Abstract
A kind of light emitting diode clock, including dial and pointer, have the multiple characters for being used for showing the time on the dial, and each character only lights when being pointed to by the pointer.Due to the character luminous for only having pointer to point to, and remaining character does not light, therefore under either bright or dark state, can understand and definitely recognize the time, will not cause visual misunderstanding.
Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of clock, especially a kind of light emitting diode clock.
Background technology
Traditional clock enables character clearly using huge contrast of the character on dial and dial in color
Show to Chu, and then cause pointer to clearly indicate out the specific time in rotary course.But even if dial exists with character
There is again big contrast in color, when clock is in dark state, still can not clearly tell the character on dial.
The content of the invention
In view of this, it is necessary to which a kind of clock for becoming apparent from display is provided.
A kind of light emitting diode clock, including dial and pointer, have on the dial and be used to show the more of time
Individual character, each character only light when being pointed to by the pointer.
Due to the character luminous for only having pointer to point to, and remaining character does not light, therefore either bright or black
Under dark state, it can understand and definitely recognize the time, visual misunderstanding will not be caused.

Embodiment
Referring to Fig. 1, the light emitting diode clock 100 of one embodiment of the invention includes pointer 10, dial 20 and outer
Shell 30.There are the multiple characters 22 for being used for showing the time on the dial 20.When the pointer 10 points to a certain moment, the dial
Corresponding character 22 is luminous on 20.In the following description, it will point to pointer 10 at 3 points and just illustrate the light emitting diode for example
Clock 100.
Please refer to Fig. 2-4, the pointer 10 of the light emitting diode clock 100 includes hour hands 11 and minute hand 12.It can manage
Xie Di, the pointer 10 can also include second hand.The hour hands 11 are equipped on a protecgulum 13 with minute hand 12.The pointer 10 is installed on this
When on dial 20, the protecgulum 13 covers the part that is surrounded by the plurality of character 22 on the dial 20, on the dial 20 only
Expose the plurality of character 22 and its neighbouring part.
There is a light guide plate 21 for being not more than the protecgulum 13 on the dial 20.The plurality of character is corresponded on the light guide plate 21
22 radially offer multiple guide-lighting grooves 23.The corresponding character 22 of each guide-lighting groove 23.The center position of dial 20
It is provided with a rotating shaft 26.The pointer 10 rotates around the rotating shaft 26.The dial 20 is provided with multiple corresponding to each guide-lighting groove 23
Light emitting diode 24.The plurality of guide-lighting groove 23 corresponds with the plurality of light emitting diode 24.It is it is to be appreciated that the plurality of luminous
Diode 24 is side direction LED 24.The light-emitting area of each light emitting diode 24 guide-lighting groove 23 corresponding to.The leaded light
A fluting 25 is opened up among plate 21.The rotating shaft 26 and the plurality of light emitting diode 24 are exposed from the fluting 25.The fluting 25
Connect the plurality of guide-lighting groove 23.Preferably, external boundary of each guide-lighting groove 23 through the fluting 25 and the light guide plate 21.The scale
Disk 20 is installed in shell 30, preferably to be supported.
In the present embodiment, there is 1 ~ 12 totally 12 characters 22 on the dial 20, accordingly opened up on the light guide plate 21
There are 12 guide-lighting grooves 23.Correspondingly, the light guide plate 21 is provided with 12 light emitting diodes 24.The dial 20 is rounded, and this is more
Individual character 22 is evenly arranged in the opening position for closing on its excircle of the dial 20.The protecgulum 13 is with the light guide plate 21 in half
Footpath is less than the circle of the dial 20.The fluting 25 is rounded, the equal length of each guide-lighting groove 23.It is to be appreciated that should
Dial 20 is not limited to circle, and the plurality of character 22 is also not necessarily limited to be uniformly distributed on the dial 20.With the plurality of character
22 different distributions, the distribution of the plurality of guide-lighting groove 23 and length also change immediately.
The plurality of character 22 is made up of reflectorized material, and the color of the plurality of character 22 and the dial 20 approaches.When
When character 22 is not by illumination, the character 22 does not light, and its color is almost identical with the dial 20.In the present embodiment, the quarter
Scale 20 is in black when not being illuminated with the character 22.Observer can not distinguish one from the other each character 22 with carving when not examining
Scale 20.When pointer 10 goes to some integral point moment, the light emitting diode 24 of corresponding position is lighted.Light by leading accordingly
Light groove 23 is irradiated on corresponding character 22.Such as in this implementation, pointer 10 points to 3 timings, " 3 " on dial 20 are right
The light emitting diode 24 answered is illuminated.Light is irradiated on " 3 " by light by corresponding guide-lighting groove 24, and " 3 " are sent out by reflecting
Light.Now, due to only having " 3 " to light, and other characters 22 are in dark state, therefore no matter observer is bright or black
In dark environment, it can see the time for 3 points just exactly.When pointer 10 is not directed on schedule, such as pointed to for three thirty
When, " 3 " are still luminous.Preferably, the minute hand 12 and hour hands 11 can be made up of luminescent material or fluorescent material, thus hour hands
11 and minute hand 12 can receive the light of light emitting diode 24 all the time and be maintained at luminance so that light emitting diode clock
100 can still show the specific time in dark surrounds.It is to be appreciated that the light emitting diode clock 100 also includes control
Module and driving module.The light emitting diode 24 that the control module is used to control the pointer 10 to point to is opened.The driving module
For lighting the light emitting diode 24 pointed to by pointer 10.
Because the plurality of character 22 is by Refl-Luminous rather than itself is lighted, therefore save due to using luminescent material
Make the high cost of character 22.Again due to only having the character 22 that pointer 10 points to luminous, and remaining character 22 is in and scale
In the state of 20 almost identical color of disk, therefore under either bright or dark state, when can understand and definitely recognize
Between, visual misunderstanding will not be caused.Meanwhile except when outside preceding time, all no light emitting diode 24 of other times illuminates,
Therefore people can be allowed to feel the disappearance of time, so as to make one more to treasure life.In addition, the light emitting diode clock of this case
100 also great individual characteies and rich in artistic feeling, are different from other ordinary clock.
