Description

Lunar date display {Timepiece With Linar Calinder}

The present invention is a clock indicating a lunar date, more specifically, a clock that makes it easy to read the lunar date by the hour hand that rotates 360 ° in 24 hours and the hour hand that rotates 347.8 ° in 24 hours in the same direction as the hour hand. It is about.

Different types of time units have been used depending on the times and regions. For example, in the case of the Orient, it is only 100 years since the present day 24 division system was introduced, and before that, the 12 division system was used every day. In some cases, one day is divided into 100, and as the Internet, an international communication network, has become more active worldwide, the Internet, which divides the day into 1000, has been proposed. At present, however, a 24-hour division, that is, a 24-hour system, is settled decisively. Most of the time clocks are rotated twice per day for 12 hours.

The date system currently in use is the solar calendar, which reflects the movement of the sun around the earth. In other words, the time is divided into one day, one day by 24 hours, and one hour by 60 minutes from the time when the sun is in the middle of a certain region of the earth to the next in the south. It is calculated as one year until the next time you return to the point. Thus, the majority of calendars in the world today are solar calendars, and the clock is solar time system. The solar time system has many points in common with the daily life cycle in that the season is determined by the relationship between the sun and the earth, and day and night are determined. However, most of the current clock is a 12-hour system that rotates once every 12 hours. It simply informs the current time and does not express realistic natural phenomena such as the sun's position, altitude, and day and night. There are also side effects.

On the other hand, in addition to the life cycle determined by the sun, there are also cycles affected by the moon. In other words, the lunar date is of great practical importance in the work cycle of those who live on the seashore or engage in sea-related work in the short term and in the long-term farming cycle. For example, tidal tides are a decisive factor in determining the life cycle of people engaged in offshore fishing or various fish and shellfish harvesting operations, and in determining whether boats can be contacted at the port. It is a very important guide in deciding when to fish by sea.

However, unlike the solar calendar, the lunar date is not a simple system, so it is inconvenient to refer to the calendar where the lunar calendar is written.

Therefore, a clock is required to express the lunar date easily while expressing the three-way relationship between the earth and the sun, the earth and the moon, the moon and the sun as it is a natural phenomenon.

The present invention has been made in accordance with the necessity as described above, to provide a lunar date display clock, the basic component of the hour hand that rotates 360 ° in 24 hours and the hour hand that rotates 347.8 ° in 24 hours in the same direction as the hour hand do.

The watch of the present invention for achieving the above object is a circular commercially available (1) at the distal end is divided into 24 at the same angle with respect to the center; An hour hand (2) which rotates 360 ° in 24 hours with the center of the market (1) as an axis; A hand (3) which rotates 347.8 ° in 24 hours in the same direction as the hour hand (2) with the center of the market (1) as an axis; The lunar calendar date display clock, characterized in that it comprises a; lunar lunar display ring (4) located on the outside of the market (1), a plurality of scales are formed at the same angle with respect to the center.

In the present invention, the lunar calendar display ring 4 has two types as follows.

The first type is for detecting the lunar date roughly and sensibly. The lunar calendar ring (4) has six scales formed at the same angle with respect to the center, and each scale has its own indicator lines (41) and 5, 10. The numbers 15, 20, and 25 are displayed consecutively. At this time, in terms of visual design, it is good to display the shape of the moon appearing on the day of the lunar calendar, respectively, on the outside of the number.

The second type of lunar calendar ring (4) is to determine the correct lunar date, the lunar calendar ring (4), the outer band 42 and the inner band 43, two by a circle passing through the middle of the ring The two bands are each marked with 1 to 29 in order in 29 sections formed at 12.2 ° with respect to the center, and 30 are displayed in one section with a residual angle of 6.2 °. The start line of the section indicated by 1 in 42) and the end line of the section indicated by 29 of the inner band 43 correspond to each other.

In the present invention, the lunar calendar display ring 4 may be in the form of a round band that can be arbitrarily rotated and fixed at a specific position, or may be a lid glass of a rotatable watch.

In the watch according to the present invention, a circular divider (5) having a 12 division scale at the same angle with respect to the center at the distal end portion, and a minute hand (6) rotated 360 degrees in an hour around the center of the divider (5). May be added.

