A bell swinging through a small arc acts as a simple pendulum, at a time interval governed by its size and shape. By swinging it through a much larger arc approaching a full circle, control of the strike interval can be exercised by the ringer. This culminated in the technique of full circle ringing, which enabled ringers to control the speeds of their individual bells accurately to sound them in orderly sequences. From this was born the art of <a href="/wiki/Change_ringing" title="Change ringing">change ringing</a>. </p><p>Speed control is exerted by the ringer only when each bell is nearly mouth upwards and moving slowly near the balance point; this constraint and the rope manipulation involved normally requires that each bell has its own ringer. The tower bells involved range from a few hundredweight up to a few tons<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>a<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and are most commonly associated with churches as a means of calling the congregation to worship. </p><p>Beginning in the mid-1980s, smaller sets of bells, known as "<a href="/wiki/Mini-ring" title="Mini-ring">mini-rings</a>", have come into existence. Their primary applications are for training, demonstration or leisure purposes, with bells weighing anything from a matter of ounces, to two-and-a-half hundredweight.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Most of these are in domestic settings and are privately owned, although some are owned by churches. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Mechanics">Mechanics</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Full_circle_ringing&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Mechanics"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:English_full_circle_bell_mechanism.png" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3e/English_full_circle_bell_mechanism.png/220px-English_full_circle_bell_mechanism.png" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3e/English_full_circle_bell_mechanism.png/330px-English_full_circle_bell_mechanism.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3e/English_full_circle_bell_mechanism.png/440px-English_full_circle_bell_mechanism.png 2x" data-file-width="1500" data-file-height="1125" /></a><figcaption>Mechanism of a bell hung for English full-circle ringing.

In this portable ring, the public can easily see how it works.</figcaption></figure> <p>There are several variations of the means of exerting control of the bell by the ringers, but the fundamental principle of being able to control and alter the speed of the bell striking is common to all full circle techniques. </p><p>The bell is attached to a <i>headstock</i>, historically made of wood but now more often steel. This has to withstand the dynamic force of the bell as it swings, up to three times its static weight. At each end of the headstock are protruding <a href="/wiki/Trunnion" title="Trunnion">trunnions</a> or bearing pins which are located in bearings attached to the frame. The frame is rigidly attached to the fabric of the tower. </p><p>Within the bell is a clapper which consists of a solid shaft, (wood, iron or steel) a clapper ball (wrought iron or steel) and a flight. The size of the flight determines the rate at which the clapper swings, and therefore the point in time at which it strikes the bell. </p><p>Bells are normally left mouth down (for safety). Before ringing, the bells are swung in increasing arcs until the bell is mouth uppermost. When the ringer desires to make a stroke, the bell is swung around a full circle, the clapper striking once. </p><p>There is no counter-balancing in English full-circle ringing, so the bell accelerates rapidly to its maximum velocity when mouth downwards and slows down as it rises to mouth upwards. In Veronese full-circle ringing there is a large amount of counter-balancing, so there is little net gravitation pull and the bell accelerates slowly and rotates gracefully. The small out-of-balance weight makes it much easier than English bells to stop the bells mouth upwards. However, English full-circle ringing is capable of much better control of bell speed, as it is independent of the counter-balance effect. The Bolognese style of bell hanging does not have any counter-balancing. </p><p>In English full circle ringing "<a href="/wiki/Mini-ring" title="Mini-ring">mini-rings</a>" are used to demonstrate how full-circle ringing on large bells works. These rings can be assembled quickly, but the bells are light and the ringing is fast. They demonstrate a difficult concept visually, as both the actions of the ringers and the bells can be seen simultaneously. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="The_distinctive_sound">The distinctive sound</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Full_circle_ringing&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: The distinctive sound"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The sound made by a bell rung full-circle has two unique subtle features: rapid strike decay and the <a href="/wiki/Doppler_effect" title="Doppler effect">Doppler effect</a>. </p><p>Because the clapper strikes the bell as it rises to the mouth upwards position, it rests against the bell's soundbow after the strike. The peak strike intensity decays away quickly since the clapper helps dissipate the bell's vibration energy. This enables rapid successive strikes of multiple bells, such as in change ringing, without excessive overlap and consequent blurring of successive strikes. In addition, the movement of the bell imparts a Doppler effect to the sound, as the strike occurs whilst the bell is still moving. </p><p>Both these effects give full circle ringing of bells in an accurate sequence a distinctive sound which cannot be simulated by stationary chimed bells. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Ringing_styles">Ringing styles</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Full_circle_ringing&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Ringing styles"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="English">English</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Full_circle_ringing&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: English"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1236090951">.mw-parser-output .hatnote{font-style:italic}.mw-parser-output div.hatnote{padding-left:1.6em;margin-bottom:0.5em}.mw-parser-output .hatnote i{font-style:normal}.mw-parser-output .hatnote+link+.hatnote{margin-top:-0.5em}@media print{body.ns-0 .mw-parser-output .hatnote{display:none!important}}</style><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Ring_of_bells" title="Ring of bells">Ring of bells</a></div> <p>The bells are mounted within a <i>bellframe</i> of steel or wood, and each bell is suspended from a <i>headstock</i> fitted to bearings so that the bell may rotate. </p><p>The headstock is fitted with a wooden <i>stay</i>, which, in conjunction with a <i>slider</i>, limits maximum rotational movement to just over a full circle, and allows the bell to be <i>set</i> or rested mouth uppermost. A large wheel is fitted to the headstock, and the rope wraps and unwraps as the bell rotates backwards and forwards. Within the bell is a clapper that strikes the thickest part of the bell mouth called the soundbow. In English, ringing a set of bells is known as a "ring of bells", and an example of a ring of eight bells is shown mouth upwards in the rest position in the accompanying image. </p><p>The ringers stand in a ringing chamber below, and the ropes pass through holes in the ceiling. The rope has a woollen grip called the <i>sally</i> while the lower end of the rope is doubled over to form an easily held <i>tail-end</i>. </p><p>Bells hung in this fashion gave rise to the invention of English <a href="/wiki/Change_ringing" title="Change ringing">Change ringing</a> in the 17th century because the bells' striking interval could be controlled.
