[0002] As people's living standards improve, smart wearable devices, such as smart rings and smart finger rings that have both electronic functions and decorative effects, are becoming increasingly popular.

[0003] In related technologies, smart rings have a fixed size and style, which makes them inconvenient for users to put on and take off. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The main objective of this invention is to propose a smart ring that improves the convenience of putting on and taking off the ring and enhances the user experience.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention proposes a smart ring comprising:

[0006] The ring itself is designed in an open-loop style; and

[0007] The adjustment mechanism includes a cover plate movably connected between the two open ends of the ring body, a trigger element that engages with the cover plate, and a spring-loaded assembly that is pulsatorically connected to the cover plate.

[0008] The cover plate has a engaged state that engages with the trigger and a disengaged state that is detached from the trigger.

[0009] In the clamped state, the cover plate is located between the two ends of the open ring and compresses the spring-opening assembly;

[0010] In the disengaged state, the pop-out assembly pops the cover plate from between the two ends of the opening ring to the radially outer side of the ring body, and the two ends of the opening ring can be pulled open under the action of external force;

[0011] When the trigger is activated, the cover plate switches from the latched state to the disengaged state.

[0012] In one embodiment of this application, the adjustment mechanism further includes two brackets respectively disposed at both ends of the ring body, each bracket being connected to one of the spring-opening components, and both spring-opening components being connected to the cover plate;

[0013] In the latching state, the two pop-out components are compressed between the cover plate and the corresponding bracket;

[0014] In the disengaged state, the two pop-out components eject the cover plate radially outward along the ring body.

[0015] In one embodiment of this application, the pop-out component includes:

[0016] Support leg, one end of which is rotatably connected to the cover plate; and

[0017] The first elastic element has one end connected to the end of the support leg away from the cover plate, and the other end connected to the corresponding bracket.

[0018] In one embodiment of this application, the bracket has a guide slope on the side facing the corresponding support leg.

[0019] In one embodiment of this application, each of the brackets is provided with a corresponding trigger, and both triggers are engaged with the cover plate.

[0020] The trigger element is movable relative to the bracket to engage or disengage from the cover plate.

[0021] In one embodiment of this application, the trigger includes at least one button disposed on the side of the bracket, one end of the button having a fastening portion and the other end extending to the outside of the side surface of the bracket;

[0022] The inner side of the cover plate is provided with a snap-fit ​​strip for engaging with the snap-fit ​​part.

[0023] In one embodiment of this application, the bracket is provided with a button slot; the trigger includes two buttons, which are slidably engaged in the button slot and are respectively located on both sides of the bracket;

[0024] A second elastic element is sandwiched between the two buttons to drive the two buttons to move in opposite directions so that the fastening part is engaged with the buckle strip.

[0025] In one embodiment of this application, the buckle strip extends circumferentially along the ring body, and the fastening portion slides in circumferentially with the buckle strip.

[0026] In one embodiment of this application, the smart ring further includes a button strip connecting the two supports, and the buttons on the two supports are slidably engaged with the button strip.

[0027] In one embodiment of this application, the trigger and the cover plate slide in a circumferential engagement on the ring body, so that when the cover plate is in the locked state, the two ends of the open ring can be pulled open under the action of external force.

[0028] In one embodiment of this application, the ring body includes:

[0029] The outer shell of the main body is open-ring shaped;

[0030] An FPC assembly is disposed within the housing of the main body, and the adjustment mechanism is connected to both ends of the FPC assembly; and

[0031] A retractable sealing sleeve seals the two ends of the main body shell and encloses the adjustment mechanism.

[0032] In the smart ring of this invention, an adjustment mechanism is connected to both ends of the ring body's open loop. This adjustment mechanism includes a cover plate, a trigger, and a spring-loaded assembly that is kinetically connected to the cover plate. The cover plate and the trigger engage, allowing the cover plate to have both a locked and unlocked state. When the smart ring is worn or in its initial state when not worn, the cover plate is in the locked state. When the user needs to remove the ring from their finger, the user can simply trigger the trigger, causing the cover plate to disengage from the trigger. The spring-loaded assembly then pops the cover plate outward from between the two ends of the open loop, simultaneously pulling the two ends of the open loop apart. This increases the inner diameter of the smart ring, making it easier for the user to put on and take off the ring and improving the user experience. Attached Figure Description

If the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or impossible to implement, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection claimed by this invention.

