It is output and used for various settings.

FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing a functional configuration of the analog electronic clock 1.
The analog electronic clock 1 includes a CPU 41 (Central Processing Unit) (control unit), a ROM 42 (Read Only Memory), a RAM 43 (Random Access Memory), an oscillation circuit 44, a frequency dividing circuit 45, and time counting as a time measuring means. The circuit 46 (counting unit), the operation reception unit 47, the satellite radio wave reception processing unit 48 and its antenna AN1, the standard radio wave reception unit 49 and its antenna AN2, the drive circuit 51, the power supply unit 52, and the above-mentioned. It includes time pointers 61 to 63, a rotating plate 64, a train wheel mechanism 71 to 74, stepping motors 81 to 84, and the like.

The CPU 41 is a processor that performs various arithmetic processes and controls the overall operation of the analog electronic clock 1. The CPU 41 controls the pointer operation related to the display of the date and time. The CPU 41 converts the date and time counted by the timekeeping circuit 46 into an appropriate local time based on the local time setting information consisting of the set time zone and daylight saving time implementation information, and is converted in the execution mode of the normal time display function. The local time is displayed by the time pointers 61 to 63.
Further, the CPU 41 operates the satellite radio wave reception processing unit 48 and the standard radio wave reception unit 49 to acquire date and time information, and acquires the current position based on the operation of the satellite radio wave reception processing unit 48. The CPU 41 corrects the date and time counted by the timekeeping circuit 46 based on the obtained date and time data. Further, the CPU 41 can change the local time setting information based on the data of the current position.

The ROM 42 stores various control programs 421 and setting data executed by the CPU 41. The program 421 includes, for example, a program related to operation control of various function modes. In addition, the setting data includes the city name that can be selected when setting the local time, the position (marked position) on the rotating plate 64 provided with the sign indicating the city, and the time zone (from UTC time) in the city. Includes the local time table 422, which stores the time difference) and the daylight saving time implementation rule (the implementation period and the amount of time shift in the implementation period) in a table. Further, the ROM 42 stores and holds a sign list 423 associated with the position and content of each sign on the rotating plate 64 and the type of functional operation to which the position can be pointed. It should be noted that the range (rotation angle range) in which the markers corresponding to the types of a plurality of (two or more predetermined numbers) of functional operations are provided is uniquely limited (that is, different from each other), and each marker is within the range. When they are arranged at equal intervals, only the correspondence between the function type and the range may be separately stored and retained.

The RAM 43 provides the CPU 41 with a working memory space and stores temporary data. Further, the RAM 43 stores a history related to acquisition of date and time information and position information, local time setting information 431 currently selected and set, data indicating a pointer position, and the like.

The oscillation circuit 44 generates and outputs a predetermined frequency signal. The oscillation circuit 44 includes, for example, a crystal oscillator.
The frequency dividing circuit 45 divides the frequency signal output from the oscillation circuit 44 into a frequency signal used by the CPU 41 and the timekeeping circuit 46, and outputs the frequency signal. The output frequency may be set to be changeable by a control signal from the CPU 41.

The timekeeping circuit 46 counts the current date and time by counting and adding the frequency dividing signal input from the frequency dividing circuit 45 to the initial value indicating a predetermined date and time. The date and time counted by the timekeeping circuit 46 has an error (rate) according to the accuracy of the oscillation circuit 44, for example, about 0.5 seconds a day. The date and time counted by the timekeeping circuit 46 can be corrected by a control signal from the CPU 41.

The operation reception unit 47 receives an input operation from the user. The operation reception unit 47 includes the crown C1 described above. When the crown C1 is pulled out, pushed back, and rotated, an electric signal corresponding to the operation type is output to the CPU 41. The crown C1 can be withdrawn in two stages, and accepts operations according to the withdrawal state. The operation reception unit 47 may also include one or more push button switches, a touch panel, and the like.

The satellite radio wave reception processing unit 48 receives radio waves from positioning satellites including at least positioning satellites (GPS satellites) related to GPS (Global Positioning System) using the antenna AN1, and the spectrum-spread transmission radio waves from these positioning satellites. Is demolished to decode and decode the signal (navigation message data). The satellite radio wave reception processing unit 48 includes a reception unit 481, a control unit 482, and a storage unit 483, and the code string of the navigation message received and demodulated by the reception unit 481 is decoded by the control unit 482, and further. Date and time information, current position information, and the like are acquired by performing various arithmetic processes as needed. The control unit 482 outputs data according to the request from the CPU 41 to the CPU 41 in a preset format.

A non-volatile memory such as a flash memory or an EEPROM (Electrically Erasable and Programmable Read Only Memory) is used in the storage unit 483, and the stored contents are held regardless of the power supply state to the satellite radio wave reception processing unit 48. In the storage unit 483, setting data such as various operation control programs, predicted orbit information of each positioning satellite acquired from the positioning satellite, and a leap second correction value can be stored and held.
The storage unit 483 can store and hold leap second correction data necessary for acquiring the date and time, position prediction information (orbit information) of each positioning satellite, and the like.

