A mechanical clock is composed of a spring driver, a rotary timer and a hand mechanism. The spring driver includes a spring, a spring shaft, a spring box cover, a spring box bottom, a spring box cover claw and other parts, which provide the original power for the mechanical clock. The rotary timer is composed of a set of precision gears, including a center wheel, three wheels, four wheels and an escapement wheel, which push a set of gears and mechanical devices to make the wheel rotate at a specified speed to achieve the purpose of timing.

[0004] Although the fluorescent light ring of the above scheme makes it convenient for the mechanical clock to be checked when the lights are turned off, the mechanical clock lacks the function of voice time reporting. It is easy to misjudge the time by the number of sounds, so that the time is misheard and the daily work is delayed. Therefore, it does not meet the existing needs. In this regard, we propose a mechanical clock with a time reporting function. Utility Model Content

[0025] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0026] See also Figure 1-4 , the utility model provides a technical solution: a mechanical clock with a timekeeping function, comprising a mechanical clock body 1, a dial 11 is installed at the front end of the mechanical clock body 1;

[0027] It also includes a sensor cavity 7, which is opened at the front side of the mechanical clock body 1, an axis 3 is installed at the middle position of the sensor cavity 7, and one end of the axis 3 extends to the front end of the mechanical clock body 1, an hour hand 4 is arranged at the upper end of the axis 3 located at the front end of the mechanical clock body 1, a minute hand 5 is arranged on one side of the hour hand 4, and a second hand 6 is arranged below the hour hand 4, a baffle 10 is arranged at one end of the axis 3 located inside the sensor cavity 7, and the baffle 10 corresponds to the hour hand 4, and twelve infrared generators 8 are arranged at equal intervals in a ring shape at the rear end of the sensor cavity 7, and infrared receivers 9 are arranged right in front of the infrared generators 8;

[0028] It also includes a transparent dust cover 2, which is arranged in front of the mechanical clock body 1, and the upper and lower sides of the rear end of the transparent dust cover 2 are provided with three equally spaced slots 19, and the upper and lower ends of the transparent dust cover 2 are threadedly connected with three equally spaced threaded rods 15;

[0029] It also includes an L-shaped slide groove 20, which is opened on the upper side of the interior of the mechanical clock body 1. An L-shaped slider 22 is arranged inside the L-shaped slide groove 20, and the L-shaped slider 22 slides with the L-shaped slide groove 20. One end of the L-shaped slider 22 extends to the outside of the L-shaped slide groove 20, and a dustproof plate 21 is adhered and fixed to one end of the L-shaped slider 22 located outside the L-shaped slide groove 20.

[0030] When in use, the axis 3 will drive the hour hand 4 and the baffle 10 to rotate synchronously. When the baffle 10 moves in front of the infrared generator 8, the infrared rays emitted by the infrared generator 8 will be blocked, causing the corresponding infrared receiver 9 to be unable to receive the rays. The infrared receiver 9 will generate a blocking signal and send it to the central processing module 12. After processing, the central processing module 12 will start the voice module 13, and the voice module 13 will tell the time through the speaker 16, so there is no need to judge the time by the number of sounds, which can avoid misjudgment and ensure the accuracy of the time.

[0031] See also Figure 1 and Figure 3A central processing module 12 is arranged above the sensing cavity 7, and the central processing module 12 includes a digital clock module and a single-chip microcomputer. The central processing module 12 is electrically connected to the infrared receiver 9. A voice module 13 is arranged in front of the central processing module 12, and the voice module 13 is electrically connected to the central processing module 12. The central processing module 12 is composed of a digital clock module and a single-chip microcomputer. The digital clock module is responsible for providing accurate time information, and the single-chip microcomputer serves as a central controller, and controls the voice module 13 to report time according to the rule of the situation where the infrared generator 8 is blocked;

[0032] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 A speaker 16 is installed at the upper end of one side of the mechanical clock body 1, and the speaker 16 can perform voice broadcasting;

[0033] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 The upper and lower sides of the front end of the mechanical clock body 1 are provided with three equally spaced thread grooves 17, and the thread grooves 17 are threadedly connected to the threaded rod 15. The threaded connection between the thread grooves 17 and the threaded rod 15 is convenient for quick disassembly and assembly;

[0034] See also Figure 2 A magnetic iron sheet 23 is bonded and fixed to the rear side of the inner portion of the L-shaped slide groove 20. The magnetic iron sheet 23 can magnetically adsorb the L-shaped slider 22 to ensure the connection stability of the dustproof plate 21;

[0035] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 The upper and lower sides of the front end of the mechanical clock body 1 are both adhered and fixed with three equally spaced blocks 18, and the blocks 18 are all adapted to the slots 19. The engagement of the blocks 18 with the slots 19 can pre-fix the transparent dust cover 2 for easy disassembly and assembly;

[0036] See also Figure 4 A knob 14 is installed at the front end of the threaded rod 15, and the setting of the knob 14 is convenient for the user to rotate.

[0037] Working principle: when in use, the axis 3 will drive the hour hand 4 to rotate. Since the baffle 10 corresponds to the hour hand 4, the baffle 10 will rotate synchronously inside the sensing cavity 7. When the baffle 10 passes through the infrared generator 8 at one point, it will block the infrared rays emitted by the infrared generator 8, causing the corresponding infrared receiver 9 to be unable to receive. The infrared receiver 9 will generate a blocking signal to the central processing module 12. After processing, the central processing module 12 will start the voice module 13. The voice module 13 will report the time through the speaker 16. When the hour hand 4 moves to the two o'clock position, it will block the infrared generator 8 again. The central processing module 12 will cause the voice module 13 to report the two o'clock information, so as to broadcast the subsequent time. There is no need to judge the time by the number of sounds, which can avoid misjudgment and ensure accurate reporting. The accuracy of the timepiece 11 can be improved by the transparent dust cover 2 during daily use, and the mechanical clock body 1 can be improved by the dust cover 2. The user only needs to turn the knob 14, and the knob 14 will drive the threaded rod 15 to screw out of the threaded groove 17, so that the transparent dust cover 2 and the mechanical clock body 1 can be released from the fixation, and the engagement of the card block 18 and the card groove 19 will not cause the transparent dust cover 2 to fall off immediately, so that the user can easily remove it, so that the transparent dust cover 2 can be cleaned. At the same time, when the transparent dust cover 2 is removed, the user can slide the L-shaped slider 22 out of the L-shaped slide groove 20, so that the dust cover 21 can be taken out for cleaning. Subsequently, the L-shaped slider 22 can be adsorbed again by the magnetic iron sheet 23, so that the cleaning of the dust cover 21 is also convenient and quick, which is convenient for daily use.
