Definitions
- the present invention relates to an analog timepiece, in particular an analog watch, which can display at least one additional piece of information other than an indication of the time.
- the present invention relates more particularly to an analog timepiece which can display at least one additional item of information other than an indication of the hour using the hands, and in particular using the hour and minute hands.
- French patent 2,404,250 describes a timepiece comprising an hour hand, a minute hand and external control means for making the needles display a certain number of information other than indications of hours.
- a control circuit inside the watch When the user of such a watch triggers the display of information other than an indication of hours using external control means, a control circuit inside the watch generates driving pulses. which produce the displacement of one of the hands independently of the other, to bring this needle to a position where it displays this information. While this display of an additional function lasts, the second hand may, depending on the case, either remain in the position it was in before the display of this information other than an indication of hours, or move to display second information of the same type.
- Timepieces using a display mode such as that described above have drawbacks. Indeed, the presence of at least two hands occupying different positions on the dial, may cause reading errors.
- An object of the present invention is therefore to remedy these drawbacks of the prior art by providing an analog timepiece which can display the time in a conventional manner, in particular using two hands and which can also display other information. that an indication of time using these hands in a way which lends itself to an easy and immediate reading, and which avoids the risks of confusion which have just been described.
- the subject of the present invention is an analog timepiece comprising at least one hour hand and one minute hand actuated respectively by a first and by a second motor, control means that can be actuated manually, and an electronic circuit comprising a time base, a circuit for counting at least hourly and minute time information, and electronic management means for generating control signals for controlling the movement of the hands, said electronic management means comprising means for accessing digital values representative of information other than indications of hours, and means for selecting and comparing values delivered, on the one hand, by said circuit counting, and on the other hand, by said access means, said selection means being governed by said control means; the timepiece being characterized in that the result of said comparison is used by the electronic management means to cause the two hands to overlap and occupy together the same angular position which is a function of said numerical value and therefore representative of said information other than an indication of hours.
- Another advantage of the present invention is that the display of non-hourly information is not likely to be confused with an indication of hours.
- FIG. 1 there is shown in Figure 1, in the form of a block diagram, an alarm watch constituting an embodiment of the present invention.
- This alarm watch includes in series a quartz oscillator 2, a division chain 4 delivering a signal at 1 Hz, a second hand position counter 6 and a minute hand position counter 8. It further includes a divider by twelve referenced 10, receiving the signal from the position counter of the second hand 6, and a position counter of the hour hand 12, the input of which is connected to the output of the divider 10.
- the counters 6, 8 and 12 are counters by sixty, the operating mode of which is described schematically in FIG. 3.
- pulses to be counted are supplied to the counter (arrow on the far left in the drawing). These successive pulses are counted by a binary register of at least six bits, which they increment. The status of this register can be read at any time (down arrow on the drawing). At each increment, the register is tested to see if the number it contains is equal to sixty. If this is the case, a pulse is emitted by the test circuit and this pulse causes the reset of the register.
- the test circuit therefore constitutes a divider par sixty whose signal can be sent to another counter (right arrow on the drawing).
- the counters 8 and 12 define, in normal mode, the position of the minute and hour hands relative to the turn of the dial of the timepiece. Since the alarm watch described here does not include a second hand, the second hand position counter only serves to generate a signal to increment the other counters 8, 12.
- the timepiece is furthermore provided with two motors 18 and 20 controlled respectively by power circuits 14, 16 for driving the minute hand and the hour hand respectively (FIG. 2).
- the circuits 14, 16 receive, in normal mode, the pulses applied respectively to the inputs of the position indicators of the minute hand 8 and hours 12.
- Patent EP-0 393 606 in particular describes a timepiece movement comprising two motors capable of independently driving the minute hand and the hour hand.
- the watch described here can also display information other than time indications.
- the elements of FIG. 1 which will now be described, make it possible on the one hand to carry out the display of the additional information and on the other hand to return the hands to the position for displaying the exact time when it proves necessary .
- the timepiece includes electronic management means 22 to allow the alarm clock to fulfill various display functions and an alarm function.
- These electronic management means 22 include inputs MN and H to receive the contents of the minute counters 8 and hours 12, two activation inputs AN, EN and two inputs D+, D ⁇ for the movement data of the hands forward and backward respectively.
- Patent EP-0 175 961 in particular describes a control rod associated with an interpretation circuit which can easily be adapted to be used with the timepiece described here.
- the electronic management means 22 also include two outputs Mmn and Mh for delivering pulses to the motors 18 and 20, and a control output C for managing the state of two switches 26, 28 arranged at the input of the power circuits 14 , 16 and arranged to transmit to them, either the pulses applied to the inputs of the position indicators of the minute hand 8 and hours 12 when the switches are in a first position referenced a , or the pulses delivered by the electronic means of management 22 when the switches are in a second position referenced b .
