Movement 309
AnimatedOriginal 

309. Mudge’s gravity escapement. The pallets, A, B, instead of being on one arbor, are on two, as shown at C. The pendulum plays between the fork-pins, P, Q, and so raises one of the weighted pallets out of the wheel at each vibration. When the pendulum returns the pallet falls with it, and the weight of the pallet gives the impulse.
