The Standard Electrical Dictionary

  1. Chimes, Electric

    An apparatus employed to illustrate the principles of the electrostatic charge, involving the ringing of bells by electrostatic attraction and repulsion. It is used in connection with a frictional, or influence electric machine. Two bells are employed with a button or clapper suspended between them. One bell is connected to one of the prime conductors, q. v., of the machine. The other insulated therefrom is connected to earth, or if an influence machine is used, to the other prime conductor. The clappers are hung by a silk thread, so as to be entirely insulated. On working the machine the bells become oppositely excited. A clapper is attracted to one, then when charged is repelled and attracted to the other, it gives up its charge and becoming charged with similar electricity to that of the bell it touches, is repelled and attracted to the other, and this action is kept up as long as the excitement continues, the bells ringing continuously. Fig. 84. ELECTRIC CHIMES.
