Abstract

PURPOSE:To display information suitable for angling and hunting by determining the propriety of hunting by computation based on data of age of the moon and moon phase and hour angle information obtained when an hour angle of the moon reaches a specified value to display the resulting information. CONSTITUTION:A data is calculated to indicate a angling condition of fish from age of moon data and hour angle data at noon, 6, 12 and 18 o'clock. For example, at new moon with an age of the moon of 0-1 and 8 and 27.7-29.5 at noon and 12 o'clock in hour angle or at full moon with that of 13-16, fish can be angled the most and to the effect, data for indicating all of four fish mark display bodies are stored into a register. When a data is given as indicating the age of the moon presenting first or last quarter, data are stored for displaying three fish mark display bodies to the effect that this is the time of angling the second most. Likewise, a data for display is stored corresponding to the hour angle and age-of-the-moon data. Then, for example, on June 26th, 55 minute past 6 o'clock is noon in the hour angle and the age of the moon is 22.4 and the moon phase is the last quarter. Hence, the second best fishing time is displayed (by lighting three fish marks).

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to a hunting information display device that can provide information suitable for fishing, hunting animals, etc., that is, hunting.

[Prior art and its problems]

It has long been known that the movement of the moon affects the feeding activities of various animals, including fish. It's a good experience.

However, as a device for displaying the movement of the moon, an analog clock that displays the time with hands is equipped with a moon phase or moon phase display board that rotates once every 29.5 days to display the moon's grooves and wanings. There are known watches that do this. In addition, based on the idea that the phase of the moon affects the tides, there is also a device that stores tidal data in various places in a memory and calculates and displays the ebb and flow times based on this tidal data. For example, it is described in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 81-202182.

However, with the analog clock equipped with the moon phase display board mentioned above, you can only know the phase of the moon on that day.
In addition, in the case of displaying tidal times as in the above publication, tidal data for each region is required to calculate the tidal times, and a memory must be provided to store the tidal data for each region. Not only does it have shortcomings such as not being accurate, but it merely displays the time of ebb and flow of the tide, and the user has to judge the quality of fishing etc. based on his or her own opinion based on the time of ebb and flow of the tide. There wasn't.

FIG. 5 shows an overall flowchart of the excitation of the circuitry system shown in FIG. The system is usually fifth
It is in a standby (HALT) state in step S1 in the figure, and executes a time measurement process in step S2 in units of minutes or less at a time measurement timing of, for example, every 16 Hz. 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 F is set in the next step S4. Set "1" to "1". Flag F here. The reason why ``1'' 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 hourly timekeeping process, if an hour carry signal is generated as a result of sub-minute timekeeping processing, 1 is added to the hourly data,
When the added time exceeds 24 hours, 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, step S7
Set flag F to "1".

The reason why the flag F1 is set to "1" is to perform the lunar age 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 C of the RAM 1B.

When the time counting process is completed as described above, the process advances to step S9 and flag F is set. Determine whether or not is set. If Fo"0, that is, if the time carry signal has not been generated, the process proceeds to display processing in step 315, and various data are displayed on the display unit 2 according to the value stored in the register M1N.

On the other hand, F in step S9. If =1, it is determined that it is the calculation timing to calculate the hourly lunar hour angle, and the lunar hour angle calculation process is executed in the next step S10.

The lunar hour angle calculation process in step 810 will be explained in detail with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

In step 821 of FIG. 6, first, the current time measured by the above-mentioned time measurement process and stored in register C is
Convert to Greenwich time based on the time difference data stored in register B5, and store the Greenwich time in RAM1B
Store it in register 2°.

Then, in the next step S22, a variable t for determining the Grietzian sidereal time, the visible right ascension of the moon, etc. is calculated and stored in RAM1.
B's register t. Store in.

