Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable display of information suitable for angling and hunting by obtaining feeding activity data of living things from synodic diurnal motion data of the moon. CONSTITUTION:The time difference between a point and Greenwich and the longitude are specified to determine an hour angle of the moon at an arbitrary time at the point. Age of the moon is calculated from an elongation of the moon (angle between the sun and moon viewed from the earth) and the period (29.53 days) of synodic month. A moon phase data corresponding to the age of the moon is obtained to determine a number of fish marks data to be displayed from the moon phase data and an hour angle of the moon data at the current time. For example, the most suitable time for angling and hunting is noon or 12 o'clock in the hour angle of the moon at new moon and at full moon and the number of fish marks is 4. As a result, four fish marks are shown on a display section. Noon or 12 o'clock in the hour angle of the moon at the first quarter or the last quarter is the time the second most suitable for angling and hunting and when the requirement is met, three fish marks are shown on the display section.

Further, the flag Fo is a flag that is set (FO=1) by a carry signal when generated every hour, and when this flag Fo is set, the hour angle calculation is executed. Similarly, flag F is a flag that is set (F+ = 1) by a day carry signal generated every day, and when this flag F+ is sent, the moon age calculation is executed.

Register Z is a register that temporarily stores data during calculation, and has a plurality of memory areas Zo...Zfi.

Next, the operation of the embodiment configured as above will be explained.

FIG. 5 is a flowchart illustrating the overall processing content of the embodiment.

The system typically performs the Holt (HA) step S1 in FIG.
LT) state, for example 16) (step S2 for each z
Executes timekeeping processing in units of minutes or less. In this sub-minute time counting process, time is measured in units of 1/16 seconds, seconds, and minutes, and a time carry signal is output when the minute reaches 60 minutes. Then, in the next step S3, it is determined whether or not there is a time carry signal. When the time carry signal is generated, the flag F0 is set to "1" (S4). The reason why the flag F1 is set to "1" is to perform the hour angle calculation of the moon, which will be described later, in units of one hour.

Thereafter, the hourly time measurement process of step S5 is executed. In this hour unit time measurement process, as a result of the minute time measurement process (S2),
If an hour carry signal is generated, 1 is added to the hourly data, and when the added time exceeds 24 o'clock, a day carry signal is further output.

Thereafter, in step S6, it is determined whether or not there is a day carry signal. When the day carry signal is generated, the flag F+
is set to "1" (S7).

The reason why the flag Fo is set to "1" is to perform the moon phase calculation, which will be described later, in terms of the vehicle position per day.

Then, in the next step S8, day, month, day of the week, and year time counting processing is executed. In this day, month, day of the week, and year timekeeping process, if a day carry signal is generated, the day of the week is changed and 1 is added to the daily data. If the addition results in monthly or yearly carry,
Furthermore, the time data is updated on a monthly and yearly basis, and the updated time data is transferred to the time register X of the RAM 9.

When the time counting process is completed as described above, the process proceeds to step S9, and it is determined whether or not the flag Fo is set. If Fo=O, that is, if the hour carry signal is not generated, the process advances to step 316, where the current time data stored in register X is displayed on display section 2.

On the other hand, if F0=1, it is the calculation timing to calculate the hourly lunar hour angle, and the lunar hour angle calculation process of step 310 is executed.

The lunar hour angle calculation process in step SIO will be explained in detail with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

In step 321 of FIG. 6, first, the time stored in register Store in register Zo.

Then, in the next step S22, a variable T for determining the visible right ascension of the moon when Griezzi is fixed is calculated and stored in the register ZI of the RAM 9.

Here, the variable T is the number of days that have passed since 0:00 on January 1, 2000 (Greenwich time: GMT = UT time) divided by the Nilus century (36525 days), year = YE, month = MN. , day = DA, hour unit = HO (and, W = (YE-1900) /4 F = FRAC (W) A = I NT (1461XW) B = = INT ((MN + 7) / 10) C = INT (
1-F) D= I NT (0,44X (MN+ 4.4)
)Z=A+31 XMN+DA+ (B-1)XC-B
When XD+HO/24, the variable T can be expressed by the following formula.

T - (Z -36556,5) /36525 A variable T is calculated from this formula, and the calculated value is stored in register ZI of RAM9.

Next, in step S23, the Griezzi sidereal time at UT=O is determined.

When Y = Z-25012, when it is a Grieczi star, it can be expressed by the following formula.

