When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, like numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present invention. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the invention, as detailed in the appended claims.

In the prior art, wearable electronic devices are provided with adjustment mechanisms to realize specific functions. For example, switching between different APPs; or, the display of multiple images is switched, for example, the electronic device acquires multiple photos, and needs to magnify and view one of the photos; or, views for multiple documents; or, viewing of a schedule record of a schedule application; or a notification view of unread messages, and so forth. In summary, the first function of the embodiment of the present application may be a switching function of various information to be displayed.

Therefore, the present disclosure provides an adjusting mechanism, which realizes a specific function through a single action, and is convenient for a user to operate.

Specifically, the wheel disc 1 drives the first rotating shaft 2, the first transmission assembly 3 and the second transmission assembly to rotate under the action of external force, and triggers the electronic device to execute a first function. The external force on the wheel disc 1 is removed, the compression of the elastic component 7 is removed, the first transmission component 3 is separated from the second transmission component, the rotation of the first rotating shaft 2, the first transmission component 3 and the second transmission component is stopped, and the electronic equipment stops the execution of the first function.

The wheel disc 1, the first rotating shaft 2 and the first transmission assembly can move towards the direction of the second transmission assembly by pressing the pressing force of the wheel disc 1, the spring assembly 7 is in a compression state, and at the moment, the first transmission assembly is meshed with the second transmission assembly. The rotating force of the wheel disc 1 is rotated, so that the wheel disc 1 drives the first transmission assembly to rotate, the first transmission assembly drives the second transmission assembly to rotate, and the electronic equipment is triggered to execute the first function.

Further, ceasing to perform the first function may include: and when the switching of the information to be displayed is stopped, the information to be displayed on the display screen when the switching is stopped is turned on.

Illustratively, if there are 10 images in the electronic device, with the rotation of carousel 1, 10 images stored in the smart glasses change on the display screen, if the user selects the 3 rd image, then can stop rotating carousel 1 when the 3 rd image is displayed on the display screen, and remove the pressing of carousel 1, at this moment, first transmission assembly 3 and second transmission assembly separate, the rotation of first pivot 2 and first transmission assembly 3 and second transmission assembly stops, the electronic device stops the selection function of image and opens the 3 rd image, through an action alright realize image selection and definite function, easy and simple to handle, improved operating efficiency.

It should be understood that the first function of the present embodiment is not limited. The first function can be selection of an APP, selection of an image, viewing of a plurality of documents, viewing of schedule records of schedule application and the like, so that one-by-one scroll viewing can be avoided, and the viewing efficiency is improved; the first function may also be to view notifications of unread messages, and the like.

Correspondingly, stopping the first function may include: when the APP is stopped to be selected, opening the application corresponding to the application icon displayed on the display screen when the selection is stopped; when the image selection is stopped, turning on the image displayed on the display screen when the selection is stopped; when the document viewing is stopped, opening the document displayed on the display screen when the document viewing is stopped; the schedule record displayed on the display screen when the viewing is stopped can be opened when the viewing of the schedule record of the schedule application is stopped; the unread messages displayed by the display screen when viewing is stopped may also be opened when the notification of the unread messages is stopped, and so on.

Optionally, this embodiment may also trigger the electronic device to execute a second function, such as a switching function of APP, when the wheel 1 is not pressed to rotate the wheel 1.

Illustratively, the user knows the position relation between every APP in the smart watch, APP-1 is adjacent to APP-2, APP-2 is adjacent to APP-3, and the display screen of the current smart watch shows the application of APP-1, the user wants to start the application of APP-2, then can directly rotate the wheel disc 1 that is not pressed, trigger the electronic equipment to execute the switching function of APP, the display screen of the smart watch directly switches to the application that shows APP-2 from the application that shows APP-1, specific function execution through single action is realized, and the operation is simple.

The parallel type hand wheel disc is convenient to operate compared with a vertical type rotating mechanism, a user can operate with one hand when wearing the hand wheel disc, great convenience is provided for the user, the diameter of the wheel disc 1 is large, the operation of the user is facilitated, and the user experience is improved.

