Step S3 is a calculation step: when implementing the above-mentioned step, comparison is conducted through the calculation module 13 according to the position time of the timepiece movement T2 acquired and inputted to the mobile device the time of the mobile device T1 (Step S31), and a differential value ΔT between the position time of the timepiece movement acquired and the time of the mobile device is calculated through the calculation module 13 according to a formula ΔT=T2−T1 (Step S32), wherein the differential value ΔT is a time error of each unit time.

Step S4 is a syncing step: a movement mode of the timepiece movement is controlled through the syncing module 14 according to the differential value calculated after step S3 is completely conducted.
To be specific, the movement mode of the timepiece movement of the embodiment firstly includes: a normal mode, the timepiece movement moving according to a default speed; a static mode, the timepiece movement entering a movement stopping state; and a syncing mode, the timepiece movement entering a quick rotation state.
the timepiece of the embodiment generates a timepiece movement control instruction according to the numerical value of the differential value ΔT.
when the differential value ΔT is equal to or greater than a predetermined value, the timepiece movement control instruction is conducted and the syncing module 14 controls to switch the movement mode of the timepiece movement to the syncing mode, and controls to switch the movement mode of the timepiece movement from the syncing mode to the normal mode after the movement of the timepiece movement is consistent with the time T1. In the embodiment, the predetermined value is 10 minutes.

Since the differential value ΔT of the comparison calculation is greater than the predetermined value, the syncing module 14 controls to switch the movement mode of the timepiece movement to the syncing mode, and the timepiece movement enters a quick rotating state, so that the syncing module 14 controls to switch the movement mode of the timepiece movement from the syncing mode to the normal mode after the timepiece movement moves clockwise from the time position 10:20 (T2) before switching to the syncing mode to a time position consistent with the time position 10:38 (T1).

At this moment, the timepiece enters a movement stopping state. After the syncing module 14 waits for a time modulus (5 min) equal to the differential value ΔT, the time of the mobile device T1 at this moment is 10:33. The syncing module 14 controls to switch the movement mode of the timepiece movement from the static mode to the normal mode, so that the timepiece movement rotates at a default speed.
As shown in
S1 is a pairing step: the pairing module 11 of the timepiece is configured to pair a timepiece with a mobile device through a wireless signal.
In the embodiment, the timepiece is paired with a smartphone through a Bluetooth signal.
The pairing flow between the smartphone and the device is as follows:
A mobile application and a Bluetooth of the smartphone are enabled to emit a signal for standby pairing detection;

