For example, a process, method, system, product or device comprising a series of steps or units is not limited to the steps or units listed, but optionally also includes steps or units that are not listed, or optionally also includes other steps or units inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.

[0040] Reference to "embodiments" herein means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in conjunction with the embodiments may be included in at least one embodiment of the present application. The appearance of the phrase in various locations in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an independent or alternative embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It is explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.

[0041] Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a smart ring device. In some examples, the smart ring device can be used as an independent device, and the smart ring itself performs data processing; that is, no data exchange is performed between the smart ring device and the external device. In other examples, the smart ring device can be configured to exchange data with the external device. The smart ring device and the external device can be wired, wirelessly connected, or a combination thereof.

[0042] See also Figures 1 to 13 The smart ring device may include an outer ring shell 2 , a flexible circuit board 51 , an electrical triggering part 55 , a controller 53 , a communication unit 54 , a battery 52 and an inner ring shell 1 .

[0043] The material of the inner ring shell 1 can be a metal material, such as iron, silver, copper and their alloys; in this case, the inner ring shell 1 can be provided with magnetic isolation and electrical isolation; of course, magnetic or electrical isolation can also be omitted. The material of the inner ring shell 1 can also be a non-metallic material, such as plastic. The inner ring shell 1 is an annular structure, such as a circular ring, an elliptical ring, etc.; for example, the inner ring 12 can be a circular ring, an elliptical ring, etc. The inner ring shell 1 can be an integrally formed ring, or it can be formed by splicing multiple arc sections.

[0044] The material of the outer ring shell 2 can be a metal material, such as iron, silver, copper and their alloys; in this case, the inner ring shell 1 can be magnetically isolated and electrically isolated; of course, magnetic or electrical isolation can also be omitted. The material of the outer ring shell 2 can also be a non-metallic material, such as plastic. The outer ring shell 2 is an annular structure, such as a circular ring, an elliptical ring, etc. The outer ring shell 2 can be an integrally formed ring, or a ring formed by splicing multiple arc segments.

[0045] The smart ring device can be worn on the user's fingers, arms, legs, etc. The inner ring shell 1 has a wearing hole 13 for the user to wear the smart ring device; for example, the inner ring 12 has a wearing hole 13. In some examples, the smart ring device can be worn on the arm, and the smart ring device can be called a smart bracelet. In other examples, the smart ring device is worn on the finger, and the smart ring device can be called a smart ring. Of course, the smart ring device can also be worn in other positions, which will not be repeated. This article takes the example of a smart ring device worn on a finger, and the smart ring device can be called a smart ring.

[0046] The outer ring shell 2 is sleeved on the outer side of the inner ring shell 1. In some examples, see Figure 7 and Fig.11 , the inner ring shell 1 may include an inner ring 12 and two first side plates 11; the two first side plates 11 are respectively located on both sides of the inner ring 12, and the inner ring 12 is detachably connected to at least one of the two first side plates 11; the outer ring shell 2 is located between the two first side plates 11. In this way, a detachable first side plate 11 is provided to facilitate the outer ring shell 2 to be mounted on the inner ring 12. The two first side plates 11 can prevent the outer ring shell 2 from moving along the axis of the inner ring 12 relative to the inner ring 12, thereby avoiding the axial shaking between the outer ring shell 2 and the inner ring 12. For example, the inner ring 12 and the two first side plates 11 can be detachably connected; for another example, one of the two first side plates 11 is detachably connected to the inner ring 12, and the other is fixedly connected to the inner ring 12, such as by welding. Among them, the detachable connection can be a bolt connection, a snap connection, etc. The first side plate 11 can be an annular structure, or other structures such as an arc shape. Of course, the inner ring shell 1 can only include the inner ring 12, and does not include the first side plate 11. The diameter of the inner ring 12 is 14 mm to 24 mm, for example, the diameter of the inner ring 12 is 14 mm, 15 mm, 16 mm, 17 mm, 18 mm, 19 mm, 20 mm, 21 mm, 22 mm, 23 mm, 24 mm, etc. The outer diameter circumference of the inner ring 12 is 45 mm to 70 mm. For example, the outer diameter circumference of the inner ring 12 is 45 mm, 50 mm, 55 mm, 60 mm, 65 mm, 70 mm, etc. This allows the smart ring device to be worn on a finger and used as a smart ring.

