Description

Funkarmbanduhren sind häufig mit einer Datumanzeige ausgestattet. Die bekannten Lö­ sungen erfordern jedoch einen erhöhten elektronischen und mechanischen Aufwand. Be­ kannt sind Datumanzeigen mittels Flüssigkristalldisplay oder auf elektro-mechanischem Weg durch Anwendung eines separaten Schrittmotorgetriebes und einer üblichen Datum­ scheibe. Die anspruchsgemäße Lösung benutzt die Tatsache, daß eine Funkuhrelektronik mit einem Mikroprozessor in der Lage ist, den Sekundenzeiger einer analog zeitanzeigen­ den Uhr exakt sekundengenau zu steuern und außerdem einen schnellen schrittsynchronen Vorlauf der Uhr und einen zeitweiligen Stop des Antriebs zu realisieren.Radio wristwatches are often equipped with a date display. The well-known Lö However, solutions require increased electronic and mechanical effort. Be Date displays are known by means of liquid crystal displays or on electro-mechanical ones Way through application of a separate stepper motor gear and a usual date disc. The sophisticated solution uses the fact that radio clock electronics with a microprocessor is able to display the second hand of an analog time to control the clock exactly to the second and also a fast step-synchronous To advance the clock and to temporarily stop the drive.

Somit kann der Sekundenzeiger vorübergehend andere Anzeigeinhalte durch Stellungs­ varianten und Stopphasen darbieten und danach wieder in den Normalbetrieb der Anzeige der laufenden Sekunde zurückkehren.Thus, the second hand can temporarily change the display content by position present variants and stop phases and then return to normal operation of the display return the current second.

Claims (2)

1. Funkarmbanduhr mit Datumanzeige mit den Baugruppen Funkempfänger (1), Langwellen­ antenne (2), Mikroprozessor (3), Uhrwerk (4) mit Schrittmotorantrieb (5), Zifferblatt (6) und Zeiger, wobei der mit einer elektrischen Schalteinheit (7) versehene Mikroprozessor (3) und der Funkempfänger (1) in üblicher Art die Uhrzeit und das Datum aus dem empfan­ genen Funkprotokoll generiert und der Schrittmotor (5) über ein Rädergetriebe (4) den Se­ kundenzeiger (8), gegebenenfalls auch den Minutenzeiger und den Stundenzeiger antreibt und somit die analoge Uhrzeitanzeige realisiert, und wobei nach Betätigung der elek­ trischen Schalteinheit (7) der Mikroprozessor (3) den Schrittmotor (5), entgegen der nor­ malerweise im Sekundentakt erfolgenden Fortschaltung, veranlaßt, durch zum Beispiel schnelleres Fortschalten eine Position bezüglich des Zifferblattes (6) einzunehmen, so dass der Sekundenzeiger zusammen mit einer entsprechend auf dem Zifferblatt vorhan­ denen Skala (9) eine weitere Information anzeigt, den Sekundenzeiger in dieser Stellung zeitweilig stoppt und danach wieder in den Normalbetrieb der Anzeige der laufenden Se­ kunde zurückkehrt.1. Radio wristwatch with date display with the modules radio receiver ( 1 ), long-wave antenna ( 2 ), microprocessor ( 3 ), clockwork ( 4 ) with stepper motor drive ( 5 ), dial ( 6 ) and pointer, the one with an electrical switching unit ( 7 ) provided microprocessor ( 3 ) and the radio receiver ( 1 ) generates the time and date from the received radio protocol in the usual way and the stepper motor ( 5 ) via a gear train ( 4 ) the second hand ( 8 ), possibly also the minute hand and the Hour hand drives and thus realizes the analog time display, and after actuation of the elec trical switching unit ( 7 ) the microprocessor ( 3 ) causes the stepper motor ( 5 ), contrary to the normal incremental switching, for example by advancing faster a position with respect of the dial ( 6 ), so that the second hand together with a correspondingly existing Sk ala ( 9 ) displays further information, temporarily stops the second hand in this position and then returns to normal operation to display the current second. 2. Funkarmbanduhr mit Datumanzeige nach Anspruch 1, dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß als weitere Informationen, zum Beispiel das Datum, der Wochentag, die Kalenderwoche, weitere Zeitzonen oder in Verbindung mit geeigneten Sensoren (10), zum Beispiel die Temperatur, die Luftfeuchtigkeit, der Luftdruck, Schadstoffbelastung der Umwelt oder medizinische Meßwerte, angezeigt werden.2. Radio wristwatch with date display according to claim 1, characterized in that as further information, for example the date, the day of the week, the calendar week, other time zones or in conjunction with suitable sensors ( 10 ), for example the temperature, the humidity, the air pressure , Pollution of the environment or medical measurements.
