Description

Clock that notifies time by color change of light {Clock for notifying time using to change color of light}

The present invention relates to a clock which notifies time by the color change of light, more specifically, by displaying the state of the sky changing with time such as starlight of night, dawn light, daylight, It is about a clock that tells the time by the color change of the light that enables the occupant to feel the flow of time more naturally than the list of numbers.

Generally, the most important option when entering the school is the presence of windows. The presence of windows is important because the absence of windows is primarily linked to mining or ventilation, but more deeply, by blurring the temporal distinction between day and night, the inhabitants' notion of time and, furthermore, It destroys it. The absence of a window leads directly to the absence of light, and in a narrow and dark room that 'always blinks when you open your eyes', residents feel helpless as if time has stopped. This is why many residents of the Gospel and Civil Service are suffering from claustrophobia, mental illnesses such as depression and insomnia. I have come to think of a clock that can provide the psychological side of the window instead for the difficulties and suffering people experience in this situation.

This product is an electronic watch that takes the form of a window (see Fig. 3). However, it does not explain the flow of time by simply dividing it by the letters 'am' and 'pm', but it distinguishes it from conventional watches in that it displays the color and light intensity of continuously changing window glass. As shown in FIG. 3, by displaying the state of the sky changing with time such as starlight of the night, dawn light, daytime sunlight, and glowing light, the residents can feel the flow of time more naturally than a simple number sequence.

The key technology to control this color and brightness was 'LED lighting' technology. Because LED uses RGB colors of Red, Green, and Blue, it can express all colors combining light of three colors using light emission wavelength of semiconductor. However, after several visits to the present market and trends of LED technology, it has been found out that there is no controller that can only express the brightness and color of desired LED lighting at the same time theoretically. In addition, when developing this new technology, we needed a development cost approaching 10 million won, which was not suitable for our product direction that we want to be used by the public as an interior accessory. In addition, it has been recommended various existing display technologies such as LCD panel and digital album which can play videos and pictures, but this was also not suitable as a high-technology product of million won.

The present invention was developed to solve such a problem. The present invention was inspired by the structure of the existing 'LED light panel', and the role of adjusting the lightness of light and the role of controlling the color are respectively divided into LED and output, The object of the present invention is to provide a clock which notifies time by color change.

In order to achieve the above object, according to the present invention,

A window frame frame surrounding the interior space and having a front surface opened; a conveyor belt installed in the window frame frame accommodation space for rotating the output product having different sky colors to distinguish between day and night; A timer switch installed on the stage and having a motor for rotating the conveyor belt by a predetermined interval for 24 hours, a semitransparent acrylic installed on the opened front side of the window frame, a light guide plate provided below the conveyor belt, And a controller for controlling the amount of output of the LED lamp by a set time unit. The LED lamp may include a reflective film disposed on a lower portion of the reflective film, a heat sink provided on a lower portion of the reflective film, LED lamps disposed on both sides of the light pipe, .

Preferably, the output is formed to have a width smaller than that of the light guide plate, and protrusions are formed on a bottom surface of the light guide plate corresponding to a width larger than the width of the output, so that output is not caught.

The present invention can be applied to people who live in a place that is included in 'extreme housing type' such as an apartment house, a subway, or a side street, or a person who lives in the city of Goshi, To provide psychological ventilation and mining that could not be solved by the ventilator installed on the ceiling, thereby providing psychological stability, comfort, and natural comfort by alleviating the helplessness, frustration and depression. In addition, it can be applied to buildings lacking all kinds of windows, as well as educational and public areas such as medical buildings and offices such as hospitals, commercial buildings such as hospitals, kindergartens, etc., as well as poverty residents, and also applicable to elevators and the like.

For reference, while investigating the current LED technology to further implement the product, it was found that the product could also be competitive in the advertisement display market.

LED lighting technology has been applied to various signs such as advertisement signboards, lighting displays, etc. due to the advantages of LED bulbs such as a semi-permanent lifetime of about 50,000 hours and low power consumption. Commercial displays are divided into two types, LED light panel and DID. DID can display multiple advertisements with various animation effects, whereas a light panel can show only one advertisement. However, there were large price differences between the two products, 100,000 won and 2,000,000 won, respectively, indicating that mid-tier advertisers were having difficulty choosing.

