The integral spring plate structure is convenient to process and manufacture. The elastic member 300 may be made of a steel plate.

The first elastic piece 310 is embedded in the watch band 200, so that the elastic piece 300 is fixedly mounted on the watch band 200. The second resilient piece 320 is used for acting with the key 400 and is clamped against the side wall of the first mounting groove 120. The second elastic sheet 320 plays a main role in deformation to realize convenient disassembly and assembly of the watch band 200.

The first elastic sheet 310 and the second elastic sheet 320 form a certain included angle, and/or the intersection of the first elastic sheet 310 and the second elastic sheet 320 is in a circular arc structure. The elastic member 300 is opened in a direction opposite to the insertion direction of the band 200 into the insertion opening 110, so that the elastic member 300 can be easily inserted and withdrawn.

For the specific installation structure of the elastic element 300, in some embodiments of the present application, the end of the watch band 200 is provided with the second installation groove 210, the first elastic piece 310 is connected to the second installation groove 210, and the second elastic piece 320 partially extends out of the second installation groove 210 in the original state, so as to deform under the action of an external force.

The first resilient piece 310 may be fixedly mounted to the top wall of the second mounting groove 210 by means of adhesion.

Furthermore, a slot 220 is formed in the second mounting groove 210, one end of the first elastic sheet 310 is inserted into the slot 220, the intersection joint of the first elastic sheet 310 and the second elastic sheet 320 abuts against the lateral wall of the second mounting groove 210, the first elastic sheet 310 is limited, the first elastic sheet 310 cannot be separated, and the fixed mounting of the elastic member 300 is realized.

The intersection junction of first shell fragment 310 and second shell fragment 320 is circular arc structure 330, and the shape and the circular arc structure 330 adaptation of the lateral wall that second mounting groove 210 and elastic component 300's bending position leaned on improve the spacing reliability to elastic component 300, avoid elastic component 300 to rock in second mounting groove 210, when second shell fragment 320 takes place deformation simultaneously, the adaptation structure of here also helps guaranteeing the smooth and easy nature and the reliability of deformation of second shell fragment 320.

Regarding the specific structure of the key 400, in some embodiments of the present application, the key 400 includes a key body 410 and protrusions 420 disposed at two ends of the key body 410, and the key body 410 is used for acting or pressing with the elastic member 300.

The first mounting groove 120 includes a first mounting groove body 121 and a necking part 122 provided at both sides of the first mounting groove body 121, and the first mounting groove body 121 is vertically penetrated with the socket 110.

The key body 410 is disposed in the first mounting groove body 121, the extension part 420 is disposed in the throat part 122, and external force applied to the key body 410 can move the extension part 420 up and down in the throat part 122.

The method specifically comprises the following steps: referring to fig. 6, when the watch band 200 is inserted into the socket 110, the second resilient piece 320 abuts against the key body 410, and applies an acting force away from the socket 110 to the key body 410, the key body 410 is forced to move in a direction away from the socket 110 (downward in the orientation shown in fig. 6), and drives the extension portion 420 to synchronously move downward in the throat portion 122, after the watch band 200 is inserted in place, the free end portion of the second resilient piece 320 abuts against the sidewall of the first mounting groove body 121, and the extension portion 420 abuts against the sidewall (specifically, the bottom wall in the orientation shown in fig. 3) of the throat portion 122, so that the elastic piece 300 is limited in the upper, lower, left and right directions, and the watch band 200 is fixedly mounted.

When the band 200 is detached, referring to fig. 7, the key body 410 is pressed in a direction close to the insertion opening 110 (upward in the orientation shown in fig. 7), and the key body 410 moves upward, thereby moving the protruding portion 420 upward in the throat portion 122.

In some embodiments of the present application, the outer surface of the key body 410 does not extend out of the casing of the device body 100, specifically, the casing is attached to the skin of the wearer, so as to prevent the key body 410 from being pressed by the skin to reduce the reliability of the watch band 200, and prevent the key body 410 from protruding outward to the skin of the wearer to reduce the wearing comfort.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the elastic element 300 extends along the width direction of the watch band 200, and the width of the key body 410 is not less than the width of the elastic element 300, so as to ensure that the entire elastic element 300 (particularly, the second elastic sheet 320) can achieve the function of the key body 410, thereby improving the deformation uniformity and reliability.