K=24XFRAC(0,0027379XY)
The Griezzi sidereal time is calculated from the above formula, and the calculated value is stored in the register Z2 of the RAM 9.

Next, in step 324, the visible right ascension of the moon at UT=O is calculated.

α=32084.52539 XT + 14.55441 +0.41925 x COS (477198,86
8x T +44°+0.16358 x COS (
962535,762x T + 166.633 ) +0.08494 x COS (413335,35

T +41゜+0.04389 X COS (8
90534,220x T + 145.700), the visual right ascension of the moon: α(m) is expressed as α(m)=24xFRAC(α/24).

The visual right ascension of the moon at UT=O is calculated from the above formula, and the value is stored in register Z3 of RAM9.

Next, in step S25, from the Grietsgi sidereal time and the moon's apparent right ascension obtained as described above, U at Greenwich is
Calculate the hour angle of the moon at T=O time.

Moon's hour angle: JK can be calculated from the following formula.

K: sidereal time, α(m) Niga's visual right ascension.The hour angle of the moon obtained from the above 2 is stored in register Z4 of RAM9.
Store in.

Since the hour angle of the moon at UT=O in Greenwich on that day has been obtained as described above, the next day's hour angle is calculated.

First, in step S26, the date data of the time stored in register Z1 is incremented by 1 and stored in register Zn, and in the same way as in step S22, a variable T for the next day that has been incremented by 1 is calculated and stored in register Z5 of RAM9. .

Next, in steps 32B and 29, steps S23.
324, calculate Grietzgi sidereal time and the moon's visual right ascension at 0UT=O the next day, and use those values as RA.
Store in registers Z6 and Z7 of M9 (S27.52
8).

Then, in the next step 329, the hour angle of the moon at UT=O in Greenwich on the next day is determined from the Griezzi sidereal time of the next day and the visible right ascension of the moon, and the value is stored in the register Z8 of the RAM 9.

Since the hour angle of the moon on the current day at UT=0 in Greenwich and the hour angle of the moon on the next day have been determined by the above calculation, the lunar diurnal cycle of the moon is then calculated in step S30.

The lunar diurnal cycle is the time from when the moon's hour angle becomes oh until the next time when the moon's hour angle becomes Oh, and indicates the time of one cycle of the moon's diurnal movement.

Then, the lunar diurnal cycle: LNR can be expressed by the following formula.

LNR= Calculate the lunar cycle from the above formula and store the value in register Z9 of RAM9.

FIG. 7 is a chart showing an example of calculation of the lunar diurnal cycle.

For example, the hour angle of the moon at UT=O in Greenwich is 3
．． 8h, and the hour angle of the moon at 0UT=O the next day is 3°1h, then DJK=3.1h-3,8h=-0.7h.

Therefore, the lunar diurnal cycle: LNR can be determined as follows: LNR=576/(-0,7+24)=24.7h.

Returning to FIG. 6, in the next step S31, the time (UT time) when the moon's hour angle becomes 0 o'clock is calculated.

The time when the hour angle is 0 o'clock can be expressed by the following formula.

The time at which the hour angle of the moon becomes 0 o'clock in Greenwich is determined from the above equation, and the value is stored in the register ZlO of the RAM 9.

FIG. 8 is a chart showing an example of calculation at UT when the hour angle is 0 o'clock.

For example, if the hour angle of the moon at UT = 0 is 3.8 h, the time when the hour angle = oh is (24-3 ,8) x (24,7/24) =20.
It can be calculated as 79:00 (20:47).

Returning to FIG. 6, from the time when the hour angle of the moon in Greenwich obtained by the above-mentioned calculation becomes 0 o'clock, the next step S32
Then, calculate the time when the moon's hour angle becomes 0 o'clock at the point being measured or at the specified point.

The time t at which the moon's hour angle becomes 0 o'clock at any point can be found using the following formula.

Substitute the longitude of the point being measured or specified and the time difference from Greenwich into the above equation, find the time when the moon's hour angle becomes 0 o'clock at that point, and store that time in register Z1 of RAM9.
Store in 1.

For example, the time t when the moon's hour angle is 0 o'clock in Tokyo at 139.75° east longitude is the time difference between Tokyo and Greenwich (+9
time) and the lunar diurnal cycle (2
4,7 o'clock), UT time when hour angle = 0 o'clock (20,79 o'clock)
becomes as follows.

t = 20.79 o'clock + 9 o'clock = 20.20 o'clock = 20:12 If the time at which the hour angle of the moon becomes 0 o'clock at any point is found by the above calculation, then in step S33 the current time being measured is determined. Alternatively, the hour angle of the month at the specified time is calculated and stored in register G of the RAM 9.