Here, the first transmission assembly 3 of the present embodiment may be a single gear, two meshed pinions, or multiple meshed pinions, and when the first rotating shaft 2 rotates, one pinion of the first transmission assembly 3 mounted on the first rotating shaft 2 rotates, and drives the other pinions to rotate. Therefore, the present embodiment does not limit the specific structure of the first transmission assembly 3.

The first transmission component 3 and the second transmission component are separated by a preset distance, when the wheel disc 1 is pressed, the elastic component 7 is compressed, and the first transmission component 3 moves towards the second transmission component and is meshed with the second transmission component. When the external force is removed, the first transmission component 3 resets and is separated from the second transmission component by a preset distance. This embodiment does not restrict the distance of predetermineeing, and rim plate 1 can mesh first drive assembly 3 and second drive assembly when the external force is used to when the external force is removed, the rotation of first drive assembly 3 do not disturb the second drive assembly can.

The second transmission assembly of this embodiment may be a gear, two meshed pinions, or multiple meshed pinions, and when the first transmission assembly 3 and the second transmission assembly are meshed, the first transmission assembly 3 may drive the multiple pinions of the second transmission assembly to rotate, and may trigger the electronic device to perform the first function. Therefore, the present embodiment does not limit the specific structure of the second transmission assembly.

The elastic component 7 of the embodiment can be one or more springs arranged in parallel, or one or more elastic plastic parts arranged in parallel, and is simple in structure, low in cost and suitable for mass production. Wheel disc 1 is by the exogenic action, and elastic component 7 compresses, makes first drive assembly 3 and the meshing of second drive assembly, and after the external force on the wheel disc 1 was removed, the extruded elasticity of elastic component self elastic deformation impeld first drive assembly to reset, and first drive assembly 3 and the separation of second drive assembly.

The embodiment has the advantages of simple structure and low cost. Through the structural relation between pivot subassembly, rim plate 1, first drive assembly 3, second drive assembly and the elastic component 7, can realize specific function through single action, for example can realize APP's switching and affirmation simultaneously, make the switching mode more convenient, more efficient, the operating mode is more reasonable, more suitable humanization.

In one embodiment, the first transmission assembly 3 may comprise: a first gear; the second transmission assembly may include: a second gear 8. The second gear 8 is engaged with the first gear when the elastic member 7 is compressed, and is separated from the first gear when the compression of the elastic member 7 is restored.

The first gear and the second gear 8 are separated by a preset distance, when the wheel disc 1 is pressed, the elastic component 7 is compressed, and the first gear moves towards the second gear 8 and is meshed with the second gear 8. When the external force is removed, the first gear is reset and is separated from the second gear 8 by a preset distance. In the present embodiment, the preset distance is not limited, the wheel disc 1 can mesh the first gear and the second gear 8 when the external force is applied, and when the external force is removed, the rotation of the first gear does not interfere with the second gear 8.

Therefore, the third gear 5 is added in the embodiment, the diameter of the second gear 8 can be reduced, the volume of the first transmission assembly is reduced, and the volume of the adjusting mechanism can be further reduced.

If the second transmission assembly uses a plurality of gears, the transmission consumption is increased, the force of the wheel poking disc is increased, the size of the adjusting mechanism can be reduced, the transmission loss between the gears is larger, the force of the wheel poking disc is also larger, and the user experience degree is reduced. Therefore, the first transmission assembly of this embodiment sets up a gear, and the second transmission assembly sets up to two gears, can be when reducing adjustment mechanism's volume for rotatory rim plate 1's dynamics is more moderate, and the user need not use very big power degree rotatory rim plate, and convenience of customers operates, also can improve user experience degree.

Since the diameter of the disk 1 is large, the size of the adjustment mechanism is relatively increased if the diameter of the first gear is also large, and therefore, the diameter of the first gear 3 in this embodiment is smaller than the diameter of the disk 1.

Further, the diameter of the first gear 3 is smaller, in order to make the volumes of the second transmission line assembly and the first transmission assembly relatively smaller, a driven gear is required to be added between the first gear 3 and the second gear 8, namely the third gear 5, and the diameter of the third gear 5 is larger than the diameter of the first gear 3 and the diameter of the second gear 8.
