Description

本発明は、外部から送信される無線電波を受信するアンテナを内蔵するアンテナ内蔵式電子時計に関する。   The present invention relates to an antenna built-in electronic timepiece having a built-in antenna for receiving radio waves transmitted from the outside.

従来、外部からの時刻情報等を含む無線電波をアンテナにて受信して、時刻修正等の処理を実施するアンテナ内蔵式の電子時計が知られている。
このようなアンテナ内蔵式の電子時計では、アンテナの他に、時計機能を実現するためのモーターや輪列などの様々な部品が配置されているため、アンテナはこれらの部品と干渉しないように配置する必要がある。従って、近年の電波時計の小型化や高機能化に伴い、アンテナのコア形状の縮小化、あるいは他のムーブメント部品や外装部品とアンテナが近接するなどにより、アンテナに入る標準電波の磁界強度が減少するおそれがある。
さらに、標準電波を受信してアンテナで共振された磁界の一部が近接したムーブメント部品や外装部品に入り込み渦電流が発生し、受信感度がアンテナ単体での感度より著しく低下するおそれがある。このため、アンテナに入る磁界強度の向上を行う方法や、近接する部品によるアンテナへの影響を少なくする方法が知られている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。
特許文献1に記載の時計は、近接する部品によるアンテナへの影響を少なくする方法として、アンテナで共振された磁界を集めて通す副磁部材を用いる。副磁部材は、絶縁性の両面接着テープにて本体ケースの内周面に固定され、内周面にアンテナを両面接着テープにて配置している。これにより、外装部品に入っていた磁界による渦電流損失を低減させて受信感度が確保できる。
ここで、無線電波には、例えば標準電波基地局から送信される長波標準電波等がある。
2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, an electronic timepiece with a built-in antenna that receives a radio wave including time information from the outside with an antenna and performs processing such as time correction is known.
In such an electronic timepiece with a built-in antenna, in addition to the antenna, various parts such as a motor and a train wheel for realizing the clock function are arranged, so the antenna is arranged so as not to interfere with these parts. There is a need to. Therefore, along with the recent downsizing and higher functionality of radio timepieces, the magnetic field strength of standard radio waves entering the antenna has decreased due to the reduction in the core shape of the antenna or the proximity of other movement parts and exterior parts to the antenna. There is a risk.
Furthermore, a part of the magnetic field that is received by the standard radio wave and resonated by the antenna enters a nearby movement part or exterior part, and an eddy current is generated, and the reception sensitivity may be significantly lower than the sensitivity of the antenna alone. For this reason, a method for improving the strength of the magnetic field entering the antenna and a method for reducing the influence of adjacent components on the antenna are known (for example, see Patent Document 1).
The timepiece described in Patent Document 1 uses a sub-magnetic member that collects and passes a magnetic field resonated by an antenna as a method of reducing the influence of adjacent components on the antenna. The sub-magnetic member is fixed to the inner peripheral surface of the main body case with an insulating double-sided adhesive tape, and an antenna is disposed on the inner peripheral surface with the double-sided adhesive tape. As a result, eddy current loss due to the magnetic field contained in the exterior component can be reduced to ensure reception sensitivity.
Here, the radio wave includes, for example, a long wave standard wave transmitted from a standard wave base station.

しかしながら、特許文献1に記載のような副磁部材を用いる構成では、電波時計の小型化に伴って副磁部材の大きさに制約ができてしまい、効果が減少してしまう。また、副磁部材の効果は副磁部材とアンテナコアの位置関係に依存するため、相対的な位置の変動が少ない固定方法が必要である。   However, in the configuration using the secondary magnetic member as described in Patent Document 1, the size of the secondary magnetic member can be restricted as the radio timepiece is downsized, and the effect is reduced. In addition, since the effect of the secondary magnetic member depends on the positional relationship between the secondary magnetic member and the antenna core, a fixing method with little relative positional fluctuation is required.

また、時計の内部スペースには制約があるのが一般的であり、副磁部材をアンテナの近くに固定して配置すると、他の構成部材と干渉してしまうおそれがある。そのため、副磁部材を他の構成部材と干渉しないように配置しなければならず、副磁部材の配置位置やサイズの制約が多くなってしまうという問題がある。   Further, the internal space of the watch is generally limited, and if the sub-magnetic member is fixed and arranged near the antenna, it may interfere with other components. For this reason, the sub-magnetic member must be arranged so as not to interfere with other constituent members, and there is a problem that the arrangement position and size of the sub-magnetic member increase.

本発明の目的は、配置位置やサイズの制約が少ない位置に副磁部材を配置できるアンテナ内蔵式電子時計を提供することにある。   An object of the present invention is to provide an electronic timepiece with a built-in antenna in which a sub-magnetic member can be arranged at a position where there are few restrictions on the arrangement position and size.

