[0052] In addition, the descriptions such as "first", "second" and the like in the present application are only for the purpose of description, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying the relative importance of the technical features indicated, or implying the number of the technical features indicated. Therefore, the features defined as "first", "second" can be explicitly or implicitly included at least one of the features.

[0053] Furthermore, the technical solutions among the various embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the fact that a person skilled in the art can realize it. When the combination of technical solutions contradicts each other or cannot be realized, it should be considered that the combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the protection scope required by the present application.

[0054] Referring to Figures 1 to 7 and Figure 12 and Figure 13 According to one aspect of the present application, the present application provides a pressure adjusting structure, comprising a head ring 1 and a top strap 3 connected with the head ring 1, the head ring 1 is provided with a main control board 2, the top strap 3 comprises a body 31 and a pressure sensor 32, a flexible circuit board 33, a rotary motor 34 and an adjusting strap 35 arranged in the body 31, the flexible circuit board 33 is electrically connected with the main control board 2, the rotary motor 34 and the pressure sensor 32 are respectively installed on the flexible circuit board 33, the adjusting strap 35 is installed on the rotating shaft 341 of the rotary motor 34 and the two ends of the adjusting strap 35 respectively extend to both sides of the top strap 3, and the body 31 is a flexible member, so that the tightness of the adjusting strap 35 is controlled by the rotary motor 34 to drive the body 31 to deform.

[0055] It should be noted that the pressure adjusting structure is mainly applied to a virtual reality device. In general, when the virtual reality device is worn on the top of the human head 8, the top of the human head 8 has multiple positions in contact with the virtual reality device, and the contact parts form multiple supporting points for supporting the virtual reality device. Referring to Figure 16 and Figure 17 A, B, C, D, E and F points, respectively, are A points where the top strap 3 is in contact with the top of the human head 8, B points where the head ring 1 is in contact with the nose, C and D points where the head ring 1 is in contact with the two ears, and E and F points where the head ring 1 is in contact with the back of the head and the forehead due to friction, E and F points play an auxiliary supporting role and can be ignored. In an ideal state, the uniform force on the A / B / C / D four points will bring a more comfortable feeling, because the force of the four points is not large. If the weight of the whole machine is mainly borne by the supporting point A, the user will feel that the pressure on the top of the human head 8 is too large and uncomfortable. If the weight of the whole machine is mainly borne by the B / C / D three points, the ears and the nose will feel uncomfortable. In the prior art, the pressure of the top strap 3 on the top of the human head 8 is not adjustable, so when the force is uneven, the user will feel uncomfortable, and it cannot be adjusted.

[0056] In the above embodiment of the present application, the pressure of the headband 3 on the head 8 is detected by the pressure sensor 32, and the detected pressure value is transmitted to the main control board 2 through the flexible circuit board 33. The main control board 2 compares the detected pressure value with the preset pressure value, and sends a control signal to the rotary motor 34 according to the comparison result. The rotary motor 34 controls the tightness of the adjusting band 35 through the rotation direction and rotation angle of the rotating shaft 341. Since the body 31 is a flexible member made of flexible material, the adjusting band 35 will cause the body 31 to deform during the adjustment process. After the deformation of the body 31, the pressure of the body 31 on the head 8 will change, thereby adjusting the pressure of the body 31 on the head 8 until the pressure value detected by the pressure sensor 32 is within the preset pressure value range. Specifically:

[0057] When the user wears the virtual reality device, the pressure sensor 32 in the headband 3 starts to detect the pressure value on the head 8. Assuming that the pressure value is 5 Pa, this pressure value is transmitted to the main control board 2 through the flexible circuit board 33 for judgment. Assuming that the static interval of the preset pressure value is 3 Pa-7 Pa, which is the interval that the human body feels comfortable through experiments. 5 Pa is within the interval, the human body feels comfortable, and the rotary motor 34 will not drive the adjusting band 35 to rotate, which means that the headband 3 is in a static state.

[0058] If the detected pressure value is 2 Pa, which is lower than the static interval of the preset pressure value, it means that the head 8 does not bear enough pressure, and the nose and ears bear too much pressure, which will cause the human body to be uncomfortable. The main control board 2 controls the rotating shaft 341 of the rotary motor 34 to rotate in the forward direction to drive the adjusting band 35 to move in the tightening direction. The tightening of the adjusting band 35 causes the body 31 to deform and increase the pressure on the head 8, until the pressure value detected by the pressure sensor 32 enters the pressure static interval and stops.

[0059] If the detected pressure value is 9 Pa, which is higher than the static interval of the preset pressure value, it means that the head 8 bears too much pressure, and the nose and ears bear too little pressure, which will cause the human body to be uncomfortable. The main control board 2 will make the rotating shaft 341 of the rotary motor 34 rotate in the reverse direction to drive the adjusting band 35 to move in the loosening direction. The tightening of the adjusting band 35 causes the body 31 to deform and reduce the pressure on the head 8, until the pressure value detected by the pressure sensor 32 enters the pressure static interval and stops.

