Generally, these wearable devices are worn on the wrist, like a watch, and most of the wearable devices are worn and fixed on the limb, such as the wrist, by using a common watchband structure and a motion sensing module.
However, most of the wearing devices in the market use a watchband structure to attach the sensing module to the limbs, which is similar to the wearing manner of a common watch.

Detailed Description
Fig. 1 is a top view and a side view showing a tightening device according to a first preferred embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 2 is a schematic view showing a fastened fastening device as shown in fig. 1 and a top view of a fastening piece of the fastening device. In fig. 1, the binding device 20 includes: 1. a binding belt (having a first end 1 and a second end 1') made of an elastic material having an elastic coefficient of K1; 2. a plurality of elastic connection members 2/2' made of an elastic material having an elastic coefficient K2, K2 ═ K1; 3. a plurality of (saw-tooth) notches 3/3', each of the notches having a dimension that is smaller than a dimension of the bottom of the groove; 4. a plurality of groove sidewalls 4/4', the measured angle between the groove sidewalls and the groove bottom being less than 90 degrees; 5. a plurality of contact pads 5/5' formed outside the bottom of the recess for intimate contact with the skin; 6. a carrying seat 6 connected to the fastening band for carrying a device to be attached to another object or a limb by the fastening band; 7. a slide groove 7/7' for cooperating with the tightening buckle 11 to allow the tightening buckle 11 to move in the slide groove to facilitate the tightening operation; 8. a bonding portion 8/8 'having a thickness which is gradually distributed and is not substantially smaller than the other portion of the fastening band 1/1'; 9. a connecting member 9/10 (also referred to as a first connecting member) located at the connecting portion 8 of the fastening belt 1, the connecting member 9/10 being on the same side of the contact pad 5 and the elastic connecting member 2; in the embodiment, when the fastening belt body is made of fiber, the combination component can be a magic felt, and if the fastening belt body is made of polymer materials such as silica gel, rubber or resin, or metal materials, the combination component can be a buckling component structure; the fastener can be a structure in which the protrusion is matched with the concave hole or the column is matched with the through hole; 10. a connecting member 9 '/10' (which can also be regarded as a second connecting member) located at the connecting portion 8 'of the fastening band 1', and the connecting member 9 '/10' is located on the same side of the contact pad 5 'and the elastic connecting member 2', respectively; and 11. a fastening buckle 11 having a fastening buckle rod 11R/11R '(see fig. 2) and a buckle opening 11H (see fig. 2) disposed in the sliding groove 7/7', wherein the fastening buckle rod 11R/11R 'slides on the sliding space, and the buckle opening 11H allows the first and second ends 1 and 1' of the fastening band to pass through.
The tightening device 20 of the present invention has a plurality of resilient connection members 2/2 ', a plurality of (saw-toothed) grooves 3/3 ' and a plurality of contact pads 5/5 ' configured to convert a tensile force acting along the lengthwise direction of the tightening strap into a positive force applied to the skin, so that the tightening device 20 is securely attached to the limb. The binding 20 includes a binding band 1/1 ', the binding band 1/1' having a tension-enhancing contact force configuration. The tightening strap 1/1 'is structured to have a thickness distribution (see attachment portion 8/8') to match the tightening or tightening effect of a particular step of the wearing operation.
