The illustration and description of these known circuits are omitted.

  FIG. 4 is a schematic block diagram illustrating a circuit configuration of the wrist terminal 2. The wrist terminal 2 has substantially the same configuration as the smartphone 1 except that it includes a clock unit 211 and a priority table 213, but is smaller than the smartphone 1 as a whole. That is, the display unit 202 includes an LCD and a drive circuit that drives the LCD, and the display area is smaller than that of the display unit 102 of the smartphone 1.

The speed sensor 211 detects the moving speed of the user who moves while wearing the wrist terminal 2 and supplies the detected speed to the CPU 206.

  Therefore, the CPU 203 can acquire not only whether or not the user who moves while wearing the wrist terminal 2 is moving, and the moving speed when moving by the input from the speed sensor 211, but also detected by the GPS 210. Whether or not the user is moving and the moving speed when the user is moving can also be acquired from the relationship between the distance corresponding to the change in position and time. Therefore, it is possible to reliably detect the presence / absence and movement speed of the user. Further, as described above, since the smartphone 1 also includes the GPS 110 and the speed sensor 111, the smartphone 1 has the same function, and thus it is possible to more reliably detect the presence / absence of the user movement and the movement speed.

A history memory 120 stores a training history so that the user can perform training a plurality of times and compare the results later.
Reference numeral 130 denotes a course memory in which various courses are set. A plurality of existing courses prepared in advance by the server 11 are prepared. For example, a Tokyo marathon course, a Honolulu marathon course, a jogging course in front of the Imperial Palace, etc., which are set courses A, B, C,... 130A, 130B, 130C,. Further, the courses set and registered by the user are My Courses 1, 2, 3,... 1301, 1302, 1303,. Various data collected by the wrist terminal 2 is sent to the server 11 for processing.

  FIG. 6 is a conceptual diagram showing the configuration of the priority table 213 provided in the wrist terminal 2 as described above. The priority table 213 includes an application area 2131, a first less than predetermined number of times area 2132, a first predetermined number of times greater than a predetermined number of times 2133, a second number of times less than a constant speed not shown, and a second predetermined number of times. A number of times more than speed area, a number of times area less than a third constant speed, and a number of times area more than a third predetermined speed are provided correspondingly. In the application area 2131, the type (name) of the application executed by the smartphone 1 is written in advance. The less than count area 2132 counts up one by one when the moving speed of the user is less than a predetermined speed (for example, 10 km / h) when the activation of the application is instructed by touching the corresponding application icon. The updated numerical value is stored while being updated. The full number area 2133 is updated with a numerical value incremented by one when the moving speed of the user when the corresponding application icon is touched and the activation of the application is instructed is equal to or higher than the predetermined speed. It is memorized while being done.

  In other words, the icons are narrowed down as the moving speed increases, but the priority of the icons to be left at that time is set. The priority table 213 can be installed in the wrist terminal 2, the server 11, or the smartphone 1.

  When installed on the server 11, information on which icon is frequently used when moving at a certain speed is statistically checked and written in the priority table 213 of the server 11 in advance. In that case, the number of icons is narrowed down with the same priority at the time of movement in all wrist terminals 2 linked to the SNS site 10 formed by the server 11.

When installed on the smartphone 1 , for each wrist terminal 2 of each user, information on which icons are frequently used when moving at a certain speed, and the order in which the icons are narrowed down by the learning function I will decide. Thereby, it is narrowed down to the icon with high use frequency for every user.

  Further, from the viewpoint of specification design, an icon that is highly likely to be used when running at high speed or an icon that is highly likely to be used when slowly walking is selected, and the server 11 is selected. It may be previously written in the installed priority table 213.

  Further, as described above, the server 11 is provided with the course memory 130 in which various courses are set. The frequency of icons used by the user may vary depending on these courses. For example, there are courses that emphasize recording, extremely hard courses, courses that enjoy leisurely walks, etc. Depending on the nature of the course, the course that emphasizes recording does not use camera icons even at low speeds, but in courses that enjoy walking, For example, the camera icon is frequently used. Therefore, a priority table 213 described later may be provided for each course. If it does so, when the same user wears the same wrist terminal 2 and trains, the icon displayed according to the increase / decrease in movement speed becomes an effect suitable for the selected course.

