Summary of the invention
The present invention makes in view of the premises, its purpose is to provide a kind of clock and watch with date and am/pm Presentation Function, when arbor (winding stem) pulled into different pull-out location, position when normally walking with pointer, can confirm the differentiation of am/pm as required.
In order to reach above-mentioned purpose, the clock and watch of band date of the present invention and am/pm Presentation Function have: 24 hour wheels, and this 24 hour wheel rotated a circle in per 24 hours; Arbor, this arbor can be when pointer is normally walked be come in and gone out between position and the pull-out location; And the am/pm indication mechanism, when arbor pulled into described pull-out location, this am/pm indication mechanism showed it is the morning or afternoon according to the position of rotation of 24 hour wheels.
In the clock and watch of band of the present invention date and am/pm Presentation Function, owing to be provided with " position of rotation according to 24 hour wheels when arbor pulled into the pull-out location shows it is the am/pm indication mechanism in the morning or afternoon ", therefore under the situation of observing, when arbor being pulled out to different pull-out location, position when normally walking, can confirm reliably that the demonstration time of hour hands is the morning or afternoon with pointer with 24 hours systems.Therefore, typically, when arbor being pulled out to the pull-out location of position different being used to carrying out pointer calibration when normally walking, can reliably pointer be calibrated to the predetermined current time in the morning or afternoon with pointer.Consequently, in the clock and watch of band am/pm Presentation Function of the present invention, can make the change of date demonstration corresponding reliably opportunity with the opportunity of the date change of reality.At this, the demonstration of am/pm can be only to be shown as the morning under the situation in the morning, thereby and do not show under the situation in the afternoon and be shown as the non-morning but afternoon, on the contrary, also can be only to be shown as afternoon under in the afternoon the situation, thereby and under the situation in the morning, do not show and be shown as non-afternoon but the morning, and, also can be under the situation in the morning clearly (directly) be shown as the morning and under in the afternoon the situation clearly (directly) be shown as afternoon.
Date shows is typically undertaken by the date window of date wheel with the date that shows this date wheel.But, as required, also can adopt the pin on indication date or make day star-wheel (datastar wheel) self rotation that shows date.
In the clock and watch of band of the present invention date and am/pm Presentation Function, 24 hour wheels typically dispose with one heart with hour hands and minute hand.Yet, can be not concentric with a side or the both sides of hour hands or minute hand yet.In addition, the date finger driving wheel (data indicator driving wheel) that is used to rotate date wheel is actually 24 hours 24 hour wheels that rotate a circle, therefore in that date finger driving wheel is used as under the situation of 24 hour wheels, also can 24 hour wheels be set in addition for the am/pm indication mechanism.
In the clock and watch of band of the present invention date and am/pm Presentation Function, typically, the am/pm indication mechanism has: am/pm shows cam, 24 hour wheels whenever rotate a circle, this am/pm shows that cam also correspondingly rotates a circle, and have show in morning that expression 24 hour wheels are positioned at the position of rotation in the morning facial and represent that 24 hour wheels are positioned at demonstration in the afternoon cam face of the position of rotation in afternoon with cam; And the display unit of the form of cam follower, when arbor pulled into described pull-out location, thereby show in the display unit of the form of this cam follower and the morning with showing with the facial butt of cam to show it is the morning or afternoon in cam face or afternoon.But, the indication mechanism that replaces machinery, am/pm indication mechanism also can form when arbor pulled into described pull-out location according to the position of rotation of 24 hour wheels to show it is the morning or afternoon with other non-mechanical information (for example if then " date window internal radiation is become red " morning etc.) of colorama and so on.
Have at the am/pm indication mechanism under the situation of display unit of the form that aforesaid am/pm shows cam and aforesaid cam follower, when arbor is pulled out to described pull-out location, thereby the display unit of the form of cam follower and am/pm show to show the morning of cam with showing with the facial butt of cam to show it is the morning or afternoon in cam face or afternoon, therefore can be according to the demonstration of carrying out am/pm reliably of pulling out of arbor.
In addition, at this, display unit is the parts of " be connected to when arbor is pulled out to described pull-out location and show the morning with cam face or demonstration in afternoon cam face ", therefore, under the state, display unit can not be in the state with the cam surface butt when the pointer that arbor does not pulled into described pull-out location is normally walked.
