Definitions

  • the invention relates to a watch with at least one display unit for the actual time, at least one input unit for at least one adjustable, possibly date-related target time, which can be stored in a memory and when reached, a process can be triggered, and at least one Display unit for the target time (s).
  • One common target time setting is based on approaching the target in small increments by briefly depressing buttons one step at a time, then holding the button down, which expires numbers to drive to another destination. In this way, a month, a specific date, an hour and a minute can be targeted.
  • the difficulty lies in the fact that it is completely unnatural to race towards the goal in minute steps first and then at ever faster, standardized, mostly spectacular pace. The problem is known. You often shoot over the target. You have to start over. Or you stop too early for fear and have to try again to hit the target with further operations.
  • a second setting method which among other things knows the "backward movement of time" as is the case with most alarm clocks, can be found on many video devices. If you want to program a program today, on October 7th at 1:00 p.m., which starts tomorrow morning at 10:30 a.m., you can sequentially address the next few days with these devices at the push of a button. As a result, you jump into the right day at the wrong time, so to speak. First you have to orientate yourself and Then, in this simple example, you start walking backwards from 1:00 p.m. to the future goal of 10:30 a.m. The first operation reaches 10:00 a.m., the minute operation 10:30 a.m. But if our starting position (1:00 p.m.) is a bit more complicated, e.g. at 8:45 p.m., the problem is much more difficult.
  • VCR-Plus device used millions of times in the USA, our VPS system in its current version, barcode programming or other systems are very good aids in the long term. Since only a few programs from the countless programs can be displayed with these tools, only mass programs and a uniform culture are promoted, but not the free choice of the individual is supported. In a short time, television programs from all over the world will be available for everyone and new, generally understandable selection, control and programming methods must also be in the interests of diverse cultures and individual wishes are developed. An approach to this is also the subject of this invention.
  • a third way of programming target times is via numeric or alphanumeric keyboards, such as palmtops, notebooks, laptops, computers in general, or keyboards on devices, machines, etc.
  • numeric or alphanumeric keyboards such as palmtops, notebooks, laptops, computers in general, or keyboards on devices, machines, etc.
  • Date orientation is usually a burden because we think in seasons, months, weeks, especially the days of the week, times of day, hours and so on in which we want to work. Even with date-oriented operations such as "due invoices", the date just fades into the background shortly before the invoice expires because it has to be paid the day after tomorrow or "tomorrow” (that's the quality!).
  • the invention has for its object to provide a device according to the preamble 1, which, based on the natural, analog, dynamic perception of time, allows multiple near and distant event times easily, quickly and precisely as a single target time or a variety of repetition target times with a few input means to save, which above all also across systems, ie can be used uniformly for small and large clocks, industrial process control, computer programs, for work, on the go and at home, and can be flexibly, modularly and adapted to individual needs for young and old, and above all, just as easily, according to the same principle of the inventor, allows additional information describing the finish times, provides a wide range of options for selecting and displaying the entered information and programs, yet provides easy access, as well as announcing the occurrence of certain events in a wide range of cultivated, individually modifiable types and integrating them into as many existing systems as possible.
  • a watch is provided with at least one display unit for the actual time, at least one input unit for at least one adjustable, possibly with date Target time, which can be stored in a memory and a process can be triggered when it is reached, and at least one display unit for the target time (s), characterized in that the input unit has at least three main input means, each of which main input means based on the actual time or the target time set immediately beforehand with this or another main input means allows a point in time in the future to be started that is an integer multiple or an integral fraction of an hour and / or a named natural one , time perception based on culture and tradition is the appropriate beginning of a target period.
  • a clock which provides input means for storing detailed factual or personal activities with the target times, and which has further input means for preprogramming the approach and arrival of target times so that they by means of appropriate means for the user in accordance with the respective purpose in an adequate manner by optical, acoustic or mechanical stimuli, and that additional input means are provided which can also be used modularly for industrial or private process control.
  • the watch according to the invention and also all the other advantageous developments mentioned are based on the basic idea of modularly designed and modifiable target jump systems.
  • the target jump system for entering the target time is based on the beginning of periods that correspond to the perception of time that has arisen from culture and tradition.
  • group i (daily target times), the input means for weeks (W) and for the beginning of the day (D) are added, in the second group (target weekdays) the start of the quarters (S) and the next few months ( M) enables.
  • this target time is saved and remains in the target time display. If a so-called "connection date" is not entered within a further 3 seconds, the clock jumps to the initial situation, i.e. the now-time and the willingness to input back.
  • BT3 and BT4 there are "residual jumps" to their target times.
