Description

Smart watch with touch strap

The invention relates to a smart watch, and in particular to a smart watch with a touch band, which can provide an accurate and smooth touch operation experience.

In the past, it was possible to use a finger to slide on a smart phone or tablet panel. As wearable electronic products continue to grow, so does the need to operate on touch-sized touch screens.

Figure 1 is a schematic illustration of the operation of a conventional smart watch. Referring to FIG. 1, the touch screen 100 of the smart watch has a size of about 1.3 吋 to 1.5 吋 (ie, 33 mm to 38 mm), and the width of the finger 110 is about 15 mm. That is to say, when the finger 110 is operated on the touch screen 100 of the smart watch, the finger 110 almost fills more than half of the touch screen 100, so that the user cannot operate the smart watch. The screen of all the touch screens 100 can be seen.

Moreover, since the size of the finger 110 is relatively large, the touch screen 100 of the smart watch cannot provide good operational precision by using the finger 110. As the touch screen is more detailed, the menu is more delicate. In order to be able to perform good touch operations, many people will additionally carry a stylus to replace the finger. However, the extra stylus is not convenient for the user, and the extra stylus has the problem of being easily lost.

There is also a way to store the stylus in the watch body of the smart watch, however, Due to the limited size of the body, the size of the stylus is limited. If the stylus is too small, it is not easy to use the stylus to operate the touch screen. Furthermore, once the stylus stored in the watch body is lost, it will have an adverse effect on the overall appearance of the watch body.

In the current smart watch, there is no bad experience for the above various operations. Make improvements.

In view of this, the present invention provides a smart watch with a touch band that provides an accurate and smooth touch operation experience.

The invention provides a smart watch suitable for being worn on a user's hand. The smart watch includes: a watch body and a touch band. The body has a touch screen. The touch strap is connected to the watch body, and the touch strap has a touch structure. The touch structure includes: a fixed end connected to the touch band and located on a side close to the watch body; a touch end disposed on a side away from the watch body; and a strap body connecting the fixed end and the touch end; The touch terminal can be moved to the top of the touch screen.

The smart watch has a touch strap, and the user can directly move the touch end of the touch structure to the top of the touch screen to perform smooth and precise operation on the touch screen, thereby providing a good operation experience for the user. . When operating a smart watch, you can avoid the finger covering the touch screen; you don't need to carry the stylus extra; The touch strap is fixedly integrated into the watch body to carry out the overall design, so that the smart watch has a good appearance, and can solve the problem that the previous stylus is lost and the appearance of the smart watch is poor.

The above described features and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the following description.
