Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a watch input method, and particularly relates to a watch digital input method and a watch unbinding method. Background Art

[0002] Watches are standard equipment for sports enthusiasts, and the data they store is associated with each specific person. The current high-value smart watches are no longer completely dependent on mobile phones. They are not just accessories for mobile phones, but are increasingly becoming electronic consumer products that can be used independently. After leaving the factory, if the current smart watches need to be used normally, they must be activated by scanning the QR code after the watch is turned on with a mobile phone, and then the mobile phone downloads the corresponding APP so that the watch and the mobile phone can be used together. A separate watch cannot be used without scanning. After activation, the mobile phone forms a one-to-one binding relationship with the watch. After the general watch is connected to the mobile phone Bluetooth, the sports data or some other data measured by the watch can be transmitted to the watch. CN2016106275261 discloses a method for binding a bracelet to a mobile phone. After binding, unless the mobile phone is used to operate the unbinding, the unbinding operation cannot be performed on the mobile phone side. The applicant checked the watches produced by Apple, Huawei, and our company, and there was no place to unbind on the watch side. Therefore, although the watch can measure data without the watch after it is activated and bound to the first mobile phone, the watch can only save a small amount of data due to memory factors. The user can view this small amount of saved data on the watch, but once the "first mobile phone" is not unbound and the user flashes, resets, restores factory settings, etc., the mobile phone loses the binding relationship with the watch, and the watch cannot be bound to any other mobile phone again because it has not been unbound.

[0003] In summary, in order to achieve data confidentiality, if a watch has been bound to a mobile phone and the mobile phone is not unbound from the watch, the watch can only run as a single device and cannot be bound to any other mobile phone. Obviously, although this setting takes data confidentiality into consideration, it also sacrifices the reusability of expensive watches. It is based on this background that the present invention proposes a method for inputting numbers, and through this method of digital input, users can unbind on the watch side. Summary of the invention

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a method for inputting numbers on a watch and a method for unbinding. Through this method, the user can set a familiar password when the watch is bound to a mobile phone for the first time. When the mobile phone is lost or the mobile phone system is reset or a new mobile phone is replaced, the mobile phone side can be unbound directly by entering the password on the mobile phone side. In addition, a very special password input method is set, which makes it basically impossible for outside users to guess the password entered by the user.

[0005] The specific technical solutions of the present invention are as follows:

[0006] A method for inputting numbers on a watch, the watch having an outer ring that can rotate around a screen, the outer ring having 12 numbers 0-11 evenly marked in sequence; the outer ring and a main board of the watch are configured such that: the main board determines whether the outer ring rotates, and when the outer ring rotates and then stops rotating, the main board determines the o'clock position of at least one of the 12 numbers marked on the outer ring;

[0007] When a number needs to be input, the mainboard randomly generates a number B from 0 to 11 as the base point position;

[0008] Digital input step S1: After the outer shadow circle is rotated, it stops rotating, and if the rotation of the outer shadow circle cannot be detected within a time threshold T, the main board records the o'clock position C of any number A among at least one of the 12 numbers marked on the outer shadow circle whose o'clock position has been determined;

[0009] Calculate the middle number D = B-(CA);

[0010] Calculate the number E on the outer shadow circle aligned with the base point position B = D MOD (12);

[0011] When E is any number from 0 to 9, the digital input unit inputs the number E in the digital input box on the watch screen and jumps to the input of the next number.

[0012] Furthermore, the method further comprises a digital input confirmation step S2: implementing the above-mentioned S1, when E is 10, it indicates that all digital inputs are completed;

[0013] Furthermore, the method also includes returning to the last number input step S3: implementing the above S1, when E is 11, it means that the last number input is wrong, and the watch clears the last input number and requires re-entry.

[0014] Furthermore, after the digital input unit randomly generates the base point position B, the number B is displayed on the screen.

[0015] Furthermore, when number B is displayed on the screen, it disappears after 1-2 seconds.

[0016] Furthermore, when the next number is entered after each number is entered, all the previously entered numbers are changed into * symbols.

[0017] A method for unbinding a watch, the method comprising:

[0018] Setting an unbinding password in the watch;

[0019] Enter the unbinding process and ask for the unbinding password. Implement the above digital input method.

[0020] The watch judges the password. If the password is correct, the watch is unbound; if the password is wrong, all the numbers entered are cleared, and the base point position B is regenerated, requiring the password to be re-entered.

