Fw: A new sundial - type from Bremen!
Hi Reinhold, The dial you cited is indeed a very nice one - but I would not call it a new type of sundial. The idea has been around for a while and in fact was the subject of a patent: on May 21, 1867 U.S. Patent # 64,892 was issued to Lloyd Mifflin for a mean time gnomon, consisting of a half analemma cut into a flat plate. Mifflin used this analemma in conjunction with an equatorial dial - just as Dietrich has.

Anyhow, it's just a hint, not the whole device as you show. Anselmo Thank you very much for your kind hint, dear Anselmo. Only some minutes after I had sent my message, Fred Sawyer told us about the patent of 1867 :-) So: If you read the German text, Dieter Vornholz writes in his text, that a similar sundial was not known to him. The list is really a very good place to get to know such things! The sundial, which my friend Dietrich Ahlers has built, was made for a client in Bavaria. He wanted to have a sundial, which works both in his hometown Wuerzburg and in Bangkok! - As he intended to present it to a friend in Thailand. Best Reinhold * ** *** * ** *** Reinhold R.

Re: A new sundial - type from Bremen!
Dear Reinhold, Thank you for your link to the new sundial at the site of Planetarium Bremen. It's a beautiful sundial and I enjoy it very much. But There is a but. The dial is called an "analemmatic equarorial sundial with light-pointer". No problems with "equarorial sundial with light-pointer" but with the word "analemmatic" in this sentence. An analemmatic sundial is a quit different type. Usual it is an horizontal dial with vertical gnomon on a scale of date and hourpoints on an ellips. I understand the "error" because in English the word analemma is also used for the EoT curve. So my advice is not to use the word "analemmatic" in the description of this dial. Thanks for sharing this nice sundial with us. Best wishes, Fer.

Re: A new sundial - type from Bremen!
Hi Reinhold, An excellent dial - thank you for sharing it with us. Being pedantic, I would describe it as analemmic dial, rather than an analemmatic one, but that doesn't detract from its quality. Regards, John Davis -
