Anchor escapement the tooth sliding along its surface, pushing it. Then the tooth slides off the end of the pallet, beginning the cycle again. Neither the anchor escapement nor the deadbeat form, below, are self-starting. The pendulum must be given a swing to get them going. The backward motion of the escape wheel during part of the cycle, called "recoil", is one of the disadvantages of the anchor escapement. It results in a temporary reversal of the entire wheel train back to the driving weight with each tick of the clock, causing extra wear in the wheel train, excessive wear to the
Osmotic-controlled release oral delivery system separate drug layers with different concentrations of methylphenidate in addition to the (now quite robust) push layer. OROS medications include: Osmotic-controlled release oral delivery system The osmotic-controlled release oral delivery system (OROS) is an advanced controlled release oral drug delivery system in the form of a rigid tablet with a semi-permeable outer membrane and one or more small laser drilled holes in it. As the tablet passes through the body, water is absorbed through the semipermeable membrane via osmosis, and the resulting osmotic pressure is used to push the active drug through the opening(s) in the tablet. OROS is a
