Figure 17 is a side view showing an additional device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

Referring to FIG. 17, in the additional device 700 (e.g., the additional device 202 of FIG. 2), the binding groove 321 corresponds to the insertion direction (e.g., the wearable device 201 of FIG. 2) of the wearable device (e.g., the wearable device 201 of FIG. 2). ID) may have a shape where the width increases or decreases partially. For example, the binding groove 321 has a first width W1 at the entrance portion, and the width may gradually decrease along the insertion direction ID of the wearable device 201. In one embodiment, the width of the binding groove 321 may decrease to a second width W2 that is smaller than the first width W1 as it approaches the outlet. For example, when coupling the wearable device 201 to the attachment device 700, a wearing frame (e.g., wearing frame 212 in Figure 2) is easily aligned with the entrance of the binding groove 321, and the wearing frame (212) can be stably coupled to the mounting frame 302 by moving along the insertion direction (ID).

In one embodiment, protrusion 829c may include a permanent magnet. For example, the protrusion 829c may react with a magnetic material provided on the wearing frame 212 to generate an attraction force, thereby maintaining the connector 829a coupled to the wearing frame 212.

According to one embodiment, in a structure where the connector 829 includes a plurality of contact terminals 829b, the protrusion 829c may have an asymmetric shape. In the illustrated embodiment, the upper surface of the protrusion 829c can be implemented as an asymmetrical shape by being disposed to be inclined by a specified angle IA with respect to the surface of the connector 829a. For example, when the connector 829a is coupled to the wearing frame 212, it may be aligned in a specified direction by the asymmetric shape of the protrusion 829c. Here, the “designated direction” may refer to the direction in which the contact terminal 829b(s) and the corresponding contact pad 819(s) are aligned to face each other. In one embodiment, when connector 829a is aligned or engaged with wearing frame 212 in a direction other than the designated direction, contact terminal(s) 829b(s) are substantially in contact with contact pad(s) 819.

For example, when the first part P1 of the protrusion 829c is magnetized to the S pole, the second part P2 of the protrusion 829c may be magnetized to the N pole. In one embodiment, when the first portion P1 of the protrusion 829c is magnetized to the N pole, the second portion P2 of the protrusion 829c may be magnetized to the S pole. In a structure in which the polarity of the protrusion 829c is arranged asymmetrically, the wearing frame 212 includes a permanent magnet corresponding to the polarity of the protrusion 829c, thereby attaching the connector 829a to the wearing frame ( 212). In a structure where the protrusion 829c and the wearing frame 212 include permanent magnets, a repulsive force occurs between the protrusion 829c and the wearing frame 212 when the connector 829a is not aligned in the specified direction. It can be. For example, when not aligned in a designated direction, the connector 829a cannot be substantially coupled to the wearing frame 212 due to a repulsive force between the protrusion 829c and the wearing frame 212.
