Abstract: An electromagnetic counter includes an electromagnetic counting mechanism in a frame, a plurality of number wheels at least one of which is configured to rotate through a predetermined angle in response to rotation of an electromagnetically motivated anchor, wherein each of the number wheels is disposed proximate a window provided in the front of a frame enclosing cover to form a readable display section. A mounting board supports a light emitting diode for illuminating the display section, and a wiring pattern that supplies electrical power to the light emitting diode. A reflective surface is provided on at least one of an internal surface of the cover member to reflect light from the light emitting diode toward the numbered wheels, the periphery of one or more of the numbered wheels, and indicia formed in the numbered wheels, to render the number wheels readily readable when illuminated by the light emitting diode.

Abstract: An electromagnetic counter includes a case, an electromagnet, an anchor rotatable through magnetization and demagnetization of the electromagnet, and number wheels rotated by a predetermined angle according to the rotation of the anchor. A flexible board with a light emitting diode is disposed in a confined space in the case for illuminating the number wheels.
