[0079] Figure 4 This is an exploded perspective view illustrating the attachment structure of the housing and strap of an electronic device according to an embodiment. Figure 5 This is an exploded perspective view illustrating the attachment structure of the housing and strap of an electronic device according to an embodiment.

[0080] Figure 4 and Figure 5 The electronic device 400 can correspond to Figure 1 and Figure 2 Electronic device 100 and Figure 3 Electronic device 300.

[0081] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 The electronic device 400 may include a housing 410, a fastening member 420, a bracket 430, at least one main magnet 440, a belt 450, and a back plate 460. At least one of the above-described components of the electronic device 400 may be coupled with... Figure 1 and Figure 2 Electronic device 100 and Figure 3 At least one of the components of the electronic device 300 is the same or similar, and repeated descriptions are omitted below.

[0082] According to an embodiment, the housing 410 may include a cavity 412 formed to open in a lateral direction toward the electronic device 400. The cavity 412 may include a sidewall 412-1 and a plurality of recesses 412-2 and 412-3 formed in the sidewall 412-1.

[0083] Reference Figure 4For example, the sidewalls 412-1 of housing 410 may be defined to extend substantially along the y and z directions, and define a passage cavity (e.g., cavity 412) of housing 410 exposed to the outer surface of housing 410. The first and second sides of housing 410 may be disposed in a plane (i.e., the xy plane) extending along directions that intersect each other (such as intersecting x and y directions, each of which intersects the z direction). The z direction may be considered the thickness direction of electronic device 400 and its various components.

[0084] In one embodiment, the housing 410 includes a lateral side (e.g., lateral wall 412-1), a first sidewall projecting further than the lateral side (i.e., an upper plate-like portion in the xy plane and disposed in the -z direction), and a second sidewall projecting further than the lateral side (i.e., a lower plate-like portion in the xy plane and disposed in the +z direction), the second sidewall being at least partially spaced from the first sidewall (e.g., spaced along the z direction), wherein the projecting portions of the first and second sidewalls, together with the lateral side, define or enclose a space (i.e., cavity 412). (Refer to...) Figure 4 For example, cavity 412-1 may be open to the outside of housing 410 in the +x direction, -y direction and +y direction.

[0085] According to an embodiment, the fastening member 420 may include a button member 420-1 and a hook member 420-2. The hook member 420-2 may be disposed within the cavity 412 and may be attached to a strap 450 inserted into the cavity 412. The button member 420-1 may engage with the hook member 420-2, and the hook member 420-2 may be moved in the forward direction (e.g., +z direction) of the electronic device 400 by applying a force to the hook member 420-2 in the forward direction of the electronic device 400.

[0086] According to an embodiment, a first spring 471 may be arranged between the hook member 420-2 and the button member 420-1. The first spring 471, arranged between the hook member 420-2 and the button member 420-1, can apply an elastic force to the hook member 420-2 and the button member 420-1 that are coupled to each other. According to an embodiment, the first spring 471 may be omitted. According to an embodiment, a second spring 472 may be arranged between the hook member 420-2 and the cavity 412. The second spring 472 can apply an elastic force to the hook member 420-2 arranged in the cavity 412. The first spring 471 and / or the second spring 472 may include, for example, a coil spring and / or a leaf spring, but are not limited thereto.

[0087] The structures for attachment between the strap 450 and the housing 410, described later, such as hook member 420-2 and button member 420-1, can be located in the edge space of the body of the electronic device 400, reducing the size of the space required for attachment between the housing 410 and the strap 450. The body can be defined by the housing together with the fastening members and can have an integral dimension in each of the thickness and planar directions. When the button member, etc., is arranged in the strap, the thickness of the strap may increase and the flexibility of the strap may decrease, thus reducing the ease of use of the electronic device 400 when it is worn by a user. In contrast, when the mechanical structure of the embodiment, such as the button member 420-1, is arranged within the electronic device 400 having a predetermined thickness, the usability and aesthetics of the electronic device 400 are ensured.

[0088] Furthermore, since the hook structure of the hook member 420-2 in the embodiment can be formed to ensure a predetermined length of the hook structure along the edge of the body of the electronic device 400 within the cavity 412, the area where the force for fastening between the hook member 420-2 and the strap 450 is applied can be increased when the hook member 420-2 is attached to the strap 450. Additionally, since the force for fastening between the hook member 420-2 and the strap 450 can be applied to a wider area in the forward direction (e.g., +z direction) or in the reverse direction (e.g., -z direction) of the electronic device 400, the strap 450 can be more stably fastened to the housing 410.

[0089] According to an embodiment, the bracket 430 secures the button component 420-1 to the housing 410, wherein the fastening component 420 is not detached from the housing 410. The bracket 430 can be secured to the housing 410 by screws 432. According to an embodiment, the electronic device 400 may not include the bracket 430. For example, as... Figures 7c to 7f As shown, the electronic device 400 can be assembled into the housing 410 without the bracket 430.

[0090] According to an embodiment, at least one main magnet 440 may be arranged in the housing 410, and may be arranged at a position corresponding to at least one magnet 454, which will be described later, when the strap 450 is fastened to the housing 410. Therefore, for example, when the strap 450 is fastened to the housing 410, an attractive force may be applied between the at least one main magnet 440 and the at least one magnet 454. When an attractive force is applied between the at least one main magnet 440 and the at least one magnet 454, the user can conveniently fasten the strap 450 to the housing 410. Alternatively, for example, when the strap 450 is fastened to the housing 410, a repulsive force may also be applied between the at least one main magnet 440 and the at least one magnet 454. When a repulsive force is applied between the at least one main magnet 440 and the at least one magnet 454, the user can conveniently separate the strap 450 from the housing 410.

[0091] According to an embodiment, magnets 440 having multiple polarities can be arranged in the housing 410, and can be arranged at positions corresponding to the plurality of magnets 454, which will be described later, when the strip 450 is fastened to the housing 410. In this case, the magnets 440 and the magnets 454 can be arranged such that magnets with different polarities are arranged at corresponding positions. For example, the magnets 440 can be arranged in the order of N pole, S pole, and N pole, and the magnets 454 corresponding to the magnets 440 can be arranged in the order of S pole, N pole, and S pole. Therefore, when the strip 450 is inserted into the housing 410 in the correct direction, an attractive force can be applied between the magnets 440 and the magnets 454, and when the strip 450 is inserted into the housing 410 in the wrong direction, a repulsive force can be applied between the magnets 440 and the magnets 454. The arrangement of a plurality of magnets 440 and a plurality of magnets 454 having multiple polarities has been described above, but is not limited thereto. For example, a magnet 440 with multiple polarities and a magnet 454 with multiple polarities can also be arranged.