FIG. 9 is a chart showing an example of calculating the hour angle of the moon at 11:35 in Tokyo.

The lunar diurnal cycle calculated by the above calculation = 24.7 hours,
The time difference (8,6
2 o'clock), the lunar hour angle difference at both times can be determined by proportional calculation.

When calculating the hour angle difference by proportional calculation, the hour angle difference = 24 x 8.
62÷24.7=8.38h. By subtracting this hour angle difference from the moon's hour angle 0h (=24h), it is possible to obtain the moon's hour angle at 11:35, which is 15.62h.

That is, by specifying the longitude of an arbitrary point and the time difference from Greenwich, the hour angle of the moon at that point at an arbitrary time can be easily determined by the above-mentioned calculation.

After completing the moon hour angle calculation in this way, the fifth
At step Sll in the figure, the flag Fo is reset to "0". Then, in the next step S12, it is determined whether the flag F+=1.

When the flag F1=1, that is, when 24 hours have passed and the date has changed, the process advances to step S13 and a moon phase calculation is executed.

FIG. 10 is a detailed flowchart of the moon age calculation in step 313.

First, in step S41, the time stored in the current time register X is converted to Greenwich time based on the time difference with Greenwich stored in register B.

Thereafter, in step S42, the aforementioned variable T is calculated from the Greenwich time.

Next, in step 343, the ecliptic longitude of the moon is calculated from the variable T obtained in step S42 using the following formula.

Moon's visual longitude = 481267.9 x T + 218
．． 3+ 6.3x COS (45+4572000
xT)+1.3xCO3 (11+413300xT) Similarly, in the next step S44, the visible ecliptic longitude of the sun is calculated from the variable T using the following formula.

Sun's visual longitude = 36000.8 XT+280.5+
1.9x COS (268+36000 x T)
In the next step 345, the elongation of the moon is determined from the difference between the ecliptic longitude of the moon and the ecliptic longitude of the sun calculated as described above. The lunar elongation is the angle between the sun and the moon as seen from the Earth, and changes in this elongation change the moon's phase. For example, when the elongation is 0°, it is a new moon, when the elongation is 180°, it is a full moon, and when the elongation is 2
When the angle is 70°, it is a waning moon.

Next, in step S46, the lunar age is calculated from the lunar elongation and the period of the lunar month. In this embodiment, the period of the moon's lunar month is an average of 29.53 days, and the age of the moon at Greenwich time is calculated by proportional calculation from the period and the elongation of the moon calculated each day. The time difference between that point and Greenwich is then used to determine the age of the moon at that point.

In other words, the age of the moon at any point can be expressed as the following 2.

FIG. 16 is a chart illustrating the relationship between the moon phase, the elongation of the moon, and the moon age determined by the moon age calculation described above.

If the difference between the ecliptic longitude of the moon and the ecliptic longitude of the sun calculated by the above calculation (moon elongation) is in the range of 0° to 22.5°, for example, the lunar age is 0 depending on the elongation. The value will be any value in the range of .0 to 1.8 days, and the moon age data obtained at this time will be stored in RAM.
Write to register 9. A moon age of 0.0 to 1.8 days corresponds to a new moon.

Similarly, the elongation of the moon is, for example, 157.5° to 202.5°.
', the moon's age is 13 depending on the elongation at that time.
．． The value will be any value in the range of 0 to 16.6 days, and the moon age determined at this time will be written into register E. Moon age 13.0-1
6.6 corresponds to a full moon.

The same applies when the elongation is in other angular ranges, and the relationship between the elongation, the moon age, and the moon phase calculated by calculation is the 16th angle.
As shown in the diagram in fig.

Returning to FIG. 5, if the moon phase calculation is completed, step S14
, and reset the data flag F1 to O.

After the completion of step 314, or when flag F=O in the determination of step S12, step S
Proceed to step 15 to execute a phishing operation.

Phishing calculation is to obtain feeding activity data indicating the feeding activity of animals (for example, data indicating the degree of feeding activity of fish or animals) from the moon phase and the moon's hour angle, and and determine whether or not it is a suitable time for hunting, and display the four fish mark indicators 2f on the display section 2 to indicate whether or not it is suitable for hunting.
This is a calculation for displaying.

FIG. 11 is a flowchart showing the contents of the phishing calculation in step S15.