本発明のアンテナ内蔵式電子時計は、外装ケースと、外装ケース内に配置された文字板と、前記文字板の表面側に配置されたダイヤルリングと、前記文字板の裏面側に配置されたアンテナと、副磁部材とを備え、前記アンテナは、磁性材料で長手状に形成されるアンテナコアと、前記アンテナコアに巻回されるコイルとを備え、前記副磁部材は、前記アンテナコアに磁気結合されるとともに、前記ダイヤルリング内に配置されていることを特徴とする。   An electronic timepiece with built-in antenna according to the present invention includes an exterior case, a dial disposed in the exterior case, a dial ring disposed on the front side of the dial, and an antenna disposed on the back side of the dial. And an auxiliary magnetic member, and the antenna includes an antenna core formed in a longitudinal shape with a magnetic material, and a coil wound around the antenna core, and the auxiliary magnetic member is magnetically applied to the antenna core. It is combined, It is arrange | positioned in the said dial ring, It is characterized by the above-mentioned.

ここで、前記副磁部材がアンテナコアに磁気結合される構成としては、副磁部材がアンテナコアの両端部に磁気結合される構成が例示できる。
前記特許文献1のように、副磁部材をアンテナコア表面に貼付する場合には、他部品との干渉を考慮しなければならず、副磁部材の配置位置やサイズの制約が多くなる。
これに対し、本発明によれば、磁部材をダイヤルリング内に配置しているので、他部品との干渉などが無く、配置位置やサイズの制約が少なくなり、ダイヤルリングの内部スペースを有効に利用できる。また、副磁部材をダイヤルリングに組み込んだり、貼り付けたりすることができるので、副磁部材をアンテナに貼り付ける場合に比べて、時計の組み立て性を向上できる。
Here, examples of the configuration in which the secondary magnetic member is magnetically coupled to the antenna core include a configuration in which the secondary magnetic member is magnetically coupled to both ends of the antenna core.
When the secondary magnetic member is affixed to the antenna core surface as in Patent Document 1, interference with other parts must be taken into consideration, and the arrangement position and size of the secondary magnetic member increase.
On the other hand, according to the present invention, since the magnetic member is arranged in the dial ring, there is no interference with other parts, the arrangement position and the size are reduced, and the internal space of the dial ring is effectively used. Available. In addition, since the secondary magnetic member can be incorporated in or attached to the dial ring, the assembly of the timepiece can be improved compared to the case where the secondary magnetic member is attached to the antenna.

本発明において、前記ダイヤルリングの裏面には凹部が形成され、前記副磁部材は、前記凹部内に収納されていることが好ましい。   In the present invention, it is preferable that a recess is formed on the back surface of the dial ring, and the sub-magnetic member is housed in the recess.

前記ダイヤルリングの前記副磁部材側に凹部が形成されていれば、副磁部材の配置位置を正確に設定できる。このため、アンテナのアンテナコイル又は前記アンテナコアに対して、副磁部材を所定の位置に配置することもでき、副磁部材およびアンテナコアを確実に磁気結合することができる。   If the concave portion is formed on the dial ring on the side of the secondary magnetic member, the position of the secondary magnetic member can be set accurately. For this reason, a submagnetic member can also be arrange | positioned in a predetermined position with respect to the antenna coil of the antenna or the said antenna core, and a submagnetic member and an antenna core can be magnetically coupled reliably.

本発明において、前記副磁部材の端部は、前記アンテナのアンテナコイルに対し、時計を表面側から見た平面視において重なる位置に配置されていることが好ましい。   In the present invention, it is preferable that the end portion of the sub-magnetic member is disposed at a position overlapping the antenna coil of the antenna in a plan view when the timepiece is viewed from the surface side.

ここで、時計を表面側から見た平面視において重なる位置とは、時計をカバーガラス側から見た際に、副磁部材の端部と、アンテナコア又はアンテナコイルとが重なって見える位置を意味する。すなわち、副磁部材の端部と、アンテナコア又はアンテナコイルの端部とは、時計の厚さ方向に重なる位置に配置されている。
このような構成によれば、副磁部材とアンテナコアとの離間寸法を最小にでき、磁気結合を高めることができる。
Here, the overlapping position in a plan view of the timepiece when viewed from the front side means a position where the end of the secondary magnetic member and the antenna core or antenna coil appear to overlap when the timepiece is viewed from the cover glass side. To do. That is, the end portion of the secondary magnetic member and the end portion of the antenna core or the antenna coil are arranged at positions that overlap in the thickness direction of the timepiece.
According to such a configuration, the distance between the sub-magnetic member and the antenna core can be minimized, and the magnetic coupling can be enhanced.

本発明において、前記文字板は、透光性の部材で構成され、前記文字板の裏面には、ソーラーパネルが配置され、前記ソーラーパネルは、基板と、前記基板に形成された受光部とを備えており、前記基板における前記受光部の外側に基板外周部を有し、前記ダイヤルリングは、前記ソーラーパネルの前記基板外周部を被覆していることが好ましい。   In the present invention, the dial is composed of a translucent member, and a solar panel is disposed on the back surface of the dial. The solar panel includes a substrate and a light receiving portion formed on the substrate. Preferably, the substrate has a substrate outer peripheral portion outside the light receiving portion of the substrate, and the dial ring covers the substrate outer peripheral portion of the solar panel.

