Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of smart wearables, and in particular to a wearable device that combines a watch and headphones. Background Technology

[0002] The emergence of wireless earphones has met users' needs for listening to music and making phone calls during exercise. However, when not in use, they need to be placed in a storage case, which creates a burden for users to carry and makes them easy to lose, resulting in a poor user experience. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention provides a wearable device combining a watch and headphones, which is convenient to carry and use. The technical solution adopted by this invention is as follows:

[0004] A watch, comprising:

[0005] The watch body has a receiving cavity on its side for holding an earphone; a bridge is located on the side of the watch body and corresponds to the receiving cavity, forming an enclosed space that can be opened or closed; in the open state, the earphone can be removed from the receiving cavity or placed into the receiving cavity; in the closed state, the bridge fits and fixes the earphone in the receiving cavity or is fixed to the watch body.

[0006] This invention features a simple and compact structure, allowing the earphones to be stored inside a watch when not in use. This eliminates the need for a dedicated storage case or constant wearing around the neck or ears, reducing the burden on the user and effectively preventing loss. The charging connection point can be located within the storage cavity, allowing the earphones to be charged via the watch while stored, extending their usage time and further enhancing user convenience.

[0007] In some embodiments, the number of the protective bridge is one, the number of the receiving cavity is two, and one protective bridge corresponds to two receiving cavities;

[0008] The two receiving cavities are located on the same side of the watch body, and the two ends of the bridge span the two receiving cavities and are movably connected to the side of the watch body.

[0009] In some embodiments, the bridge corresponds one-to-one with the receiving cavity, and the two ends of the bridge span across the corresponding receiving cavity and are movably connected to the side of the watch body.

[0010] The number of earphones required can be configured with different accommodating cavities. Each accommodating cavity can be set to correspond one-to-one with an earphone, so that removing one earphone will not affect the other earphones, thus meeting different user needs.

[0011] In some embodiments, the number of the receiving cavity and the protective bridge is one or two.

[0012] In some embodiments, the bridge includes a hinged end and a locking end, the hinged end being hinged to the watch body.

[0013] The side of the watch body is provided with a latch that matches the locking end, so that the locking end is locked and connected to the watch body through the latch;

[0014] When in the open state, the engaging end separates from the latch, allowing the guard bridge to rotate around the hinge end.

[0015] In some embodiments, both ends of the bridge are connected to the side of the watch body via a first rotating hinge, so that the enclosed space opens or closes when the bridge rotates.

[0016] In some embodiments, a locking bracket is provided on the engaging end, the locking bracket is movably connected to the engaging end via a second rotary hinge, and the first end of the locking bracket matches the latch. A limit block is provided on one side of the engaging end relative to the second end of the locking bracket, and a first spring is provided between the second end of the locking bracket and the limit block.

[0017] When in the open state, press the second end of the locking bracket to disengage the first end of the locking bracket from the latch.

[0018] In some embodiments, a sealing ring is provided within the receiving cavity, and the sealing ring is press-fitted with the earphone for a seal. When the earphone is placed in the receiving cavity of the watch body, the press-fit sealing ring on the receiving cavity enables the earphone to be waterproof when placed inside.

[0019] In some embodiments, a second spring is provided at the bottom of the receiving cavity, and a protective spring block is provided on the side of the second spring near the opening of the receiving cavity. A limiting part is provided on the side wall of the receiving cavity, and the limiting part is located on the side near the opening of the receiving cavity. When the earphone is removed from the receiving cavity, the protective spring block moves towards the side near the opening of the receiving cavity under the elastic force of the second spring and stops when it contacts the limiting part. The second spring is a conical spring.

[0020] By incorporating a protective spring and a protective block, the protective spring will shift to the vicinity of the receiving cavity opening after the earphone is removed, preventing dust and sand particles from entering the receiving cavity and preventing debris from damaging the watch and earphone.

[0021] On the other hand, the present invention provides a wearable device combining headphones and a watch, including the watch described above and headphones placed inside the watch.

[0022] The wearable device combining a watch and headphones provided by this invention has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0023] 1. The present invention provides a wearable device combining a watch and earphones, which has a simple and compact structure. When not in use, the earphones can be stored inside the watch, eliminating the need for a special storage box or to keep them hanging around the neck or on the ears. This reduces the burden on users, effectively prevents the earphones from being lost, and makes it convenient for users to carry and use.

