Abstract

As an article of daily use, this novel 24-hour analog-digital watch will display the actual time without requiring any mental adjustment for daytime or nighttime. Our technological age makes it possible to give clear and exact indications of time which are beyond the capacities of small-scale precision mechanics of just a hundred years ago. This 24-hour digital-analog watch is designed to be an article of daily use, but also a piece of jewellery.

Description

24 STUNDEN ANALOG/DIGITAL-UHR 24 HOURS ANALOG / DIGITAL CLOCK
Beschreibung der Erfindung: Gebiet; Elektro-Mechanik.Description of the Invention: Field; Electro mechanics.
Bezeichnung der Erfindung: 24 Stunden Analog/Digital-UhrTitle of the invention: 24 hour analog / digital clock
Technisches Gebiet, auf das sich die Erfindung bezieht: Die Erfindung ist ein Anzeigeinstrument, daß durch seine Konfiguration, dem Menschen die tatsächliche Zeit, auf einem Ziffernblatt und zusätzlich auf 2 Digitalanzeigen anzeigt, ohne das der Betrachter die Uhrzeit im Geiste der Tagzeit oder Nachtzeit zuordnen muß. Durch die Aufteilung des Analogen Ziffern¬ blattes, (der obere Teil der Uhr ist die Tagzeit, der untere Teil die Nachtzeit.) ist der Betrachter der Uhr sofort in der Lage die genaue Uhrzeit zu erkennen, egal ob er sich in einem geschlossenem Raum aufhält, oder im Bereich der Mittsommernacht.Technical field to which the invention relates: The invention is a display instrument that, through its configuration, shows the person the actual time, on a dial and in addition on 2 digital displays, without the viewer assigning the time in the spirit of the daytime or nighttime got to. By dividing the analog dial, (the upper part of the clock is the day time, the lower part is the night time), the viewer of the watch is immediately able to recognize the exact time, regardless of whether he is in a closed room , or in the area of midsummer night.
Einschlägiger Stand der Technik und dessen Würdigung: Es wurden bereits 24 Stunden Weltzeituhren gebaut, aber hauptsächlich um Geschäfts¬ termine oder Telefon-Ferngespräche der jeweiligen Ortszeit des Geschäftspartners anzupassen.Relevant state of the art and its appreciation: 24 hour world clocks have already been built, but mainly to adapt business appointments or long-distance telephone calls to the respective local time of the business partner.
Diese Uhren haben sich aber nicht im täglichen Gebrauch durchgesetzt, da sie nicht für die breite Bevölkerung gebaut wurden.However, these watches have not become established in everyday use because they were not built for the general public.
Außerdem hatten sie nicht den Vorteil der jetztigen Technik zu bieten, der darin liegt, diese Uhren mit elektrischem Laufwerk und elektrischen Digitalanzeigen, zu einem für Jedermann erschwinglichen Preis erwerben zu können. Darstellung der Die jetzige 24 Stunden Analog/Digital-Uhr Erfindung: ist als Combi-Zeitanzeigeinstrument für den Benutzer eine Uhr und ein Kalender. Der Uhr kommt heute eine viel größere Bedeutung zu, als noch zur Zeit der Erfindung der Weltzeituhr.In addition, they did not have the advantage of the current technology, which is to be able to buy these watches with electric drives and electric digital displays at an affordable price for everyone. The present 24-hour analog / digital clock invention: as a combi-time display instrument for the user, a clock and a calendar. The clock is of much greater importance today than when the world clock was invented.
Vorteilhafte In der heutigen Zeit werden Uhrzeiten bereits Auswirkung der in dem hier angestrebten 24 Stundenrhythmus, Erfindung: in Fersehzeitschriften oder Fahrplänen der Bahnen und Busse angegeben.Advantageous In today's time, the effects of the 24 hour rhythm sought here, invention: in television magazines or timetables of the trains and buses are given.
Mit der neuen 24 Stunden Analog/Digital-Uhr wird hier eine wünschenswerte Angleichung geschaffen.The new 24-hour analog / digital clock creates a desirable approximation.
Der Vorteil der 24 Stunden Analog/Digital- Uhr liegt in dem schnellen Erfassen des menschlichen Auges, der analogen Darstellung der Zeiger und damit auch der Uhrzeit.The advantage of the 24-hour analog / digital clock is that it quickly captures the human eye, the analog display of the hands and thus the time.
Aufbau der Uhr: 1. Der Sekundenzeiger läuft im Minutenrhythmus, einmal 360 °,also 60 Sekunden pro Minute.Structure of the watch: 1. The second hand runs every minute, once 360 °, ie 60 seconds per minute.
2. Der Minutenzeiger läuft im Stundenrhythmus, einmal 360 °,also 60 Minuten pro Stunde.2. The minute hand runs every hour, once 360 °, ie 60 minutes per hour.
3. Der Stundenzeiger läuft im 24 Stundenrhythmus einmal 360 * ,also 24 Stunden Einteilung.3. The hour hand runs once every 24 hours, 360 * , ie 24 hour division.
Der obere Teil des Ziffernblattes zeigt den Tag an, der untere Teil die Nacht.The upper part of the dial shows the day, the lower part the night.
4. Innerhalb der Stundenanzeige auf der linken Seite, auf der Linie 15-45 ist eine Digital- Anzeige die Stunden und Minuten anzeigt.4. Within the hour display on the left, on line 15-45 is a digital display that shows hours and minutes.
Innerhalb der Stundenanzeige auf der rechten Seite, auf der Linie 45-15 ist eine geteilte Digital-Anzeige die den Wochentag und den Monatstag anzeigt. Within the hour display on the right, on line 45-15, there is a split digital display that shows the day of the week and the day of the month.
