[0032] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0033] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, a watch provided in this embodiment includes a watch body, a crown 1 and a strap assembly, wherein the crown 1 is mounted on the watch body and can move relative to the watch body along a first direction under the action of an external force, the strap assembly includes two connecting parts 2 for connecting with the watch body, and the watch body includes:

[0034] A housing 3, wherein at least one of the two ends of the housing 3 along the second direction is provided with a through opening 31 for connecting with the corresponding connecting portion 2, and the crown 1 is provided on the housing 3 and can move relative to the housing 3 along the first direction under the action of an external force; wherein the first direction intersects with the second direction;

[0035] Rotating members 4 corresponding to the through openings 31 one by one, the rotating members 4 are rotatably disposed in the corresponding through openings 31, and can be drivingly connected with the corresponding connecting parts 2;

[0036] A transmission unit 5 is located in the housing 3, and the transmission unit 5 is connected to the crown 1 and is in transmission connection with each rotating member 4;

[0037] When the crown 1 is in the first position, each rotating member 4 is in a combined state with the corresponding connecting portion 2 ; when the crown 1 is in the second position, each rotating member 4 is separated from the corresponding connecting portion 2 .

[0038] The watch provided in this embodiment includes a watch body, a crown 1 and a strap assembly, wherein the strap assembly includes two connecting parts 2 for connecting with the watch body, and the watch body includes a housing 3, a rotating member 4 and a transmission unit 5. At least one of the two ends of the housing 3 along the second direction is provided with a through hole 31 for connecting with the corresponding connecting part 2; the rotating member 4 corresponds to the through hole 31 one by one, is rotatably arranged in the corresponding through hole 31, and can be transmission-connected with the corresponding connecting part 2. The transmission unit 5 is located in the housing 3, connected with the crown 1, and transmission-connected with each rotating member 4; when the crown 1 is in the first position, each rotating member 4 is in a combined state with the corresponding connecting part 2; when the crown 1 is in the second position, each rotating member 4 is separated from the corresponding connecting part 2, so that the watch provided in this embodiment only needs to realize the switching of the crown 1 from the first position to the second position, that is, the watch can be taken off from the wrist of the user, and the removal of the watch is more convenient.

[0039] The crown 1 is installed on the watch body. Specifically, the installation method of the crown 1 on the watch body can refer to the existing technology.

[0040] It should be noted that, when the crown 1 is in the first state (for example, the natural state) and no external force acts on the crown 1, the relative position of the crown 1 and the shell 3 is fixed. At this time, the crown 1 and the transmission unit 5 can work together to maintain the connection state between each rotating part 4 and the corresponding connecting part 2; when a force is applied to the crown 1 (specifically, a force away from the shell can be applied to the crown) to switch the crown 1 from the first position to the second position, the crown 1 acts on each rotating part 4 through the transmission unit 5, so that each rotating part 4 is separated from the corresponding connecting part 2.

[0041] At least one of the two ends of the shell 3 along the second direction is provided with a through opening 31 for connecting to the corresponding connecting part 2 in the strap assembly, that is, only one of the two ends of the shell 3 along the second direction may be provided with a through opening 31 for connecting to the corresponding connecting part 2 in the strap assembly (in this case, the connection between the end of the two ends of the shell 3 along the second direction without the through opening 31 and the corresponding connecting part 2 in the strap assembly can refer to the prior art), and the two ends of the shell 3 along the second direction may also be provided with through openings 31, and each through opening 31 is used to connect to a connecting part 2 in the strap assembly.

[0042] When only one of the two ends of the shell 3 along the second direction is provided with a through opening 31 for connecting with the corresponding connecting part 2 in the strap assembly, the rotating part 4 is also one and is rotatably arranged in the through opening 31; with the end of the two ends of the shell 3 along the second direction provided with the through opening 31 as the first end, and the other end of the two ends of the shell 3 along the second direction as the second end, when the crown 1 is in the first position, at the first end of the shell 3, the rotating part 4 and the corresponding connecting part 2 are in a combined state, and at the second end of the shell 3, the corresponding connecting part 2 of the strap assembly is connected to the shell 3; when the crown 1 is in the second position, at the second end of the shell 3, the corresponding connecting part 2 of the strap assembly is still connected to the shell 3, and at the first end of the shell 3, the rotating part 4 is separated from the corresponding connecting part 2, so that the watch can be removed from the user's wrist.

[0043] When both ends of the shell 3 along the second direction are provided with through openings 31 for connecting with the corresponding connecting parts 2 in the strap assembly, there are two rotating parts 4, and a rotating part 4 is rotatably arranged in each through opening 31, and the rotating parts 4 are all in transmission connection with the transmission unit 5 and the corresponding connecting part 2; when the crown 1 is in the first position, the two rotating parts 4 are in a combined state with the corresponding connecting part 2; when the crown 1 is in the second position, the two rotating parts 4 are separated from the corresponding connecting part 2, so that not only the watch can be removed from the user's wrist, but also the strap assembly can be disassembled from the watch body without removing the watch from the user's wrist in advance. The disassembly of the strap assembly is also more convenient, which is beneficial to save user time and improve user experience.

[0044] The specific configuration of the strap assembly may refer to the prior art, for example, the strap assembly may include a strap, each of the two ends of which is formed with the above-mentioned connecting portion 2; the strap assembly may also include two sub-straps, each of which has one end for connecting to another sub-strap, and the other end forming the above-mentioned connecting portion 2.