[0047] In some embodiments, the inner ring shell 1 is rotationally connected to the outer ring shell 2, that is, the inner ring shell 1 rotates concentrically with the outer ring shell 2. It should be noted that the outer ring shell 2 can rotate 360° relative to the inner ring shell 1, such as clockwise or counterclockwise, etc.; the outer ring shell 2 can rotate repeatedly within a certain range relative to the inner ring shell 1, such as repeatedly rotating between 0 and 90°. Among them, the wearing hole 13 can be designed according to the needs of the user, for example, the wearing hole 13 can be circular, elliptical, etc. The wearing hole 13 is adapted to the user's finger, for example, and when worn on the finger, the inner ring shell 1 will not rotate relative to the finger, so as to facilitate the rotation of the outer ring shell 2. However, when the wearing hole 13 is large, the inner ring shell 1 can be pressed to allow the outer ring shell 2 to rotate relative to the inner ring shell 1.

[0048] In some examples, a first connection portion is provided on the circumference of the inner ring shell 1, that is, a first connection portion is provided on the circumference of the outer circumferential surface of the inner ring shell 1; for example, a first connection portion is provided on the circumference of the outer circumferential surface of the inner ring 12. A second connection portion 222 is provided on the circumferential side of the outer ring shell 2 facing the inner ring shell 1, that is, a second connection portion 222 is provided on the inner circumferential surface of the outer ring shell 2. The first connection portion and the second connection portion 222 are aligned with each other, and a gap is maintained between the outer ring shell 2 and the inner ring shell 1 in the circumferential direction to allow the outer ring shell 2 to rotate relative to the inner ring shell 1 in the circumferential direction; the axial movement distance of the outer ring shell 2 relative to the inner ring shell 1 does not exceed a preset value.

[0049] In this embodiment, by utilizing the cooperation of the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion 222, the friction between the outer ring shell 2 and the inner ring shell 1 can be reduced, so that the outer ring shell 2 can rotate relative to the inner ring shell 1, thereby improving the playability of the smart ring device and achieving a decompression effect.

[0050] The preset value is less than or equal to 0.5 mm. For example, the preset value is 0.1 mm, 0.2 mm, 0.3 mm, 0.4 mm, 0.5 mm, etc. For example, a first connection portion is provided in the circumferential direction of the inner ring 12. Of course, the outer ring shell 2 and the inner ring shell 1 are interference-fitted to prevent the outer ring shell 2 and the inner ring shell 1 from rotating relative to each other. This article takes the rotation connection between the inner ring shell 1 and the outer ring shell 2 as an example for explanation.

[0051] One of the first connection part and the second connection part 222 is a protrusion, and the other is a slide groove; the protrusion slides in the slide groove. For example, the first connection part is a protrusion, and the second connection part 222 is a slide groove. For another example, the second connection part 222 is a slide groove, and the second connection part 222 is a protrusion. Among them, the protrusion only serves to facilitate sliding in the slide groove, and does not hinder the outer ring shell 2 from being mounted on the inner ring shell 1; for example, the protrusion can be a flexible structure, and when the outer ring shell 2 and the inner shell are installed, the protrusion is squeezed and extended, and after the installation is completed, the shape is restored; for another example, the protrusion can be a rigid structure. Of course, the first connection part and the second connection part 222 can also be a structure of a slide rail and a slider.

[0052] In some examples, the slide groove is an annular slide groove, and the protrusion is an arc-shaped slide rail or an annular slide rail. Figure 7 For example, the second connection portion is a protrusion, and the protrusion and the outer ring shell 2 are an integrally formed structure. In other examples, the slide groove includes multiple sections of grooves, and there is a boss between two adjacent sections of grooves; the protrusion is an arc-shaped slide rail; and the arc-shaped slide rail can slide over the boss. The boss is provided so that there is a sense of frustration when the outer ring shell 2 rotates relative to the inner ring shell 1.

