[0030] The present invention provides a watch band connection structure for connecting a band body 100 and a housing 200 of a device body. In an embodiment of the present invention, Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the watchband connection structure includes a fixing component 300, a buckle component 400 and a trigger member 500; the fixing component 300 is fixedly connected to the strap body 100; the buckle component 400 includes two clamping components 410 arranged opposite to each other, and the two clamping components 410 are movably connected to the fixing component 300; an elastic component 420 is elastically clamped between the two clamping components 410, so that the two clamping components 410 are clamped and fixed to the shell 200; the trigger member 500 is slidably connected to the fixing component 300, and moves toward or away from the clamping components 410 to detach from the shell 200.

[0031] The strap connection structure is used to connect the strap body 100 and the shell 200 of the device body. The fixing component 300 is fixedly connected to the strap body 100. The buckle component 400 has two relatively arranged clips 410. The two clips 410 are movably connected to the fixing component 300, so that the two clips 410 can be movably connected relative to the strap body 100; an elastic member 420 is elastically clamped between the two clips 410, and the elastic member 420 will give opposite forces to the two clips 410, so that the two clips 410 are subjected to opposite pulling forces or backward thrusts, so that the two clips 410 retract inward or extend outward to be clipped and fixed with the shell 200, thereby realizing the fixed installation function of the strap body 100 and the shell 200.

[0032] The strap connection structure also includes a trigger member 500, which is slidably connected to the fixed component 300 and drivingly connected to the snap-on component 410. The trigger member 500 is triggered so that the trigger member 500 slides relative to the fixed component 300 to drive the two snap-on components 410 to move toward each other or away from each other to disengage from the shell 200, thereby disengaging the snap-on component 410 from the shell 200, thereby realizing the disassembly function of the strap body 100 and the shell 200.

[0033] It is understandable that the state in which the elastic member 420 is elastically clamped between the two clamping members 410 can be determined according to the actual situation:

[0034] Optionally, the elastic member 420 remains in a compressed state, at which time the two snap-fitting members 410 are always pushed outward so that the two snap-fitting members 410 extend from both sides to the shell 200 to be snap-fitted and fixed to the shell 200, thereby realizing the function of snap-fitting the belt body 100 and the shell 200; based on this embodiment, when the trigger member 500 is triggered to move, it will drive the two snap-fitting members 410 to move toward each other, thereby disengaging the two snap-fitting members 410 from the shell 200, thereby disconnecting the snap-fitting members 410 from the shell 200, thereby realizing the function of disassembling the belt body 100 and the shell 200.

[0035] Optionally, the elastic member 420 remains in a stretched state, and the two snap-fitting members 410 are always subjected to an inward pulling force, so that the two snap-fitting members 410 retract toward each other to snap into engagement with the shell 200. Based on this embodiment, when the trigger member 500 is triggered to move, it drives the two snap-fitting members 410 to move in opposite directions, so as to detach the two snap-fitting members 410 from the shell 200, thereby realizing the disassembly and assembly function of the belt body 100 and the shell 200.

[0036] In actual application, the trigger member 500 is slidingly connected to the fixed component 300, and the trigger member 500 is triggered to move to drive the clamping member 410 to move. Optionally, the trigger member 500 can be a button structure, and the button can be in a triggered state when it is pressed, bent or rotated.

[0037] The technical solution of the present invention sets a fixing component 300 fixedly connected with the belt body 100, and the buckle component 400 is provided with two clips 410 movably connected with the fixing component 300, and an elastic component 420 is elastically clamped between the two clips 410, and the elastic component 420 will generate opposite pulling forces or opposite pushing forces on the two clips 410, so that the two clips 410 are respectively clipped and fixed with the shell 200; at the same time, the trigger component 500 is slidingly connected with the fixing component 300 and is drivingly connected with the clips 410. When the trigger 500 is triggered to move, the two clips 410 are driven to move toward each other or away from each other to disengage from the shell 200, thereby realizing the disassembly and assembly function of the belt body 100 and the shell 200, which is easy to operate and improves the user experience.

[0038] Further, refer to Figures 1 to 6 The trigger member 500 is provided with a first guide slope 510, and the clamping member 410 is provided with a second guide slope 411, and the first guide slope 510 abuts against the second guide slope 411. The first guide slope 510 abuts against the second guide slope 411 to achieve the reversing function of the transmission. When the trigger member 500 moves, the two clamping members 410 are driven to move toward each other through the abutting reversing effect of the first guide slope 510 and the second guide slope 411, so as to be separated from the housing 200, thereby achieving the disassembly function of the belt body 100 and the housing 200.

[0039] It can be understood that first guide slopes 510 are provided on opposite sides of the trigger member 500 to respectively abut against second guide slopes 411 on the two clamping members 410 , so that the two clamping members 410 can be driven to move simultaneously only by triggering the trigger member 500 .

[0040] In actual application, the trigger member 500 may be slid along the thickness direction of the belt body 100 , and the two clamping members 410 may be moved along the width direction of the belt body 100 .

