What is the meaning of a 31 day clock?
Clocks that have to be wound by hand fall into two categories, those that have to be wound every day, and those that have to be wound at longer intervals. Those that have to be wound at longer intervals are usually either 8 day clocks, or 31 day clocks. What it means is that the clock is designed to be wound the same time of the month each month. If you had a 31 day clock, you could wind it on the first of every month and know that it would last to the next month no matter what month it was. 8 day clocks are designed to be wound every 7 days.

Why do 8 day movement clocks stop even though wound?
An 8-day movement clock may stop running even when fully wound due to issues such as dirt or lack of lubrication in the mechanism, worn parts, or incorrect adjustment. These factors can cause increased friction and lead to the clock stopping prematurely. Regular maintenance and professional servicing can help prevent these issues.

Why is apparent solar time not used to measure on a clock?
Because, when using "apparent solar time", the length of a "solar day" varies slightly during the year. (This is because the Earth's orbit isn't exactly circular and the Earth's axis is tilted.) "Clock time" is based on an average (or "mean") of these day lengths, called the "mean solar day". So clocks use "mean solar time". (By coincidence, on the date the question was answered (14th April) "apparent solar time" and 'clock' time are synchronised.) There's another reason for apparent solar time being different from clock time. "Clock time" uses time zones. So, over a wide area, the time on a clock equals the "mean solar time" at a particular, defining, longitude.