[0053] The number of the first connection parts is at least one, and is the same as the number of the second connection parts 222, and is arranged one-to-one. For example, the number of the first connection parts is one; for another example, the number of the first connection parts is multiple (for example, two, three, four, etc.). Multiple first connection parts are arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the outer ring shell 2. In this way, the outer ring shell 2 can rotate more stably relative to the inner ring shell 1. In some examples, the number of the annular slide rails is two, and the two annular slide rails are arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the outer ring shell 2. In other embodiments, the first connection part and the second connection part 222 may also include magnets that attract or repel each other.

[0054] The smart ring device also includes a plurality of balls. The material of the balls can be metal, plastic, etc. A plurality of balls are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the first side plate 11, and the balls are arranged between the first side plate 11 and the outer ring shell 2. In this way, the use of balls can further prevent the outer ring shell 2 from shaking axially relative to the inner ring shell 1. The use of balls can reduce the friction between the outer ring shell 2 and the inner ring shell 1, so that the outer ring shell 2 can rotate relative to the inner ring shell 1. In some examples, both the first side plate 11 and the outer ring shell 2 have ball grooves, and the balls roll in the two ball grooves. The ball groove is an annular ball groove. In this way, the set ball groove can prevent the balls from moving radially. In other examples, one of the first side plate 11 and the outer ring shell 2 has a ball hole; the ball is arranged between the ball hole and the first side plate 11 or the other of the outer ring shell 2. In this way, the rolling and installation of the balls are facilitated. For example, the first side plate 11 has a ball hole, and the ball is rolled between the ball hole and the outer ring shell 2. For another example, the outer ring shell 2 has a ball hole, and the ball is rolled between the ball hole and the first side plate 11.

[0055] In some embodiments, the inner ring shell 1 and / or the outer ring shell 2 is provided with a cavity 23, and the electronic component 5 is located in the cavity 23. In some examples, the inner ring shell 1 has a cavity 23; for example, the inner ring 12 has a cavity 23. In other examples, see Figure 7, the outer ring shell 2 has a cavity 23. In other examples, both the inner ring shell 1 and the outer ring shell 2 have a cavity 23, in which case a portion of the electronic component 5 is located in the cavity 23 of the inner ring shell 1, and another portion is located in the cavity 23 of the outer ring shell 2. Of course, other components such as the bracket ring 6 can also be arranged in the cavity 23.

[0056] For example, see Figure 7 , the electronic component 5 may include a flexible circuit board 51 and a battery 52, the flexible circuit board 51 is arranged in the cavity 23, the battery 52 is arranged in the cavity 23, and the flexible circuit board is electrically connected to the battery 52. ​​In some examples, the smart ring device also includes a bracket ring 6; the bracket ring 6 is arranged in the outer ring shell 2, and the cavity 23 is divided into a first cavity 231 and a second cavity 232, the second cavity 232 is close to the inner ring shell 1 and away from the trigger area, and the first cavity 231 is close to the trigger area and away from the inner ring shell 1. The flexible circuit board 51 is arranged on the bracket ring 6 and is located in the first cavity 231, and the flexible circuit board 51 is arranged along the circumference of the outer ring shell 2. The battery 52 is arranged in the second cavity 232, and the battery 52 is arranged along the circumference of the outer ring shell 2.

[0057] Among them, the flexible circuit board 51 can be a ring-shaped structure or an arc-shaped structure. The battery 52 can be a secondary rechargeable battery, that is, the battery 52 is a rechargeable battery 52, such as a lithium-ion battery. Of course, the battery 52 can also be a disposable battery. The battery 52 can be a ring-shaped structure or an arc-shaped structure. In some examples, the battery 52 includes at least two (for example, two, or more) sub-batteries 521; at least two sub-batteries 521 can be spliced ​​into a ring-shaped structure, and the adjacent two sub-batteries 521 can be detachably connected. It is convenient to install the battery 52 between the convex ring 221 and the second annular side plate 224. At least two sub-batteries 521 can be connected in series, in parallel, or in mixed connection. For example, the sub-battery 521 can be a rechargeable lithium-ion battery. In other examples, the battery 52 is an integrally formed ring structure. Of course, the battery 52 can also be an arc-shaped structure, that is, the arc-shaped structure is a case in which the non-annular structure.