  FIG. 7 is a flowchart illustrating operations of the smartphone 1 and the wrist terminal 2 when the above-described quick start application is started by the user in the smartphone 1.

  As shown in FIG. 7A, the smartphone 1 starts to operate with the activation of the quick activation application, and if it is not the first activation (step SA1: NO), the home screen is immediately displayed on the display unit 102. Is displayed (step SA4). The home screen is a screen on which a plurality of icons and the like corresponding to the plurality of application programs 1073 stored in the program memory 107 are arranged.

  If this is the first activation time (step SA1: YES), a pairing process is performed with the wrist terminal 2 (step SA2). Here, the time of first activation is when the quick activation application is activated in a state where the wrist terminal 2 is not registered as an authentication terminal in the smartphone 1. Correspondingly, as shown in FIG. 7B, the wrist terminal 2 is also powered on, and when the quick launch application is activated for the first time on the smartphone 1 (step SB1: YES), the smartphone 1 and A pairing process is performed between the two (step SB2).

  That is, in this embodiment, the smartphone 1 operates as a master and the wrist terminal 2 operates as a slave, whereby pairing is performed between the two.

  FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing a pairing process between the smartphone 1 and the wrist terminal 2 in the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 5A, the smartphone 1 searches for the latest wrist terminal 2 in a state where Bluetooth (registered trademark) (or Wi-Fi) is set and close proximity wireless communication is possible (step SA101). ).

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 8B, the wrist terminal 2 also searches for a nearby smartphone in a state where Bluetooth (registered trademark) (or Wi-Fi) is set and close proximity wireless communication is possible (step). SB101). At this time, if the smartphone 1 and the wrist terminal 2 of the user who are not paired are close to each other, the smartphone 1 and the wrist terminal 2 repeat transmission and reception in close proximity wireless respectively, Explore.

  When the search for a nearby partner device is completed, the smartphone 1 transmits a connection request to the wrist terminal 2 (step SA102, FIG. 2 (1)), and the wrist terminal 2 transmits a connection request to the smartphone 1 (step SB102). FIG. 2 (2)). Then, it is determined whether or not mutual communication has been established by the connection request from each of these devices (steps SA103 and SB103). If mutual communication by the connection request is established (step SA103: YES), the smartphone 1 issues a pairing completion notification to the wrist terminal 2 (step SA104, FIG. 2 (3)). The wrist terminal 2 determines whether or not a pairing completion notification has been received from the smartphone 1 (step SB104).

  After the mutual communication with the smartphone 1 is established (step SB103: YES), the wrist terminal 2 receives a pairing completion notification (step SB104: YES), generates a passkey and displays it on the display unit 202, for example, 30 Seconds are displayed (step SB105, FIG. 2 (4)). The user of the smartphone 1 and the wrist terminal 2 visually recognizes the pass key displayed on the display unit 202 of the wrist terminal 2, operates the key of the input unit 105 of the smartphone 1, and inputs the pass key. Thereby, the input unit 105 of the smartphone 1 inputs a pass key corresponding to the operated key to the CPU 106 (step SA105).

  Subsequently, the smartphone 1 determines whether or not the input passkey satisfies the input condition. Here, the input condition is, for example, whether the issued passkey is input within 30 seconds, as described in FIG. The input limit number is up to 3. If these input conditions are not satisfied (step SA106: NO), the process returns to step SA101.

  On the other hand, if the input condition is satisfied (step SA106: YES), the connection is completed (step SA107), and the paired (mutual authentication) smartphone 1 and the wrist terminal 2 are identified using the pass key as identification information. Communication settings are automatically performed so that they can communicate with each other.

  Subsequently, when the above-described pairing is completed, the smartphone 1 transmits application information to the wrist terminal 2 (step SA3). The application information transmitted to the wrist terminal 2 is information regarding a plurality of application programs 1073 stored in the program memory 107 of the smartphone 1, and is identification information and icon data (image data) of each application.

  Thereafter, the smartphone 1 displays a home screen on the display unit 102 (step SA4). Thereafter, in the smartphone 1, the quick start application operates in the background, and the operations after Step SA5 described later are performed in parallel with other operations.

  On the other hand, when the application information is transmitted from the smartphone 1 while in the standby state, the wrist terminal 2 stores it in the pairing destination information memory 209 (step SB3). Thereafter, the wrist terminal 2 displays the home screen 2021 shown in FIG. 9A on the display unit 202 (step SB4).

