Description

Counting device

Technical field

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention This invention relates to a counting device, and more particularly to a counting device that counts when a rosary is held and the rosary is operated by a thumb.

Background technique

Rosary, or beads, also known as beads, is a circular bead string formed by a string of beads running through a string. It is a Buddhist practitioner who records each chanting of Buddha’s name, sutra or mantra by granules. The number of times the instrument. In recent years, with the richness of spiritual life, more and more people like to wear the rosary called the bead bracelet on their wrists as an ornament, and often habitually remove the rosary from the wrist and hang it in the hand. Use the thumb to lick each rosary to comfort the soul. The number of beads running through the beads bracelet is generally 12 to 108. The number of beads on the head and neck of a professional Buddhist practitioner is generally 108. Traditional rosary or today's popular bead bracelets, for professional practitioners and ordinary people, if they want to count on the rosary beads completely, they are subject to the number of rosary beads, and often have to be distracted for counting operations. . Because even the rosary of 108 beads, in the speed of one rosary for one second, the beads on the whole rosary will be smashed in less than 2 minutes, and less than 2 minutes. The time is not enough to satisfy the needs of the soul, let alone to meet the counting needs of professional Buddhist practitioners.

According to the Buddhist scriptures, the longest rosary can have 1080 beads. Although such a long rosary can meet the needs of comforting the soul or professional practice to a certain extent, it is obviously not convenient to carry and wear on the wrist as a bead bracelet ornament. . Even if the diameter of the beads is small, and the beads of 1080 beads are wound around the wrist, the beads that are too small in diameter are not convenient to count with the thumb. Moreover, according to the Buddhist scriptures, if you want to achieve a certain comforting effect, you need to recite tens of thousands or even hundreds of millions of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas or curses, so you want to use ordinary rosary or bead bracelets to comfort you. The mind counting tool is difficult to implement. For example, the Buddhist scriptures of the Bodhisattva Bodhisattva, which is widely known in the folk, has such a passage in the chapter of "Seeing the Interests" that is related to the number of times of the name of the Bodhisattva: "Fu The Bodhisattva Guanyin Bodhisattva, if there are men and women in the future, or when they are breastfeeding, or when they are three years old, five years old and ten years old, they have lost their parents and lost brothers and sisters. They are grown up in the same year, thinking about their parents and all the genus, not knowing In what kind of interest, what kind of world, what is born in heaven. If a person can paint a picture of a bodhisattva, it is even more famous and famous. From day to day, it is famous and worthy of support. It is a genus, a fake Because of the evils of the industry, it is counted as a robbery. The brothers and sisters of the brothers and sisters, the statues of the brothers and sisters, the statues of the statues, the merits, the liberation, the birth of the heavens, the victory of the wonderful music. It is a genus, if there is a blessing, If you are a man of heaven, you will win the wonderful music. That is to say, Cheng Cheng merits, and increase the cause of the Holy Spirit, and enjoy the music. It is better for people to hide their images in the middle of the 3rd and 7th, and read their names, full of thousands of times. The bodhisattva is now infinite, and it is said that the human being is a human being. Or in the dream, the Bodhisattva is now a great power. The collar is a human being, and you can see all the genus in the world. You can read the name of the Bodhisattva thousands of times a day. As for the thousand days, it is the life and protection of the ghosts and gods in the land where the Buddha is deported. The world is full of food and clothing, no suffering, and even no matter. Into the door, not to mention the body, is that after all, people have to give the Buddha to the top of the statue." Another example, as a rosary and the use of rosary counting of the origin and origin of the Buddhist scriptures "Buddha said Muzizijing" in a paragraph about chanting The scriptures of the number of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are: "If you want to destroy troubles and troubles, you should be a self-sufficient person. If you walk, if you are sitting, if you are lying, you should always be attentive. Distracted meaning, said Buddha, Dharma, Sangha name, is a wooden scorpion, if it is gradually wooden scorpion, if ten, if twenty, if hundreds, if thousands, or even hundreds of millions. If you can twenty Ten thousand times, the mind and body are not chaotic, there is no such thing as a distorted person, and the third flame day is given to life, and the food and clothing are natural, and Chang’an is happy. If the person can recover a million times, when it is broken, the first name will be born and died. Flow, fun to muddy, never worry about the roots, get the fruit." There are hand-held mechanical counters on the market. And electronic counters are sold for professional Buddhist practitioners to count. Although these professional counters can easily handle tens of millions of counting operations, these counters can't be used as a rosary to comfort the minds of ordinary people and the decorative effect like a bead bracelet. In fact, professional practitioners and ordinary people who have a slight sense of identity with Dharma are also reluctant to use such non-traditional instruments, because in the Buddhist scriptures, only the rosary is used as a counting tool, as quoted above. The scriptures of the Scorpion.

