发明名称 Time measurement device
摘要 A time measurement device includes: a higher-digit indication hand that is configured to indicate a higher digit of a measured time; a lower-digit indication hand that is configured to reciprocate and indicate a lower digit of the measured time on a forward route and on a return route; a first drive unit that is configured to drive the higher-digit indication hand; a second drive unit that is configured to drive the lower-digit indication hand; a time counter that is configured to measure a time; a first drive controller that is configured to control the first drive unit to drive the higher-digit indication hand based on the measured time measured by the time counter; and a second drive controller that is configured to control the second drive unit to drive the lower-digit indication hand based on the measured time measured by the time counter, the second drive controller reciprocating the lower-digit indication hand at a predetermined period, and the first drive controller moving the higher-digit indication hand at a time interval equal to or less than a half of the predetermined period.

主权项 1. A time measurement device, comprising: a first indication hand that is configured to indicate a digit of a measured time; a second indication hand that is configured to reciprocate in a movement area, and is configured to indicate a lower digit of the measured time than the first indication hand by pointing at graduations provided around the movement area on a forward route and on a return route, the same graduations being used to indicate the lower digit of the measured time on both the forward route and the return route; a first drive unit that is configured to drive the first indication hand; a second drive unit that is configured to drive the second indication hand; a time counter that is configured to measure a time; a first drive controller that is configured to control the first drive unit to drive the first indication hand based on the measured time measured by the time counter; and a second drive controller that is configured to control the second drive unit to drive the second indication hand based on the measured time measured by the time counter, the second drive controller reciprocating the second indication hand at a predetermined period, and the first drive controller moving the first indication hand at a time interval equal to or less than a half of the predetermined period.