Referring to
Step 1 is a pairing step to pair a timepiece with a mobile device through a wireless signal.
The pairing module 11 is configured to pair a timepiece with a mobile device through a wireless signal.
In the embodiment, the timepiece is paired with a smartphone through a Bluetooth signal.
The pairing flow between the smartphone and the device is as follows:
a mobile application and a Bluetooth of the smartphone are enabled to emit a signal for standby pairing detection;
the smartphone starts scanning and searches a Bluetooth device (timepiece) available for pairing; and
the pairing module 11 of the timepiece is enabled through a button on the timepiece, and the timepiece will buzz once. When the button is pressed for two seconds, the timepiece will beep twice transitorily and quickly. During this period, the timepiece will broadcast the Bluetooth ID thereof quickly and transitorily to complete the pairing process in a short period of time. It usually takes a few seconds for the entire pairing process, and the timepiece will beep thrice transitorily and quickly after the pairing is successful. If a matched device cannot be found in 20 seconds, the timepiece will stop searching a Bluetooth device (smartphone) available for pairing.
Step S2 is an extraction step to acquire the position time of the timepiece movement.
After step S1 is completely conducted, the position time of the timepiece movement is required to be acquired through the extraction module 12 when the timepiece has no battery power. The residence position time of the timepiece movement is detected visually or read through a camera lens of the mobile device, and the position time of the timepiece movement acquired is inputted to the storage module 15.
In order to accurately acquire the residence position time of the timepiece movement, in the embodiment, the camera lens focus in a position opposite to the front side of the timepiece movement, acquires the residence position of the timepiece movement, and calculates the residence time of the timepiece.
Step S20 is a storage step configured to store the data of the position time of the timepiece movement (T2) acquired. The data of the position time of the timepiece movement acquired can be stored through the storage module 15 before the battery power of the timepiece is completely exhausted.
Step S3 is a calculation step: when the timepiece is charged and after the timepiece is paired with the mobile device again, the calculation module 13 extracts the data of the residence position (T2) stored by the storage module 15 before the battery power of the timepiece is completely exhausted and compares T2 with the time of the mobile device (T1) (Step S31), calculates a differential value ΔT between the position time of the timepiece movement acquired and the time of the mobile device according to a formula ΔT=T2−T1 (Step S32), wherein the differential value ΔT is a time error of each unit time. For example, it is assumed that the position time of the timepiece movement T2 is 10:20, the time of the mobile device T1 is 10:28, then the differential value ΔT calculated according to the formula ΔT=T2−T1 is 8 minutes.
Step S4 is a syncing step to control a movement mode of the timepiece movement through the syncing module 14 according to a differential value calculated after step S4 is completely conducted.
To be specific, the movement mode of the timepiece movement of the embodiment firstly includes: a normal mode, the timepiece movement moving according to a default speed; a static mode, the timepiece movement entering a movement stopping state; and a syncing mode, the timepiece movement entering a quick rotation state.
the timepiece of the embodiment generates a timepiece movement control instruction according to the numerical value of the differential value ΔT.
When the differential value ΔT is equal to or greater than a predetermined value, the timepiece movement control instruction is conducted, and the timepiece emits a notification signal at the same time. The syncing module 14 controls to switch the movement mode of the timepiece movement to the syncing mode, and controls to switch the movement mode of the timepiece movement from the syncing mode to the normal mode after the movement of the timepiece movement is consistent with the time T1. The timepiece emits a notification signal again at the same time. In the embodiment, the predetermined value is 10 minutes. For example, it is assumed that the position time of the timepiece movement T2 is 10:20, the time of the mobile device T1 is 10:38, then the differential value ΔT calculated according to the formula ΔT=T2−T1 is 18 minutes. Since the differential value ΔT of the comparison calculation is greater than the predetermined value, the syncing module 14 controls to switch the movement mode of the timepiece movement to the syncing mode. At this moment, the timepiece will beep once, and the timepiece movement enters a quick rotating state, so that the syncing module 14 controls to switch the movement mode of the timepiece movement from the syncing mode to the normal mode after the timepiece movement moves clockwise from the time position 10:20 (T2) before switching to the syncing mode to a time position consistent with the time position 10:38 (T1). At this moment, the timepiece movement moves at a default speed, and the timepiece will beep transitorily and quickly to notify that the time calibration is completed. Similar to the foregoing description, it is assumed that the position time of the timepiece movement T2′ is 10:38, the time of the mobile device T1′ is 10:20, then the differential value ΔT′ calculated according to the formula ΔT′=T2′−T1′ is still 18 minutes. But a position relationship between the time of the timepiece movement and the time of the mobile device is changed. It may be derived from the positive and negative values of the differential value ΔT′ that the time position of the timepiece movement is in a hysteretic state relative to the time position of the mobile device. Therefore, when the conducting module 14 controls to switch the movement mode of the timepiece movement to the syncing mode, the timepiece movement moves anticlockwise from the time position 10:38 (T2′) before switching to the syncing mode to a time position consistent with the time position 10:20 (T1′), thus saving the time for adjusting and moving the timepiece movement.
When the differential value ΔT is less than the predetermined value, the timepiece movement control instruction is conducted, and the timepiece emits a notification signal at the same time. The syncing module 14 controls to switch the movement mode of the timepiece movement to the static mode, and controls to switch the movement mode of the timepiece movement from the static mode to the normal mode after waiting for a time value equal to the differential value ΔT, and the timepiece emits a notification signal again at the same time. In the embodiment, the predetermined value is 10 minutes. For example, it is assumed that the position time of the timepiece movement T2 is 10:33, the time of the mobile device T1 is 10:28, then the differential value ΔT calculated according to the formula ΔT=T2−T1 is 5 minutes. Since the differential value ΔT of the comparison calculation is less than the predetermined value, the syncing module 14 controls to switch the movement mode of the timepiece movement to the static mode. At this moment, the timepiece will beep once, and enter a movement stopping state. After the syncing module 14 waits for a time modulus (5 min) equal to the differential value ΔT, the time of the mobile device T1 at this moment is 10:33. The syncing module 14 controls to switch the movement mode of the timepiece movement from the static mode to the normal mode so that the timepiece movement moves at a default speed. At this moment, the timepiece will beep transitorily and quickly to notify that the time calibration is completed.