[0021] Furthermore, if the watch is unbound, a rebinding QR code will pop up.

[0022] Through the above technical solution, a method of digital input with randomly generated base point positions is set up, and the digital input method is combined with the base point positions, so that external users have no idea what numbers the users have input.

[0041] First embodiment:

[0042] As attached Figure 4 As shown, the smart watch 100 includes a watch middle frame 101; a watch outer ring module 200 is arranged in the watch middle frame 101; a watch lens 103 is arranged in the watch outer ring module 200; a display screen 301, a main board 401 and a battery 501 are arranged in sequence between the watch lens 103 and the watch bottom shell 601.

[0043] As attached Figure 1 As shown, the display screen 301 of the watch can display the functions of the smart watch, such as exercise, heart rate, weather, text messages, social information and calls, etc., and can also display an input box for input (such as the attached Figure 5 ). The watch may not be provided with buttons, but needs to be controlled in a different way. The present invention creatively provides a watch outer ring module 200 between the watch middle frame 101 and the display screen. Figure 1 In the embodiment, the middle frame 101, the display screen 301 and the lens 103 of the watch are relatively fixed, and the outer ring module 200 of the watch can rotate around the middle frame 101 of the watch. Figure 2 As shown, the watch outer shadow circle module 200 includes a watch outer shadow circle 211 and an entire coil module 220. The outer part of the watch outer shadow circle 211 is rotatably connected to the watch middle frame 101, and the inner part is rotatably connected to the display screen 301; the entire coil module 220 is arranged below the display screen 301 and fixedly connected to the mainboard 401. Such a structural design can make the watch outer shadow circle 211 of the watch outer shadow circle module 200 rotate around the watch middle frame 101, while the entire coil module 220 is relatively fixed to the watch middle frame 101, that is, the watch outer shadow circle 211 can rotate around the entire coil module 220. A first magnet 212 is arranged inside the watch outer shadow circle 211 and below the display screen. First preferably, the first magnet 212 is fixed on the inner wall of the watch outer shadow circle. Second preferably, the first magnet 212 is embedded in the inner wall of the watch outer shadow circle 211. As shown in the attached Figure 3The entire coil module 220 includes a fixed circle and 12 evenly arranged single coil modules 221, and the 12 coil modules 221 are evenly fixed on the fixed circle. The fixed circle is fixedly connected to the main board 401, and each single coil module 221 includes a conductive metal 222, a copper coil 223, a conductive wire 224 and a second magnet 225. The copper coil 223 is wound around the outside of the conductive metal 222, and the conductive wire 224 is respectively connected to the two ends of the copper coil 223, and then connected to the main board 401. Turning to the attached Figure 2 , attached Figure 2 Although 16 single coil modules are shown in the drawing, there are actually only 12 single coil modules in the present application. In the 12 single coil modules, the first magnet 212 is parallel to the conductive metal 222 of the single coil module 221 and does not intersect. When viewed from the direction of the watch lens 103 of the watch toward the watch bottom case 601 (i.e., the attached Figure 2 The length of the first magnet 212 or the length of the curved surface enables the first magnet 212 to face at most one of the conductive metals 222 (i.e., at the same time point, the first magnet enables at most only one single coil module to generate current). When the first magnet 212 faces one of the single coil modules 221, the conductive metal 222 and the copper coil 223 are between the first magnet 212 and the second magnet 225.

[0044] The above structural design enables a weak current to be generated in the single coil module 221 opposite to the first magnet 212 when the user rotates the outer ring 211 of the watch.

[0045] With the above structure, the method of using the structure to input digital data to a watch is described in detail below.

[0046] Record the position numbers of 12 single coil modules arranged in a circle and evenly fixed on the mainboard, and the position numbers are recorded as position numbers of 0-11 o'clock positions according to the 12 hour positions;

[0047] 12 digits are evenly marked on the surface of the outer shadow ring of the watch in the order of 0 to 11; a first magnet 212 is arranged on the inner surface of the outer shadow ring at a position corresponding to one of the digits A in the 12 digits. If A in this embodiment is 1, the first magnet is arranged inside the outer shadow ring at the position of the outer shadow ring 1. When the outer shadow ring of the watch located at the outer ring of the 12 single coil modules arranged in a circular shape is rotated, current can be generated in the single coil module opposite to the first magnet;