[0055] This invention proposes a smart ring designed to improve the convenience of putting on and taking off the ring.

[0056] In embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the smart ring includes a ring body 1 and an adjustment mechanism. The ring body 1 is an open-loop design; the adjustment mechanism includes a cover plate 2 movably connected between the two ends of the open loop of the ring body 1, a trigger 3 that engages with the cover plate 2, and a spring-loaded assembly 4 that is driven by the cover plate 2; the cover plate 2 has a engaged state where it engages with the trigger 3 and a disengaged state where it is disengaged from the trigger 3.

[0057] When in the locked state, the cover plate 2 is located between the two ends of the open ring and compresses and pops open the assembly 4;

[0058] When disengaged, the pop-out component 4 pops the cover plate 2 from between the two ends of the ring to the radial outside of the ring body 1, and the two ends of the ring can be pulled apart under the action of external force.

[0059] When the trigger 3 is triggered, the cover plate 2 switches from the clamped state to the disengaged state.

[0060] The ring body 1 is designed in an open loop shape. It can be understood that the ring body 1 has two free ends (both ends of the open loop) extending along its circumference. A notch is formed between the two ends of the open loop of the ring body 1 to communicate with the wearing hole. The adjustment mechanism is set at the notch and is connected to the two ends of the open loop of the ring body 1 respectively, so as to adjust the distance between the two ends of the open loop of the ring body 1. In this embodiment, the adjustment mechanism includes a cover plate 2, a trigger 3, and a spring-loaded assembly 4. The cover plate 2 is movably disposed between the two ends of the open ring and can engage with the trigger 3. When the cover plate 2 is engaged with the trigger 3, the cover plate 2 is limited in the radial direction of the ring body 1. At this time, the spring-loaded assembly 4 is compressed inside the cover plate 2, which is equivalent to the adjustment mechanism being in a locked state. This is suitable for the state when the user wears the ring on their finger or the initial state when the ring is not worn. When the cover plate 2 is disengaged from the trigger 3, the limiting effect on the cover plate 2 disappears. At this time, the spring-loaded assembly 4 can pop the cover plate 2 outward from between the two ends of the open ring, which is equivalent to the adjustment mechanism being in an unlocked state. The two ends of the open ring can be pulled apart under external force, so that the inner diameter of the smart ring becomes larger, which is suitable for the user's wearing and removal operation.

[0061] It is understandable that the smart ring in this embodiment, in its wearing state or its initial state when not being worn, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 The cover plate 2 is in a locked state with the trigger element 3. When it is necessary to remove or put on the finger, such as... Figure 7 Users can detach the cover plate 2 from the trigger element 3 simply by triggering the trigger element 3. At the same time, the cover plate 2 can pop outward under the driving action of the pop-up component 4, increasing the inner diameter of the smart ring and making it easier for users to put on and take off the ring. The specific structure of the trigger element 3 can be determined according to the actual situation. For example, it can be a button, knob, clasp, or lever, as long as it can facilitate the user's operation of holding or detaching the cover plate 2. Its specific structure is not limited here.

[0062] The function of the spring-opening component 4 is to pop the cover plate 2 out when the holding force on the cover plate 2 disappears. The specific structure of the spring-opening component 4 can be determined according to the actual situation. For example, it can be a spring structure, a spring sheet structure, or other structures with elastic functions, etc., and its specific structure is not limited here.

[0063] In the smart ring of this invention, an adjustment mechanism is connected to both ends of the ring body 1. The adjustment mechanism includes a cover plate 2, a trigger 3, and a spring-loaded assembly 4 that is pulsatorically connected to the cover plate 2. The cover plate 2 and the trigger 3 engage in a locking mechanism, allowing the cover plate 2 to have a locking state and a disengaged state. When the smart ring is worn or in its initial state when not worn, the cover plate 2 is in the locking state. When the user needs to remove the ring from their finger, the user can simply trigger the trigger 3, causing the cover plate 2 to disengage from the trigger 3. The spring-loaded assembly 4 then pops the cover plate 2 outward from between the two ends of the ring. Simultaneously, the two ends of the ring can be pulled open under external force, increasing the inner diameter of the smart ring and making it easier for the user to put on and take off the ring, thus improving the user experience.