First, in step STI, the moon phase data corresponding to the moon age obtained by the above-mentioned moon age calculation is obtained, and the moon phase data and the moon phase data at the current time at the point during time measurement obtained by the above-mentioned moon hour angle calculation are obtained. Fish mark number data to be displayed is obtained from the hour angle data and stored in one of the registers Z.

Then, in the next step ST2, the numerical value obtained in the above step STI is stored in a register N in the RAM 9 that stores the number of displayed fish marks. For example, if the current time is the most suitable time for fishing and hunting, a value "4" is written in the register N, and if the current time is the second most suitable time, a value "3" is written in the register N.

FIG. 17 shows the result of the above-mentioned phishing operation on the display section 2.
2 is a chart showing the relationship between the number of fish marks displayed on the screen and the moon phase and hour angle of the moon.

For example, when it is a new moon or a full moon and the moon's hour angle is 0 o'clock or 12 o'clock, it is the most suitable time for fishing and hunting, and the value obtained by the calculation in step STI is "4", which is registered in step ST2. "4" is written in N. As a result, four fish marks are displayed on the display section 2 by the display process of step 316 in FIG. 5, which will be described later.

Also, when the moon's hour angle is 6 o'clock or 18 o'clock with a new moon or full moon, or when the moon's hour angle is 0 o'clock or 12 o'clock with a waxing or waning moon.
The hour is the second most suitable time for fishing and hunting, and when the moon phase and hour angle of the moon match the above conditions, "3" is written in register N. As a result, three fish marks are displayed on the display section 2.

Furthermore, if it is a new moon or a full moon, the hour angle of the moon is 0 o'clock, 12 o'clock, or 6 o'clock.
When the time is other than 6:00 p.m., it is the third most suitable time for fishing and hunting, and "2" is written in the register N, and two fish marks are displayed on the display section 2.

Similarly, as shown in Figure 17, the number of fish marks is determined based on the moon phase and hour angle of the moon at that time, and the number of fish marks determines whether the time is suitable for fishing and hunting. Is displayed.

Therefore, from the number of displayed fish marks, it is possible to easily know the suitable time for fishing and hunting during time measurement (or at a designated point).

Returning to FIG. 5, once the phishing calculation in step 315 is completed, display processing in step S16 is then executed. In this display process, various data obtained by the above-described time measurement process, lunar hour angle calculation, lunar age calculation, and phishing calculation are displayed.

The contents of the display process in step S16 will be explained in detail with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

First, in step 351, it is determined whether the value of mode register M is 0 or not. If the time display mode is M=O,
In the next step 352, the time data stored in the current time register X is transferred to the display register A4.

Furthermore, in the next step S53, moon phase data to be displayed is calculated from the moon phase data stored in the register and stored in the display register AI.

In this embodiment, the moon phase is displayed in nine stages, and it is determined from the moon age data which of the nine stages the moon phase corresponds to, and the corresponding moon phase indicator 2a is designated "1 to 9". The numerical data is written to the display register A+ together with the moon phase data. For example, when the moon phase data is in the range of 0.0 to 1.8 days, the first moon phase indicator 2a representing the new moon
To light up +, write the numerical value "1" to the display register A1.

In the next step S54, from the hour angle data stored in the register G, the hour angle display body 2 of the display section 2 from 0 to 23 o'clock
Data specifying one of C is written to display register A2.

For example, if the hour angle of the month stored in the register G is 0 o'clock, the numerical value "0" is written in the display register A2, and the hour angle display 2 located above the printed numerical value "0"
c lights up. Thereafter, as the hour angle data changes, sequentially incremented numerical values are written in the display register A2, and the bar-shaped hour angle display body 2C lights up sequentially in a clockwise direction.

Furthermore, in the next step S55, as a result of the above-mentioned phishing calculation, the number of lighted fish mark display bodies 2f is determined from the fish mark number data stored in the register N, and the data is written in the display register A3.

Then, in the next step S56, the display register A
+ , Az , A3 The display portion 2 displays the moon phase data, hour angle data, fish mark data, and time data stored in A4.

If M=O in the mode determination in step S51, the process advances to step S57 and it is determined whether the mode register M is "1".

If it is the correction mode where M=1, then in the next step 358 it is determined whether the value of the register P is P=0 to 5. P=O
- 5, one digit of the month, date, day of the week, hour, minute, or second is the digit to be corrected, and step 3
59, the current time register X month, day, day of the week, hour, minute,
The second data is transferred to the display register A4 and the digit to be corrected is displayed blinking.