  • BT5 it is a full target time jump
  • BT6 -1 min it is the target point of the first jump after pressing BT1 to 12:00.
  • Example 2 target time Friday, October 16, 10:00 a.m.
  • the second, the target weekdays group takes you directly to "Monday” on October 12 at 0:00 a.m., with "Fri” directly at Friday, October 16 at 0:00, with BT1 at 6:00. with BT2 at 7:00, 8:00, 9:00, 10:00 a.m. Process finished.
  • the first jump with "Mo" on Monday the 12th is analogous to our first example not only for today, October 8th, but for a long time, from Monday, October 5th, 00:00 to Sunday, October 11th 23: Valid at 59 a.m.
  • the target jump size can vary from one minute to practically a week during this time.
  • An essential idea of the invention is that one jumps from a "flowing", so to speak “own”, “personal” time, which can never be determined exactly, into the time-orientation network that has arisen through culture and tradition.
  • This "cultural" temporal network of orientations consists of a very wide range of time groups such as hours, days, weeks, months, which are all of different sizes and also vary within the individual groups. So the 3, the 5, the 7 in the week, the 12 in the months and again the decimal system plays a role in counting the years. Even the months are not the same length, and the year usually only has 365 days.
  • IDA information differentiation activity
  • main activities can be supplemented with names or product lists, identical activities can be called up in the display, instructions for use can be displayed, various display designs can be called up, etc.
  • the activities, names, telephone numbers etc. can be saved for appointment clocks that do not have an alphanumeric keyboard.
  • Saving repetition appointments is very quick when entering the appointment. By holding down the last input means for the target time for different lengths, these are entered immediately after this time; e.g. 3 seconds for daily, 6 seconds for yearly, 9 seconds for monthly repetition etc.
  • the symbols for the repetition appointments like RD, RW, RM appear behind the target time.
  • PIM is also a small target jump system in itself. It can be used to select the programs with which a target time pre-warning has to be given, the intensity, how strongly optical, mechanical and acoustic pre-warnings should be used, and with the category “Melody” melodies such as "Happy Birthday” or other acoustic sound images that match the main activities.
  • the analog appointment display is a very central, inventive development, which is mentioned in several subclaims and descriptions as an advantageous embodiment.
  • an analog appointment clock is particularly provided, which shows the arrival of an appointment by changing the dial, which is equipped with means to recognize in which hour of the day (24 hours) the target time is noted. It can also be used - in combination with a date display - to display appointments far outside of the next day, and to arrange series of appointments sequentially using a call means (NEL).
  • NEL call means
  • one characteristic of this schedule drag watch is to take over the dates from a digitally represented series of appointments or from a memory, to display them in the vicinity of the main clock dial.
  • MSZ minute trailing hand
  • the minute trailing pointer plays in the context of the Target time notification the last and most important role, namely in interaction with a digital display, but above all with the above-described main element of the target time representation of the appointment tug before the target hour.
  • This minute drag indicator is located behind the minute hand, takes over the finish time from the deadline clock in the finish time hour, displays the finish time, and indicates the finish time by waving and rotating the proximity of the finish time and other important signal zones on the dial.
  • the type of waving can also indicate major activities. It is envisaged that it can be equipped in very many variations, with a luminous tip, as a lighting unit, as a pointer with a changing color in screen displays.
  • this minute drag indicator can also be used e.g. display several target times within the target hour.
  • NEL call-up, acceleration and elimination device
  • the main display can be prepared for correction with NEL, individual or repetition appointments can be deleted, and by simultaneously pressing a target day input means, entire series of appointments can be eliminated from very different time periods.
  • a further embodiment of table clocks is a month-day display field, in which "identical activities" are also displayed at several points in the month can be.
  • Additional program input means are provided as a further advantageous embodiment.
  • “Later” an appointment can be prepared for moving into the future.
  • “Back” a one-time backward jump in time can be effected with a daily target input means.
  • the DFP button Do, Fun, Phone
  • An individual pace can be determined with NQH.
  • input means are also provided which facilitate program control, such as "PD” (program duration), "ST99” (for 99 transmitting stations) or the like. etc..
  • the multifunction button “NEL” is provided as a light element that also emits targeted light rays e.g. on the wrist.
  • a special mechanism for wristwatches provides that a tensioning arm, which can also be read or felt as a pointer, irritates the skin of a wristwatch by sudden movements.
  • a last embodiment mentioned here relates to a senior or blind watch with which preprogrammed sentences including the actual time, target time and coutdown to the target time or a delay in delivery are spoken, initiated and ended by sounds.
  • the module target jump system at a glance It consists of the three main elements I target jump input system, II displays, III advance warnings, each of which is subdivided in a wide variety of ways.