このような構成によれば、文字板が透光性であっても、文字板の裏側に配置されたソーラーパネルの基板外周部は前記ダイヤルリングで被覆できる。従って、本来、外部から視認されることを想定していない基板外周部が視認されることがないため、外観性を向上できる。   According to such a configuration, even if the dial is translucent, the outer peripheral portion of the solar panel disposed on the back side of the dial can be covered with the dial ring. Therefore, the outer peripheral portion of the substrate that is not supposed to be visually recognized from the outside is not visually recognized, so that the appearance can be improved.

本発明において、前記副磁部材は、アモルファス箔で形成されていることが好ましい。   In the present invention, the sub-magnetic member is preferably formed of an amorphous foil.

アモルファス箔としては、コバルト系アモルファス金属、鉄系アモルファス金属磁性材料等の各種アモルファス金属箔が利用できる。副磁部材をアモルファス箔で形成すれば、例えば、フェライト等で形成する場合よりも耐衝撃性や加工性を高めることができる。これは、フェライトは薄いと割れやすい特性があるのに対して、アモルファス箔は割れにくく、容易に曲げることができる特性を有するためである。   As the amorphous foil, various amorphous metal foils such as cobalt-based amorphous metal and iron-based amorphous metal magnetic material can be used. If the submagnetic member is formed of an amorphous foil, for example, impact resistance and workability can be improved as compared with the case of forming the submagnetic member with ferrite or the like. This is because when ferrite is thin, it has a characteristic of being easily broken, whereas amorphous foil is difficult to break and has a characteristic of being easily bent.

本発明において、前記副磁部材は、前記ダイヤルリングの凹部内に収納される副磁部材本体と、この副磁部材本体からアンテナコア側に突出する突出部を備え、前記文字板には、前記突出部が挿入される挿入部が形成されていることが好ましい。   In the present invention, the sub-magnetic member includes a sub-magnetic member main body housed in the recess of the dial ring, and a protruding portion that protrudes from the sub-magnetic member main body toward the antenna core. It is preferable that an insertion portion into which the protruding portion is inserted is formed.

このような構成によれば、副磁部材に、アンテナコア側に突出する突出部を設けたので、副磁部材とアンテナコアとの距離を近接させることができ、その距離によって副磁効果も調整できる。   According to such a configuration, since the sub magnetic member is provided with the protruding portion that protrudes toward the antenna core, the distance between the sub magnetic member and the antenna core can be made closer, and the sub magnetic effect is also adjusted by the distance. it can.

本発明において、前記副磁部材は、前記ダイヤルリング内に、少なくとも一部がインサート形成されていることが好ましい。
このような発明においては、文字板から透過して見えるソーラーパネルの外周外観を覆うダイヤルリング内に副磁部材がインサート形成されているので、ムーブメントに保持されているアンテナと副磁部材の距離の変動によりインダクタンス値が変動して同調周波数がずれて受信性能が劣化してしまう不具合や、アンテナで共振された磁界が分散されて渦電流損失の低減効果が薄れてしまう不都合を防止できる。従って、アンテナの同調周波数を設定値に維持でき、この点でも受信性能を向上できる。さらに、副磁部材はダイヤルリングにインサートされているので、時計落下時に外部からの衝撃を低減でき、副磁部材の破損を防止でき、耐衝撃性が向上する。特に衝撃に弱いアモルファス薄膜で副磁部材を構成した場合に、例えば電子時計の落下などで衝撃が加わっても、副磁部材はダイヤルリングに保護されるので副磁部材の破損を防止できる。
また、副磁部材はダイヤルリングにインサートされているので、時計の組み立て時に副磁部材を他のムーブメント部品に組みつける作業が不要となりムーブメントに副磁部材を固定するための部品費用やアッセンブル費用を低減できる。
In the present invention, it is preferable that at least a part of the sub-magnetic member is inserted in the dial ring.
In such an invention, since the secondary magnetic member is inserted in the dial ring that covers the outer peripheral appearance of the solar panel that can be seen through the dial, the distance between the antenna held by the movement and the secondary magnetic member can be reduced. It is possible to prevent inconveniences in which the inductance value fluctuates due to fluctuations and the tuning frequency shifts and the reception performance deteriorates, and inconvenience that the magnetic field resonated by the antenna is dispersed and the effect of reducing eddy current loss is diminished. Therefore, the tuning frequency of the antenna can be maintained at the set value, and reception performance can be improved in this respect. Furthermore, since the secondary magnetic member is inserted into the dial ring, impact from the outside can be reduced when the watch is dropped, damage to the secondary magnetic member can be prevented, and impact resistance is improved. In particular, when the secondary magnetic member is formed of an amorphous thin film that is vulnerable to impact, even if the impact is applied due to, for example, dropping of an electronic timepiece, the secondary magnetic member is protected by the dial ring, so that the secondary magnetic member can be prevented from being damaged.
In addition, since the sub-magnetic member is inserted into the dial ring, there is no need to assemble the sub-magnetic member to other movement parts when assembling the watch, and parts and assembly costs for fixing the sub-magnetic member to the movement are eliminated. Can be reduced.

