Description

  The present invention relates to an examination student clock for more efficiently allocating examination time to students, and an area variable timer display device that allows ordinary people and students to manage their time more precisely and easily. is there.

The conventional stopwatch (timer) has the following problems.
First, according to the conventional technology, the examinee should memorize the test start time and the test end time for each school time and should be manually operated.

  In addition, the conventional stopwatch does not indicate whether it is one school time or two school times, and when the test time at the first school time is different from the second school time (for example, one school time is 90 minutes) And when the second school time is 100 minutes), when the students concentrate on the test only, the test time is illusioned (eg, the test time is 10 minutes, but it is miscalculated that 20 minutes remain) Cases) occurred frequently and caused fatal problems for students.

The alarm clock does not display the elapsed time or the remaining time until the reservation time.
Due to the problems as described above, the conventional technique has been difficult to be used by students.

  Moreover, the operation time free adjustment electronic timepiece timer described in Patent Document 1 is not invented for use for students and does not have an effective display device.

  The present invention invented a timer with a conventional numerical display method for examination purposes so that the student can efficiently manage the test time at the test site. The conventional timer and the conventional digital clock display method are cited. It is an object of the present invention to provide a clock for a student having a dial that can be used effectively by the student.

  Another object of the present invention is to provide a more precise area variable timer display device by improving the limitations of the conventional area variable timer display device.

  In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, first, in the examination student clock according to the present invention, the elapsed time until all the tests on the day are completed, with the corresponding test time scheduled for each school time based on pre-input data. The fixed area timer display that displays the area in a way that the area is continuously maintained regardless of the relationship, and the remaining test time of the corresponding test time scheduled for each school time based on pre-input data, the area over time It is characterized by including a clock face of a system that simultaneously displays on a single clock face, an area-variable timer display that displays in a manner that decreases the number, and a numeric display type timer display that displays the remaining time as a number. .

  After designing the circuit by quoting the technique of the above-mentioned Patent Document 1, combining the method of displaying on the circular digital dial and the square dial according to the present invention, an effective student timer clock is completed. The That is, the present invention is an improvement of a method that can be used effectively by students by quoting the operation time free adjustment electronic clock timer described in Patent Document 1 above. By inventing the circular digital dial and the square dial for displaying the remaining test time based on the input data, it is possible to make practical use of students.

  Next, in the area-variable timer display device according to the present invention, the area-variable timer display device described in Patent Document 2 is either two types of 10-minute blocks and 1-minute blocks, or 5-minute units. A detailed timer display method is adopted for the block and the block of 1 minute.

  That is, a method of displaying “A-type area variation timer display device” for displaying an amount in units of 10 minutes and “aa type area variation timer display device” for displaying an amount in units of 1 minute on one clock face. A clock face or a “B-type area variable timer display device” that displays an amount in units of 5 minutes and a “bb-type area variable timer display device” that displays an amount in units of one minute It includes a clock face that is displayed on the face.

  According to the examinee clock according to the present invention, the current time display function (with hour hand, minute hand and second hand) of the circular dial is continuously maintained, while the scheduled test time for each school time is set by a timer (fixed area). It is displayed, the remaining test time is displayed by the timer (area variation formula), and the remaining test time is displayed by the number display timer of the square square dial, so the student can manage the time very efficiently . In addition, since the test time according to the school time of the test schedule is automatically displayed by the timer, the examinee does not need to memorize the test time or pay attention to it, according to the timer display of the present invention. By responding to the test, you can concentrate on the test only.

  In other words, when the test start time for one school is reached, the timer automatically operates to display the remaining time, and when the first school time ends, it automatically returns to the current time mode and the second school time starts. The timer automatically operates to display the remaining time, and when the second school time is over, it automatically returns to the current time mode. The same applies to 3 schools and 4 schools. However, also in this case, the fixed area type timer is continuously displayed without disappearing until the scheduled test time of the day is completed.

  Next, according to the area-variable timer display device according to the present invention, it is refined into two types, a 10-minute block and a 1-minute block, or a 5-minute block and a 1-minute block. Therefore, the conventional area variation type timer display device with low precision is improved into two types, and the usefulness as a precise remaining time display device can be increased. That is, according to the present invention, the area-variable timer display device displays two types, a 10-minute block and a 1-minute block, or a 5-minute block and a 1-minute block. Thus, the remaining time can be displayed very precisely. Furthermore, according to the timer display device of the present invention, the amount of remaining time is expressed by an area called a block, which is efficient for visual recognition and time can be allocated more efficiently.

1. Test Student Clock According to the test student clock according to the present invention, the current time sent to the “clock face” via the “control circuit” and the “current time posting circuit” is displayed. At this time, the current time is simultaneously displayed on the circular dial and the square dial.

  When the time (start) that coincides with the data input to the “stopwatch operating time storage circuit” is reached, the control circuit converts the current time display on the dial to a timer display by the “matching time detection circuit”. On the circular dial, a display such as the time of 1 school or 2 schools and a timer displayed in area appear. Again, the digital (or analog) hour, minute and second hands of the circular dial will not disappear. A timer is displayed as a number on the square dial.

  When the time (end) that coincides with the data input to the “stopwatch operating time storage circuit” is reached, the control circuit changes the timer display on the dial to the current time display by the “coincidence time detection circuit”. From the circular dial, the display at the time of 1 school or 2 schools and the timer displayed by the area disappear. The current time is displayed numerically on the square dial.

