Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a watch with a cover, which has a rotatable cover having a window portion on the front surface and a plurality of display portions.

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, watches that have a plurality of display sections that are a combination of a digital display section and an analog display section, and digital watches that display the current time, lap time, date, etc. on a single display screen have become widespread.

These watches are convenient for keeping track of a lot of time information at once, but on the other hand, it is difficult to distinguish only the desired display part from among the multiple display parts at a glance, and unnecessary display parts are constantly displayed. The downside was that I had to pay close attention to everything.

In particular, the more the functions of a watch are diversified, the more information is displayed on the display screen at once, and it becomes more difficult to discern only the desired display.

An object of the present invention is to provide a rotatable cover having a window on the front surface of the display section to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks.

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

FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a first embodiment of the present invention.
Reference numeral 1 denotes a watch case, 2 a digital display section consisting of an electro-optical display device, 3 an analog display section, and 4 a cover rotatably attached to the upper part of the watch case 1.

The cover 4 has a window portion 4a, and the digital display portion 2 or the analog display portion 3 can be seen through the window portion 4a. In FIG. 1, the digital display section 2 is shown in the window section 4a.
The figure shows a state in which the analog display section 3 is hidden by the mask section 4b of the cover 4.

By rotating the cover 4 in the state shown in FIG. 1 clockwise or counterclockwise, the digital display section 2 can be hidden under the mask section 4b and the analog display section 3 can be seen through. It can be done.

Since this embodiment is based on a round watch, the cover 4 can be attached to the top of the watch case 1 using the conventional register ring method.

Furthermore, by providing irregularities at appropriate positions between the cover 4 and the watch case 1, it is also possible to make the cover 4 click motion.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a second embodiment of the present invention.

Note that the same parts as in the first embodiment shown in FIG. 1 are given the same reference numerals.

The composite display timepiece according to the first embodiment shown in FIG. 1 has a digital display section and an analog display section arranged vertically, but the one shown in FIG. 2 has a digital display section 5 and an analog display section 6 arranged vertically. arranged horizontally. The present embodiment differs from the first embodiment only in the arrangement of the display section of the watch, but the functions and effects are the same as in the first embodiment.

FIG. 3 is a diagram showing a third embodiment of the present invention.

7 is a watch case, 8 is a first digital display that displays the current time, etc., and 9 is a second digital display that mainly displays seconds digits.
A digital display section, 10 an analog display section, 11 a third digital display section for displaying the date, etc., and 12 a cover having a window section 12a and a mask section 12b.

The cover 12 in this embodiment is also rotatably attached to the upper part of the watch case 7 as in the first and second embodiments.

In this embodiment, three of the four display sections can be seen through the window section 12a of the cover 12, and the remaining one display section is hidden by the mask section 12b.

FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a fourth embodiment of the present invention.

Note that the same parts as in the third embodiment shown in FIG. 3 are given the same reference numerals.

The rotatable cover 13 in this embodiment has four
Window section 13 through which only one of the two display sections can be seen
a, and a mask section 13b that hides all other display sections.

Therefore, in this embodiment, it is possible to select one from a plurality of display units, that is, a plurality of time information, so that desired information can be read more quickly.

FIG. 5 is a diagram showing a fifth embodiment of the present invention.

14 is a rectangular watch case, 15 is an analog display section, 16 is a digital display section, and 17 is a cover having a window section 17a and a mask section 17b.

In the first to fourth embodiments, a round watch case was used, so the cover could be attached by a method such as register ring, but in this embodiment, a square watch case was used. Therefore, by fixing the center point of the rectangular cover 17 with a screw 18, the cover 17 is rotatably attached. In this embodiment, the cover 1 is
7 is attached, however, any configuration may be used as long as the cover 17 can be attached rotatably.

FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a sixth embodiment of the present invention.
Note that the same parts as in the fifth embodiment shown in FIG. 5 are given the same reference numerals.

In the fifth embodiment shown in FIG. 5, the digital display section and the analog display section are arranged vertically, but in this embodiment the digital display section 19 and the analog display section 20 are arranged horizontally. are different. Other functions and effects are the same as those of the fifth embodiment.

As described above, the watch with cover of the present invention can select only the desired display section from among the plurality of display sections, and therefore can provide an easy-to-read display even though there are a plurality of display sections.

Also, by simply rotating the cover, you can change the watch to have a wide variety of display formats. Additionally, a cover is provided over the windshield to protect the glass.

Furthermore, the surface of the mask part of the cover has a pattern,
The design can be further improved by adding characters, decorative panels, etc., and it can be widely adapted for use by women and children.

As described above, the present invention has remarkable practical effects.