[0060] This embodiment has the advantages of being able to automatically adjust the pressure on the head 8 according to the detection value of the pressure sensor 32, ensuring that the forces on each support point of the human head are uniform, and improving the wearing comfort.

[0061] In an embodiment, the flexible circuit board 33 always has a surplus bending amount during the deformation of the body 31. Referring to Figure 18 and Figure 19, the flexible circuit board 33 always has a surplus bending amount during the adjustment process, and will not be damaged and will not bear tension, only the adjustment belt 35 bears tension. In addition, referring to Figure 4 , the number of pressure sensors 32 can be multiple, for example, can be 3, the pressure on the head 8 can be detected from multiple points, and the detected pressure value is the average of the pressure values detected by the multiple pressure sensors 32.

[0062] In an embodiment, referring to Figures 6 to 12 , the body 31 is also provided with a mounting seat 36 and a sealing cover 37, which cooperate to form a containing cavity containing the rotary motor 34. The mounting seat 36 is formed with a clamping groove 361 and a shaft hole 362, and the rotary motor 34 is mounted in the clamping groove 361 and the rotating shaft 341 is rotatably mounted in the shaft hole 362. Referring to Figure 9 , the sealing cover 37 includes a bottom plate 372 and side walls 373 formed on opposite sides of the bottom plate 372, and each of the two side walls 373 is formed with a limiting hole 371 for the adjustment belt 35 to pass through. Specifically, the flexible circuit board 33 is formed with a recessed position, and the mounting seat 36 and the wire passing hole 331 are mounted on the recessed position. The mounting seat 36 only occupies a part of the recessed position, and the size of the sealing cover 37 matches the shape of the mounting seat 36, that is, the sealing cover 37 only covers the mounting seat 36, and partially covers the recessed position, but will not cover the wire passing hole 331 on the recessed position. Of course, the sealing cover 36 is also provided with a avoiding slot 374 for avoiding the rotating shaft 341. The rotating shaft 341 is provided with a mounting groove 3411, and the adjustment belt 35 is mounted in the mounting groove 3411. In a specific embodiment, the mounting groove 3411 can be an S-shaped groove 3412. The connection position between the mounting groove 3411 and the adjustment belt 35 is coated with adhesive. The connection position between the adjustment belt 35 and the mounting groove 3411 is fixed with adhesive to enhance the connection strength between the adjustment belt 35 and the mounting groove 3411, so that the rotating shaft 341 can wind the adjustment belt 35 thereon when rotating. Here, the S-shaped groove 3412 is provided to increase the contact area between the adjustment belt 35 and the mounting groove 3411 and the pressure therebetween, thereby facilitating the rotating shaft 341 to adjust and control the tightness of the adjustment belt 35. Of course, the shape of the mounting groove 3411 is not limited to S-shaped, but can also be other arc-shaped structures. The sealing cover 37 and the mounting seat 36 are both provided with threaded positions, and a threaded fastener can be used to fix the sealing cover 37 on the mounting seat 36, which can not only ensure the connection between the adjustment belt 35 and the rotating shaft 341, but also enable the rotary motor 34 to be placed in a sealed containing cavity, so that it will not be wrapped by the injection material during the subsequent injection process and will not be able to rotate.

[0063] In an embodiment, referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4The flexible circuit board 33 comprises a front surface and a back surface, and the body 31 comprises a housing 311 and a sealing band 312, the back surface is arranged towards the housing 311, the pressure sensor 32 is installed on the back surface to detect the pressure borne by the head top 8 of the human body, a soft rubber layer 6 is arranged on the pressure sensor 32, and the rotary motor 34 is arranged on the front surface. The flexible circuit board 33 is arranged between the housing 311 and the sealing band 312. The flexible circuit board 33 is provided with wire holes 331 for the adjusting band 35 to extend from the front surface to the back surface. The number of the wire holes 331 is two, and the wire holes 331 are arranged on both sides of the mounting seat 36 respectively. The two ends (two tail portions) of the adjusting band 35 pass through the two wire holes 331 respectively, the adjusting band 35 extends from the front surface of the flexible circuit board 33 to the back surface of the flexible circuit board 33, the sealing band 312 covers the side of the flexible circuit board 33 away from the housing 311, a soft rubber layer 6 made of the same material as the housing 311 is injection molded on the housing 311, the soft rubber layer 6 covers the surface of the sealing band 312 and the side of the body 31, and fills into the gap of the body 31, but does not enter the sealing cavity, so that the whole component forms an integral top band 3, and the stress is uniform, there is no gap in appearance, the internal circuit elements are protected, and the appearance is improved. At this time, the surface of the pressure sensor 32 is provided with a soft rubber layer 6, and the sealing cover 37 and the mounting seat 36 are connected with the body 31 through the soft rubber layer 6, as shown in point H in Figure 12 It should be noted that the part of the adjusting band 35 drawn out of the wire hole 331 can be wrapped by the filled soft rubber layer 6, so that the adjusting band 35 can drive the body 31 to move and deform through the soft rubber layer. Of course, in other embodiments, the two end portions of the adjusting band 33 can be directly connected with the body 31 to drive the body 31 to deform.