以下、本発明の実施形態を図面に基づいて説明する。
アンテナ内蔵式電子時計である電波修正時計1は、図1に示すように、時針11,分針12,秒針13および文字板14を備えた指針式腕時計(アナログ時計)である。この電波修正時計1は、時刻情報を含む無線電波としての長波標準電波を受信し、受信した時刻情報に基づいて時針11,分針12,秒針13の指示位置を補正する。
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
As shown in FIG. 1, a radio-controlled timepiece 1 that is an electronic timepiece with a built-in antenna is a pointer-type wristwatch (analog timepiece) that includes an hour hand 11, a minute hand 12, a second hand 13, and a dial 14 as shown in FIG. The radio-controlled timepiece 1 receives a long-wave standard radio wave as a radio wave including time information, and corrects the indicated positions of the hour hand 11, the minute hand 12, and the second hand 13 based on the received time information.

電波修正時計1は、さらに、標準電波を受信するアンテナ100および前記各指針11〜13の駆動を制御する各種構成が組み込まれたモジュール(ムーブメント)10と、前記モジュール10等を内部に収納する外装ケース20と、時刻合わせ等を行うリュウズ2と、受信動作などを行うボタン3,4とを備える。
ここで、文字板14としては、例えば合成樹脂やガラス等の非導電性素材から形成されていることが好ましく、これにより、後述するカバーガラス24側(時計表面側)から進入する標準電波が阻害されず、アンテナ100にて良好に受信させることが可能となる。
The radio-controlled timepiece 1 further includes an antenna 100 that receives a standard radio wave and a module (movement) 10 in which various configurations for controlling driving of the hands 11 to 13 are incorporated, and an exterior housing the module 10 and the like inside. The case 20 includes a crown 2 for performing time adjustment and the like, and buttons 3 and 4 for performing a reception operation and the like.
Here, the dial plate 14 is preferably formed of a non-conductive material such as synthetic resin or glass, for example, so that the standard radio wave entering from the cover glass 24 side (watch face side) described later is inhibited. However, the antenna 100 can receive well.

外装ケース20は、図2にも示すように、略円筒状のケース本体21と、ケース本体21の下面側の開口を閉塞する裏蓋22と、ケース本体21の上面側に嵌合構造により取り付けられるリング状のベゼル23と、ベゼル23の内周面に取り付けられるカバーガラス24とを備える。   As shown in FIG. 2, the exterior case 20 is attached to the substantially cylindrical case body 21, a back cover 22 that closes the opening on the lower surface side of the case body 21, and a fitting structure on the upper surface side of the case body 21. A ring-shaped bezel 23 and a cover glass 24 attached to the inner peripheral surface of the bezel 23.

外装ケース20内には、図3に示すように、前記モジュール10と、モジュール10を保持する保持リング部材30と、保持リング部材30に保持されるソーラーパネル40と、ソーラーパネル40の表側に配置される透光性の文字板14とが配置されている。
なお、モジュール10は、前記アンテナ100の他、地板、回路基板、ステッピングモーター、駆動輪列等が組み込まれた一般的な構成を採用しているため、以下では説明を省略する。
In the outer case 20, as shown in FIG. 3, the module 10, the holding ring member 30 holding the module 10, the solar panel 40 held by the holding ring member 30, and the front side of the solar panel 40 are arranged. A translucent dial 14 is disposed.
In addition, since the module 10 employs a general configuration in which a ground plane, a circuit board, a stepping motor, a driving wheel train and the like are incorporated in addition to the antenna 100, description thereof is omitted below.

ソーラーパネル40は、図3,4に示すように、平面視略円形状の基板41と、基板41の表面側に形成されたソーラーパネルの受光部42とを備えており、受光部42の外側に基板外周部43を有する。また、受光部42は、複数の領域(本実施形態では5つ)に分割され、各領域の出力を直列接続することで発電電圧を向上させている。
各受光部42の外周は、保持リング部材30に沿ってほぼ円周状に形成されている。2つの受光部42の一部分は、内周側に凹んでおり、この部分の基板外周部43の面積は広くされている。そして、この基板外周部43の領域の広い部分に貫通穴を設けて基板41の裏面側にプラスおよびマイナスの各端子44を設け、この端子44に導通部材(図示略)を接続し、この導通部材を介してモジュール10の回路基板(図示略)に電気的に接続される。これにより、ソーラーパネル40は、文字板14を透過した太陽光が受光部42に当たることで発電を行い、受光部42で発電された電力は、導通部材を介して回路基板に設けられた二次電池(図示略)に充電され、この二次電池の出力で回路基板等が駆動される。
As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the solar panel 40 includes a substrate 41 having a substantially circular shape in plan view and a light receiving unit 42 of a solar panel formed on the surface side of the substrate 41, and the outside of the light receiving unit 42. Has a substrate outer peripheral portion 43. In addition, the light receiving unit 42 is divided into a plurality of regions (in this embodiment, five), and the power generation voltage is improved by connecting the outputs of the regions in series.
The outer periphery of each light receiving portion 42 is formed in a substantially circumferential shape along the holding ring member 30. A part of the two light receiving portions 42 is recessed toward the inner peripheral side, and the area of the substrate outer peripheral portion 43 in this portion is widened. A through hole is provided in a wide portion of the substrate outer peripheral portion 43, plus and minus terminals 44 are provided on the back side of the substrate 41, and a conducting member (not shown) is connected to the terminals 44. It is electrically connected to a circuit board (not shown) of the module 10 via a member. As a result, the solar panel 40 generates power when the sunlight transmitted through the dial 14 hits the light receiving unit 42, and the power generated by the light receiving unit 42 is a secondary provided on the circuit board via the conductive member. A battery (not shown) is charged, and a circuit board or the like is driven by the output of the secondary battery.