[0064] In one embodiment of this application, as Figures 4 to 9 The adjustment mechanism also includes two supports 5 respectively disposed at both ends of the open ring of the ring body 1. Each support 5 is connected to a corresponding spring-loaded component 4, and both spring-loaded components 4 are connected to the cover plate 2. In the locked state, the two spring-loaded components 4 are compressed between the cover plate 2 and the corresponding support 5. In the disengaged state, the two spring-loaded components 4 push the cover plate 2 outward along the radial direction of the ring body 1. In this embodiment, two supports 5 are disposed at both ends of the open ring of the ring body 1. The supports 5 serve to connect the ring body 1 and the adjustment mechanism. By connecting a corresponding spring-loaded component 4 to each support 5, when the cover plate 2 is disengaged from the trigger 3, the two spring-loaded components 4 can simultaneously generate a spring-loaded force on the cover plate 2, making the force on the cover plate 2 more balanced, and thus making the spring-loaded movement of the cover plate 2 more stable and reliable.

[0065] As an example, such as Figures 5 to 10 The pop-out assembly 4 includes a support leg 41 and a first elastic element 42. One end of the support leg 41 is rotatably connected to the cover plate 2. One end of the first elastic element 42 is connected to the end of the support leg 41 away from the cover plate 2, and the other end of the first elastic element 42 is connected to the corresponding bracket 5.

[0066] This embodiment illustrates the structure of the spring-opening assembly 4. One end of the support leg 41 is rotatably connected to the cover plate 2, and the other end is connected to the first elastic element 42. The other end of the first elastic element 42 is connected to the corresponding bracket 5. Thus, when the cover plate 2 is engaged with the trigger 3, the cover plate 2 presses the support leg 41 and the first elastic element 42 between the cover plate 2 and the bracket 5. The first elastic element 42 is in a stretched and energy-storing state, which has the tendency to drive the support leg 41 to rotate and open the cover plate 2. When the trigger 3 is triggered, the cover plate 2 is in a disengaged state. At this time, the first elastic element 42 recovers its deformation and pulls the end of the support leg 41 away from the cover plate 2, so that the support leg 41 can rotate relative to the cover plate 2, thereby realizing the function of springing the cover plate 2 radially outward.

[0067] Furthermore, such as Figures 5 to 7 as well as Figure 11 The bracket 5 has a guide slope 501 on the side facing the corresponding support leg 41. Understandably, the guide slope 501 can limit and guide the movement of the support leg 41. When the cover plate 2 is in the disengaged state, the first elastic element 42 pulls the end of the support leg 41 away from the cover plate 2 to move along the guide slope 501, so that the support leg 41 can rotate smoothly relative to the cover plate 2 and open the cover plate 2, ensuring the reliability of the pop-out component 4 in opening the cover plate 2.

[0068] Optionally, the first elastic element 42 is a tension spring.

[0069] In practical applications, in order to further improve the reliability of the opening action of the cover plate 2, each opening component 4 may include two first elastic elements 42. The two first elastic elements 42 are spaced apart on both sides of the support leg 41 and are respectively connected to the corresponding bracket 5. Thus, each support leg 41 can be subjected to the elastic force of the two first elastic elements 42, which can further improve the movement reliability of the support leg 41 and extend the service life of the first elastic elements 42.

[0070] In one embodiment of this application, as Figure 6 and Figure 11 The outer surface of the bracket 5 is provided with a relief groove 502; when in the clamping state, the cover plate 2 is accommodated in the relief groove 502 so that the outer surface of the cover plate 2 is aligned with the outer surface of the bracket 5.

[0071] By providing a clearance groove 502 on the bracket 5, when the cover plate 2 is engaged with the trigger 3, it can be accommodated in the clearance groove 502. At this time, the outer surface of the cover plate 2 is aligned with the outer surface of the bracket 5, and the two ends of the cover plate 2 can respectively abut against the groove wall of the clearance groove 502 of the two brackets 5. This setting can further improve the connection reliability between the adjustment mechanism and the ring body 1 when the cover plate 2 is engaged, so as to maintain the reliability of the ring shape in the initial state or when the user wears it.

[0072] In one embodiment of this application, as Figures 5 to 9 Each bracket 5 is provided with a corresponding trigger 3, and both triggers 3 are engaged with the cover plate 2; the trigger 3 can move relative to the bracket 5 to engage or disengage from the cover plate 2.

[0073] In this embodiment, by setting a movable trigger 3 on each bracket 5, the two ends of the cover plate 2 can be engaged with the two triggers 3 respectively. This setting can improve the structural stability of the cover plate 2 in the holding state and enhance its ability to compress and limit the pop-out component 4.

