Histogram-type electronic clock

Abstract

The invention relates to a histogram-type electronic clock and belongs to the technical field of electronic clocks. The histogram-type electronic clock uses three dynamic histograms to represent the 'hour', the 'minute' and the 'second', time values are reflected on the dimension (the foreground color), from bottom to top, of each histogram to form a time histogram, 60 equal division point scalesare arranged on each dimension, the 'hour' histogram is labeled as 0-12, and the 'minute' and 'second' histograms are labeled as 0-60 (referred to an appended drawing of the abstract). The histogramsare constituted by three strip-type dot-matrix-shaped liquid crystal displays (LCDs), time information (the hour, the minute and the second) in a clock chip 8563 is read by a computer chip 89C51 of asingle chip microcomputer, and the computer chip 89C51 of the single chip microcomputer displays the real-time histogram-type time (for example, the time shown as the appended drawing of the abstractis 6:30:10) on the three LCDs correspondingly according to the time information. The electronic lock has the advantages that the histograms are good in visualization and figurativeness, the time is convenient to read rapidly, especially when the electronic lock is applied to a car, for example, time looking is convenient and safe during driving on a highway, time looking is as rapid as looking ofan autometer, because the picture looking reaction capacity of a human brain is faster than the text looking reaction capacity of the human brain.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a brand-new electronic timekeeping device, a histogram electronic clock, and belongs to the technical field of electronic clocks. Background technique [0002] At present, known timers include traditional circular pointer clocks (mechanical or quartz electronics) and modern digital electronic clocks. The peripheral pointer clocks are too old and have a single timing method. Digital electronic clock tends to be industrialized, lacks aesthetic feeling, and has no sense of time and space. Contents of the invention [0003] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the deficiencies in existing timers: traditional circular pointer clocks (mechanical or quartz electronics) and modern digital electronic clocks all have the shortcoming that the human eye reads the time and responds slowly, especially It is very inconvenient and unsafe to check the time while driving on the expressway. The invention utilizes the feature of go...