[0045] The first direction intersects with the second direction. In an optional implementation, the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.

[0046] Taking the example of a shell 3 having two ends along the second direction provided with openings 31 for connecting with the corresponding connecting parts 2 in the strap assembly, in an optional implementation, the transmission unit 5 includes a connecting rod assembly connected to the crown 1 and located in the shell 3, and the connecting rod assembly is transmission-connected to each rotating member 4, so that when the crown 1 is in the first position, each rotating member 4 is in a combined state with the corresponding connecting part 2; when the crown 1 is in the second position, each rotating member 4 is separated from the corresponding connecting part 2.

[0047] Exemplarily, the connecting rod assembly may include an active rod 51 located in the housing 3 and connected to the crown 1, and two driven rods 52 hinged to one end of the active rod 51 away from the crown 1. The two driven rods 52 are each connected to a rotating member 4 in a transmission manner to drive the corresponding rotating member 4 to rotate under the drive of the crown 1, thereby realizing the combination and separation of each rotating member 4 and the corresponding connecting part 2.

[0048] Further, in an optional implementation, the transmission unit 5 includes a slider 53 corresponding to the driven rod 52 one by one, and the slider 53 is slidably disposed in the corresponding through hole 31 and is located between the corresponding rotating member 4 and the driven rod 52;

[0049] One end of the slider 53 is hinged to the corresponding driven rod 52 away from one end of the other driven rod 52, and the other end of the slider 53 is transmission connected to the corresponding rotating member 4, so that the slider 53 drives each rotating member 4 to rotate under the drive of the active rod 51 and the driven rod 52, thereby realizing the combination and separation of each rotating member 4 and the corresponding connecting part 2.

[0050] In an optional implementation, Figure 5 As shown, the rotating member 4 includes a body and a connecting shaft 41, the body includes a first portion 42 and a second portion 43 arranged side by side along the second direction, the first portion 42 and the second portion 43 are connected to each other, and the first portion 42 is used for transmission connection with the corresponding connecting portion 2, and the second portion 43 is transmission connection with the corresponding slider 53;

[0051] The connecting shaft 41 is disposed at the connection between the first portion 42 and the second portion 43 , and extends in a direction perpendicular to the second direction and is rotatably disposed in the corresponding through opening 31 .

[0052] In an optional implementation, the connecting portion 2 of the strap assembly is provided with a first slot 21 for cooperating with the corresponding first portion 42, and the slider 53 has a second slot 531 for cooperating with the corresponding second portion 43;

[0053] When the crown 1 is in the first position, the first part 42 is engaged in the first slot 21 , and the second part 43 is engaged in the second slot 531 ; when the crown 1 is in the second position, the first part 42 is separated from the first slot 21 , and the second part 43 is engaged in the second slot 531 .

[0054] In an optional implementation, the rotating member 4 is located above the corresponding connecting portion 2 and the corresponding sliding block 53 , the first slot 21 is located on the upper surface of the corresponding connecting portion 2 , and the second slot 531 is located on the upper surface of the sliding block 53 .

[0055] In another optional implementation, Figure 5-7As shown, the rotating member 4 is located below the corresponding connecting portion 2 and the corresponding sliding block 53 , the first clamping groove 21 is located on the lower surface of the corresponding connecting portion 2 , and the second clamping groove 531 is located on the lower surface of the sliding block 53 .

[0056] When the body of the rotating member 4 is specifically arranged, in an optional implementation, a cross section of the body on a plane perpendicular to the second direction is arc-shaped or V-shaped.

[0057] For example, when the rotating member is located below the corresponding connecting portion and the slider, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 As shown, the bottom wall of each opening of the shell is provided with a limiting groove matching the shape of the corresponding rotating member, and the rotating member is arranged in the limiting groove, so that the limiting groove can play a guiding and limiting role during the rotation of the rotating member.

[0058] The following is a brief description of the process of taking a watch provided by this embodiment off a user's wrist and putting it on the user's wrist.

[0059] When the watch needs to be taken off from the user's wrist, the crown 1 is pulled along the first direction, so that each driven rod 52, driven by the active rod 51, pushes the corresponding slider 53 to move outward; the slider 53 moving outward pushes the corresponding rotating member 4 to rotate, so that the first portion 42 of the rotating member 4 is separated from the corresponding connecting portion 2 in the strap assembly, that is, the watch can be taken off from the user's wrist. Figure 6 That is, it is a schematic diagram when the first portion 42 of the rotating member 4 is disengaged from the corresponding connecting portion 2 in the strap assembly.

[0060] When the strap assembly needs to be installed on the watch body, the connecting portion 2 of the strap assembly is pushed into the corresponding opening 31 of the housing 3 until the rotating member 4 clamps the corresponding connecting portion 2 of the strap assembly, thus completing the installation and fixing of the strap assembly on the watch body. Figure 7 That is, it is a schematic diagram of the first portion 42 of the rotating member 4 combined with the corresponding connecting portion 2 in the strap assembly. The direction indicated by the unnumbered arrow in the figure represents the rotation direction of the rotating member during the process of switching the crown from the first position to the second position.

[0061] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Thus, if these modifications and variations of the present invention fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and their equivalents, the present invention is also intended to include these modifications and variations.
