For hundreds of years, millstones, hammers, sawmills, spinning mills have been powered by water wheels. Recently, there is a renewed interest in their use, both for their widespread diffusion in the territory, and for the excellent environmental integration. In the paper, the mechanical architecture of an old water mill, from water wheels to millstones, is described and the functional details of various mechanisms are provided.

Abstract

For hundreds of years, millstones, hammers, sawmills, spinning mills have been powered by water wheels. Recently, there is a renewed interest in their use, both for their widespread diffusion in the territory, and for the excellent environmental integration. In the paper, the mechanical architecture of an old water mill, from water wheels to millstones, is described and the functional details of various mechanisms are provided.
