Description
【発明の詳細な説明】 ［産業上の利用分野］ この発明はアラーム機構がついた腕時計に関する。[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial application field] This invention relates to a wristwatch with an alarm mechanism.

でアラーム信号を伝達するアラーム機構つきの腕時計が
提案されている。A wristwatch with an alarm mechanism has been proposed in which the alarm signal is a current pulse, which is applied between electrodes provided on the back of the armpit watch, and the alarm signal is transmitted to the arm in the form of electrical stimulation by the current pulse.

することにもなる。This watch can wake you up even if you're deep asleep, and doesn't emit a high-pitched signal that might disturb people around you. However, unless this watch is worn on the wrist,
Even if the alarm mechanism is activated, a signal cannot be transmitted. Another disadvantage is that signals cannot be transmitted even when the electrodes are worn loosely and the electrodes are not in contact with the skin. To compensate for this drawback, the alarm signal can be oscillated with a current pulse and a buzzer.
A switchable type may be considered, but in this case, the operation would be complicated and erroneous operation or forgetting to set the setting would easily occur. Also,
Activating both the current pulse and the buzzer simultaneously eliminates the advantage of the current pulse signal, which can directly transmit an alarm signal to the arm without making a sound, and also consumes a large amount of current.

かける恐れがない腕時計を提案するにある。This invention aims to solve the above problems. Its purpose is to emit a current pulse alarm signal when worn on the arm, and to emit a buzzer when not worn, allowing the alarm signal to be transmitted reliably, and without the risk of causing unnecessary buzzer oscillation and inconvenience to those around the person. It's here to suggest watches.

特徴とする。This alarm wristwatch is a wristwatch equipped with an alarm mechanism, and the alarm mechanism includes a means for applying an alarm signal as a current pulse between negative and positive electrodes provided on the back of the watch to oscillate it, and a means for oscillating it as a buzzer. The present invention is characterized in that it is equipped with an automatic switching means that generates a constant oscillation as a current pulse when the watch is worn on the wrist, and generates a constant oscillation as a buzzer when the watch is not worn.

信号をアラーム切替回路１１に送信する。The human body detection circuit 14 detects the pulse drive circuit 1 when the watch is worn on the wrist and the electrodes are in contact with the skin and when the electrodes are not worn.
Since the currents flowing through the alarms 3 and 3 are different, a human body is detected and a signal is sent to the alarm switching circuit 11.
