Description

Connecting band of wearable equipment and wearable equipment

Technical Field

The invention relates to the technical field of wearable communication equipment, in particular to a connecting band of wearable equipment and the wearable equipment.

Background

With the development of technology, many conventional electronic products also begin to increase the functions of network interaction, such as watches that have been used only for viewing time, and nowadays, practical contents such as incoming call information and weather information can be displayed by connecting to the internet. At present, wearable equipment is a product which is favored by users in recent years, and with the continuous development of wearable equipment, the functional requirements of consumers on wearable equipment are higher and higher, so in order to meet the requirements of consumers, the wearable equipment is continuously implanted with various functions.

At present, the adjustment mode of the connecting band of the wearable device is generally worn by a user actively adjusting the length of the connecting band according to the size of the wearing position of the user. However, the adjustment mode is stepwise, taking the traditional three watchbands as an example, a user can adjust the size of the watchband by increasing or decreasing the number of the links, and the minimum adjustment amount is the width of one link during adjustment, so that the adjustment method cannot realize accurate adjustment according to the actual thickness of the wrist, which causes poor fitting effect of the watchband and the wrist, and is easy to cause discomfort such as shaking when the user wears the wearable device.

Especially for wearable devices such as smart watches and smart bracelets, sensors, such as photo sensors, which can be in contact with the skin of a user, are arranged inside the wearable devices. The wearable device can acquire the physiological parameters of the user through the sensor. In the process that the wearable device collects the physiological parameters of the user through the sensor, when a large gap exists between the watchband and the skin, the skin fitting effect of the sensor and the user is poor, so that the sensing precision of the sensor can be influenced by interference factors such as ambient light, and the accuracy when the wearable device collects the physiological parameters of the user (namely, contact measurement) is low. It is thus clear that current wearable equipment has the relatively poor problem of wearing effect. Of course, other wearable devices that are worn toward the ankle or waist, not limited to wearable devices that are worn toward the wrist, have the above-mentioned problems.

The connection portion 200 includes a first connection member 210, a second connection member 220 and a first hinge shaft 230, the first connection member 210 and the second connection member 220 are crosswise disposed on the first hinge shaft 230, and the first connection member 210 and the second connection member 220 rotate around the first hinge shaft 230, in a preferred embodiment, through holes may be disposed on both the first connection member 210 and the second connection member 220, and the first hinge shaft 230 is rotatably disposed in the through holes, so that the first connection member 210 can rotate relative to the second connection member 220. The rotation axis of the first hinge shaft 230 is generally perpendicular to a plane in which the first link 210 and the second link 220 intersect. Specifically, the first hinge shaft 230 is positioned between both ends of the first link 210, and the first hinge shaft 230 is also positioned between both ends of the second link 220.

In the embodiment of the present invention, two adjacent connection belt base bodies 100 are connected by the connection portion 200, that is, the connection portion 200 is connected to both sides of one connection belt base body 100. The connecting portion 200 can drive the first base 110 and the second base 120 on the connecting band base 100 to move towards each other, so that the elastic member 130 between the first base 110 and the second base 120 is compressed correspondingly to deform, and thus, stress enabling the connecting band to be restored exists on the connecting band, and the length of the connecting band can be adjusted freely.

The connecting band of the wearable device disclosed by the embodiment of the invention realizes the elastic adjustment function of the connecting band by arranging the elastic member 130 between the first base 110 and the second base 120, and simultaneously, the connecting part 200 is connected between the two connecting band base bodies 100, and the connection part 200 can realize the size change of the connection part 200 in the connection belt length direction by adjusting the positional relationship between the first connection member 210 and the second connection member 220, therefore, the connecting band disclosed by the embodiment of the invention can accurately adjust the length of the connecting band according to the tension change on the connecting band, so that the connecting band is tightly attached to the skin of a user, the discomfort of shaking and the like of the wearable equipment is avoided, meanwhile, the sensor of the wearable device can be well jointed with the skin of the user, the influence of interference factors such as ambient light on the sensing precision of the sensor can be avoided, therefore, the accuracy of the wearable device in the internal contact type measurement of the physiological parameters of the user can be improved.

As described above, two adjacent connecting belt base bodies 100 are connected by the connecting portion 200, and in a preferred embodiment, one end of the first connecting member 210 is hinged to the first base 110 of one connecting belt base body 100, and the other end of the first connecting member 210 is hinged to the second base 120 of another adjacent connecting belt base body 100; one end of the second connecting member 220 is hinged to the second base 120 of one connecting belt base body 100, and the other end of the second connecting member 220 is hinged to the first base 110 of another adjacent connecting belt base body 100, when the length of the connecting belt changes, the included angle between the first connecting member 210 and the second connecting member 220 correspondingly changes, and the size change of the connecting part 200 in the length direction of the connecting belt is realized by adjusting the angle between the first connecting member 210 and the second connecting member 220, so that the connecting part 200 has a simple structure, is convenient to arrange between two adjacent connecting belt base bodies 100, and has high reliability.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the connecting band base 100 and the connecting portion 200 adjust the length of the connecting band through elastic deformation as needed, so that the positions of the connecting band base 100 and the connecting portion 200 may need to be changed all the time, and the connecting band is in direct contact with the skin of the user, therefore, in order to avoid the connecting band base 100 and the connecting portion 200 whose positions are changed all the time from damaging the user or reducing the experience of the user, in a preferable scheme, the connecting band may further include the housing 300, the connecting band base 100 is disposed in the accommodating space 310 of the housing 300, the opposing sides of the housing 300 may be provided with the avoiding hole 320, the avoiding hole 320 is communicated with the accommodating space 310, the connecting portion 200 is connected with the connecting band base 100 through the avoiding hole 320, so that the connecting band is in contact with the skin of the user through the housing 300, the size of the housing 300 is unchanged, and deformation is difficult to occur, thereby preventing the connecting band from generating friction between On the contrary, a beautiful pattern may be designed on the housing 300 or a flash lamp or the like may be provided on the housing 300, so that the user experience of the connection band may be improved.

