-The contiguous part of the common pending application serial number 09 / 619,368, which is the contiguous part of the application serial number sugar 82,479 filed on 01/12 '2_, has been abandoned. The present invention is related to timekeeping, especially the use of a digital time display for a typical ten-day personal individual to perform his or her daily activities while watching and recording its time. The description of the quaternary digital time display is shown in U.S. Patent No. 4,271'297, which is disclosed and incorporated herein by reference. Those displays include the centrally positioned month M and hour numbers, that is, during the first and second quarter-hours, the increased minute numbers are displayed above and below the right abdomen. After that, the next small number is added, that is, during the third and fourth quarter-hours, the number of minutes will be displayed at the lower and upper positions of the left abdomen. In this way, four quarter-hours can be precisely defined, balanced, and visually distinguished. At the same time, the elapsed and future times can be viewed in the first and second halves of each hour, respectively. Some of the characteristics of the quadruple-balanced displays that are now being cut are not optimal. In particular, when displaying the first to fourth quarterly hours, the corresponding minute display occupies only a limited portion of the entire space around the centrally positioned hour. Throughout the hour, most of its space remained completely unused, making some viewers feel incomplete and contrary or unfair media ideas that these rooms were not functional throughout the display, at least at the time remaining blank. In contrast and for example, most traditional disc watches and clocks do not have this similar feature. They usually have four to twelve hour numbers, with the amount subtracted squared and or

As shown in FIG. 10, the element 10 is compared with the 10th figure, and so on. In addition, it is useful to include the display element 130 to display the first two-letter code of the day of the week. An additional element 132 is included to display the date of the number of days. . The main difference between Fig. 1 and Fig. 10 is that all the display elements of the latter have ends, and their shapes are substantially symmetrical arrows or spear tips, which contain substantial angles. These tips are spaced apart and packed as closely as possible so that the space between them is substantially 4-5. Tilt alignment is preferred. As a result, all the time values shown by the element 110 · 124 in the figure ^ 〇 have strong symmetry in size and shape. In addition, the components inside the board shown in Figure 10, 6 and 120 corners (marked 126 128), are similar to those contained in the solid circle in the figure. They have different shapes from the corner components 26 and 28 of Figure 2. . The latter contains four pairs of marks, each element is substantially parallelogram in shape, and the opposite side is parallel. In Fig. 10, similar marks include element pairs, each having a trapezoidal shape, and only one pair parallel to each other. As a result, the marks in Fig. 10 each extend to a quarter of the mark, and the proximal end is a diffusive inclined edge, and the opposite end is a square step straight edge. This produces a distinguishable shape, which expands and enlarges to four quarters of the second half. Please read the meaning of the back first.

The differences in component size and shape symmetry and the different shapes of these marks can be seen by comparison from the representative displays in Figures mm4_7. The description of Figures 12A-12D is derived from Figure 10 Marking changes, providing a more orderly and streamlined four-hour mark order than Figures 11A-11D. In Figures 12A-12D, only minute elements similar to Figure 丨 0 are displayed to generate this mark. The corners of the board are separated, and some are enlarged for easy understanding. As shown in the figure, in each of these pairs, the second component of the open line extends from the tip of the element, and passes through each element at an acute angle until it reaches the water inside. It is separated from the vertical edge. Therefore, the triangular part formed by these end points of the minute element can be actuated separately, resulting in a quartile hour mark with a shape that is not the same as that of the 13th and 13th. The markings are the same. The markings in Figures 13 A-13D point to the minute position marked by the inner edge of its more proximal spread, but extend back to its opposite distal point. This shape is more like a quarter The shape of the digital minutes displayed during the hour, so it is also used as a reminder mark to inform the viewer that the position of the mark will be used to display the time of the appropriate period of each hour.

Equad-T is shorthand for the enhanced quaternary equilibrium time display of the present invention, as previously explained above. Therefore, the crown button is placed on the CR seven, which is provided to the viewer: the type of display. Or, when the crown button is moved to its CR-0 position, as shown in the first step below the title, 'The display is automatically switched to the digital time of the display system (abbreviated as "Elap-T"), & includes the center The elapsed minutes after the positioning of the little sun guarding the right abdomen and the upper right position, and the time below the hour = elapsed seconds. These time values are at the same time as the crown button at the CR_〇 position, and are maintained throughout the hour to distinguish the time setting mode from the time when the crown is set or reset when the crown button returns to the CR] position. At the time, the stored enhanced quaternary balance real-time mode is disclosed in the related US Patent No. 5, ⑻, 733 and is hereby incorporated by reference. This contrast is increased to eliminate the mark which is usually included in the second, third and fourth quarters of small quarters, which is generally included in the time of strengthening the quaternary balance, to strengthen the viewer's confirmation and understanding Time setting mode, that is, the time setting mode when the crown button is moved to its CR_0 position. To continue the description of the time setting function on the left of the chart in Figure 14, you must know that each continuous function is selected and flashed by the crown button TR-BA rotation, and then each such function is set by the crown button TR-FO rotation. Until the correct value is reached on the display. In addition, during any selected time setting sequence, the display can return to the real time 'gp to move the crown button back to its CR] position and move back to set the Equad-T time, as indicated by the arrow on the right side of each function It is indicated that this is also similar to that of U.S. Patent No. 5,182,733. Therefore, during the setting process, all TR_BA rotations are selected by the flashing setting function, and all TR-FO rotations are the exclusive setting flashing power shovel.

Finally, refer to the title Set Alann Time. As mentioned earlier, when the crown is in the CR-I position, repeating the 2TR-BA rotation will activate and deactivate the warning indicators. Therefore, as shown in the chart, in order to prepare and set a selected warning time, the activated warning symbol / function is first established on the display by the crown button Ding, 38-turn. Then the crown button is shifted to its CR_〇 position, which can be programmed to store the previously set warning time of the EqUad 矸 time in the display, which corresponds to the enhanced quaternary equilibrium time, which should include a four-minute warning time. Corresponding markers for special positions, such as the icon of the related fourth quarter position, and the display of seconds that are not included in the setting of any warning time are appropriate. In addition, the hours and minutes of the last warning time set previously should be without initial flicker, because the accurate real-time time source displayed does not need to be synchronized with this time. Therefore, the warning time setting that enables such an enhanced quaternary balanced display can provide the viewer a clear comparison with the traditional Elap-T time used to set or reset the real-time time display, as previously explained. The selection and setting of% 'time will be explained in the rest of the headings under the chart * Set Alarm Ding Hua ^. Once again, all the settings of the tr_b_ motion selection and flashing functions, and the selection of all TR-FO rotation settings. During any selection, shift the crown to its position to return the display to EqUad-T time. Preferably, when the self-warning setting operation returns to the real time, the warning symbol should be kept in the display, so that the viewer can ensure that the alarm will sound at the set time. After that, one TR-BA rotation will turn off the stylized audible alarm and its symbol until the same warning time is re-activated by another -TR-BA rotation, and the warning and its symbol in its display will be restored, or until the procedure described above is explained.