[0024] 2. The present invention provides a wearable device that combines a watch and headphones. The number of earphones required can be configured with a receiving cavity. The receiving cavity can be set one-to-one with the earphones. When one earphone is taken out, it will not affect the other earphones, thus meeting the different needs of users.

[0025] 3. The present invention provides a wearable device that combines a watch and headphones, which can be configured to adjust the position of the receiving cavity and the opening method of the bridge according to the user's usage habits, thereby enhancing the user experience;

[0026] 4. The present invention provides a wearable device combining a watch and headphones, which can be equipped with a charging connection point in the housing cavity. When the headphones are housed in the housing cavity, they can be charged by the watch, thereby increasing the usage time of the headphones and making them more convenient for users.

[0027] 5. The present invention provides a wearable device combining a watch and headphones. When the headphones are placed in the receiving cavity of the watch body, a waterproof function can be achieved when the headphones are placed in the receiving cavity by setting an interference fit sealing ring on the receiving cavity.

[0028] 6. The present invention provides a wearable device combining a watch and headphones.

[0053] In one embodiment, reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 The present invention provides a watch, comprising:

[0054] The watch body 1 has a receiving cavity 3 on its side for holding the earphone 2; the watch body 1 has a bridge 4 on its side corresponding to the receiving cavity 3, and the bridge 4 and the receiving cavity 3 form an enclosed space that can be opened or closed; in the open state, the earphone 2 can be taken out from the receiving cavity 3 or can be put into the receiving cavity 3; in the closed state, the bridge 4 fits and fixes the earphone 2 in the receiving cavity 3 or fixes the bridge 4 to the watch body 1.

[0055] In this embodiment, by providing a housing 3 and a protective bridge 4 on the side of the watch, the earphone 2 can be accommodated and fixed to the side of the watch. (Reference) Figure 3 When earphone 2 is needed, open the bridge 4 and remove earphone 2; when earphone 2 is not needed, place earphone 2 in the receiving cavity 3 and close the bridge 4 to secure earphone 2. The size of the receiving cavity 3 can be designed according to the specific size of earphone 2 and watch, and the internal structure of watch. The receiving cavity 3 can be deep or shallow, large or small. The position of the receiving cavity 3 can be set according to the shape and structure of watch. Preferably, when the watch is worn on the left wrist, the receiving cavity 3 can be located on the right, lower, or upper side of the watch; preferably, when the watch is worn on the right wrist, the receiving cavity 3 can be located on the left, lower, or upper side of the watch; more preferably, a charging connection point can be provided in the receiving cavity 3 so that earphone 2 can be charged when placed in the receiving cavity 3; even more preferably, a storage sensor is provided in the receiving cavity 3 to sense whether earphone 2 is placed in the receiving cavity 3; Reference Figure 4 The bridge 4 is set according to the position of the receiving cavity 3 to fix the exposed part of the earphone and prevent the earphone from falling off.

[0056] The present invention has a simple and compact structure, which allows the earphone 2 to be stored in the watch when not in use, without the need for a special storage box or to be worn on the ears all the time. This reduces the burden on users, effectively prevents the earphone 2 from being lost, and makes it convenient for users to carry and use.

[0057] In one embodiment, reference Figures 1 to 4 There is one protective bridge 4 and two receiving cavities 3, with one protective bridge 4 corresponding to two receiving cavities 3;

[0058] The two receiving cavities 3 are located on the same side of the watch body 1, and the two ends of the bridge 4 cross the two receiving cavities 3 and are movably connected to the side of the watch body 1.

[0059] In this embodiment, one protective bridge 4 corresponds to two receiving cavities 3. Preferably, the two receiving cavities 3 are arranged adjacently to save space. When the earphone 2 is placed in the receiving cavity 3, the middle end of the protective bridge 4 can fit and press against the exposed end of the earphone 2 to prevent the earphone 2 from falling off. More preferably, the two receiving cavities 3 are not separated by a partition and can be combined into one receiving cavity 3, further saving space. (Reference) Figure 4The receiving cavity 3 and the bridge guard 4 can be located on the right side of the watch, or on the left side, the upper side, the lower side, or other positions. The present invention does not limit the position of the receiving cavity 3 and the bridge guard 4.