Each configuration of the satellite radio wave reception processing unit 48 is collectively formed on the chip as one module, and is connected to the CPU 41. The operation of the satellite radio wave reception processing unit 48 is controlled by the CPU 41 to be turned on and off independently of the operations of other parts of the analog electronic clock 1. In the analog electronic clock 1, when it is not necessary to operate the satellite radio wave reception processing unit 48, the power supply to the satellite radio wave reception processing unit 48 is interrupted to save power.

The standard radio wave receiving unit 49 receives a standard radio wave including date and time information via the antenna AN2, which is transmitted by a radio wave in a long wavelength band, and demodulates and identifies a code string (time code signal). It is output to the CPU 41 as a binarized digital signal. The standard radio wave receiving unit 49 receives the standard radio wave by changing the tuning frequency according to the transmission frequency of each standard radio wave under the control of the CPU 41 to be received. Further, the standard radio wave receiving unit 49 may be provided with various processing circuits and the like for reducing and removing the influence of noise in the identification of each code.
The operation of the standard radio wave receiving unit 49 can be controlled to be turned on and off independently of the operation of each other unit of the analog electronic clock 1 by the CPU 41.

The power supply unit 52 supplies electric power related to the operation of each unit from the battery 521 at a predetermined voltage. The battery includes, for example, a solar panel and a secondary battery. Alternatively, a removable button-type dry battery may be used as the battery. Further, when a plurality of different voltages are output from the power supply unit 52, the power supply unit 52 may be provided with, for example, a switching power supply, and can be converted into a desired voltage and output.

The stepping motor 81 rotates the second hand 61 via a train wheel mechanism 71, which is an array of a plurality of gears. When the stepping motor 81 is driven once, the second hand 61 rotates 6 degrees in one step, and the stepping motor 81 makes one round on the dial 3 by the operation of the stepping motor 81 60 times.
The stepping motor 82 rotates the minute hand 62 via the train wheel mechanism 72. When the stepping motor 82 is driven once, the minute hand 62 rotates once per step, and the stepping motor 82 makes a full turn on the dial 3 by 360 operations.

The stepping motor 83 rotates the hour hand 63 via the train wheel mechanism 73. When the stepping motor 83 is driven once, the hour hand 63 rotates once per step, and the stepping motor 83 makes a full turn on the dial 3 by 360 operations.

The stepping motor 84 rotates the rotating plate 64 via the train wheel mechanism 74. When the stepping motor 84 is driven once, the rotating plate 64 is rotated by 0.15 degrees in one step. That is, the rotary plate 64 is rotated 6 degrees by the rotational movement of 40 steps, is moved by one sign (that is, 6 degrees) arranged at intervals of 6 degrees, and is moved below the dial 3 by the rotational movement of 2400 steps. Go around with.

The pointers 61 to 64 are not particularly limited, but have a maximum speed of 400 pps (pulse per second) (maximum speed) in the forward rotation direction (time advance direction, clockwise) and reverse direction (time return direction, counterclockwise), respectively. ), And the analog electronic clock 1 can be controlled to rotate at a plurality of fast-forward speeds (fast-forward movement speeds) such as 200 pps, 128 pps, 64 pps, and 32 pps. You can. In order to rotate both the time pointers 61 to 63 and the rotating plate 64 at 400 pps, a stepping motor 84 having a higher capacity than the stepping motors 81 to 83 may be used. The apparent rotation speed of the rotary plate 64 is determined by the product of the operating speed (pps) of the stepping motor and the magnitude of the rotation angle (rotation angle due to the input of one pulse) of the rotary plate 64 per step. The rotation speed referred to here is the magnitude (absolute value) of the speed unless otherwise specified, and the rotation direction is separately determined.

The drive circuit 51 outputs a drive pulse of a predetermined voltage to the stepping motors 81 to 84 according to a control signal from the CPU 41 to rotate the rotor of the stepping motors 81 to 84 by a predetermined angle (for example, 180 degrees) with respect to the stator. The drive circuit 51 can change the length (pulse width) of the drive pulse according to the state of the analog electronic clock 1 and the like. Further, when a control signal for driving a plurality of pointers at the same time is input, the output timing of the drive pulse can be slightly shifted in order to reduce the load.

Of these configurations, the CPU 41, ROM 42, RAM 43, oscillation circuit 44, frequency dividing circuit 45, and timekeeping circuit 46 can be collectively formed as a microcomputer (computer) on the chip. Alternatively, the ROM 42, the oscillator of the oscillation circuit 44, and the like may be externally attached to the microcomputer.

Next, the rotation operation of the rotating plate 64 in the analog electronic clock 1 of the present embodiment will be described.

In the analog electronic clock 1, the CPU 41 determines the end point and automatically stops the rotation of the rotating plate 64 (that is, the display is switched between the two preset display contents), and the operation reception unit 47. The rotation of the rotary plate 64 may be stopped at an arbitrary position (including the case where the stoptable position is limited) according to the stop command acquired in response to the input operation to. In the former case, the CPU 41 quickly determines the rotational movement direction of the rotary plate 64, calculates the movement amount, and then rotates the rotary plate 64 at the maximum settable speed (set movement speed). The rotating plate 64 can be moved to a desired position.