  Even before the reservation time, when the mode is switched to the timer mode, the fixed area timer is displayed on the clock face. When all the timer operations reserved for the day are finished, the display disappears together with the area variable timer. The configuration of the “control circuit”, “current time posting circuit”, “stopwatch operation time storage circuit”, “coincidence time detection circuit”, and the circuit connection relationship are not shown, but this field Those skilled in the art will be able to understand common sense even without the drawings.

Hereinafter, a description will be given based on FIG.
FIG. 1A shows the normal mode, that is, the state before the timer is activated. On the circular dial, the current time is displayed with a digital (or analog) clock hand, and on the square dial, the current time is displayed with a number.

  FIG.1 (b) has shown the state which switched to the timer mode before reservation time. When the button to switch to the timer mode is pressed, the fixed area timer display appears, and the scheduled test schedule and test time for the day are displayed. However, since the reservation time has not yet been reached, the area variable timer display and the numerical display timer do not appear. This is because the operating time has not yet been reached.

FIG. 1C shows a timer operation mode immediately after the start of one school.
When one school starts, the timer automatically operates, while the circular dial displays 90 minutes, which is the test time for one school, by the area variable timer display device. (Or analog) The current time by the clock hand is displayed. Then, the remaining test time is displayed on the square rectangular dial.

FIG. 1D shows a normal mode after the end of the first school and before the start of the second school.
The circular dial displays the current time with a digital (or analog) clock hand, and the square dial displays the current time with numbers.

  FIG.1 (e) has shown the timer operation mode when 30 minutes have passed since the start of 2 school time. When 30 minutes have passed since the start of the second school time, the timer automatically operates, while the circular dial displays 70 minutes, which is the remaining test time at the second school time, and at the same time digital ( (Or analog) The current time by the clock hand is displayed. Although the reduction ratio of the display area of the area variable timer with respect to the passage of time is determined separately, the drawing shows an example in which the display area of the area variable timer decreases by one per 10 minutes. The square test face displays the remaining test time in numbers.

2. Next, the timer display method of the area variable timer display device according to the invention will be described. First, the current time is displayed by sending the current time passed through the “control circuit” and the “current time posting circuit” to the dial.

  When the time that coincides with the data input to the “stopwatch operating time storage circuit” is reached, the control circuit displays a timer display on the dial by the “matching time detection circuit”. The control circuit calculates the data inputted in advance, and how many blocks of “10 minutes (A type) unit area fluctuation timer display part” and “1 minute (aa type) unit area fluctuation type timer display part” respectively. After determining whether to display on the dial one by one, this is displayed on the dial. The same applies to the blocks of “5 minutes (B type) unit area variation timer display portion” and “1 minute (bb type) unit area variation timer display portion”.

  Next, the control circuit calculates the remaining time compared with the “current time posting circuit”, and displays “10 minutes (A type) unit area variable timer display portion” and “1 minute (aa type) unit area variable timer. The change in the number of blocks in the “display part” is shown on the clock face. The same applies to the blocks of “5 minutes (B type) unit area variation timer display portion” and “1 minute (bb type) unit area variation timer display portion”.

  In particular, among the two types of area variation type display devices, the 1 minute (aa type) unit area variation type timer display part is composed of a total of nine blocks, and the 1 minute (bb type) unit area variation type timer display part is provided. The important point of the present invention is that it is composed of a total of four blocks.

  Whenever 1 minute passes, one block of “1 minute (aa type) unit area variable timer display part” disappears one by one, and all blocks of “1 minute (aa type) unit area variable timer display part” disappear. After 1 minute, one block of “10 minutes (A type) unit area variation timer display portion” disappears and 9 blocks of “1 minute (aa type) unit area variation timer display portion” simultaneously Appears.

  Also, every time one minute elapses, one block of “1 minute (bb type) unit area fluctuation timer display part” disappears, and one block of “1 minute (bb type) unit area fluctuation type timer display part” disappears. One block of "5 minute (B type) unit area fluctuation type timer display part" disappears one minute after all disappear, and at the same time, four of "1 minute (bb type) unit area fluctuation type timer display part" The block appears.

For example, the following area variation type timer display device appears as a block.
1. When the remaining time of the timer is 55 minutes, 5 blocks of 10 minutes (A type) and 5 blocks of 1 minute (aa type) = 11 blocks of 5 minutes (B type) and 0 blocks of 1 minute (bb type) 2. When the remaining time of the timer is 50 minutes, 5 blocks of 10 minutes (A type) and 0 blocks of 1 minute (aa type) = 10 blocks of 5 minutes (B type) and 0 blocks of 1 minute (bb type) 3. When the remaining time of the timer is 49 minutes, 4 blocks for 10 minutes (type A) and 9 blocks for 1 minute (aa type) = 9 blocks for 5 minutes (type B) and 4 blocks for 1 minute (bb type) 4). When the remaining time of the timer is 8 minutes, 0 10-minute (A type) blocks and 1 minute (aa-type) 8 blocks = 5-minute (B-type) blocks and 1-minute (bb-type) blocks

  Next, a more detailed description will be given with reference to FIGS. 2 to 7 are diagrams in which the remaining time amount of the timer is represented by area by combining the “A type area variable timer display device” and the “aa type timer area variable type display device”.