- the electronic management means can advantageously be produced in the form of an integrated circuit comprising a programmed microcontroller. Those skilled in the art will know, from the indications provided here, to carry out the programming of the microcontroller, so as to make it execute the functions described.
- the electronic management means are inactive and the motors 18, 20 receive the pulses applied to the inputs of the position meters of the minute and hour hands 8, 12.
- the table or flowchart in Figure 2 has seven drawings or steps (referenced from A to G) each representing one of the different display functions that can be fulfilled by the hands of the watch.
- the arrows which connect the various stages A, ..., G and the few indications which accompany them make it possible to understand how one actuates the control rod to select one of the various display functions.
- step A the time correction function is activated by pulling the rod.
- the displacement towards the outside of the rod causes the transmission by the interpretation circuit 24 (FIG. 1) of a signal towards the input EN of the electronic management means 22.
- the reception of this signal by the electronic means of management 22 causes switches 26, 28 to pass into state b .
- the electronic management means 22 emit a high signal on the reset line of the second position counter 6 to keep it at zero so that it no longer provides the signal for incrementing the hand position counters 8 minutes and 12 hours.
- the interpretation circuit 24 then sends pulses corresponding to the different rotational movements printed on the rod by the user towards the inputs D+, D ⁇ of the electronic management means 22 which in turn emit control pulses to increment or decrement the position counters of the minute hands 8 and hours 12 and to simultaneously control the motors 18, 20 to move the hands.
- the interpretation circuit 24 supplies a deactivation signal to the electronic management means 22 which in turn supply a signal by their output C for switch switches 26, 28 to state a . Simultaneously the signal on the reset line returns to zero and the position counter of the second hand 6 starts again.
- the timepiece described here is designed to perform an alarm function. To this end, it includes two counters 27, 29 (FIG. 1) for memorizing respectively the position of the minute hand and that of the hour hand corresponding to the alarm bell time, and a synthesizer circuit acoustic signal 30, which is connected to the electronic management means 22.
- each manipulation of the control rod is accompanied by a movement of the hands on the dial to inform the user as to the effect of the manipulation he has just performed. It is obviously important that these indications of the effect of an order are easily understood by the user and without ambiguity. It is in particular important that the display of information other than a time indication cannot be confused with a time indication.
- the display of information other than time indications by means of the two hands in superimposed positions is particularly advantageous. Indeed, on the one hand this display mode is particularly readable, and on the other hand, it cannot be confused with an indication of time.
- the electronic management means 22 When the watch is in the normal time display mode A (FIG. 2), and the interpretation circuit 24 (FIG. 1) transmits towards the input AN of the electronic management means 22 a signal activation corresponding to a pressure exerted on the rod, the electronic management means 22 emit a signal on their output C to place the switches 26 and 28 in state b (FIG. 1), that is to say block the pulses corresponding to counters 8 and 12, and simultaneously, read the contents of counters 8 and 12 to know the position of the minute and hour hands. They then emit the number of pulses required on the outputs Mmn and Mh to cause the hands to overlap in the position corresponding to the alarm indication on the dial as shown in step C (this does not affect the operation of the counters 6, 8 and 12).
- the electronic management means cause the needles to be superimposed above the "alarm" indication in emitting a number of pulses equal to the number of pulses that would be necessary to make the contents of counters 8 and 12 both equal to 45.
- the electronic management means 22 Once the electronic management means 22 have brought the two needles into the position which indicates entry into the alarm mode, they remain in a standby mode until they have determined, by counting the 1 Hz pulses from the division chain 4, that two seconds had passed. If these two seconds have passed without the control rod having been actuated, the electronic management means will cause the watch to display the state of activation of the alarm, step D (FIG. 2).
- An alarm clock timepiece always includes means for activating and deactivating the acoustic alarm signal.
- the alarm of a timepiece-alarm clock When we say that the alarm of a timepiece-alarm clock is activated, it means that the latter will emit an acoustic signal as soon as the time displayed by the hands in normal time display mode coincides with the programmed alarm time. If, on the contrary, the alarm signal is deactivated, no acoustic signal will be emitted even if the time displayed by the hands coincides with the programmed alarm time.
- the electronic management means 22 which are put by the user either in a state in which the alarm is activated, or in a state in which it is deactivated.
- the electronic management means 22 emit the number of pulses required on the outputs Mmn and Mh to cause the needles to move together either to the "ON" position or to the "OFF" position corresponding respectively to 8h and 10h on the dial, depending on whether the alarm is activated or deactivated.
- the position taken by the two hands superimposed on the dial gives the user perfectly clear information on the status of the alarm of the watch, moreover this information cannot be confused with an indication of time either. .
- step D the user can change the alarm state by simply exerting a pressure on the rod.
