COMPONENTS AND WORKING OF BELL

COMPONENTS:

• Two steel gears(1&3)
• Two brass pinions(2&4)
• One spring
• Two rings
• Bell cover
• Bell base
• Nuts and a central connecting flat

WORKING: When we press the disk shaped protrusion on the right, the gear(1) drives the pinion (2).The pinion(2) is riveted to gear(3).Gear(3) in turn drives pinion(4) to which the flat is riveted.This components has two rings attached freely to its ends.These rings fly and hit the rim of the bell cover and produce sound vibrations.The spring attached brings back the gear(1) to its original rest position.

MANUFACTURING: Most of the components have been made by punching and sheet metal works.The steel gears had been punched while the two small brass gears have been forged.The components have then been twisted and made in to the right shape.The bell top cover has been forged in to a dome shape.A protrusion looking towards the inside of the dome has been created towards