Here, the variable t is the elapsed date from 0:00 on January 1, 2000 (Greenwich time: GMT = UT time) divided by the Nilus century (36,525 days), year = YE, month = MN. , Let mortar = DA, time = HO, then W = (YE-1900) /4 F = FRAC (W) A = INT (1461XW) B = INT ((MN + 7) / 10) C = INT
(1-F) D= I NT (0,44X (MN+4.4)
)Z=A+3 1XMN+DA+ (B-1)XC-
When BXD+HO/24, the variable t can be expressed by the following formula.

t = (Z - 3G55G, 5) /38525 The variable t is calculated from this formula, and the calculated value is stored in the register z1 of the RAM 18.

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) Calculate the Grietszi sidereal time from the above formula and store the calculated value in RAM
18 register Z2.

In step S24, the visible right ascension of the moon at UT=O is calculated.

41+ 0.41925X COS (477198

0.07104X COS (1934, 140X
T+ 324.980)+ 0.07048X COS
(964469,900X T + 41.590
) + 0.04389X COS (890534,
220X T+ 145.700), the visual right ascension of the moon: α(m) is expressed as a(m)=24XFRAC(α/24).

The visual right ascension of the moon at the time of UT=O is calculated from the above formula, and the value is stored in the register z3 of the RAM 1B.

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 formula is in the register z of RAM16.
Store in 4.

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 828, register 2. The date data - evening of the time stored in is incremented by 1 and stored in the register Zn, and in the same way as in step S22, the variable t of the next day which has been incremented by 1 is calculated and stored in the register Z5 of the RAM 1B.

Next, in steps 828 and 29, steps 823 and 29, respectively,
In the same way as S24, calculate the Grietzgi sidereal time and the moon's visual right ascension at UT=O the next day, and use these values as RA.
Store in registers zo and z7 of M16.

Then, in the next step S29, 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 16.

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 830.

The lunar diurnal cycle is the time from when the moon's hour angle becomes 0h (0 o'clock) 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. There is.

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

The lunar cycle is determined from the above equation and the value is stored in the register Z8 of the RAM 16.

FIG. 7 is a chart showing an example of calculation of the lunar diurnal cycle in an easy-to-understand manner.

For example, the hour angle of the moon at UT=O in Greenwich is 3
．． 8h, and the hour angle of the moon at UT=O the next day is 3.1h, then DJ K=3.1h-3, 8h knee 0.7h.

Therefore, the lunar diurnal cycle: LNR = 576/ (-0,7+24) = 2
It can be calculated as 4.7 hours.

Returning to FIG. 6, in the next step 831, the time (UT time) when the moon's hour angle is 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 zIo of the RAM 16.

FIG. 8 is a chart showing in an easy-to-understand manner the 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, then from the lunar diurnal period = 24.7 h determined in Figure 7,
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 t2 at which the moon's hour angle becomes 0 o'clock at an arbitrary point is determined by the following formula.

Substitute the longitude of the point being measured or specified and the time difference of Greenwich into the above formula, find the time when the moon's hour angle becomes 0 o'clock at that point, and store that time in the register Zll of RAM 16.
Store in.

For example, the time t2 when the moon's hour angle is 0 o'clock in Tokyo at 139.75" east longitude is the time difference (+8
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.

-20, 20 o'clock = 20 o'clock! If the time at which the hour angle of the moon becomes 0 o'clock at an arbitrary point is determined by calculations that take more than 2 minutes, then in step S33, the current time being measured, that is, the register Z. The hour angle of the month at the time stored in is calculated and stored in register S of RAM 1B.

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

Calculated by the above calculation, the lunar diurnal cycle = 24.7 o'clock and the time when the moon's hour angle becomes oh in Tokyo = 20:12
The lunar hour angle difference is determined by proportional calculation from the time difference between the minute and the current time to be determined, which is 11:35.

Hour angle difference = 24X 8. l1i2÷24.7=8.3
8h 1. If this hour angle difference is subtracted from Oh (=24h), the moon's hour angle at 11:35 is = ts, e
zh can be found.

That is, by specifying the longitude of an arbitrary point and the time difference from Greenwich time, the hour angle of the moon at an arbitrary point and 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, flag F is set. is reset to "0". Then, in the next step S12, it is determined whether the flag F1=1.

