[0020] In order to enable ordinary technicians in the field to more clearly understand the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the utility model, the utility model is further explained below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0021] The utility model provides a quartz movement component shared by dual-module power supplies.
[0022] like Figure 1-2 As shown, in one embodiment of the utility model, the quartz movement assembly shared by the dual module power supply includes a display module 10, a display module mainboard 20, a quartz movement module 30, a battery 40, a battery holder 41, a display module bracket 50, a light-emitting sheet 60 and a power management module (not shown in the figure). The upper part of the display module bracket 50 is provided with a display module accommodating space 51, and the lower part of the display module bracket 50 is provided with a movement accommodating space 52. The display module 10 and the light-emitting sheet 60 are embedded and installed in the display module accommodating space 51, and the light-emitting sheet 60 is located below the display module 10. The quartz movement module 30 is embedded and installed in the movement accommodating space 52. The quartz movement module 30 includes a quartz movement deck 31, a quartz movement driving mainboard 32 and a quartz movement function cover sheet 33; the display module mainboard 20 and the battery holder 41 are arranged below the display module bracket 50, and the display module mainboard 20 is located between the battery holder 41 and the display module bracket 50.
[0023] The battery 40 is a button cell with a first output voltage. The battery 40 is installed in a battery holder 41 and fixed by a battery pressing sheet 42. The battery 40 is connected to the display module mainboard 20 and the power management module. The display module mainboard 20 is connected to the display module 10 and the light-emitting sheet 60. The power management module is used to convert the output voltage of the battery 40 into a stable second voltage to power the quartz movement module 30. In this embodiment, the first voltage is 3V and the second voltage is 1.5V. Of course, in other embodiments, the first voltage and the second voltage can select other voltage values according to actual needs, so as to adapt to the display module and the quartz movement module 30.
[0024] like Figure 3As shown, the power management module includes a power input terminal, a power output terminal, a reference voltage generating circuit 101, an operational amplifier U1, a transistor Q1 and an output sampling circuit 102; the power input terminal is used to connect to the battery 40, and the power output terminal is used to connect to the quartz movement module 30; the reference voltage generating circuit 101 is connected to the power input terminal, and is used to output a reference voltage Vref to the non-inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier U1, and the reference voltage Vref is less than the second voltage; the output terminal of the operational amplifier U1 is connected to the base of the transistor Q1, the collector of the transistor Q1 is connected to the power input terminal, and the emitter of the transistor Q1 is connected to the power output terminal; the output sampling circuit 101 is used to sample the output voltage Vo of the power management module, and feed back the sampled sampled voltage Vn to the inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier U1; the operational amplifier U1 controls the output of the transistor Q1 according to the comparison result between the reference voltage Vref and the sampled voltage U1, so that the power management module can output a stable second voltage.
[0025] In this embodiment, the reference voltage generating circuit 101 includes a first resistor R1 and a voltage stabilizing diode D1. One end of the first resistor R1 is connected to the power input terminal, and the other end of the first resistor R1 is respectively connected to the cathode of the voltage stabilizing diode D1 and the non-inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier U1, and the anode of the voltage stabilizing diode D1 is grounded. The first resistor R1 and the voltage stabilizing diode D1 can form a reference voltage source to provide a reference voltage Vref that does not change with the outside world for the circuit. When the input voltage Vi changes, the reference voltage Vref remains substantially unchanged. Among them, the reference voltage Vref can be set according to actual conditions. For example, the reference voltage Vref in this embodiment is set to 1.2V. The first resistor R1 and the voltage stabilizing diode D1 can select appropriate specifications according to the reference voltage Vref to be set. For example, the resistance value of the first resistor R1 in this embodiment is 1.2MΩ, and the withstand voltage of the voltage stabilizing diode D1 is 1.2V. Of course, in other embodiments, the reference voltage generating circuit 101 can also be implemented using existing technology, thereby providing a reference voltage Vref that does not change with the outside world for the circuit.
