Abstract

PURPOSE:To develop a time scale panel by which time of a foreign country corresponding to time of the own country can be known without having a timepiece of a foreign country and without calculating a difference in time, and also, time of the own country corresponding to time of a foreign country can be known at the time of staying in a foreign country. CONSTITUTION:A time scale panel 2 is provided at the outside periphery of a circular time scale panel 1, the time scale panel of the outside periphery is regarded to show time of the own country, the circular scale panel 1 of the inside is regarded to show time of other country, and by shifting the circular time scale panel by a difference in time 3 between both the countries, time of a foreign country of the inside corresponding to time of the own country of the outside periphery can be read. On the other hand, at the time of staying in a foreign country, time of the own country of the outside periphery carresponding to time of a foreign country of the inside can be read.

Description

Description: [0001] [Industrial field of application] Time scale for reading the time relationship between two countries [0002] [Prior Art] Conventionally, to know the time of another country, the time of another country is indicated. Clocks were set up, and as many countries as I wanted to know had to set up. Or, I had to take into account the time difference with other countries and calculate the time of other countries. [0003] [Problems to be solved by the invention] It is possible to know the time of another country with respect to the time of one's own country without setting the clock for the other country and without calculating the time difference. , Development of time scale which can know own time with respect to time of other countries [0004] [Means for solving the problem] A time scale is also provided on the outer circumference of the circular time scale, and the time scale of the outer circumference is provided. It is possible to read the time of another country with respect to the time of one's own country by recognizing that the time is the home country's time, the inner circular time scale is regarded as the time of another country, and shifting the circular time scale by the time difference between the two countries. . Also, when in another country, the time of the home country can be read relative to the time of the other country. [0005] [Operation] It is possible to know the time of another country with respect to the time of one's own country without setting the clocks of other countries and without calculating the time difference. Also, when in another country, it is possible to know the time of the home country with respect to the time of the other country. [Example] [0006] In the following, referring to the drawings, a circular time scale (1) is also provided with a time scale (2) on the outer circumference, and the outer time scale is regarded as the time of the home country, and Considering the circular time scales of other countries as the times of other countries (Fig. 1), by shifting the circular time scales by the time difference (3) between the two countries (Fig. 2) (Fig. 2), the time of other countries on the inner side with respect to the time of the other countries on the outer circumference You can read the time. Also, in other countries,
It is possible to read the time of the home country on the periphery with respect to the time of another country on the inside. [0007] That is, by adjusting the 0:00 of the time dial of the other country on the inside to the time (4) corresponding to the time difference between the own country and the other country on the time scale of the own country on the outer side, the time of the other country on the inner side with respect to the time of the other country on the outer side is adjusted. I know the time. In other countries, the time of the home country on the outer side of the time of the other country inside can be known. [0008] At this time, the time corresponding to the time difference is set on the time scales of other countries on the inner side with respect to 0:00 on the time scale of the home country on the outer periphery. At this time, draw a line (5) at the time of another country and enter the country name (Fig. 2). [0009] Similarly, for countries that want to know the time relationship, draw a line (6) at the time of each country on the inner side of the time scale of their own countries on the outer circumference, and enter the respective country names (Fig. 3). [0010] After that, when it is desired to know the time relationship with another country, it can be known by adjusting the time line (6) of the inside country to be known to 0:00 on the time scale of the own country on the outer circumference. [0011] On the inner circular time scale (1), a world map as seen from the North Pole, and a time line (7) when the position of the home country is 0:00
If it is inserted so as to pass through, the timeline (6) of the required country can be easily found by using the position of that country as a clue (Fig. 4). [0012] If the inner circular time scale and the outer peripheral time scale are placed in the relationship of the magnet and the iron plate, they can be joined together and the inner circular time scale can be easily rotated. [Effects of the Invention] It is possible to know the time of another country with respect to the time of the own country without setting the clocks for other countries or calculating the time difference. Also, when in another country, it is possible to know the time of the home country with respect to the time of the other country.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS [FIG. 1] A plan view in which a time scale (2) is also provided on the outer periphery of a circular time scale (1) [FIG. 2] Circular time scale (1) and the time of the periphery The dial (2) is shifted by the time difference (3) between the home country and the other country, that is, the time corresponding to the time difference between the home country and the other country on the time scale of the outer country is 0 o'clock on the inner time zone of the other country (4). ). At this time, draw a line (5) at the time of the other country that coincides with the midnight of your own country, and put the name of the country on the plan [Fig. 3] Circular time scale (1) inside the country of the country you want to know the time relationship with your own country. , A plan view in which the line (6) and the name of the country are entered at the time when the country is 0 o'clock [Fig. 4] On the circular time scale (1) inside, a world map viewed from the North Pole Insert the time line (7) so that it passes through, and the time line (6) of the required country is a plan view that makes it easy to find the position of that country [Explanation of symbols] 1 Circular time scale plate 2 of other countries Home time scale 3 Time difference between home and other countries 4 Time difference between home and other countries 5 Time line of other countries at 0 o'clock of home country 6 Time line of each country at 0 o'clock of home country 7 Time of day passing through home position Time line

Claims (1)

Claims [Claim 1] A time scale is also provided on the outer circumference of the circular time scale, and the circular time scale is shifted by the time difference between the two countries. A time scale that can read the time of the other country [Claim 2] A world time map seen from the North Pole is placed on the circular time scale to make it easier to find the time difference of the other country. [Claim 3] The circular time scale plate and the outer periphery time scale plate are joined to each other in a relationship of a magnet and an iron plate, and the circular time scale plate is easily rotated.
