Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention provides a string hole at the top of the stopwatch, and the string attached to the bottom is folded back and inserted through the string hole, making it easy to attach to your arm or pants belt. The present invention relates to a stopwatch which can be attached to a wall, pillar, etc., and which prevents it from being hung upside down even when it is hung on a wall, pillar, etc.

Conventionally, a stopwatch has a string attached to the bottom of the stopwatch, as shown in FIG. 1, and the string is worn around the neck.

In recent years, stopwatches with digital displays have been developed, but the location of the strap and the method of hanging the strap around the neck have not changed.

However, stopwatches have been combined with timer and clock mechanisms, making them multi-functional. Simply attaching it to the bottom of the body would have been extremely inconvenient.

In other words, when a stopwatch is hung from the string around the neck, it turns upside down, and when held with one hand, it becomes normal; however, when used as a watch,
Not only were the letters upside down, making them unsuitable as personal ornaments, but they were also constantly shaking, making them of little value as watches.

Also, when used as a timer, it had the same drawback as a clock: it was difficult to read the time.

Therefore, in this invention, a string hole is provided at the top of the stopwatch, and the string attached to the bottom is inserted through the string hole at the top, so that it can be used for anything other than the stopwatch without any resistance. Explain.

Fig. 1 is a front view of a conventional stopwatch, Fig. 2 is a front view of the present invention, Fig. 3 is a right side view of the present invention, and Fig. 4 is an embodiment in which the string passage hole is passed through to the front of the stopwatch. FIG. 5 is a side view of the example, showing the use state of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 2, a display section 6 is provided in the center of the surface to display the elapsed time of the stopwatch, the remaining time of the timer, and the normal elapsed time, and a push button 5 for setting or stopping the start time. A stopwatch A is equipped with a push button 4 for measuring and resetting the lap time, a push button 8 for setting, and a push button 7 for mode on the lower surface. A string 3 is attached to one end of the string 3, and a string passing hole 1 is provided at the top.

Although the above structure is adopted, the actual use of the present invention is as follows.

When using it as a stopwatch, the fifth
As shown in figure a, the string 3 is inserted without using the string passing hole 1.
Just hang it around your neck.

In this case, the method of use is the same as the conventional method, and when measuring the time, the user holds the watch with one hand and presses each button as necessary.

Next, when using it as a watch, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the string 3 is inserted through the string passing hole 1 to form a ring shape, and like a wristwatch, the string 3 is used in place of a band. Use through hole 1 as a stopper, and
As shown in Figure b, it is used by hanging it on the arm. The same applies when attaching to a band.

In addition, when hanging it on a wall, pillar, etc., as shown in Figure 5c, insert the tip of the string 3 through the string hole 1,
Hang it from a hook on a wall, pillar, etc.

When hung in this way, the characters displayed on the display are not upside down, making it an excellent indoor device like table clocks and wall clocks.

As described above, the present invention is a highly practical stopwatch that has a wide range of applications and increased utility by providing a string hole at the top of the stopwatch so as not to impair the design value of the stopwatch.
