[0052] The smart ring capable of carrying health monitoring function in the prior art either adopts a large battery to prolong the battery life, resulting in a very large overall size of the smart ring and a poor wearing experience, or adopts a small battery to reduce the size, resulting in a very short battery life and the need for frequent charging, which can not be covered due to lack of power during the night sleep process requiring long time monitoring, and the convenience is greatly discounted; at the same time, due to the size limitation, the smart ring in the prior art usually cannot be provided with a vibration motor, so that when the health monitoring is performed, the health information can only be sent to an external device for reminding, and when the wearer is in sleep at night or the wearer cannot timely check the external device, the wearer cannot be timely reminded when the health information is abnormal.
[0053] To solve the above problems, the present application provides a smart ring.
[0054] Please combine Figures 1 to 3 and Figure 6 The smart ring of the embodiment includes a ring body, the ring body includes an inner ring, a charging battery, an outer ring and a master controller, the outer periphery of the inner ring is provided with the charging battery and a plurality of charging coils electrically connected with the charging battery and a health monitoring module, and the master controller is electrically connected with the charging battery; the outer ring is sleeved outside the inner ring and in sliding contact with the inner ring, and a plurality of magnets are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the inner periphery of the outer ring, the magnetic poles of any two adjacent magnets are opposite, and the inner ring can rotate relative to the outer ring to make the charging coils generate induced current and charge the charging battery through the induced current; the health monitoring module is used for monitoring, acquiring and processing the health information of the wearer, and sending the processed health information to the master controller; the master controller is used for comparing the health information with the preset health standard, and controlling the charging battery to supply power to the charging coil when the health information does not meet the preset health standard, the charging coil forms a magnetic field after being powered on, and the magnets interfere with the magnetic field to make the outer ring driven by the magnets vibrate relative to the inner ring along the axial direction of the ring body.
[0055] The technical scheme of the present application is characterized in that a plurality of charging coils 111 are arranged on the inner ring 11 of the ring body 1 along the circumferential direction thereof, and a plurality of magnets 121 are arranged on the outer ring 12 along the circumferential direction thereof, and the inner ring 11 and the outer ring 12 are in sliding contact with each other. During daily use, the outer ring 12 will rotate due to friction with the external environment caused by the daily activities of the wearer, and the adjacent magnets 121 have opposite magnetic poles, so that the charging coils 111 on the inner ring 11 can cut the magnetic induction lines during rotation to generate electromagnetic induction to generate induced current, which charges the charging battery 13, thereby improving the endurance of the smart ring. At the same time, the smart ring can be charged in real time, without the need to set a large battery to improve endurance, which can reduce the size of the smart ring and improve the user's wearing experience. At the same time, since the charging coils 111 of the present application are located inside the magnets 121, the charging coils 111 can be actively powered, so that a magnetic field is also generated around the charging coils 111, and the magnetic field of the charging coils 111 interferes with the magnets 121 to generate a force along the axis of the ring body 1. However, since the charging coils 111 are located on the inner ring 11, which is in contact with the wearer's skin, the resistance is large, so the charging coils 111 are fixed, and therefore the magnets 121 will be subjected to a pushing force, driving the outer ring 12 to vibrate together, thereby achieving the function of reminding the wearer. The present application uses the rotation of the outer ring 12 in daily life to charge the charging coils 111 on the inner ring 11 and the magnets 121 on the outer ring 12, which prolongs the endurance of the smart ring while ensuring that the size of the smart ring is small. At the same time, the magnetic field generated by the charging coils 111 on the inner ring 11 interferes with the magnets 121 to achieve the effect of vibration, so that the smart ring does not need to be provided with a vibration motor, and the size of the smart ring is small. It can also achieve the function of vibration reminder.
[0056] Further, when a pulse current with a changing direction is passed through the charging coils 111, the force received by the magnets 121 will also change in direction, and the force acting on the shell will also change constantly, and the overall performance is that the outer ring 12 vibrates back and forth, which can simulate the vibration effect of the vibrator motor, reminding the user. Application scenarios include phone calls, low battery, poor physical condition, and the need for timely medical treatment, etc. when there is a notification reminder.