If flag F1=0, the process proceeds to display processing in step S15, but if flag F1=1, that is, when 24 hours have elapsed and the date has changed, the process proceeds to step 813 to execute moon age calculation.

FIG. 10 is a detailed flowchart of the moon phase calculation in step S13. First, in step S41, the time stored in the current time register C is converted to Greenwich time based on the time difference with the Greenwich time stored in register B.

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

Next, in step S43, the ecliptic longitude of the moon is calculated using the following formula from the variable t obtained in step S42.

Moon's visual longitude = 4812G7.9X t + 218.
3+ 6.3X COS (45+ 4572000X
t)+1.3X COS(II+4+330
0X t ) 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 = 3BOQ0.8X T + 280.
5+ 1.9X COS (268+ 36OOOX
T) From the difference between the ecliptic longitude of the moon and the ecliptic longitude of the sun calculated as described above, the elongation of the moon is determined in the next step S45. 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 O0, the new moon, when the elongation is 180'', the groove row,
When the elongation is 270@, it is a waning moon.

Next, in step 84E3, lunar age data is calculated from the above-mentioned lunar elongation and the period of the lunar month, and is stored in the register R. In this example. The period of the lunar lunar month is an average of 29.53 days, and the age of the moon at Greenwich time is calculated by proportional calculation from that period and the elongation of the moon calculated each day. Then, the age of the moon at that point is determined using the time difference between that point and Greenwich time. That is, the age of the moon at any point can be expressed by the following formula.

FIG. 11 is a chart for explaining the relationship between the moon's elongation and the moon's age obtained by the above-mentioned moon's age calculation, the data, and the displayed moon phase.

If the difference between the ecliptic longitude of the moon and the ecliptic longitude of the sun determined by the above calculation (moon elongation) is in the range of 00 to 22.5 degrees, then the lunar age will be O3O to 1 depending on the elongation. .8 days, and the moon age data obtained at this time is stored in RAM1.
Write to register R of B. Moon age 090 to 1.8 days corresponds to a new moon. Similarly, the elongation of the moon is, for example, 157.5@
If it is within the range of ~202.5°, the moon age data will be any value in the range of 13.0 to 16.6 days depending on the elongation at that time, and the moon age data obtained at this time will be written to register R. . Moon ages 13.0 to 16.6 correspond to the groove row. The same holds true when the elongation is in other angular ranges, and the relationship between the elongation, the age of the moon, and the phase of the moon determined by calculation is as shown in the chart of FIG. 11.

Returning to FIG. 5, if the moon phase calculation is completed, step S14
The flag F1 is reset to 0 in step S16.
Execute the sunrise/sunset calculation to calculate the sunrise/sunset times for the current day.

FIG. 12 shows a detailed flowchart of the sunrise/sunset calculation in step 818 of FIG.

Therefore, step 851 is the same as step S41 in FIG.
Similarly, this process converts the current time to Greenwich time and stores it in register Z.

The next step 852 is to find the variable t3, which is the number of days since January 1st of the year, and if year=YE month=MN day=DA then W=
(YE-1900)+4 F=FRAC(W) A=INT (L46 LXW) ・B= INT

1-F) D= I NT (0,44X (MN+4.4) )
Then, YY=A+31+(B-1)XC-BXD, which is obtained by variable ta=Y-YY. However, this variable t
3 is stored in register Z.

The next step S53 is similar to step 842, and the variable t
In the next step S54, the variable t3
The equation of time is calculated and stored. This equation of time KJS is A=(t 3 80.5) X 3[io ÷

N (B) -4,82XSIN (2XB) D=592.32X S I N (2XA) -1
If 2,1Gxs I N (4xA), then KJS=C+D (seconds) is obtained.

In the next step 855, the midline time is determined, and this midline time is obtained by the following formula.

Midline time = 12 - Longitude ÷ 15 @ + GMT time difference - Equation of time ÷ 3
600 Here, the data in register D is used as the longitude, and G
As the MT time difference, the data obtained in step 854 is used as the register B1 equation of time.

