Definitions
- the invention relates to a clock, in particular a wrist, pocket or table clock with a housing in which a clockwork and time display means are attached.
- Wristwatches or pocket watches are well known and very popular with users, because these watches can always be worn on the body due to their small and compact design. Smaller table clocks roughly the size of pocket watches are often placed on desks or sideboards.
- the object of the present invention is to create a watch, in particular a wristwatch, pocket watch or table watch, which is suitable not only for reading the time, but also as a pastime in waiting phases.
- a wrist, pocket or table clock designed according to this technical teaching has the advantage that a game of skill suitable for pastime is constantly carried along with the clock and is therefore always present on trips and / or waiting phases. As soon as the user of a watch according to the invention gets bored for any reason, he can pass the time with the game of skill.
- the housing has a transparent protective pane, under which the game of skill is arranged and through which the game can be observed.
- This protective screen can be made of glass. Acrylic, plexiglass or a clear plastic. It would also be conceivable to use a wire mesh as a protective pane.
- the game of skill is preferably constructed on the principle of a pinball machine.
- a movable body for. B. shot a ball, a disc or the like out of a starter and rolls or flies over a field and then lands in one of the catch pockets attached to the field.
- the collecting bags each have their levels of difficulty, so that the skill of the player comes into play when he z. B. wants to bring the ball or the disc into the desired collection bag.
- the time display means are preferably, but not necessarily, two conventional hands. These pointers are arranged in a dent or recess in the playing field, the pointers being located between the center and the edge of the housing.
- Figure 1 is a plan view of an embodiment of a wristwatch according to the invention.
- FIG. 2 shows a side view of the embodiment according to FIG. 1, cut along the line II-II in FIG. 1.
- Figures 1 and 2 show a wristwatch 2 with commercially available hands 4, which are driven by a clockwork, not shown.
- a housing 6 of the wristwatch 2 in addition to the clockwork and the hands 4, there is also a pinball-like skill game 8.
- the pointer 4 and the game of skill 8 are arranged side by side in such a way that both are simultaneously visible through a transparent protective pane 10 of the housing 6.
- the actual clock with its dial 12 is made much smaller than the housing 6 and is located in an area between the center and the edge of the housing 6, which is located in the upper right part of the housing 6.
- the skill game 8 is installed, which includes a playing field 14, a starting device 16 for shooting down a movable body, e.g. B. a ball 18 and a number of receiving the ball 18 receiving pockets 20.
- a movable body e.g. B. a ball 18 and a number of receiving the ball 18 receiving pockets 20.
- Other conceivable forms of movable bodies are round or polygonal discs, e.g. B. in the form of a puck or a spherical, polygonal body, d. H. a body with a variety of faces or facets on the circumference.
- the starting device 16 is formed from a starting ramp 22 and a starting pin 24.
- the starting ramp 22 has a short 26 and a long side wall 28, both of which abut a narrow side 30 of the housing 6.
- the short side wall 26 is spaced so far from the long side wall 28 that a ball 18 just fits into the space.
- the side walls 26, 28 are arranged parallel to one another and inclined so that a ball 18 lying against the long side wall 28 rolls down to the narrow side 30 as soon as the housing 6 of the wristwatch 2 is at least slightly inclined out of the horizontal.
- the long side wall 28 is curved such that the shot ball 18 rolls up along the side wall 28 and is directed into the upper region of the playing field 14.
- the starting device 16 has a starting pin, which extends from the starting ramp 22 through the housing 6 on the narrow side 30 of the housing 6 and opens into a cylindrical head 32 outside the housing 6. As can be seen in FIG. 2, the start pin 24 is held on the housing 6 by a helical compression spring 34.
- the starting pin 24 is pulled out of the housing 6 a little by the operator, overcoming the spring force of the helical compression spring 34. After the start pin 24 has been released, it is driven back by the prestressed helical compression spring 34 into the housing 6 and pushes the ball 18, which then shoots along the long side wall 28 of the starter device 16 into the upper part of the playing field 14.
- the impulse acting on the ball 18 can be controlled by the operator by pulling the starting pin 24 more or less out of the housing 6 and thus prestressing the helical compression spring 34 more or less. As a result, the ball 18 is shot more or less far into the upper part of the starting field 14.
- the ball 18 now falls due to gravity and lands in one of the receiving pockets 20 or falls between the receiving pockets 20 on the narrow side 30 of the housing 6 at the lower area of the playing field 14.
- the aim of the game of skill 8 is to accommodate the ball 18 in one of the receiving pockets 20.
- the player can influence the course of the ball 18 on the one hand by pulling the starting pin 24 more or less out of the housing 6 and on the other hand by moving the playing field 14 and thus the housing 6 when the ball 18 falls from the upper area the playing field 14 swiveled cleverly. It is also possible to add a different value to the individual receiving pockets 20 in order to do justice to the fact that not all receiving pockets 20 can be reached in the same way by the ball 18.
- the housing 6 is round, although it would also be conceivable for the housing to be oval, triangular, quadrangular or polygonal.
- the protective pane 10 covering both the playing field 14 and the numbers 4 is made of acrylic, plexiglass, transparent plastic or preferably of glass. It would also be conceivable to use only a wire mesh in which the meshes are smaller than the ball 18 instead of the protective pane 10.
- the skill game 8 is operated with two or more balls 18, but the number of balls 18 should preferably not exceed the number of receiving pockets 20.
- the receiving pockets 20 are arranged distributed over the playing field 14, each receiving pocket 20 having a different level of difficulty.
- the current time of day is not indicated by pointers, but by numbers, digitally or in some other way.
- the protective screen 10 is designed in two parts, one part covering the playing field 14 and another part covering the pointer 4.
- Holders 36 are formed on the outside of the housing 6 for fastening a bracelet. It would also be conceivable to design this watch provided with the skill game 8 as a pocket watch. For this purpose, the holders 36 would be replaced by corresponding holders for receiving a chain. Reference list
