Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of wearable devices, and in particular to a wearable device based on body comfort and a control method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Wearable devices are those that come into close contact with the human body, can collect a variety of human body data, and provide interactive experiences in multiple aspects such as vision, touch, hearing, and health monitoring. In recent years, gestures, as an input channel, have been widely used in human-computer interaction, virtual reality and other fields. Among them, gesture interaction technology is a technology that captures human hand movements and converts them into corresponding commands to operate the device.

[0003] Existing gesture interaction gloves use a single sensor to capture gestures. This method often has the problem of being unable to obtain complete gesture information. When using the sensor to capture gestures, only simple gestures can be recognized, and certain specific gestures cannot be recognized. In addition, the specifications of gesture interaction gloves are fixed, which makes the wearer uncomfortable due to gloves being too large or too small. When capturing gestures, the gloves fail to fit the hands, resulting in inaccurate gesture capture, which reduces the accuracy of gesture command recognition.

[0030] The adjustment mechanism 1 includes a main ring body 11, a snap ring 12 and a drive ring 13, wherein the main ring body 11 is composed of a plurality of flexible slides 111 in sliding connection, the snap ring 12 is composed of a plurality of card plates 121 in sliding connection, a card slot 112 is provided on the slide 111, a card block 122 is fixedly provided on the card plate 121, the card block 122 is inserted into the card slot 112 and slides along the card slot 112, a drive plate 131 is fixedly provided on the outside of the card plate 121, two adjacent drive plates 131 are hinged by two arc-shaped support rods 132, and a plurality of drive plates 131 and arc-shaped support rods 132 together constitute the drive ring 13.

[0031] During implementation, the capture glove is worn, and then the position of the adjustment mechanism 1 is adjusted according to the size of the wearer's hand, so that the adjustment mechanism 1 is respectively located at the phalanges of the wearer's fingers, the center of the palm, and the wrist. Then, an external hydraulic drive device is used to drive the hydraulic rod 113 to slide along the hydraulic chamber 114, so that the slide plate 111 is contracted or expanded, thereby making the main ring body 11 adapt to the size of the wearer's hand and close to the wearer's hand, and the sensor modules are respectively attached to the phalanges of the fingers, the center of the palm, and the wrist, so that the sensor can obtain complete gesture information, and the clamping ring 12 and the driving ring 13 It can change with the changes of the main ring body 11, and then press the pressing block 41 to make the baffle 43 leave the range of the card slot three 116, and the driving ring 13 is in an active state. Then rotate the driving ring 13 and drive the card ring 12 to rotate, so that the hook 123 clamps the pull rope 2 and pulls the pull rope 2 along the slide 114, so that the pull rope 2 is stretched and drives the elastic breathable curtain 3 to expand and contract, so that the overall size of the capture glove changes, and thus it fits the wearer's hand better, making the wearer more comfortable when wearing the capture glove, and the sensor can accurately detect gesture commands, thereby making the recognition of gesture commands more accurate.

[0032] In addition, the driving plate 131 is fixedly set on the clamping plate 121, so that the driving ring 13 can change with the change of the clamping ring 12, and can only be passively reduced or enlarged by the clamping ring 12, so that the size of the driving ring 13 itself will not change when it rotates, and further the clamping ring 12 can rotate and pull the pull rope 2 to slide along the slide 114 through the hook 123.

[0033] In this embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2 There are multiple adjustment mechanisms 1, and the multiple adjustment mechanisms 1 are respectively located at the phalanges of the human fingers, the palm of the hand and the wrist. Multiple drawstrings 2 are slidably passed through the multiple adjustment mechanisms 1, and the outside of the drawstrings 2 is wrapped with an elastic breathable curtain 3. The adjustment mechanism 1, the drawstring 2 and the elastic breathable curtain 3 together constitute a capture glove.

[0035] During implementation, the hydraulic rod 113 slides inside the hydraulic chamber to shorten or expand the distance between the two slides 111. The slide 111 is a flexible slide, which makes the main ring body 11 shrink or expand, so that the main ring body 11 can fit the wearer's hand, further making the capture glove more applicable.

[0036] In this embodiment, Figure 4 A slide 114 is provided on the slide plate 111, and the pull rope 2 slides through the slide 114. A hook 123 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the card plate 121, and the hook 123 can clamp the pull rope 2 and pull the pull rope 2 to slide along the slide 114.

[0037] It should be noted that the multiple drawstrings 2 can be regarded as a complete glove net. When the drawstrings 2 are stretched, the size of the glove net changes accordingly, so that the size of the capture glove changes and fits the wearer's hand more closely, thereby allowing the capture glove to be adjusted according to the size of the wearer's hand, thereby improving the wearer's comfort.

[0038] In this embodiment, Figure 5 and Figure 6 Two cards and mechanisms 4 are symmetrically arranged on the driving ring 13, and the cards and mechanisms 4 include a pressing block 41, a gear rod 42 and a baffle 43, wherein a sliding cavity is opened on the driving plate 131, the pressing block 41 is slidably set in the sliding cavity, and a spring 45 is set between the pressing block 41 and the sliding cavity, and the gear rod 42 is fixedly set at both ends of the pressing block 41, and baffles 43 are slidably set on both sides of the driving plate 131, and a second card slot 44 is obliquely opened on the baffle 43, and the gear rod 42 is stuck in the second card slot 44 and slides along the second card slot 44.

[0040] During implementation, in the initial state, the baffle 43 is stuck in the slot three 116. When it is necessary to rotate the drive ring 13 to adjust the size of the capture glove, the pressing block 41 is pressed to make the gear lever 42 slide along the slot two 44, so that the baffle 43 slides toward the inside of the drive plate 131, and then breaks away from the range of the slot three 116, so that the drive ring 13 is not restricted, and can then rotate and drive the clamping ring 12 to rotate to stretch the pull rope 2. After the adjustment is completed, the pressing block 41 can be reset under the action of the spring 45 so that the baffle 43 is re-stuck in the slot 116, thereby limiting the capture glove so that its size no longer changes.