[0074] As an example, such as Figure 5 , Figures 9 to 14The trigger 3 includes at least one button 31 located on the side of the bracket 5. One end of the button 31 is provided with a fastening part 32, and the other end extends to the outside of the side surface of the bracket 5. The inner side of the cover plate 2 is provided with a snap-fit ​​strip 21 for engaging with the fastening part 32.

[0075] This embodiment illustrates the structure of the trigger 3. The trigger 3 includes at least one button 31. The snap-fit ​​portion 32 of the button 31 can engage with the snap-fit ​​strip 21 of the cover plate 2 to achieve a locking and limiting effect on the cover plate 2. The button 31 is extended to the outside of the side surface of the bracket 5 for easy pressing operation by the user. In practical application, when it is necessary to put on or take off the ring, the user only needs to press the button 31 to disengage the snap-fit ​​portion 32 from the snap-fit ​​strip 21 of the cover plate 2. Under the elastic force of the first elastic member 42, the support leg 41 will push the cover plate 2 radially outward, causing the smart ring to be in an open state. The user only needs to gently pull open both ends of the ring body 1 to easily put on or take off the smart ring.

[0076] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 , Figures 11 to 14 The bracket 5 is provided with a button groove 503; the trigger 3 includes two buttons 31, which are slidably engaged in the button groove 503 and located on both sides of the bracket 5 respectively; a second elastic member 33 is sandwiched between the two buttons 31 to drive the two buttons 31 to move in opposite directions so that the fastening part 32 is engaged with the buckle strip 21.

[0077] By setting two buttons 31 on each side of the bracket 5, the user can press and clamp with two fingers, making it easier for the user to apply force. At the same time, while maintaining the pressing action, the two ends of the corresponding ring body 1 can be pulled outward, further improving the user's ease of operation.

[0078] A second elastic element 33 is sandwiched between the two buttons 31. The second elastic element 33 can provide elastic force for the two buttons 31 to move in opposite directions, further enhancing the holding force between the fastening part 32 and the buckle strip 21.

[0079] In practical applications, when the smart ring is in its initial state or in the wearing state, both buttons 31 are reliably engaged with the cover plate 2 under the action of the second elastic element 33. When it is necessary to put on or take off the ring, press the two buttons 31, the second elastic element 33 is compressed, the fastening part 32 is disengaged from the buckle strip 21, and the pop-out component 4 pops out the cover plate 2 for easy wearing and taking off. After the wearing and taking off operation is completed, release the two buttons 31, the second elastic element 33 restores its deformation and drives the two buttons 31 to move in opposite directions, and the user pushes the cover plate 2 between the two ends of the open ring until the buckle strip 21 is engaged with the fastening part 32.

[0080] Optionally, the second elastic element 33 is a compression spring.

[0081] In one embodiment of this application, as Figure 7 , Figures 11 to 14 The smart ring also includes a button strip 6 that connects the two supports 5, and the buttons 31 on the two supports 5 slide in conjunction with the button strip 6.

[0082] By setting a button strip 6 between the two supports 5 to slide and engage with the button 31, the button strip 6 can limit and guide the circumferential movement of the button 31, thereby limiting and guiding the circumferential opening of the two supports 5. In practical applications, when it is necessary to press the button 31, the button 31 can be triggered by pressing the button strip 6.

[0083] As an example, such as Figures 11 to 14 The outer surface of button 31 is provided with a first mating groove 311, and the inner side of button strip 6 is provided with a second mating groove 601. The second mating groove 601 and the first mating groove 311 are slidably engaged to realize the sliding engagement function of button 31 and button strip 6. In practical applications, in order to facilitate the assembly of button 31 and button strip 6, an opening 312 can be provided at the outer end of button 31 to facilitate deformation during assembly.

[0084] Optionally, button strips 6 are provided on opposite sides of the two brackets 5 to slide and engage with the buttons 31 on both sides respectively.

[0085] In one embodiment of this application, as Figure 8 The trigger 3 and the cover plate 2 slide together in the circumferential direction of the ring body 1 so that when the cover plate 2 is in the locked state, the two ends of the ring can be pulled open under the action of external force.

