AI Technical Summary
Clock alarm or chime mechanisms produce unwanted noise due to the hammer rebounding off a fixed element during its return stroke, resulting in an uncontrolled and less elegant sound.
The hammer is designed to strike resonant components in both directions, with distinct striking zones for each direction, and a control mechanism regulates its movement to minimize energy loss and impact.
This design reduces unwanted noise and enhances sound quality by utilizing the hammer's energy in both directions, maintaining a controlled and elegant sound emission.