On the other hand, when the rotation operation of the rotary plate 64 is stopped based on the input operation to the operation reception unit 47, the user can use the rotation position of the rotary plate 64 (for example, the angular direction of the reference sign A1 with respect to the 12 o'clock direction of the dial 3). That is, the operation of stopping at a desired position is performed while visually recognizing the sign exposed from the opening 31. At this time, since only three of the plurality of signs on the rotating plate 64 are exposed from the opening 31, the user can rotate the desired sign hidden in the dial 3 by the remaining number of steps before the display position. It is not always possible to guess in advance whether to move to and stop. Further, when the rotating plate 64 is continuously fast-forwarded, the time for each sign to be exposed from the opening 31 becomes shorter as the fast-forward speed increases, and the stop operation is performed after the user notices that the desired sign has been exposed. Due to the time lag between the time when the rotation is actually stopped and the rotation actually stops, the desired sign greatly exceeds the display position, and the user cannot visually recognize the exposure of the desired sign. On the other hand, if the rotation speed of the rotating plate 64 is uniformly reduced, the time required for switching the signs becomes long.

In the analog electronic watch 1 of the present embodiment, when switching the sign exposed from the opening 31 and positioned at the display position based on the user operation, the user sets the crown C1 according to the function type related to the switching of the sign. By pulling out one step or two steps and rotating it by a predetermined unit angle, the exposed sign depends on the rotation direction of the crown C1 among the plurality of signs (plural display contents) to be displayed according to the function type. Is changed by one. Further, in the analog electronic timepiece 1, when the rotation of the crown C1 by a unit angle (first input operation) is detected two or more times within a predetermined time, the rotating plate 64 is continuously fast-forwarded (1). (Fast-forward in the second stage), if rotation of the crown C1 at a unit angle is detected in the same direction in this fast-forward state, the process shifts to the second-stage fast-forward. The difference between the first-step fast-forward and the second-step fast-forward will be described later. Control to stop fast-forwarding when it is detected that the crown C1 rotates a unit angle (second input operation) in the direction opposite to the rotation of the unit angle in the first-stage and second-stage fast-forward states. Is done.

In the switching operation of these signs, when the rotating plate 64 is rotated at a high speed (high-speed moving speed), that is, at 400 pps when switching one sign, the rotating plate 64 is rotated when the rotating plate 64 is continuously fast-forwarded. The speed (fast forward movement speed) is slightly reduced compared to the rotation at this high speed. Further, since the rotating plate 64 also contains signs that are not related to the function type being executed, these unrelated signs pass through the display position (including the display state of the display contents that are not displayed). In that case, the rotation speed is not reduced and the rotation speed is increased. That is, in continuous fast-forwarding, a high-speed rotation part and a rotation part at a rotation speed slower than this are mixed, and the average rotation speed (average movement speed) during one cycle of the display of the sign to be displayed is high. It is smaller than the rotation speed and larger than the rotation speed at the part where the rotation speed is lowered.

FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of setting the rotation speed of the rotating plate 64 in the analog electronic clock 1 of the present embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 4A, for example, when the set city is changed from Tokyo (TYO) to Dubai (DXB) in the execution mode of the world clock function (WT), the rotating plate 64 shown in FIG. 2 is initially slow. (P1) or a medium speed (P2) faster than this low speed, fast forward rotation is performed until the sign position of Christmas Island (CXI), which is one end of the arrangement range of the city signs on the rotating plate 64, reaches the display position. The angle from the sign position of this Christmas island to the sign position of Baker Island (BAR), which is the next city sign (that is, the other end of the arrangement range of the city signs), is larger than the angle difference (6 degrees) of one sign. Since there is a difference and signs that are not related to the city setting are arranged, the rotational movement during this period is performed at a higher speed than any of the fast-forward stages (P1, P2). When the sign position of Baker Island reaches the display position, or before a predetermined step (for example, 20 steps) to reach the display position, the rotation speed of the rotating plate 64 is returned to the low speed (P1) or the medium speed (P2) again. Then, the user inputs a stop operation of the fast-forward rotation operation at the timing when the Dubai (DXB) sign reaches the display position or immediately before that (after the sign position of Tehran (THR) immediately before has passed the display position). As a result, fast-forwarding is stopped when the Dubai sign reaches the display position.

As the actual speeds of low speed, medium speed, and high speed set here, low speed and medium speed are set below the upper limit speed at which the user can easily see the exposed sign, whereas at high speed, It is not necessary for the user to be able to see the exposed sign, and the time required for movement can be shortened by setting the maximum speed (400 pps) that can be set according to the stepping motor 84, the rotating plate 64, and the like.

FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing a control procedure by the CPU 41 of the rotary plate operation control process executed by the analog electronic clock 1 of the present embodiment.
This rotary plate operation control process is started when the pull-out operation of the crown C1 is detected and the operation shifts to various setting operations by rotating the rotary plate 64.