  FIG. 9 shows an example of the display screen of the display unit 202 of the wrist terminal 2. FIG. 6A shows the state of the home screen. As will be described below with reference to flowcharts, the number of icons displayed is reduced and the display size is increased as the moving speed increases as shown in FIGS. ing.

  The home screen 2021 of the wrist terminal 2 is the same as the home screen (not shown) of the smartphone 1 and is a screen on which nine icons A to I indicating nine types of applications are arranged. Each icon A to I is based on icon data included in application information stored in the pairing destination information memory 209.

  The plurality of icons A to I displayed on the wrist terminal 2 are selectively displayed from icons displayed on the home screen of the smartphone 1. At that time, in a state where there is an icon that cannot be arranged on the home screen 2021 due to the display space, an icon group arranged on the home screen of the smartphone 1 is displayed on the home screen 2021 for each group (in accordance with a predetermined operation by the user). (For example, three at a time) A plurality of icons on the display screen of the wrist terminal 2 may be scrollable. That is, you may switch and display one by one according to predetermined operation by the user.

  In the wrist terminal 2, when the quick launch application is not activated for the first time on the smartphone 1 (step SB1: NO), that is, the application information is already stored in the pairing destination information memory 209 and is paired with the smartphone 1. In this case, the home screen 2021 is displayed on the display unit 202 immediately after the power is turned on.

  Thereafter, the wrist terminal 2 confirms at any time whether or not an arbitrary icon arranged on the home screen 2021 has been selected by the user (step SB5). Here, the user selects an icon by touching the home screen 2021 (touch panel 203) as shown in FIG. 9A.

  When an arbitrary icon is selected (step SB5: YES), the wrist terminal 2 acquires the moving speed at that time detected by the speed sensor 211 (step SB6). Subsequently, an application activation command corresponding to the icon is transmitted to the smartphone 1 together with the identification information of the application (step SB7). That is, an activation instruction signal for instructing activation of an application corresponding to the icon is transmitted to the smartphone 1.

  On the other hand, for example, after the home screen is displayed in step SA4, the smartphone 1 is in a standby state without performing any operation by the quick start application as long as it does not shift to the sleep mode (step SA5: NO).

  For example, the smartphone 1 is in the sleep mode, that is, when the home screen is stopped (step SA5: YES), for example, in accordance with the operation by the user or when there is no operation for a certain period of time. The presence / absence of reception of an activation command from the wrist terminal 2 is sequentially confirmed (step SA6).

  When the smartphone 1 receives the above activation command from the wrist terminal 2 (step SA6: YES), it transmits an activation report to the wrist terminal 2 in response thereto (step SA7), and immediately ends (cancels) the sleep mode. Then, the display of the home screen is resumed (step SA8). After that, the smartphone 1 activates the application indicated by the identification information sent together with the activation command (Step SA9).

  That is, when the smartphone 1 receives the activation command from the wrist terminal 2, if the security lock function is enabled at that time, the smartphone 1 terminates the sleep mode after canceling the security lock function. Starts operation by the specified application. Thereafter, the smartphone 1 returns to the operation of Step SA5. Thereafter, the smartphone 1 repeats the operation from step SA7 to step SA9 after shifting to the sleep mode at an arbitrary time.

  On the other hand, when the above-described activation report is received from the smartphone 1 (step SB8: YES), the wrist terminal 2 displays a confirmation message on the display unit 102 informing the user that the application selected by the user has been activated on the smartphone 1. (Step SB9). Thereafter, the wrist terminal 2 returns to Step SB5 and repeats the above-described operation.

  Here, for the sake of convenience, it is assumed that the activation report can always be received from the smartphone 1. However, when the activation report cannot be received, for example, when communication with the smartphone 1 is not possible, the wrist terminal 2 is connected to the application. Send start command repeatedly. If the activation report cannot be received from the smartphone 1 even if the number of transmissions of the activation command reaches the predetermined number, the wrist terminal 2 displays an error message on the display unit 102 informing the user of that fact.