[0092] According to an embodiment, the tape 450 may include a tape body 455, a tape adapter 451 as a tape connector, and at least one tape magnet 454. The tape 450 may correspond to... Figure 1 and Figure 2 Attachment members 150 and 160 and Figure 3 Attachment components 395 and 397.

[0093] According to an embodiment, the tape body 455 can be connected to the tape adapter 451 and can be fastened to the housing 410 via the tape adapter 451.

[0094] According to an embodiment, the adapter 451 may be disposed on one side of the belt body 455 and may be fastened to the hook member 420-2 of the housing 410. The adapter 451 may include an attachment portion 452 and a plurality of protruding guides 453.

[0095] According to an embodiment, the adapter 451 may have a shape corresponding to the cavity 412 of the housing 410, and when the strap 450 is fastened to the housing 410, at least a portion of the adapter 451 may be surrounded by the cavity 412 of the housing 410. For example, when the strap 450 is fastened to the housing 410, the edge portion of the adapter 451 may be surrounded by the cavity 412 of the housing 410.

[0096] According to an embodiment, a belt 450 including a belt body 455 and a belt adapter 451 can be manufactured using the belt adapter 451 by injection molding. For example, the belt 450 can be formed by forming the belt adapter 451 of a metallic material and then injection molding the belt adapter 451 using a rubber material. However, the material of the belt body 455 is not limited to rubber. For example, the belt 450 can be manufactured by bonding and pressing the belt adapter 451 onto the belt body 455 of a fabric material. For example, a belt 450 in which the belt body 455 and the belt adapter 451 are integrally formed can also be manufactured.

[0097] According to an embodiment, the strap 450 with adapter 451 is attached to the attachment portion 452 (e.g., the joining portion) where the housing 410 is located, which can be formed as a hook structure, and is attached to the hook member 420-2 of the housing 410 when a portion of the strap 450 is inserted into the cavity 412 of the housing 410.

[0098] According to an embodiment, a plurality of protruding guides 453 with adapter 451 can be inserted into a plurality of recesses 412-2 and 412-3 formed in a cavity 412 of housing 410, and prevent the belt 450 from moving in the cavity 412 of housing 410 after the belt 450 is fastened to housing 410.

[0099] According to an embodiment, at least one magnet 454 may be arranged in the belt adapter 451 and may be arranged at a position corresponding to at least one main magnet 440 when the belt 450 is fastened to the housing 410. Therefore, when the belt 450 is fastened to the housing 410, an attractive force may be applied between at least one main magnet 440 and at least one magnet 454.

[0100] In addition, Figure 4 The text describes an electronic device 400 comprising at least one main magnet 440 and at least one magnetized element 454, but is not limited thereto. For example, the electronic device 400 may not include at least one main magnet 440 and at least one magnetized element 454.

[0101] The rear plate 460 of the embodiment may be arranged on a first side facing the rearward direction (e.g., the -z direction) of the electronic device 400 to cover a surface. For example, the rear plate 460 may be formed to include a hole (i.e., a closed opening or a closed through-hole) surrounding the button member 420-1 and exposing a portion of the button member 420-1 to the outside of the electronic device 400. The closed opening may be open on both the upper and lower surfaces of the rear plate 460. The closed opening may correspond to a closed opening in the first side of the housing 410 such that the two closed openings can be aligned with each other to allow the hook-button structure to connect at the aligned openings.

[0102] The housing 410 of the electronic device 400 in the embodiment may not include a separate lug for fastening the strap 450, and the strap 450 can be easily fastened to and detached from the housing 410.

[0103] The housing 410 and the fastening structure 450 of the electronic device 400 of the embodiment can improve the efficiency of the space in which the components within the electronic device 400 can be arranged.

[0104] The housing 410 and the fastening structure of the belt 450 of the electronic device 400 in the embodiment can be implemented in various designs, and can enhance the convenience for the user when replacing the belt 450.

[0105] The housing 410 and the fastening structure of the band 450 of the electronic device 400 in the embodiment can be implemented with various materials and designs. For example, since the band 450 can be fastened to the housing 410 excluding the lugs, the housing 410 of the electronic device 400 can be formed in various shapes other than circular (e.g., pad shape, polygonal shape, rectangular shape, etc.).

[0106] The housing 410 and the fastening structure of the belt 450 of the electronic device 400 of the embodiment can be manufactured with high yield and the cost required for manufacturing can be reduced. For example, since the belt 450 has a simple structure that eliminates the complex driver, the manufacturing yield is improved when molding the belt 450, and it has the effect of reducing the number of spare molds for short-term mass production and reducing the mold cost for manufacturing the housing 410 and the belt 450.

[0107] Figure 6 This is a diagram illustrating an example of button and hook components arranged in a cavity of the housing according to an embodiment.

[0108] Reference Figure 6 By combining the button member 420-1 with the hook member 420-2, the fastening member 420 of the embodiment can be arranged at least partially in the cavity 412 of the housing 410. The fastening member 420 combined with the housing 410 can be exposed to the outside of the housing 410 at the cavity 412 which opens to the outside of the housing 410 in the x-direction.

[0109] According to an embodiment, the button member 420-1 can be inserted into the cavity 412 of the housing 410 through an opening 414 (e.g., a rearward opening) formed in the housing 410 in the rearward direction (e.g., the -z direction) toward the electronic device 400. According to an embodiment, the hook member 420-2 can be arranged at the lower part of the opening 414 in the cavity 412. According to an embodiment, a second spring (not shown) can be arranged between the hook member 420-2 and the cavity 412.

[0110] According to an embodiment, a button member 420-1, inserted into a cavity 412 through an opening 414, can be combined with a hook member 420-2 disposed in the cavity 412. For example, the button member 420-1 can be assembled with the hook member 420-2 by inserting a protrusion 420-3 into a slot 420-4 of the hook member 420-2. For example, a first spring 471 can be disposed between the button member 420-1 and the hook member 420-2, but is not limited thereto.

[0111] According to an embodiment, the fastening member 420 may be composed of a button member 420-1 and a hook member 420-2. The button member 420-1 may be inserted into the cavity 412 through the opening 414, and the hook member 420-2 may be arranged in the cavity 412 along the side direction of the electronic device 400. Therefore, even if the space (or volume) of the cavity 412 is small, the fastening member 420 can be effectively arranged in the housing 410. The button member 420-1 may extend from the outside of the housing 410 at the rear side of the housing 410 and extend into the housing 410 at the cavity through the opening 414. That is, the opening 414 may be open at the rear and front sides of the protruding (plate) portion of the housing 410.