However, in the next step S58, the visual declination of the sun is calculated from the variable t, and the visual declination of the sun is as follows: Visual declination = 23.26
+ 190) + 0.39X COS (2X t
+ 13) + 0.39X COS (72000X

S (72003X t + 34) + 0.01X
Obtained at COS (+44001X t + 209).

The next step 857 is to calculate the sunrise and sunset equation, and this sunrise and sunset equation has the latitude as φ. , the apparent declination of the sun is φ1
When, A=TAN (φo)xTAN (φ1)B =-0,
017 〇 O8 (φo)
It is expressed as (arcCOS (B-A))÷15''.

Then, in the final step S58, the sunrise and sunset times are obtained and stored in the register J1K of the RAM 16, respectively.The sunrise and sunset times are obtained from the following equations.

Sunrise time = midday time - sunrise and sunset time Sunset time = midday time Sunrise and sunset time calculation Then, by the sunrise/sunset calculation in step 818 in FIG. 5, the sunrise time and sunset time of the current day are respectively stored in register J1K. After that, the process advances to step S15 and is displayed.

FIG. 13 shows a detailed flowchart of the display process in step S15 in FIG.
This shows the change in the display state.

In step 60 of FIG. 13, first, it is determined whether the value of mode register M is rOJ.

However, when M = "0", the process proceeds to step 61, where it is determined whether the value of register N is O or not, and when N = "0", the hour angle of the month is determined in the next steps S62, S63, and S84, respectively. The data, current time data, and moon age data are sent to the display register A, and in step 865, the data in the register A is sent to the decoder driver circuit 17 (FIG. 3) and displayed on the display section 2.

Therefore, when the display unit 2 is in the current time display mode with register M = rOJ and register N = rOJ, the current time is Monday, June 26th, 10:58:50, as shown in A of Fig. 14. At the same time, the moon phase of the day is displayed on the display 2at, and it can be seen that it is a waning moon, and that the hour angle at that time is 15h (hour), that is, the moon is in the 15h direction.

In the display state of A in FIG. 14 above, the switch:
When K, , Ka are operated, the display is switched to the one shown at 81C1D in FIG. 14. That is, when the switch 1 to 6 is operated in step S1 in FIG. 5, it is determined that a key is present, and key processing in step S17 is performed. FIG. 15 shows details of the key processing in step 817. First, it is determined in step 3100 whether or not the operated key is on the switch 1. If YES, the process proceeds to step 5101. It is determined whether register M=rOJ. However, M
If = rOJ, the process advances to step 5102 where "1" is set in register M, and in the next step 5103, the current time in register C is transferred to register E and stored therein.

If it is determined in step 5101 that M=rOJ is not established, the process advances to step 5104 and M=r1. J or not is determined, and when M=“1”, the next step 510
5, M is set to "2", and when M = rIJ, M
= r2J, and in step 5106 M is given rOJ.
is set. That is, each time the switch is operated to 1, the value of M is rOJ rlJr2J rOJ...
・It will continue to change.

However, in the display processing of FIG. 13, when M=1, the process proceeds from step S60 to step 866, where it is determined whether M=rlJ, and the process proceeds to step 867. However, in step S67, it is determined whether the flag F2 is O or not, and when F2="0", in step S68,
When □ is operated on the switch with the contents of register E, that is, M = "0", register E is set in step 5103.
Of the current time data transferred to , only the contents of the month, date, day of the week, and year are sent to display register A, and the next step 88
5 is displayed. Therefore, the display contents when M=rlJ are as shown in FIG. 14B. Also, step S in FIG.
When it is determined in 66 that M=rlJ is not true, that is,
When M=r2J, the process advances to step 369, and data to be displayed is sent to register A depending on whether flag F2 is "1" or "0" (not shown), and is displayed in step 885. For example, when F2="0", the month, day, day of the week, and year data of register E are displayed as shown in E of FIG.