[0058] The cavity 23 can be a sealed cavity, thereby reducing the corrosion of the electronic component 5 by water vapor; in this case, the electronic component 5 can be sealed by itself or not sealed (i.e., exposed); the corresponding first cavity 231 is a first sealed cavity, and the second cavity 232 is a second sealed cavity. Of course, the cavity 23 can also be a non-sealed cavity, in which case the electronic component 5 is sealed by itself, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing the corrosion of the electronic component 5 by water vapor. However, this article takes the inner ring shell 1 having the cavity 23, and the cavity 23 is a sealed cavity, the first cavity 231 is a first sealed cavity, and the second cavity 232 is a second sealed cavity as an example for explanation.

[0059] See also Figure 7 to Figure 10The outer ring shell 2 may include a first ring shell 21 and a second ring shell 22, both of which are ring structures. The first ring shell 21 and the second ring shell 22 are sealed and connected to form a sealed cavity; the electronic component 5 is installed in the sealed cavity.

[0060] In this embodiment, the first annular shell 21 and the second annular shell 22 are provided to facilitate the installation of the electronic component 5 and can reduce the entry of water vapor into the sealed cavity. The external connection of the sealed cavity is physically isolated, so that the sealing of the sealed cavity is better, and the entry of water vapor into the sealed cavity is further reduced. Thereby, the risk of the electronic component 5 being corroded by water vapor is reduced, and the problem that the ring is not well sealed and easily causes the electronic component to fail due to water vapor corrosion is solved. Among them, the external connection is a type of hollow structure such as a hole or a channel connected to the cavity. For example, the external connection can be a mounting hole 211, and the mounting hole 211 can be sealed by using a physical button 3 and a connecting layer 4; for another example, after the wire of the electronic component 5 passes through the external connection, the remaining gap between the wire and the mounting hole 211 is sealed by using a sealant.

[0061] The smart ring device of this embodiment has good sealing performance. Therefore, the smart ring device can be used in rainy days, swimming pools and other places without worrying about rainwater entering the sealing cavity.

[0062] Exemplarily, the first annular housing 21 includes an annular outer plate 213 and a first annular side plate 212 connected in a cross (e.g., vertical) manner, and the annular outer plate 213 and the first annular side plate 212 are both annular structures. For example, the annular outer plate 213 and the first annular side plate 212 are an integrally formed structure. The second annular housing 22 includes an annular inner plate 223 and a second annular side plate 224 connected in a cross (e.g., vertical) manner; the annular inner plate 223 and the second annular side plate 224 are both annular structures. The annular outer plate 213 and the annular inner plate 223 are arranged opposite to each other in the radial direction, and the first annular side plate 212 and the second annular side plate 224 are arranged opposite to each other in the axial direction. Among them, the second annular side plate 224 is sealed and connected to the annular outer plate 213 by a first adhesive; the annular inner plate 223 has a convex ring 221, the first annular side plate 212 abuts against the outer side surface of the convex ring 221, and the first annular side plate 212 is sealed and connected to the convex ring 221 and the annular inner plate 223 by a second adhesive. In this way, the convex ring 221 increases the contact area between the first annular side plate 212 and the annular inner plate 223, so that there is more second adhesive between the first annular side plate 212 and the convex ring 221, thereby enhancing the connection ability and sealing effect between the first annular side plate 212 and the annular inner plate 223. The first adhesive is used to seal the second annular side plate 224 with the annular outer plate 213. The first adhesive can have an adhesive ability, such as a sealant, glue, etc. The second adhesive can have an adhesive ability, such as a sealant, glue, etc. The convex ring 221, the annular inner plate 223 and the second annular side plate 224 are all integrally formed structures.

