ABSTRACT:
To prevent a striking clock temporarily from striking, a device is provided comprising a sectorial detent disc which is driven by the clockwork to make a revolution once in 24 hours and is mounted in the swing range of an engaging lever. To eliminate the effect of the detect disc for any period of time, or restoring its function again manually, while avoiding an obstruction of the normal function of the striking mechanism, the engaging lever is secured to a shaft which is driven through a lever by the striking mechanism and carries or actuates one or more hammers. The engaging lever is manually arrestable for any time in a position for preventing the striking motion of the hammers and the detent disc can be displaced away from the swing range of the engaging lever. The detent disc may be designed with individual sectors which are displaceable or deflectable into and out of the swing range of the engaging lever, so that the time periods during which the striking is eliminated can be varied.
