Light powered chime with rotating electronics and motor suspended torsionally by its shaft

A light powered chime apparatus comprising:

• a substantially hollow resonant means that will sound when struck,
• a collector means for converting radiant energy into electrical energy,
• an energy storage means adapted to storing electrical energy from said collector means,
• a motor means for converting electrical energy into rotational motion of a motor shaft with respect to a motor housing,
• control means for switching electrical energy from said energy storage means to said motor means,
• a clapper means for striking,
• and a torsion means for storing rotational kinetic energy,
• and wherein a upper end of said torsion means is fixed near the top center of said resonant means so that the torsion means hangs down inside said resonant means,
• and wherein a lower end of said torsion means is attached to a working end of said motor shaft so that said rotational motion of said motor shaft applies torque to said lower end of said torsion means to wind said torsion means,
• and wherein said clapper means, collector means, energy storage means, control means, and motor housing are all attached together as an assembly inside said resonant means,
• and wherein said clapper means is offset horizontally from said motor means so that said assembly is balanced about its center of gravity in line with said motor shaft and so that said clapper means is near said resonant means,
• and wherein said control means periodically switches a pulse of electrical energy from said energy storage means to said motor means to wind said torsion means,
• and wherein said torsion means then unwinds and causes rotational motion of said assembly, causing said clapper means to move under centrifugal force to strike said resonant means.
