Comment:

"All mechanical clocks use an escapement, to control the motion of the hands around the dial. The rate at which the hands travel around the dial is determined by the periodic time of the swing of the pendulum. To keep the pendulum swinging it needs to be given an impulse. This is done by the escapement. There are two essential components to the escapement. One is the escape wheel, which has teeth rather like those of a saw. The other is the pallets. In the anchor escapement they are shaped like a ships anchor and at the extremities have a triangular hook. Each hook, or pallet as they are called, is moved in between the escape wheel teeth alternately, by the swinging of the pendulum. Each time one of the pallets moves away from the tooth, the escape wheel moves a little until another tooth lands on the other pallet. One of the disadvantages of the anchor escapement is that like the Verge, it causes what is known as recoil. This is the pushing backwards of the escape wheel during the supplementary arc of the pendulum. The description, anchor recoil, is found in all text books. Recoil is the reversal of the entire train of wheel or gears in the clock all the way back to the driving weight. This causes excessive wear on the teeth and leaves of the pinions that make up the gear train."