[0048] When a number needs to be input, the watch randomly generates a number B from 12 numbers such as 0-11 as the base point position, and displays the number B on the screen;

[0049] Digital input step S1:

[0050] When the outer ring of the watch is rotated in a fixed direction, and within the time threshold T after the last single coil module generates current, no other single coil module generates current, then the position number C of the single coil module is recorded. In this embodiment, go to the attached Figure 6 After the position of the last single coil module generating current, the position number C is 7 (7 o'clock position); because the watch cannot recognize the number on the outer shadow circle that is aligned with the cardinal point position B, we calculate through the position number C of the last single coil module generating current, the cardinal point position B and the number A where the first magnet is set:

[0051] Calculate the middle number D = B-(CA);

[0052] Calculate the number E = D MOD (12) on the outer shadow circle aligned with the base point position B.

[0053] When E is any number from 0 to 9, enter the number E in the number input box.

[0054] When entering password-like numbers, after entering each number, all the previously entered numbers will turn into * symbols.

[0055] Digital input confirmation step S2, implement the above S1, when E is 10, it means that all digital input is completed. If the input is a password-type number, the watch will judge the input number. If the password is correct, it will enter the next step of control. If the password is wrong, all the input numbers will be cleared, and the base point position B will be regenerated to require new numbers to be input.

[0056] Return to the previous number input step S3 and implement the above S1. When E is 11, it means that the previous number input is wrong. The watch clears the last input number and requires re-entry.

[0057] Sometimes, you may only need to enter one digit. Then, after the user enters the first digit, he only needs to rotate the outer ring of the watch so that E equals 10 when entering the next digit.

[0058] The implementation of the present invention is explained in more detail below.

[0059] A first magnet is arranged on the inner surface of the outer shadow circle at the position corresponding to the number 1 on the outer shadow circle of the watch, that is, A=1;

[0060] When a number needs to be input, the watch randomly generates a number B from 0 to 11 as the base point position. In this embodiment, B=2 (as shown in the attached figure). Figure 5 ), and displays the number 2 on the screen (when it is judged as a password input, the number 2 is only displayed on the screen for 5 seconds and then disappears. The user needs to remember this number);

[0061] As attached Figure 6 , you are required to enter the first number, implement the above S1, rotate the outer shadow circle, and determine the last single coil module that generates current. At this time, the position number of the single coil module is C=7 (Appendix Figure 6 In the figure, the first magnet is located at the outer shadow circle number 1, which is at 7 o'clock.

[0062] Calculate the middle number D = B-(CA)=2-(7-1)=-4;

[0063] Calculate the remainder of -4 relative to 12 and get the number on the outer shadow circle aligned with the base point position B:

[0064] E = -4 MOD (12) = 8.

[0065] At this time, 8 is between 1 and 9, and the watch fills in the number 8 in the first number input box.

[0066] As attached Figure 7 As shown, enter the second number at this time, implement the above S1, rotate the outer shadow circle, and determine the last single coil module that generates current. At this time, the position number of the single coil module is C=10 (see Appendix Figure 7 In the figure, the first magnet is located at the outer shadow circle number 1, which is at 10 o'clock.

[0067] Calculate the middle number D = B-(CA)=2-(10-1)=-7;

[0068] Calculate the remainder of -7 relative to 12 and get the number on the outer shadow circle aligned with the base point position B:

[0069] E= -7 MOD (12)=5.

[0070] At this time, 5 is between 1 and 9, and the watch fills in the number 5 in the first number input box.

[0071] As attached Figure 8 As shown, at this time, input the third number, implement the above S1, rotate the outer shadow circle, and determine the last single coil module that generates current. At this time, the position number of the single coil module is C=1 (see Appendix Figure 8 In the figure, the first magnet is located at the outer shadow circle number 1, which is the 1 o'clock direction).

[0072] Calculate the middle number D = B-(CA)=2-(1-1)=2;

[0073] Calculate the remainder of 0 with respect to 12 and get the number on the outer shadow circle aligned with the base point position B:

[0074] E= 2 MOD (12)=2.

[0075] At this time, 2 is between 1 and 9, and the watch enters the number 5 in the first number input box.