  Thereafter, the wrist terminal 2 updates the priority table 213 (step SB10). That is, the application whose selection is confirmed in step SB5 is searched from the priority table 213, and if the speed acquired in step SB6 is less than a predetermined speed, the value of the corresponding less-number-of-times area 2132 is counted up, If the speed is equal to or higher than the predetermined speed, the value of the corresponding number of times area 2133 is counted up. Therefore, the larger the numerical value in the number-of-times area 2133, the higher the possibility that the application is used at a predetermined speed or higher, and the higher the priority used at the predetermined speed or higher.

  As described above, in the system of the present embodiment, when the smartphone 1 and the wrist terminal 2 are paired, information on the application that the smartphone 1 has is acquired by the wrist terminal 2. Thereby, the user can select the arbitrary application which the smart phone 1 has in the wrist terminal 2 as starting object.

  Then, while the smartphone 1 is in the sleep state, the user can cause the smartphone 1 to end the sleep mode and activate the specified application by instructing the wrist terminal 2 to activate a desired application.

  Furthermore, if the security lock function is enabled, the smartphone 1 can exit the sleep mode and activate the designated application after canceling it.

  Therefore, when the user takes out the smartphone 1 from the bag or pocket, that is, when using a desired application, the user cancels the sleep state and displays the home screen, and in some cases, the password. A desired application can be instantly activated from the wrist terminal 2 without performing a complicated operation such as inputting such information. Therefore, according to the system of this embodiment, the starting performance at the time of use of the smart phone 1 can be improved.

  FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing a timer interrupt routine that the CPU 206 of the wrist terminal 2 interrupts and executes every predetermined time in the present embodiment. CPU 206 determines whether or not a moving speed is detected based on a signal from speed sensor 211 (step SB201). If the moving speed is not detected, that is, if the user wearing the wrist terminal 2 is stationary, the home screen 2021 is displayed (step SB202). The home screen 2021 is a screen on which nine icons A to I representing nine types of applications are arranged as described above with reference to FIG.

  However, if the result of determination in step SB201 is that the user is moving, it is determined whether or not the user speed detected by the speed sensor 211 is less than the first predetermined speed (step SB203). Even when the speed is lower than the first predetermined speed and the user is moving slowly at a low speed, the home screen 2021 is displayed (step SB204).

  On the other hand, when the detected user speed is equal to or higher than the first predetermined speed and the user is moving at a relatively high speed such as running, the speed is less than the second predetermined speed (the first predetermined speed). It is determined whether or not speed <second predetermined speed) (step SB205). If the determination in step SB205 is YES and the user's speed is equal to or higher than the first predetermined speed and lower than the second predetermined speed, icons of priorities 1 to 4 are displayed (step SB206). That is, as described above, the larger the numerical value in the number of times area 2133, the higher the possibility that the application is used at a predetermined speed or higher, and the higher the priority used at the predetermined speed or higher. Therefore, the icons with the priorities 1 to 4 are the icons corresponding to the first application having the largest numerical value in the number of times area 2133 and the icons corresponding to the second, third, and fourth applications following the icons.

  Therefore, four icons A, B, D, and H are displayed by the processing in step SB205 as illustrated in FIG. 9B. In the display process in step SB205, as shown in the figure, the icons A, B, D, and H are enlarged and displayed within a range in which some of the icons do not overlap the display unit 202. . Therefore, it becomes possible to improve the operability during movement of the user with respect to the icons displayed on the display unit 202 of the wrist terminal 2 that is smaller than the smartphone 1. Therefore, even if the display unit 202 has a small display area, the user can easily and surely touch a desired icon and instruct the smartphone 1 to start the corresponding application.

  In addition, the four icons A, B, D, and H correspond to applications that are frequently used while the user is moving at a predetermined speed. It becomes possible to start quickly and reliably.

  If the determination in step SB205 is NO and the detected user speed is equal to or higher than the second predetermined speed and the user is moving at a higher speed, such as running, the speed is the third predetermined speed. It is determined whether the speed is less than the second speed (second predetermined speed <third predetermined speed) (step SB207). If the determination in step SB207 is YES and the user's speed is equal to or higher than the second predetermined speed and lower than the third predetermined speed, the priority level 1 and 2 icons are displayed (step SB208). That is, as described above, the icons with priority levels 1 and 2 are an icon corresponding to the first application having the largest numerical value in the number-of-times area 2133 and an icon corresponding to the second application subsequent thereto.

