Detailed Description

In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the specific embodiments of the present invention and the accompanying drawings. It is to be understood that the described embodiments are merely exemplary of the invention, and not restrictive of the full scope of the invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

The technical solutions disclosed in the embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As shown in fig. 1 to 7, the embodiment of the present invention discloses a wearable device, which includes a device body 100 and a connection band assembly connected to the device body 100. Alternatively, the wearable device may be a smart watch, smart bracelet, electronic belt, or the like. When the wearable device is an electronic watch, the device body 100 may be provided with a dial, and two connection band assemblies may be provided, which are respectively connected to both sides of the device body 100.

Specifically, the device main body 100 is provided with a connection hole 110 and an accommodating space 120 communicated with the connection hole 110, and the connection belt assembly includes a belt body 200 and a connection portion 300, wherein the connection portion 300 is disposed at one end of the belt body 200 facing the device main body 100. That is, after the apparatus body 100 is connected to the connection belt assembly, the surface of the apparatus body 100 where the connection hole 110 is opened is opposite to the surface of the belt body 200 where the connection part 300 is provided, and they may be in contact with each other. A portion of the connection portion 300 may extend into the receiving space 120 through the connection hole 110 and be in limit-fitting with the apparatus body 100. In one embodiment, the connection portion 300 may be configured to be elastic, so that when the device body 100 and the connection belt assembly are connected, the connection portion 300 contacts the connection hole 110 and is deformed to enter the connection hole 110, and then the connection portion 300 may be deformed again to be engaged with the device body 100 in a limited manner.

Since the connection portion 300 is disposed at one end of the belt body 200 facing the device main body 100, after the connection belt assembly is connected to the device main body 100, the connection portion 300 can be hidden by the device main body 100, and a user is unlikely to operate the connection portion 300 by mistake, so that the connection between the connection belt assembly and the device main body 100 is more reliable. Simultaneously, this structure can also reduce the arch of the one side of wearable equipment and user contact to promote user experience, in addition, adopt hidden connecting portion 300, can effectively promote wearable equipment's outward appearance expressive force.

It is mentioned above that the connection part 300 may be provided with an elastic structure to realize the connection between the device body 100 and the connection belt assembly, but such a structure has a high requirement on the elastic capability of the connection part 300 and is also inconvenient for realizing the connection operation. For this, the connection part 300 may be provided in a bar-shaped structure, and the connection hole 110 is a bar-shaped hole, and in the case where the connection part 300 is connected to the apparatus body 100, the connection part 300 may be rotated between the first position and the second position with respect to the apparatus body 100. Wherein: when the connecting portion 300 is located at the first position, in the axial direction of the connecting hole 110, the projection of the connecting portion 300 is located within the projection of the connecting hole 110, and at this time, the connecting portion 300 can freely enter and exit the connecting hole 110; when the connecting portion 300 is located at the second position, in the axial direction of the connecting hole 110, the projection of the connecting portion 300 is at least partially located outside the projection of the connecting hole 110, and at this time, the connecting portion 300 is in spacing fit with the apparatus main body 100, and the two cannot be separated.

With the above structure, the user can rotate the belt body 200, thereby achieving rotation of the connection part 300 with respect to the apparatus main body 100. Specifically, the strap body 200 may be first rotated so that the connection portion 300 reaches the first position, so that the connection portion 300 enters the connection hole 110, and after the connection portion 300 enters the connection hole 110, the strap body 200 may be rotated again so that the connection portion 300 rotates a certain angle in the connection hole 110, and finally reaches the second position, so that the connection between the connection strap assembly and the device main body 100 is achieved. When the connecting band assembly needs to be disassembled, the band body 200 is also rotated, so that the connecting portion 300 is rotated from the second position to the first position, and then the connecting portion 300 can be driven by the band body 200 to move out of the connecting hole 110, so as to separate the connecting band assembly from the device main body 100. Alternatively, when the connecting portion 300 is switched between the first position and the second position, the belt body 200 may drive the connecting portion 300 to rotate by 90 °. It can be seen that, with this structure, the structure of the connection part 300 can be flexibly set, and at the same time, a user does not need to apply a large force to achieve the connection between the connection band assembly and the apparatus body 100.

In a further embodiment, the wearable device may further include a first positioning portion 400, the first positioning portion 400 is disposed at an end of the band 200 facing the device main body 100, the device main body 100 is further provided with a second positioning portion 130, and the first positioning portion 400 and the second positioning portion 130 are in positioning fit when the connecting portion 300 is connected to the device main body 100. At this time, the first and second positioners 400 and 130 may cooperate to restrict the rotation of the connection part 300 with respect to the apparatus body 100, and the connection part 300 may be driven to rotate with respect to the apparatus body 100 only when a large force is applied by a user, thereby preventing the connection part 300 from being accidentally rotated to be separated from the apparatus body 100.

