Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea]

0001

[Industrial application field]

The present invention relates to a wristwatch with a vibration alarm equipped with a vibration alarm device. It is.

0002

[Conventional technology]

Traditionally, vibrations are used instead of a buzzer to notify the arrival of the alarm time. So-called vibrating alarm clocks are known. This vibration-based alarm clock wakes up the person next to you. Only you can sense the alarm and wake up without worrying about the alarm It is used to prevent people from crossing the line and trains.

0003 As an example, the Applicant of this application uses a vibrating alarm unit that activates when the alarm setting time arrives. The company has filed an application for a vibrating alarm clock that vibrates in small increments to notify the time. No. 1-70185, Utility Model Application No. 1-70186). Also, the alarm setting time There are also known portable watches whose product body vibrates in small increments to let you know when the time has arrived. .

0004 On the other hand, the applicant has previously proposed a vibrating watch with a built-in vibrating alarm unit in the watch body. We have applied for a design for a wristwatch with an alarm (application number 13302/1992).

[0005]

[Problem that the idea aims to solve]

Among the conventional technologies mentioned above, alarm clocks equipped with vibration alarm units are easy to use. It's good in the hand, but it's inconvenient to carry, and it's meant to be placed next to your pillow. It is. In addition, a portable watch whose main body vibrates little by little to let you know when the time has arrived. Although it is convenient to carry, it is meant to be carried in your pocket, etc., and should not be lost. There is a good chance of losing it. If you temporarily put this mobile watch in your jacket pocket, If you had taken off your jacket at the time you set the time, the function would have been wasted. Become.

[0006] On the other hand, a wristwatch with a vibration alarm that has a vibration alarm unit built into the wristwatch itself. Although there are some positive aspects to the watch, such as being more portable and less likely to be lost, the same watch Inside the main unit, there is a normal timetable function section that displays the time, and a vibration alarm unit. Naturally, the size of the watch itself increases to accommodate the . Therefore, as a watch This significantly impairs the appearance and imposes significant design restrictions. Moreover, it is worn on the arm Unlike regular watches, there is a space for vibration generation, so you may feel a sense of discomfort when make you feel the same

[0007] This invention is proposed in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and its purpose is to: Without compromising the design of the watch itself, it also feels less uncomfortable when worn on the wrist. To provide a wristwatch with a vibration alarm that has a simple configuration. The second part of this invention The purpose of The purpose of the present invention is to provide a wristwatch with a vibrating alarm.

[0008]

[Means to solve the problem]

The feature of this invention to achieve the above purpose is that it has a built-in vibration alarm device. A vibration alarm unit is installed on the band at a predetermined distance from the watch body. There it is.

[0009] The vibration alarm unit may be movable along the direction of band extension. .

【Example】

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. ◆ As shown in FIG. 1, the wristwatch with a vibration alarm according to the present invention has a wristwatch main body 1 and , bands 2 and 3 attached to this watch body, and provided on this band 3. It consists of a vibration alarm unit 4.

[0011] The watch body 1 has a built-in clock module (not shown). The watch is equipped with a known time display mechanism and an alarm mechanism.

0012 Bands 2 and 3 are attached to the top and bottom of the watch body 1, and one band 3 has a A vibration alarm unit 4, which will be described later, is slidable along the stretching direction of the band 3. It is provided.

[0013] The vibration alarm unit 4 has a box shape as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, and has an upper frame 5 and The lower frame 6 is connected to the lower frame 6 by screws 7, 7. Upper frame 5 and lower frame Vibration alarm device 8 is housed by mounting plates 5a and 6a that protrude oppositely from 6. I support it. The vibration alarm device 8 has a rotating shaft eccentrically connected to its rotating shaft 8a. It is equipped with a rolling body 8b, and vibration is generated by eccentrically driving the rotating body 8b. It is something. Engagement parts 6b, 6b that engage with the band 3 are provided at the lower part of the lower frame 6. Yes, the vibration alarm unit 4 can be slid freely along the stretching direction of the band 3. ing.

[0014] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the band 3 has a flexible structure along the stretching direction of the band. A bull cable 9 is buried there. The upper surface of this flexible cable 9 has an insulating film. 10 to protect the flexible cable 9 from the outside. ◆ Two grooves are formed in the insulating film 10, and from the bottom frame 6 of the vibration alarm unit 4. The protruding terminals 11 pass through this groove and come into contact with the flexible cable 9. There is. Terminals 11, 11 are connected to vibration alarm device 8 via cords 12, 12. has been done. As a result, the watch module built into the watch body 1 and the vibration alarm and the system unit 4 are electrically connected.

[0015] Next, the operation of the present invention will be explained. ◆ Set the time you want the alarm to go off using the watch itself. alarm time When the clock arrives, the clock module outputs an alarm signal, and the flexible cable A current flows through. The current vibrates through terminals 11 and 11 in the vibration alarm unit. It is transmitted to the alarm device 8. The vibration alarm device 8 is driven and the rotating body 8b rotates. The resulting vibration is transmitted to the band 3 via the upper frame 5 and the lower frame 6, The information is transmitted to the wrist of the person wearing the watch.

[0016] If you want to change the part of the vibration that is transmitted to your arm, change the vibration alarm unit 4 to band 3. Just slide it along the stretching direction.

[0017] In this embodiment, the vibration alarm unit 4 is slid along the stretching direction of the band 3. However, the configuration is not limited to this, and the band itself can be configured to vibrate. It may also be configured to embed a system device.

[0018]

[Effect of the idea]

As explained above, according to the wristwatch with vibration alarm of the present invention, the vibration alarm Since the unit is attached to the band, the time is normally displayed inside the same watch body. There is no need to store the time function section and vibration alarm unit, and the design of the watch can be improved. The constraints on the process are also reduced. What's more, it feels just like a regular wristwatch when worn on your wrist. It gives a sense of touch and reduces discomfort.

[0019] In addition, the vibration alarm unit is configured to be able to slide freely along the stretching direction of the band. If so, the position where the vibration is generated can be changed freely, and it can be adjusted to suit the user's preference. It can be treated.