[0060] In one embodiment, reference Figures 5 to 7 The bridge 4 corresponds one-to-one with the receiving cavity 3, and the two ends of the bridge 4 cross the corresponding receiving cavity 3 and are movably connected to the side of the watch body 1.

[0061] In this embodiment, one protective bridge 4 corresponds to one receiving cavity 3, as shown in the reference. Figure 5 , Figure 6 Preferably, there are two protective bridges 4 and two receiving cavities 3, with each earphone 2 corresponding to one protective bridge 4 and one receiving cavity 3. When one earphone 2 is removed, only the corresponding protective bridge 4 needs to be opened, without affecting other earphones or the protective bridge. (Reference) Figures 5 to 7 Each receiving cavity 3 and the bridge guard 4 can be located on the same side of the watch or they can be located separately. The present invention does not restrict the positions of the receiving cavities 3 and the bridge guard 4. Preferably, two bridge guards 4 and two receiving cavities 3 are provided, and both are located on the same side of the watch; see reference. Figure 5 , Figure 6 More preferably, the hinge ends 41 of the two guard bridges 4 are arranged adjacent to each other to save space; even more preferably, the two guard bridges 4 share a single hinge end 41 to further save space.

[0062] In one embodiment, reference Figures 5 to 7 The number of accommodating cavities 3 and the number of protective bridges 4 are one or two.

[0063] In this embodiment, the receiving cavity 3 and the bridge guard 4 can be located on the left, right, top, bottom or other directions of the watch. The present invention does not limit the position of the receiving cavity 3 and the bridge guard 4.

[0064] In one embodiment, reference Figures 8 to 10 The bridge guard 4 includes a hinge end 41 and a locking end 42. The hinge end 41 is hinged to the watch body 1. The side of the watch body 1 is provided with a latch 11 that matches the locking end 42, so that the locking end 42 is locked to the watch body 1 through the latch 11. When in the open state, the locking end 42 is separated from the latch 11, so that the bridge guard 4 can rotate around the hinge end 41.

[0065] In this embodiment, the bridge guard 4 is connected to the watch body 1 via a hinge end 41, and the bridge guard 4 can rotate around the hinge end 41. When the engaging end 42 of the bridge guard 4 disengages from the latch 11 on the watch body 1, the bridge guard 4 is rotated around the hinge end 41. After rotating to a certain extent, the earphone 2 can be removed from or placed into the receiving cavity 3. Then, the bridge guard 4 is fastened back on, so that the engaging end 42 of the bridge guard 4 engages with the latch 11 on the watch body 1.

[0066] In one embodiment, reference Figure 11 , Figure 12 Both ends of the bridge guard 4 are connected to the side of the watch body 1 via the first rotating hinge 5, so that the enclosed space opens or closes when the bridge guard 4 rotates.

[0067] In this embodiment, both ends of the bridge guard 4 are hinged to the watch body 1. The bridge guard 4 is opened and closed by rotating around the first rotating hinges 5 at both ends, thereby enabling the removal or placement of the earphone 2. In this embodiment, the corresponding number and position of the bridge guard 4 and the receiving cavity 3 can be referred to the previous embodiment description, and will not be repeated here. Preferably, a magnetic attraction device can be provided on the part of the bridge guard 4 that fits against the earphone 2, and a magnetic attraction device can also be provided on the part of the earphone 2 that fits against the bridge guard 4, further ensuring the earphone 2 is fixed.

[0068] In one embodiment, reference Figures 8 to 10 A locking bracket 421 is provided on the engaging end 42. The locking bracket 421 is movably connected to the engaging end 42 via a second rotary hinge 6. The first end 4211 of the locking bracket 421 matches the latch 11. A limit block 422 is provided on one side of the engaging end 42 relative to the second end 4212 of the locking bracket 421. A first spring 423 is provided between the second end 4212 of the locking bracket 421 and the limit block 422.

[0069] When in the open state, press the second end 4212 of the locking bracket 421 to disengage the first end 4211 of the locking bracket 421 from the latch 11.