  Therefore, two icons A and B are displayed by the process in step SB208 as illustrated in FIG. 9C. In the display process in step SB208, as shown in the drawing, the icons A and B are enlarged and displayed in a range where some of the icons A and B do not protrude from the display unit 202. Therefore, it becomes possible to improve the operability during movement of the user with respect to the icons displayed on the display unit 202 of the wrist terminal 2 that is smaller than the smartphone 1. Therefore, even if the display unit 202 has a small display area, the user can easily and surely touch a desired icon and instruct the smartphone 1 to start the corresponding application.

  In addition, since the two icons A and B correspond to applications that are frequently used while the user is moving at a predetermined speed, the applications required by the user related to this during walking and running can be quickly and reliably performed. It can be activated.

  If the determination in step SB207 is NO and the detected user speed is equal to or higher than the third predetermined speed and the user is moving at a higher speed such as running, a priority 1 icon is displayed. (Step SB209). That is, as described above, the priority 1 icon is an icon corresponding to the first application having the largest number in the number-of-times area 2133.

  Therefore, two icons A and B are displayed by the process in step SB208 as illustrated in FIG. 9D. In the display process in step SB208 as well, as shown in the figure, the icons A are enlarged and displayed within a range where some of the icons A do not protrude outside the display unit 202. Therefore, it becomes possible to improve the operability during movement of the user with respect to the icons displayed on the display unit 202 of the wrist terminal 2 that is smaller than the smartphone 1. Therefore, even if the display unit 202 has a small display area, the user can easily and surely touch a desired icon and instruct the smartphone 1 to start the corresponding application.

  Moreover, since one icon A corresponds to the application that is most frequently used while the user is moving at a predetermined speed, the application required by the user can be quickly and surely activated during walking or running. It becomes possible to make it.

FIG. 11 is a display transition diagram showing another display form of the wrist terminal 2 displayed by executing the timer interrupt routine according to the present embodiment shown in FIG. That is, as in the case of executing the timer interrupt of FIG. 10, icons are displayed as follows in relation to the user speed.
(1) If the speed is less than the first predetermined speed, the home screen (FIG. 11 (a))
(2) When the speed is equal to or higher than the first predetermined speed and lower than the second predetermined speed, the priority ranking icons 1 to 4 ((b) in the figure)
(3) When the speed is equal to or higher than the second predetermined speed and lower than the third predetermined speed, the priority order 1 and 2 icons ((c) in the figure)
(4) When the speed is equal to or higher than the third predetermined speed, the priority order 1 icon ((d) in the figure)

  However, in this display mode, the number of displays is reduced according to the moving speed without changing the size (area) of the icon. Therefore, even if the size of the icon remains small, if the number of displayed items on the screen is reduced, a space can be afforded and the touch operation is facilitated.

  In addition, since the display of the icon does not change within each of the predetermined speed conditions of less than the first, the first, the second, the second, the second, the third, and the third, the icon display mode does not change frequently. Some hysteresis can be given. Therefore, it is possible to prevent deterioration in visibility due to frequent changes in the icon display mode.

  FIG. 12 is a flowchart showing a timer interrupt routine executed by the CPU 206 of the wrist terminal 2 by interrupting at predetermined time intervals in the second embodiment of the present invention. Based on the signal from the speed sensor 211, the CPU 206 determines whether or not a moving speed has been detected (step SB301). When the moving speed is not detected, that is, when the user wearing the wrist terminal 2 is stationary, the home screen 2021 is displayed (step SB302).

  However, if the result of determination in step SB301 is that the user is moving, the icon is enlarged and displayed according to the speed detected by the speed sensor 211 (step SB303). The icon to be enlarged is an icon with a high priority as in the above-described embodiment. Next, as a result of the enlarged display in step SB303, the icons that are not entirely contained in the display unit 202 are deleted (step SB304). Therefore, also in this embodiment, as illustrated in FIG. 9B, four icons A, B, D, and H that are enlarged and accommodated in the display unit 202 are displayed.

  In addition, in the present embodiment, the icons A, B, D, and H are displayed in a size corresponding to the moving speed of the user, so that an icon of an appropriate size is used regardless of the speed of movement of the user. Can be displayed as a whole.