In the determination at step 358, if P=O-5, it is then determined at step S60 whether P=6. P
If =6, the year digit is the digit to be corrected, and in step 361, the month, day, day of the week, and year data in the current time register X are transferred to the display register A4 and displayed.

Further, in the determination at step S60, if P=6, the process proceeds to step 362. In other words, when P = 7.8 or 9, it is time to set the time difference from Greenwich, longitude, and latitude of the point where you want to know the monthly data.

Display the time difference, longitude, and latitude data of D.

Further, if M=1 is not determined in step 357, it is determined that the display mode for sunrise/sunset times of M=2 is mode, and the process proceeds to step S63, where "1" is set in the display register Ao.

Then, in the next step 364, moon phase data for display is calculated from the moon age data in register E, and the data is transferred to display register AI.

Furthermore, in the next step 365, based on the date data and time difference data, sunrise and sunset time data for the area with the time difference is read out from the ROMII and displayed in the display register A.
4 and display those data.

Returning to FIG. 5, when any key is operated in the bolt state of step S1, the process proceeds to key processing of step S17.

This key processing will be explained in detail based on the flowchart of FIG.

First, in step S71, it is determined whether or not the 1 key has been operated. If the K1 key was operated, it is determined in the next step 372 whether the value of the mode register M is "0". If M=O, it means that the Kl key was operated in the time display mode, and the next step S
In step 73, register P is set to "0". The reason for setting r□ in the register P here is to start the correction target digit from the seconds digit of P=0 when switching to the correction mode.

Furthermore, in the next step 374, the mode register M is set to “1”.
” to switch the operation mode from time display mode to correction mode.

Further, if M=O is not determined in step S72, the process proceeds to step S75 and it is determined whether M=1. M
If =1, it means that the 1 key is operated in the correction mode, and in the next step 76, the above-mentioned lunar hour angle calculation, lunar age calculation, and phishing calculation are executed. Then, in the next step S77, the mode register M is set to "0" to switch from the correction mode to the time display mode.

Here, when switching from correction mode to time display mode, moon hour angle, moon age, fishing calculations, etc. are performed because information such as time, time difference, longitude, latitude, etc. may be corrected in correction mode. This is to calculate the moon phase, moon hour angle data, etc. based on the new information set at that time.

If it is determined in step S71 that the operation is not a 1-key operation, the process proceeds to step 378, where it is determined whether or not the operation is a 2-key operation. If the K2 key is operated, proceed to the next step 378.
Then, it is further determined whether the value of the mode register M is "0" or not, and if M=O, "2" is set in the register M in the next step S79, and the mode is switched to the sunset time display mode on the 87th day of the day.

Further, if M=O is not determined in step 378, then in step S80, the value of mode register M is set to "2".
”. If M=2, the next step S
At step 81, register M is set to "0" and the mode is switched to time display mode.

FIG. 14 is a diagram showing the transition of the display state when the above-mentioned 1 key and 2 key are operated.

As shown in the figure, in the mode where M=0 or M=1, the time display mode and correction mode can be alternately switched by pressing the K1 key. For example, in the time display mode, along with the date, day of the week, and time, the phase of the moon at that point, the hour angle of the moon, and any fish mark data are displayed.

In addition, in the mode where M=0 or M=2, the K2 key can be used to alternately switch between the time display mode and the sunset time display mode on the 87th day of the day. For example, in the sunrise/sunset time display mode, the sunset mark display 2b lights up on the 87th of the day, and the dot display 2g of the display section 2 displays the moon age (in FIG. The moon age (22.4 days) is displayed on the upper segment display 2h, and the sunrise time (5:25 p.m.) is displayed on the upper segment display 2h, and the sunset time (8:03 p.m., 3:05 p.m.) is displayed on the lower segment display 21. .

Returning to FIG. 12, if it is determined in step 378 that the operation is not the 2nd key, the process proceeds to step S82 and it is determined whether or not the 3rd key is being operated.

If the operated key is 3, proceed to step 38.
3, determine whether the value of mode register M is "1",
If it is M-4, register P is incremented at step 384.

That is, in the correction mode, the correction digit can be advanced to the next one by operating the K1 key.

Further, if it is determined in step S82 that the 3rd key is not operated, the process proceeds to step 385 and it is determined whether the 4th key is operated.

If the operated key is 4, it is determined in step S86 whether the value of the mode register M is "l", and M=1.
If so, in the next step 389, the data of the correction digit designated by register P is corrected.

