Possible count wheel design for electrical impulse

This is a design that could possibly work for making an electrical impulse happen...

When the pendulum (represented with a red line on the right) swings from left to right, it pulls the black arrow looking object with it, which in turn will catch on one of the teeth of the wheel and rotate it clockwise(like the red arrow shows). On the internal black circle, you can see a little hump, which is to the lower left of the red arrow. As the hump turns round with the toothed wheel, you will see that it pushes out the yellow outlined stick, and when pushed all of the way out, the yellow stick (which has an electrode on it), will touch the white stick (which has an electrode on it also), and will create an electrical circuit in turn,impulsing the pendulum. This 15 toothed wheel will basically make the connection happen every 30 seconds, which means that the pendulum will be impulsed every 30 seconds!
We'll see...
cheers