[0076] As attached Fig.12 As shown, the user is required to enter the fourth digit, but the user finds that the previous digit was entered incorrectly and wants to correct it. The method is:

[0077] Implement the above S1, rotate the outer shadow circle, and determine the last single coil module that generates current. At this time, the position number of the single coil module is C=4 (see Appendix Fig.12 In the figure, the first magnet is located at the outer shadow circle number 1, which is at 4 o'clock.

[0078] Calculate the middle number D = B-(CA)=2-(4-1)=-1;

[0079] Calculate the remainder of -1 relative to 12 to get the number on the outer shadow circle aligned with the base point position B:

[0080] E= -1 MOD (12)=11.

[0081] At this time, E=11, and the above-mentioned step S3 of returning to the previous number input is implemented to re-enter the third number.

[0082] Attached Figure 9-10 and the above Figure 6-8 The same, no further elaboration here.

[0083] When attached Fig.10 After entering all the numbers, confirm the input. Fig.11 As shown, the above S1 is implemented, the outer shadow circle is rotated, and the last single coil module generating current is determined. At this time, the position number of the single coil module is C=5 (see Appendix Fig.12 In the figure, the first magnet is located at the outer shadow circle number 1, which is at 4 o'clock.

[0084] Calculate the middle number D = B-(CA)=2-(5-1)=-2;

[0085] Calculate the remainder of -2 relative to 12 to get the number on the outer shadow circle aligned with the base point position B:

[0086] E= -2 MOD (12)=10.

[0087] At this time, E=10, indicating that all numbers have been entered. Example

[0088] On the basis of the first embodiment, all single coil modules are replaced with the first part of the capacitor, and the first magnet is replaced with the second part of the capacitor. When the second part of the capacitor arranged on the outer shadow circle rotates, it will be opposite to the first part of the capacitor on the main board respectively. When the two parts of the capacitor are opposite, there will be accommodation. The main board can determine which one of the capacitors is accommodated through the circuit, and thus can determine the position. Example

[0089] On the basis of the first embodiment, the first magnet is replaced with a switch of the circuit, and the single coil module is replaced with a disconnected circuit. When the switch set on the outer shadow ring rotates and touches the corresponding disconnected circuit, the circuit is connected. Therefore, the main board only needs to determine which circuit is energized to determine the o'clock position corresponding to the number of the switch position set on the outer shadow ring. Example

[0090] As an application of the above-mentioned method of inputting numbers, after the user has bound the watch, if the phone is lost and replaced with a new one, the phone is flashed and the software is re-downloaded, etc., which causes the phone to be unable to connect to the watch again, the user cannot use the watch to bind the phone again.

[0091] Therefore, we designed an unbinding method for the watch.

[0092] The watch has an outer ring that can rotate around a screen, and 12 numbers such as 0-11 are evenly marked on the outer ring in sequence; the outer ring and the main board of the watch are configured as follows: the main board can determine whether the outer ring is rotating, and when the outer ring rotates and then stops rotating, the main board can determine the o'clock position of at least one of the 12 numbers marked on the outer ring.

[0093] Set an unbinding password in the watch. The unbinding password can be set to one or more numbers. Then enter the unbinding process and enter the unbinding password.

[0094] When a number needs to be input, the mainboard randomly generates a number B from 0 to 11 as the base point position;

[0095] Digital input step S1: After the outer shadow circle is rotated, it stops rotating, and if the rotation of the outer shadow circle cannot be detected within a time threshold T, the main board records the o'clock position C of any number A among at least one of the 12 numbers marked on the outer shadow circle whose o'clock position has been determined;

[0096] Calculate the middle number D = B-(CA);

[0097] Calculate the number E on the outer shadow circle aligned with the base point position B = D MOD (12);

[0098] When E is any number from 0 to 9, the digital input unit inputs the number E in the digital input box on the watch screen and jumps to the input of the next number.

[0099] When E is 10, it means all numbers have been entered.

[0100] When E is 11, it indicates that the last number input is wrong, and the watch clears the last number input and requires re-entry.

[0101] When you enter the next number after entering a number, all the previously entered numbers will become * symbols.

[0102] After all the numbers are entered, the watch judges the password. If the password is correct, the watch is unbound and a re-binding QR code pops up. If the password is wrong, all the entered numbers are cleared, and the base point position B is regenerated, requiring the password to be re-entered.

[0103] Through the above technical solution, firstly, a method for inputting numbers through a watch is provided, and secondly, the method is applied to the input of passwords, which has very high convenience and security.

[0104] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