Although the rosary itself is only a Buddhist instrument, in view of the extensiveness of Buddhism in the crowd and the long history of its history, its role in comforting the soul cannot be underestimated. In reality, it is often good. The effect is even indispensable, especially for ordinary people and professional Buddhist practitioners who have a good impression or identity with some Buddhism. In order to make the ancient instrument of rosary play a good counting effect, there are many public technical solutions, but these solutions are often realized by modifying the structure of the rosary itself, and require additional users. The purchase of rosary beads with counting functions manufactured according to these technical solutions cannot directly utilize the existing rosary of the people. For example, the Chinese invention patent with the application number CN201420805937.1 needs to be extra stringed into a custom-made bead with a circuit board for counting, but in order to install the circuit board in the bead, the shape and appearance of the bead will be difficult. It is made to match the appearance of the beads in the original rosary, and the structure and material of the beads are obviously different from those of the other rosary in the original rosary. The imperfection compared with the traditional rosary is bound to make The user produces more or less dissatisfaction and affects the effect of comforting the mind. The Chinese invention patent with application number CN200820179104.3 needs to put a counting module into the rosary, and all the beads in the rosary should be modified and a conductive ring should be installed. If the original rosary of the user is to be modified, Not only the processing is difficult but also the appearance and material composition of the original rosary.

As shown in Figure 1, the traditional method of counting beads is usually to hang the rosary 1 on the middle phalanx 5 of the left and right index fingers or the proximal phalanx 6 of the index finger, and then use the distal phalanx 2 of the thumb of the same hand. The section of the section refers to the front end or the front end of each of the beads on the inner side of the palm of the hand. Since the beads on the beads of ordinary rosary or bead bracelets are unlikely to be tens of thousands, and the operation of the bead string does not produce an intuitive counting and recording reminder, the user wants to count by the operation of the traditional chanting beads. It must be distracted for counting when performing the rosary operation. Some rosary or bead bracelets will be additionally attached with a bead string or clip for counting. Each time the user has smashed the entire bead string, the bead string or clip for manual counting needs to be manually operated. In this way, it is very inconvenient for ordinary people and professional Buddhist practitioners who are sympathetic to the mourning beads to be distracted when they are tempted to rosary.

FIG. 2 to FIG. 5 are schematic diagrams showing the appearance and use of two types of counters currently on the market. FIG. 2 shows a hand-operated mechanical counter having a pressable mechanical counter. The lower pressing rod 7, when the pressing rod 7 is depressed, will drive the digital scale wheel 8 of the hand-held mechanical counter to perform one rotation from the lower position to the upper position to present the cumulative number of times. The hand-held mechanical counter also has a clear knob 9 for the user to rotate the digital scale wheel 8 to the zero position. As shown in Figures 1 and 3, when the hand-held mechanical counter is held by one hand for counting operation, the same hand can no longer hang the rosary on it to perform the operation of the rosary. 4 and 5 show a compact ring-shaped electronic counter having a strap 13 that can be attached to the index finger and a counter button 10 for the user to press a thumb to perform a counting operation. In addition, there is a digital display screen 11 that displays the cumulative number of counts and a reset clear button 12 of the display screen. As shown in FIG. 5, the two ends of the strap 13 have a bump array 131 and a through-hole array 132, respectively, and the plug-in combination between the bump array 131 and the via array 132 can be used. The ring-shaped electronic counter is firmly attached to the index fingers of different thicknesses of different users and then the user presses the count button 10 with the thumb to perform the counting operation. Similar to the aforementioned hand-held mechanical counter, due to the use of the ring-shaped electronic meter The indexer will occupy the index finger and the thumb, so the user can no longer use the same hand to hang the rosary for beading operation.

