Description

数字转动式钟表 技术领域
本发明涉及一种转动式钟表。
背景技术
现有的钟表分为指针式和数字式两种。 指针式钟表是传统钟表， 但对部分人特别是孩童来说不易识别。 数字式钟表虽易识別， 但难 以设计出花样各式的形状。 而且， 目前， 这两种现有的钟表一般只 能显示某一地方的时间， 而不能由钟表上直接显示出世界上其它时 区的时间， 这对于需要知道其它时区时间的人来说很不方便。
本发明的目的是提供一种易识别、 设计花样繁多且能直接显示 世界 24个时区时间的集指针式和数字式为一体的数字转动式钟表。
发明内容
本发明的目的是这样实现的： 用转盘分别替代钟表的指针， 将 各个转盘等分为代表时间的若干份并相应地标上数字， 分别在每个 转盘的数字起始位置处各设置一指针， 将表盘外圈等分为 12份， 固 定标上代表时区的符号。
本发明的目的可以进一步通过以下技术特征来实现： 用三个转 盘替代现有钟表的时针、 分针、 秒针， 将时盘等分为 12份， 按逆时 针顺序标上数字代表 12个小时， 将分盘和秒盘等分 60份， 按逆时 针顺序标上数字代表分、 秒， 并在表盘外團等分 12份， 固定刻上等 距 12个刻度代表全世界 24个时区。 在时盘、 分盘、 秒盘数字计时 起始位置处分别固定设置三根指针， 随时盘、 分盘、 秒盘分别按顺 时针转动。
由于本发明采用转动转盘代替了传统钟表的指针， 使用时， 一 方面只需读表盘顶部及其相应的部分区域内的数字即可得知时间， 故易识别， 另一方面， 由于转盘上同时带有指针， 因此也可以按指 针式钟表的读法读出时间， 即， 保留了指针读法功能； 而且， 表盘 外團上有世界时区指示， 故能直观地显示世界 24个时区的时间。
下面结合附图对本发明作进一步详细说明。
附图概述
图 1是本发明的数字转动式钟表的结构示意图；
图 2是本发明的数字转动式钟表在某一工作时刻的示意图。
本发明的最佳实施方式
如图 1所示为本发明的一种实施例， 用三个转盘， 即时盘 2、 分 盘 3、 秒盘 4分别代替了指针式钟表的时针、 分针、 秒针。 将时盘 2 等分为 12份， 按逆时针顺序标上 " 1-12" 12个数字代表 12个小时； 将分盘 3、 秒盘 4等分为 60份， 按逆时针顺序标上 " 1-60" 60个数 字分别代表分、 秒； 为美观起见， 也可只标整 10数， 或者根据需要 只标上所需的数字。 由于一般钟表可忽略秒计时， 故也可省略秒盘。 在各个转盘的数字起始处， 即， 时盘的数字 12处， 分盘、 秒盘的数 字 60处各设置一个指针 5。
在表盘 1外團等分 12份， 用字母 "A- L" 表示世界 24个时区， 如图 2所示。 当然， 也可以采用其它易于识别的符号来表示各个时 区， 如可用各个时区中有代表性的城市来表示与其相对应的时区。
如前所述， 也可省去秒盘， 而只设置时盘和分盘， 如图 2所示。 将表盘正上方的时区符号设定为当地所处的时区， 读时间时， 可从表盘正上方读时线 6及顺时针 30°扇形读时区域 7内读出， 也 可按指针指示的位置按一般指针式读法读出。 例如， 如图 2所示， 一方面， 从表盘读时线 6及其顺时针 30 °扇形区域 7内可读出为 10 时 10分（在区域 7内， 时盘显示数字为 10， 分盘显示数字为 10 ); 另一方面， 根据指针的指示位置， 按指针式钟表的一般读法也可读 出 10时 10分。
同样， 若要知道其它时区的时间， 只需读出与代表这一时区的 符号相对应的读时线及该读时线顺时针 30 °扇形区域内的时盘和分 盘所显示的数字即可。 从而能够方便地读出世界各个时区的时间。
本发明的各个转盘及指针还可设计出任意花色、 花样组合， 并 且设计简单、 容易制造、 成本低。