[0057] Further, the outer periphery of the inner ring comprises a magnetic sensing area and a functional area outside the magnetic sensing area, the plurality of charging coils are arranged at the magnetic sensing area along the circumference of the inner ring, the charging battery and the health monitoring module are arranged at the functional area, the inner ring is provided with a relief hole corresponding to the position of the functional area, and the health monitoring module passes through the relief hole. The charging coil 111 and the charging battery 13 are arranged on the outer periphery of the inner ring 11, and a separate installation space is not needed for the charging battery 13, so that the overall volume of the smart ring can be reduced, and the wearing experience of the wearer can be improved. In order to obtain better detection effect, the relief hole 116 is arranged on the inner ring 11, so that the health monitoring module 14 can pass through the relief hole 116 to directly detect the health information of the wearer, and the accuracy of health information detection is improved.
[0058] In an embodiment, the health monitoring module 14 comprises a detection assembly and a processing assembly, the detection assembly is used to pass through the relief hole 116 and monitor and obtain the health information of the wearer, and the processing assembly is used to process the health information detected by the detection assembly and send the processed health information to an external device and a host.
[0059] The design that the detection assembly passes through the relief hole 116 can make the sensing part of the detection assembly as close as possible to the skin of the wearer, so as to improve the detection accuracy, and the existence of the relief hole 116 can make the layout of other modules inside the smart ring more compact and save space. The processing module can also send the health information to an external device, such as a mobile phone, a computer and the like, and visually display the health information, prompt the wearer which kind of health information is abnormal, improve the accuracy and timeliness of health monitoring, and give the wearer a better wearing experience.
[0060] In an embodiment, the magnetic sensing area 112 is provided with a plurality of mounting racks 114 along the circumference of the inner ring 11, the mounting rack 114 is formed with a threading hole 115, the number of the charging coils 111 is consistent with the number of the mounting racks 114, and each charging coil 111 is arranged on the threading hole 115 of the corresponding mounting rack 114, and each charging coil 111 surrounds an annular structure, and the axial direction of the charging coil 111 is the same as the axial direction of the inner ring 11.
[0061] When the axial direction of the charging coil 111 is consistent with the axial direction of the inner ring 11, the magnetic flux cutting direction of the charging coil 111 is perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic flux change generated by the rotation of the outer ring 12, so that the charging coil 111 can cut the magnetic flux change with the maximum intensity, thereby generating a larger induced current and improving the charging efficiency of the charging coil 111 on the charging battery 13.
[0062] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6Wherein, the letter N represents the N-pole of the magnet 121, and the letter S represents the S-pole of the magnet 121. In an embodiment, each magnet 121 is a U-shaped magnet, and the openings of the plurality of magnets 121 all face the inner ring 11 and enclose the rotating channel 122 with the inner ring 11, and the plurality of mounting frames 114 and the plurality of charging coils 111 are all located in the rotating channel 122. The magnet 121 is a U-shaped magnet 121, and the opening of the magnet 121 faces the inner ring 11 and encloses the quadrilateral rotating channel 122 with the inner ring 11, thereby playing a limiting and guiding role on the charging coil 111 and other structures located in the rotating channel 122, and ensuring that the charging coil 111 can fully cut the magnetic induction lines of the magnet 121 when the outer ring 12 rotates relative to the inner ring 11, thereby generating a larger induced current and improving the charging efficiency of the charging coil 111 on the charging battery 13.
[0063] In an embodiment, the magnet 121 includes a bottom plate 123 and first and second side plates 124 and 125 respectively arranged on both sides of the bottom plate 123. The first and second side plates 124 and 125 are respectively located on both sides of the charging coil 111 along the axial direction of the inner ring 11, and correspond to two magnetic poles of the magnet 121 respectively. The polarities of the first side plates 124 of any two adjacent magnets 121 are different. The first and second side plates 124 and 125 are respectively located on both sides of the charging coil 111 along the axial direction of the inner ring 11, and correspond to two magnetic poles respectively, so that the magnetic induction lines between the first and second side plates 124 and 125 are directly opposite to the charging coil 111, thereby ensuring the symmetry and stability of the magnetic field distribution and increasing the induction efficiency, thereby inducing a larger induced current and improving the charging efficiency of the charging coil 111 on the charging battery 13.
