摘要

莫德斯莱父子公司为第一个公共计时球提供了设备,该设备于1833年在英国格林威治投入使用,其中包括一个用于球的链式提升机。在澳大利亚,莫德斯莱为新南威尔士州的悉尼建造了计时球装置,但带有齿条和齿轮提升机。1877年新南威尔士州纽卡斯尔队的比赛器械源自悉尼的设计,并在澳大利亚建造。1875年,南澳大利亚的信号器被推断为Charles Todd的设计,Charles Todd在1855年前往阿德莱德之前负责格林尼治的计时球操作,他对莫德斯雷的设计非常尊重。与格林尼治机场一样,它也使用了链式起重机,但有关其设计师和制造商的明确声明尚未找到。Semaphore很可能是第一个在澳大利亚制造的重型计时球设备,它的设计植根于莫德斯莱的经验。

The Contribution of Maudslay, Sons & Field to the Development of Time Balls in Australia
Maudslay, Sons & Field supplied the apparatus for the first public time ball, which became operational at Greenwich, England, in 1833 and included a chain hoist for the ball. In Australia, Maudslay's built the time ball apparatus for Sydney, NSW, but with a rack and pinion hoist. The 1877 apparatus for Newcastle, NSW was derived from the Sydney design and built in Australia. The 1875 apparatus for Semaphore, South Australia is deduced to be a development of a design by Charles Todd who was responsible at Greenwich for time ball operation before his departure for Adelaide in 1855 and who had a high regard for Maudslay's. Like that at Greenwich it used a chain hoist, but explicit statements about its designer and manufacturer have not yet been found. It is likely that Semaphore had the first heavy-duty time ball apparatus to be manufactured in Australia and that its design was rooted in Maudslay's experience.