In FIG. 15, when the switch 2 is operated, it is detected in step 5107, and in the next step 5108, M=
It is determined whether or not it is rOJ. When M = "0", it is the operation of switch 2 in the current time display mode, and the register "0" is set in the next step 5109.5111.8113.
The value of is determined. When register N= rOJ, the first
The switch is operated to 2 in the state A in FIG. 4, and the process proceeds to step 5110, where register N is set to ``1'' and the second digit is designated as a correction digit. Further, when N=rlJ, step 511
1, the process proceeds to step 5112, where the register L is set to "0" and the register N is set to "2". Furthermore, when register N=“2”, step 5113
From step 5114, the process proceeds to step 810 of FIG. 5, S13.
Processing similar to step 816 is performed, and although not shown in FIG. 15, "0" is set in N.

As mentioned above, when M = "0", 2 is operated on the switch,
By changing the value of register N from "0" to "1" or "2", the display contents are switched as follows. That is, in the display process of FIG. 13, since M=“0”, the process proceeds from step S60 to step 861,
Further, in step S70, it is determined whether N=r3J or not.
In the next step S71, it is determined that N=rlJ. However, when N=rlJ, the process proceeds to step 872, where the current time data in register C is sent to display register A, and in the next step S73, the digit to be corrected is flushed. Therefore, when N=1, the time correction mode is entered as shown in C in FIG. 14, and the current time can be corrected. Further, when switch S2 is operated in the state of N=rIJ, N=r2J is set in step 5112, and the first
The time difference/longitude/latitude setting mode shown in F in Figure 4 will be activated. Therefore, in the display process of FIG. 13, the process proceeds from step S71 to steps S74 and S75, and the value of register L is determined. However, when register L=0, step S74
The process then proceeds to step S78, where the character data of GMT, the time difference data of register B, and the hour, minute, and second data of register C are sent to register A. In step 877, the correction location (L
If =0, GMT characters and time difference data) are blinked. Therefore, a display as shown in G in FIG. 16 is made. Also, the value of register L is set to 6 for the switch as described later.
This is changed in step 87 when L = "1".
At 8, the LO character indicating longitude, the longitude data in register D, the latitude data and n and W character data in register H are sent to register A, and the LO character and longitude data that are the corrected part are blinked. Furthermore, when L=r2J, in step S79, the LA character, registers D, H, character data n
1W is sent to register A and goes to next step 877, so register L=rlJ at N=r2J
At the time of r2J, a display as shown in FIG. 16 H11 is made. Incidentally, in the display of FIG. 16G and Hlr, the data at the blinking portion is corrected by operating the switch 3. This will be discussed later. Also, N= r2J
When the switch 2 is operated in this state, the mode returns to the current time display mode of N=rOJ shown in A of FIG. 14 or FIG. 16.

However, at this time, in step 5114 of FIG. 15, the hour angle of the moon, the age of the moon, and the sunrise and sunset times are calculated based on the corrected current time, time difference, longitude, and latitude data, respectively, so in the display mode of N=rOJ. displays the hour angle and phase of the moon based on the corrected data.

Next, operate the switch 3 at step 511 in FIG.
5, and the process proceeds to the next step S11θ. In this step 5116, it is determined whether M=rOJ, and M
, = rOJ, it is determined in the next steps 5117 and 5118 whether or not N = rOJ, and whether or not N = r3J, and when N = "0", it is determined in step 5119. When N is "3" and N="3", N is set to "0" in step 5120. However, when N=r3J, this is determined in step 870 in the display process of FIG. 13, and the next step 87 is performed.
At 8, sunrise and sunset mark display bodies 2b and 2b in Figure 2
A "1" signal for displaying is set in register A, and in the next step S79, the sunrise time, sunset time, and moon phase data of the current day stored in register J1 and H, respectively, are transferred to register A. .