[0070] In this embodiment, the first spring 423 is placed in the space between the limiting block 422 and the second end 4212 of the locking bracket 421. Preferably, both the limiting block 422 and the second end 4212 have grooves for placing the first spring 423, with both ends of the first spring 423 placed in the grooves respectively. When the second end 4212 of the locking bracket 421 is pressed, the locking bracket 421 rotates around the second rotating hinge 6, thereby unlocking the first end 4211 of the locking bracket 421 from the latch 11, thus completing the opening action of the bridge guard 4. When the second end 4212 of the locking bracket 421 is not pressed, the second end 4212 returns to its original position under the elastic force of the first spring 423.

[0071] In this embodiment, when the first spring 423 and the second rotating hinge 6 are fixed in relative positions, the locking force of the second end 4211 of the locking bracket 421 and the latch 11 is determined by the distance between the point of force resultant when the second end 4211 and the latch 11 are engaged and the second rotating hinge 6. The closer the point of force resultant is to the second rotating hinge 6, the greater the locking force; the greater the distance, the smaller the locking force. The appropriate distance between the point of force resultant and the second rotating hinge 6 can be determined according to the required locking force. The pressing surface of the second end 4211 of the locking bracket 421 can be set as a plane, a curved surface, or have a protruding portion relative to the side of the guard bridge 4. This invention does not limit the shape of the pressing surface of the second end 4211. (Reference) Figure 8 , Figure 9 Preferably, the pressing surface of the second end 4211 of the locking bracket 421 can be set to be flush with the side of the bridge guard 4; Reference Figure 10 More preferably, the pressing surface of the second end 4211 of the locking bracket 421 can be set as a protruding push rod to facilitate pressing by the user.

[0072] In one embodiment, reference Figures 13 to 14 A sealing ring 31 is provided inside the cavity 3, and the sealing ring 31 is press-fitted with the earphone 2 for sealing.

[0073] In this embodiment, the sealing ring 31 is made of an elastic material. The sealing ring 31 can be set on the sidewalls of the receiving cavity 3 at different depths as needed. When the earphone 2 is placed in the receiving cavity 3, it protects the receiving cavity 3 and the earphone 2 inside the sealing ring 31 from contact with external liquids or gases. Preferably, the sealing ring 31 is set near the opening of the receiving cavity 3.

[0074] In one embodiment, reference Figures 15 to 16 A second spring 32 is provided at the bottom of the receiving cavity 3. A protective spring block 33 is provided on the side of the second spring 32 near the opening of the receiving cavity 3. A limiting part 34 is provided on the side wall of the receiving cavity 3, and the limiting part 34 is located on the side near the opening of the receiving cavity 3. When the earphone 2 is taken out of the receiving cavity 3, the protective spring block 33 moves towards the side near the opening of the receiving cavity 3 under the elastic force of the second spring 32 and stops when it contacts the limiting part 34. The second spring 32 is a conical spring.

[0075] In this embodiment, the second spring 32 can also be an elastic sheet, a compression spring, or other elastic components. A conical spring, when compressed, occupies less space. By providing the second spring 32 and the protective spring block 33, when the earphone 2 is removed from the receiving cavity 3, the protective spring block 33 will stop at the limiting part 34 under the pushing force of the second spring 32, blocking the opening of the receiving cavity 3 and preventing external debris from entering the receiving cavity 3. When the earphone 2 is stored on the watch body 1, the protective spring block 33 is pressed against the bottom of the receiving cavity 3 under the pressure of the earphone 2. The limiting part 34 can be configured as a groove or a protrusion.

[0076] In conjunction with the above embodiments, the sealing ring 31 and the limiting part 34 can be provided separately or simultaneously; the sealing ring 31 and the limiting part 34 can be provided separately at different positions in the receiving cavity 3 or the two can be combined; preferably, the sealing ring 31 and the limiting part 34 are combined, and the sealing ring 31 protruding from the side wall of the receiving cavity 3 can also serve as the limiting part 34.

[0077] In one embodiment, the present invention provides a wearable device combining headphones and a watch, including any of the aforementioned watches and headphones 2 placed inside the watch.