[0064] In an embodiment, the width of the charging coil 111 along the circumferential direction of the inner ring 11 is A, the width of the magnet 121 along the circumferential direction of the inner ring 11 is B, and the distance between any two adjacent magnets 121 is C, wherein A > B + 2C. The width A of the charging coil 111 along the circumferential direction of the inner ring 11 is greater than the width B of the magnet 121 along the circumferential direction of the inner ring 11 and twice the distance C between the magnets 121, so that the charging coil 111 can correspondingly cut the magnet 121 and cut the magnetic induction lines when the outer ring 12 rotates to any position, thereby ensuring that the charging coil 111 can continuously generate an induced current when the outer ring 12 rotates, improving the utilization rate of the rotation of the outer ring 12; and can simultaneously cut the magnetic induction lines of two magnets 121, so that the two ends of the charging coil 111 move in two magnetic fields with different polarities respectively, thereby improving the induction efficiency of the charging coil 111, causing the charging coil 111 to induce a larger induced current, and improving the charging efficiency of the charging coil 111 on the charging battery 13.
[0065] In an embodiment, the ring body 1 further comprises an energy storage element, each of the plurality of charging coils 111 is electrically connected to the energy storage element, the energy storage element is electrically connected to the charging battery 13, and the energy storage element is used to store the induced current generated by the charging coil 111. Since the rotation force of the outer ring relied on for power generation is random, it can be the relative movement between fingers or the relative movement between objects and fingers, and the action time will be intermittent, so the energy storage element is arranged in the circuit of the coil power generation, the energy storage element stores the small current intermittently generated and sends it to the charging battery 13, so that the charging coil 111 can output stable and balanced current to the charging battery 13.
[0066] Please refer to Figure 7 The application further provides a health monitoring method applied to the intelligent ring, wherein the health monitoring method comprises the following steps:
[0067] S100: The health monitoring module monitors and acquires the health information of the wearer.
[0068] The wearer wears the intelligent ring on the body surface of the wearer, so that the inner ring is in contact with the body surface of the wearer, at this time the health monitoring module passes through the avoidance hole and is in contact with the body surface of the wearer, thereby more accurately monitoring the health information.
[0069] S200: The health monitoring module processes the health information and compares the processed health information with a preset health standard.
[0070] S300: If the health information does not meet the preset health standard after comparison, the health monitoring module sends a vibration instruction to the main controller.

[0072] The health monitoring module judges the health status of the wearer according to the health information, and determines that the health status of the wearer is abnormal when the health information of the wearer does not meet the preset health standard, at this time the vibration reminding is realized through the cooperation of the main controller, the charging coil, the magnet and the charging battery, so that the wearer can timely perceive the abnormal condition of himself.
[0073] The charging coil 111 of the present application is located in the magnet 121, so that the charging coil 111 can be actively powered, so that the magnetic field around the charging coil 111 also generates a magnetic field, and the magnetic field of the charging coil 111 interferes with the magnet 121 to generate a force along the axis of the ring 1, but since the charging coil 111 is located on the inner ring 11, the inner ring 11 is in contact with the skin of the wearer, and the resistance is large, so the charging coil 111 is fixed, so the magnet 121 will be subjected to a thrust force, driving the outer ring 12 to vibrate together, thereby realizing the function of reminding the wearer. The present application cooperates the charging coil 111 on the inner ring 11 and the magnet 121 on the outer ring 12, uses the rotation of the outer ring 12 in daily life to charge, prolongs the endurance of the smart ring on the basis of ensuring that the size of the smart ring is small, and at the same time, the magnetic field generated by the charging coil 111 on the inner ring 11 interferes with the magnet 121 to achieve the vibration effect, so that the smart ring does not need to be provided with a vibration motor, and the function of vibration reminding can be realized on the basis of ensuring that the size of the smart ring is small.

