Today, I am convinced that the basic principles are as follows : the wheel must have moveable weights. Those weights have a two fold purpose. The first is to provide the source of energy to the mechanisms that move the other weights, and second some of the weights must be in contact with the wheel at the perimeter and some must be closer to the axle. Not just a little closer but a lot closer. That one set of weights builds up energy and stores it in a spring with a latch (trigger) and then.... transfer this energy in a short burst to the set of weights ahead of it ..... as they swing they move the moveable weights into the 12 oclock position. The longer the weights stay on the right side ( descending side ) the more power they transfer directly to the mechanism as a whole.