[0063] In some examples, the convex ring 221 is disposed on the inner surface of the annular inner plate 223; there is a spacing d between the convex ring 221 and the first side edge of the annular inner plate 223, and the spacing d is equal to the thickness of the first annular side plate 212. The first side edge is the side of the annular inner plate 223 close to the first annular side plate 212. The first annular side plate 212 abuts against the inner surface of the annular inner plate 223 between the first side edge and the convex ring 221. In this way, the inner surface of the annular inner plate 223 plays a role in supporting the first annular side plate 212. The spacing is equal to the thickness of the first annular side plate 212, so that the first annular side plate 212 is flush with the side of the annular inner plate 223. It can be understood that the second adhesive is disposed on the inner surface of the annular inner plate 223 between the first annular side plate 212 and the first side edge and the convex ring 221, and between the first annular side plate 212 and the convex ring 221.

[0064] For some examples, see Figure 7 and Fig.12, the smart ring device also includes a bracket ring 6, which is a ring-shaped structure. The bracket ring 6 is arranged in the sealed cavity, and the bracket ring 6 divides the sealed cavity into a first sealed cavity and a second sealed cavity. The electronic component 5 may include a flexible circuit board 51 and a battery 52, and the flexible circuit board 51 and the battery 52 are electrically connected. The flexible circuit board 51 is arranged on the bracket ring 6 and arranged along the circumference of the bracket ring 6, and is located in the first sealed cavity; for example, the flexible circuit board 51 is attached to the bracket ring 6. The battery 52 is installed in the second sealed cavity and arranged along the circumference of the bracket ring 6. The axial width of the second sealed cavity is smaller than the axial width of the first sealed cavity. In this way, the bracket ring 6 can separate the flexible circuit board 51 and the battery 52, and play a role in supporting the flexible circuit board 51.

[0065] The support ring 6 is in contact with the second annular side plate 224 and is sealed with the convex ring 221. The second annular side plate 224, the support ring 6, the convex ring 221 and the portion of the annular inner plate 223 form a second sealed cavity. In this way, the sealed connection between the support ring 6 and the convex ring 221 makes the sealing effect of the battery 52 better, achieving a secondary sealing effect.

[0066] The bracket ring 6 includes a first bracket portion 61 and a second bracket portion 62 which are cross-connected; the first bracket portion 61 and the second bracket portion 62 can both be annular structures. For example, the first support portion and the second support portion are vertically connected, so that the cross-sections of the first support portion and the second support portion are L-shaped. The first bracket portion 61 abuts against the second annular side plate 224; for example, the second annular side plate 224 has a first annular groove, and the bracket ring 6 abuts against the first annular groove. The second bracket portion 62 is located on the side of the first bracket portion 61 close to the annular inner plate 223, and is sealed and connected to the convex ring 221. A threading hole is provided on the first bracket portion 61 to facilitate the wires between the flexible circuit board 51 and the battery 52 to pass through. The radial dimension of the battery 52 is larger than the radial dimension of the convex ring 221, so that the battery 52 can be clamped between the second annular side plate 224 and the convex ring 221; it is also convenient to take the battery 52. ​​The second support portion and the convex ring 221 can wrap the battery 52. ​​The second bracket portion 62 is flush with the side of the convex ring 221, so that it is convenient to cooperate with the first annular side plate 212.

[0067] The battery 52 is adapted to the first sealed cavity, thereby preventing the battery 52 from shaking in the first sealed cavity. For example, the battery 52 abuts against the first annular side plate 212, the annular inner plate 223, the convex ring 221 and the bracket ring 6, which can prevent the battery 52 from shaking in the second sealed cavity.

[0068] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Fig.13, the electronic component 5 may also include an electrical trigger part 55, a controller 53 and a communication unit 54. The battery 52 is electrically connected to the flexible circuit board 51, the electrical trigger part 55, the controller 53 and the communication unit 54. The electrical trigger part 55, the controller 53 and the communication unit 54 are all located in the cavity 23 (e.g., a sealed cavity), for example, the electrical trigger part 55, the controller 53 and the communication unit 54 are all located in the first sealed cavity. The electrical trigger part 55 is located on the side of the flexible circuit board 51 facing the trigger area, and the electrical trigger part 55 is used to generate a trigger signal. A trigger area is provided on the outer ring shell 2, and the trigger area is located on the side of the outer ring shell 2 away from the inner ring shell 1. The user moves in the trigger area, and the trigger area causes the electrical trigger part 55 to generate a trigger signal.

