Description

Electronic rosary, (l /// g U

The invention relates to religious objects, namely, rosary. The rosary is used by followers of various faiths - Christians, Muslims, Buddhists, etc. - to account for prayers, mantras and nods.

The rosary is known, which is a lace in the form of a ring, with nodules or beads located on it, the number of which ranges from 10 to 100. The Great Soviet Encyclopedia. - M .: Soviet Encyclopedia, 1979, Volume 29, p. 123. On some rosaries there are two types of nodules: small and large. Small nodules are used to count units. Large - for counting dozens. The principle of operation of the known device is as follows: after reading another short prayer, a person selects the next knot with his fingers. If the knot is large, this means that the cycle of ten prayers is over. If all the nodes of the known device are enumerated, then the end of the rosary is reached. In this case, the cycle, including a certain number of prayers, is completed. The rosary thus allows the mechanical recounting of prayers. Significant signs of the rosary include:

-increase the account by one when moving to the next knot

-Reset to zero when choosing the initial knot of the rosary

capacity, i.e. the number of nodules in the beads

-the presence of two types of nodules in some beads: small for counting units and large for counting dozens

The main disadvantages of the known device are the following:

Small capacity: usually not more than 100.

-Direct relationship between the size (or length) of the beads and capacity.

- the large size of the well-known rosary: this creates difficulties when using them in ordinary life: in transport, at work, at home, etc.

- margin of error: in order not to lose count, you must constantly hold the knot with your fingers. If you release the knot, the score will be lost.

The technical result to which this invention is directed is to reduce the size, ease of use, increase the accuracy and capacity of the beads.

The technical result is achieved by the use of an electronic device containing:

electronic circuit for storing the number of clicks

- reset button to O

unit increment button

-indicator (liquid crystal or LED) for outputting readings having several decimal places

- feedback element, notifying the user of the invention that the readings of the device are multiples of 10, 100, 1000; Alert may be due to electrical impulse or vibration

and power supply

The electrical circuit of the invention is shown in FIG. 1. The diagram shows the following parts:

1- power supply

2- button “increase by 1

3- button “reset to O

4- electronic circuit for storing readings

5- indicator for visualization of readings of electronic beads, e.g. LCD

6- feedback element

Two constructive implementations of the proposed device are possible. In a first implementation, FIG. 2, the indicator for visualization is inside the case with others

device components. In a second implementation, FIG. 3, the indicator is implemented as a separate device with which a user of electronic beads can take readings of an electronic circuit, for example, via inductive coupling or via infrared and visualize them.

The geometric shape and dimensions of the invention are shown in FIG. 2 and 3 for two types of implementation:

10- case

11- strap and clasp

12- power supply, buttons "increase by 1 and" reset to O, electronic circuit and feedback element.

13- indicator for view of the device readings

The geometric shape of electronic beads has the following features. The case with the strap has the shape of a ring with an inner diameter of 15-50mm. A strap with a clasp allows you to fix the invention on the phalanx of the middle finger or on the phalanges of the middle and ring finger. Depending on the type of implementation, components are placed in the case with or without an indication indicator.

The essential features of the invention include: storage in the memory of the electronic circuit of the meter reading (current number of clicks)

-increase the counter by one when you click on the button "increase by 1

- feedback mechanism to alert the user of electronic beads that the number of clicks is a multiple of 10,100,1000

reset to zero by pressing the “reset to O” button

- visualization of the indications of the invention on the indicator

The technical result achieved by using the invention is as follows:

- the error of electronic beads is zero, because readings are stored in the memory of the electronic circuit

-the capacity of the proposed device exceeds the capacity of the known device several times and is limited only by the indicator bit

- the dimensions of the invention are several times smaller than the known device and are independent of capacity

ease of wearing and use due to the geometric shape and

case dimensions with straps and clasp

Electronic beads work as follows. The invention is worn on the phalanx of the middle finger or two phalanges of the middle and ring finger. For ease of wearing and use, the case is fixed on the finger using a strap with a clasp. It is mounted on a finger in the same way as a wristwatch on a hand. At the beginning of the work, it is reset to O by pressing the "reset to O" button. Next, during the day, the user of this device with his thumb presses the "increase by 1" button, simultaneously with the reading of prayers, mantras and bows. When the readings of the invention are a multiple of 10, 100 or 1000, the feedback element generates a signal notifying the user of the invention of the occurrence of the corresponding event. The feedback element directly touches the user's finger and acts on his skin by vibration or electric microdischarge. If the indicator is in the body of electronic beads, then to visualize the number of clicks, just turn on the indicator. To reduce the geometric dimensions of the indicator built into the case, it is proposed to make it single-digit, and display the readings bitwise with a time interval of 1 second. If the indicator is implemented as a separate device, then before the readings are visualized, they must be removed or read from the electronic circuit. This is accomplished by bringing the indicator into contact with the body of the invention.