Furthermore, if it is determined in step S85 that the 4 key has not been operated, then the K5 key or the 6 key has been operated;
Proceeding to step S90, other key processing is executed.

FIG. 15 is a display state diagram showing an example of time correction and input of time difference, longitude, and latitude in the correction mode. When you switch from time display mode to correction mode by operating the 1 key, the date, day of the week, and time are displayed as shown in Figure 15 (1), and first the second digit is displayed blinking, allowing you to correct the second digit. becomes.

Thereafter, each time the K3 key is operated, the correction digits advance sequentially through the minute digit, hour digit, day digit, month digit, and day of the week digit, and each digit blinks, allowing correction using the 4 key. If the 3 key is operated again in this state, the year data will be displayed blinking in the digit where the second data was displayed, as shown in FIG. 15 (2), and the data in the year digit can be corrected.

If you press the 3 key again in this state, the letters rGMTJ will blink on the dot display 2g, the segment display 2h to the right will also blink, and you can press the K4 key to
The time difference with MT can be input. Figure 15 (3) shows G
This shows the display state when the time difference between MT and New York Daylight Saving Time -4 hours is input.

Furthermore, when the K3 key is operated, the character rLo indicating the longitude is displayed blinking on the dot display 2g, and the segment display 21 at the lower right also blinks, making it possible to input the longitude. FIG. 15 (4) shows a display example when the longitude of New York, 74° east longitude, is input.

Furthermore, when the K3 key is operated, the letters rLR representing the latitude on the dot display 2g are blinking, and the segment display 2h on the right is blinking, making it possible to input the latitude. FIG. 15 (5) shows an example display when the latitude of New York is input at 41°.

The above-mentioned latitude and latitude data are corrected in units of 1" every time the four keys are pressed. Therefore, when fishing or the like in the vicinity of New York, accurate moon hour angle data at that location can be obtained.

Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described.

The second embodiment also applies the present invention to an electronic wristwatch, and its appearance, internal circuit configuration, and display section configuration are the same as those in FIGS. 1, 2, and 3 of the first embodiment. Same as shown. Hereinafter, the same reference numerals will be used for the components described in the first embodiment, and detailed explanation will be omitted.

This example uses a world clock that can display the time in each city in the world, and when a city name is selected, the moon phase and hour angle of the moon at the current time in that city are displayed, and the time is also suitable for fishing, etc. Whether it is time or not is displayed by the number of fish marks.

According to this embodiment, by selecting each city, the location information of each city is automatically set in the register, and by further modifying the set location information, the location information of any point can be easily input. It can be made possible.

The present embodiment will be described below with reference to the drawings.

First, Figure 18 shows the RAM 9 of this embodiment (see Figure 2).
FIG. 2 is a configuration diagram of a register.

In the figure, a register Ao stores moon phase data indicating which of the nine moon phase indicators 2a is to be lit. The register AI stores data indicating which display of the hour angle display 2c representing the hour angle of the month from 0:00 to 23:00 is to be lit.

The register A2 stores data indicating which of the four fish mark display bodies 2f is to be lit (one or more) or whether all the fish marks are to be unlit.

Further, the register A3 temporarily stores data to be displayed on the dot matrix display 2g and the segment displays 2h and 21.

These registers Ao, A+, A2, and A3 constitute a display register A.

Furthermore, the city name counter Y is a counter that is sequentially incremented when 2 (described later) is operated on the city name selection key. The current time, time difference with Greenwich, longitude, latitude, etc. of the city corresponding to the value determined by this counter Y are stored in current time register X1 and time difference register B, respectively.
, longitude register C1, latitude register D, etc.

FIG. 21 is a chart showing data for each city in the world stored in the data ROM (read-only memory corresponding to data ROMII in FIG. 2) built into the world clock of this embodiment.

This data ROM stores in order the time difference, city name code, longitude, and latitude data of each city in the world, each having a one-hour time difference with respect to Greenwich. Furthermore, in the figure, where the city name is blank, there is no city corresponding to a point with a one-hour time difference.

For example, the location information of Honolulu with a time difference of "-10 hours" from Greenwich is longitude, W (west longitude) 158°, latitude +2
1° is memorized. The time difference with Honolulu is "1 hour"
Anchorage data is stored as a city in
Time difference "-9 hours" and location information, longitude, W150°
, latitude, and +61° are stored.

