[0003]然而,当电池的体积增大时,防水智能手表的体积也会增大
[0021]上述的防水智能手表中,设于安装腔的侧壁上的收容槽贯穿内壁并与密封槽连通,这使得收容槽可通过去除内壁的方式,在第一壳体上形成可收容拐角的避让空间,从而使得电池设于第一壳体内时,拐角可以放置于收容槽内。因此,当电池为具有拐角的非圆形结构,而第一壳体为圆形或与拐角对应处为弧形的环形结构时,在保证防水智能手表续航能力的基础上,可以通过减薄第一壳体中与拐角对应的部分的壁厚的方式,有效地减小第一壳体的外径尺寸,进而实现防水智能手表的整机体积的缩小,提高用户佩戴时的舒适性。又由于收容槽对应位置设置有限位筋,且限位筋能够在收容槽的位置处与防水圈抵接,所以在第一壳体与第二壳体连接时,限位筋能够在靠近收容槽所在一侧压紧防水圈,以使得防水圈被全方位压紧于密封槽,保证第一壳体与第二壳体能够可靠地密封连接,实现该防水智能手表的防水性能。因此,该防水智能手表的设计不仅能够实现防水性能,还能够在保证续航能力的基础上有效地减小防水智能手表的体积,实现防水智能手表整机的小型化。

Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of smartwatch technology, and in particular to a waterproof smartwatch. Background Technology
[0002] In waterproof smartwatches, the battery that provides power is housed within a cavity formed by the casing structure. Generally, the larger the battery, the more electrical energy it can store, resulting in longer battery life.
[0003] However, as the battery size increases, the size of the waterproof smartwatch also increases. This is especially true when the battery is a non-circular structure with corners, while the casing is circular or has an arc-shaped ring structure corresponding to the battery corners; in this case, the battery size and the size of the waterproof smartwatch are directly related. Therefore, given a fixed battery size, reducing the size of the waterproof smartwatch is a pressing issue that needs to be addressed. Summary of the Invention
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a waterproof smartwatch that can reduce the overall size while ensuring battery life, in order to address the above problems.
[0005] A waterproof smartwatch, comprising:
[0006] A first housing includes a first end face and a mounting cavity formed therein. The mounting cavity extends through the first end face. A sealing groove is formed on the first end face and is arranged around the periphery of the mounting cavity. The sealing groove divides the end face of the first end face into an inner wall and an outer wall. The side wall of the mounting cavity is provided with a plurality of receiving grooves. The plurality of receiving grooves are spaced apart along the edge of the mounting cavity. Each receiving groove extends through the inner wall and communicates with the sealing groove.
[0007] A waterproof ring is disposed in the sealing groove;
[0008] The battery has multiple corners on its outer edge and is disposed in the mounting cavity. The multiple corners are respectively disposed in the multiple receiving slots.
[0009] The second housing is connected to the first housing to close the mounting cavity. The second housing has a limiting rib protruding on the side facing the first housing. Each receiving groove corresponds to at least one limiting rib, and all the limiting ribs abut against the waterproof ring.
[0010] The technical solution will be further explained below:
[0011] In one embodiment, the portion of the sealing groove that is connected to the receiving groove is a first groove portion, and the other portion is a second groove portion, wherein the bottom width of the first groove portion is smaller than the bottom width of the second groove portion.
[0012] In one embodiment, the bottom width of the first groove is greater than or equal to 0.5 mm;
[0013] And / or, the portion of the outer wall corresponding to the first groove is provided with a clearance groove, one end of which is flush with the bottom of the first groove, and the other end of which penetrates the first end face.
[0014] In one embodiment, the width of the waterproof ring is equal everywhere.
[0015] In one embodiment, the limiting rib near the waterproof ring includes a first straight surface and a first inclined surface. The first straight surface is connected between the first inclined surface and the second housing. The first straight surface abuts against the waterproof ring. The end of the first inclined surface away from the first straight surface extends away from the waterproof ring.
[0016] In one embodiment, the limiting rib includes a second inclined surface on the side near the battery, one end of the second inclined surface is connected to the second housing, and the end of the second inclined surface away from the second housing extends toward the side away from the battery.
[0017] In one embodiment, a positioning groove is also formed on the side wall of the mounting cavity, and a positioning post is also protruding from the side of the second housing facing the first housing, the positioning post being disposed in the positioning groove.
[0018] In one embodiment, the length of the positioning post protruding from the second housing is greater than or equal to the length of the limiting rib protruding from the second housing plus the thickness of the waterproof ring.
