[0030] At present, most electrocardiogram vests on the market use snaps to securely connect the conductive cloth to the controller. However, the snaps are prone to falling off after repeated use, resulting in a loose connection of the conductive cloth and a lack of reliability.

[0031] Based on the above technical problems, the present invention provides a conductive cloth fixing device, a wearable device and a conductive cloth fixing method, wherein the conductive cloth fixing device can firmly connect the conductive cloth to the controller, has good reliability, and extends the service life of wearable devices such as electrocardiograph clothing.

[0032] The technical solution of this application is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0033] In this embodiment, the conductive cloth fixing device is applied to a wearable device, which includes an electrocardiogram signal detection device, an acupoint signal detection device, or other wearable devices that act on the surface of human skin to detect relevant characteristics of human body status.

[0034] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 A schematic structural diagram of a wearable device according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown.

[0035] In this embodiment, the wearable device is a wearable electrocardiogram garment. When the user puts on the electrocardiogram garment, the flexible electrodes just correspond to the user's part to be detected and stick to the skin surface. The part to be detected can be the human chest or other acupuncture points of the human body.

[0036] The wearable device includes a wearable body 1, a conductive fabric fixing device 2, and flexible electrodes 3. The wearable body 1 is an electrocardiogram (ECG) garment body 1. The conductive fabric fixing device 2 is mounted on the ECG garment body 1 and is used to secure the conductive fabric, controller, and related electronic components. The flexible electrodes 3 are electrically connected to the controller via the conductive fabric. When the ECG garment body is worn, the flexible electrodes 3 are positioned on the chest to facilitate the collection of ECG signals. After the ECG garment body is worn, the flexible electrodes 3 are transmitted to the controller for analysis.

[0037] According to a first aspect of an embodiment of the present invention, a conductive cloth fixing device 2 is provided, which is applied to a wearable device.

[0038] See also Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a schematic structural diagram of the conductive cloth installation according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0039] The conductive cloth fixing device 2 includes a first base 21, a second base 22, a flexible circuit board 23, a conductive foam 24 and a conductive cloth 25; the first base 21 and the second base 22 are buckled together to form a semi-enclosed accommodating cavity; the flexible circuit board 23 and the conductive foam 24 are arranged in the accommodating cavity, and the conductive foam 24 is located between the flexible circuit board 23 and the second base 22; the first end of the flexible circuit board 23 extends to the outside of the accommodating cavity and is electrically connected to the controller of the wearable device, and its second end is located on the inner side of the first base 21 facing the second base 22, and is provided with a first conductive area 231; the first end of the conductive cloth 25 contacts the first conductive area 231 of the flexible circuit board 23 to achieve electrical connection, and the second end of the conductive cloth 25 bypasses the conductive foam 24 and extends from the gap between the conductive foam 24 and the second base 22 to the outside of one end of the semi-enclosed accommodating cavity.

[0040] By applying the above-mentioned technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention, a first base and a second base are set up, and the first base and the second base form a receiving cavity, and the flexible circuit board, conductive foam and conductive cloth are fixed in the receiving cavity, and the conductive cloth is firmly connected to the controller, with good reliability, so as to prevent the conductive cloth of the electrocardiograph clothes from loosening from the controller due to friction and other forces during use, thereby affecting the normal use of the electrocardiograph clothes.

[0041] See also Figure 3 , Figure 3 The figure is a schematic structural diagram of a flexible circuit board according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0042] In this embodiment, the first conductive region 231 of the flexible circuit board 23 may be provided with a plurality of metal pads 231 for contacting or welding with the conductive foam 24 and the conductive fabric 25 to achieve electrical connection. The edge of the flexible circuit board 23 is also provided with a plurality of first mounting holes 232, which are used to connect to the second conductive region of the top cover 26. The first mounting holes 232 may include a plurality of metal through-holes or a plurality of insulating through-holes. If the first mounting holes 232 are insulating through-holes, the controller 28 is connected to the corresponding printed conductors on the flexible circuit board 23 via wires.

[0043] Conductive foam 24 refers to a conductive cloth wrapped on a flame-retardant sponge. After a series of treatments, it has good surface conductivity and can be easily fixed to the device to be shielded with adhesive tape. It is a conductive component. Conductive foam is usually provided in the electrocardiograph clothing to fix the conductive cloth. Under normal circumstances, if the conductive foam adopts a full-back adhesive process, the insulation performance of the conductive foam back adhesive is reduced after washing, and poor contact is likely to occur; if the conductive foam adopts a no-back adhesive process, it will easily shift after shaking and friction, resulting in poor contact. Both full-back adhesive and no-back adhesive conductive foams will affect the detection of electrocardiograph signals when used in electrocardiograph clothing. Therefore, the conductive foam 24 of this embodiment is only partially provided with adhesive for easy pasting, and some areas are exposed to facilitate the effectiveness of electrical connection.