Therefore, M= rOJ and N= "0" shown in A of FIG.
”, when the switch is operated to 3, N=r3J becomes N=r3J in step 5119 of FIG.
When r3J is reached, in steps S78 and S79 of FIG. 13, the sunrise and sunset mark indicators 2b, 2b, sunrise time,
Since the process of displaying the sunset time and moon phase data respectively is performed, as shown in D in FIG. Moon age data of 22.4 days, moon phase, etc. are displayed. Further, when the switch S3 is operated in the display state shown in Fig. 14, step 51 in Fig. 15 is performed.
Since N=rOJ is set by 20, the display returns to the current time display shown in A of FIG.

In step 5118 of FIG. 15, if N is not "3", N is "1" or "2", that is, the 14th
Current time correction mode shown in C in the figure or F in Fig. 14
In the next step 8121, if the current time is in correction mode, the target digit to be corrected; if in time difference/longitude/latitude setting mode, the time difference specified in the register is set. , longitude, and latitude are sequentially corrected or set.

Also, in step 5116 of FIG. 15, M= r
When it is determined that it is not OJ, M=rlJ or "
2", the process proceeds to step 5122, and F2; "O
” is determined. However, when F2=0, the process of sequentially advancing the date of the current time data in register C transferred to register E in the next step 5123 is performed. That is, in the mode where M = "1", the time when the fish can be caught the most on the current date transferred to the register E or on the desired date obtained by correcting this date is determined by G in Fig. 14. Fishing best time display mode (F
In addition, in the sunrise/sunset time display mode with M = "2", the sunrise time and sunset time on the current date or desired date can be displayed in the same way as the sunrise time in H in Figure 14. , can be displayed in the sunset time display mode (F2="1"), and in step 5123 of FIG. 15, the date in register E is updated to obtain the desired date. 1st
The construction in Figure 4 is a display example in which the date data of the current time stored in register E shown in Figure 14 B is set to June 26, 1989 and is advanced to June 30, 1989 by the operation in step 3. Similarly, J in FIG.
An example of a display that advances to the 1st of the month is shown. Note that these display processes are performed in step 8 of FIG. 13 when M=rIJ.
68, when M=r2J, step 869 is performed. The process of calculating the best fishing time or sunrise and sunset times based on the date data in register E is executed by operating switch 4, and the process will be described below.

The operation of switch 4 is determined in step 5124 in FIG. 15, and in the next step 5125 it is determined whether M=“1”. When M=rIJ, the next step 5126
Whether F2="0" or not, that is, B or I in FIG.
It is determined whether or not the display state is displayed. However, F2="0"
In the case of , the process proceeds to the next step 8127.128, and lunar age calculation processing and lunar hour angle calculation processing are performed. Step 5
The moon age calculation process in step 5127 is almost the same as that shown in FIG. 10, except that in FIG. , based on the current time data or arbitrary time data set in the switch 3, and step S in FIG.
The only difference is that the lunar age data obtained from the calculation result in step 46 is stored in register U instead of register R. In addition, the moon hour angle calculation in step 5128 is performed at the sixth
It is performed in the same way as steps S21 to 832 in the figure, but
The difference is that the process is performed based on register E, as described above. Further, in step S32, when the time at which the hour angle becomes 0 o'clock is obtained, this data is stored in the register W. Further, in the next step 5129, the times at which the hour angle becomes 6 o'clock, 12 o'clock, and 18 o'clock are determined in the same manner. and,
In the next step 5130, step 5128.12
The time data at which the hour angle obtained in step 9 is 0 o'clock, 6 o'clock, 12 o'clock, and 18 o'clock are stored in register T, respectively. ~ Store in T3. Furthermore, in the next step 5131, data indicating the fishing condition is calculated from the moon age data obtained in step 5127 and the hour angle data at 0 o'clock, 6 o'clock, 12 o'clock, and 18 o'clock, and Data corresponding to 6 o'clock, 12 o'clock, and 18 o'clock are stored in registers Qo to Q3, respectively.

