Short summary
This study mainly analyzed the mechanism and technology of nine existing vertically arranged mechanical turret clocks manufactured in Europe from the 15th to the 17th century, in order to determine the design rules based on mechanical evolution and variation. This study provided new historical materials that could be applied in the research of science and technology history, as well as in innovative and science education.