アンテナ100は、図1,4に示すように、長手状に形成されており、外装ケース20内において時計の9時位置に配置されている。
このアンテナ100は、アンテナコア110と、アンテナコア110に巻回されるコイル120とにより構成されている。
アンテナコア110は、コイル120が巻回されるコイル巻部111と、コイル巻部111の両端側から延出するリード部112とを備え、長手状に形成されている。ここで、コイル巻部111は直線状に、リード部112は円弧状に形成されている。このアンテナコア110は、例えば、磁性箔材としてのコバルト系のアモルファス箔(例;Co50wt%以上のアモルファス箔)を型で打ち抜くか、エッチングで成形したものを10〜30枚程接着して重ね合わせ、焼鈍などの熱処理を行って磁気特性を安定化させたものである。
そして、アンテナコア110は、図2に示すように、平面状のアモルファス箔を、電波修正時計1の厚さ方向(カバーガラス24および裏蓋22を結ぶ方向)に積層して構成されている。なお、アンテナコア110としては、積層アモルファス箔に限定されず、フェライトを用いてもよく、この場合には、型などで成形し、熱処理して製造すればよい。
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, the antenna 100 is formed in a longitudinal shape, and is disposed in the exterior case 20 at the 9 o'clock position of the timepiece.
The antenna 100 includes an antenna core 110 and a coil 120 wound around the antenna core 110.
The antenna core 110 includes a coil winding portion 111 around which the coil 120 is wound, and lead portions 112 extending from both ends of the coil winding portion 111, and is formed in a longitudinal shape. Here, the coil winding portion 111 is formed in a linear shape, and the lead portion 112 is formed in an arc shape. The antenna core 110 is formed by, for example, punching a cobalt-based amorphous foil (eg, an amorphous foil of Co 50 wt% or more) as a magnetic foil material with a mold or bonding about 10 to 30 pieces formed by etching. The magnetic properties are stabilized by heat treatment such as annealing.
As shown in FIG. 2, the antenna core 110 is configured by laminating a planar amorphous foil in the thickness direction of the radio-controlled timepiece 1 (direction connecting the cover glass 24 and the back cover 22). The antenna core 110 is not limited to the laminated amorphous foil, and ferrite may be used. In this case, the antenna core 110 may be formed by a mold and heat-treated.

コイル120は、長波標準電波(40〜77.5kHz)を受信する場合、10mH程度のインダクタンス値が必要となる。このため、本実施形態では、コイル120として直径0.1μm程度のウレメット線を数百ターンほど巻いて構成している。   The coil 120 needs an inductance value of about 10 mH when receiving a long-wave standard radio wave (40 to 77.5 kHz). For this reason, in this embodiment, the coil 120 is configured by winding a uremet wire having a diameter of about 0.1 μm for several hundred turns.

ベゼル23の内周側には、図2に示すように、ダイヤルリング25が配置され、このダイヤルリング25の内周部分は、文字板14に向かう傾斜面となっている。
ダイヤルリング25は、図3および図4に示すように、ソーラーパネル40の基板外周部43を被覆している。すなわち、ダイヤルリング25の内周縁251は、前記ソーラーパネル40の基板外周部43よりも内側に配置されている。これにより、透光性の文字板14からソーラーパネル40が透けて見える場合でも、ソーラーパネル40の基板外周部43や、形状の不揃いなソーラーパネル40の受光部の外周などは、ダイヤルリング25によって覆われるため、違和感なく視認されないようにされている。
As shown in FIG. 2, a dial ring 25 is disposed on the inner peripheral side of the bezel 23, and an inner peripheral portion of the dial ring 25 is an inclined surface facing the dial 14.
As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the dial ring 25 covers the substrate outer peripheral portion 43 of the solar panel 40. That is, the inner peripheral edge 251 of the dial ring 25 is disposed on the inner side of the substrate outer peripheral portion 43 of the solar panel 40. Thereby, even when the solar panel 40 can be seen through the translucent dial plate 14, the substrate outer peripheral portion 43 of the solar panel 40, the outer periphery of the light receiving portion of the solar panel 40 whose shape is not uniform, and the like are controlled by the dial ring 25. Since it is covered, it is made not to be visually recognized without a sense of incongruity.

