It is a front view which concerns on the other Example of this invention and shows the state which attached the timepiece to the wall surface.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In FIG. 1, the timepiece 1 of this example is provided with a timepiece display unit 2 at the center, and speaker units 3 and 3 are arranged on the left and right sides of the timepiece display unit 2. When the timepiece 1 is used as a wall clock, an AC connector 5 is provided at the lower end of the AC power cord 4 as shown in FIG. The AC connector 5 is connected to a power cord 4 from an AC adapter 14 described later.

  When the timepiece 1 is placed and used, the timepiece 1 is supported by using a stand member 6 provided at the rear portion of the timepiece case 11 as shown in FIG.

  When the timepiece 1 is hung and used, as shown in FIG. 5, the timepiece 1 is supported by using a wall-mounting attachment member 7 provided at the rear portion of the timepiece case 11.

  As described above, the timepiece 1 of the present example is provided with the timepiece display unit 2 and the speaker unit 3 in the timepiece case 11, and the timepiece display unit 2 uses an AC power source. Is to receive a short-distance wireless communication (Bluetooth; registered trademark) and reproduce a sound source. Further, as shown in FIG. 5, the watch case 11 includes a watch driving circuit device 8 and a short-range wireless communication circuit device 9, and these circuit devices 8 and 9 are independent of each other. And function.

  In this example, Bluetooth (registered trademark) is used for short-range wireless communication. As is well known, Bluetooth (registered trademark) is used for exchanging simple information between information devices at a distance of several meters to several tens of meters using radio waves. Generally, 2.4 GHz is used. The band is divided into 79 frequency channels, and wireless communication is performed at a maximum of 24 Mbps between information devices while performing frequency hopping that randomly changes the frequency to be used.

  In FIG. 5, reference numeral 10 is a lighting auxiliary plate, 14 is an AC adapter, 15 is a short-distance radio communication start switch, 16 is a pairing of a short-distance radio communication start switch, 17 is a speaker net, and 18 is a mounting plate. , 19 is a decorative board.

  Further, the watch case 11 of this example is composed of a front plate 12 and a rear case member 13, and the front plate 12 is provided with a portion 12a for setting a clock display portion at the center, and speaker portions on the left and right sides thereof. Sites 12b and 12b are provided.

  In FIG. 9, in this example, the AC connector 5 is attached to an appropriate portion of the wall surface with tapping screws 5a and 5a. As shown in FIG. 10, the jack 4a provided at the tip of the AC power cord 4 on the AC adapter 14 side is connected to the AC connector 5 fixed to the wall surface.

  FIG. 11 relates to another embodiment of the present invention. In this example, when the timepiece 1 is attached to the wall surface, the cord power cord 4 between the timepiece case 11 and the AC connector 5 is attached to the cord latch. 20 is provided. The cord latching tool 20 is capable of revealing an AC power cord 4 between the watch case 11 and the AC connector 5 in an appropriate and arbitrary wall-fixing shape, such as a tapping screw not shown. Is used to form the fixed shape of the AC power cord 4.

  In this regard, as described above, according to the conventional wall fixing structure of the AC power cord, the AC power cord of the AC power type wall clock is directly connected to an outlet such as a wall without using the AC connector as described above. Therefore, the design effect on the appearance was significantly limited due to the length and material distortion and looseness of the AC power cord itself. That is, the visual appearance intended by the user cannot be reflected. In this case, in order to reflect the visual appearance intended by the user, it has been necessary to make holes in the wall surface and wire the inside of the wall surface, or to wire using a separate part such as a wiring molding.

  As described above, when the cord hook 20 is provided on the AC power cord 4 between the watch case 11 and the AC connector 5 by using the AC connector 5, the AC power required for the AC power type wall clock is used. With respect to the wiring of the power cord, by providing a wiring fixing point with the cord hooking / stopping tool 20, it is possible to realize a wiring configuration that exhibits the uniqueness of the user. Further, by providing the wiring fixing point, the slack of the wiring can be eliminated.

  As described above, according to the timepiece 1 of this example, the timepiece display unit 2 and the speaker unit 3 are provided in the timepiece case 11, and the circuit device 8 for driving the timepiece and the short range wireless communication are used. Since the circuit device 9 and the circuit devices 8 and 9 function independently of each other, the clock display function and the speaker that reproduces the sound source by the short-range wireless communication (Bluetooth) with one product. And an AC power supply system.

  Further, the AC connector 5 is arranged between the AC power cords 4 and 4, or the AC power cord 4 between the watch case and the AC connector 5 or between the AC connector 5 and the outlet is hooked on the cord. Since the stopper 20 is provided, it is possible to realize a wiring configuration that exhibits the uniqueness of the user. Further, by providing wiring fixing points such as the AC connector 5 and the cord latching tool 20, the slack of the wiring can be eliminated.

  The wiring device for the power cord in the AC power type wall clock according to the present invention is a single product, and includes a clock display function, a speaker that reproduces a sound source by short-range wireless communication (Bluetooth), and an AC power source system. Thus, the power cord can be suitably used as a wiring device for a power cord in a wall clock that can be used both on a wall and on a wall.