Summary of the invention

The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a counting device capable of counting the number of times of pulsation while swaying the rosary string.

The present invention employs three similar technical solutions to solve the above technical problems.

detailed description

The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments, wherein the first embodiment to the seventh embodiment are embodiments of the first technical solution of the present invention, and the eighth embodiment to the twelfth embodiment are the present invention. An embodiment of the second counting scheme, the thirteenth embodiment and the fourteenth embodiment are embodiments of the third counting scheme of the present invention.

Referring to Figure 1, each time the user incites each bead on the rosary 1 is primarily operated by a reciprocating downward bending motion of the distal phalanx 2 of the thumb relative to the proximal phalanx 3 of the thumb. The rosary is pressed down. When the user is licking the bead, the movement and position of the proximal phalanx 3 of the thumb and the first metacarpal 4 connecting the thumb are not changed greatly, and the section of the distal phalanx 2 of the user's thumb is pointed at the beading Follow the proximal phalanx 3 of the thumb near the index finger The reciprocating downward bending motion of the ring. As mentioned above, the user usually counts the front end or the front end of the finger of the distal phalanx 2 of the thumb near the inner side of the palm of the hand, and therefore counts each bead of the bead string. When you seduce the rosary, you don't need to occupy the thumb of the distal phalanx 2, which can be used to count the other parts of the lower phalanx where the thumb is located to synchronously drive the counting mechanism for counting. operating. Therefore, the counting device provided by the three technical solutions of the present invention is provided with a button connected to the counting mechanism under the distal phalanx 2 of the thumb, and the button is bent downward in the section where the distal phalanx 2 of the thumb is located. When the motion can be driven by it, the counting operation of the counting mechanism of the counting device can be directly or indirectly triggered, so that the user can synchronize with the modern advanced counting mechanism when performing the traditional operation of the beating rosary. Precise counting operation. Moreover, since the up and down bending motion of the distal phalanx 2 of the thumb when the rosary is moved is a completely spontaneous operation of the user, the user using the counting device provided by the present invention does not need to distract the counting operation when the rosary is moved. . The ordinary people wearing the counting device provided by the invention can concentrate on inciting the rosary to a certain precision to achieve the effect of comforting the soul. The professional Buddhist practitioner can recite the Buddha name or the curse at the same time. Accurate counting of the number of chanting is achieved in the traditional way of inciting rosary recorded in Buddhist scriptures.

In addition, there are often one or two so-called main beads or beads that are slightly larger than other beads in the beads of the current rosary or bead bracelet. Some main beads or beads are even olive-shaped and round-shaped. The beads and the beads of the bead bracelet are all non-standard rounded olive-shaped, round-shaped and other shaped beads. The operating principle of the counting device provided by the present invention is not for the movement of the bead itself but by the user. When you lick any bead on the bead string, the bending motion of the distal phalanx 2 of the thumb relative to the proximal phalanx 3 of the thumb triggers the counting operation of the counting mechanism, so it is easy to cope with all the above-mentioned sizes. A rosary or bead bracelet with a variety of shaped beads.

The counting device of the present embodiment also includes a bracket 14 and a button that can be extended and contracted relative to the bracket 14 outside the one end of the bracket 14. 15, And a support bracket 16 at the other end of the bracket 14 that is adjustable in length relative to the bracket 14. The inside of the bracket 14 does not have a counting mechanism. The counting mechanism 21 is located at one side of the bracket 14 and is connected to the bracket 14. The bracket 14 is provided with a mechanical linkage mechanism connected to the button 15, and the up and down movement of the button 15 passes through the linkage. The mechanism drives the counting mechanism 21 to perform a counting operation.

The bracket 14 is provided with a first slot 221 extending upwardly and upwardly for the button 15 to be inserted and moved up and down, and a second slot 222 extending transversely to the first slot 221, the button 15 facing the second slot 222 One side is provided with a diagonal groove 155 which is inclined upward toward the outer side. The second groove 222 is provided with a driving rod 223. The driving rod 223 is provided with a slanting plate 2231 matching the inclined groove 155. As the button 15 moves up and down, the drive lever 223 is driven to move outward, thereby driving the count button 211 of the counting mechanism 21 located at the outer end of the second slot 222. A first spring 226 is disposed between the button 15 and the bottom of the first slot 221 such that the button 15 has a tendency to always upward, and the counting button 211 of the counting device 21 connected to the outer end of the second slot 222 and the driving lever A second spring 227 is also provided between 223 such that the first drive rod 223 has a tendency to always face the inside of the bracket 14.

