Techniques, methods, and apparatus known to those of ordinary skill in the relevant art may not be discussed in detail but are intended to be part of the specification where appropriate.

In all examples shown and discussed herein, any particular value should be construed as merely illustrative, and not limiting. Thus, other examples of the exemplary embodiments may have different values.

It should be noted that: like reference numbers and letters refer to like items in the following figures, and thus, once an item is defined in one figure, it need not be discussed further in subsequent figures.

As shown in fig. 1 to 4 and 9 to 11, the present application provides an attachment component, which includes a housing 3, a hook 4, a reset element 5 and an electromagnet assembly 6.

The hook 4 is rotatably arranged in the shell 3, part of the hook 4 extends out of the shell 3, the reset piece 5 is connected with the hook 4, and part of the electromagnet assembly 6 is arranged on the hook 4.

Under the condition that the electromagnet assembly 6 is electrified, the resetting piece 5 is deformed, and the clamping hook 4 is separated from the locking position; when the electromagnet assembly 6 is powered off, the reset piece 5 is reset, and the hook 4 is restored to the locking position.

The shell 3 is used for providing accommodating space for the clamping hook 4, the reset piece 5 and the electromagnet assembly 6, and plays a role in protecting the clamping hook 4, the reset piece 5 and the electromagnet assembly 6. The housing 3 may be made of plastic or metal.

The hook 4 is rotatably disposed on the housing 3, for example, the hook 4 is hinged to the housing 3, so that the hook 4 can rotate relative to the housing 3, and connection with other parts through the hook 4 can be ensured. Part of the hook 4 extends out of the shell 3, so that the part of the hook 4 extending out of the shell 3 can be in contact with other parts, and the hook 4 of the embodiment of the application can be ensured to be connected with other parts.

The reset piece 5 is connected with the hook 4, and part of the electromagnet assembly 6 is arranged on the hook 4. The magnetic property generated after the electromagnet assembly 6 is powered on can enable the hook 4 to rotate relative to the shell 3, and after the electromagnet assembly 6 is powered off, the reset piece 5 can enable the hook 4 to be reset to the position before rotation.

Under the condition that the electromagnet assembly 6 is electrified, the resetting piece 5 is deformed, and the clamping hook 4 is separated from the locking position. That is, the electromagnet assembly 6 is energized to generate magnetism to rotate the hook 4, so that the hook 4 is released from the locking position. For example, after the hook 4 rotates, the hook 4 changes from the closed state to the open state. The reset component is driven by the hook 4 to deform while the hook 4 rotates.

When the electromagnet assembly 6 is powered off, the reset piece 5 is reset, and the hook 4 is restored to the locking position. That is to say, magnetism disappears after the electromagnetic assembly is powered off, and the deformed reset assembly can drive the hook 4 to rotate in the process of self recovering, so that the hook 4 is recovered to the locking position. For example, the hook 4 changes from an open state to a closed state.

Specifically, the electromagnet assembly 6 comprises an electromagnet, the electromagnet is arranged on the hook 4, a metal part is arranged on the part, close to the electromagnet, of the shell 3, one end of the reset piece 5 is connected with the shell 3, and the other end of the reset piece 5 is connected with the hook 4. When the electromagnet is electrified, the electromagnet is attracted with the metal piece on the shell 3, so that the clamping hook 4 is driven to rotate to enable the clamping hook 4 to be separated from the locking position, and meanwhile, the resetting component is elongated. Then the electromagnet is powered off, at the moment, attraction force does not exist between the electromagnet and the metal piece on the shell 3, so that the reset piece 5 resets, and the reset piece 5 drives the hook 4 to return to the locking position.

This application embodiment can make pothook 4 break away from locking position or make pothook 4 resume locking position through the circular telegram or the outage of control electromagnet assembly 6, is favorable to the adapting unit of this application to break away from locking position through pothook 4 or be in locking position through pothook 4 and realize with the dismantlement or the connection of other parts, and the user of being convenient for changes wearable equipment's part by oneself.

As shown in fig. 2 and 3, specifically, the first half hook 401 and the second half hook 402 are symmetrically arranged on the housing 3, a part of the first half hook 401 and a part of the second half hook 402 respectively extend out of the housing 3, and when the electromagnet assembly 6 is energized, the first half hook 401 and the second half hook 402 simultaneously rotate, so that the part of the first half hook 401 extending out of the housing 3 and the part of the second half hook 402 extending out of the housing 3 are away from each other, and a space is formed between the end of the first half hook 401 and the end of the second half hook 402, so that the locking portion 2 can enter between the first half hook 401 and the second half hook 402 from the above space. Under the condition that the electromagnet assembly 6 is powered off, the reset assembly enables the first half hook 401 and the second half hook 402 to rotate simultaneously, the end portion of the first half hook 401 extending out of the shell 3 is abutted to the end portion of the second half hook 402 extending out of the shell 3, and then a locking space is formed by enclosing the first half hook 401, the second half hook 402 and the shell 3, and at the moment, the locking portion 2 can be locked in the locking space.

That is, the reset member 5 is positioned between the first half hook 401 and the second half hook 402 and connects the first half hook 401 and the second half hook 402, further simplifying the structure. When the electromagnet assembly 6 is powered on, the first half hook 401 and the second half hook 402 stretch the resetting piece 5, and when the electromagnet assembly 6 is powered off, the resetting piece 5 resets to enable the first half hook 401 and the second half hook 402 to be close to each other to form a locking space. Simultaneously, the piece 5 one end that resets is connected towards second half-hook 402 one side with first half-hook 401, and the piece 5 other end that resets is connected towards first half-hook 401 one side with second half-hook 402, that is to say, the piece 5 that resets is located the space that presss from both sides between first half-hook 401 and the second half-hook 402, can avoid the piece 5 that resets to occupy extra space in the casing 3, provides the advantage for the miniaturization of casing 3.
