Description
【発明の詳細な説明】 本発明″は時計装置に関するものである。[Detailed description of the invention] TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a timepiece device.
従来例えば親子時計における時刻修正は、手動式のもの
と時報信号によって正時に合わせ込むものなどが大半を
占めている。ところが手動式のものは人手を煩わせると
、いう欠点があり、時報信号によるものは、正時の直後
に外乱等によって誤差が生じると次の修正時まで長時間
の間修正が効がないという欠点がある。Conventionally, for example, the majority of time adjustments in parent-child clocks have been either manual or adjusted to the hour using a time signal. However, the manual type has the disadvantage of requiring labor, and the time signal type has the disadvantage that if an error occurs due to disturbances immediately after the hour, the correction will not be effective for a long time until the next correction is made. There are drawbacks.
また上記のいずれも時計の始動時に、各子時計の表示を
その時刻に合わせ込んだ後始動させなければならず、こ
れも煩わしいものであった。In addition, in any of the above methods, when starting the clock, it is necessary to adjust the display of each child clock to the time before starting the clock, which is also troublesome.
そこで本発明は計時装置の計時時刻と表示時刻とを常時
比較し両者を常に一致させておくようにした時計装置を
提供して上記従来の欠点を除去するものである。SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, the present invention provides a timepiece device that constantly compares the time measured by the timer and the displayed time to keep them consistent, thereby eliminating the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional technology.

る。Fig. 2 shows the minute detection device, in which a disc 22 is provided at the rear of the character machine, and the 0,2°4...
Thirty 11-door switches 26...23 are arranged as detection elements at the 58 minute indicating position, and the minute hand shaft 2
The indicator needle 25 is fixed to 4. A permanent magnet 26 constituting an operating element is fixed to the tip of the indicator needle 25. By aligning the indicated position of the indicator hand 25 with the indicated position of the minute hand 6, when the minute hand 6 indicates the ICO minute as shown in the figure, the reed switch 23 is located at the 0 minute indicated position.
will be developed. Also, when 1 minute is specified as shown in the third figure, the 11-door switch 23 located at the 0 minute and 2 minute positions
The width of the permanent magnet 26 is set to 1- so that both angles 23 and 23 open.In this way, the indicator needle 25 is set at 0.2°4...
...When 58 minutes is specified, the reed switch 23...2S at each specified position is opened, and the time is 1°3.
・・・・When 59 minutes is specified, (0, 2
), (2,4) . . . (s8.o), the reed switches 25 . . . 23 are opened at the indicated positions.

久礎石を固着して検出するものである。Then, the output of each reed switch 23...23 is converted into a binary coded 1O code output by the converter 15, and the first
The signal is supplied to the register 15 in the figure. The indicated position of the one-way hand 7 is the same as above, with reed switches placed at the 0, 2, 4, 10 o'clock positions, and a permanent foundation stone fixed to the indicator hand fixed to the hour hand shaft. It is something to detect.
つぎに動作について説明する。親時計１からは時刻デー

の指示位置が上記検出装置１０．１１ＶＣよって検出さ
れ、その出力が変換装置１２．ｊ５によって時刻データ
に変換される。Next, the operation will be explained. Time data is generated serially from a master clock 1, converted into parallel data by a register 2, and minute data is supplied to a register 4, and hour data is supplied to a register 3. On the other hand, the minute hand 6 of the child clock 5 and the clock 7
The indicated position is detected by the detection device 10.11VC, and its output is sent to the conversion device 12. It is converted into time data by j5.
この時刻データはレジスタ１４．１５に記憶され、その

致すると、比較装置１７の出力が停止し、分針６が停止
する。This time data is stored in register 14.15, and its output and the outputs of registers 3 and 4 are compared by comparator 16.17. For example, when the minute hand 6 is advancing, that is, when the contents of the register 4 are smaller than the contents of the register 15, the output of the comparator 17 causes the amplifier circuit 2 to
It is set so that an output is generated from 1, and this output causes the reversal fill of the drive device 8! /lA shift and the minute hand 6 is reversed. When the indicated position of the minute hand 6 is corrected, that is, when the contents of the register 15 match the contents of the register 4, the output of the comparator 17 is stopped and the minute hand 6 is stopped.

されるものである。When the minute hand 6 is delayed, that is, when the contents of the register 4 are larger than the contents of the register 15, an output is generated from the amplifier circuit 20 by the output of the comparator 17, and the minute hand is caused by the forward rotation coil of the drive device 8. 6 is rotated forward and corrected. That is, in normal times, this operation is performed every time the contents of the register 4 are incremented by one minute, and the minute hand is incremented.
なお永久磁石およびリードスイッチに代、ｔて電気的な
接点とか発光素子および受光素子を用いてもよい。Note that instead of permanent magnets and reed switches, electrical contacts, light emitting elements, and light receiving elements may be used.

杓省力化する上で極めて有効である。As described in detail above, according to the present invention, a detection element is provided at a designated position including one for detecting the displayed time, and when a working element faces this detection element, only that detection element is activated. Since the two detecting elements are activated when the actuating element is located between the two detecting elements, the number of detecting elements can be reduced, which is effective for miniaturization. Moreover, the accurate time is displayed under normal pressure, and even if the hands shift due to disturbances, etc., the time can be immediately corrected. Next, especially when used in a parent-child clock that drives a plurality of child clocks, there is no need to synchronize the display time of each child clock even when starting the device. Moreover, it is extremely effective in saving labor since it does not require any manual labor after startup.
