Liquid-level type buoyancy world clock

Abstract

The invention relates to a clock structure which adopts a liquid-level float type to display the time, in particular to a liquid-level type buoyancy world clock which comprises a water tank (1) with a transparent outer surface, wherein the water tank is used for containing liquid, a time display device comprising a fixedly-vertical time ribbon (2) and a vertical floating-rolling time zone ribbon (4) is arranged in the water tank (1) side by side, and the time ribbon (2) is an upright ribbon scroll on which natural numbers of 0, 1, 2 to 23 are marked from bottom to top; two horizontal sliding wheel shafts (3) are arranged at two ends of the time zone ribbon (4), wherein the lengths of the two ends of the time zone ribbon (4) are equal to the length of the time ribbon (2), a circle of ribbon of which the outer surface is marked with representative nations in 24 time zones is sleeved on the sliding wheel shafts (3), and the mark is repeated; a floater (5) with lighter specific gravity than the liquid is clamped on the nation mark in the time zone to be displayed; and a timing and quantitative liquid injection mechanism (6) injects the liquid with the same height as one time ribbon (2) into the water tank (1) every hour. The invention provides a fresh and new world clock structure, not only can display and understand the time, but also can obtain the dynamic feeling.

Description

(1) Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a clock structure, in particular to a world clock structure which adopts a liquid level buoy type to display the time around the world. (2) Background technology [0002] As we all know, the ancient people lived a simple life and had nothing to do except eating, fishing, hunting and making tools, so they worked at sunrise and rested at sunset, and there was no need to fight for time. Furthermore, when human beings live in groups and have transactions, it is nothing more than "the day and China are the market, and the transaction retreats." Later, with the increasing number of personnel, especially after the rise of agriculture, human beings gradually realized the importance of time. The concept of time varies with the level of human civilization. From the early "immediate effect" to measuring time with gauges or sundials, to the measurement that requires accurate time, the invention of "leakage" and the invention of water ...