This product can be provided at an additional cost of about 10,000 won for the price of existing LED light panel, so it can solve the cost troubles of middle-level advertisers who want to display more than one output but can not buy expensive DID. The current advertisement can be aimed at a gap in the market of the signboard display.

FIG. 1 (a) is an exploded view of a clock indicating time by color change of light according to the present invention, and FIG. 1 (b) is a sectional view of a clock indicating time by color change of light according to the present invention.

As shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B, according to the present invention, only the strength of sunlight (brightness of light) according to a day time is realized using a conventional LED light panel and a controller, In addition, we have solved the problem by setting the time position inside the panel to rotate the output on the panel by a certain amount of time (that is, the controller in the panel could freely express the desired intensity in the lightness of light, In this case, it is difficult to express the color of the sky because it can not change within five colors of red, yellow, blue, green and white which are predetermined. Therefore, by using the conventional LED light panel and controller, (Brightness of light), but the changing color of the sky (color of light) additionally sets the time position inside the panel. The problem is solved by the structure that rotates the output which is climbing on the damper panel by a certain amount of time.

Specifically, the window frame 101 surrounds the inner space and has an open front side. The output window 102 is provided in the space for accommodating the window frame 101, and rotates output images having different sky colors, A timer switch 103 installed at both ends of the conveyor belt 102 and equipped with a motor for rotating the conveyor belt 102 by a predetermined interval for 24 hours, A translucent acrylic 104 installed on the opened front face of the light guide plate 105 for guiding the LED light toward the output, a light guide plate 105 installed below the light guide plate 105, A reflective film 106 for reflecting the light toward the light guide plate 105, a heat dissipation plate 107 provided below the reflective film 106, and a light guide plate 105 disposed on both sides of the light guide plate 105 for emitting LED light toward the light guide plate 105 An internal controller (not shown) for controlling the output of the LED lamp 108 and the LED lamp 108 so that the output amount of the LED lamp 108 is mapped by each predetermined time according to a set time unit (for example, one hour unit) .

Here, first, an LED light panel in which an internal controller (i.e., an internal controller that controls the amount of output of the LED lamp by a set time unit) is installed, and the brightness of the automatic LED light is set to change every one hour. For reference, it may be cost-effective to operate the controller using a commercially available controller without requiring any additional development.

[Table 1] shows the LED output per hour divided by 24 hours a day.

Next, the changing sky color is outputted on the transparent film sheet as a single long image, and then the end and the end are connected to rotate on the LED light guide plate 105 like the conveyor belt 102.

Here, the part timer switch 103 takes over the role of the conveyor roller.

The timer switch 103 is an electronic 24-hour timer, unlike a mechanical timer, which is designed not to use gears and to make no operational noise and to rotate exactly one turn for 24 hours.

It requires a small size and power, and has a low output, but it is not too difficult to move a thin film.

Accordingly, the output product moving by the timer switch 103 is fused together with the light of the LED light guide plate 105, so that the sky color of the corresponding time can be realized.

FIG. 2A is a first drawing showing a relation between an output and a light guide plate according to the present invention, and FIG. 2B is a second diagram showing a relationship between an output and a light guide plate according to the present invention.

As shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, a clock according to the present invention is manufactured with a smaller width than that of the light guide plate, and a protrusion is formed on a bottom surface (shaded portion) of the light guide plate corresponding to a width larger than the width of the output So that the output is not caught.

FIG. 3 is a view showing a sky color changing according to time according to the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 3, the present invention is an electronic watch that takes the form of a window. However, it does not explain the flow of time by simply dividing it by the letters 'am' and 'pm', but it distinguishes it from conventional watches in that it displays the color and light intensity of continuously changing window glass.

In other words, as shown in Fig. 3, by expressing the state of the sky changing with time such as the starlight of the night, the dawn light, the daylight sunlight, and the glowing light, .
