[0033] How it works

[0034] First, record the calls of various birds in the built-in player of the speaker 38, then set the single-chip microcomputer, light-controlled switch and hourly time-telling circuit on the circuit board, and electrically connect the single-chip microcomputer, light-controlled switch and hourly time-telling circuit to the power supply and switch 312 through the line. After the connection is completed, match the fixing tube 32 on the surface of the back cover 3 with the fixing rod 14, and limit the fixing tube 32 by the fixing block on the surface of the fixing rod 14, and then adjust the position of the lampshade 35 side and the limiting block 3 on the side of the mounting block 33. 7 is matched with the limiting rod 15 inside the front cover 11 and fixed with bolts. After the fixing is completed, the front cover 11 and the rear cover 3 are connected by screwing the bolts into the bolt holes 311. After the connection is completed, the hour hand, minute hand and second hand are installed on the end of the movement 34 extending outside the rotating hole 13, and the three hands are positioned inside the clock face 4. Then, lithium batteries are installed in the first battery compartment 31 and the second battery compartment 39 to power the circuit components on the circuit board, the movement 34, the light-emitting lamp beads and the speaker 38;

[0035] When in use, the movement 34 drives the dial to rotate. After the movement 34 rotates one circle, it starts to tell the time on the hour and illuminates the time. When the clock tells the time on the hour, the microcontroller outputs a high-level signal to control the conduction of each group of light-emitting lamp beads, making them emit light within a certain period of time. At the same time, the power supply of the player built into the speaker 38 is turned on, thereby playing the sounds of different birds.