[0112] Figure 7a This illustrates an embodiment. Figure 6 A cross-sectional view of section A-A' (e.g., a cross-sectional view).

[0113] Reference Figure 7a The button member 420-1 can be coupled to the hook member 420-2 within a cavity of the housing 410. In this case, for example, a first spring 471-1 can be arranged between the button member 420-1 and the hook member 420-2. The first spring 471-1 can be arranged within a slot 420-5 (e.g., a spring groove) formed in the button member 420-1 and open in the front direction. The first spring 471-1 can provide force in opposite directions along the thickness direction between the button member 420-1 and the hook member 420-2 to deflect the button member 420-1 and the hook member 420-2 in directions away from each other.

[0114] Additionally, for example, second springs 472-1 and 472-2 may be arranged between the hook member 420-2 and the housing 410. The second springs 472-1 and 472-2 may be arranged within slots 420-7 and 420-8 formed in the button member 420-1. These slots may be open in the forward direction. The second springs 472-1 and 472-2 may provide force in opposite directions along the thickness direction between the housing 410 and the hook member 420-2, causing the housing 410 and the hook member 420-2 to deflect away from each other in a direction away from each other.

[0115] Therefore, for example, when the button component 420-1 is pressed by an external force such as from a user, a repulsive force generated by the elastic force of the first spring 471-1 and the second springs 472-1 and 472-2 can be applied to the user.

[0116] According to the embodiment, when the first spring 471-1 and the second springs 472-1 and 472-2 are arranged in two stages, the separation of the strap 450 from the housing 410 due to unintentional pressing of the button member 420-1 can be prevented. Furthermore, even when the button member 420-1 is pressed to a certain extent, the first spring 471-1 can absorb a certain force and prevent the hook member 420-2 from moving immediately.

[0117] Figure 7b This illustrates an embodiment. Figure 6 The cross-sectional view of section A-A'.

[0118] Reference Figure 7b For example, the first spring 471-1 can be omitted. For example, the button member 420-1 can be combined with the hook member 420-2 without the first spring 471-1. In addition, when the user presses the button member 420-1, the repulsive force generated by the elastic force of the second springs 472-1 and 472-2 can be applied to the user.

[0119] Therefore, when the belt 450 is mounted on the housing 410, the belt 450 can be prevented from tilting relative to the housing 410 by means of the first spring 471-1 or at least one of the second springs 472-1 and 472-2.

[0120] Figures 7c to 7f This is a diagram illustrating an example of fastening components assembled into a housing according to an embodiment. Figure 7f yes Figure 7e An enlarged view of region A in the image.

[0121] Reference Figures 7c to 7f The fastening member 420 can be secured to the housing 410 without a separate support 430. According to an embodiment, the fastening member 420, inserted into the opening 414, can be secured to the housing 410 by a plurality of fasteners 433-1 and 433-2, which are inserted into a thickness portion of the housing and cover a portion of the periphery of the housing body and a portion of the edge of the fastening member 420 at the opening 414. For example, the ends 420-9 and 420-8 of the button portion (e.g., button member 420-1) of the fastening member 420, at the outer edge adjacent to the opening, can be formed along the thickness direction at a lower height than other portions of the edge of the button portion of the fastening member 420. Such ends can have a stepped shape.

[0122] Additionally, recesses 410-7 and 410-8 can be formed as recesses in the housing 410 at locations adjacent to the ends 420-9 and 420-8 of the fastening member 420 around the opening 414 of the housing 410. Furthermore, a plurality of fasteners 433-1 and 433-2 can extend and be fitted into the housing 410, covering the ends 420-9 and 420-8 of the fastening member 420, and simultaneously covering the recesses 410-7 and 410-8 of the housing 410. Therefore, the fastening member 420 can be stably fixed to the housing 410 without the use of the bracket 430. Since the edges of the fasteners overlap with the stepped portion at the end of the button member 420-1, the fasteners 433-1 and 433-2 can constrain or limit the movement of the button member 420-1 in the rearward direction along the thickness direction.

[0123] Figure 8a This is a diagram illustrating the leaf spring arranged between the fastening member and the cavity according to an embodiment. Figure 8b This is a diagram illustrating the leaf spring arranged between the fastening member and the cavity according to an embodiment.

[0124] Reference Figure 8a and Figure 8b The leaf spring 473 is disposed in the cavity of the housing 410 below and extends from the hook member 420-2. Therefore, when the user presses the button member 420-1, the spring 473 can press against the housing 410, and the repulsive force generated by the elastic force of the leaf spring 473 can be applied to the user.

[0125] Figure 9 This illustrates an embodiment. Figure 6 The cross-sectional view of section B-B'.

[0126] Reference Figure 9 The hook member 420-2 may be disposed within the cavity 412 of the housing 410. The hook member 420-2 may be housed within the cavity 412 of the housing 410 in the mounting portion 412-9. The hook member 420-2 may include a groove 420-7 formed (e.g., open in the forward direction towards the electronic device 400) in the forward direction (e.g., the +z direction), and a second spring 472-1 may be disposed within the groove 420-7. The second spring 472-1 may be disposed within the cavity 412 between the mounting portion 412-9 and the hook member 420-2, and apply an elastic force from the housing 410 toward the hook member 420-2, i.e., apply an elastic force in a direction away from the surface of the housing 410 providing the bottom of the mounting portion 412-9.

[0127] According to an embodiment, the width L1 of the hook member 420-2 in the width direction (e.g., a direction perpendicular to the -z direction, such as along the x direction) can be greater than the width D1 of the first opening 410-1 formed in the rear direction (e.g., the -z direction) toward the electronic device 400. According to an embodiment, the length L2 of the hook member 420-2 in the length direction (e.g., along the thickness direction, such as the z direction) can be less than the length D2 of the second opening 410-2 formed in the side direction (e.g., a direction perpendicular to the z direction) toward the electronic device 400.

[0128] In one embodiment, the placement portion 412-9 and the first opening 410-1 may be stacked on top of each other along the z-direction to provide movement space for the button member 420-1 and / or hook member 420-2 of the fastening member 420, and the fastening member 420 may reciprocate along such a path. The second opening 410-2 may provide movement space for the attachment portion 10 of the fastening member 420 that moves together with the button member 420-1 and / or hook member 420-2.

[0129] According to an embodiment, the hook member 420-2 may include an attachment portion 10, and the end of the attachment portion 10 may protrude toward the front direction (e.g., +z direction) or the rear direction (e.g., -z direction) of the electronic device.