  When moving on a train or moving on a car, the moving speed may be detected considerably faster. Therefore, when a predetermined speed or more is detected, it is determined that the vehicle is not traveling on its own, and the same icon as when stationary is displayed.

  Further, in order to prevent the speed sensor 111 or 211 from detecting the swing of the arm and erroneously detecting that it is moving, if no change in position is detected by the GPS 110 or 211, it is regarded as not moving. That is, in the present embodiment, the moving speed detection means simultaneously detects a change in position.

  FIG. 13 is a flowchart showing a timer interrupt routine executed by the CPU 206 of the wrist terminal 2 by interrupting at predetermined time intervals in the third embodiment of the present invention. Based on the signal from the speed sensor 211, the CPU 206 determines whether or not a moving speed has been detected (step SB401). If the moving speed is not detected, that is, if the user wearing the wrist terminal 2 is stationary, the home screen 2021 is displayed (step SB402). As shown in FIG. 14A, the home screen 2021 includes two icons A and B indicating two types of applications, a corresponding title (training start button) 2022, and a description of functions (time This is a screen with 2023.

  However, if the result of determination in step SB401 is that the user is moving, it is determined whether or not the user speed detected by the speed sensor 211 is less than the first predetermined speed (step SB403). Even when the speed is lower than the first predetermined speed and the user is moving slowly at a low speed, the home screen 2021 is displayed (step SB404).

  On the other hand, when the detected user speed is equal to or higher than the first predetermined speed (first threshold) and the user is moving at a relatively high speed such as running, the speed is the second predetermined speed. It is determined whether it is less than (second threshold) (first predetermined speed <second predetermined speed) (step SB405). If the determination in step SB405 is YES and the user speed is equal to or higher than the first predetermined speed and lower than the second predetermined speed, the icons A and B are displayed as shown in FIG. While enlarging compared to (a), only the title is written together (step SB406).

  If the determination in step SB405 is NO and the detected user speed is equal to or higher than the second predetermined speed and the user is moving at a higher speed such as running, the speed is the third predetermined speed. It is determined whether or not it is less than the speed (third threshold) (second predetermined speed <third predetermined speed) (step SB407). If the determination in step SB407 is YES and the user speed is equal to or higher than the second predetermined speed and lower than the third predetermined speed, icons A and B are displayed as shown in FIG. A simplified title 2024 that is enlarged and simplified in the title of the icon is also written (step SB408).

  Further, when the determination in step SB407 is NO, the detected user speed is equal to or higher than the second predetermined speed, and the user is moving at a higher speed by running or the like, it is shown in FIG. As described above, the icons A and B are enlarged as compared with the case of FIG. 7C, and the description of the icons is omitted at all (step SB409).

  Therefore, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to perform an appropriate operation while recognizing the icon and the contents of the application corresponding to the icon or the function according to the description of the title or function. In the case of the display form shown in FIG. 14D, the description of the icons is omitted. However, if a picture suggesting the function is drawn on the icon itself, it is considered that there is no particular confusion.

  In addition, a technique for determining whether the user is in a stopped state, a walking state, or a running state is known based on the pattern of the acceleration detection result of the acceleration sensor without detecting the moving speed. .

  Therefore, even if the actual moving speed is not detected, the same icon as when moving at a speed equivalent to 4 km / h is selected and displayed when it is determined that it is walking, and when it is determined that it is running, it is 8 The same icon can be selected and displayed as when the moving speed is equivalent to 10 kilometers.

  Further, as described above, if a course setting such as a walking course and a running course that can register a plurality of setting courses and my courses as course data 130 in the server 11 is made, for example, My Course 1 (1301) is If you select My Course 1 without detecting the actual moving speed, you can set the course to walk at 5 km / h, My Course 2 (1302) to run at 12 km / h, The same icon as when moving at a speed equivalent to 5 km / h is selected and displayed. When My Course 2 is selected, the same icon as when moving at a speed equivalent to 12 km / h can be selected and displayed.

  In the embodiment, the wrist terminal 2 that can be worn on the arm is shown as the information terminal. However, the information terminal is not limited to the wrist terminal that can be worn on the arm, and may be a necklace type or the like.

As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was described, these are suitably changeable if it is in the range with which the effect of this invention is acquired, Embodiment after change is also invention described in the claim, And the scope of the invention equivalent to that invention.