The counting mechanism 21 can be rotated about its position connected to the bracket 14, so that the orientation of the counting mechanism 21 can be easily adjusted to prevent the counting mechanism 21 from interfering with the fingers and the beads when the user shakes the rosary.

As shown in FIG. 23 to FIG. 28, a counting device provided by the eighth embodiment of the present invention adopts a U-shaped rigid bracket 31 and a section of a flexible connecting strap 36 fastened by the U-shaped wings thereof to be worn on the user's hand. On the palm, the end of the U-shaped bracket 31 abutting against the inner side of the palm is fastened by a mounting bracket 32 to be mounted with a counting mechanism 33 having an overall flat shape, and the button 15 of the counting mechanism 33 for exciting the counting operation is located. The user's thumb of the same hand is below the section where the distal phalanx 2 is located. The connecting belt 36 may be an elastic strap of an elastic band material of the textile industry or a strapping strap as used in the ring-shaped electronic counter described above, and the U-shaped bracket 31 will be under the tight binding of the connecting strap 36. A strong sleeve is worn on the lower part of the palm. As shown in FIG. 25 and FIG. 26, in the present embodiment, for a specific user, the U-shaped wings of the appropriate opening size will respectively abut against the inner side and the outer side surface of the palm, and the roots of the inner sides of the U-shaped wings will be Tightly abutting against the lower part of the palm, under the tight binding of the connecting belt 36, it is basically ensured that the U-shaped bracket is not easy to slide up and down with respect to the palm, and the U-shaped wings are always parallel to the inner and outer sides of the palm, so It is possible to provide the counting device with a rigid and stable support which can effectively prevent unnecessary rotation, thereby ensuring the stability of the mounting mechanism 32 mounted on the bracket 31 or the position of the counting mechanism 33 and its button 15 thereon. For users of different palm thicknesses, U-shaped brackets with different opening sizes are available.

Since the user wears the sacred bead at the same time in the same hand of the counting device, in the embodiment, in order to avoid the counting mechanism 33 and its button 15 from interfering with the rosary and accurately catering to the thumb The downward bending motion of the section of the distal phalan 2 is to ensure a successful firing of the counting operation while at the same time avoiding too much hindrance and interference to the user's normal rosary operation, the counting mechanism 33 and The up and down position of the button 15 and the distance from the inner side of the palm and the angle of inclination with respect to the vertical direction need to be adjustable. The flat shape of the counting mechanism 33 is also designed to minimize space occupation and avoid The rosary on the palm interferes. In general, the button 15 can be adjusted to be located near the root of the finger of the thumb where the distal phalanx 2 is located, so that it is less likely to interfere with the rosary that is hung on the user's index finger. The front end of the finger that prevents the user from using the distal phalanx 2 of the thumb operates the rosary. In order to facilitate the above adjustment, in the present embodiment, the counting mechanism 33 and its button 15 are fastened to the bracket 31 by a mounting bracket 32. As shown in FIG. 23 to FIG. 25 and FIG. 27 and FIG. 28, in the embodiment, the mounting frame 32 has an array of mounting holes 39 below, so that Adjusting the mounting bracket 32 to the bracket 31 by selecting mounting holes of different upper and lower positions in the mounting hole array 39 to adjust the upper and lower mounting positions of the mounting bracket 32 relative to the bracket 31 to adjust the The upper and lower positions of the counting mechanism 33 and the button 15 are adjusted, and the mounting mechanism 32 or the counting mechanism 33 and the button 15 thereon can be moved from the inner side of the palm by adjusting the amount of the washer 213 between the mounting frame 32 and the bracket 31. The distance is thus adapted to different users; in the present embodiment, in order to facilitate adjustment of the tilt angle of the counting mechanism 33 and its button 15, the counting mechanism 33 is fastened to the mounting by a support plate 35. Above the frame 32, the support plate 35 is mounted on the mounting frame 32 by two mounting holes 351 below it. As shown in FIG. 23 to FIG. 25 and FIG. 27 and FIG. 28, the mounting bracket 32 has two arc-shaped supporting plate mounting grooves 40 on the same circumferential line, so that two of the supporting plates 35 can pass through. The mounting holes 351 are fastened in different orientations in the two arcuate support plate mounting slots 40 to achieve continuous inclination of the support plate 35 or even the button 15 fastened to the support plate 35. Fine adjustment is made to avoid interference of the counting mechanism 33 and its button 15 or even the support plate 35 with the rosary 1 attached to the palm of the user. Similarly, in order to continuously and finely adjust the upper and lower height positions of the counting mechanism 33 and its button 15, the mounting hole array 39 below the mounting frame 32 can also be replaced with a straight groove similar to the supporting plate mounting groove 40.