[0044] In an alternative embodiment, see Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a schematic structural diagram of a conductive foam according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0045] The conductive foam 24 has a first abutting surface, which is provided with a pasting area 241 and an exposed area 242; wherein the pasting area 241 is provided with adhesive for pasting the conductive foam 24 and the conductive cloth 25, and the exposed area 242 is not provided with adhesive.

[0046] When the first base 21 and the second base 22 are buckled together, the adhesive area 241 is bonded to the first end of the conductive cloth 25, and the conductive cloth 25 abuts against the first conductive area of ​​the flexible circuit board 23 to achieve electrical connection; the exposed area 242 directly abuts against the first conductive area of ​​the flexible circuit 23 to achieve electrical connection.

[0047] In this embodiment, the exposed area 242 and the adhesive area 241 are arranged along the length direction of the conductive foam 24, and the area of ​​the adhesive area 241 is between one-third and two-thirds of the area of ​​the first abutting surface, so as to ensure an effective connection between the conductive foam 24 and the metal pad of the flexible circuit board 23, that is, the insulation performance will not be reduced due to water washing, and poor contact will not occur to affect the effectiveness of the electrical connection.

[0048] Alternatively, if the adhesive area 241 is one-third of the area of ​​the first abutting surface, the exposed area 242 is two-thirds of the area of ​​the first abutting surface; if the adhesive area 241 is one-half of the area of ​​the first abutting surface, the exposed area 242 is one-half of the area of ​​the first abutting surface; if the adhesive area 241 is two-thirds of the area of ​​the first abutting surface, the exposed area 242 is one-third of the area of ​​the first abutting surface. In other embodiments, the area of ​​the adhesive area 241 can also be set to other values ​​within the above range, as long as an effective and stable connection is ensured.

[0049] Please also see Figure 5 、 Figure 6 and Figure 7 , Figure 5 A schematic diagram of the installation of a top cover according to an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 6 A schematic structural diagram of a first base according to an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 7 This is a schematic structural diagram of a connector according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0050] The conductive cloth fixing device 2 also includes a top cover 26 and a connecting member 27; the top cover 26 covers the top of the first base 21, and the controller 28 and the signal processing circuit are arranged inside the top cover 26. The controller 28 is electrically connected to the metal pad of the first conductive area of ​​the flexible circuit board 23 through the connecting member 27, and receives the electrocardiogram signal transmitted by the flexible circuit board 23.

[0051] Optionally, a second conductive region 261 is provided on the outer surface of the top cover 26 facing the first base 21. The second conductive region 261 is electrically connected to the controller 28 and to the first conductive region of the flexible circuit board 23 via the connector 27. The second conductive region 261 may include a plurality of metal pads 261 or a plurality of metal grooves 261. When the second conductive region 261 comprises a plurality of metal grooves 261, the metal grooves 261 can better contact the connector 27, that is, the connector 27 can precisely contact the metal grooves 261. The metal grooves 261 can restrict the movement of the connector 27 and prevent poor contact.

[0052] The connector 27 is a metal connector; the metal connector includes an abutment plane and a circular abutment portion. The first end of the flexible circuit board 23 is provided with a first mounting hole 232; the first mounting hole 232 is electrically connected to the plurality of metal pads of the first conductive area 231 via printed conductors.

[0053] The first base 21 is provided with a second mounting hole 211, which corresponds to the first mounting hole 232 and the second conductive region 261. The metal connector 27 passes through the first mounting hole 232 and the second mounting hole 211 and abuts against the metal groove 261 of the second conductive region 261, thereby electrically connecting the flexible circuit board 23 to the controller 28 of the wearable device. The first mounting hole 232 and the second mounting hole 211 can be through-holes with metal-coated inner walls, which can provide electrical conductivity. The metal connector 27 can provide electrical conductivity when in contact with the first mounting hole 232 and the second mounting hole 211.

[0054] Optionally, the metal connector 27 may be a spring pin, which can ensure effective electrical connection between the flexible circuit board 25 of the first base 21 and the controller 18 on the top cover 26, while enhancing the stability of the structure so that the top cover is not easily loosened.

[0055] In order to ensure the stability of the installation between the top cover 26 and the first base 21, in an optional embodiment, a slide groove 212 is provided on the side of the first base 21 facing away from the second base 22; the slide groove 212 is provided along the length direction of the first base 21.

[0056] A first stopper 262 is provided on the side of the top cover 26 opposite the first base 21. The first stopper 262 cooperates with the slide groove 212 to securely attach the top cover to the first base. When the top cover 26 and the first base 21 are detachably attached, the first stopper 262 of the top cover 26 slides within the slide groove 212. The slide groove 212 restricts the upward and downward movement of the first stopper 262, thereby preventing the top cover 26 from detaching from the first base 21.