[0026] In this embodiment, the output sampling circuit 102 includes a second resistor R2 and a third resistor R3, the emitter of the transistor Q1 is connected to ground after passing through the second resistor R2 and the third resistor R3 in sequence, and the connection point between the second resistor R2 and the third resistor R3 is connected to the inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier U1. When the output sampling circuit 101 samples the output voltage Vo of the power management module, due to the voltage division effect of the second resistor R2 and the third resistor R3, the sampled sampling voltage Vn is the voltage division of the output voltage Vo, and finally the sampled voltage Vn is fed back to the inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier U1. Among them, the second resistor R2 and the third resistor R3 can select appropriate specifications according to actual needs. For example, the resistance value of the second resistor R2 in this embodiment is 370KΩ, and the resistance value of the third resistor R3 is 1.2MΩ. Of course, in other embodiments, the output sampling circuit 102 can be implemented using existing technology, and the sampling result of the output sampling circuit 102 can be the output voltage Vo, or the voltage division of the output voltage Vo.
[0027] In this embodiment, the power input end of the power management module is connected in parallel with a filter capacitor C1, and the power output end of the power management module is connected in parallel with a filter capacitor C2; of course, in other embodiments, the power management module includes a power input end and a power output end and a filter capacitor may not be set.
[0028] The specific working process of the power management module is as follows: when the input voltage Vi increases, the output voltage Vo will tend to increase, and the increase in the output voltage Vo will increase the sampling voltage Vn; and since the reference voltage source Vref basically does not change, the increase in the sampling voltage Vn will reduce the output of the operational amplifier U1; and the transistor Q1 works in the state of an emitter follower, and when its base voltage decreases, the emitter voltage (equivalent to the output voltage Vo) will also decrease, thereby suppressing the trend of the output voltage Vo increasing. When the input voltage Vi decreases, the output voltage Vo will tend to decrease, and the decrease in the output voltage Vo will reduce the sampling voltage Vn; and since the reference voltage source Vref basically does not change, the decrease in the sampling voltage Vn will increase the output of the operational amplifier U1; and the transistor Q1 works in the state of an emitter follower, and when its base voltage increases, the emitter voltage (equivalent to the output voltage Vo) will also increase, thereby suppressing the trend of the output voltage Vo decreasing. Due to the virtual short input characteristic of the operational amplifier, it can be considered that Vn=Vref, so its output Vo=Vn*(R2+R3) / R3=Vref*(R2+R3) / R3. In this embodiment, Vref=1.2V, the resistance value of the second resistor R2 is 370KΩ, and the resistance value of the third resistor R3 is 1.2MΩ, then Vo=1.2V*(3.7K+1.2M) / 1.2M=1.5V. Therefore, the power management module can maintain a stable output of 1.5V.
[0029] In some embodiments of the utility model, the power management module may also use existing technologies to implement voltage conversion and voltage stabilization output, thereby outputting a stable second voltage that can be used by the quartz movement module 30 .

The conductive spring and conductive spring are used to realize the conductive connection between the display module mainboard 20 and the quartz movement module 30, which can not only meet the stability requirements of the conductive connection between the modules, but also can rely on the elastic force of the conductive spring and the conductive spring to improve the stability after the quartz movement module 30 is installed and fixed, so as to avoid the swing of the connection between the display module mainboard 20 and the quartz movement module 30, thereby preventing unnecessary collisions. In order to avoid the deviation of the conductive spring 35, a spring fixing column 36 is also provided on the quartz movement module 30, and the conductive spring 35 is sleeved on the spring fixing column 36. Of course, in other embodiments, a conductive spring can be used as the positive connector of the quartz movement module 30 to be conductively connected to the positive power interface 21 of the display module mainboard 20, and a conductive spring can be used as the negative connector of the quartz movement module 30 to be conductively connected to the negative power interface 22 of the display module mainboard 20.
[0031] In some embodiments of the utility model, the power management module is arranged on the display module mainboard 20, and the power management module is connected to the quartz movement module by soldering of enameled wire.
[0032] In some embodiments of the utility model, the power management module may also be arranged on the quartz movement driving mainboard 30 .
[0033] To sum up, the quartz movement component shared by the dual-module power supplies of the utility model includes a power management module, which can convert the 3V voltage output by the battery into a stable 1.5V voltage that can be used by the quartz movement module, so that a single battery can meet the power supply requirements of the display module and the quartz movement module at the same time, avoiding a multi-battery design, saving a battery, thereby reducing production costs, and facilitating the installation and subsequent disassembly and replacement of the battery. At the same time, it can ensure that the 1.5V power supply voltage of the quartz movement module is stable, so that the quartz movement module always runs in the optimal torque state under the condition of effective power, thereby ensuring the timing accuracy of the quartz movement.