[0130] Here, the distal end (e.g., end portion) of the attachment portion 10 may be disposed inward from the outermost outer surface of the housing 410 that defines the second opening 410-2. The attachment portion 10 may include a protrusion extending in the -z direction from the common thickness (e.g., the location of the defining line L1) to provide a step or hook at the distal end of the attachment portion.

[0131] Figure 10a and Figure 10b This is a diagram showing the attachment portion protruding from the belt adapter according to an embodiment.

[0132] Reference Figure 10a and Figure 10b The belt adapter 451 included in the belt 450 of the embodiment may include an attachment portion 452. For example, the attachment portion 452 may be formed to protrude from one side of the belt adapter 451 at a central portion of the belt adapter 451. Referring again Figure 4 For example, the attachment portion 452 may protrude further from the adapter 451 along the -x direction. The attachment portion 452 of the adapter 451 may be formed as a hook structure and may be attached to a hook member 420-2 disposed in a cavity (e.g., 412) of the housing (e.g., 410).

[0133] Figure 10c This is a diagram showing the attachment portion that does not protrude from the belt adapter according to an embodiment.

[0134] Reference Figure 10c The belt adapter 451 included in the belt 450 of the embodiment may include an attachment portion 452. For example, the attachment portion 452 may be formed so as not to protrude from one side of the belt adapter 451 at the central portion of the belt adapter 451. Referring again Figure 4 For example, the attachment portion 452 may not protrude further from the adapter 451 along the -x direction (as in the planar direction of the xy plane). The attachment portion 452 of the adapter 451 may be formed as a hook structure and may be attached to a hook member 420-2 arranged in a cavity (e.g., 412) of the housing (e.g., 410).

[0135] The protrusion distance of the hook member 420-2 along the +x direction can vary depending on the protrusion distance of the attachment portion 452 along the -x direction toward the cavity of the electronic device 400. According to an embodiment, the degree to which the hook member 420-2 protrudes toward the side of the electronic device 400 (e.g., relative to the outermost surface of the housing 410) when the attachment portion 452 does not protrude from the adapter 451 can be greater than the degree to which the hook member 420-2 protrudes toward the side of the electronic device 400 when the attachment portion 452 protrudes from the adapter 451. Therefore, when the attachment portion 452 does not protrude from the adapter 451 (or when the attachment portion 452 protrudes only slightly), the strap 450 can be effectively attached to the housing 410, while enhancing the design perfection of the strap 450 of the electronic device 400 without degrading the appearance quality of the strap 450.

[0136] Figure 10d This is a diagram illustrating an example of an attachment portion and a protruding guide formed in a belt according to an embodiment.

[0137] Reference Figure 10d The strap 450 in the embodiment may include an attachment portion 452 and protruding guides 453-1 and 453-2. For example, one end of the strap body 455 along the direction closest to the electronic device 400 may be formed with a shape or cross-section corresponding to the shape or cross-section of a cavity (e.g., 412) of the housing 410, and the attachment portion 452 may be disposed at the central portion of one end of the strap body 455 (e.g., the center truncated along the y-direction). For example, the protruding guides 453-1 and 453-2 may be formed with a shape corresponding to a recess (e.g., 412-1 and 412-2) formed in a cavity (e.g., 412) of the housing (e.g., 410), and may be disposed at opposite ends of one end of the strap body 455, respectively. For example, the attachment portion 452 and the protruding guides 453-1 and 453-2 may perform the function of a strap adapter (e.g., 451).

[0138] Figure 11a and Figure 11bThis is a diagram illustrating an example of a hook member being attached to an attachment portion of a belt according to an embodiment.

[0139] Reference Figure 11a and Figure 11b For example, the attachment portion 10 of the hook member 420-2, which is attached to and moves with the button member 420-1, may include a hook structure formed to face one direction when the strap 450 is attached to the housing 410. The attachment portion 452 formed on the strap 450 may include a hook structure formed to face a direction opposite to the direction along which the hook structure of the fastening member 420 extends. Therefore, the hook structure of the attachment portion 10 of the hook member 420-2 attached to the button member 420-1 can be attached to the strap 450 at the hook structure of the attachment portion 452 formed on the strap 450.

[0140] Reference Figure 11b The fastening member 420 (represented by the attachment portion 10) can be aligned along the bonding direction of the electronic device 400 (e.g., Figure 11b The arrow in the diagram points in the x-direction toward the strap 450. When the electronic device 400 is detachably attached to the strap 450, the attachment portion 10 may face the attachment portion 452 and engage with each other to prevent the housing 410 and the strap 450 from detaching from each other. The housing 410 and the strap 450 may be detachably attached to each other through the detachable engagement of the attachment portion 10 with the attachment portion 452, but are not limited thereto.

[0141] Figure 12a This is a diagram showing the arrangement of the button components when viewed from the rear of the electronic device according to an embodiment.

[0142] Figure 12b This illustrates an embodiment. Figure 12a The cross-sectional view of section C-C'.

[0143] Reference Figure 12a and Figure 12b In this embodiment, the strap 450 can be attached to the housing 410. According to this embodiment, the button member 420-1 can be coupled to the hook member 420-2 and disposed within a cavity 412 of the housing 410, so as to be exposed to the outside of the housing 410 through the cavity 412. The hook member 420-2 can be disposed within the cavity 412 in a mounting portion 412-9. Additionally, a second spring 472-1 can be disposed within the cavity 412 between the hook member 420-2 and the mounting portion 412-9.

[0144] According to an embodiment, the opening 414 of the housing 410 may be formed to have a stepped shape in cross-section. For example, the opening 414 may include a first support portion 414-1 as a first support surface and a second support portion 414-2 as a second support surface. Therefore, when the button member 420-1 is inserted into the opening 414 and moves toward the cavity 412 in the +z direction, the protrusion 40 surrounding the button member 420-1 may be supported by the second support portion 414-2. The second support surface may constrain further movement of the button member 420-1 toward the mounting portion 412-9.

[0145] According to an embodiment, the bracket 430 can be fixed to the first support portion 414-1 of the opening 414, while surrounding the button member 420-1. Therefore, when the button member 420-1 moves toward the outside of the electronic device 400 through the opening 414 in the -z direction, the bracket 430 fixed to the opening 414 can block the movement of the protrusion 40 around the button member 420-1 and prevent the button member 420-1 from separating from the housing 410 and extending further to the outside of the electronic device 400 through the opening 414.