In addition, in order to enhance the visual effect of the clock, the hour hand (2) and the moon hand (3) of the present invention, it is also possible to inscribe or hang the symbols symbolizing the sun and moon, respectively.

Although the shape of each plate in the present invention is described as 'circular', it is not necessarily 'circular', it means a somewhat modified 'circular' or 'elliptical' that can be applied in a conventional watch, and the degree of deformation Is a range of applications that can be applied to those skilled in the art. In the present specification including the following detailed description and claims, it is used in the same sense as above.

In addition, the term 'clockwise' in the present specification means that the clock rotates from the upper end to the right in a clock with a conventional meaning. In the present specification including the following detailed description and claims, it is used in the same sense as above.

In the present invention, between each time scale or time scale of the market (1) can be displayed a number from 1 to 24, or a number from 1 to 12 representing the morning, and from 1 to 12 continuously representing the afternoon, In the latter case, the morning and afternoon numbers can be displayed in different colors or with different brightness or saturation to facilitate the display of the morning and afternoon, with the brightest number at noon, gradually darkening until midnight, and beyond midnight. It may be marked again in writing.

In the present invention, the minute divisions of the separation plate 5 may indicate the number of 0, 10, 20, ..., 50 or the number of 0, 15, 30, 45 for convenience.

The rotation direction of the hour hand (2) and the moon hand (3) of the present invention can be arbitrarily determined, except that when the hands rotate counterclockwise, the order of the hour and minute indicators is counterclockwise, ), The date order is clockwise, and when each hand rotates clockwise, the display order of hours and minutes is clockwise, but the date order of the lunar calendar display ring 4 is counterclockwise.

Unlike the usual clock which is divided into 12 clock plates, the hour hand 2 turns a day, the minute hand 6 turns 24 times an hour, and the second hand turns once a minute, displaying the time. The watch utilizes a 24-hour system in which the hour hand (2) is rotated once a day in the market (1) divided into 24 parts. The hour hand (2) rotates once a day on the market (1) with 24 hourly divided intervals, while the hour hand (1) rotates once a day. 6) shows one minute at a specific time while making one revolution per hour. At this time, the division lines divided into subdivisions as necessary may be displayed between the division displays to determine the minutes of a specific time or to accurately read the minutes at the commercial market 1 alone.

The moon revolves about 12.2 °° (= 360 ° ÷ 29.5) in the direction of the Earth's rotation while the Earth rotates once a day against the sun, so the moon's mid-hour time on earth is delayed by about 50 minutes. Accordingly, in the present invention, the positional relationship between the sun and the moon according to the rotational phenomenon of the earth and the moon's revolution phenomenon is displayed on the clock, and the hour hand (2) rotates 360 ° in 24 hours to indicate the lunar date, and the hour hand (3) Rotate 347.8 ° in 24 hours in the same direction as the hour hand (2). That is, the twelve months 3 is delayed by 12.2 ° than the hour hand 2, and the principle of reading the lunar date in the present invention is that the delay angle of 12.2 ° is one space on the lunar display ring 4 of the present invention. 12.2 °). Every twenty-four hours, the moon hand 3 of the present invention is to rotate less by an angle corresponding to one day on the lunar calendar 4 than the hour hand 2.

Hereinafter, a method of reading the current time and the current lunar day from the clock of the present invention configured as described above will be described. For convenience of explanation, in the watch of the present invention, each hand rotates in the clockwise direction, and the numerals of the lunar calendar display ring 4 are arranged in the counterclockwise direction. It is also assumed that the separating plate 5 and the minute hand 6 are installed.

In the present invention, since the method of use is slightly different depending on the type of the lunar calendar display ring 4, each of them will be described separately.

First, the lunar calendar display ring (4) is formed when six graduations are formed at the same angle with respect to the center, and the graph display lines 41 and the numbers of 5, 10. 15, 20, and 25 are continuously displayed on each graduation. (FIGS. 1 and 2). First, the hour hand (2) and minute hand (6) is adjusted to specify the current time so that the clock is turned. At noon, the lunar lunar display ring 4 is fixed by rotating the lunar lunar display ring 4 so that the hour hand 2 coincides with the histogram line 41, and then the lunar tip is attached to the portion of the lunar lunar display ring 4 corresponding to the number corresponding to the current lunar date. (3) should match. The minute hand 6, the hour hand 2 and the moon hand 3 are each rotated according to a predetermined speed and manner. In order to know the lunar date at a specific time, the lunar lunar display ring 4 is rotated so that the glyph line 41 and the hour hand 2 coincide. At this time, if the position of the lunar lunar display ring (4) indicated by the hand (3) can know the lunar day of the approximate day. For example, the state as shown in FIG. 1 is about 6:55 am, and the sun and moon are about 100 ° away from the earth. In this case, as shown in FIG. 2, when the lunar display ring 4 is rotated to match the indication line 41 with the hour hand 2, the lunar hand 3 indicates that the direction of the lunar hand 3 is located at the top of the display of 20 so that the lunar calendar is approximately 21 days You can see immediately.

