CONT

El yugo es el armazón de madera y herrajes unido a la campana que permite su movimiento. Existen dos tipos básicos de yugo, los que tienen contrapeso de madera (a veces incluyen piedras) y los que carecen de contrapeso. El primer tipo es propio de campanas que pueden balancearse o voltear. El segundo, en España, se utiliza para campanas fijas que se tocan solo con el badajo.