[0086] Understandably, when the cover plate 2 is in the locked state, the trigger 3 acts as a radial upper limit on the cover plate 2, preventing the cover plate 2 from being popped open by the pop-open component 4. In this state, by sliding the trigger 3 and the cover plate 2 in the circumferential direction, the two ends of the open ring can still be pulled outward or retracted inward even when the cover plate 2 is not popped open. This allows for adjustment of the inner diameter of the smart ring without popping the cover plate 2, accommodating fingers of different diameters. It also allows for adjustment of the inner diameter of the ring without altering its appearance.

[0087] In one embodiment, such as Figure 8 , Figure 10 as well as Figure 14 The buckle strip 21 extends circumferentially along the ring body 1, and the fastening part 32 slides and engages with the buckle strip 21 in the circumferential direction.

[0088] The cover plate 2 is connected to the two brackets 5 respectively through two spring-opening components 4. At the same time, the buckle strip 21 of the cover plate 2 and the fastening part 32 of the trigger 3 slide in the circumferential direction. So when the cover plate 2 is in the locked state, the two brackets 5 can still be pulled outward under the action of external force. At this time, the two brackets 5 will be subjected to the elastic tension of the two first elastic elements 41. When the external force disappears, the two first elastic elements 41 will cause the two brackets 5 to retract to a position that matches the diameter of the user's finger. So when the user wears it on his hand, the ring body 1 can exert a certain pre-tightening force on the finger to prevent the ring from falling off.

[0089] In one embodiment of this application, as Figures 1 to 3 The ring body 1 includes a body shell 11, an FPC component 12, and a retractable sealing sleeve 13. The body shell 11 is open-ring shaped. The FPC component 12 is located inside the body shell 11, and the adjustment mechanism is connected to both ends of the FPC component 12. The sealing sleeve 13 seals and connects to both ends of the body shell 11 and wraps around the adjustment mechanism.

[0090] Understandably, the smart ring utilizes the FPC component 12 to implement related electronic functions. Optionally, the FPC component 12 includes a bendable FPC circuit board 121 and electronic devices 122 mounted on the FPC circuit board 121. The electronic devices 122 may include components such as a main control chip, a Bluetooth chip, electrode structures, or switches. The outer shell 11 encloses the FPC component 12, providing aesthetic protection. In practical applications, it can be manufactured using injection molding. The sealing sleeve 13 seals and connects both ends of the outer shell 11, enclosing the adjustment mechanism and forming a closed ring structure with the outer shell 11. The sealing sleeve 13 is retractable, ensuring that the ring remains enclosed whether the ends of the ring body 1 are pulled open or the cover plate 2 is popped open, thus maintaining the overall aesthetic integrity of the smart ring. As an example, when the cover plate 2 is in the locked state, the outer surface of the sealing sleeve 13 and the outer surface of the main body shell 11 are on the same circumferential surface; when the cover plate 2 is popped open, the smart ring appears to have a bulge at the sealing sleeve 13; when the cover plate 2 is in the locked state and the two brackets 5 are pulled outward, the smart ring appears to have no bulge and the inner diameter can be adjusted.

[0091] Optionally, the sealing sleeve 13 is provided with a limiting groove at the position corresponding to the button strip 6 to limit the button strip 6.

[0092] In summary, the smart ring of this application can be worn on fingers of different diameters and is easy to put on and take off. Examples of different application scenarios are provided below.

[0093] Taking a convenient application scenario as an example: when the smart ring is in its initial state, such as... Figure 5 and Figure 6 The cover plate 2 and the trigger element 3 are engaged, and the spring-opening component 4 is compressed between the cover plate 2 and the bracket 5. At this time, the first elastic element 41 is in a stretched state. When it is necessary to take off or put on the ring, such as Figure 7 At the same time, press the button strips 6 on both sides of the sealing sleeve 13, so that the button strips 6 push the four buttons 31 to move towards the center until they are disengaged from the buckle strips 21 on the cover plate 2. Under the action of the four pop-up components 4, the cover plate 2 bulges outward, which appears as a bulge. In this state, the smart ring can be easily adjusted to a larger size and is easy to put on or take off.

[0094] Taking the wearing scenarios that adapt to fingers of different diameters as an example: when the smart ring is in its initial state, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 The cover plate 2 and the trigger element 3 are engaged, and the spring-opening component 4 is compressed between the cover plate 2 and the bracket 5. At this time, the first elastic element 41 is in a stretched state. When it is necessary to adjust the inner diameter, such as Figure 8 Without pressing button 31, the two supports 5 can be pulled open or retracted directly, making the inner diameter of the ring larger or smaller, thus adapting to the wearing function of fingers with different diameters.