前記ダイヤルリング25の裏面には、図2に示すように、凹部252が形成されている。各凹部252には、副磁部材61が配置されている。副磁部材61は、凹部252に接着剤などによって接合されている。
副磁部材61の一部および全部は、図1,4に示すように、コイル120に平面視において重なる位置に配置されている。すなわち、アンテナ100のコイル120と副磁部材61とは、間に文字板14およびソーラーパネル40を挟んで、電波修正時計1の厚さ方向に離れてかつ重なって配置されている。
As shown in FIG. 2, a recess 252 is formed on the back surface of the dial ring 25. A sub-magnetic member 61 is disposed in each recess 252. The sub magnetic member 61 is joined to the recess 252 with an adhesive or the like.
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, a part and the whole of the sub magnetic member 61 are arranged at a position overlapping the coil 120 in plan view. That is, the coil 120 and the sub magnetic member 61 of the antenna 100 are disposed so as to be separated and overlapped in the thickness direction of the radio-controlled timepiece 1 with the dial 14 and the solar panel 40 interposed therebetween.

副磁部材61は、ダイヤルリング25の平面形状に合わせて略円弧状に形成され、リード部112には平面視において重ならないよう配置されている。   The sub magnetic member 61 is formed in a substantially arc shape in accordance with the planar shape of the dial ring 25, and is disposed so as not to overlap the lead portion 112 in plan view.

この副磁部材61は、アモルファス箔を複数層に積層して形成され、このアモルファス箔としては、例えばコバルト系アモルファス(Co−Fe−Ni−B−Si)などが挙げられる。この副磁部材61は、例えばコバルト系アモルファス(Co−Fe−Ni−B−Si)の場合で比透磁率が20000であり、ダイヤルリング25、文字板14およびソーラーパネル40に比べてはるかに高い透磁率を有している。従って、副磁部材61には、アンテナで共振された磁界の一部である磁束線が集められ磁界が強くなり、一方のリード部112から副磁部材61を介して他方のリード部112を通過する磁束線の磁束密度も高くなる。このことによりアンテナで共振された磁界の一部である磁束線が、アンテナコア110からケース本体21やベゼル23に流れ吸収されることを防止できる。従って、ケース本体21やベゼル23で発生していた渦電流損失を低減でき、アンテナの受信感度の低下を防止することができる。また、アンテナコア110からムーブメントの金属部品(輪列等)に入っていた磁界の一部も副磁部材61を通過し、ムーブメント部品に吸収されることを防止できる。このため、ムーブメント部品で発生していた渦電流損失を低減することができる。   The submagnetic member 61 is formed by laminating an amorphous foil in a plurality of layers. Examples of the amorphous foil include cobalt-based amorphous (Co—Fe—Ni—B—Si). The secondary magnetic member 61 is, for example, cobalt-based amorphous (Co—Fe—Ni—B—Si), has a relative magnetic permeability of 20000, and is much higher than the dial ring 25, dial 14, and solar panel 40. It has magnetic permeability. Therefore, magnetic flux lines that are part of the magnetic field resonated by the antenna are collected on the secondary magnetic member 61 and the magnetic field becomes stronger, and passes from the one lead portion 112 to the other lead portion 112 via the secondary magnetic member 61. The magnetic flux density of the magnetic flux lines to be increased also increases. As a result, it is possible to prevent magnetic flux lines, which are part of the magnetic field resonated by the antenna, from flowing from the antenna core 110 to the case body 21 and the bezel 23 and being absorbed. Therefore, eddy current loss generated in the case main body 21 and the bezel 23 can be reduced, and a decrease in reception sensitivity of the antenna can be prevented. Further, part of the magnetic field that has entered the movement metal parts (such as the train wheel) from the antenna core 110 can also be prevented from passing through the sub-magnetic member 61 and being absorbed by the movement parts. For this reason, the eddy current loss which generate | occur | produced in the movement components can be reduced.

ここで、副磁部材61とアンテナコア110とは、前述の通り、時計厚さ方向に離れて配置される。副磁部材61およびアンテナコア110は、磁気的に結合すれば良いため、密着している必要は無く、文字板14およびソーラーパネル40が間に介在していても十分に磁気的に結合する。   Here, as described above, the sub magnetic member 61 and the antenna core 110 are disposed apart from each other in the watch thickness direction. The sub-magnetic member 61 and the antenna core 110 need only be magnetically coupled, and therefore do not need to be in close contact with each other, and are sufficiently magnetically coupled even if the dial 14 and the solar panel 40 are interposed therebetween.

