It would be great to see the steps required to convert/rebuild these movements.
The barrel arbour might have just disconnected from the mainspring. Or come loose from the wall of the barrel.

If the spring isnt snapped it can probably be reset.

Might need to bend the end of the spring around the arbor a bit to make it so that it catches again.