[0019] In one embodiment, the first housing is further provided with a stop groove, the stop groove is connected to the sealing groove, and the waterproof ring is provided with a stop boss, the stop boss being disposed in the stop groove.
[0020] In one embodiment, the sidewall of the mounting cavity is further provided with a fixing post, a portion of the waterproof ring protrudes from the sealing groove and covers the end of the fixing post facing the second housing, and the waterproof smartwatch also includes a screw, the shank of which passes through the second housing and the waterproof ring and is threadedly connected to the fixing post.
[0021] In the aforementioned waterproof smartwatch, a receiving groove on the side wall of the mounting cavity penetrates the inner wall and communicates with the sealing groove. This allows the receiving groove to create a clearance space on the first housing by removing the inner wall, accommodating corners. Therefore, when the battery is placed inside the first housing, the corners can be placed within the receiving groove. Thus, when the battery is a non-circular structure with corners, and the first housing is circular or has an arc-shaped ring structure corresponding to the corners, while ensuring the waterproof smartwatch's battery life, the outer diameter of the first housing can be effectively reduced by thinning the wall thickness of the portion corresponding to the corners. This results in a smaller overall size of the waterproof smartwatch and improved user comfort. Furthermore, because a limiting rib is provided at the location of the receiving groove, and this rib abuts against the waterproof ring at the location of the receiving groove, when the first housing and the second housing are connected, the limiting rib can press the waterproof ring against the side near the receiving groove. This ensures the waterproof ring is fully compressed into the sealing groove, guaranteeing a reliable seal between the first and second housings and achieving the waterproof performance of the waterproof smartwatch. Therefore, the design of this waterproof smartwatch not only achieves waterproof performance, but also effectively reduces the size of the waterproof smartwatch while ensuring battery life, thus achieving miniaturization of the entire waterproof smartwatch.

[0040] In a traditional waterproof smartwatch, the watch includes a first housing, a second housing, a waterproof ring, and a battery. The first housing forms a mounting cavity with an open end, and the battery is housed within this cavity. The open end of the second housing also has a sealing groove, which is annularly positioned around the periphery of the mounting cavity. The sealing groove has outer and inner walls that are higher than its outer and inner sides relative to the center of the watch, respectively. The waterproof ring is located within the sealing groove. The second housing connects to the first housing to seal the opening of the mounting cavity. The second housing can press the waterproof ring tightly against the sealing groove, and the outer and inner sides of the waterproof ring are blocked by the outer and inner walls, generating pressure to ensure a tight seal between the second and first housings, achieving a waterproof effect. In this traditional waterproof smartwatch, when the battery in the mounting cavity is a non-circular structure with corners, such as a square battery, and the first housing is circular or has an arc-shaped annular structure corresponding to the corners, the maximum outer diameter of the waterproof smartwatch is the diagonal dimension of the battery plus twice the radial thickness of the first housing. To reduce the size of a waterproof smartwatch, its radial dimensions and battery size need to be reduced, which will affect its battery life. Therefore, the key challenge in miniaturizing waterproof smartwatches is how to achieve both reduced size and longer battery life.
[0041] Based on this, see Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of this application provides a waterproof smartwatch 100, including a first housing 3, a waterproof ring 2, a battery 4, and a second housing 1. Wherein:
[0042] Combination Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the first housing 3 includes a first end face 3b, and a mounting cavity 3a is formed therein, penetrating the first end face 3b. A sealing groove 31 is formed on the first end face 3b, surrounding the periphery of the mounting cavity 3a. The sealing groove 31 divides the end of the first end face 3b into an inner wall 3c and an outer wall 3d. The side wall of the mounting cavity 3a is provided with multiple receiving grooves 32, which are spaced apart along the edge of the mounting cavity 3a. Each receiving groove 32 penetrates the inner wall 3c and communicates with the sealing groove 31. A waterproof ring 2 is provided in the sealing groove 31. The outer edge of the battery 4 has multiple corners 41, and the battery 4 is disposed in the mounting cavity 3a. The multiple corners 41 are correspondingly located in the multiple receiving grooves 32. The second housing 1 is connected to the first housing 3 to close the mounting cavity 3a. A limiting rib 12 protrudes from the side of the second housing 1 facing the first housing 3. Each receiving groove 32 corresponds to at least one limiting rib 12, and all limiting ribs 12 abut against the waterproof ring 2.