  • the system is made up of module categories, which in turn are used to create individual modules that can themselves be put together to form a variety of information.
  • the system is goal-oriented, be it time goals in the future, activity target areas or information goals etc. These goals - and that is the system - are not quickly run in small steps, but can be achieved forward-oriented in the largest possible leaps in the beginning, large ones Periods, activity or information fields jumps, and from there hierarchically, that is with different target jump sizes to the individual targets.
  • the primary objective is the input, storage and display of target times using the target jump technique, and with the same system the most detailed information possible about the intention - i.e. Activity, type of presentation, type of memory - add.
  • the above three main elements of target jump input system, display and advance warning are used for this.
  • a second but very important task is performed by the included target jump information system, which supports the use of the first system in many ways. However, this will be discussed briefly later.
  • the input status begins with the actuation of a time jump unit. These are shown in FIG. 1 under "A. target day time jump system” with the subunits (10Y) (12M) (7D) target year, target month, target day spring unit and “B. day” Finish Time Jump Unit “(7D).
  • Modules 1 to 4 are now set in the display, while a question mark flashes for three seconds on the slots for modules 5, 6, 7, 8 and prompts you to enter them further. If this is not followed, the input process is ended (E 1, 2, 3, 4). Modules 5, 6, 7 and 8 can be treated completely separately according to the same scheme. If you press one of the buttons for the activity description "Do”, “Fun” or “Phone” within the three waiting units, this word appears under module 5 and now the activity Tennis and via the "IDA” for module 7 of the friend “Miller” can be accessed.
  • module position 6 and / or 7 can be filled in via the computer keyboard, and an additional line can be written under the appointment line, and an "information sheet" can be opened at the same time, on the example Discussion topics, ideas or instructions can be recorded immediately.
  • the "NEL” unit (shown here in a dominant manner) can play a central role in any state of the system, which is to be briefly indicated here, because the effect of “NEL” can extend to all input systems, memories, displays and advance warnings.
  • the next appointments can be called up in the main display, the next steps provided in the program can be made faster - "NEXT” can change the 8-module line prepare, confirm the individual modules with “NEXT” as cursor effect, with "NEXT” a pre-warning program can be stopped and transferred to the next step.
  • the "ELIM” function by holding down for different lengths) words, appointments, repetition appointments can be deleted individually or in connection with a key of the target day time jump system of entire periods and much more.
  • buttons or input means listed under "optional" in the dashed frame are there with reference to the possible optional use in a horizontal connection; however, it will not be discussed in more detail here.
  • the information system is also mentioned only briefly and without going into computer programs of the module-target jump system.
  • the "active information status" can be established, for example, by starting a specific year, month and then day.
  • the dates of the target day then appear.
  • the display image can be held for as long as desired.
  • the system After releasing the button, the system returns to the starting position within three waiting units, i.e. in the immediate readiness and in the now-time, back.
  • the system can instantly transition from the information status to the input status, namely by Pressing a key of the "target time jumping unit” (TTU). From this moment the input status is established. It is now calculated from 0:00 on this day and the destination is entered with the input means BTI to BT6. In this way e.g. on a certain day of the future, another is interposed between existing dates and further described using the target jump entry systems C., D. or E. Such an intervention in already existing things could also be done with the "NEL” button; once by releasing the main display for changes (holding down “NEL” for at least one second, but shorter than three) or by deleting an individual appointment or a series of appointments as already described.
  • TTU target time jumping unit
  • the digital display shows the target time of 10:20 a.m. Since these and all other clocks are constantly in the input waiting status, this target time of 10:20 a.m. could be entered by pressing the two buttons BT3 and BT4.
  • the "NEL” flashing unit starts to emit light signals and, if the process is not interrupted by lightly touching with "NEL”, e.g. an acoustic alarm at 10:20, which could also be interrupted by touching the "NEL” key.
  • 1:00 p.m. can be reached by pressing the daytime button BT1 with a jump to 12:00 p.m., from there with BT1 to 1:00 p.m.
  • BT1 1:00 p.m.
  • Today could be accomplished in a variety of ways. Either by starting the time of day (12:00, 6:00 p.m., 12:00 a.m.) or by pressing the "D" key to jump to the beginning of the next day.

  • Fig. 4a shows a wristwatch in a similar configuration to the table clock Fig. 2, i.e., analog dial, date display, minute drag indicator (1) to show the target time within the appointment hour and to attract attention by waving and rotating shortly before the target time. It also contains a digital display (2) for displaying additional target times, the target time keyboard (3) with the four main day time keys and the two keys for "+1 min” (4) and "-1 min” (5). These last two buttons are designed so that they stand out clearly from the "5 min button", are easy to feel and can be operated with a fingernail.