In the installation process, the two positioning pins 4 are inserted into the positioning holes 38 of the top band 3, and then the end of the top band 3 and the positioning pins 4 are inserted into the mounting holes 5 of the head ring 1 in sequence, and finally the printed circuit board in the top band 3 body 31 is connected with the main control board 2. The embodiment positions the installation of the top band 3 through the positioning pins 4, improves the installation precision, and adopts a detachable connection mode, which is convenient for adjustment. In addition, the head ring 1 can be spliced from two parts, and the width of the two spliced parts can be adjusted through the knob 7 to meet the needs of different users.

[0065] According to another aspect of the present application, the present application also provides a virtual reality device, which comprises a display structure and the above-mentioned pressure adjusting structure, and the display structure is installed on the head ring 1. Since the virtual reality device comprises all the embodiments of the above-mentioned pressure adjusting structure, it at least has all the beneficial effects brought by all the above-mentioned embodiments, which will not be described here.

[0066] Reference Figure 20 , Figure 20 The embodiment is a flowchart of a pressure adjusting method, and the pressure adjusting method comprises the following steps:

[0067] S100, controlling the pressure sensor 32 to detect the pressure value of the top of the head 8 of the human body;

[0068] The pressure adjusting method can be applied to the above-mentioned pressure adjusting structure and virtual reality device. When the user wears the virtual reality device, the pressure sensor 32 in the top band 3 starts to detect the pressure value of the top of the head 8, and sends the detected pressure value to the main control board 2 through the flexible circuit board 33. The number of pressure sensors 32 can be multiple, for example, three, which can detect the pressure of the top of the head 8 from multiple points, and the detected pressure value is the average value of the pressure values detected by the multiple pressure sensors 32.

[0069] S200, controlling the main control board 2 to compare the pressure value with a preset pressure value;

[0070] The preset pressure value is based on the pressure value range when the human body is comfortable to wear. When the detected pressure value is within the preset pressure value range, it indicates that the human body is comfortable to wear. When the detected pressure value is outside the preset pressure value range, it needs to be adjusted by rotating the motor 34.

[0071] S300, according to the comparison result, a control signal is sent to the rotating motor 34, and the rotating motor 34 controls the rotating shaft 341 to rotate to adjust the tightness of the adjusting belt 35, so as to drive the top belt 3 to deform through the adjusting belt 35. Specifically,

[0072] Referring to Figure 21 , Figure 21 The flowchart of the second embodiment of the pressure adjusting method of the embodiment of the application is shown in FIG. 3. S300 includes S301. If the pressure value is less than the preset pressure value, the main control board 2 sends a positive rotation signal to the rotating motor 34, and the rotating motor 34 rotates in the positive direction to tighten the adjusting belt 35, so as to drive the top belt 3 to deform through the adjusting belt 35 to increase the pressure on the human head 8.

[0073] If the preset pressure value is 3Pa-7Pa, and the detected pressure value is 5Pa, the pressure value is transmitted to the main control board 2 through the flexible circuit board 33 for judgment. In this interval, the human body feels comfortable, and 5Pa is just in the interval, the human body feels comfortable, and the rotating motor 34 will not drive the adjusting belt 35 to rotate, that is, the top belt 33 is in a static state.

[0074] When the detected pressure value is low, such as 2Pa, which is lower than the preset pressure value interval, it means that the pressure on the head 8 is not enough, and the nose and ears bear too much pressure, which will cause the human body to be uncomfortable. The main control board 2 controls the rotating shaft 341 of the rotating motor to rotate in the positive direction to drive the adjusting belt 35 to move in the tightening direction, and the adjusting belt 35 is tightened to deform the body 31 to increase the pressure on the head 8, until the pressure sensor 32 detects the pressure value entering the pressure static interval and stops.

[0075] Referring to Figure 22 , Figure 22 The flowchart of the third embodiment of the pressure adjusting method of the embodiment of the application is shown in FIG. 4. S300 further includes S302. If the pressure value is greater than the preset pressure value, the main control board 2 sends a reverse rotation signal to the rotating motor 34, and the rotating motor 34 rotates in the reverse direction to loosen the adjusting belt 35, so as to drive the top belt 3 to deform through the adjusting belt 35 to increase the pressure on the human head 8.

[0076] If the detected pressure value is 9 Pa, which is higher than the preset pressure value of the static interval, it means that the head 8 bears too much pressure and the nose and ears bear too little pressure, which will cause the human body to be uncomfortable. The main control board 2 will make the rotating shaft 341 of the rotating motor rotate reversely to drive the adjusting belt 35 to move in the direction of relaxation. The adjusting belt 35 is tightened to deform the body 31 to reduce the pressure on the head 8 until the pressure sensor 32 detects that the entering pressure is in the static interval and stops.
