Claims (8)
- A projection clock (1) comprising a housing (2) with an emission opening (7) for a light beam (14), which housing comprises at least a light source (10), a clock with a reflecting dial (11), and a lens (16), a light beam (14) from the light source (10) being at least reflected by the reflecting dial (11) of the clock during the operation of the projection clock (1) and subsequently leaving the housing (2) through the lens (16), characterized in that the housing (2) is in addition provided with at least one light-directing member (12), while the light source (10), the reflecting dial (11) of the clock, the light-directing member (12), and the lens (16) are positioned in relation to one another such that the light beam (14) is reflected both by the reflecting dial (11) of the clock and by the light-directing member (12) before the light beam (14) issues from the housing (2) via the lens (16).
- A projection clock as claimed in Claim 1, characterized in that the housing (2) comprises a basic element (3) on which a hollow body (4) is detachably fastened.
- A projection clock as claimed in Claim 2, characterized in that the basic element (3) is at least partly open at the lower side and thus forms an open passage between the interior of the housing (2) and the surroundings, and in that the hollow body (4) becomes narrower towards its upper side.
- A projection clock as claimed in any one or several of the Claims 1 to 3, characterized in that the clock with the reflecting dial (11) is detachably accommodated in the housing (2).
- A projection clock as claimed in Claim 3, characterized in that the clock with the reflecting dial (11) is detachably accommodated in the basic element (3).
- A projection clock as claimed in any one or several of the preceding Claims, characterized in that the emission opening (7) for the light beam (14) is present at the upper side of the housing (2).
- A projection clock as claimed in any one or several of the preceding Claims, characterized in that the housing (2) is provided with a second light-directing member (8) which is positioned such that said second member (8) is in the path of the light beam (14) when the beam (14) issues from the housing (2).
- A projection clock as claimed in Claim 7, characterized in that the second light-directing member (8) is coupled to the housing (2) with rotation possibility about a spindle (9).