[0146] According to an embodiment, the attachment portion 10 of the hook member 420-2 may include a hook structure formed to protrude toward the rearward direction (e.g., the -z direction) of the electronic device 400. The hook structure of the attachment portion 10 of the hook member 420-2 may be formed by a protrusion 10-1 of the attachment portion 10. In addition, the hook member 420-2 may include a recess 10-2 formed by the protrusion of the protrusion 10-1.

[0147] Furthermore, when the strap 450 is attached to the housing 410, the attachment portion 452 of the strap 450 may include a hook structure facing forward (e.g., +z direction) toward the electronic device 400. The hook structure of the attachment portion 452 of the strap 450 may be formed by a protrusion 452-1 of the attachment portion 452 of the strap 450. Additionally, the attachment portion 452 of the strap 450 may include a recess 452-2 formed by the protrusion of the protrusion 452-1.

[0148] According to an embodiment, the strap 450 can be attached to the housing 410 by engaging the hook structure of the attachment portion 452 of the strap 450 with the hook structure of the attachment portion 10 of the hook member 420-2 of the housing 410. The attachment portion 452 of the strap 450 can be formed to accommodate at least a portion of the attachment portion 10 of the hook member 420-2 of the housing 410 when the strap 450 is attached to the housing 410. For example, the protrusion 10-1 of the hook member 420-2 can be accommodated in the recess 452-2 of the attachment portion 452 of the strap 450. Furthermore, for example, the protrusion 452-1 of the attachment portion 452 of the strap 450 can be accommodated in the recess 10-2 of the hook member 420-2. The strap 450, which is detachably attached to the housing 410, includes protrusions 10-1 and 452-1 that overlap each other along the engagement direction (e.g., the x-direction).

[0149] Reference Figure 12b Since the spring 472-1 deflects the fastening member 420 in the rearward direction (e.g., the -z direction), the belt 450 can be detachably attached to the housing 410 only under the force of one or more springs between the fastening member 420 and the housing 410.

[0150] Figure 13a This is a diagram showing the strap attached to the housing when viewed from the side of the electronic device according to an embodiment.

[0151] Figure 13b This illustrates an embodiment. Figure 13a The cross-sectional view of section D-D'.

[0152] Reference Figure 13a and Figure 13b In this embodiment, the strap 450 can be attached to the housing 410. For example, a first protruding guide 453-1 included in the strap adapter 451 can be inserted into a second recess 412-2 of the cavity 412 of the housing 410, and a second protruding guide 453-2 included in the strap adapter 451 can be inserted into a second recess 412-2 of the cavity 412 of the housing 410. Therefore, the first recess 412-1 and the second recess 412-2 can prevent the first protruding guide 453-1 and the second protruding guide 453-2 of the strap adapter 451 from moving in the lateral direction of the electronic device 400 (such as along the y-direction). For example, the first recess 412-1 and the second recess 412-2 can prevent the strap adapter 451 from moving in a direction perpendicular to the direction along which the strap adapter 451 moves into the cavity 412 of the housing 410 and is attached to the housing 410.

[0153] Figure 14a This is a diagram illustrating the recesses formed in the belt according to an embodiment. Figure 14b This is a diagram illustrating a cavity in which a protruding guide is formed according to an embodiment.

[0154] Figure 14c This illustrates an embodiment. Figure 14b The cross-sectional view of section E-E'.

[0155] Reference Figures 14a to 14c The protruding guides 412-5 and 412-6 formed in the cavity 412 of the housing 410 can be inserted into the recesses 456-1 and 456-2 with adapter 451.

[0156] Reference Figure 14a The adapter 451 in the embodiment may include a third recess 456-1 and a fourth recess 456-2. Additionally, an attachment portion 452 may be formed in the central portion of the adapter 451. For example, the attachment portion 452 of the adapter 451 may be formed between the third recess 456-1 and the fourth recess 456-2.

[0157] Reference Figure 14b In this embodiment, the cavity 412 of the housing 410 may include a third protruding guide 412-5 and a fourth protruding guide 412-6. Additionally, a hook member 420-2 may be disposed in the central portion of the cavity 412 of the housing 410. For example, the hook member 420-2 may be disposed in the cavity 412 of the housing 410 between the third protruding guide 412-5 and the fourth protruding guide 412-6.

[0158] Reference Figure 14c In this embodiment, the attachment portion 452 of the adapter 451 can be attached to the hook member 420-2 arranged in the cavity 412 of the housing 410. For example, the third protruding guide 412-5 and the fourth protruding guide 412-6 formed in the cavity 412 of the housing 410 can be inserted into the third recess 456-1 and the fourth recess 456-2 formed in the adapter 451.

[0159] Therefore, the third recess 456-1 and the fourth recess 456-2 prevent the third protruding guide 412-5 and the fourth protruding guide 412-6 from moving in the lateral direction of the electronic device 400. For example, the third recess 456-1 and the fourth recess 456-2 prevent the adapter 451 from moving in a direction perpendicular to the direction along which the adapter 451 moves into the cavity 412 of the housing 410 and attaches to the housing 410.

[0160] Figure 15a This is a diagram showing protrusions formed on the belt according to an embodiment. Figure 15b This illustrates the state in which the cable is attached to the housing according to an embodiment. Figure 15a A cross-sectional view of a portion of section F-F'.

[0161] Reference Figure 15a and Figure 15bWhen the belt 450 is attached to the housing 410, the protrusions (e.g., 51, 52, 53, 54, 55 and 56) formed on the belt 450 in the embodiment can compensate for the tolerance between the belt 450 and the housing 410 and prevent the belt 450 from moving or moving undesirably within the housing 410.

[0162] Reference Figure 15a Protrusions 51 and 52 may be formed on the surface of one end of the band 450 facing the housing 410 in the embodiment. For example, on the surface of one end of the band 450 facing the housing 410, a first protrusion 51 may be formed between the second protrusion guide 453-2 and the attachment portion 452, and a second protrusion 52 may be formed between the first protrusion guide 453-1 and the attachment portion 452.

[0163] Protrusions 53, 54, 55, and 56 may be formed at the edge portion of one end of the band 450 in the embodiment. For example, at the curved edge portion of the face of one end of the band 450 facing the housing 410, the third protrusion 53 and the fourth protrusion 54 may be formed with an attachment portion 452 located therebetween. For example, at the curved edge portion of the face of one end of the band 450 facing the housing 410, the fifth protrusion 55 and the sixth protrusion 56 may be formed with an attachment portion 452 located therebetween.