In order to simplify the structure of the first positioning portion 400 and the second positioning portion 130, one of the first positioning portion 400 and the second positioning portion 130 is a positioning groove, and the other is a positioning protrusion, and the positioning protrusion is positioned and engaged with the positioning groove when the connection portion 300 is connected to the apparatus main body 100. Optionally, the positioning groove may be an arc-shaped groove, and the end of the positioning convex portion may be a spherical structure, so as to process the positioning convex portion and the positioning groove.

In an alternative embodiment, the positioning protrusion may be disposed on the belt body 200, and correspondingly, the positioning groove may be disposed on the device body 100. Optionally, the positioning protrusion may be made of a plastic material (e.g., polyoxymethylene) to improve the wear resistance of the positioning protrusion, thereby prolonging the life of the positioning protrusion. At this time, the belt body 200 has a receiving hole 210, the positioning protrusion may include a base 410 and an inserting portion 420, the base 410 is disposed in the receiving hole 210, and at least a portion of the inserting portion 420 is located outside the receiving hole 210 and can be positioned and matched with the positioning groove. Thus, the receiving hole 210 can receive at least a portion of the positioning protrusion, so that the size of the positioning protrusion can be increased appropriately, the structural strength of the positioning protrusion is increased, and the positioning protrusion can be more conveniently disposed.

Furthermore, the accommodating hole 210 is provided with an elastic member 500 therein, one end of the elastic member 500 is fixed in the accommodating hole 210, and the other end of the elastic member 500 abuts against the base 410 when the inserting portion 420 is in positioning fit with the positioning groove. Alternatively, the elastic member 500 may be a spring. At this time, the positioning protrusion may move relative to the receiving hole 210, and when the insertion part 420 of the positioning protrusion contacts with the device body 100, the positioning protrusion moves in a direction away from the device body 100 as a whole, so that the insertion part 420 may slide along a surface where the positioning groove is located on the device body 100 (i.e., a surface of the device body 100 facing the tape 200), and in the process, the elastic member 500 is deformed by a force. When the inserting part 420 slides to the position opposite to the positioning groove, the elastic member 500 can apply an acting force to the positioning convex part, so that the positioning convex part moves along the direction close to the positioning groove, the end part of the inserting part 420 enters the positioning groove, and then is in positioning fit with the positioning groove. This structure can guarantee the more smooth cooperation of location convex part and constant head tank on the one hand, can make to form bigger effort between location convex part and the constant head tank with the help of elastic component 500 simultaneously to optimize the location effect.

Optionally, the wearable device may further include a cover 600 having a through hole 610, the cover 600 is connected to the band 200, the cover 600 may cover the receiving hole 210, the base 410 is in positioning fit with the cover 600, and one end of the plug 420 passes through the cover 600 through the through hole 610 and protrudes from a side of the cover 600 facing the device body 100. The cover plate 600 and the strap body 200 can be detachably connected, adhered, etc. so that the cover plate 600 can be flexibly mounted on the strap body 200 and dismounted from the strap body 200 to facilitate the dismounting and mounting of the positioning protrusions.

In order to further enhance the positioning effect, the number of the first positioning portions 400 and the second positioning portions 130 may be at least two, each of the first positioning portions 400 is correspondingly matched with each of the second positioning portions 130, and each of the first positioning portions 400 is distributed on two sides of the connecting portion 300. This structure can increase the spacing position between equipment main part 100 and the connecting band subassembly on the one hand, can also make the spacing power distribution between equipment main part 100 and the connecting band subassembly more even simultaneously to strengthen the location effect.

Alternatively, the belt body 200 may be a flexible structure as a whole, but such a structure may weaken the strength of the connecting portion 300 and the like, which is not favorable for the connection of the connecting belt assembly with the apparatus main body 100. To solve this problem, the belt body 200 may specifically include a main body 220 and a structural member 230 integrally formed with the main body 220, wherein the connecting portion 300 is disposed on the structural member 230. The main body 220 may be a flexible structure, and the structural member 230 may be a rigid structure, so that the connection strength between the connection portion 300 and the strap 200 is higher, thereby improving the connection reliability between the connection strap assembly and the device main body 100. In addition, the structure may increase the integrity of the connector strip assembly such that the components contained within the connector strip assembly are not easily lost. Alternatively, the structural member 230 may be formed by a powder metallurgy process, so that the structural member 230 is not easily deformed, the main body 220 may be made of a silicone material, and the structural member 230 and the main body 220 may be formed by integral injection molding. In addition, the connection portion 300 may be provided separately from the structural member 230 or integrally with the structural member, which is not limited herein.