When the rotary plate operation control process is started, the CPU 41 acquires information relating to the range in which the sign that can be displayed is arranged (step S101). The CPU 41 refers to the indicator list 423 and reads out the arrangement range of the indicator according to the function type currently in operation.

The CPU 41 determines whether or not the input of a command corresponding to the rotation, pull-out, and push-back operations of the crown C1 is detected (step S102). If it is determined that it has not been detected (“NO” in step S102), the CPU 41 repeats the process of step S102. If it is determined that it has been detected (“YES” in step S102), the CPU 41 determines whether or not the detected instruction is an end instruction for various setting operations (step S103). If it is determined that the instruction is an end (“YES” in step S103), the CPU 41 ends the rotary plate operation control process.

If it is determined that the instruction is not an end command (“NO” in step S103), the CPU 41 sets the direction of rotational movement of the rotating plate 64 according to the direction of the rotational operation of the crown C1 (step S104). The CPU 41 acquires the position of the sign to be displayed next in the rotation direction, and calculates the movement amount for moving the sign to the display position (step S105).

The CPU 41 determines whether or not the acquired instruction is a continuous fast-forward instruction (step S106). The term "continuous fast-forward" as used herein means a fast-forward operation in which the fast-forward operation is continued until the user stops the fast-forward operation without setting in advance to end the fast-forward when a specific sign is moved to the display position. It also includes the case where the rotation speed temporarily becomes zero (pauses). If it is determined that the instruction is not a continuous fast-forward instruction (“NO” in step S106), the CPU 41 makes the drive circuit 51 as fast as possible, that is, at the maximum speed that can be set, by the calculated movement amount of the rotating plate. An instruction to rotate the 64 is output (step S107). Then, the process of the CPU 41 returns to step S102.

When it is determined that the detected command is a continuous fast-forward command (“YES” in step S106), the CPU 41 switches the moving plate to match the display position from the moving source sign to the moving destination sign. It is determined whether or not the rotational movement of 64 is a movement between both ends of the marking range acquired in step S101 (rotational movement between the marking positions at both ends) (step S111). When it is determined that the movement is between both ends (“YES” in step S111), the CPU 41 is set to perform the movement between both ends, that is, the movement of the calculated movement amount at the above-mentioned maximum speed. (Step S115). Then, the process of the CPU 41 proceeds to step S116.

If it is determined that the movement is not between both ends of the marking range (“NO” in step S111), the CPU 41 determines whether or not it is the first-stage fast-forward operation (step S112). When it is determined that the fast-forward operation is the first step (“YES” in step S112), the CPU 41 sets the movement speed of the calculated movement amount to a low speed (step S113). The low speed referred to here is slower than the above-mentioned maximum speed, and is a speed at which the user can sufficiently see the sign in the opening 31. Then, the process of the CPU 41 proceeds to step S116.

When it is determined that the fast-forward operation is not the first-stage fast-forward operation, that is, the fast-forward operation is the second stage (“NO” in step S112), the CPU 41 sets the movement speed of the calculated movement amount to the medium speed. (Step S114). The medium speed referred to here is a speed in a range faster than the above-mentioned low speed and slower than the maximum speed, and is a speed within a range in which a general user can visually recognize the sign in the opening 31. Then, the process of the CPU 41 proceeds to step S116.

When the process of any of steps S113 to S115 shifts to the process of step S116, the CPU 41 outputs a command related to fast-forward movement to the drive circuit 51 in the previous process of step S118, and then detects the input of the fast-forward stop command. It is determined whether or not the circuit has been performed (step S116). If it is determined that it has been detected (“YES” in step S116), the CPU 41 discards the setting made in any of the processes of steps S113 to S115 (step S117), and moves the process to step S102. return. As a result, the rotary plate 64 is stopped when the execution of the fast-forward movement command output in the process of the previous step S118 (or the execution of the movement operation command output in step S107 before the start of fast-forwarding) is completed. To do.

If it is determined that the input of the fast-forward stop command has not been detected (“NO” in step S116), the CPU 41 is instructing the fast-forward operation according to the setting made in any of the processes of steps S113 to S115. Is output to the drive circuit 51 (step S118). If the continuous fast-forwarding of the rotating plate 64 has already started, this output follows the fast-forwarding of the calculated movement amount output in the process of the previous step S118 (if the moving speed changes, the change). Fast forward is made continuously (with). Then, the process of the CPU 41 returns to step S105.

[Modification 1]
FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing a modification 1 of the rotary plate operation control process in the analog electronic clock 1 of the present embodiment.

In this modification 1, the apparent rotation operation of the rotating plate 64 is the same as that of the above embodiment, but the content of the operation control is different. Here, it is set and held in advance that the interval between the signs on the rotating plate 64 is 6 degrees and 40 steps. Further, the number of moving steps between the markers at both ends in the marking range is acquired or calculated at the same time when the marking range is acquired in the process of step S101.
In the rotary plate operation control process of the modification 1, the processes of steps S105 and S117 of the rotary plate operation control process of the above embodiment are omitted and the process of step S119 is added, and steps S107, S111, S113 to S115 are added. , S118 are changed to the processes of steps S107a, S111a, S113a to S115a, and S118a, respectively, and the position of the process of step S116 is changed. The other processes are the same, and the same reference numerals are used for the same process contents, and detailed description thereof will be omitted.