FIG. 17 explains the fish mark number data calculation process in step 5131. For example, if the moon's hour angle is 0.
or 12 o'clock, the moon phase data is 0.0 as shown in Figure 11.
~1.8 or 27.7-29.5 new moon, or 13
．． The full moon from 0 to 16.0 is the best time to catch fish, so data to display all four fish mark displays 2f is entered in register Q. , is stored in Q2. In addition, if the moon phase is data representing a waxing or waning moon, it is assumed that it is the next time to catch fish, and data to display three of the four fish mark display bodies 2f is sent to register Q, 1Q2. It is to be memorized. Similarly,
Display data corresponding to the moon's hour angle and moon age data as shown in FIG. 17 is in register Q. These are stored in Q3 to Q3, respectively. However, when the process of step 5131 in FIG. 15 is completed, the process proceeds to step 5132, and the flag F2 is set to "1".

By setting the flag F2 to "1" in step 5132, the display on the display section 2 changes from B or I in FIG. 14 to the best fishing time display mode in G in FIG. 14. That is, when M=rlJ and Fz=rlJ, steps S66 and S6 in the display process of FIG.
7, proceed to step S80.81.82, register P
The value of is determined. However, when P = "0", in the next step S83, data for displaying the display body 2c corresponding to the hour angle 0 o'clock among the 25 hour angle display bodies 2c of the display section 2 is set in the register A, and the next In step S84, the register Q is calculated in step 5131 of FIG. 15 described above. The fishing condition data at hour angle 0 o'clock stored in is set in register A, and furthermore, in the next step S
At step 85, the moon age data stored in register U, the date data in register E, the time data at hour angle 0 o'clock in register T0, and the data of numerical value "2" are set in register A. Then, in the next step 386, data indicating which of the lunar phase indicators 2a1 to 2 a e are to be displayed is set in register A from the lunar age data in register U, and the data set in register A is displayed in step A65. This is what is displayed in Section 2.

FIG. 18 shows changes in the display state in the fishing best time display mode where M=“1” and F2=“1”. However, as will be described later, the value of register P changes from "0" to "3" by operating switch 5, and when P=rOJ, as shown in B in Figure 18, the value of register P changes from "0" to "3". The time when the moon's hour angle reaches 0:00 is 6:05.
5 minutes, the moon age is 22.4, the moon phase is waning moon, and
The degree of catching fish is the second best (four fish mark indicators 2)
It is best if all f lights up, and since three are displayed in the above display, the second) is displayed.

Further, when P=rlJ, the process advances from step S81 to step S87.88.89, when P=r2J, the process proceeds to step 882.90191.92, and when P=3, the process proceeds to step S93.94.95, respectively. , the hour angle is 6
Data to be displayed at the hour, 12 o'clock, and 18 o'clock are set in register A. That is, the data for displaying the corresponding hour angle display 2C is set in steps S87, 90, 93, the fishing status data at that time is set in steps S88, 91, 94, the moon age data, the date data, and the like. The time data corresponding to the hour angle and the number data indicating the display order are respectively set in the register A in steps S89, 92, and 95. Therefore, display part 2
As shown in C1D and A of FIG. 18, various data are displayed when the hour angle is 6 o'clock, 12 o'clock, and 18 o'clock, respectively.

In FIG. 15, when it is determined in step 5125 that M = not "1", the process advances to step 5133,
It is determined whether M=r2J.

When M= r2J, F2=“0” in step 5134.
It is determined whether the
Proceeding to 135 and 5136, moon phase calculation and sunrise/sunset calculation are performed. The moon phase and sunrise/sunset calculations are the same as those shown in Figures 10 and 12, respectively, and the difference is the data stored in register E (current time data or data set to switch 3). The only points are that the operation is performed based on , and the operation result data is stored in the respective registers X1Y.

However, since F2 is set to "1" in the next step 8132, F2 is set to "1" in step S69 of the display process in FIG.
It is determined whether or not is "1", and when it is "1", the data stored in the registers U, X, and Y are displayed. Therefore, in H of FIG. 14, the sunrise time, sunset time, moon age data on the day stored in register E,
Date, moon phase and sunrise/sunset mark display bodies 2b, 2
b is displayed, and this display is similar to D in FIG.

