Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] (Industrial application field) The present invention relates to a pendulum clock.

(Prior art) Conventionally, in a pendulum clock, the watch body and the pendulum are separate bodies, and a hook is provided on a swinging rod that is swingably supported by the watch body, and this hook has a hook shape. The pendulum was swung by locking the pendulum with a locking part.

(Problems to be solved by the invention) However, with the above conventional pendulum hanging means,
There is no danger that the pendulum will come off the pendulum when it swings, but if the clock body swings violently when the pendulum is attached to a wall or when it is removed, the pendulum may fall off the pendulum. I had a problem with it coming off and falling.

The present invention was made in order to solve the above conventional problems, and its purpose is to provide a pendulum clock having a pendulum mechanism that prevents the pendulum from easily coming off when the pendulum is hung. .

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above object, the present invention includes a pendulum having a hook-shaped engaging portion, a hooking portion capable of hooking the engaging portion, and a clock. A pendulum clock equipped with a swinging rod swingably supported by a main body, an engaging piece capable of holding the pendulum is rotatably provided near the hook of the swinging rod, and the engaging piece is rotatably provided on the watch main body. It has a structure in which a locking member such as a locking pawl that can lock a piece is provided, and when the pendulum of the swinging rod is hooked, the engaging piece holds the pendulum and prevents the pendulum of the swinging rod from being hooked. When the watch is stopped, the engaging piece is locked to the locking member, and the swing rod is locked to the watch body.

(Embodiment) An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 7.

Fig. 1 is a sectional view showing one embodiment of the present invention;
The figure is a plan view showing arrow A in FIG. 1.

Reference numeral 2 designates a watch body, which is composed of a pendulum 4, a time display device for displaying the time, and a watch body 6 including a pendulum swinging device for swinging the pendulum 4. The watch body 6 is
Front frame 8, glass 10, rear frame 12, movement 1
4 attached to the mechanism receiving plate 16, this mechanism receiving plate 16
The swing rod 18 is comprised of a swinging rod 18 that is swingably supported on the upper part of the swinging rod, a mechanism receiving plate 16, a cover body 20 that covers the swinging rod 18, and the like, and the swinging rod 18 has a magnet 22 fixed to its lower part, It is oscillated by well-known electromagnetic coupling with a detection drive coil 24 fixed to the mechanism receiving plate 16. The cover body 20 is fixed to the rear frame 12 with screws or the like, and has an opening 26 below thereof so that the lower end 18a of the swinging rod 18 can protrude and swing, and a wall hanging part 28 above the opening 26. The watch body 2 is fixed to the wall or the like by hooking a hook (not shown) fixed to the wall or the like to the wall hanging part 28.

A hook-shaped engaging portion 4a is provided at the upper end of the pendulum 4, and this engaging portion 4a is connected to the lower end 18a of the swinging rod 18.
By engaging the hook 30 provided in the
The pendulum 4 is hung on a swinging rod 18.

On the other hand, above the hooking part 30 provided on the swinging rod 18, a U-shaped engagement piece 36 consisting of two arms 32, 32 and a connecting part 34 is attached to the arm 32, 32.
The protrusions 32a, 32a protruding from each end of the swinging rod 1
It is rotatably supported by being pivotally supported in recesses 38, 38 provided in the cover body 20. Also, near the opening 26 of the cover body 20, there is a locking part that can lock the connecting part 34 of the engaging piece 36. A locking claw 40 is provided as a locking member.

Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, when the pendulum is hooked, by rotating and holding the engaging piece 36 in the direction of arrow B, the pendulum 4 is able to hold the engaging portion 4a of the swinging rod 18. It is held by the connecting part 34 between the hooking part 30 and the engaging piece 36, and there is no danger of it coming off the swing rod 18.

As shown in Fig. 5 and Fig. 6, when the pendulum is not locked, such as when the clock body 2 is packed, the engagement piece 36 is rotated in the direction of the arrow C, and the connecting part 34 is engaged with the locking claw 40, thereby locking the pendulum rod 18 to the cover body 20, i.e., the clock body 6. To release this locked state, the connecting part 34 is rotated in the direction of the arrow B.
In this embodiment,
Since the locking claw 40 is provided near the opening of the cover body 20, as shown in FIG. 7, by pressing the vicinity of the locking claw 40 of the cover body 20 in the direction of the arrow D with a finger or the like, the locking claw 40 is deformed and the connecting portion 34 is opened.
The locked state can be easily released.

In this embodiment, a locking pawl 40 that engages with the engaging piece 36 is provided on the cover body 20, but a locking member such as the locking pawl 40 may be provided on the watch body 6. , for example, may be provided on the mechanism receiving plate.
Furthermore, the locking member of the present invention is not limited to a locking pawl, but may be any member that can lock the engagement piece 36.

(Effects of the invention) According to the invention, an engaging piece capable of holding a pendulum is rotatably provided near the engaging part of the swing rod, and a locking pawl or the like capable of locking the engaging piece on the watch body is provided. By providing the locking member, when the pendulum of the swinging rod is hooked, the engaging piece will hold the pendulum, so the pendulum will not easily come off from the swinging rod, and when the pendulum of the swinging rod is not hooked, the engaging piece will clamp the pendulum. The swinging rod can be locked to the watch body by rotating the coupling piece and locking it with the locking member.