When the process of step S104 is completed, the process of the CPU 41 shifts to step S106. When the process branches to "YES" in the determination process of step S106, the CPU 41 outputs a movement operation command of the number of steps (40 steps) corresponding to the marking interval (6 degrees) to the drive circuit 51 at the set maximum speed (step S107a). .. Then, the process of the CPU 41 returns to step S102.

When the process branches to "NO" in the determination process of step S106, the CPU 41 determines whether or not the movement to the next step position in the rotation direction is outside the marking range to be displayed (step S111a). If it is determined to be outside (“YES” in step S111a), the CPU 41 sets the moving speed to a high speed (step S115a). Then, the process of the CPU 41 shifts to step S118a.

If it is determined that the movement to the next step position is not outside the marking range (“NO” in step S111a), the CPU 41 determines whether or not the first step is fast forward (step S112). If it is determined to be the first step (“YES” in step S112), the moving speed is set to a low speed (step S113a), and then the process is shifted to step S118a. If it is determined that it is not the first step (“NO” in step S112), the CPU 41 sets the moving speed to a medium speed (step S114a) and shifts the process to step S118a.

When the process of any of steps S113a to S115a shifts to the process of step S118a, the CPU 41 rotates to the drive circuit 51 after the time corresponding to the set moving speed elapses from the previous rotational movement operation of the rotating plate 64. A command for rotating and moving the plate 64 by one step is output (step S118a). The CPU 41 determines whether or not the input of the stop command for the rotational movement operation is detected (step S116), and if it is determined that the input is not detected (“NO” in step S116), the processing of the CPU 41 is performed. Return to step S106. If it is determined that it has been detected (“YES” in step S116), the CPU 41 displays the display target sign that reaches the next display position according to the current rotation position and rotation direction of the rotating plate 64. Is output to the drive circuit 51 at the current set speed (that is, at time intervals) until the rotation plate 64 is reached (step S119). Then, the process of the CPU 41 returns to step S102.

That is, in the rotary plate operation control process of the modified example 1, when the rotary plate 64 is fast-forwarded, the movement speed can be changed by discriminating between the inside and outside of the marking range and the fast-forward stage for each rotational movement of one step.

[Modification 2]
Next, a modification 2 of the rotary plate operation control process will be described.
In the rotary plate operation control process of the second modification, as shown in FIG. 4B, in the first-stage continuous fast-forwarding, the fast-forwarding is interrupted for a predetermined time at the timing when each sign to be displayed matches the display position. (Paused). Unless the input operation of the stop command received by the operation receiving unit 47 is detected, this interruption is released after a predetermined time and fast-forwarding is restarted (that is, continuous fast-forwarding is temporary regardless of the operation input. A period of zero rotation speed (pause period) inserted in can be included). Further, contrary to the first modification, the distance between the markers is not limited to a constant value. Therefore, the sign range to be displayed may be further divided into a plurality of blocks and arranged.

Further, in the process of step S105, when fast-forwarding is performed between the markers at both ends of the marking range, it is not necessary to rotate and move in the rotation direction instructed by the user operation (rotational operation of crown C1), for example. When the distance (angle) between the two is small, the rotating plate 64 can be rotationally moved in the direction opposite to the instruction. As shown in FIG. 4C, when the mode of the functional operation is switched, there are six markers indicating the type of the mode, and the array range is 30 degrees, so that the indicator at one end of the array range is displayed. When fast-forwarding from the state where is in the display position to the state where the sign at the other end is in the display position, the fast-forward direction of the rotating plate 64 is reversed and the fast-forward movement is performed at high speed by 30 degrees. In this case, during the reverse movement, the stop control of the rotating plate 64 is not performed due to the detection of the pause or fast forward stop command at the timing when the sign in the middle matches the display position, and the sign at the other end always reaches the display position. Fast forward continues until you do.

FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing a modification 2 of the rotary plate operation control process in the analog electronic clock 1 of the present embodiment.

In the rotary plate operation control process of the second modification, the processes of steps S111 and S113 are replaced with steps S111b and S113b, respectively, with respect to the rotary plate operation control process shown in FIG. 5 in the analog electronic clock 1 of the above embodiment. There is. Further, the processing of steps S112 and S113b is performed after the processing of step S116. Other processes are the same, and the same processing contents are designated by the same reference numerals and detailed description thereof will be omitted.

When branching to "NO" in the determination process of step S106, the CPU 41 determines the absolute value (| movement amount |) of the movement amount until the sign to be displayed next is moved to the display position as the reference step number (here, here). , 40 steps; reference amount) is determined (step S111b). If it is determined that the number of steps is larger than the reference number (“YES” in step S111b), the CPU 41 sets the calculated movement amount to be fast-forwarded at high speed (step S115). Then, the process of the CPU 41 proceeds to step S118.