Preferably, the surface on which the outer end of the button 15 is pressed is in the shape of a centrally inwardly recessed shape, so that the one finger of the distal phalanx 2 of the thumb can be automatically centered when the button 15 is pressed, and Ensure the stability and effectiveness of the pressing effect. In addition, in order to facilitate the user to provide an intuitive counting result, the outside of the counting mechanism 33 has a digital display screen 37 showing the cumulative number of times the user has moved the rosary, and also has an external speaker 38. The external speaker 38 can play a prompt sound when the counting times reach the number set by the user, so that the user can accurately complete the jewel bracelet by rotating the whole rosary or even a dozen beads. The count of times and even more times can also achieve the function of playing a Buddhist scripture or a piece of music while the user is inciting the rosary or the bead bracelet, thereby producing a better comforting effect.

29 to 31 show a ninth embodiment of the present invention, wherein FIG. 29 shows a schematic view of the ninth embodiment using the U-shaped bracket 31, and FIG. 31 shows a schematic view of the ninth embodiment using the L-shaped bracket 31. . Compared with the eighth embodiment, in the ninth embodiment, the rigid U-shaped or L-shaped bracket 1 is located on the upper portion of the palm when being worn on the palm of the user, so that compared with the eighth embodiment When the button 15 is pressed down by the user, the spatial position of the counting mechanism 33 and its button 15 is more secure, because the rigid U-shaped or L-shaped bracket 31 does not resemble the eighth embodiment. The flexible connecting strip 6 located on the palm portion is likely to be stretched with a significant displacement in the up and down direction because of its own rigid material and a bent structure that abuts against the end face of the palm. However, conversely, the eighth embodiment can give the user a more compliant feel than the ninth embodiment, because in the eighth embodiment, even if the counting mechanism 33 and the button 15 are pressed to the utmost extent A certain degree of stretching by the upper flexible elastic connecting band 36 can also bring a certain cushion to the user's thumb and attach the lower U-shaped bracket 31 by the elasticity of the connecting belt 36 after the thumb is lifted up. The mounting frame 32 thereon and the counting mechanism 33 and button 15 are pulled back to their original height positions. In fact, in the eighth embodiment and the ninth embodiment, in order to bring a softer hand feeling to the user, in the case where the connecting belt 36 which is not very elastically deformed is selected, the mounting bracket 32 is even completely tight. It is fixed on the connecting belt 36, and it is not necessarily required to be fastened to the bracket 31.

The ninth embodiment shown in Fig. 31 adopts an L-shaped rigid bracket 31. In fact, the eighth embodiment can also adopt an L-shaped rigid bracket structure. Compared with the U-shaped bracket, the L-shaped structure of the bracket 31 can be more conveniently adapted to users of different palm thicknesses by using a simple elastic and suitable elastic connecting belt, because the U-shaped bracket 31 is adapted to different users. Different palm thicknesses are necessary to allow the user to perform a bending operation on the U-shaped bracket 31 or a mechanical mechanism in which the U-shaped wings can be opened and closed, thereby increasing the user's trouble or increasing the complexity of the counting device. And manufacturing costs.