[0069] The controller 53 sends a control signal to the communication unit 54 according to the trigger signal, and controls the communication unit 54 to send a data signal corresponding to the control signal to the external device, and the external device implements the interactive function according to the data signal. The data signal can be configured to carry any type of data, such as image data (e.g., still images and / or full motion video, including 2D and 3D images), audio, multimedia, voice and / or any other type of data.

[0070] In this embodiment, since the inner ring shell 1 is rotatably connected to the outer ring shell 2, the playability of the smart ring device is improved, and a decompression effect can be achieved. When the outer ring shell 2 rotates relative to the inner ring shell 1, the relative position of the trigger area in the circumferential direction of the inner ring shell 1 can be changed, and the user can move in multiple trigger areas, so that the user can operate the smart ring device with one hand, thereby solving the problem of inconvenience in operating the ring with one hand.

[0071] Exemplarily, the trigger area can be a touch area, and the corresponding electrical trigger unit 55 can be a sensor. When the user touches the touch area, the touch area causes the detection value of the sensor to change, thereby sending a trigger signal. The sensor can be a capacitive sensor, an optical (infrared) sensor, a resistive touch sensor, or an ultrasonic touch sensor. The touch area can be a flexible touch area or a rigid touch area. It should be noted that the user can touch the touch area by different actions such as single-clicking, double-clicking, and long pressing for a certain time, and the touch area causes the electrical trigger unit 55 to generate a trigger signal. For example, the electrical trigger unit 55 is a capacitive sensor. After long pressing the touch area for a certain time, the capacitance value of the capacitive sensor (i.e., the above-mentioned detection value) changes, that is, reaches a preset value, so that the capacitive sensor sends a trigger signal. For another example, the electrical trigger unit 55 is a resistive sensor. After touching the touch area, the resistance value of the resistive sensor (i.e., the above-mentioned detection value) changes, that is, reaches a preset value, so that the resistive sensor sends a trigger signal.

[0072] In some examples, the trigger area includes a circumferential wall of the outer ring shell 2 itself; that is, the trigger area can be a touch area, and the touch area is an integral structure with the outer ring shell 2. The electrical trigger part 55 can include any one of a capacitive sensor, an optical sensor, a resistive touch sensor, or an ultrasonic touch sensor.

[0073] As another example, the trigger area is provided with a mounting hole 211; in this case, the trigger area can be understood as the mounting hole 211, or can be understood as the mounting hole 211 and a part of the wall of the outer ring shell 2. Accordingly, the electrical trigger part 55 can be as follows: Fig.14 The trigger switch, micro switch, etc. shown in the figure can be operated through the mounting hole 211 to turn the switch on or off to generate a trigger signal. The physical button 3 can be pressed to change the state of the switch, that is, when the physical button 3 is not touched, the physical button 3 will not automatically change the state of the trigger switch. For example, the physical button 3 and the trigger switch can be connected by an elastic member (such as a spring), or the physical button is a flexible structure, and the physical button 3 is directly connected to the trigger switch. See Fig.14 , a switch (such as a trigger switch) is disposed on the outer surface of the flexible circuit board. In addition, the battery 52 may be disposed in the second sealed cavity, see Fig.14 The battery 52 can also be arranged in a mounting cavity formed by bending the flexible circuit board 51, and the battery 52 and the flexible circuit board 51 are integrally mounted in the cavity.

The physical button 3 is configured to be able to move in the mounting hole 211 and physically contact the electrical trigger part 55, so that the electrical trigger part 55 generates a trigger signal. Among them, the physical button 3 can protrude from the outer surface of the outer ring shell 2 to facilitate user operation. The material of the physical button 3 can be silicone, plastic, etc. The physical button 3 is adapted to the mounting hole 211, so that the gap between the mounting hole 211 and the physical button is small, which can ensure the sealing, improve the waterproofness, improve the service life, and significantly improve the user experience.