If it is determined that the number is not greater than (or less than) the reference number of steps (“NO” in step S111b), the CPU 41 sets the calculated movement amount to be fast-forwarded at a medium speed (step S114). Then, the process of the CPU 41 proceeds to step S116.

If it is determined in the determination process of step S116 that the input of the stop command for continuous fast forward is not detected (“NO” in step S116), the CPU 41 determines whether or not continuous fast forward is the first step. Discrimination (step S112). If it is determined to be the first step (“YES” in step S112), the CPU 41 interrupts the fast-forward operation at predetermined time intervals and waits after the completion of the fast-forward operation related to the previous step S118 of the move instruction output. (Step S113b). Then, the process of the CPU 41 proceeds to step S118. If it is determined that it is not the first stage (“NO” in step S112), the processing of the CPU 41 proceeds to step S118.

As described above, in the rotary plate operation control process of the second modification, the rotation speeds are made equal at the medium speed in the first step and the second step of continuous fast forward, while in the first step, the fast forward by one sign is used. A predetermined waiting time is inserted each time the speed is increased so that the fast forward operation is performed intermittently. This waiting time may be any time as long as the user can visually check the displayed contents and input the stop command when he / she wants to stop the fast forward, and it is not necessary to set a long waiting time.

As described above, the analog electronic clock 1 which is the analog display device of the present embodiment has the rotating plate 64, and the display unit 10 whose display (exposed) sign changes when the rotating plate 64 rotates and moves. A CPU 41 that controls the rotational movement of the rotary plate 64 and an operation reception unit 47 that accepts a user's input operation are provided. The CPU 41 includes a rotary plate 64 in response to a first input operation received by the operation reception unit 47. Is rotated by fast-forwarding to display a plurality of signs by the display unit 10 in order, the rotational movement by fast-forwarding is stopped according to the second input operation received by the operation receiving unit 47, and the rotational movement is performed by fast-forwarding. When switching between adjacent signs in the order in which they are displayed, the fast-forward speed of the rotating plate 64 in at least a part of the display is changed by rotating the rotating plate 64 while rotating the display of a plurality of signs. Set to move at a high speed that is larger than the average movement speed.
In this way, when the sign to be displayed matches the display position, that is, when the desired sign can match the display position, the moving speed of the rotating plate 64 is reduced or paused, and the timing does not match the display position. By rotating the rotating plate 64 at a high speed at least in part, it is possible to make it easier for the user to know the sign of the rotating plate 64 that rotates while suppressing an increase in the waiting time of the user, and to make it easier to stop the rotating operation appropriately. You can. Therefore, it is possible to improve the convenience of the user related to the operation of changing the analog display content.

Further, when the moving amount of the rotating plate 64 related to switching between adjacent signs in the display order is larger than a predetermined reference amount (40 steps), the CPU 41 sets the fast-forward speed of the rotating plate 64 at high speed. That is, when the intervals between the signs displayed in order are wide or when other signs are sandwiched between them, these sections are moved at high speed, so that the user does not need to visually recognize the signs. While shortening the time required for movement, if adjacent signs are normally arranged side by side, it is possible to set a low-speed or medium-speed fast-forward speed that is lower than the high-speed movement speed. , The sign can be easily seen by the user.

Further, when the CPU 41 performs a fast-forward operation, if there is a sign that is not to be displayed during switching between adjacent display contents displayed in order, the fast-forward speed of the rotating plate 64 related to the switching is performed. Is set at high speed.
In this way, it is possible to make it difficult for the user to recognize unnecessary signs by not reducing the fast-forward speed while passing a sign that is not to be displayed. In addition, by indicating to the user that there is no stop at the current rotation angle by partially fast-forwarding at high speed in this way, the user pays more attention to the sign on the rotating plate 64 than necessary, or at an unnecessary position. It is possible to prevent the fast-forward stop operation of.

Further, the CPU 41 can rotate and move the rotary plate 64 at a plurality of fast-forward speeds, and the high-speed fast-forward speed is the highest among the plurality of fast-forward speeds.
In this way, by rotating the rotating plate 64 at the maximum speed that can be set in the sign portion that is not the display target, it is possible to reduce unnecessary time as much as possible and decelerate within the required range to make the sign easier for the user to see. ..

Further, the movement speed of the CPU 41 during a period during which the display unit 10 does not move at a higher speed during the fast-forward operation than the set movement speed of the rotating plate 64 when the display switching operation is performed between the two preset signs ( That is, the fast-forward speed of medium speed or low speed) is set small.
In this way, even when the fast-forward movement destination has already been determined and the CPU 41 stops the rotation of the rotating plate 64 at the fast-forward movement destination without requiring the user's operation, the user does not need to visually recognize the sign in the middle. As compared with the case where the user visually recognizes the sign and stops it at a desired rotation position by input operation, the fast-forward movement can be performed at a high speed, that is, in a short time.

Further, the CPU 41 can rotate the rotary plate 64 at a plurality of fast-forward speeds, and the set movement speed is the highest among the plurality of fast-forward speeds. That is, by setting the above-mentioned fast-forward speed as the maximum speed when no user operation is required, the fast-forward time can be appropriately shortened.