[0041] Further, refer to Figures 1 to 6The fixing assembly 300 includes a first bracket 310 and a second bracket 320 fixedly connected to the belt body 100, the first bracket 310 and the second bracket 320 are fixedly connected, the first bracket 310 and the second bracket 320 are enclosed to form a receiving cavity, the trigger member 500 and the clamping member 410 are both arranged in the receiving cavity, and the receiving cavity has two first openings 311 arranged opposite to each other for the clamping member 410 to pass through. The first bracket 310 is fixedly connected to the belt body 100, and the second bracket 320 is fixedly connected to the first bracket 310, so that the receiving cavity enclosed by the first bracket 310 and the second bracket 320 is fixed relative to the belt body 100, and the trigger member 500 and the clamping member 410 are both arranged in the receiving cavity, so that the driving connection structure between the trigger member 500 and the clamping member 410 is located in the receiving cavity, so as to achieve a compact structure and a reduced volume effect.

[0042] The clamping member 410 is movably connected to the fixing assembly 300. Under the action of the elastic member 420, the two clamping members 410 extend from the first opening 311 of the accommodating cavity to be clamped with the shell 200. When the trigger member 500 is triggered, it drives the clamping members 410 to move toward each other so that they can retract from the first opening 311 and thus be detached from the shell 200.

[0043] In an embodiment of the present invention, the first opening 311 is located on the first bracket 310 .

[0044] Further, refer to Figures 1 to 6 The second bracket 320 has two relatively spaced inserting parts 321, a second opening 322 for the triggering member 500 to pass through is formed between the two inserting parts 321, and the second opening 322 connects the accommodating cavity with the outside; the triggering member 500 is provided with a card slot 520 corresponding to the inserting part 321, and the inserting part 321 is inserted in the card slot 520; and in the thickness direction of the belt body 100, the inserting part 321 and the card slot 520 are relatively slidably arranged. The second bracket 320 includes two relatively spaced inserting parts 321, a second opening 322 formed between the two inserting parts 321, and the second opening 322 connects the accommodating cavity with the outside, so that a part of the triggering member 500 is located in the accommodating cavity and a part is located outside the accommodating cavity, so that the user can trigger the triggering member 500, so that the triggering member 500 can slide relative to the second opening 322.

[0045] The trigger member 500 has a card slot 520, which is used to insert the card insertion portion 321, so as to realize the installation of the trigger member 500 and prevent the trigger member 500 from falling out of the accommodating cavity. The card insertion portion 321 is inserted into the card slot 520. Since the trigger member 500 needs to slide relative to the second bracket 320 along the thickness direction of the belt body 100, the slot width dimension of the card slot 520 in the thickness direction of the belt body 100 is greater than the thickness dimension of the card insertion portion 321.

[0046] Further, refer to Figures 3 to 6 The trigger member 500 is provided with a guide groove 530, the first bracket 310 is provided with a guide column 312, the guide column 312 is arranged in the guide groove 530, the extension direction of the guide groove 530 is consistent with the thickness direction of the belt body 100; the guide groove 530 slides relative to the guide column 312. The guide groove 530 and the guide column 312 cooperate with each other to play a guiding role. When the trigger member 500 moves, the guide groove 530 and the guide column 312 slide relative to each other, so that the trigger member 500 is more stable during the movement.

[0047] In actual application, the specific structure of the guide column 312 and the guide groove 530 can be determined according to the actual situation, as long as the extension direction of the guide column 312 and the guide groove 530 is consistent with the movement direction of the trigger member 500. In one embodiment of the present invention, the guide column 312 is a T-shaped structure, and the guide groove 530 is a T-shaped groove structure, so that the movement process of the trigger member 500 is more stable.

[0048] Further, refer to Figures 3 to 6 , the two clamping parts 410 are provided with positioning posts 412 on the sides facing each other, the two positioning posts 412 are arranged opposite to each other, and the two ends of the elastic member 420 are respectively sleeved on the two positioning posts 412. The two clamping parts 410 are provided with positioning posts 412 on the sides facing each other, the two positioning posts 412 are arranged opposite to each other, and the elastic member 420 is sleeved on the two positioning posts 412. The two positioning posts 412 play the role of installing the elastic member 420 and also play the role of guiding the clamping part 410 when it moves, so that the elastic member 420 is more stable when it is elastically deformed to drive the clamping part 410 to move. In actual application, the elastic member 420 can be selected as a spring.

[0049] In one embodiment of the present invention, referring to Figures 3 to 6The housing 200 is provided with two oppositely arranged buckle grooves 210 along the width direction of the belt body 100, and the two snap-fitting members 410 move toward or away from each other to be respectively engaged with or disengaged from the buckle grooves 210. Two buckle grooves 210 are provided in the housing 200, so that the two snap-fitting members 410 are respectively engaged with the two buckle grooves 210, thereby making the installation of the belt body 100 and the housing 200 more stable. The two buckle grooves 210 are arranged oppositely in the width direction of the belt body 100, so that the belt body 100 and the housing 200 are subjected to more balanced forces during the disassembly process, and the disassembly process is more stable.

[0050] The present invention also provides a wearable device, which includes a band 100, a device body and a strap connection structure. The specific structure of the strap connection structure refers to the above embodiment. Since the wearable device adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it at least has all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here. Among them, the strap connection structure is connected between the band 100 and the housing 200 of the device body.