上述した本実施形態によれば、以下の効果を奏する。
(1)本実施形態によれば、アンテナコア110に磁気結合する副磁部材61を設けたので、このような副磁部材61が設けられてない場合に比べて受信感度を向上できる。
その上、副磁部材61をダイヤルリング25内に配置しているので、副磁部材61をモジュール10内に配置する場合のように、他の部品と干渉することもない。このため、ダイヤルリング25内であれば配置位置やサイズの制約が無いため、受信特性を向上させるために適した配置位置やサイズおよび形状を自由に設定できる。さらに、ダイヤルリング25の内部スペースに副磁部材61を配置できるので、時計の厚さが増大することもなく、ダイヤルリング25の内部スペースを有効利用できる。
According to this embodiment mentioned above, there exist the following effects.
(1) According to the present embodiment, since the secondary magnetic member 61 that is magnetically coupled to the antenna core 110 is provided, the receiving sensitivity can be improved as compared with the case where such a secondary magnetic member 61 is not provided.
In addition, since the secondary magnetic member 61 is disposed in the dial ring 25, it does not interfere with other components as in the case where the secondary magnetic member 61 is disposed in the module 10. For this reason, since there is no restriction on the arrangement position and size within the dial ring 25, an arrangement position, size and shape suitable for improving the reception characteristics can be freely set. Furthermore, since the secondary magnetic member 61 can be disposed in the internal space of the dial ring 25, the internal space of the dial ring 25 can be effectively used without increasing the thickness of the timepiece.

(2)ダイヤルリング25の凹部252に副磁部材61が配置されているので、ダイヤルリング25に対する副磁部材61の位置決めを容易にかつ正確にできる。このため、アンテナ100に対する副磁部材61の位置も正確に設定でき、他の金属部品内に発生する渦電流損失の防止効果も最適化できる。
また、副磁部材61の全部および一部を、アンテナ100のコイル120に対して時計厚さ方向で重なる位置に配置しているので、副磁部材61およびアンテナコア110の離間寸法を最小にできる。従って、間に文字板14やソーラーパネル40が介在されていても、磁気結合を高めることができ、この点でも渦電流損失の防止効果を最適化できる。
(2) Since the secondary magnetic member 61 is disposed in the recess 252 of the dial ring 25, the secondary magnetic member 61 can be easily and accurately positioned with respect to the dial ring 25. For this reason, the position of the sub magnetic member 61 with respect to the antenna 100 can also be set accurately, and the prevention effect of the eddy current loss which generate | occur | produces in another metal component can also be optimized.
In addition, since all and a part of the secondary magnetic member 61 are arranged at positions overlapping the coil 120 of the antenna 100 in the clockwise thickness direction, the distance between the secondary magnetic member 61 and the antenna core 110 can be minimized. . Therefore, even if the dial 14 and the solar panel 40 are interposed, the magnetic coupling can be enhanced, and the effect of preventing eddy current loss can be optimized in this respect.

(3)さらに、副磁部材61をダイヤルリング25に組み込んで貼り付けているので、副磁部材61をアンテナのコイル120やケース本体21等に貼り付ける場合に比べて、時計の組み立て性を向上できる。また、電波修正時計1を落下した場合のように衝撃等が加わった場合でも、副磁部材61をダイヤルリング25で保護できて強度をアップでき、耐衝撃性能も向上できる。 (3) Further, since the secondary magnetic member 61 is assembled and attached to the dial ring 25, the assembling property of the watch is improved as compared with the case where the secondary magnetic member 61 is attached to the coil 120 of the antenna, the case main body 21 or the like. it can. Even when an impact or the like is applied, such as when the radio-controlled timepiece 1 is dropped, the sub-magnetic member 61 can be protected by the dial ring 25, the strength can be increased, and the impact resistance can be improved.

(4)副磁部材61は、複数枚のアモルファス箔が複数積層されて形成されているので、アンテナで共振された磁界の一部である磁束線の集磁効果を高めることができる。 (4) Since the submagnetic member 61 is formed by laminating a plurality of amorphous foils, the magnetic flux collecting effect of magnetic flux lines that are part of the magnetic field resonated by the antenna can be enhanced.

(5)ソーラーパネル40の基板外周部43をダイヤルリング25で被覆しているので、外部から視認されることを想定していない基板外周部43や受光部42の外周縁が文字板14から透過して外部から視認されることがなく、違和感のない文字板表面となり電波修正時計1の外観を向上できる。 (5) Since the substrate outer peripheral portion 43 of the solar panel 40 is covered with the dial ring 25, the outer peripheral edge of the substrate outer peripheral portion 43 and the light receiving portion 42 that are not supposed to be visually recognized from the outside are transmitted from the dial 14. As a result, it is possible to improve the appearance of the radio-controlled timepiece 1 because it is not visually recognized from the outside and becomes a dial surface without a sense of incongruity.

In the embodiment, the secondary magnetic member 61 is made of an amorphous metal that is a ferromagnetic member. However, the secondary magnetic member 61 is more than the magnetic permeability of the dial 14, the solar panel 40, the case body 21, and the bezel 23. What is necessary is just to comprise by the material which has a large magnetic permeability, and the material should just select suitably by the material of said each component, the presence or absence of the solar panel 40 (including the radio timepiece which does not depend on solar power generation), etc.