Further, the movable portion of the display unit 10 includes a rotating plate 64 provided so as to be rotatable. If the number of operation steps required for laps is larger than that of a normal pointer depending on the capacity of the drive unit such as a stepping motor and the magnitude of torque, such as the rotation operation of the rotary plate 64, the rotation plate 64 is rotated as fast as possible. As a result, the time required for fast-forwarding can be shortened, but as a result, when the fast-forwarding is stopped manually, it tends to be difficult for the user to perform the stop operation at or near the correct position. Therefore, while setting a large rotation speed in the angle range in which the fast-forward movement is not stopped (there is no sign to be displayed), the rotation position where the fast-forward movement can be stopped (the sign to be displayed matches the display position). By lowering the rotation speed in the angle range in and around the area), the convenience of the user can be improved.

Further, a dial 3 covering one surface of the rotating plate 64 is provided, and the dial 3 is arranged on one surface of the rotating plate 64 so as to be exposed from the opening 31 of the dial 3 according to the rotational movement of the rotating plate 64. A plurality of the signs are provided, and the opening 31 is formed so that a part of the plurality of signs can be selectively exposed by the rotational movement of the rotating plate 64.
In this way, by providing a plurality of signs on the rotating plate 64 and exposing only the necessary signs from the opening 31, the area where the unnecessary signs are exposed is reduced, and the reduced range is widely and variously designed. Can be used for. On the other hand, since only a part of the signs is exposed, when the rotating plate 64 is rotated at high speed, it becomes more difficult for the user to see the exposed signs, and even if the signs are rotated at a visible speed, the signs are displayed. Problems such as the need to gaze at the opening 31 until it is exposed and the sign passing through the display position during the time lag between the exposure and the operation of stopping the fast-forward rotation movement are likely to occur. .. Therefore, especially when the fast-forward rotation of the rotating plate 64 is stopped based on the input operation of the user in an analog display device having such a structure, the fast-forward speed in the period in which the fast-forward movement can be stopped is higher than the fast-forward speed in other cases. By setting the speed low, it is possible to make it easier for the user to stop fast-forwarding more appropriately without lengthening the time required for fast-forwarding more than necessary.

Further, the plurality of signs are provided in a predetermined rotation angle range with respect to the rotation axis of the rotation plate 64, and the CPU 41 rotates and moves the rotation plate 64 at a high speed outside the predetermined rotation angle range. That is, when the sign to be selected by the user is not provided in a ring shape over 360 degrees of the rotating plate 64, the rotating plate 64 is fast-forwarded while the non-provided range passes through the display position. Since it is not stopped, fast-forwarding at high speed reduces the increase in fast-forwarding time due to the decrease in rotation speed in order to make it easier for the user to visually recognize the sign to be displayed and perform the rotation stop operation. Can be done.

Further, on the rotating plate 64, a plurality of indicators relating to two or more predetermined number of functional operations, here, a world clock function, an alarm notification function, a battery remaining amount display function, an operation function selection function, and the like are rotated. The CPU 41 is provided in different rotation angle ranges with respect to the rotation axis of the plate 64, and the CPU 41 is outside the rotation angle range provided with a plurality of markers related to the functional operation to be displayed in response to the first input operation. When the rotary plate 64 is rotationally moved, the rotary plate 64 is rotationally moved at high speed.
That is, on the surface of the rotating plate 64, signs related to a plurality of functional operations can be arranged, necessary signs are exposed from the opening 31, and other signs are hidden behind the dial 3. Can be done. When such a rotary plate 64 is fast-forwarded and rotated to stop fast-forwarding at a desired position, the sign is provided when a sign related to a functional operation unrelated to the function being executed passes through the display position. By fast-forwarding and passing through the designated range at high speed, it is possible to reduce the fast-forward time required to pass through the range provided with unnecessary signs, and to make it easier for the user to visually recognize the sign in the required range. Further, by reducing the visibility of unnecessary signs, it is possible to reduce the trouble of searching for a desired sign by gazing at the sign exposed from the opening 31 within a range not necessary for the user.

Further, the CPU 41 suspends the rotary plate 64 for a predetermined time for each display of the sign during the fast-forward operation of the rotary plate 64.
As a result, the user can more reliably visually recognize the sign to be selected and perform an input operation to stop the fast-forward movement at an appropriate timing. Further, since fast-forwarding is not paused at the timing when the sign not to be selected matches the display position, the user does not need to pay attention to the sign exposed from the opening 31 during fast-forwarding, and the sign is not selected. The fast-forward movement is not accidentally stopped when the sign of is in the display position.

Further, the analog electronic clock 1 of the present embodiment includes a timekeeping circuit 46 for counting the current time in addition to the above configuration, and the display unit 10 further includes time pointers 61 to 63 under the control of the CPU 41. It is possible to display the time corresponding to the current time counted by the timekeeping circuit 46.
By applying the present invention to the fast-forward movement operation of the rotary plate 64 included in such an analog electronic clock 1 and adjusting the fast-forward movement speed for each rotation angle range, the time required for the rotation of the rotary plate 64 is longer than necessary. It is possible to recognize the position of a desired sign and easily stop it at the display position without prolonging it. In particular, in a small portable electronic clock such as a wristwatch, the present invention does not expose an unnecessarily large number of signs or uniformly reduce the rotation speed of the rotating plate 64, so that the design range of the electronic clock is wide. Expands, making it easier to achieve both operability and design.

