A clock tower with scoreboard was built at the new Jahn stadium of Regensburg, which exactly corresponds to the former tower at the old stadium. The landmark from the time-honored Jahn-Stadium was reproduced in detail, including, of course, the corresponding analogue outdoor clock.
The white lacquered dial made of glass fiber reinforced polyester has a diameter of 1.48 m and black lacquered minute markers.
The classic straight hands are made of aluminium sheet with a stainless steel substructure.
The Jahn clock is driven by the MiniTimer control clock via our motorized clockwork.
2 employees replaced the old bell supports with 5 new wooden yokes with bearings and bearing plates for 5 of the 7 bells in the St. Lorenz Basilica in Kempten. The yokes of bell 1 and 3 were renewed in 2003.
The bells are first lowered and the old bell supports are dismantled.
The new bell supports are lifted through the sound openings into the belfry by a crane.
The 5 new wooden bell supports with the new bell support straps are fitted exactly.
The bearing plates are fitted, before the bells are pulled up and set at the bell supports by a block and tackle.
The astronomical clock in the courtyard of the German Museum consists of a dial ring with a diameter of 6.6 m, a 1 meter wide ring with copper animal circle signs, an inner dial for the seconds and one for the weekdays with a diameter of about 3 m. We deinstalled and installed the complete clock and needed several thousand folios of gold during the renovation.
We are very pleased and proud that we were able to renovate the historically unique astronomical tower clock from 1940 with display of moon phase, hour, minute, second, year display (constellations) and weekday display for the German Museum.
The photos show the dismantling, the investigation of the colors, the work in our workshops, the renovated drive of the weekday display and the fully installed clock.
