Abstract

PURPOSE:To report surely the life of a battery and release the report of the life of the battery due to malfunction by detecting the battery voltage during the alarm operation to hold the report of the life and releasing temporarily the report state just before the start of the alarm operation. CONSTITUTION:When an alarm switch S is closed at a set time, an alarm control circuit AL is operated, and an alarm signal is generated to produce an alarm tone. Simultaneously, a voltage detecting circuit V is operated by the output from the control circuit AL, and a gate circuit G is opened. Then, the battery voltage during the alarm operation is detected; and if the battery voltage at this time is lower than a prescribed value, the output is generated from the gate circuit G to set a circuit F. The sounding pattern of the alarm tone and the motion of a second hand are changed by the output of this FF circuit F to display the life of the battery. If the circuit F is set by the malfunction, the circuit F is reset when the alarm switch S is closed, and the clock is returned to the normal state.

Therefore, the present invention detects the battery voltage during alarm operation to deeply notify the lifespan, and resets the lifespan notification output immediately before the alarm starts to release the malfunctioning VC or C lifespan notification. It is.

In the above configuration, when the alarm switch S closes at the set time, the alarm control circuit AL operates to generate an alarm signal and generate an alarm.

When the voltage detection circuit V is activated by the output from the simultaneous VC alarm control circuit AL, the VC gate circuit G is opened.

Therefore, the battery voltage during alarm operation is detected,
If the battery voltage at this time is below a predetermined value, the gate circuit G
An output is generated from and the slip fluorocarbon 1 circuit F is sent. The output of this 7-lip-flop circuit F changes the pattern of the arranging sound and the movement of the second pin, thereby displaying the battery life. This output state of the flip-flop circuit F is maintained even if the ringing IE is performed, and the movement of the second pin V
The CX life display continues.

However, although omitted in the previous explanation, each time the alarm switch S is closed, one pulse is generated from the differentiating circuit DF, and the Clip Flon 1 circuit r is reset.

Therefore, when the alarm switch S is closed again on the next day after the life display is performed, the flip-flop circuit F is reset by the differential pulse. This is to prevent a situation where the lifespan display is displayed when a detection output is erroneously generated during alarm operation even though the battery voltage is sufficient. That is, if the flip-flop 1 circuit F is turned off due to a malfunction, the next time the alarm 2-inch S is closed, the VC flip-flop 1 circuit F is turned off, returning to the normal state VcΦ.

Note that the lifespan notification is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and may be performed using other display elements. The device detects the lifespan and maintains the notification state, and the notification state is canceled immediately before the alarm starts, so the lifespan notification can be reliably known, and even if the lifespan notification is performed due to a malfunction, it will not be automatically activated. It is possible to cancel the target V error.