In the above embodiment, the secondary magnetic member 61 is disposed in the recess 252 formed in the dial ring 25. However, the dial ring 25 may be manufactured by insert molding in which the secondary magnetic member 61 is disposed.
Further, the planar position of the sub-magnetic member 61 is not limited to the position overlapping the coil 120 of the antenna 100 but may be disposed at a position shifted in a plane with respect to the lead part 112 and is magnetically coupled to the lead part 112. What is necessary is just to provide in the position which can.

さらに、図5に示すように、副磁部材61は、ダイヤルリング25の凹部252内に収納される副磁部材本体611と、この副磁部材本体611からアンテナコア110側に突出する突出部612とを備えたものでもよい。この突出部612は、副磁部材本体611と別体に形成したアモルファス箔材を積層して柱状に構成し、副磁部材本体611に接着したものである。
また、文字板14は、前記突出部612が挿入される挿入部141となる穴が形成されている。
このような構成によれば、副磁部材61の突出部612を挿入部141に配置することで、前記実施形態に比べて、副磁部材61とリード部112の距離を近接させることができる。従って、副磁部材61およびリード部112の磁気結合の強さを高めることができ、副磁部材61により他の金属部品内に発生する渦電流損失の防止効果も最適化できると共にその効果を調整できる。
Further, as shown in FIG. 5, the secondary magnetic member 61 includes a secondary magnetic member main body 611 housed in the concave portion 252 of the dial ring 25, and a protruding portion 612 that protrudes from the secondary magnetic member main body 611 toward the antenna core 110.

Therefore, the strength of the magnetic coupling between the sub magnetic member 61 and the lead portion 112 can be increased, and the effect of preventing the eddy current loss generated in other metal parts by the sub magnetic member 61 can be optimized and the effect can be adjusted. it can.

なお、突出部612は、フェライト材などの他の磁性部材で構成してもよい。また、副磁部材61をフェライト材で構成する場合には、副磁部材本体611および突出部612を一体に成形して構成すればよい。
さらに、ソーラーパネル40に挿入部141に連続する穴を設け、突出部612をソーラーパネル40を通過し突出させて配置してもよい。
Note that the protruding portion 612 may be made of another magnetic member such as a ferrite material. Further, when the secondary magnetic member 61 is made of a ferrite material, the secondary magnetic member main body 611 and the protruding portion 612 may be integrally formed.
Furthermore, the solar panel 40 may be provided with a hole continuous to the insertion portion 141, and the projecting portion 612 may be projected through the solar panel 40.

前記実施形態では、アンテナコア110は、直線状に形成されたコイル巻部111と、コイル巻部111の両端に円弧状に形成されたリード部112とを備える構成としたが、コイル巻部111およびリード部112が直線上に配置された構成としてもよい。
つまり、外装ケース20や文字板14の形状に合わせて、ダイヤルリング25は、その形状をデザインされているので、角型の外装ケースやバケット型の外装ケースの場合にはコイル巻部111およびリード部112が直線上に配置されたアンテナとなるものでもよい。

That is, since the dial ring 25 is designed in accordance with the shape of the outer case 20 or the dial 14, the coil winding portion 111 and the lead are used in the case of a rectangular outer case or a bucket-type outer case. The part 112 may be an antenna arranged on a straight line.
In the said embodiment, although the solar panel 40 was fixed to the back surface of the dial plate 14 was shown, it is not limited to this, It is good also as a structure with which the solar panel 40 is not provided.

前記実施形態では、アンテナを用いて通信する無線情報として、時刻情報を例示したがこれに限らない。例えば、電波修正時計1内にICカード機能を内蔵させ、電車の定期券や各種プリペイドICカードのような情報を送受信するために利用してもよい。例えば、外装ケース20内にICチップとアンテナ等を組み込み、ICカードを用いた改札機や入退室管理機、各種の課金支払機等に腕時計を近接させて情報をやり取りできるようにしてもよい。この場合、別途、ICカードを出し入れする必要がなく、時計1をはめた手を近付けるだけでよいため、操作性を非常に向上することができる。
従って、本発明の外装ケース20に内蔵されるアンテナとしては、標準電波を受信する場合のような受信専用に用いるものでもよいし、非接触ICを用いたタグのように、情報を送受信するために用いてもよいし、さらには送信専用に用いてもよく、これらは本発明を適用するアンテナ内蔵式電子時計の種類に応じて適宜選択すればよい。

For example, an IC card function may be built in the radio-controlled timepiece 1 and used for transmitting and receiving information such as train commuter passes and various prepaid IC cards. For example, an IC chip and an antenna may be incorporated in the exterior case 20 so that information can be exchanged by placing a wristwatch close to a ticket gate using a smart card, an entrance / exit management machine, various billing machines, or the like. In this case, it is not necessary to insert and remove the IC card separately, and it is only necessary to bring the hand holding the timepiece 1 closer, so that the operability can be greatly improved.
Therefore, the antenna built in the outer case 20 of the present invention may be used exclusively for reception as in the case of receiving a standard radio wave, or for transmitting and receiving information like a tag using a non-contact IC. Or may be used exclusively for transmission, and these may be appropriately selected according to the type of electronic timepiece with a built-in antenna to which the present invention is applied.