In the clock and watch of band of the present invention date and am/pm Presentation Function, typically, described display unit has and can move between operating position and non-operating position and have by the display pole of fastening portion, arbor has fastening portion, under the situation of the position beyond arbor is positioned at described pull-out location, display pole by of the fastening portion fastening of fastening portion by arbor, thereby display pole stops at non-operating position.
In this case, pulled into described pull-out location from arbor, the fastening portion of arbor is disengaged the fastening by fastening portion of display pole, and display pole can move to operating position from non-operating position.
Typically, display pole constitutes and can rotate by the rotation center axis around this display pole between operating position and non-operating position.But, as required, also can replace display pole can be swung between operating position and non-operating position, the ground to-and-fro movement of perhaps can going forward side by side.
In the clock and watch of band of the present invention date and am/pm Presentation Function, typically, described display unit has elasticity deflection unit, and this elasticity deflection unit applies from the described non-operating position of the display pole angular force towards described operating position comprising described display pole main part by fastening portion.
In this case, only the fastening portion by removing arbor to display pole by the fastening of fastening portion, display pole is partial in elasticity under the effect of unit from non-operating position to the operating position displacement.
In the clock and watch of band of the present invention date and am/pm Presentation Function, typically, elasticity deflection unit is made of the spring with display pole main part one.But elasticity deflection unit also can be arranged with the display pole body portion.And elasticity deflection unit also can be that spring is with exterior part.
In addition, in the clock and watch of band of the present invention date and am/pm Presentation Function, typically, described display unit is made of described display pole and the demonstration pin that is installed on this display pole.
In this case, show that pin can be formed by the parts that are suitable for showing, display pole can be made of the parts of the action that is suitable for carrying out display pole.But, as required, also can form one at the display part of answering with the main part of display pole with demonstration.In addition, the display pole that constitutes display unit is fixed mutually with the demonstration pin, replaces therewith, and the two also can utilize the mechanism that can move relatively to link.
In the clock and watch of band of the present invention date and am/pm Presentation Function, typically, the clock and watch of this band date and am/pm Presentation Function have date wheel and have the dial plate of the date window on the date that shows this date wheel, and constitute when arbor pulled into described pull-out location, the display unit of the form of cam follower is connected to and shows that using cam face or afternoon to show uses the cam face morning, thereby the part of this display unit appears in the date window.
In this case, the date window that is used to show date can be used in the demonstration of am/pm.At this, only when pulleding into predetermined described pull-out location, arbor carries out the demonstration of am/pm, and therefore, different with the situation of the demonstration of carrying out am/pm all the time, kept traditional clock and watch performances (pin and calendar etc.), so the inharmonious sense that am/pm shows is little.And, with different with the situation of 24 hour wheels self demonstration am/pm, the Visual Confirmation height.
But, replace in the date window on date of the wheel that shows date, carrying out the demonstration of am/pm, other other viewing areas of window and so on that show am/pm also can be set, and in this viewing area, carry out the demonstration of am/pm.In addition, other that also can make day star-wheel and so on have wheel that the date shows pin with respect to being presented at dial plate or outer ring (bezel) thus the date rotation show date.
In the clock and watch of band of the present invention date and am/pm Presentation Function, typically, described pull-out location is the pull-out location of pointer calibration usefulness.
In this case, stopping or will carry out pointer calibration and hold table hat (り ゅ ぅ ず) arbor is pulled out to the pointer calibration with the pull-out location (typically the bigger clock and watch of time deviation, table hat second gear is arbor second gear) time, the time that can distinguish this clock and watch demonstration is the time in the morning or the time in afternoon, therefore can effectively and not have unnecessary pointer calibration actions of operatively carrying out next step according to the information of this am/pm.
But, as required, also can be, arbor is being pulled out to typical second gear (pointer calibrating position) before, for example only is being pulled out to the demonstration (as long as when arbor pulled into second gear (pointer calibrating position), still carrying out the demonstration of am/pm) that first gear (being generally the date calibration position) just carries out am/pm.

Shown in (a) figure of Fig. 1, imagination clock and watch 1 stop at the state of " 10: 8 " of pointing to 3.Only observe this state of clock and watch 1, can't discern these clock and watch 1 is to point to 3 days " ' morning ' 10: 8 " or point to " ' afternoon ' 10: 8 ".
At this, the current time that the imagination for example will be aimed at is " ' afternoon ' certain minute " at 7 o'clock, and clock and watch 1 is calibrated to the situation of " ' afternoon ' certain minute " at 7 o'clock.
