JP3014102U - Sun clock - Google Patents

Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] Overseas business travelers can know the time without adjusting the clock separately, and some clocks are installed in the lobby of large buildings, travel agencies, and offices where international transactions are frequent. It can be confirmed with one clock without it. Also, when making an international call, you can immediately know the time over there, children around the age of school can be made aware of the relationship between the earth and the moon, etc. Is displayed and the national flags of each country are easy to understand and can be used for fashion watches. [Configuration] The present invention relates to a multi-country time display clock,
The nation is shown on the time plate of the clock for time discrimination based on the standard time of many countries, and the rotary plate is configured so that it can be easily understood by the analog hour hand operating means.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention makes it possible for people traveling the world or people doing international work to instantly know the local time and the other time without calculating or performing a separate operation, and appropriately plan an action plan. However, it is useful for smooth business communication with long-distance areas.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 The ancestors before the modernization of the clock tried to measure the time with a sun clock, an hourglass, etc. In the case of the sun clock, the time was measured by observing the shadow position using a stick. The current analog type clock shows only the time in a specific area, and in order to know the time in the other country, the time in the other country can be set simply by not using the time difference calculation or by rotating the auxiliary disk on which the area name is displayed. It was at a level that could be measured.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 In the case of the primitive solar clocks used by ancestors, the position of the shadow in each time zone changes due to the rotation of the earth in a tilted state, and it is not available in cloudy days or nights. However, since it inherits the principle of the solar clock progressively and shows the position of the sun on the whole earth, it has come to take measures to know the time of each country in the world.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 Because of the tilted rotation of the earth, the sunrise time and sunset time are different for each region, so it can be said that the overall average for each region rises at 6 am and sets at 6 pm. Therefore, assuming this, 24 hour hands are required to indicate the position and time of the day in each region, but instead of 24 hour hands, the timepiece actuating means (110) replaces the disc (100). ) Is rotated, and the display of each region is made to recognize the time by drawing the national flag (120) of the corresponding region. In this case, the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, so the rotation of the rotating plate is required to rotate in the opposite direction to the previous clock, and the time display is full on the right side (the position of the existing clock at 3 o'clock). Sometimes the day is 12 o'clock above the center. Then, the whole west side (9 o'clock position of the existing clock) becomes 18:00, and the time right below is 24:00. The area covered by the national flag shown in the upper part of the center is shown in the daytime, and the area covered by the national flag shown in the lower part of the center is shown in the evening.

[0005]

[Action]

 If the rotating plate rotates once a day by the clock action means, it will be possible to see the changes in the sun position and time of each country at a glance without any adjustment. The time display function of the existing analog timepieces has been expanded, and since the hour hand is not adopted, the clock operating means (MOVEMENT) is simplified (the hour hand, minute hand, second hand, etc. are not required). Since the timepiece operation means itself is a well-known technique, its illustration and description will be omitted.

[0006]

【Example】

 In the situation shown in FIG. 1, Korea and Japan are currently at 6 am and the UK is at 8 pm the day before.

[0007]

[Effect of device]

 As mentioned above, doing international work with the expectation that it will be convenient for travelers, especially executives of aircraft and ships, since the time of each country can be immediately known without any additional calculations or adjustments It provides convenience for people who want to make international calls, and one clock is sufficient even if several clocks are not installed in the lobby of a large building. It is possible for children around the age of school to recognize the relationship between the earth and the day, and because the national flags of each country are displayed on the clock rotating plate, it is easy to remember the national flags of each country, and it is also used for fashion watches. I can.

[Brief description of drawings]

FIG. 1 is a plan view of the device. Displayed on the outer circumference of the timepiece rotation plate (100) and the outer circumference of the timepiece rotation plate (100), which makes one rotation to the left for 24 hours by the timepiece operation means (110) and disperses national flags on the surface to display the national flag (120). It is configured on the clock display board (200).

FIG. 2 is a vertical sectional view of the device. The time display plate (200) has a built-in timepiece operation means (110).

Claims (1)

[Scope of utility model registration request] 1. The rotating disk and the outer circumference of the clock rotating disk, in which the disk is rotated once in the opposite direction of the existing clock for 24 hours by the clock operating means, and the national flag is shown on the surface to discriminate the time of each nation. By showing the position of the sun in each country, which is characterized in that 24 hours are evenly displayed in the opposite direction of the existing timepiece, 0 o'clock (24 o'clock) is shown directly below, and the timepiece operating means is incorporated. A solar clock that reports the time in each country.
