Definitions

  • the present invention relates to electronic watches and more particularly to quartz watches provided with a date.
  • Analogue quartz watches on the market are adjustable only by the user. However, the user does not know whether the time he is setting represents the time before or after noon, resulting in the date changing inappropriately.
  • said at least one piece of data comprises an hour in a 24-hour time system or in a 12-hour time system.
  • said first period is between midnight and noon, or greater than or equal to "00:00” and strictly less than "12:00” and / or said second period is between noon and midnight or greater than or equal to "12:00 noon” "And strictly less than” 00h00 ".
  • said at least one item of data indicates a time of day in a standardized system.
  • the step of detecting a passage of the time from said first period to said second period corresponding to a first passage or of a passage of the time from said second period to said first corresponding period at a second pass is a first pass or of a passage of the time from said second period to said first corresponding period at a second pass.
  • said detection of said passage of time comprises detection of a change of date.
  • said change of date is detected by a change in torque of said engine.
  • said correction comprises an addition of the difference to said time during or after the second pass.
  • said addition controls the rotation of the motor.
  • said at least one receiving member being configured to receive electromagnetic and / or light waves.
  • the event is recurrent when the battery is changed, or when a watch has come out of economy mode to save energy and the user must then set the time on his watch but without knowing whether the time set. 109 is before noon or afternoon, ante meridien either AM or post meridien or PM to use the Anglo-Saxon terms.
  • an automatic correction watch 100 comprising at least one reception member 130 , at least one detection member 170 , and at least one central unit 150 configured. to implement a correction method 500.
  • an aim of the method according to the invention is to verify in the first hours of operation of said automatic correcting watch 100 that the set time 109 corresponds to the time of the day when said automatic correcting watch 100 has been set or updated.
  • said correction method 500 moves back the time 541 from 12 noon to 12 noon or to the following midnight.
  • said correction method 500 does not detect 520 the jump to midnight, said correction method 500 advances 542 from 12 noon to midnight to cause the date jump 527.
  • said at least one reception member 130 receives 510 at least one piece of data 131, comprising at least one period of the day from among a first period 101 and a second period 102 , by electromagnetic and / or light waves.
  • said correction method 500 implemented by said at least one central unit 150 , which receives 510 said at least one datum 131 via said at least one reception member 130 .
  • Said at least one central unit 150 can trigger the implementation of said correction method 500 following a battery change for example.
  • a mobile phone 999 can be used to transmit said at least one piece of data 131 which includes an hour in a 24-hour time system or in a 12-hour time system, in other words an hour with minutes and seconds in a system. standardized, and / or at least one date.
  • the user can adjust the time 101 using at least one adjusting member 140 by moving an hour hand 110 and / or a minute hand 120 to the desired time.
  • the user indicates, with said hour hand 110 , approximately the index "3", more precisely a space between the index "3” and "4", and with said minute hand 120 index "10".
  • the set time 109 is "3:50" or "03:50", that is to say a time which belongs, for example, to a first period 101 between midnight and noon, or greater than or equal to "00h00” or “00:00” and strictly less than “12h00” or “12:00”, or "15:50” or “15:50”, that is to say a time which belongs, for example, to a second period 102 between noon and midnight or greater than or equal to “012h00” or “12:00” and strictly less than “00h00” or “00:00”.
  • the time elapses 511 said at least one data item 131 , which was stored in a memory 160 , is incremented as the time elapses and the set time 109 turns 519 , in other words said at least one data item 131 and the set time 109 changes over time 519 in a similar manner.
  • said correction method 500 detects 520 a change in torque 527 , due to the driving of the date disc 525 by said motor 160 , by the 'intermediary of said at least one detection member 170 , which may be in the form of a conventional divider bridge and therefore said at least one central unit 150 , connected to said at least one detection member 170 , detects 520 a change in torque 527 through the power consumption of said motor 160.
  • said at least one detection member 170 detects 520 said passage of the set time 109 between said first period 101 and said second period 102 , preferably said passage of time from said first period 101 to said second period 102.
  • said passage of midnight may be detected 520 by said at least one central unit 150 with a delay of up to 40 minutes in extreme conditions.
  • said passage from day to night, and preferably, said passage of midnight is detected 520 and said at least one central unit 150 makes a difference 530 , that is to say subtracts said time set 109 by the user by with respect to said at least one piece of data 131 received.
  • said difference 530 is zero, this means that said time set 109 by the user corresponds to said at least one piece of data 131 received and no action is taken by said at least one central unit 150 , or adding "0" to said. time set 109. More specifically, the time set 109 by the user may differ from said at least one item of data 131 by a few seconds or even minutes. In this case, what matters is the difference between the hour unit of the set time 109 and the hour unit of said at least one datum 131 , and it is this difference 530 which is zero.
  • said at least one central processing unit 150 corrects 540 said time as a function of the result of said difference 530.
  • said time set 109 by the user was " 3:50 pm ”and that said at least one piece of data 131 received indicated“ 3:50 ”, said correction 540 will add 545 the difference 530 to said time during or after the second pass, ie“ -12h ”, and therefore said addition 545 , more precisely, said at least one central unit 150 will rotate said motor 160 in the counterclockwise direction 541 in order to indicate noon, or "12h00" instead of midnight, or 0h00.
  • a second case is also anticipated by the invention since if said difference 530 is not zero and said time set 109 by the user was “03:50” and said at least one piece of data 131 received indicated “3:50 pm”, said correction 540 will add 545 again the difference 530 at said time during or after the second pass, that is to say "+ 12h”, and therefore said addition 545 , more precisely, said at least one central unit 150 will make said motor 160 turn clockwise 542 in order to to indicate midnight, either 0h00 instead of midday, or "12h00", so the time is corrected automatically.
  • the present invention makes it possible to receive via the smartphone 999 said at least one piece of data 131 after the battery change or during a change of time zone and provides user comfort.
