  • a further gear 203 is now further arranged, which has the same size and the same number of gears as the gear 202 of the layer 221 and meshes with this.
  • the two gears 202 and 203 together form a gear set 201, which forms the mechanism 200 of this embodiment. Since the two gears 202 and 203 are equal in size and have the same number of teeth, they rotate synchronously, so that not only the gear 202 rotates through 180 ° within 29.5 days - a lunar cycle - but also the gear 203.

  • the mechanism 300 shown there serves on the one hand to display the time of dawn and sunset on the function dial.
  • the display or the representation of day and night is possible here with a disk 319 by means of a sun or moon representation arranged thereon, this disk 319 corresponding to the 24-hour display from the prior art FIG. 1 coupled and rotated 360 ° within 24 hours.
  • the mechanism 300 in this case has a gear set 301 with gears 302 to 310 and racks 313 to 316.
  • the gear 310 is mechanically coupled to a complication of a movement of a clock, this complication is designed to display the day of the month. Ie. the gear 310 rotates once in a month by 360 °.
  • the gear 310 meshes with another gear 302.
  • On the gear 302, a further gear 303 is mounted concentrically, which meshes with a gear 304.
  • the number of teeth of the individual gears 310, 302, 303 and 304 is selected such that the gear 310 rotates once within 360 days 360 °, while the gear 304 has once rotated 360 ° when the gear 310 has performed twelve turns.

  • the eccentric mounting of the gear 305 on the gear 304 is dependent on the geographical location in which the clock is to be used.
  • the clock is designed for a representation of the sunrise and sunset in Frankfurt am Main at a latitude of 50.1 degrees and a longitude of 8.6 degrees.
  • the time of the sunrise or sunset can be read by the impact of the segments 311 and 312 on a perimeter, in the representation of the FIG. 25 There, however, no times are entered. These times can, however, according to a representation of an analog clock around the left circle in the FIG. 25 are arranged, on which the sunrise and - sunset display is arranged, but here should be provided a 24-hour display.
