 WindPendulum
On a axis a circular disk is centric, but installs in an angle of 30Grad, in a fork. Together with a counterweight this system can oscillate. At the right end of the axis for the circular disk a crank is attached. The end of the crank is "grounded" over a linkage. That means: the fork tilts the crank over the linkage upward is to the right turned. The fork tilts the crank downward is to the left turned. In a state of rest the crank stands horizontal and the disk in a favorable initial position. I built this object for the "Art in Motion" into the Netherlands.
