Battery check device
First Claim
1. A battery check device comprising:
- (a) display means, said means including a first and a second terminal for carrying out a display with colors in accordance with the level of the signals delivered to the respective terminals;
(b) first signal forming means for decreasing the output signal in accordance with the decrease of the power source voltage, the output signal of said means being delivered to the first terminal of the display means; and
(c) second signal forming means for increasing the output signal in accordance with the decrease of the power source voltage, the output signal of said means being delivered to the second terminal of the display means;
whereby the display means carries out the display with colors corresponding to the state of the power source voltage in accordance with the output signals from the first and the second signal forming means.

Abstract
The present invention relates to a battery check device particularly for displaying the state of the power source voltage with color. Until now, the battery checker for displaying the state of the power source voltage with color is provided with a plural number of color light emitting elements so as to display the state of the power source voltage with color by selectively driving the determined display element in accordance with the state of the power source voltage. However, by means of this conventional method, the state of the power source voltage can not be displayed continuously, which is inconvenient. In order to eliminate the above shortcoming, the present invention provides a battery checker for continuously displaying the change of the level of the power source voltage with color by continuously changing the color of the display means in accordance with the signal level corresponding to the state of the power source voltage.
