  • Patent number: 4121416
    Abstract: A simulated clock apparatus utilizes a housing having an opening therein and a shelf disposed in the housing below the opening. A conventional wristwatch is adapted to be rested on the shelf so as to have the face of the clock exposed for external viewing through the opening. A pendulum is pivotably secured to the shelf and is displayed visibly through a second opening located below the opening. The pendulum may be continuously oscillated back and forth in conventional "Grandfather Clock" fashion by a bar passing through a solenoid coil, such that the bar is urged into oscillatory motion, when contacting an electrical switch at an end thereof such that the switch is operated into a closed position causing a current flow from the battery, housed within the housing, to exert a pulling force on a ferromagnetic portion of the center of the bar.