[0043] In the aforementioned waterproof smartwatch 100, the receiving groove 32 on the side wall of the mounting cavity 3a penetrates the inner wall 3c and communicates with the sealing groove 32. This allows the receiving groove 32 to form a clearance space for accommodating the corner 41 on the first housing 3 by removing the inner wall 3c. Thus, when the battery 4 is placed inside the first housing 3, the corner 41 can be placed inside the receiving groove 32. Therefore, when the battery 4 is a non-circular structure with a corner 41, and the first housing is circular or has an arc shape corresponding to the corner 41, while ensuring the battery life of the waterproof smartwatch 100, the outer diameter of the first housing 3 can be effectively reduced by thinning the wall thickness of the part corresponding to the corner 41 in the first housing 3. This results in a reduction in the overall size of the waterproof smartwatch 100 and improves the user's wearing comfort. Furthermore, since a limiting rib 12 is provided at the corresponding position of the receiving groove 32, and the limiting rib 12 can abut against the waterproof ring 2 at the position of the receiving groove 32, when the first housing 3 and the second housing 1 are connected, the limiting rib 12 can press the waterproof ring 2 on the side near the receiving groove 32, so that the waterproof ring 2 is pressed tightly against the sealing groove 31 from all directions, ensuring that the first housing 3 and the second housing 1 can be reliably sealed and connected, thus achieving the waterproof performance of the waterproof smartwatch 100. Therefore, the design of this waterproof smartwatch 100 not only achieves waterproof performance, but also effectively reduces the size of the waterproof smartwatch 100 while ensuring battery life, which is conducive to the miniaturization of the entire waterproof smartwatch 100.
[0044] If only the receiving groove 32 is provided and the limiting rib 12 is not provided, the waterproof ring 2 located near the receiving groove 32 will only be blocked by the outer wall 3d, the second shell 1 and the bottom of the receiving groove 32. That is, only three sides of the waterproof ring 2 are blocked, while the side located near the receiving groove 32 is not blocked. This will cause the waterproof ring 2 to be blown open when the water pressure reaches a certain pressure value, resulting in the failure of the waterproofing ability.
[0045] Optionally, the number of receiving slots 32 can be designed according to actual needs. For example, when the battery 4 is a square battery 4, the number of corners 41 on the battery 4 is four, then the number of receiving slots 32 can also be four.
[0046] Optionally, the receiving groove 32 can be an arc-shaped groove or a polygonal groove, with the apex of the groove used to accommodate the battery corner 41. Schematic, the extending direction of the limiting rib 12 can be perpendicular to the wall thickness direction of the inner wall 3c; alternatively, the extending direction of the limiting rib 12 can be at an angle to the wall thickness direction of the inner wall 3c, for example, the limiting member 12 extends from the connection point with the second housing 1 towards the side closer to or further away from the inner wall 3c. The apex or center position of the limiting rib 12 near the cross-section of the receiving groove 32 provides lateral pressure on the waterproof ring 2 at the location where the waterproof ring 2 is missing from the inner wall of the receiving groove 32, thereby achieving waterproofing.
[0047] Optionally, the width of the limiting rib 12 can be the same as the missing portion of the inner wall 3c corresponding to the receiving groove 32, or it can be smaller. There can be one or more limiting ribs corresponding to a single receiving groove 32.
[0048] In one embodiment, combined Figure 2 As shown, the portion of the sealing groove 31 that connects to the receiving groove 32 is the first groove 311, and the remaining portion is the second groove 312. The bottom width of the first groove 311 is smaller than the bottom width of the second groove 312. Specifically, when the receiving groove 32 on the side wall of the mounting cavity 3a penetrates a portion of the bottom of the first groove 311, the bottom width of the first groove 311 will be smaller than the bottom width of the second groove 312. When the receiving groove 32 penetrates a portion of the bottom of the first groove 311, the receiving groove 32 can create a larger clearance space for the corner 41 on the first housing 3 by reducing the bottom width of the first groove 311. This design can further reduce the wall thickness of the portion of the first housing 3 corresponding to the corner 41, thereby further reducing the radial dimension of the first housing 3, which is beneficial to reducing the size of the waterproof smartwatch 100 and achieving the miniaturization of the waterproof smartwatch 100. The bottom width of the first groove 311 refers to the size of the portion of the first housing 3 corresponding to the first groove 311 after subtracting the thickness of the corresponding outer wall 3d. The bottom width of the second groove 312 refers to the size of the portion of the first housing 3 corresponding to the second groove 312 after subtracting the thickness of the corresponding outer wall 3d and the thickness of the corresponding inner wall 3c.
[0049] Furthermore, at the first groove 311, since the first groove 311 is connected to the receiving groove 32, and the bottom width of the first groove 311 is smaller than the bottom width of the second groove 312, the setting of the limiting rib 12 can press the waterproof ring 2 on the side near the receiving groove 32, so as to prevent the waterproof ring 2 from tilting due to pressure when the first housing 3 is connected to the second housing 3, thereby ensuring that the waterproof ring 2 is confined in the sealing groove 31 and ensuring the waterproof performance of the waterproof smartwatch 100.