- the interpretation circuit 24 transmits an impulse to the electronic management means 22 indicating to them that pressure has been exerted on the rod, these emit the number of impulses necessary to cause the two needles to move simultaneously from the "ON" position to the "OFF” position or vice versa as appropriate.
- step F When from the moment when the hands are immobilized either on “ON” or on “OFF” depending on whether the alarm is activated or deactivated, no pressure was exerted on the rod for a period of three seconds the electronic management means 22 control the movement of the hands to cause the hands to fulfill the function of displaying the preprogrammed alarm time, step F (FIG. 2).
- the respective positions of the minute hand and the hour hand when these indicate the alarm time are stored in the counters 27, 29 alarm time.
- the electronic management means 22 will read the content of the counters 27, 29 and bring the hands to the positions corresponding to the content of these counters, by providing each of the motors with an equal number of pulses. the difference between the state of the corresponding alarm hour counter, and the value 40 or 50 depending on whether the hands were previously in the "ON" position or in the "OFF" position.
- the user has a period of five seconds during which he can pull the rod to correct the alarm time step G. Correction of the alarm time similar to the normal time correction described above.
- the interpretation circuit 24 sends to the electronic management means 22 a signal which has two functions, its first function is to activate the alarm, so that an acoustic signal is emitted as soon as the position counters hour and minute hands will coincide with the alarm hour counters.
- the second function of the signal is to cause the electronic management means 22 to bring the hands into the normal time display mode, step A, the electronic management means 22 calculate the number of pulses necessary to perform this operation by comparing the content of the hand position counters 8, 12 with the alarm hour counters 27, 29.
- an acoustic signal is emitted, as we have already said, as soon as the content of the position counters of the hands 8, 12 correspond to the content of the alarm hour counters 27, 29.
- the user can then interrupt the emission of the acoustic alarm signal by exerting a pressure on the rod.
- the pressure exerted on the rod causes the emission by the interpretation circuit 24 in the direction of the electronic management means 22 of a signal to on the one hand interrupt the acoustic signal, and on the other hand deactivate the alarm which therefore , in the absence of a new manipulation by the user, will not emit any acoustic signal during the next coincidence between the content of the hand position counters 8, 12 and the alarm hour counters 27, 29 twelve hours later.
- the alarm watch which has just been described constitutes, as we have already said, only one particular embodiment of the present invention which we have given here by way of example.
- the invention as defined by claim 1 relates to all analog timepieces which can display information other than a time indication using the hands. In order for information other than a time indication to be displayed in the manner which characterizes the present invention, it is simply necessary that, on the one hand, this information can be translated in the form of a numerical value, and on the other hand that the electronic management means can have access to this digital value.
- FIG. 4 represents in the form of a block diagram a watch comprising an hour hand and a minute hand and which can indicate either the hour in a conventional manner or the date in the manner which characterizes the present invention.
- This watch includes a quartz oscillator 2 and a division and counting chain similar to that which has been described above in relation to FIG. 1.
- the watch shown in FIG. 4 also includes a divider. by two referenced 32 receiving the signal from the hour hand position counter, and a date position counter 34 whose input is connected to the output of the divider 32.
- the date position counter 34 and similar to the counter 6, 8 and 12 and its operating mode therefore also corresponds to that described by the diagram in FIG. 3.
- the interpretation circuit 24 transmits towards the input AN of the electronic management means 22 a signal d 'activation.
- This signal causes the means 22 to send a signal to their output C to place switches 26 and 28 in state b , that is to say block the pulses corresponding to counters 8 and 12.
- the electronic management means 22 read the content of the minute hand position counter 8 and that of the hour hand position counter 12 to compare it with the content of the date position counter 34 for determine the number of steps to be taken by each of the motors to cause the two hands to be superimposed on the dial opposite the number corresponding to the day of the month, that is to say the calendar, in accordance with what is shown in Figure 5 (this does not affect the operation of counters 6, 8, 12, 34).
- the date position counter 34 works similarly to the other position counters 6, 8 and 12.
- the date position counter is therefore in particular a counter by sixty, which must be reset manually at the end of each 28, 29, 30 or 31 day month.
- the interpretation circuit 24 When the watch is in the date display mode and the user exerts traction on the stem, the interpretation circuit 24 emits a signal towards the input EN of the electronic management means 22 to pass them through the update mode. The interpretation circuit 24 then transmits to the inputs D+ and D ⁇ of the means 22 signals corresponding to the different rotational movements printed on the rod by the user. These signals cause the date position counter 34 to increment or de-increment and simultaneously move the two hands to superimposed positions forwards or backwards. When at the end of the updating operation the user pushes the rod back, the interpretation circuit 24 emits a signal in the direction of the electronic management means 22. The means 22 will then first read the content counters 8 and 12 to bring the hands to the position corresponding to the time that it is, then place switches 26 and 28 in state a .