To create the contemplated variations, the fastening device 20 includes a fastening strap 1/1' of a material specifically selected and configured with unique structural designs. The tightening strap 1/1 'is essentially an elastic material M with a modulus of elasticity K1, and the tightening device 20 has a plurality of elastic connecting members 2/2' which are essentially another elastic material N with a modulus of elasticity K2. With respect to the construction of the tightening device 20, the longitudinal sides of the tightening device 20 are constructed with a saw-toothed groove structure 3/3 ' which traverses the width of the tightening strap 1/1 ', the cross-sectional structure of the groove being such that the bottom of the enlarged groove has an opening dimension smaller than the dimension of the groove bottom, a contact pad 5/5 ' is located below the bottom of the groove, the angle of measurement of the side wall 4/4 ' of the groove is smaller than 90 degrees, and the two sides of the opening end of the groove are connected by a resilient connecting member 2/2 ' so that the cross-sectional structure of the tightening device is still continuous in force transmission. Regarding the stress distribution and deformation of the tightening device, since the elastic coefficient K1 of the tightening strap is greater than the elastic coefficient K2 of the connecting member connecting the opening of the groove, and the size of the tightening strap is greater than the size of the elastic connecting member, so that the rigidity of the tightening strap is higher than the rigidity of the elastic connecting member, when the tightening strap is under tension, the amount of deformation of the elastic connecting member on the opening of the groove will be greater than the amount of deformation of the tightening strap due to the tangential tension of the tension, resulting in an increase in the measurement angle of the side walls 4/4 ', and further an increase in the positive pressure component of the tension acting on the tightening strap 1/1 ' along the side walls, resulting in a more secure contact between the contact pads 5/5 ' and the skin of the limb, and a more secure tightening of the tightening strap on the limb.
The invention proposes a method for operating a tightening device for tightening attachment to an object, which is described in sequence with the following steps:
the wearing method of the binding belt comprises the following steps:
when the strap fastener rods 11R and 11R 'are disposed in the slide grooves 7 and 7', respectively, the first and second ends 1 and 1 'of the strap are passed through the fastener opening 11H of the strap fastener 11 so that the first and second ends 1 and 1' of the strap are bound to the strap fastener opening 11H, as shown in step 31 of FIG. 3 a. At this time, the first and second ends 1 and 1 'of the fastening band can be simultaneously tightened by one hand, and the fastening device 11 is pushed by the thumb and the index finger and the first and second ends 1 and 1' of the fastening band are tightened by the other three fingers and the palm, so that the coupling portions 8 and 8 'are pressed against each other due to the thickening of the thickness of the coupling portions 8 and 8' when passing through the fastener opening 11H of the fastening device 11, and the coupling members 9 and 9 'are coupled to each other so that the fastening bands 1 and 1' do not move relatively.
As shown in fig. 3b, the first and second ends 1 and 1 'of the coupled fastening band are simultaneously stretched rightward to be closely attached at the coupling portion 8, the coupled fastening bands 1 and 1' are partially wound around the fastening bar 11R to be tightened again, and are fastened and fixed by the coupling members 10 of the fastening band 1 at both sides of the fastening bar 11R, as shown in step 32.
As shown in step 33 of FIG. 3c, the second end 1 'of the fastening band which has been coupled to the first end 1 of the fastening band is grasped with fingers and a force is applied to separate the second end 1' of the fastening band from the fastening band 1 which has been coupled by the coupling member 10.
As shown in step 34 of FIG. 3d, the second end 1 'of the fastening band is stretched by force to make the joint portion 8' tightly and partially wrap around the fastening rod 11R 'to be tightened again, and similarly, the joint members 10' of the second end 1 'of the fastening band on both sides of the fastening rod 11R' are fastened together to complete the fastening of the fastening band.
Fig. 4a is a schematic view showing a combined elastic connection member, indentation, contact pad and partial tightening belt structure as a free body for representing various forces and structural deformations acting thereon according to a first preferred embodiment of the present invention. In fig. 4a, Ts is the tensile stress acting on the wristband and Rs is the reaction force applied on the contact pad contacting the skin. The solid line portion shown in fig. 4a represents the shape of the structures before being stressed, and the dotted line portion represents the distribution of the tensile and compressive stresses and the deformation conditions of the structures after being stressed.
