Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial field of application] The present invention can be commonly used for displaying the progress of a game in a game such as volleyball, which requires counting of sets, and a game such as basketball, which has a predetermined game time. This invention relates to improvements in score display devices used.

The display content of a score display device that displays the progress of a competition often includes information specific to the competition in addition to the number of points.

Examples include set numbers during a game in a game where sets are counted, such as a volleyball game, and the remaining game time in a game that has a predetermined game time, such as a basketball game.

Furthermore, since it would be uneconomical to use separate score display devices for each type of competition, the above-mentioned unique information regarding multiple types of competitions can be displayed so that the score display devices can be used in common as much as possible.

In this case, the number of items to be displayed on one score display device, that is, the number of display sections corresponding to the items increases, and the price of the display device increases, but it is desired that the price be low.

[Problems to be Solved by the Prior Art and Ideas] An example of a conventional score display device including a display of the set number during a match and the remaining time of the match is shown in a front view in FIG.

In the same figure, 1a and 1b are A and B, respectively.
The team name display sections 2a and 2b, on which tags with the team names of the teams are attached, each consist of three, for example, 5x7 display units, and the score display sections 3a and 3b display the scores of teams A and B. , a set count display section each consisting of four lamp display elements and displaying the set number acquired by team A or B; 4 consists of one, for example, 5 x 7 display unit, and displaying the set number during the match. The set number display section 5 is a remaining time display section consisting of four, for example, 5x7 display units, and displays the remaining time of the match.

The score display sections 2a and 2b each display a three-digit number.

The set count display sections 3a and 3b display four lamps each indicating the first to fourth sets from the top. For example, when team A obtains the first set, the first set lamp on the A team side is lit. It's like saying let's do it.

Further, the display on the set number display section 4 is a one-digit number, and the display on the remaining time display section 5 is a four-digit number.

Displays on each display section of this display device are performed by operating an operation panel (not shown).

That is, the score display sections 2a and 2b operate the push button switches to increase or decrease the number of points displayed, and the set count display sections 3a and 3b change the four paddle switches corresponding to the first to fourth set lamps to A or A. B
By turning the paddle switch to the team side, the set number display section 4 will be linked to the number of paddle switches turned down.
The remaining time display section 5 is controlled by setting a numeric value on a four-digit digital switch and operating a switch to start a subtraction mechanism using a timer.

A display example for a game in which sets are counted, such as a volleyball game, is as shown in Figure A, and a display example for a game that has a predetermined game time, for example, a basketball game, is as shown in Figure B. It is like that.

In the former case, the remaining time display section 5 is blank because there is no remaining game time as unique information.
In the latter case, since there is no counting of sets, the set count display sections 3a, 3b and the set number display section 4 are
is not displayed.

In the score display device having this configuration, as described above, since an independent display section is provided for each item to be displayed, there is a problem that the price of the display device becomes high.

[Means for solving problems]

The above problem can be solved by the present invention, which has a common display section that switches and displays the set number during the match of the first competition in which sets are counted, and the remaining match time of the second competition having a predetermined match time. This is solved by the score display device.

[Effect]

Conventionally, the set number display section that displays the set number during the match and the remaining time display section that displays the remaining time of the match were separate, but in the first competition, the remaining time display section was not displayed. In the second competition, the set number display section is not displayed.
However, the number of digits displayed in the remaining time display section is greater than the number of digits displayed in the set number display section.

Therefore, by making the remaining time display part the common display part and switching its display function, it is possible to display both the remaining game time and the set number in the match on the common display part, and the set number in the match can be displayed. It becomes possible to remove the number display section.

Thus, with the configuration of the present invention, it is possible to provide a score display device that displays the remaining game time and the set number during the game at a lower cost than before.

〔Example〕

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. The same reference numerals indicate the same objects throughout the figures.

FIG. 1 is a front view showing an embodiment of the score display device according to the present invention, where FIG. 1A shows an example of display in a competition where sets are counted, and FIG.

The score display device shown in FIG. 1 has the set number display section 4 removed from the display device shown in FIG.

This is because the remaining time display section 5 is made into a common display section 6, which also displays the set number during the match.

In competitions where sets are counted, the four-digit remaining time display section 5 is not displayed, and in competitions with a predetermined match time, the one-digit set number display section 4 is not displayed. No inconvenience will occur even if the section 6 displays both.

A display example for a game in which sets are counted, such as a volleyball game, is as shown in Figure A, and a display example for a game that has a predetermined game time, for example, a basketball game, is as shown in Figure B. It is like that.

The set number in progress is displayed using the four-digit common display section 6. For example, in the case of the fourth set, the set number is displayed as "4:ST" as shown in Figure A. I make it easy to understand.

The operation when the common display section 6 displays the remaining game time is the same as before. When displaying the set number during a match, for example, by setting the digital switch operated when displaying the remaining time of the match to 9999, the control circuit (not shown) can be used to display the set number during the match from the display of the remaining match time. Switch to display,
From then on, it is linked to the paddle switch operation of the set count display as before.

The display of the remaining game time and the set number display during the game may be switched by adding a switch to the operation panel to switch between a game that counts sets and a game that has a predetermined game time.

[Effect of idea]

As explained above, according to the configuration of the present invention, it is possible to display the remaining match time and the set number during the match on one display, and the display of the remaining match time and the set number during the match can be This has the effect of making it possible to provide a score display device having the present invention at a lower cost than before.