  • the element (D W) (8) can be used to control the start or dates of individual days or the start of the week.

  • the arrangement of the target time keyboard shown here in Fig. 4a and Fig. 4b in wristwatches with the four main buttons for the main daily target times (BT1 to BT6) and small buttons (Bt5 + Bt6) for "+1 and -1 min" not only allows a quick Enter a target time while sitting or walking normally. If the watch is on the left wrist and is held with the thumb and ring finger of the right hand, the target time can be easily entered with the right index and middle finger even during a long run without having to change the running rhythm.
  • the target time input keyboard (Bt1-Bt6) can therefore not only be used for large clocks (table clocks, wall clocks, etc.), but is also suitable for wristwatches and is therefore suitable for cross-system use in accordance with the formulated aim of the invention.
  • a new target time can be entered not only while walking or during a long run, but also unnoticed in company and when traveling. Once you have got used to the target time input keyboard, you can enter it even in the dark, because the target jumps are not only lightning fast but also accurate to the second and, unlike the systems available on the market, do not require any control or attention to the display.

At 1:00 p.m., this tension arm button jumps to position 0, a position that is very well seen by the watch user, and indicates that the mechanism should be re-opened.
  • 14c shows a blind watch with a scannable analogue clock (1), a separate, also scannable time tracking clock (2) and the target time input means BT1-BT6 (3).
  • the symbols for the four buttons (3) of the destination time input means (Btl-Bt4) are also clearly designed as a relief.
  • the "NEL” button is integrated in the setting crown as a pressure switch. Since a minute trailing hand (MSZ) would be annoying in the appointment hour for a blind watch and would be very complicated to sense, instead of the minute trailing hand, a reminder minute hand is attached to the base plate as a tension arm. This clamping arm is in the scale (4) at position 0 in the rest position. From there, it is stretched clockwise over the 25-minute position and pressed behind the bracelet (5). 25 minutes before the event time occurs, the tension arm jumps out from behind the bracelet, goes to the "25-minute” position and then jumps suddenly, for example every 5 minutes to the next position until the rest position 0. The reminder minute tension pointer thus enables a pre-warning in a discrete manner.
  • Fig. 15 shows a clock, for example for older people who are still mentally fit, but whose eyesight has deteriorated and the handling of small buttons and controls is already causing difficulties.
  • a simple and clear clock face, wide hands, large buttons, legible fonts, strongly flashing NEL light, clear, acoustic word reproduction and above all large target time entry keys (BT1 to BT4) with relief symbols are important for the use.
  • the watch is advantageously equipped with an acoustic unit which reproduces the current time, the time intervals from the set appointment time and individual voice recordings, which can be combined in a modular manner to form useful reminder information units.
  • sentence pattern 15b shows such a possibility as a block in the form of five different sentence patterns (SM).
  • SM sentence patterns
  • each sentence pattern e.g. consists of eight modules, which are initiated and terminated with modules 1 and 8.
  • Set modules 2, 4 and 6 can be pre-programmed.
  • Module 2 gives the time and module 3 the respective difference to the target time or the target time itself.
  • Module 7 - here: "Take medicine" - is recorded via the voice input element "Speak” after the time via the main input means BT1 to BT6 and the written text was entered via the input means "WRITE" or retrieved from the memory.
  • these modules can also be put together and entered orally in another embodiment, so that a close person can be heard instead of a foreign voice.
  • 16a shows a mini organizer and calculator in credit card format with an alphanumeric keyboard. Quick entry of appointments and activities is difficult and lengthy due to the large number and very small buttons.
  • the credit card format is large enough for all four main target jump systems ("4-ZS" keyboard), the target day keyboard, the target time input means, the activity differentiation with "Do, Fun, Phone “and” IDA “, as well as the "MIP” button including the "NEL” element, which is always connected to it, not only in terms of space, but also in the same grouping as it makes sense for large clocks.
  • FIG. 16b shows an "organizer" similar to that in FIG. 16a.
  • a solution to the problem of lengthy appointment entry without showing the keyboard next to it can be solved according to the invention in such a way that the "4-ZS" keyboard only shows the lettering of the target day entry at the upper edge on the front (sketch I) of the "organizer " you can see.
  • the entire keyboard is mounted on the back and in mirror image (here in the review, sketch II).
  • buttons are delicately worked out for the fingertips using delicate relief lines. If you hold the organizer e.g. in the left cupped hand, so the target time and the activity buttons with index finger and middle finger can be pressed through from above or from below.
