structure can be used for adjusting the precision of the structure of the armillary sphere system. The structure provided by the invention can be used for distinguishing the solar day from the sidereal day and conveniently adjusting the precision.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of astronomical instruments, and in particular relates to an armillary sphere system structure used for an ancient water transport instrument platform. Background technique [0002] The Water Transport Instrument and Observatory is a large-scale astronomical instrument designed during the Yuanyou period of the Northern Song Dynasty (1086-1093). It integrates timing, observation and demonstration. It is a rare large-scale scientific and technological masterpiece in ancient China. It embodies the peak period of ancient Chinese science and technology His achievements in astronomy and calendar, metallurgical casting, mechanical technology, construction engineering and many other aspects are representative major inventions and creations in ancient China. [0003] Since the 1950s, scholars and research institutions at home and abroad have paid great attention to the restoration of the Water Transport Observatory. In 1958, ...