[0164] According to an embodiment, the first protrusion 51, the third protrusion 53, and the fifth protrusion 55 may be arranged to at least partially overlap each other. According to an embodiment, the second protrusion 52, the fourth protrusion 54, and the sixth protrusion 56 may be arranged to at least partially overlap each other.

[0165] Reference Figure 15b When the strap 450 of the embodiment is attached to the housing 410, the second protrusion 52 can come into close contact with the sidewall 412-1 of the cavity 412 of the housing 410. According to the embodiment, the second protrusion 52 can be formed using an elastic material. According to the embodiment, when the strap 450 is attached to the housing 410, the second protrusion 52 can apply an elastic force toward the sidewall 412-1 of the cavity 412 and compensate for the tolerance 61 or gap between the sidewall 412-1 of the cavity 412 and the strap 450. Additionally, it can prevent the strap 450 from moving within the housing 410.

[0166] According to an embodiment, when the strap 450 is attached to the housing 410, the fourth protrusion 54 may be formed to partially overlap with a wall 63 extending from the portion of the sidewall 412-1 of the cavity 412 of the housing 410 closer to the back of the electronic device 400. Additionally, according to an embodiment, when the strap 450 is attached to the housing 410, the sixth protrusion 56 may be formed to partially overlap with a wall 65 extending from the portion of the sidewall 412-1 of the cavity 412 of the housing 410 closer to the front of the electronic device 400. Here, walls 412-1, 63, and 65 can help define the cavity of the housing 410. According to an embodiment, the fourth protrusion 54 and the sixth protrusion 56 may be formed using a resilient material. Therefore, when the strap 450 is attached to the housing 410, the fourth protrusion 54 and the sixth protrusion 56 can compensate for tolerances or gaps between the edge portion of one end of the strap 450 and the walls 63 and 65 of the cavity 412 of the housing 410. Additionally, movement of the belt 450 within the housing 410 can be prevented. Here, tolerances or clearances can be defined between the facing surfaces of the housing 410 and the belt 450, such as the inner surface of the housing 410 defining a cavity and the outer surface of the belt 450 facing the inner surface of the housing 410.

[0167] According to an embodiment, the degree to which the fourth protrusion 54 overlaps with the wall 63 of the cavity 412 is greater than the degree to which the sixth protrusion 56 overlaps with the wall 65 of the cavity 412. Therefore, when the strap 450 is attached to the housing 410, the hook member 420-2 can be more stably attached to the attachment portion 452.

[0168] Figure 16 This is a diagram illustrating the main magnet arranged in the housing and the belt magnet arranged in the belt according to an embodiment.

[0169] Reference Figure 16 According to an embodiment, main magnets 441-1 and 441-2 may be arranged in the housing 410, and charged magnets 454-1 and 454-2 may be arranged in the strip 450, wherein when the strip 450 is attached to the housing 410, an attractive force due to magnetic force is applied between the main magnets 441-1 and 441-2 of the housing 410 and the charged magnets 454-1 and 454-2 of the strip 450. For example, at least one of the main magnets 441-1 and 441-2 and the charged magnets 454-1 and 454-2 of the strip 450 may comprise a magnetic material having a magnetic force of about 1800 Gauss or greater.

[0170] According to the embodiment, the first main magnet 441-1 and the second main magnet 441-2 can be arranged in the portion of the housing 410 adjacent to the cavity 412. Additionally, the first main magnet 441-1 can be arranged between the first recess 412-2 and the button member 420-1, and the second main magnet 441-2 can be arranged between the second recess 412-3 and the button member 420-1.

[0171] According to an embodiment, when the strap 450 is attached to the housing 410, the magnets 454-1 and 454-2 can be arranged at one end of the strap 450 at positions corresponding to the main magnets 441-1 and 441-2. For example, in the strap adapter 451, the first magnet 454-1 can be arranged between the first protruding guide 453-1 and the attachment portion 452, and the second magnet 454-2 can be arranged between the second protruding guide 453-2 and the attachment portion 452.

[0172] According to the embodiment, the main magnets 441-1 and 441-2 and the strip magnets 454-1 and 454-2 can aid in the alignment between the strip 450 and the housing 410 when the strip 450 is fastened to the housing 410, and can improve the user's guidance in fastening the strip 450. For example, the main magnets 441-1 and 441-2 and the strip magnets 454-1 and 454-2 can provide, for example, a clicking sound when the strip 450 is fastened to the housing 410, and can enhance the user experience.

[0174] Reference Figure 17 The second main magnet 441-2 can be arranged inside the housing 410, and the second magnet 454-2 can be arranged inside the adapter 451. Furthermore, when viewed from the side of the electronic device 400, the second main magnet 441-2 can be at least partially stacked with the second magnet 454-2.

[0175] Figure 18a and Figure 18b This is a diagram illustrating an example of a main magnet and a magnetized body arranged in an electronic device according to an embodiment.

[0176] Reference Figure 18a and Figure 18b In this embodiment, the first main magnet 441-1 and the second main magnet 441-2 can be inserted and arranged in the housing 410, and the first magnet 454-1 and the second magnet 454-2 can be inserted and arranged in the adapter 451.

[0177] Figures 19a to 19c This is a diagram illustrating an example of a magnet arranged in a belt adapter according to an embodiment.

[0178] Reference Figure 19aIn this embodiment, the first magnet 454-1 and the second magnet 454-2 can be inserted into the recesses 71 and 72 formed in the adapter 451, respectively. For example, the first magnet 454-1 and the second magnet 454-2 can be attached to the recesses 71 and 72 formed in the adapter 451 by engagement.

[0179] According to an embodiment, after forming the belt 450 including the adapter 451 and the belt body 455 by insert injection molding, the first magnet 454-1 and the second magnet 454-2 can be inserted into the recesses 71 and 72, respectively. Therefore, the magnetism of the first magnet 454-1 and the second magnet 454-2 can be prevented from being thermally removed during the formation of the belt 450.

[0180] Reference Figure 19b In this embodiment, the first magnet 454-1 and the second magnet 454-2 can be fitted into slots 73 and 74 formed in the face of the adapter 451 facing the housing 410. For example, the first magnet 454-1 and the second magnet 454-2 can be attached to the slots 73 and 74 by engagement, respectively.

[0181] According to an embodiment, after the strip 450, including an adapter 451 and a strip body 455, is formed by insert injection molding, the first magnet 454-1 and the second magnet 454-2 can be respectively fitted into the grooves 73 and 74 by engagement. Therefore, the magnetism of the first magnet 454-1 and the second magnet 454-2 can be prevented from being thermally removed during the formation of the strip 450.