Also, in steps 8128 and 8134 of FIG.
If it is determined that F2=rl is not true, that is, F2=rl, the process advances to step 5137, and F2 is set to zero. As a result, in the display section 2, as shown in FIG.
, H display state returns to BLE display state.

The operation of 5 on the switch is determined in step 5138 in FIG. If it is determined in this step 8137 that the switch KI5 is operated, the process advances to steps 8139 and 5140.
It is determined whether M=“O” or not, and whether N=“1” or not, and M=
If rOJ, N=“1”, the next step 514
In step 1, a process for selecting a target technique to be modified is performed. That is, when the switch 6 is operated in the time adjustment mode shown in C in FIG. 14, the unit of adjustment of the current time is sequentially selected from seconds to minutes, minutes to hours, and so on.

Further, when it is determined in step 5140 that N=rlJ is not determined, it is determined in step 5142 whether N=r2J or not, and when N= "2", the value of register L is sequentially incremented in the next step 8143. . Therefore, the first
When the switch 6 is operated in the time difference/longitude/latitude setting mode F1 in FIG. 4, that is, the time difference/longitude/latitude setting mode shown in F in FIG. Furthermore,
If it is determined in step 5139 of FIG. 15 that M = rOJ, then in steps 8144 and 8145 M
= r I J , F 2 = r I J is determined. That is, it is determined whether or not the fishing best time display mode is selected, and if M=“1” and F2=“1”, then in the next step 5146, the register P is sequentially incremented.

Therefore, when the switch is operated to 5 in the fishing best time display mode, the dish information at the hour angles of 18 o'clock, 0 o'clock, 6 o'clock, and 12 o'clock is sequentially displayed as shown in Fig. 18A, B1C1D. It is something that will be done.

Incidentally, when a switch other than those mentioned above, for example, switch 6 is operated, the process proceeds to step 5147, and other functional processing is performed although not shown.

As described above, in the above embodiment, time information is displayed when the hour angle of the moon is at a specific hour angle on the current date or a set date, so the time is most suitable for fishing, etc. can be known immediately. In this case, in the above embodiment, only one time is digitally displayed for one hour angle, but for example, the time when fish can be caught is 1 to 2 hours before and after the time for that specific hour angle.
In the above embodiment, this is clearly indicated by the display 2e. Therefore, the user knows that fishing is good for 1 to 2 hours before and after the digitally displayed time. In addition, instead of clearly indicating with the display body 2e as described above,
For example, the time one hour before and the time one hour after the digitally displayed time may be calculated and displayed digitally using an optical display means to inform the user of the best fishing times.

In addition, in the above embodiment, since the data on the fishing status is obtained and displayed from the moon phase (or moon age data) and the moon's hour angle, it is effective to know which time of day the fishing is best. Furthermore, in the above embodiment, when calculating each data, first the time data at Greenwich is calculated based on the time difference, and then each data is obtained from the Greenwich time, so the hour angle calculation and moon phase calculation , processing such as sunrise/sunset time calculations can be simplified.

Although the above embodiment has been described with reference to 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, a dedicated machine may be used.

Alternatively, time data and position data may be input using a keyboard or the like provided with a time input key 1 position key, etc., and various calculations may be performed based on the input data.

Furthermore, in the normal time display mode, the calculation timing of moon age, hour angle, etc.
Calculations are not limited to units of time, but may be performed at shorter time intervals; for example, the hour angle of the moon may be calculated every minute.

Furthermore, instead of displaying the fish catching status using four fish mark indicators as in this embodiment, for example, the number of indicators may be increased, or the percentage of fish caught may be digitally displayed with 100%. .

In the above example, we talked about fishing, but the moon phase and the moon's hour angle affect the feeding activities of not only fish but also other animals, so it is not limited to fishing. Of course.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, according to the present invention, the success or failure of hunting is calculated and displayed based on data such as the age of the moon, the moon phase, and the hour angle of the moon. You can easily obtain reference data.