As shown in FIG. 31, the portion of the L-shaped bracket 31 on which the mounting plate 32 is mounted has a structure of a bend 34, and in the case where the bracket 31 is manufactured by a sheet metal bending forming process, for the hands-on The capable user can even adjust the direction of the bend with a tool such as a vise to adjust the inclination of the mounting frame 32 relative to the bracket 31 or the inner side surface of the palm against which the bracket 31 abuts, further optimizing the flatness. The spatial tilt angle of the shape counting mechanism 33 and its button 15 is better to cater for the pressing of the thumb and to avoid interference with the rosary or even the finger.

The U-shaped bracket 31 used in the eighth embodiment and the ninth embodiment cooperates with the elastic material flexible connecting belt 36 to ensure that the U-shaped wings respectively abut against the inner and outer surfaces of the user's palm, and the inner side of the U-shaped wings is Closely against the upper or lower end of the palm, this provides the counting device with a rigid, stable support that effectively prevents unnecessary rotation. When the L-shaped bracket 31 is used, the long wings of the L-shaped bracket will abut against the inner or outer side of the palm, and the short wing will abut against the upper or lower end surface of the palm. Although the L-shaped bracket structure does not have the function of preventing rotation from the U-shaped bracket structure, as described above, the L-shaped bracket structure and the elastic connecting belt can be more conveniently adapted to the use of different palm thicknesses than the U-shaped bracket. By.

32 to 34 and 35 to 38 respectively show a tenth embodiment and an eleventh embodiment of the present invention, which are different from the foregoing eighth embodiment and the ninth embodiment in the tenth and eleventh embodiments. In the example, the counting mechanism 33 is not located on the mounting bracket 32 on the inner side of the palm of the user, but is attached to one end of the U-shaped bracket outside the back of the palm by an L-shaped counting mechanism mounting plate 41. In the tenth and eleventh embodiments, unlike the foregoing eighth and ninth embodiments, the mounting frame 32 located inside the palm of the user is no longer a counting mechanism but a separate button 15 having a flat outer shape. The advantage of using the counting mechanism on the outside of the back of the palm is that a large-volume counting mechanism with superior functions can be used to avoid interference with the beads and fingers on the inside of the palm.

The tenth embodiment shown in Figs. 32 to 34 employs an electronic counting mechanism 33 having a larger display screen 331 and a better sound effect and a larger volume of the external speaker 38, so that it can be better for the user. The senses, for example, show the image of the Buddha and Bodhisattva after reaching the set number of beads, and play Buddhist scriptures or music with the chanting process. In the tenth embodiment, the button 15 is connected to the electronic counting mechanism 33 via a flexible data transmission cable 331 to transmit a signal that the button 15 is driven to count.

In addition, since the flexible signal transmission cable connection is adopted between the button 15 and the electronic counting mechanism 33, the electronic counting mechanism 33 may not be mounted on the bracket 31 at all, for example, elastic The strap is worn on the wrist of the user, so that it can better adapt to the preferences and usage habits of different users, and thus will fall within the scope of the third technical solution of the present invention.

The eleventh embodiment shown in Figs. 35 to 38 is similar to the tenth embodiment except that the eleventh embodiment employs a purely mechanical counting mechanism 33 similar to the aforementioned hand-held mechanical counter instead of the tenth embodiment. The electronic counting mechanism in the example is the same as the above-described hand-held mechanical counter. The mechanical counting mechanism 33 is also driven by a pressing lever 7 to perform a counting operation, and the purely mechanical digital scale roller 8 is used to display the counting result. And a clearing knob 9 for performing a zeroing operation on the digital scale roller 8 is provided. Similar to the tenth embodiment, the button 15 is connected to the mechanical counting mechanism 33 via a steel sleeve drive line 333, which is also used as the button 15 a mechanical linkage mechanism with the mechanical counting mechanism 33; as shown in Figures 35 to 38, the steel sleeve The pipe drive line 333 is composed of a flexible sleeve 3332 fastened at both ends and a steel wire 3331 inserted through the flexible sleeve 3332. One end of the steel wire 3331 is fastened to the button 15 and is The button 15 is driven to slide along the flexible sleeve 3332 as a whole, and the other end is located at the top of the pressing rod 7 for driving the mechanical counting mechanism 33 for counting operation, and the steel is driven when the button 15 is pressed.