[0050] In some embodiments, the bottom width of the first groove 311 is greater than or equal to 40% of the width of the waterproof ring 2 at this location, so as to provide support for the bottom of the waterproof ring 2.
[0051] Optionally, in one embodiment, combining Figure 2 As shown, the bottom width of the first groove 311 is greater than or equal to 0.5mm. This ensures that the bottom of the first groove 311 can reliably support the waterproof ring 2, preventing the waterproof ring 2 from detaching from the first groove 311 when the first housing 3 is connected to the second housing 1, thus affecting the waterproof performance of the waterproof smartwatch 100.
[0052] Optionally, in one embodiment, 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the portion of the outer wall 3d corresponding to the first groove 311 is provided with a clearance groove 313. One end of the clearance groove 313 is flush with the bottom of the first groove 311, and the other end penetrates the first end face 3b. In this way, the clearance groove 313 can increase the bottom width of the first groove 311 by reducing the wall thickness of the portion of the outer wall 3d corresponding to the first groove 311. This allows the first groove 311 to further shrink towards the outer wall 3d while maintaining the bottom width of the first groove 311. The receiving groove 32 can form a larger clearance space for the corner 41 on the first housing 3, which is conducive to further reducing the thickness of the portion of the first housing 3 corresponding to the receiving groove 32. This, in turn, is conducive to further reducing the outer diameter of the first housing 3 and reducing the overall size of the waterproof smartwatch 100.
[0053] In one embodiment, combined Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the outer wall 3d thickness is 1.0mm, and the minimum width of the bottom of the first groove 311 is 0.5mm. If the clearance groove 313 is not provided, the wall thickness of the first housing 3 corresponding to the battery corner 41 is 1.0mm + 0.5mm = 1.5mm. If the clearance groove 313 with a maximum width of 0.4mm is provided, the local wall thickness of the outer wall 3d is reduced from 1.0mm to 0.6mm. At this time, while keeping the minimum width of the bottom of the first groove 311 at 0.5mm, the wall thickness of the first housing 3 corresponding to the battery 4 corner 41 is reduced to 0.6mm + 0.5mm = 1.1mm. Compared with the case where the clearance groove 313 is not provided, the wall thickness is reduced by 0.4mm.
[0054] Optionally, in one embodiment, the receiving groove 32 and the relief groove 313 are contoured, meaning that the shape of the receiving groove 32 is the same as or similar to the shape of the relief groove 313. For example, the receiving groove 32 and the relief groove 313 can both be arc grooves or polygonal grooves.
[0055] In one embodiment, combined Figure 3 As shown, the width of the waterproof ring 2 is constant throughout. This avoids localized weaknesses in performance caused by abrupt changes in the size of the waterproof ring 2, and thus prevents the waterproof ring 2 from being stretched or deformed during production. The width of the waterproof ring 2 refers to its size along the width of the bottom of the sealing groove 31.
[0056] Optionally, the waterproof ring 2 can be made of silicone or rubber.
[0057] In one embodiment, combined Figures 2 to 4 and Figure 6As shown, the limiting rib 12 near the waterproof ring 2 includes a first straight surface 122 and a first inclined surface 121. The first straight surface 122 connects the first inclined surface 121 and the second housing 1, and abuts against the waterproof ring 2. The end of the first inclined surface 121 away from the first straight surface 122 extends away from the waterproof ring 2. The fact that the first straight surface 122 abuts against the waterproof ring 2, while the end of the first inclined surface 121 away from the first straight surface 122 extends away from the waterproof ring 2, creates a certain clearance between the first inclined surface 121 and the waterproof ring 2 when connecting the first housing 3 and the second housing 1. This ensures that the end of the limiting rib 12 away from the second housing 1 will not collide with the waterproof ring 2 during assembly, preventing the waterproof ring 2 from tilting due to collision and ensuring assembly consistency. The fact that the first straight surface 122 is straight allows for a larger contact area between the first housing 3 and the waterproof ring 2 when they are connected, ensuring that the limiting rib 12 can reliably confine the waterproof ring 2 within the sealing groove 31 and guaranteeing waterproof performance. The first straight surface 122 can be perpendicular to the second housing 1 or it can be inclined at an angle of no more than ±15°. The first straight surface 122 and the first inclined surface 121 can be flat or curved, as long as they achieve the above objectives.