Because not knowing the pin of clock and watch is to point to " ' morning ' 10: 8 " or point to " ' afternoon ' 10: 8 ", therefore, in the past, after arbor is pulled out to second gear, dial pin and confirm that the date of date wheel shows the pin position of changing around the clockwise direction of clock and watch, with this pin position is benchmark, dials tens hours amount of pin to reach the expression state (pin position) of " ' afternoon ' certain minute " at 7 o'clock.That is, aiming at constantly (pin position) before, must to the pin of clock and watch pointed be the moment or moment in afternoon in the morning to confirm promptly to check, expend time in and bother.
Relative therewith, in clock and watch 1, carry out the pointer calibration in the following manner with am/pm indication mechanism 3.
At first, arbor 17 is pulled out to the second gear P2 to the A1 direction.
When arbor 17 is set in the second gear P2, show at clock and watch under the situation in " ' morning ' 10: 8 ", shown in (b) figure of Fig. 1, the terminal part of the main body 72 of the demonstration pin 6 of am/pm indication mechanism 3 is projected in the frame of date window 15, can see showing pin 6 in date window 15.
In more detail, stop at clock and watch 1 under the situation in 10: 8 morning, therefore 24 hour wheels 40 that rotated a circle in 24 hours stop at the position of rotation of correspondence, as Fig. 4 (a) schemes or (b) shown in the figure, cam 42 stopped at and corresponding position of rotation in 10: 8 morning in 24 o'clock.
Shown in (a) figure of Fig. 1, when arbor 17 is positioned at pointer and normally walks under the situation of position P0, shown in (a) figure of Fig. 4, thereby the terminal part 17a of arbor 17 overcome spring portion 60 the D1 direction angular force and be stuck 50 the rotations of jut 57 restriction (forbidding) display pole main parts to what the A2 direction was pushed display pole main part 50 to the D1 direction, therefore display pole main part 50 stops at non-operating position R0, shows that pin 6 stops at non-display position Q0.
When in order to dial pin action with arbor 17 when the A1 direction is pulled out to the second gear P2, shown in (b) figure of Fig. 4, the terminal part 17a of arbor 17 is disengaged the restriction that is stuck jut 57 of display pole main part 50, therefore display pole main part 50 rotates displacement to the D1 direction under the effect of spring portion 60, be resisted against the circular-arc cam surface 43 of path of 24 o'clock cams 42 up to engaging protrusion portion 55 as the cam follower, this moment, the display pole main part 50 arrived display action position R1, showed that pin 6 is also to the swing of D1 direction and move to display position Q1 in the scope of date window 15.Therefore, can see demonstration pin 6 (state of (b) figure of Fig. 1) via date window 15.Promptly, in clock and watch 1, be under the situation in the moment in the morning, in the moment of pin 11,12 indications only by arbor 17 being set in the second gear P2, the demonstration pin 6 of am/pm indication mechanism 3 is appeared in the scope of date window 15, and the moment of informing clock and watch 1 indication is the moment in the morning.Therefore,, need not to carry out other operations of trouble, therefore can promptly carry out the pointer calibration for " what clock and watch were represented is the moment or moment in afternoon in the morning to confirm promptly to check " with different in the past.
On the other hand, what represent at clock and watch is under the situation in " ' afternoon ' 10: 8 ", shown in (c) figure of Fig. 1, even arbor 17 is set in the second gear P2, the demonstration pin 6 of am/pm indication mechanism 3 also can not be projected in the frame of date window 15, shows that pin 6 can not appear in the date window 15.
In more detail, stop at clock and watch 1 under the situation in 10: 8 afternoon, 24 hour wheels 40 that rotated a circle in 24 hours stop at the position of rotation of correspondence, therefore as Fig. 4 (c) figure with (d) shown in the figure, cam 42 stopped at and corresponding position of rotation in 10: 8 afternoon in 24 o'clock.