[0075] The smart ring device also includes a connection layer 4, and the material of the connection layer 4 can be silicone, plastic, etc. The connection layer 4 is connected between two adjacent physical buttons 3, and the physical buttons 3 and the connection layer 4 are both elastic materials. The connection layer 4 and the physical button 3 are integrally formed. The physical button 3 protrudes from the mounting hole 211. The connection layer 4 is arranged in the cavity 23 and is located between the outer ring shell 2 (i.e., the annular outer plate 213 of the outer ring shell 2) and the flexible circuit board 51. The button is configured to be able to elastically move along the radial direction of the outer ring shell 2 in the mounting hole 211 and physically contact the electrical trigger part 55. The connection layer 4 can prevent the water vapor coming from the gap between the mounting hole 211 and the physical button 3 from directly contacting the flexible circuit board 51, thereby protecting the flexible circuit board 51, improving the sealing, waterproofness, and service life, and significantly improving the user experience. The connection layer 4 can be a ring-shaped structure. The physical button 3 is arranged on the side of the connection layer 4 away from the flexible circuit board 51. The physical button 3 may include a plurality of different shapes, such as a triangle, a quadrilateral, a polygon or a circle, etc., and each physical button 3 of a different shape may correspond to a function such as play, confirm page turning or return.

The number of trigger zones and electrical trigger parts 55 is at least one (for example, one, or more), and at least one trigger zone and at least one electrical trigger part 55 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence in the radial direction of the outer ring shell 2. For example, the number of trigger zones and electrical trigger parts 55 can be three, so that the smart ring device has more functions to facilitate interaction with external devices. Among them, multiple trigger zones are only located on half of the ring of the outer ring shell 2, and multiple trigger zones can also be distributed on the entire outer ring shell 2. Since the smart ring device can interact with external devices, the function of the electrical trigger part 55 can be customized or changed using external devices. In some examples, an identifier is provided on the surface of the trigger zone, such as a touch zone as an identifier, and another example is an identifier of the mounting hole 211. The identifier includes any one of a shape pattern, a shape button, a letter or a text.

Fig.15 The smart terminal includes an external device and the smart ring device in the above embodiment. The external device and the smart ring device are in communication connection.

[0091] The interactive method includes steps S100 to S300.

[0092] Step S100: The external device performs a first functional interaction according to a first data signal; the first data signal corresponds to a first trigger area.

[0093] The first data signal comes from the user's pressing operation on the first trigger area. It can be understood that pressing the first trigger area causes the first trigger part to generate a first trigger signal. The controller sends a first control signal to the communication unit according to the first trigger signal, and controls the communication unit to send a first data signal corresponding to the first control signal to the external device.

[0094] Step S200, rotating the outer ring shell.

[0095] Since the outer ring shell rotates relative to the inner ring shell 1, the first trigger area and the second trigger area rotate synchronously with the outer ring shell, thereby changing the positions of the first trigger area and the second trigger area. Specifically, after the user wears the smart ring device, the first trigger area can be a position that is convenient for the user to move; when the second trigger area rotates to the position of the first trigger area, it is convenient for the user to move in the second trigger area, and at this time, the first trigger area rotates to another position.

[0096] Step S300: the external device performs a second function interaction according to the second data signal; the first function interaction and the second function interaction; the second data signal corresponds to the second trigger area.

[0097] The second data signal comes from the user's pressing operation on the second trigger area, wherein the position of the first trigger area and the position of the second trigger area can be different positions on the circumference of the outer ring shell. It can be understood that pressing the second trigger area causes the second trigger part to generate a second trigger signal, and the controller sends a second control signal to the communication unit according to the second trigger signal, and controls the communication unit to send a second data signal corresponding to the second control signal to the external device.

[0098] Among them, the interaction method can refer to the relevant description of the above-mentioned smart ring device embodiment, which will not be repeated here.