[0182] Reference Figure 19c In this embodiment, multiple magnets 80, 81, 82, and 83 may be spaced apart from each other and attached to the surface of the adapter 451 facing the housing 410. For example, when the strap 450 is attached to the housing 410, a main magnet (not shown) may be arranged in the housing 410 at a position corresponding to the multiple magnets 80, 81, 82, and 83. For example, the multiple magnets 80, 81, 82, and 83 may each be attached to the surface of the adapter 451 facing the housing 410 by engagement.

[0183] According to an embodiment, after the strip 450, including an adapter 451 and a strip body 455, is formed by insert injection molding, a plurality of magnets 80, 81, 82, and 83 may each be disposed on the surface of the adapter 451 facing the housing 410. Therefore, the magnetism of the plurality of magnets 80, 81, 82, and 83 can be prevented from being thermally removed during the formation of the strip 450.

[0184] Figure 20 This is a diagram illustrating the arrangement of the main magnet and the magnetized body according to an embodiment.

[0185] Reference Figure 20 In the embodiment, magnets 454-1 and 454-2 can be arranged in protruding guides 453-1 and 453-2 with adapter 451, and main magnets 441-1 and 441-2 can be arranged at positions adjacent to recesses 412-2 and 412-3 in housing 410.

[0186] For example, a first magnet 454-1 may be arranged within a first protruding guide 453-1 with an adapter 451, and a second magnet 454-2 may be arranged within a second protruding guide 453-2 with an adapter 451.

[0187] Alternatively, for example, the first main magnet 441-1 may be arranged at a position adjacent to the first recess 412-1 in the housing 410, and the second main magnet 441-2 may be arranged at a position adjacent to the second recess 412-2 in the housing 410.

[0188] Figure 21a and Figure 21b This is a diagram showing an integrally formed fastening member according to an embodiment. Figure 21a and Figure 21b These are perspective views of the +x and -x directions of the fastening member 520, respectively.

[0189] Reference Figure 21a and Figure 21b The integrally formed fastening member 520 of the embodiment may include a button portion 522, a hook portion 524, at least one groove portion 526, and a groove 528 forming a single continuous body of the fastening member 520. For example, button member 420-1 and hook member 420-2 may be integrally formed and form the fastening member 520, with the button portion 522 corresponding to button member 420-1 and the hook portion 524 corresponding to hook member 420-2. According to the embodiment, when the integrally formed fastening member 520 is arranged in the cavity 412 of the housing 410, the button portion 522 may be formed to extend from the hook portion 524 toward the rear direction of the electronic device 400.

[0190] At least one spring (not shown) may be arranged in at least one groove 526 of the spring groove in the embodiment. When the fastening member 520 is arranged in the cavity 412, the groove 528 of the embodiment may be supported by the locking member 530, which will be described later.

[0191] Figure 22 This is a diagram illustrating an example of a recess formed in the sidewall of the cavity according to an embodiment.

[0192] Reference Figure 22The mounting portion 412-8 may be formed in the side wall 412-1 of the cavity 412 of the housing 410 in the embodiment. A locking member 530, which will be described later for supporting the fastening member 520 arranged within the cavity 412, will be disposed in the mounting portion 412-8. For example, the mounting portion 412-8 may be formed in the side wall 412-1 of the cavity 412, located below the opening 414. For example, the mounting portion 412-8 may be formed in the central portion of the side wall 412-1 of the cavity 412. For example, the mounting portion 412-8 may be formed as a groove having a depth corresponding to the thickness of the locking member 530, which will be described later.

[0193] Figure 23 This is a diagram illustrating an example of a locking component according to an embodiment.

[0194] Reference Figure 23 The locking member 530 disposed in the mounting portion 412-8 formed in the sidewall 412-1 of the cavity 412 in the embodiment may include a suspension portion 532. The suspension portion 532 prevents the fastening member 520 inserted into the cavity 412 through the opening 414 from being separated from the outside of the housing 410 through the opening 414. The locking member 530 of the embodiment may be fixed to the mounting portion 412-8. For example, the locking member 530 may be fixed to the mounting portion 412-8 by welding or by adhesive material, but is not limited thereto. For example, the mounting portion 412-8 formed in the cavity 412 of the housing 410 may include a metallic material.

[0195] According to an embodiment, the locking member 530 may be formed using an elastic material. For example, the locking member 530 may be formed using a material such as metal (e.g., stainless steel). During the process of assembling the fastening member 520 into the housing 410 using elastic force, the suspension portion 532 may bend toward the interior of the electronic device 400, while providing space for the fastening member 520 to be inserted into the housing 410. After the fastening member 520 is inserted into the housing 410, the protruding shape of the suspension portion 532 may return to its original shape and be held in place by one face of the fastening member 520, preventing the fastening member 520 from separating from the housing 410.

[0196] Figure 24 This is a diagram illustrating an example of a locking member disposed on a mounting portion formed in the sidewall of a cavity, according to an embodiment.

[0197] According to an embodiment, the locking member 530 may be disposed in the mounting portion 412-8 of the side wall 412-1 of the cavity 412. According to an embodiment, the locking member 530 may be disposed in the central portion of the side wall 412-1 of the cavity 412. According to an embodiment, the suspension portion 532 of the locking member 530 may be attached to the side wall 412-1 of the cavity 412 and face the front direction (e.g., +z direction) of the electronic device 400.

[0198] Figure 25 This is a diagram illustrating an example of an integral fastening member inserted into a cavity where a locking member is arranged, according to an embodiment.

[0199] Reference Figure 25 In this embodiment, the integrated fastening member 520 can be inserted into the cavity 412 through the opening 414 of the housing 410. For example, the integrated fastening member 520 can be inserted through the opening 414 of the housing 410 in an insertion direction toward the front of the electronic device 400 (e.g., the +z direction), such as... Figure 25 As indicated by the upward arrow in the diagram. For example, the groove 528 of the fastening member 520 may be supported by the suspension portion 532 of the locking member 530 provided on the side wall 412-1 of the cavity 412. In addition, at least one spring 62 may be arranged in at least one groove 526 of the fastening member 520.

[0200] Figures 26a to 26c This is a diagram illustrating the process of inserting an integral fastening member into a cavity where a locking member is arranged, according to an embodiment.

[0201] Reference Figure 26a In this embodiment, the fastening member 520 can move in the forward direction (e.g., +z direction) of the electronic device 400 through the opening 414 of the housing 410, and is inserted into the housing 410 in the insertion direction. When the fastening member 520 is inserted into the housing 410, the suspension portion 532 of the locking member 530 can be pushed into the interior of the electronic device 400 by the movement of the fastening member 520 along the locking member 530 in the insertion direction. For example, Figure 26a It shows a ratio Figure 26b The suspension part 532 is located closer to the inner wall of the housing 410.