FIG. 4b is a schematic view showing the forces and structural deformations experienced by a tension stress on a strap according to a first preferred embodiment of the inventive concept when simultaneously acting on the resilient connecting members connecting both sides of the top of the serrated groove and the strap itself. In fig. 4b, Tss is the tangential stress of the tensile stress acting on the wristband, Tsc is the positive compressive stress component of the tensile stress, and a is the angular change of the side wall of the saw-tooth groove (an angle greater than the original angle a 0) due to Tss, causing Tsc to press the contact pad and ensure that the contact pad is in close contact with the skin.
As shown in fig. 4b, due to the difference of the material or the thickness of the structural tissue, the elastic modulus K2 of the elastic connecting member is smaller than the elastic modulus K1 of the tightening belt member, so that the strain or the total geometric deformation of the elastic connecting member, such as the length deformation is larger than the strain or the total geometric deformation of the tightening belt structure, and the angle of the side wall of the saw-tooth groove is enlarged by the tangential component of the tensile stress, thereby increasing the angle a. Because the elastic connecting component is elongated and deformed by a larger amount than the elongated deformation of the tightening belt structure, the deformed elastic connecting component applies a pressing force towards the direction of the tightening belt structure contacting the skin, and the angle (A0+ A) of the side wall of the sawtooth-shaped groove after deformation is closer to the vertical 90 degrees, so that the positive compression stress component of the tensile stress acting on the tightening belt structure is increased and is pressed on the contact pad at the bottom of the sawtooth-shaped groove in a closer positive way, and the contact pad is more reliably contacted with the skin, namely the tightening belt is reliably bound on the limb.
Fig. 5 is a side view showing a tightening apparatus according to a second preferred embodiment of the present invention. In fig. 5, the tightening means 30 according to the second preferred embodiment of the present invention is different from the tightening means 20 according to the first preferred embodiment of the present invention in that: the groove side walls 31 of the plurality of grooves arranged on the fastening belt are arc-shaped sections. Fig. 6a and 6b show enlarged views of the dashed line in fig. 5.
Fig. 6a is a schematic view showing a combined elastic connection member, indentation, contact pad and partial tightening belt structure as a free body for representing various forces and structural deformations acting thereon according to a second preferred embodiment of the present invention. This is the stress analysis freeform figure of the upper groove of the tightening belt in the wearing state. The two sides of the saw-toothed groove are stretched by a tension force Ts, and the contact pad arranged at the bottom of the groove bears a contact force Rs of the wearing limb, and these three forces are balanced to make the wearing device properly restrained on the limb. When the user moves, the three forces may change due to the shaking of the limbs, the contraction of the muscles of the limbs, the moisture on the skin of the limbs and the movement of the body, so that the balance state during static wearing is changed, and the wearing device is displaced or moves along with the movement of the body or the limbs.
FIG. 6b is a schematic view showing the forces and structural deformations experienced by a tension stress on a strap according to a second preferred embodiment of the present inventive concept while acting on the elastic connecting member connecting both sides of the top end of the serrated groove and the strap itself. As shown in fig. 6b, the first advantage of the groove sidewall 31 having the arc-shaped cross section of the zigzag groove is that, similar to the groove sidewall 4/4' having the straight cross section of the first embodiment, the tangential component Tss of the tension Ts applied to both sides of the groove sidewall deforms the arc sidewall stretching angle θ, i.e., the arc sidewall deforms from the solid line position to the dotted line position by the Tss tension, and the elastic connecting member connected to the opening of the groove also deforms corresponding to the opening angle of the connected groove sidewall, thereby generating the tension for binding the wearing apparatus on the limb. The second advantage is that the characteristic of the curved sidewall 31, that is, the forward component Tsc of Ts, is applied to the curved sidewall 31, which causes the sidewall to deform toward the bottom of the groove, so that Tsc is stably applied to the bottom to press the contact point to tightly contact the skin of the limb, and the two sides of the groove deform symmetrically to form a clamping effect on the contact pad at the bottom of the groove, thereby securing the contact pad on the skin of the limb.