Below, the location information of each city with a one-hour time difference and the time difference with respect to Greenwich are stored.

Next, the operation of the embodiment configured as above will be explained.

FIG. 19 is a flowchart illustrating the contents of key processing.

When any key is operated, first in step 5Tll it is determined whether the operated key is the 1 key. If it is the Kl key that has been operated, it is determined in step 5T12 whether the value of the mode register M is rQJ.

If it is M-0, "0" is set in the register P specifying the correction digit in step 5T13, and the correction digit is switched to the first seconds digit. Furthermore, in step 5T14, the mode register M is set to "1" to switch to the correction mode.

On the other hand, if it is not M-0 in the mode determination at step 5T12, the process proceeds to step 5T15 and it is determined whether M=1. If M=1, that is, when the Kl key is operated in the correction mode, the position information etc. may have been changed, so proceed to step 5T16 and execute the moon hour angle calculation, moon age calculation, and phishing calculation. . The contents of these calculations have been explained in detail in the first embodiment, so they will not be specifically explained here.

Then, in the next step 5T17, the mode register M is set to "0" and switched to the time display mode.

If it is determined in step 5TII that the operation is not a 1-key operation, the process proceeds to step 5T18, where it is determined whether or not the operation is a 2-key operation. If the operated key is 2, the value of the mode register M is set to "0" in step 5T19.
”.

If M=O, the city name counter Y is incremented in the next step 5T20, and then in step ST2
1, one hour is added to the time data of the current time register X.

Then, in the next step 5T22, the time difference, longitude, and latitude data for Greenwich, the city newly designated by the city name counter Y, are read from the data ROM,
Store in registers B and C1D of RAM9.

After that, proceed to step 5T23 to obtain monthly data for the new city selected by operating the K2 key.
Executes moon hour angle calculation, moon age calculation, and phishing calculation.

That is, the K2 key is a key for sequentially selecting cities displayed on the display section 2 in the time display mode. By operating the 20 to 2 keys, you can display the current time of each city in the world with a one-hour time difference, the moon phase, the moon's hour angle, and the number of fish marks that indicate whether the time is suitable for fishing, etc. etc. can be displayed.

Also, at this time, positional information such as time difference, longitude, latitude, etc. of each city necessary for calculation of lunar hour angle, lunar age, etc. is set in the register of the RAM 9.

If it is determined in step 5T18 that the 2nd key has not been operated, the process advances to step ST24 and then it is determined whether the 3rd key has been operated.

If the key 3 has been operated, it is further determined in step 5T25 whether the value of the mode register M is "1". If M=1, in the next step ST26, register P is incremented to advance the corrected digit to the next one.

In other words, the K3 key is a key for sequentially advancing the correction digits in the correction mode, and selects each digit of the year, month, hour, minute, second, longitude, latitude, etc. displayed on the display section 2 to correct the time. Also, longitude and latitude data can be corrected.

If it is determined in step 5T24 that the 3rd key has not been operated, the process proceeds to step ST27, where it is determined whether the 4th key has been operated. If the operated key is 4, in step 5T28, the value of mode register M is further changed to "
1”.

When the 4 key is operated in the correction mode with M=1, a process for correcting the data of the correction digit designated by the register P is performed in step 5T29.

Further, if it is determined in step ST27 that the 4 key has not been operated, it means that the K5 key or the 6 key has been operated, and the process proceeds to step ST30 to execute other key processing.

Next, FIG. 20 is a flowchart illustrating the content of display processing in this embodiment.

First, in step ST31, it is determined whether the value of mode register M is "0".

If the time display mode is M=O, the process advances to step 5732, where the year, month, hour, and minute data are read out from the current time register X of the RAM 9, and the city name code corresponding to the value of the city name counter Y is stored in the data ROM. , and transfer those data to display register A3.

Then, in the next step 5T33, the moon phase is determined from the moon age data, and moon phase data specifying which moon phase indicator is to be lit is calculated and written into the display register Ao.

Similarly, in step 5T34, data specifying which hour angle indicator is to be lit is calculated from the hour angle data and written into the display register AI.

Further, in step ST35, data specifying the number of fish marks to be displayed is obtained from the number of fish marks to be displayed stored in the register N, and is written to the display register A2.

Then, in step ST36, display register Ao
, A+, Az, A3, the moon phase, moon hour angle, number of fish marks, current time, etc. are displayed on the display section 2.

On the other hand, if M=0 is not determined in step ST31, it is determined that the correction mode is M=1, and the process proceeds to step 5T37, where it is determined whether the value of register P is "0 to 5".