Shown in (a) figure of Fig. 1, when arbor 17 is positioned at pointer and normally walks under the situation of position P0, shown in (c) figure of Fig. 4, thereby the terminal part 17a of arbor 17 overcome spring portion 60 the D1 direction angular force and be stuck 50 the rotations of jut 57 restriction (forbidding) display pole main parts to what the A2 direction was pushed display pole main part 50 to the D1 direction, therefore display pole main part 50 stops at non-operating position R0, shows that pin 6 stops at non-display position Q0.Display pole 4 among relation between display pole 4 among (c) figure of Fig. 4 and the arbor 17 and (a) figure of Fig. 4 is identical with the relation between the arbor 17.At this, typically, between the circular-arc cam surface 44 in big footpath, there is the gap as the engaging protrusion portion 55 of cam follower and 24 o'clock cams 42.Yet, if desired, in fact also can be in contact with one another.But, even in this case, under the state of Fig. 4 (c) figure, in fact still kept the restriction (forbidding) that is stuck that jut 57 realizes that terminal part 17a by arbor 17 is connected to display pole main part 50 to the D1 direction rotation of display pole main part 50.
When in order to dial pin action with arbor 17 when the A1 direction is pulled out to the second gear P2, though shown in (d) figure of Fig. 4, the terminal part 17a of arbor 17 is disengaged the restriction that is stuck jut 57 of display pole main part 50, but when display pole main part 50 begins to D1 direction rotation displacement along with the releasing of this restriction, be connected to the circular-arc cam surface 44 in big footpath of 24 o'clock cams 42 very soon as the engaging protrusion portion 55 of cam follower, therefore only to the small amount of D1 direction rotation, the rotation of display pole main part 50 is under an embargo and stops at non-display action position R2 display pole main part 50 once more then.And, show that pin 6 also only to the small amount of D1 direction swing, in fact stops at the extraneous non-display position Q0 of date window 15.Therefore, in date window 15, can't see demonstration pin 6 (state of (c) figure of Fig. 1).
Promptly, in clock and watch 1, be under the situation in the moment in afternoon, in the moment of pin 11,12 indications even arbor 17 is set in the second gear P2, the demonstration pin 6 of am/pm indication mechanism 3 does not appear in the scope of date window 15 yet, therefore informs that the moment of clock and watch 1 indication is the moment in afternoon.Therefore,, need not to carry out other operations of trouble, therefore can promptly carry out the pointer calibration for " what clock and watch were represented is the moment or moment in afternoon in the morning to confirm promptly to check " with different in the past.
In aforesaid clock and watch 1, under the situation of the state that is in the morning at clock and watch 1, pulled into the second gear P2 and show that pin 6 appears in the date window 15 this point along with arbor 17, the outward appearance of clock and watch 1 is identical with existing common clock and watch, from keeping traditional clock and watch performance this point, also can guarantee feeling of high class.
In addition, in above narration, it is the morning during with circular-arc (the circular-arc cam surface of path) 43 butts of path only to the engaging protrusion portion 55 of display pole main part 50, the example that during with circular-arc of big footpath (the circular-arc cam surface in big footpath) 44 butts is afternoon is illustrated, but, replacing in this, is afternoon when also the engaging protrusion portion 55 that 24 o'clock cams 42 can be positioned in display pole main part 50 with respect to 24 o'clock gears 41 is with circular-arc (the circular-arc cam surface of path) 43 butts of path, during with circular-arc of big footpath (the circular-arc cam surface in big footpath) 44 butts is the morning.
And, for example also can be, form the diameter of circular-arc (the circular-arc cam surface in big footpath) 44 of circular-arc of path (the circular-arc cam surface of path) 43 and big footpath slightly littler than illustrated embodiment, make to show in the last period of the day from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m that pin 6 relied on the position of 4 o'clock sides slightly when appearing at the ratio 3 of date window 15, and show that pin 6 relies on the position of 2 o'clock sides slightly when appearing at the ratio 3 of date window 15 in the afternoon the time.In this case, no matter be under the situation in the morning or under the situation in the afternoon, can both recognize the expression of the difference of am/pm by show pin 6 via date window 15 Visual Confirmations, and can be 4 o'clock sides of deflection or be partial to 2 o'clock sides and discern the morning or afternoon by showing pin 6.
And then, as required, for example also can form, moving arbor 17 to second gear (pointer calibrating position) before from zero-span (position when pointer is normally walked), only when arbor 17 being moved to first gear (position of typical calendar (date) calibration), making to show that pin 6 appears in the date window 15 at least partly.
In above narration, be illustrated around the example that rotary middle spindle 54 rotates to D1, D2 direction with display pole 4, still, replace making display pole 4 to rotate, also can make display pole 4 swings or back and forth translation.
Further, in above narration, to show that pin 6 and display pole 4 are fixed to the example that can not move mutually and are illustrated, still, also can make show pin 6 according to the displacement of display pole 4 with respect to display pole 4 relative displacements.