[0058] In one embodiment, combined Figures 2 to 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the limiting rib 12 near the battery 4 includes a second inclined surface 123. One end of the second inclined surface 123 is connected to the second housing 1, and the end of the second inclined surface 123 away from the second housing 1 extends away from the battery 4. This ensures that when the first housing 3 is connected to the second housing 1, a certain clearance gap is formed between the second inclined surface 123 and the surface of the battery 4, preventing the end of the limiting rib 12 away from the second housing 1 from colliding with the surface of the battery 4, thus facilitating assembly. Typically, the upper and lower surfaces of a soft-pack polymer lithium-ion battery are arc-shaped at the corner 41, and the second inclined surface 123 can avoid the corner 41.
[0059] In one embodiment, combined Figures 2 to 4 and Figures 6 to 7 As shown, a positioning groove 35 is also formed on the side wall of the mounting cavity 3a, and a positioning post 11 protrudes from the side of the second housing 1 facing the first housing 3, with the positioning post 11 located in the positioning groove 35. Thus, during the connection between the first housing 3 and the second housing 1, the positioning post 11 can achieve a positioning function by connecting to the positioning groove 35, ensuring that the limiting rib 12 can be accurately positioned in the corresponding receiving groove 32 and reliably abut against the waterproof ring 2, thus ensuring the waterproof performance of the waterproof smartwatch 100.
[0060] Optionally, the number of positioning posts 11 can be designed as needed, for example, one, two, three or more, etc.
[0061] Optionally, the positioning groove 35 can penetrate the first end face 3b. For example, the positioning groove 35 can penetrate the inner wall 3c and connect with the sealing groove 31, so that the positioning post 11 can be easily inserted into the positioning groove 35. Alternatively, it can not penetrate the inner wall 3c and can be positioned separately on the inner wall 3c closer to the battery 4.
[0062] Optionally, the positioning posts 11 and the limiting ribs 12 are spaced apart, and the extending direction of the positioning posts 11 can be approximately the same as the extending direction of the limiting ribs 12. Alternatively, the extending direction of the positioning posts 11 can be at an angle to the extending direction of the limiting ribs 12. Schematic, the extending directions of both the limiting ribs 12 and the positioning posts 11 can be perpendicular to the wall thickness direction of the inner wall 3c.
[0063] In one embodiment, combined Figures 3 to 4 and Figures 6 to 7 As shown, the length of the positioning post 11 protruding from the second housing 1 is greater than or equal to the length of the limiting rib 12 protruding from the second housing 1 plus the thickness of the waterproof ring 2 (the protruding lengths of the positioning post 11 and the limiting rib 12 mentioned here do not include the vertical height of the inclined surfaces at their top ends). This ensures that when the first housing 3 is connected to the second housing 1, the positioning post 11 can first connect to the positioning groove 35 to achieve a positioning function, preventing the limiting rib 12 from contacting the waterproof ring 2 and causing it to be pressed off-center when not positioned, thus ensuring the reliability of the waterproof smartwatch 100 during assembly. The thickness of the waterproof ring 2 refers to its size in the depth direction of the sealing groove 31.
[0064] In one embodiment, combined Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first housing 3 is also provided with a stop groove 34, which communicates with the sealing groove 31. The waterproof ring 2 is provided with a stop boss 21, which is located in the stop groove 34. In this way, when the stop boss 21 is located in the stop groove 34, the stop groove 34 can limit the waterproof ring 2, thereby preventing the waterproof ring 2 from rotating and misaligning during assembly, and ensuring the waterproof performance of the waterproof smartwatch 100.
[0065] Schematic illustration: the stop groove 34 can be provided on the inner wall 3c and extend through the first end 3b, with the stop groove 34 and the receiving groove 32 spaced apart. In this way, the stop boss 21 can be easily installed on the stop groove 34, and the side wall of the stop groove 34 can effectively restrict the rotation of the waterproof ring 2.
[0066] In one embodiment, combined Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the side wall of the mounting cavity 3a is also provided with a fixing post 33. A portion of the waterproof ring 2 extends through the sealing groove 31 and covers the end of the fixing post 33 facing the second housing 1. The waterproof smartwatch 100 also includes a screw, the shank of which passes through the second housing 1 and the waterproof ring 2 and is threadedly connected to the fixing post 33. In this way, the first housing 3 and the second housing 1 can be reliably connected and fixed by the screw. At the same time, when the first housing 3 and the second housing 1 are connected, the screw can reliably fix the waterproof ring 2 to the sealing groove 31, ensuring the waterproof performance of the waterproof smartwatch 100 at the screw and improving the reliability of the waterproof smartwatch 100.
[0067] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way.
