Abstract

The device has a case (1) whose front face is provided with a Fresnel lens (8) through which heat emitted by movements of a hand and a head of a muslim person during supplication is passed. A pyroelectric sensor detects movements at a prostrate position during supplication. A microcontroller connected to the sensor memorizes passage of the movements at the prostrate position. The case includes an electronic compass module that is connected with an LED and a buzzer, and indicates direction of North pole to determine a prayer direction.

Description

-1- La présente invention concerne un dispositif, pour indiquer le nombre d'unités de prière dans la supplication d'un musulman, la fin de celle-ci, ainsi que le moment du Tachahoud (salutations) grâce à la détection des mouvements de prosternement du musulman. En effet il arrive souvent, que le musulman soit incertain du nombre d'unités de prière dans la supplication, l'art antérieur pouvait indiquer le nombre d'unités de prière, mais il fallait poser sa tête sur une plaque, ce qui devait se faire à un endroit précis du tapis, et qui pouvait déconcentrer la pratiquant dans la supplication, d'autant plus que les personnes non voyantes ou illettrées ne pouvaient pas l'utiliser, aussi pour rester dans la tradition de la prière parfaite, il ne faut pas être en contact physique avec un objet. The present invention relates to a device, to indicate the number of prayer units in the supplication of a Muslim, the end of it, as well as the moment of the Tachahoud (greetings) through the detection of movements of prostration of the Muslim. Indeed, it often happens that the Muslim is uncertain of the number of prayer units in the supplication, the prior art could indicate the number of prayer units, but it was necessary to put his head on a plate, which should be to do at a specific place on the carpet, and that could distract the practitioner in the supplication, especially since the blind or illiterate could not use it, also to remain in the tradition of the perfect prayer, it is not necessary not be in physical contact with an object.

Le dispositif selon l'invention permet de remédier à ces inconvénients. Il comporte en effet selon une première caractéristique, un boîtier présentant un capteur pyroélectrique et une lentille de Fresnel par laquelle peuvent être détectés des mouvements de prosternement sans avoir de contact physique avec le prieur, des Led et un Buzzer qui indiquent le nombre d'unités de prière même à un non voyant ou illettré. The device according to the invention overcomes these disadvantages. It has in fact according to a first characteristic, a housing having a pyroelectric sensor and a Fresnel lens by which can be detected prostration movements without having physical contact with the prior, LEDs and Buzzer that indicate the number of units of prayer even to a blind or illiterate.

Ce capteur pyroélectrique, peut être disposé de façon à détecter les mouvements provenant du haut vers le bas et du bas vers le haut, ainsi quand le prieur s'incline avec ses deux mains et sa tête au sol (prosternement) et qu'il se redresse, le microcontrôleur relié au capteur, mémorise les deux passages du haut vers le bas et du bas vers le haut. Après quatre passages, devant le capteur pyroélectrique, le microcontrôleur signale par l'allumage d'une Led sur les quatre Led disponibles, avec un bip sonore, qui signal au prieur l'accomplissement d'une unité de prière dans sa supplication. La supplication s'en trouve soit au quart de sa durée, soit au tiers, soit à sa moitié, soit au trois quarts ou à la fin, et cela en fonction des différentes de prières du moment de la journée. Quand deux Led sont allumées et les deux signaux sonores retentissent, à ce moment précis le prieur doit faire le Tachahoud (salutations), et ainsi deux unités de prière sont accomplies. Le Tachahoud; (salutations), signifie l'accomplissement de la moitié, ou des deux tiers ou de la fin de la supplication, en fonction des différentes prières de la journée. Le boîtier peut comporter, un module de boussole électronique, qui, connecté au microcontrôleur, aux Led, et au buzzer, peut indiquer la direction du pôle nord de façon à déterminer la direction de la prière. Les dessins annexés illustrent l'invention : La figure 1 représente le dispositif de l'invention. La figure 2 représente la carte électronique avec ses composants en vue de haut. La figure 3 représente la carte électronique avec ses composants en perspective. This pyroelectric sensor, can be arranged to detect the movements from top to bottom and from bottom to top, so when the prior bows with both hands and his head to the ground (prostrate) and he right, the microcontroller connected to the sensor, memorizes the two passages from top to bottom and from bottom to top. After four passes, in front of the pyroelectric sensor, the microcontroller signals by lighting an LED on the four available LEDs, with a beep, which signals to the prior the completion of a prayer unit in his supplication. The supplication is either a quarter of its duration, or a third, or half, or three quarters or the end, and this according to the different prayers of the time of day. When two Led are lit and the two beeps sound, then the prior must do the Tachahoud (greetings), and so two units of prayer are performed. The Tachahud; (greetings), means the completion of half, or two-thirds or the end of the supplication, according to the different prayers of the day. The housing may include an electronic compass module, which, connected to the microcontroller, the LEDs, and the buzzer, may indicate the direction of the north pole so as to determine the direction of the prayer. The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention: FIG. 1 represents the device of the invention. Figure 2 shows the electronic card with its components in high view. Figure 3 shows the electronic card with its components in perspective.

En référence à ces dessins, le dispositif comporte un boîtier (1) placé perpendiculairement à -2- La direction de la prière sans contact physique avec le prieur, dont la face avant, dirigée vers le prieur, est munie d'une lentille de Fresnel (8) qui permet de laisser passer les sources de chaleur émises par les mouvements de prosternement, qui peuvent être détectés par le capteur pyroélectrique (2). Les informations sont ensuite transmises à un microcontrôleur (3) qui signale l'information aux Led (4) avec leurs allumage, et qui produit au même moment un signal sonore émit par le buzzer (5). Le boîtier (1), intègre un module de boussole électronique (6), qui indique le pôle nord, et permet de trouver assez facilement la direction des prières. L'interrupteur (7) a trois positions, ce qui permet de changer de mode, sur les deux possibles. Mode pyroélectrique ; permet la détections de mouvements durant les supplications du musulman. With reference to these drawings, the device comprises a housing (1) placed perpendicular to -2- The direction of the prayer without physical contact with the prior, whose front face, facing the prior, is provided with a Fresnel lens (8) which allows to pass the heat sources emitted by prostration movements, which can be detected by the pyroelectric sensor (2). The information is then transmitted to a microcontroller (3) which signals the information to the LEDs (4) with their ignition, and which produces at the same time a sound signal emitted by the buzzer (5). The housing (1), incorporates an electronic compass module (6), which indicates the north pole, and makes it quite easy to find the direction of prayers. The switch (7) has three positions, which allows to change mode, on both possible. Pyroelectric mode; allows detections of movements during the supplications of the Muslim.

Mode Boussole ; permet à l'utilisateur de trouver la direction de la prière en fonction du pôle nord, avec le module boussole électronique (6), et la troisième position permet d'éteindre le boîtier (1). A titre d'exemple, le boîtier aura des dimensions de l'ordre 3,5cm pour la largeur, 6cm pour la longueur et 1,5cm pour la hauteur. Avec sa taille réduite, le boîtier pourra facilement être transporté en déplacement. en voyage, 15 et se glisser dans une poche. Le dispositif selon l'invention, est particulièrement destiné aux supplications des musulmans du inonde entier. Compass Mode; allows the user to find the direction of prayer according to the North Pole, with the electronic compass module (6), and the third position to turn off the housing (1). For example, the housing will have dimensions of about 3.5 cm for the width, 6 cm for the length and 1.5 cm for the height. With its small size, the housing can easily be transported on the move. on a trip, 15 and slip into a pocket. The device according to the invention is particularly intended for the supplications of Muslims throughout the world.