As a second type of lunar lumen display ring (4), the lunar lunar display ring (4) is divided into an outer band (42), an inner band (43), and two round bands by a circle passing through the middle of the ring. In the band, 1 to 29 are displayed in order in 29 sections each formed at 12.2 ° with respect to the center, and 30 is displayed in one section of 6.2 ° which is the remaining angle, and the beginning of the section in which 1 of the outer band 42 is displayed. A usage method in the case where the line and the end line of the section marked 29 of the inner band 43 coincide with each other will be described. First, the hour hand (2) and minute hand (6) is adjusted to specify the current time so that the clock is turned. At noon, the hour hand (2) is on the line between 1 and 30 of the outer band 42 of the lunar lunar display ring 4 if the current is a large moon, and between 1 and 30 of the inner band 43 if the moon is a small moon. The lunar lunar display ring 4 is rotated and fixed so as to coincide with the lunar lunar calendar. ) Matches. The minute hand 6, the hour hand 2 and the moon hand 3 are each rotated according to a predetermined speed and manner. To know the lunar date at a particular time, if the current is a large moon in the lunar calendar, on the line between 1 and 30 of the outer band 42 of the lunar lunar display ring 4, and on the line between 1 and 30 of the inner band 43 for the small moon, The lunar calendar display ring 4 is rotated and fixed so that the hour hand 2 coincides, and the number displayed on the section on the lunar calendar display ring 4 indicated by the moon hand 3 becomes the lunar date of the day. At this time, if the current is a large moon in the lunar calendar, the outer band 42, the small moon reads the number of the inner band 43. For example, the state as shown in FIG. 3 is around 9:18 pm, when the sun sets over the horizon and the moon appears in the sky. In this case, as shown in FIG. 4 (assuming that the current is a small moon as the lunar calendar), the lunar calendar display ring 4 is rotated and fixed so that the hour hand 2 coincides with the line between 1 and 30 of the inner band 43. It can be seen from the number displayed in the inner band 43 section indicated by 3) that the day is the lunar calendar nine days.

On the other hand, in the type of the second lunar lunar display ring 4 of the present invention, the arrow to the 30 mark of the inner band 43 is indicated by the 30 marks of the outer band 42, and the outer band 42 is indicated by the 29 marks of the inner band 43. An arrow to 1 mark may be displayed. By these arrows, the user can easily determine the lunar date before and after the group. In the case of a change from the lunar month to the moon, the morning of the 30th day of the lunar month indicates that the moon hand (3) matches the outer band (42) 30 mark, in the afternoon the arrow indicates the inner band (43) 30 mark, the next day. It is possible to read that 1 day of the lunar calendar is indicated by indicating 1 mark of the inner band 43. In addition, if the lunar month changes from a small moon to a large moon, the lunar calendar 29 days, the lunar month (3) coincides with the 29 mark of the inner band 43, the next day in accordance with the arrow to indicate the 1 mark of the outer band 42 to the lunar calendar 1 You can see it's work.

In the present specification, only the shape structure of each plate and the rotational speed of each needle are described, but a person skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains can easily implement the watch of the present invention by understanding the description of the present specification. That is, the clock of the present invention may be made not only by a mechanical method by a combination of a driving device and a tooth having a specific rotation ratio, but also by a display device such as a liquid crystal or a monitor by an electronic method.

The clock of the present invention makes it possible to grasp the time and the lunar date relatively easily, and also to visually recognize the actual positional relationship between the earth, the sun and the moon.

This is useful for those who need a lunar date, and knowing the lunar date can know the form of the moon, that is, the full moon, the moon, the moon, the new moon, and so on. .