The detection assembly can more comprehensively acquire the health information of the wearer by combining different sensor types, and improve the health monitoring effect of the smart ring.
[0085] Step S210 includes:
[0086] S2101: The processing module processes the heart rate data, the blood oxygen data, the motion data and the body temperature data, and compares the heart rate data, the blood oxygen data, the motion data and the body temperature data with the preset health standard;
[0087] Step S300 includes:
[0088] S310: If any of the heart rate data, the blood oxygen data, the motion data and the body temperature data does not meet the preset health standard, the health monitoring module sends a vibration instruction to the main controller.
[0089] It should be noted that the comparison result is obtained after comparison, and the comparison result includes qualified and unqualified. When any of the heart rate data, the blood oxygen data, the motion data and the body temperature data does not meet the preset health standard and is abnormal, the processing module determines that the health information is unqualified, and sends a vibration instruction to the main controller, thereby prompting the wearer that the health information is abnormal. At the same time, the processing module can also send the health information to external devices such as mobile phones, computers and other smart mobile terminals, and visually display the health information to prompt the wearer which kind of health information is abnormal, thereby improving the accuracy and timeliness of health monitoring and giving the wearer a better wearing experience.
[0090] It can be understood that the smart ring usually needs to be provided with a contact point on the outside of the ring when charging, so as to contact the charging connector for charging. However, the contact point is easy to rust and damage when contacting with the external environment, thereby reducing the service life of the smart ring.
[0091] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 9To solve the above problems, the application further provides a smart ring charging method applied to the smart ring, the smart ring further comprises a charging box, a charging compartment is formed in the charging box, a plurality of electromagnetic coils are arranged around the charging compartment, a controller is further arranged in the charging box, the plurality of electromagnetic coils are electrically connected with the controller, and the smart ring charging method comprises the following steps:
[0092] S400: placing the ring body into the charging compartment and charging the electromagnetic coils;
[0093] S410: controlling the current flow direction of the electromagnetic coils during charging by the controller, so as to change the polarity of the charging magnetic field generated by each electromagnetic coil, so that the charging coil in the ring body cuts the charging magnetic field to form an induced current, and the charging battery is charged by the induced current.
[0094] The charging coil 111 is arranged on the inner ring 11 and can generate current through electromagnetic induction, so that no external contact point needs to be arranged, the magnetic field can be generated by the electromagnetic coil 22 in the charging box 2, and the polarity of the electromagnetic coil 22 is changed by controlling the current flow direction of the different electromagnetic coils 22, so that the magnetic flux sensed by the charging coil 111 changes constantly, thereby generating current, completing the charging of the smart ring, and making the outer ring 12 of the smart ring closed without contact points, so as not to cause rusting and damage due to contact with the external environment, thereby prolonging the service life of the smart ring. By cooperation of the charging coil 111 on the inner ring 11 and the electromagnetic coil 22 in the charging box 2, wireless charging of the smart ring without external contact points is realized, thereby prolonging the service life of the smart ring.
[0095] Further, a buckle is arranged in the charging compartment 21, the buckle is used for abutting against the outer periphery of the outer ring 12, so as to make the outer ring 12 clamped in the charging compartment 21. When charging in the charging compartment 21, the charging coil 111 generates induced current for charging by using the principle of electromagnetic induction, but the magnetic field generated by the electromagnetic coil 22 also interferes with the magnet 121 on the outer ring 12, which may cause the outer ring 12 to vibrate, and the like. Therefore, the buckle is arranged to abut against the outer periphery of the outer ring 12, so as to avoid abnormal vibration of the outer ring 12 during charging, thereby improving the stability and safety of the smart ring during charging.
[0096] The above only describes optional embodiments of the application, and does not limit the patent scope of the application, and any equivalent structural transformation made according to the content of the application specification and drawings, or direct / indirect application in other related technical fields is included in the patent protection scope of the application.