Further, by using the display operation control method of the rotating plate 64 as described above, the time required for the fast-forward operation is not increased more than necessary while enabling the stop command of the fast-forward operation based on the user operation in the analog display easily and appropriately. Therefore, the convenience of the user can be improved.

Further, by storing the program 421 related to the control of the rotating plate operation control process in the ROM 42 and executing it by the CPU 41, the rotating plate 64 can be easily and flexibly rotated based on the user operation without the need for devising a hardware configuration or the like. It is possible to control the operation and improve the convenience of the user.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various modifications can be made.
For example, in the above embodiment, the rotation speed in an angle range other than the display target is set to the maximum speed that can be set, but the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, continuous fast-forwarding due to a problem of power supply or the like. In the case where continuous movement at the maximum speed is difficult, the rotation speed may be slightly reduced and set.

Further, in the modification 2 of the above embodiment, at the sign position to be displayed, the operation of the rotating plate 64 is temporarily stopped in the case of fast-forwarding in the first stage. In this case, the angle of the display target is set. The fast-forward speed may be the same speed for the range and the other ranges without different fast-forward speeds. That is, the fast-forward in the second stage and the fast-forward outside the angle range may be the same. Alternatively, there may be no second-stage fast-forward movement, and only two types, first-stage fast-forward and continuous fast-forward outside the display target angle range, may be set.

Further, in the above embodiment, the rotating plate 64 has a disk shape, and the signs relating to a plurality of functional types are provided in different angle ranges, but the present invention is not limited to this.

FIG. 8 is a front view showing a modified example of the rotating plate 64.
As described above, the rotating plate 64 may have a fan shape or other shape. Further, only a plurality of signs related to a single specific function type may be provided. Even in this case, the present invention can be applied when fast-forwarding is performed between both ends of the angle range in which the sign is provided.

Further, in such a case, the rotating plate 64 does not need to be rotatable 360 degrees, and may be rotatable only in a part of the rotation angle range. In this case, fast-forwarding between the markers at both ends is performed in reverse rotation.

Further, in the above embodiment, the rotary plate 64 provided with the sign is rotated to be exposed from the fixed opening, but the rotary plate provided with the opening is provided with respect to the fixed plate provided with the sign. It may be the one that switches the sign to be exposed by rotating. Further, instead of the rotating plate, an endless curtain may be rotated and moved by a roller or the like. Further, the present invention is not limited to the one provided with a shielding plate that hides other than the sign to be displayed. Further, the invention is not limited to a flat surface with a sign, and even if it is a pointer, the rotation angle per step is particularly small, the number of steps required for orbital movement is large, and high-speed movement is possible. In such cases, the present invention can be applied in the same manner.

Further, in the above embodiment, the rotation speed is increased when the distance between the signs to be displayed is partially wider than the reference amount, but even when the signs are arranged at uniform intervals, the number of signs is small, etc. When each interval is wide, high-speed rotation may be performed so that the rotation speed is not temporarily reduced in a part or an intermediate portion of each interval.

Further, in the above embodiment, the fast-forward speed is uniformly suppressed in the angle range of the display target as compared with the outside of the angle range, but when the number of steps between the signs is large, a part such as near the center between the signs is used. It is also possible to increase the fast-forward speed with.

Further, in the above embodiment, the fast-forward operation of the rotating plate 64 in the city (local time) setting of the world clock in the electronic clock and the selection of the function mode to be executed has been described as an example, but the present invention is not limited to this. .. Display contents on various analog display devices (for example, meters that measure and display various physical quantities) that have a display unit that uses a movable display unit to electronically control the operation of the movable unit and switch the display contents in an analog manner. By manually selecting and stopping while fast-forwarding, by suppressing the fast-forward speed within the range where fast-forwarding can be stopped, compared to the part where the fast-forwarding is not stopped while switching the display contents. , It is possible to make it easy for the user to recognize the sign and stop the fast forward appropriately.

Further, in the above embodiment, the CPU 41 (microcomputer) executes the rotary plate operation control process and outputs a control signal to the drive circuit 51 to control the rotary motion of the rotary plate 64 by software. A part or the like may be made by a dedicated hardware circuit in the drive circuit 51.

Further, in the above description, the ROM 42 which can include the non-volatile memory as a computer-readable medium of the operation processing program 421 such as the rotary plate operation control processing related to the processing operation of the CPU 41 according to the present invention has been described as an example. However, it is not limited to this. As other computer-readable media, HDDs (Hard Disk Drives) and portable recording media such as CD-ROMs and DVD discs can be applied. A carrier wave is also applied to the present invention as a medium for providing data of a program according to the present invention via a communication line.
In addition, specific details such as the configuration, control contents, and procedures shown in the above-described embodiment can be appropriately changed without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