If P=any of O~5, month, day, hour, minute, second,
When any one display digit of the city name is a correction digit,
In step 5T38, these data are transferred to the display register A3 and each data is displayed.

If P≠0 to 5 in the determination at step ST37, the process proceeds to step ST39 and determines whether P=6. When P=6, the year digit is a correction digit, and in step ST40, the month, day, city name, and year data are transferred to the display register A3, and these data are displayed.

Furthermore, if P≠6, P=7.8.9, and any one of the display digits of time difference, longitude, and latitude is a correction digit, and the process proceeds to step 5T41, where the data to be corrected is (GMT, LOSLA) and register B,
Display CSD time difference, longitude, and latitude data in register A3.
The correction digit will be displayed blinking.

FIG. 22 is a diagram showing an example of the display state of this embodiment.

For example, if you press the 2 key while the current time in Chicago is displayed, the date and current time in New York, which has a one-hour time difference from Chicago, will be displayed.
0 seconds'', the moon phase, the hour angle of the moon, and the number of fish marks (in this case, the number of fish marks is 1) at that time in New York are displayed. From this number of fish marks, it can be seen that the current time in New York is not a very suitable time for fishing and hunting.

If the 2 key is operated while the time in New York is displayed, the time in Caracas, which has a one hour time difference from New York, and the number of fish marks, etc. will be displayed.

In this manner, by operating the K2 key, the current time, moon phase, hour angle of the moon, and fish marks indicating whether the time is suitable for fishing, hunting, etc. in each city around the world are sequentially displayed.

In addition, if the actual point you want to know the monthly data for is a point other than the displayed city, you can select a nearby city and correct the location information of that city to check the current time at that point. Data indicating whether it is a suitable time for fishing etc. can be displayed.

For example, if the point you want to know is near New York, first display the current time in New York, then press the 1 key to switch to correction mode. Then, by correcting a part of the New York latitude, longitude, or time difference data displayed at that time, the position information of the desired point can be easily input.

Similarly, from the location information of each city in the world shown in Figure 21, it is possible to easily input the location information of other arbitrary points, and the hour angle of the moon at the arbitrary point and the time can be used for fishing and hunting. You can easily know whether it is the right time for such things.

As described above, according to the first and second embodiments, feeding activity data is obtained from the moon phase and the moon's hour angle at any point on the earth, and for example, the current time at that point can be used for fishing or hunting. You can easily know whether it is a suitable time or not.

Furthermore, in the first and second embodiments, the time at an arbitrary point is converted to Greenwich time, the monthly data at Greenwich is first obtained, and the monthly data at an arbitrary point is obtained from that monthly data. The effect of simplifying the arithmetic processing can be obtained.

Therefore, it is possible to easily calculate and display the hour angle data of the moon at any point on the earth, for example, from the time difference with Greenwich and position information such as longitude and latitude data.

Furthermore, according to the second embodiment, it is possible to easily know the current time in each city in the world and the suitable time for fishing, hunting, etc. in that city. Moreover, since the stored longitude, latitude, etc. of each city can be used as position information of points in the vicinity, the input operation becomes extremely simple.

Furthermore, in the above example, the current time at that point is
We are trying to display whether it is a suitable time for fishing, hunting, etc., but we calculate the date and time when the conditions are suitable for fishing and hunting by calculation, and then display the date and time when the conditions are most suitable for fishing and hunting, etc.
The second most suitable date and time may be displayed.

Although the above embodiment has been described for the case where it is applied to an electronic wristwatch, the present invention is not limited to this, and may be incorporated into a small electronic calculator, data bank, scheduler, IC card, etc.
Of course, it may also be a dedicated device that displays times suitable for fishing, hunting, etc.

In the above embodiment, the current time data is used as the time data, and the position information is set using the 4 keys, but the time data and It is also possible to input position information, perform various calculations based on the input data, and display information such as the fishing status.

Furthermore, the calculation timing of the moon age, hour angle, etc. is not limited to the daily position or hourly unit as in this embodiment, but may be calculated at shorter time intervals, for example, every minute. You may also calculate the angle.

Further, the display of the hour angle data is not a graphic display as in this embodiment, but may be a digital display of hours and minutes, for example.

〔Effect of the invention〕

According to the present invention, it is possible to easily know when it is suitable for fishing, hunting, etc. at any location, and it is possible to provide a display device useful for fishing, hunting, etc.
