Description

Head mounted timer
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of time set of when motion the time is particularly swum, wearing on the head.
Background technology
No matter be professional athlete or amateur, whether reached required standard, generally all need to write down back and forth used time and run duration of a week in order to weigh them.
Amateur or sports fan generally like timing, because there is not the special messenger that its performance is independently assessed usually.The sportsman uses back and forth all used time or run duration to write down individual results, and people use sports watch to finish this function usually.
But the requirement of professional athlete many times is different therewith, need carry out speed training according to predetermined speed usually, and therefore having the wrist-watch of display screen or have the wrist-watch of section sliced time can be more useful.
The wrist-watch that use has button to operate writing time and inconvenience, and slightly wrong meeting causes loss of data; Can have a strong impact on athletic notice like this.Especially for the swimmer, pressing another wrist-watch button on hand with a hand can influence strokes inevitably, thereby influences swimming rate.
Once the someone advised providing a kind of pressure to touch plate to the swimmer, was suspended on one of swimming pool and brought in the demonstration time.The panel of this precision seems that some is heavy and broken easily, and the sportsman can influence it and wave the arm action when looking up display screen.
Goal of the invention
Therefore, need a kind ofly can overcome above timer of asking a question.
The invention provides a kind of time set that is suitable for being installed on sportsman's head, this device has an audio output, is used for the ear transmitting audio signal to the people.
The best setting of this time set is to be installed in the headband, and has an audio frequency end to be connected with earplug.Preferably device is installed to the back of headband, and all has audio frequency to be connected with two ears.
This device is highly suitable for the swimmer, and most of swimmer wears a headband as safety goggles or the like, and much the people wears the plain weave earplug, in case there is water to enter ear.
This device can provide sound signal to the user in any suitable manner by the sequencing setting.
For example, this device can be installed a toucher, so that match is picked up counting, explains by sound then and presses toucher motion institute elapsed time afterwards.Toucher preferably has one bigger elastic button or the similar device that makes things convenient for the user to operate to be arranged.For example the swimmer can be installed in device a position of being convenient to touch when arm action streaks.Wearing is its most important character, and manually shake-up can farthest reduce the influence to player motion.
Another kind of example is that sequencing is provided with time set, and it is sounded with default interval.This set is extremely important for the sportsman who makes great efforts to keep stable training time table, for example with swimming at the uniform velocity or run.Its audio frequency output also can comprise a kind of audio alarming signal, the path length of process in the prompting certain time interval, and the sportsman can quicken or slow down as required like this.In addition, this device sends the sound of counting reciprocal near the final stage of a period of time the time.
This time set can also have some background sounds, for example broadcasting or the music of record in advance, thus the sportsman is recreated in training process.Interrupt background sound when needed, then send timing sound.This design can make the sportsman overcome unhappiness in the training process that does not almost have environmental stimuli for a long time, and for example the swimmer is in long line training.
According to following description of preferred embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, other functions of the present invention are clearly.

Embodiment
Fig. 1 has shown the number of people (10) diagram that wears safety goggles (11), and safety goggles supports with an elasticity headband (12).Headband has two support sections (13,14), to guarantee normotopia and cosily to install along ear (15).
The back of headband accompanies a time set (16), and the output lead at its two ends (17,18) is connected respectively in the headphone (19) and (demonstrates one).
Fig. 2 has shown typical time set (16), comprises a relatively large button of a main body (21) and outside surface thereof (22).Clip (23) extends along the inside surface of main body (21), and its fulcrum is near the coboundary (as shown in the figure) of transverse axis (24).The lower end of clip constitutes a spring arm (25), and the spanner on the spring arm is used for stablizing main body.
By retracting spring arm (25), clip is opened along the direction of arrow (27), thereby makes headband (12) enter rectangular area to a certain extent (26) between clip and the main body.By these settings, time set can be attached on the headband or from headband safely and take off.
In Fig. 2, a light-emitting diode display (30) can show for example wireless open mode equally, the cardinal extremity (34) of general utility functions button (31,32,33) and earphone wire.Other function buttons have ' preservation storer ', ' emptying timer ' and ' restarting '.
Back in main body can also provide program button and/or function button, can prevent from during use to be touched unintentionally.Thereby the user can carry out the program setting to device as required, and it is attached on the headband, starts timer by pressing bigger button (22).Can pick up counting/write down the time afterwards by continuous actuation button (22).
As shown in Figure 3, the best setting of this device comprises a storer and the LCD display (35) that is positioned at the main body back side.Function button (36,37) has responsive shake-up usually, can call and deposit all contents and show elapsed time.Also can comprise traditional instrument that downloads to computer.In Fig. 3, clip (23) is the relieving state, and two identical buttons (32,33) are provided.
The LCD display (reading is ' 83 ') that has shown a simplification in the diagram; But be appreciated that also to be more complicated display, comprise some icons, can be according to the functional setting in the LCD wrist-watch.
Fig. 4 has shown the time set outside surface that has the button (22) that highlights, and in order to prevent its landing, can adorn reinforcement (28) on button.
Fig. 5 is the push-botton operation schematic diagram of mechanism of larger proportion.Button (22) is installed on the main body in any suitable manner, carries out relative motion in the direction of arrow (40) with respect to printed circuit board (PCB) (41).Contact element is directly touched by button (22), according to the relative position of contact element (43), regulates rebound mechanism (42) connection or disconnecting circuit connection.Terminal (44) is connected to PCB on other elements of device.
Install inner (not shown) for using battery, LCD light source always, depositing all devices and integrated circuit.Have suitable waterproof measure in this device, and an inlet port that is used to change battery is arranged.Can press from both sides an optionally decoration panel 38 in the outside of device, it is carried out the hommization setting.
