Embodiment
With reference to Fig. 1, comprise a wicket 11 according to the band calendar analog watch 10 of prior art, show date 12 in the wicket 11.28 expression these moons 28th of numeral among this figure.This date for example is to write on the light background with dark word.Hour hands 13 are positioned at 10 points, and minute hand 14 approximately points to 10 minutes.Only see the dial plate of wrist-watch 10, there is no telling is 10: 10 or 22: 10.In other words, can not distinguish AM time and PM time.Therefore, wrist-watch to the time in the user possibly get wrong, thereby make leading 12 hours of date conversion or lagged behind 12 hours.
According to data of the present invention; For example the date display packing can be remedied this defective; Through with the display window background contrastively mode show date; Adopt liquid crystal or similar digital display screen in this case, and at noon with put upside down contrast midnight so that distinguish (AM) and (PM) time in the morning time in the afternoon.Same method can be used to show the time corresponding to the another world area in second time zone.Two or more screens can also be arranged, so that realize this two demonstrations simultaneously.
The wrist-watch 20 that Fig. 2 A and 2B represent has been explained said method.As previously mentioned, wrist-watch 20 is with hour pointer 23, minute indicator 24, a digital display screen 21 and a time to regulate hat 25, on this digital display screen 21, shows for 22 dates, and numeral 28 for example was corresponding to this moon 28th.Among Fig. 2 A, numeral 28 is shown on the digital screen, dark word light color background, and for example the white background of surplus is promptly just apparent.Among Fig. 2 B, numeral 28 light word dark-background promptly instead show.In this way, if regulation is just showing anti-the showing corresponding to corresponding to the time in the afternoon time in the morning, just can distinguish (AM) and (PM) through agreement displayable, easy to implement the time in the morning time in the afternoon.Preferably automatically manage from anti-apparent, for example in the transition of date at midnight, in this case, carry out noon from just showing to the conversion of putting upside down that instead shows to the conversion of putting upside down that is just showing.Certainly also can conversely.
In order to realize the conversion of this way of contrast, adopt the numeral of EPD (Electronic PaperDisplay, i.e. " electric paper display ") type to show.The EPD display device has been known, can on carrier as thin as a wafer, carry out simple and effective reversible contrast and show.
For to this wrist-watch adjustment time, and on its screen, realize showing the conversion of putting upside down of contrast, a kind of admissible favourable scheme just is to use at the wrist-watch of transfering to the position and regulates hat.Regulate hat to the time and just cause that to direction rotation several years pointer rotates to a direction.Just cause that to another direction rotation several years pointer is to another direction rotation.The time of supposing is regulated between hat and the pointer and is not had mechanical connection, and the time adjustment realizes that through stepper motor microprocessor can be managed simultaneously in the transition on date at midnight and the way of contrast at management noon and midnight and put upside down conversion.
The wrist-watch 40 that Fig. 3 A and 3B represent has also been described said method.As previously mentioned, wrist-watch 40 has hour pointer 43, minute indicator 44, first digital display screen 41 (showing the for example date), second digital display screen 42 (showing the for example time in another time zone) are regulated with a time and is preced with 45.Among Fig. 3 A, the date that shows on the screen 41 is a numeral 28, corresponding to this month ground 28 days.Among Fig. 3 A, this numeral 28 is shown on the digital screen 41, dark word light color background, and for example the white background of surplus is promptly just apparent.Among Fig. 3 B, numeral 28 is shown as light word dark-background, promptly instead shows.The same with the instance of Fig. 2 A and 2B, if regulation just showed corresponding to, anti-showing corresponding to the time in the morning time in the afternoon, can distinguish (AM) and (PM) through agreement displayable, easy to implement so the time in the morning time in the afternoon.Preferably manage automatically from anti-apparent, for example in the transition of date at midnight, in this case, carry out noon from just showing to the conversion of putting upside down that instead shows to the conversion of putting upside down that is just showing.Certainly also can conversely.
On wrist-watch 40, the time of indication is 10: 10.Agreement according to the AM time just shows, the PM time instead shows is 10: 10 morning on the wrist-watch that Fig. 3 A representes, and is 10: 10 evening on the wrist-watch that Fig. 3 B representes, promptly 22: 10.
In order to realize this function, wrist-watch according to the present invention comprises mechanism as shown in Figure 4.This mechanism 30 comprises that one is regulated the time adjuster bar 31 that hat links to each other with the time, and its free end is square, is used for free shift sliding gear 32 on the driving stem.Attrition cam 33 is installed on the sliding gear 32.The sliding gear cam set remains in horizontal level by cam spring (clockwork spring) 35, and this cam spring 35 leans against when rest position on the plane of clamping plate 34 of wrist-watch.Two contact chips 36 are fixed on the electronic circuit 37 of wrist-watch, are positioned at the both sides of sliding gear 32 attrition cams 33 assemblies.Attrition cam 33 hollows out part in the middle of being, has two symmetric arms 33a and 33b, and these two symmetric arms 33a and 33b can set up between electronic circuit 37 and cam spring 35 and contact.
In adjustment during the time, the user is through regulating the attrition cam 33 that hat drives sliding gear 32, thereby to a direction or another direction rotational time adjuster bar 31 about 25 °.This cam acts on cam spring 35 through of lifting among two arm 33a, the 33b.Cam spring 35 promotes one of two contact chips 6 at end of travel according to its sense of rotation, so that set up and the electrically contacting of electronic circuit 37, this electronic circuit 37 is with the steering needle motor and show that the microprocessor of way of contrast links to each other.Loosened in case regulate hat, sliding gear 32 is just got back to horizontal level, is eliminated this contact.Possibly on bar 31, apply the situation of too big torque to the user, the friction between cam 33 and the sliding gear 32 is necessary.In this case, cam 33 slides on sliding gear 32, thereby it is disconnected to avoid time adjuster bar 31 to be sheared, or one of the part of time governor motion is damaged.
The date adjusting can be adjusted to two times.At first, short depression is regulated hat, entry date adjustment modes.Represent to have got into the date adjustment modes through the flicker on date.Be preced with the several years so that increase or the minimizing date to a direction or another direction rotation adjusting.Date passes through in order, to two same numbers are arranged every day, one anti-show one just apparent.Therefore can be directly with wrist-watch adjust into the morning pattern or afternoon pattern.
If calendar is a perpetual calendar, then the user at first adjusts two digits 0~99 after time of anti-display mode.Month passes through by 0~12 order with positive display mode.Date be equally by every day two same numbers pass through in proper order, one anti-show one just apparent.Therefore can be directly with wrist-watch adjust into the morning or afternoon pattern.Can regulate hat through short depression confirms adjustment or changes adjustment modes.
The present invention is not limited to described embodiment.The device that it is also conceivable that other comes the servo time display pointer and puts upside down conversion date demonstration way of contrast.Described servo mode can also be used to the analog watch with traditional LC D demonstration.As far as the demonstration on the digital display screen, indicated number can be different with the demonstration of time on date in another time zone.The quantity of display screen only receives the restriction of size or aesthetic.Anti-apparent still just showing depended on selection.On the contrary, demonstration put upside down the conversion principle be robotization and control by the motion microprocessor.