  • the target day button (see sketch III) can be operated easily and precisely with your thumb and forefinger.
  • 17a shows an additional keyboard which, in addition to a standard keyboard, is connected to a serial computer interface can be used.
  • the programs for this "4-ZS" keyboard provide that they are organized in principle according to the hierarchy target jump system. This means that the majority of all activities can be called up, programmed and managed with a single finger in the shortest possible time or can be supplemented without delay by entering additional text using the normal keyboard.
  • a variant of this and the following keyboards is to provide them with appropriate additional hardware, as well as displays and their own power supply, so that even when the computer is switched off the immediate readiness is guaranteed to reserve new appointments in a matter of seconds.
  • 17b shows in principle the same "4-ZS keyboard", but according to the invention in combination with a three-button mouse.
  • FIG. 18a shows (sketch I) a "4 ZS" keyboard for storage in the disk drive, which is approximately 8 mm smaller than a normal 3.5 inch disk in the insertion direction.
  • the side of the keyboard (1) which is first pushed into the diskette shaft and rails (sketch II) is worked smoothly and moves the spring-loaded trigger arm inside the shaft as far as it will go, but prevents this arm from unlocking the diskette scanner. This means that they remain in the rest position above the diskette without being damaged. So that the floppy does not come back is ejected from the rails (2), the keyboard edges are provided with elastic brake bulges (3) in order to compensate for the spring pressure of the release arm.
  • the "4-ZS" keyboard can be connected via the contact rail (8) and the contact slide (9) to the serial computer interface by means of connecting cables.
  • Notebooks and laptops normally do not have a numerical keyboard due to lack of space. It can be placed on the back (see sketch III) of the "4-ZS" keyboard - in terms of size like normal computers.
  • the drive bay is therefore a space-saving transport container for one or two keyboards.
  • FIG. 18b shows (sketch I) a pen mouse in the form of a specially designed triangular stick, which rests in the hand like a thick pencil. It is supported from below by the ring finger and held between the middle finger and thumb. The ring finger lies in a recess (1) on the right edge, which lies exactly opposite the left surface, where the thumb forms the holding pressure. The index finger is thus free for the pen mouse buttons (2), which are inclined for ergonomic reasons arranged and therefore easy to use.
  • the target day keyboard (3) On the right side of the triangular surface is the target day keyboard (3), on the left (4), the target time keyboard, the target activity keyboard (Do, Fun, Phone + IDA), as well as the "PIM” - and the " NEL "unit.
  • the cable to the serial interface of the computer is attached to the end of the rod.
  • the appointment staff is held with the left hand. The edge opposite the keyboard surface glides on the right palm and can be programmed very quickly and accurately with the right thumb. Since this multifunctional mouse is very space-saving and the format is not much larger than three bundled pencils, it is well suited for traveling with notebooks and laptops.
  • the target jump appointment entry system can be used across systems.
  • 19a shows a "4-ZS" retrofit keyboard on a strong plastic film (1) with a connecting cable for a serial computer interface.
  • the lower part of the keyboard (2) is free to hang up Explanation template for the 12 function keys of the standard keyboard.
  • Holders (3) are attached to the upper part of the keyboard by means of self-adhesive foils and the "4-ZS" keyboard is inserted. In this way, practically any standard keyboard can be retrofitted with the "4-ZS" keyboard.
  • a second variant of this "4-ZS" retrofit keyboard contains a digital display and the corresponding hardware and a charging battery unit in the form of a rod, which can be glued to the standard keyboard behind the retrofit keyboard.
  • the connection is in this case via a branch of the main keyboard interface.
  • Figure 19b is a combination of a standard keyboard with a "4-ZS" keyboard as a unit.
  • Main features 2 cm free strip (1) for laying on the program-specific explanatory template for the function buttons 1-12.
  • a mounting groove (2) delimits the entire keyboard, in which a light strip can be retrofitted to indicate upcoming appointments or other events with a play of light.
  • the keyboard contains a retrofit field (3) above the numerical keyboard for the optional retrofitting of a labelable, for example, six-part additional keyboard or a "2-AT" clock for time and appointment display when the computer is switched off.
  • an LCD display could also be retrofitted, for which the power supply comes from a charging battery that is connected to the keyboard voltage.
  • Figure 19c is also the combination of a standard keyboard with the target jump system, but for Large companies, institutions and planning companies that deal with medium and long-term projects on a daily basis.
  • the complete target day-time jump system also shown in FIG. 1, with the 3 target jump units (10Y) (12M) (7D) is integrated (see enlarged view) to directly access Access projects or representations of specific years, months or days.
