We can map Java Date type value to TIME type column in database.

@Temporal(TemporalType.TIME)
private java.util.Date dob;

Example

The following code is from Person.java.

package com.java2s.common;
import javax.persistence.Entity;
import javax.persistence.Id;
import javax.persistence.Temporal;
import javax.persistence.TemporalType;

@Entity
public class Person {
  @Id
  private long id;
   
  private String name;
  @Temporal(TemporalType.TIME)
  private java.util.Date dob;
  public Person() {}

  public Person(String name) {
    this.name = name;
  }

  public java.util.Date getDob() {
    return dob;
  }

  public void setDob(java.util.Date dob) {
    this.dob = dob;
  }

  public Long getId() {
    return id;
  }
  public void setId(Long id) {
    this.id = id;
  }
  public String getName() {
    return name;
  }
  public void setName(String name) {
    this.name = name;
  }

  public String toString() {
    return "\n\nID:" + id + "\nName:" + name + "\n\n"+"Dob"+dob;
  }
}

The following code is from PersonDaoImpl.java.

package com.java2s.common;

import java.util.Calendar;
import java.util.List;

import javax.persistence.EntityManager;
import javax.persistence.PersistenceContext;

import org.springframework.transaction.annotation.Transactional;

@Transactional
public class PersonDaoImpl {
  public void test(){
    Person p1 = new Person("Tom");
    p1.setId(1L);
    p1.setDob(Calendar.getInstance().getTime());
    Person p2 = new Person("Jack");
    p2.setId(2L);
    
    save(p1);
    save(p2);

    listAll();
    
  }
  private void listAll(){
    List<Person> persons = getAll();
    for (Person person : persons) {
      System.out.println(person);
    }

  }
  @PersistenceContext
  private EntityManager em;
  
  
  public Long save(Person person) {
    em.persist(person);
    return person.getId();
  }
  
  public List<Person>getAll() {
    return em.createQuery("SELECT p FROM Person p", Person.class).getResultList();
  }
  
}

The following code is from App.java.

package com.java2s.common;

import org.springframework.context.support.ClassPathXmlApplicationContext;

public class App {

  public static void main(String[] args) {
    ClassPathXmlApplicationContext context = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext(
        "applicationContext.xml");
    PersonDaoImpl dao = (PersonDaoImpl) context.getBean("personDao");

    dao.test();

    context.close();
    
    Helper.checkData();
  }
}

The code above generates the following result.

The following is the database table dump.

Table Name: PERSON
 Row:
    Column Name: ID,
    Column Type: BIGINT:
    Column Value: 1

    Column Name: DOB,
    Column Type: TIME:
    Column Value: 13:59:34

    Column Name: NAME,
    Column Type: VARCHAR:
    Column Value: Tom

 Row:
    Column Name: ID,
    Column Type: BIGINT:
    Column Value: 2

    Column Name: DOB,
    Column Type: TIME:
    Column Value: null

    Column Name: NAME,
    Column Type: VARCHAR:
    Column Value: Jack
