A wrist watch with an alarm having a vibratory plate supported at a point inside the bottom housing of the wrist watch. The vibratory plate comprises a piezoelectric element, a base electrode fixed on one side of the element. Audible time sound is emitted through the bottom housing, which produces transmitted vibrations by the application of AC voltage to the piezoelectric element.
The piezo-electric device (9) which connects a glass (8) to a movement (3) of the timepiece (1) is arranged in such a way as to deform in flexion in response to an exciting signal applied to its electrodes. The attachment zones (9a,9b) of this device (9) to this glass (8) and respectively to this movement (3) are distinct one from the other when the timepiece (1) is looked at in a direction perpendicular to the planes of the principal faces of the device (9). Thanks to this arrangement, the sound produced by the displacement of the glass (8) when the exciting signal is applied to the electrodes of the piezo-electric device (9) is more intense than in a known timepiece.
A device includes: a communication device case 2 having therein a display panel 13 supported by a support frame 12 and a circuit board 15 stacked with a battery 22 and electrically connected to the battery 22; and an antenna 6 housed in the communication device case 2, the antenna having a first conductor portion 23 formed in a ring, a second conductor portion 24 opposed to the first conductor portion 23 at a predetermined interval, and a third conductor portion 25 for electrically connecting the first conductor portion 23 and the second conductor portion 24. And a communication module assembly 3 is formed by disposing a communication device module in the antenna 6, the communication device module including the circuit board and the support frame. And the first conductor portion 23 of the antenna 6 in the communication device module assembly is positioned on a side of the circuit board 15 opposite to the support frame and outward, and the second conductor portion 24 is positioned on a side of the support frame 12 opposite to the circuit board and outward. As a result, the conductor portion of the antenna is positioned in an outermost portion of the communication device module. Therefore, the dimension of strap in the thickness direction and the dimension of the communication device case in the plane direction can be set to small values, respectively. In addition, favorable feeling of wearing the communication device can be obtained, and the size of the communication device as a whole can be made small.
The mower front independent suspension assembly in some embodiments of the present invention includes a first suspension arm connected to the front of the lawn mower frame and a second suspension arm connected to the side of the lawn mower frame. In some embodiments, the first suspension arm is connected to the front of the frame at or near the longitudinal center of the frame, while the second suspension arm is connected to the side of the frame a distance from the front of the frame. Also, in some embodiments the cutter deck of the lawn mower is connected to the front independent suspension assemblies for movement therewith.
