Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve the attraction of the product by projecting a sensor storage part from the outer peripheral part of a register ring fitting groove and fitting a register ring in the register ring fitting groove. CONSTITUTION:A case middle 2 has a module storage part 2a, the ring-shaped register ring fitting groove 2b provided at the outer peripheral part of the module storage part 2a, and the sensor storage part 2c provided projecting from the outer peripheral part of the register ring fitting groove, the register ring 7 is fitted in the register ring fitting groove 2b, and a sensor is stored in the sensor storage part 2c. In this state, a pressure member 11 is arranged outside the sensor 6 and fitted with a screw 12 to compress a water-tight ring 6b to secure watertightness between the sensor 6 and case middle 2 and also fix the sensor 6 at the same time. Further, the attraction of the product is improved.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a sensor housing structure for a wristwatch with a sensor.

[Conventional technology]

In recent years, wristwatches have begun to play an important role as wrist information devices, and watches with sensors that detect pressure, temperature, etc. are housed in the wristwatch, and sensor-equipped watches are being made that display sensor information such as pressure and temperature. It has become to.

FIG. 10 shows an embodiment of a conventional sensor-equipped wristwatch shown in Utility Model Application Publication No. 1-136484, in which a sensor is housed on the side of a case body forming a watch case, and sensor information is obtained using the signal of the sensor. A cross-sectional view of a wristwatch with a sensor to be displayed;
11 is a top view of the sensor used in the sensor-equipped wristwatch, FIG. 12 is a side view of FIG. 11, and FIG. 13 is a top view of the sensor used in the sensor-equipped wristwatch.
The bottom view of the figure shows a state in which the flexible group +JiE40 has been removed.

31 is a watch case; 32 is a case body that forms the watch case 31 and has a module storage part 32a and a sensor storage part 32b;
3 is attached via a gasket 33a, and the module storage portion 32a of the case body 32 is formed on the lower surface of the glass 33.
A module 34 is housed in the module 34, and a back cover 35 is attached to the lower part of the module 34 via a waterproof ring 35a. On the side surface of the case body 32, a sensor housing portion 32b is formed by expanding the case body 32 from the upper surface 33b of the glass 33.
A sensor 36 is formed in the sensor housing portion 32b.
is housed, a protection plate 38 is placed on the outside of the sensor 36 via a waterproof ring 37, and a restraining member 3 is placed on the outside of the protection plate 38.
9 are arranged, and these protection plates 38 and restraining members 39 are attached with screws (not shown), thus forming a wristwatch with a sensor 30. Note that hands such as an hour hand, a minute hand, a second hand, a liquid crystal panel, etc. shown in Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 1-136484 are omitted and not shown.

The sensor 36 of the sensor wristwatch 30 has a waterproof ring 3 attached to the outer periphery of the sensor 36, as shown in FIGS. 11 and 12.
The receiver 7 is formed with a surface 36a, and the receiver of the waterproof ring 37 provided on the case body 32 is formed with a surface 32c.
A waterproof ring 37 is disposed so as to straddle both sides, and the waterproof ring 37 is compressed by the protective plate 38 and the two supports 36a and 32c, thereby ensuring waterproofness of the sensor storage portion 32b. Further, the insertion direction when the sensor 36 is stored is the electrode 36c provided on the lower surface 36b of the sensor 36,
The insertion direction of the sensor is determined by changing the shapes of 36 d, 36 e, and 36 f.

The electrodes 36c, 36d, 36e, 36f of the sensor 36 and the flexible board 40 are electrically connected by soldering or the like, and the flexible board 40 is screwed into the module 34 by screws 42 from above the mounting member 41. According to
The flexible substrate 40 and an electrode pattern of a circuit board (not shown) are electrically connected, and as a result, the sensor 36
and a circuit board (not shown) are electrically connected so that signals from the sensor 36 can be sent to the module 34.

Claims (2)

[Claims] (1) In a wristwatch with a sensor that stores a sensor in the side surface of a case body that forms a watch case and displays sensor information using a signal from the sensor, the case body includes a module storage part and an outer peripheral part of the module storage part. It has a ring-shaped register ring mounting groove provided in the register ring mounting groove and a sensor storage part protruding from the outer periphery of the register ring mounting groove, and the register ring is installed in the register ring mounting groove, and the sensor is installed in the sensor storage part. A sensor-equipped wristwatch characterized by storing. (2) The sensor-equipped wristwatch according to claim 1, wherein the sensor storage portion of the case body forming the watch case is formed of a separate member from the case body.