In a more preferable scheme, the material of the housing 300 may be silica gel, and the outer surface of the housing 300 may be frosted through frosting treatment, so that when the housing 300 is in contact with the skin of a user, the experience of the user is better.

Generally, when the elastic member 130 is compressed, the first base 110 and the second base 120 move towards each other, and the first base 110 and the second base 120 may be inclined when moving towards each other, which may cause the connection belt base 100 to be jammed. Therefore, in a preferable embodiment, the connection belt base 100 may further include a guide shaft 140, at least one of the first base 110 and the second base 120 is slidably disposed on the guide shaft 140, and the guide shaft 140 can provide a sliding guide function for the first base 110 or the second base 120, so as to prevent the first base 110 and the second base 120 from being tilted when moving toward each other.

As described above, the elastic member 130 is elastically disposed between the first base 110 and the second base 120, and when the connection band becomes long, the distance between the first base 110 and the second base 120 becomes smaller and smaller, so that the elastic member 130 is compressed, and during the compression process, since there is no limitation on the deformation direction of the elastic member 130 by other components, the first base 110 and the second base 120 may be displaced or misaligned, and the connection band base 100 may be damaged. Based on this, in a preferable scheme, the elastic member 130 is sleeved on the guide shaft 140, and the guide shaft 140 can effectively limit the deformation direction of the elastic member 130, so as to improve the reliability of the connection belt base body 100.

Specifically, the elastic member 130 may be a plurality of types, such as a cylindrical rubber block, and in a preferred embodiment, the elastic member 130 may be a spring or a cylindrical elastic block, which has a relatively simple structure, is easy for mass production, and has a relatively low production cost, and meanwhile, the spring or the cylindrical elastic block has a relatively high stability and is relatively difficult to fail, so that the reliability of the connection belt can be improved.

Generally, the first base 110 and the second base 120 may be a unitary structure or may be assembled by multiple parts, but due to technical limitations such as production process, the unitary structure of the first base 110 and the second base 120 is inconvenient to machine and relatively high in cost. Based on this, in a preferable scheme, each of the first base 110 and the second base 120 may include a moving block 111, a second hinge shaft 112, and a third hinge shaft 113, the moving block 111 may have a step hole 1111, the second hinge shaft 112 is hinged to the first connecting member 210 or the second connecting member 220 through the third hinge shaft 113, and the second hinge shaft 112 is rotatably disposed in the step hole 1111, which is a specific form of the first base 110 and the second base 120, and this scheme may enable the first base 110 and the second base 120 to have a simple structure, and at the same time, the first base 110 and the second base 120 of such a structure may be relatively simple in installation and removal work, and may reduce the probability of error of an installer in the installation process, thereby enabling the reliability of the connection strap to be relatively high, and at the same time, the convenience may be brought to a maintainer to detach the connection strap, thereby improving the maintenance efficiency.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the first base 110 and the second base 120 need to be moved toward each other by the second hinge shaft 112. Therefore, in a preferable scheme, the second hinge shaft 112 may have a second step surface adapted to the first step surface of the step hole 1111, and the first step surface is in limit fit with the second step surface, and in a specific working process, the first connecting member 210 or the second connecting member 220 pulls the second hinge shaft 112 to move, so that the second hinge shaft 112 drives the first base 110 and the second base 120 to move towards each other through the limit fit of the first step surface and the second step surface, and further, the connecting band in the embodiment of the present invention can adjust the length of the connecting band according to the change of the pulling force thereon, so as to improve the wearing effect of the wearable device.

Generally, in a specific working process of the third hinge shaft 113, the outer wall of the third hinge shaft 113 is subjected to two acting forces applied by the first mating hole 1121 and the second mating hole 211, so that the risk that the third hinge shaft 113 may be damaged due to shear stress during use is caused, meanwhile, the acting points of the two acting forces do not coincide, and a certain distance exists between the two acting points, so that the third hinge shaft 113 is subjected to a torque, and the third hinge shaft 113 may be bent. Therefore, in a preferable scheme, the end portions of the first connecting piece 210 and the second connecting piece 220 may include a first connecting layer and a second connecting layer, the second matching hole 211 may penetrate through the first connecting layer and the second connecting layer, and the second hinge shaft 112 is at least partially disposed between the first connecting layer and the second connecting layer, which can reduce the distribution of the external force applied to the third hinge shaft 113 to be uniform, and avoid the risk that the third hinge shaft 113 is damaged due to shear stress or torque, thereby improving the reliability of the connecting band base body 100.