[0057] Optionally, the chute 212 can be disposed in the middle of the first base 21 or at an edge of the first base 21, again without limitation. When the chute 212 is disposed in the middle of the first base 21, the first stopper 262 is correspondingly disposed in the middle of the top cover 26 and corresponds to the chute 212. When the chute 212 is disposed at an edge of the first base 21, the first stopper 262 is correspondingly disposed at an edge of the top cover 26 and corresponds to the chute 212.

[0058] In an optional embodiment, a first locking block 263 is provided on the top cover 26; a second limiting block 213 is provided at the end of the slide groove 212; when the second limiting block 213 of the top cover 26 slides within the slide groove 212 and reaches a preset position, the first locking block 263 abuts against the second limiting block 213, and the second limiting block 213 restricts further movement of the top cover 26 in the sliding direction, thereby locking the top cover 26. Optionally, to better secure the top cover 26 to the first base 21, a protrusion 264 is provided on the end of the top cover 26 away from the metal groove 162, which is configured to abut against a corresponding hole on the first base 21.

[0059] In an optional embodiment, an inclined latch 214 is further provided at the starting end of the slide groove 212; when the first limit block 262 of the top cover 26 slides in the slide groove 212 to reach a preset position, the inclined latch 214 limits the top cover 26 from continuing to move in the opposite direction of the sliding direction, thereby locking the top cover 26 and the first base 21 to prevent loosening during use.

[0060] A hole 215 is further provided at one end of the first base 21 close to the inclined locking position 214. The hole 215 corresponds to the protrusion 264 on the top cover 26. When the top cover 26 and the first base 21 are buckled together, the protrusion 264 is locked into the hole 215 to prevent the sliding top cover 26 from sliding.

[0061] In an optional embodiment, the slide groove can be set on the top cover, and the first limit block can be set on the first base. The first limit block can slide in the slide groove, so that the connection between the top cover and the first base is more stable.

[0062] The above-described technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention is applied by providing a first base and a second base, which form a receiving cavity. The flexible circuit board, conductive foam, and conductive fabric are fixed within the receiving cavity, and the conductive fabric is securely connected to the controller, thereby achieving high reliability. This prevents the conductive fabric of the electrocardiograph vest from becoming loose from the controller due to friction and other forces during use, thereby affecting the normal use of the electrocardiograph vest. Furthermore, a spring-loaded thimble connects and locks the top cover to the first base, and multiple latches are provided to ensure a secure connection and prevent it from becoming loose.

[0063] According to a second aspect of an embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a wearable device, such as Figure 1 As shown, the wearable device includes a conductive cloth fixing device 2, a wearable body 1 and a flexible electrode 3; the conductive cloth fixing device 2 is installed on the wearable body 1.

[0064] The flexible electrode 3 is connected to the conductive cloth, and the flexible electrode 3 is connected to the flexible circuit board through the conductive cloth, and is electrically connected to the controller 28 through the flexible circuit board; the flexible electrode generates a detection electrical signal, which is transmitted to the controller 28 through the conductive cloth and the flexible circuit board.

[0065] In this embodiment, the human body's ECG signals are detected using flexible electrodes and transmitted to a flexible circuit board via conductive fabric and conductive foam. The flexible circuit board and spring-loaded pins connect to a controller, further transmitting the ECG signals to the controller, enabling ECG signal detection. The conductive fabric fixing device in this embodiment securely mounts the flexible electrodes and conductive fabric, preventing damage from friction during use and preventing electrical connection failure after washing.

[0066] According to a third aspect of an embodiment of the present invention, a method for fixing a conductive cloth is also provided.

[0067] See also Figure 8 , Figure 8The figure is a flow chart showing a method for fixing a conductive cloth according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0068] The conductive cloth fixing method includes the following steps:

[0069] S1: Attach the first base to the wearable body; wherein, the wearable body may be an electrocardiogram clothing body.

[0070] S2: attaching a flexible circuit board to the bottom of the first base, and electrically connecting a first end of the flexible circuit board to a controller of the wearable device;

[0071] S3: Paste the conductive foam under the flexible circuit board;

[0072] S4: placing the end of the conductive cloth not connected to the flexible electrode between the conductive foam and the flexible circuit board, and making the conductive cloth contact the conductive foam and the first conductive area of ​​the flexible circuit board, and then extending the end of the conductive cloth connected to the flexible electrode around the conductive foam;

[0073] S5: Press the first base and the second base together and seal them with glue.

[0074] The above conductive cloth fixing method can produce a wearable electrocardiogram garment with strong connection reliability, not easy to loosen, and easy to use, which is helpful for detecting the human body's electrocardiogram signals.

[0075] The above-described embodiments merely illustrate several implementations of the present invention. While the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be noted that a person skilled in the art would be able to make numerous variations and improvements without departing from the spirit of the present invention, and all such variations and improvements fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