[0202] Reference Figure 26b When the fastening member 520 in the embodiment is more than Figure 26a When the locking member 530 is inserted deeper into the housing 410, the suspension portion 532 of the locking member 530 can be engaged by the groove 528 of the fastening member 520. The suspension portion 532 of the locking member 530 can remain in contact with the groove 528 while applying an elastic force to the groove 528 of the fastening member 520. Therefore, the suspension portion 532 of the locking member 530 can support the fastening member 420, wherein the fastening member 520 is not separated from the outside of the housing 410 through the opening 414 (e.g., movement in the direction opposite to the insertion direction is restricted). According to the embodiment, since the locking member 530 prevents the fastening member 520 from being separated from the outside of the housing 410 through the opening 414, the fastening member 520 can be secured within the housing 410 without the use of a separate bracket (e.g., 430).

[0203] Reference Figure 26c After the suspension portion 532 of the locking member 530 in the embodiment is engaged by the groove 528 of the fastening member 520, the rear plate 460 may be disposed on the portion of the fastening member 520 that is not inserted into the housing 410. The rear plate 460 may be arranged in the housing 410 and cover the portion of the fastening member 520 that is not inserted into the housing 410.

[0204] Figures 27a to 27c This is a diagram illustrating the process of attaching a band to a fastening member according to an embodiment.

[0205] Reference Figure 27a With the fastening member 520 arranged in the housing 410 of the embodiment, the attachment portion 452 of the belt 450 can move toward the fastening member 520 and be inserted into the interior of the housing 410.

[0206] Reference Figure 27b The inclined surface 92 of the hook structure of the fastening member 520 arranged in the housing 410 of the embodiment can contact the inclined surface 90 of the attachment portion 452 of the belt 450. The inclined surface 90 of the attachment portion 452 of the belt 450 can apply a force to the inclined surface 92 of the hook structure of the hook portion 524 of the fastening member 520 arranged in the housing 410, and the fastening member 520 can move in the forward direction (e.g., +z direction) of the electronic device 400 by the force applied to the inclined surface 92. For example, the inclined surface 90 can apply a force greater than the elastic force of the spring 62 to the inclined surface 92, and move the fastening member 520 in the forward direction (e.g., +z direction) of the electronic device 400 and compress the spring 62.

[0207] Reference Figure 27c When the attachment portion 452 of the strap 450 in the embodiment is further inserted into the housing 410, the attachment portion 452 of the strap 450 can be attached to the hook portion 524 of the fastening member 520 arranged in the housing 410. Here, when the inclined surface 90 of the attachment portion 452 of the strap 450 moves further inside the cavity than the inclined surface 92 of the hook structure of the hook portion 524 of the fastening member 520 arranged in the housing 410, since the force applied by the inclined surface 90 is less than the elastic force of the spring 62, the fastening member 520 can move toward the rear direction (e.g., the -z direction) of the electronic device 400 by the deviation force applied from the spring 62. When the fastening member 520 moves toward the rear direction (e.g., the -z direction) of the electronic device 400, the spring 62 is not compressed, and the two hooks defining the inclined surfaces 90 and 92 respectively overlap each other in the x direction.

[0209] Reference Figure 28aAn airbag 459 may be formed in the belt body 455 of the belt 450 in the embodiment at a position adjacent to the belt adapter 451. The airbag 459 may be formed in the belt body 455 along the belt adapter 451 at a position adjacent to the belt adapter 451.

[0210] Figure 28b It is shown Figure 28a The cross-sectional view of section H-H'.

[0211] Reference Figure 28b In this embodiment, the airbag 459 can be formed as a sunken structure. Due to the airbag 459, the thickness of the portion of the main body 455 in which the airbag 459 is formed can be less than the thickness of other portions of the main body 455. The airbag 459 can be an empty space or an empty gap.

[0212] For example, an airbag 459 may be formed in a portion of the band body 455 where the curvature is greater than a preset level, thereby increasing the flexibility of the band 450 and allowing the band 450 to adhere to the body, such as the human body, when the user wears the electronic device on the human body.

[0217] For example, a PD may include four PDs. For example, a PD may include two normal PDs and two green PDs. However, the type and number of PDs included in a PD are not limited to this.

[0218] According to an embodiment, the biometric sensor module 411 may be disposed on a PCB. In this case, for example, the PCB may be formed as a six-layer structure and may have a thickness of approximately 0.38T. Furthermore, for example, the PCB may include an electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM) and may support light intensity calibration.

[0219] According to an embodiment, the rear panel 460 may include a first portion 460-1 and a second portion 460-2. According to an embodiment, the first portion 460-1 of the rear panel 460 may be arranged at a position corresponding to the biometric sensor module 411, and at least some of the plurality of LEDs and plurality of PDs included in the biometric sensor module 411 may be shown from the outside of the electronic device 400 through the first portion 460-1 of the rear panel 460. For example, the first portion 460-1 of the rear panel 460 may be made of glass, but is not limited thereto.

[0220] According to an embodiment, the second portion 460-2 of the rear plate 460 may be arranged around the edge of the first portion 460-1 of the rear plate 460. Figures 29a to 29f The rear panel 460 has been described as having a first part 460-1 and a second part 460-2 as separate components, but is not limited thereto. The first part 460-1 and the second part 460-2 of the rear panel 460 may also be formed as a single integral component.

[0221] Reference Figure 29d and Figure 29f In this embodiment, the first portion 460-1 of the rear plate 460 of the electronic device 400 may be formed to have a predetermined curvature. The first portion 460-1 of the rear plate 460 of the electronic device 400 may be formed to protrude further toward the back of the electronic device 400 than the second portion 460-2 of the rear plate 460. For example, the rear plate 460 may be formed to have a curvature range of about 45R to about 65R, and preferably has a curvature of about 50R. In addition, for example, the rear plate 460 may protrude toward the back of the electronic device 400 by a protrusion level of about 1.5 mm to about 3.5 mm, and preferably by a protrusion level of about 2.5 mm.

[0222] Figure 29g This is a diagram illustrating an example of how a curved backplate of an electronic device ensures the adhesive force exerted by the electronic device on the human body and the stability of the electronic device, according to an embodiment.

[0223] Reference Figure 29g When the curvature of the back plate 460 of the electronic device 400 in the embodiment is about 50R, for example, the electronic device 400 can be adhered to the user's body with a force of about 1.5 Newtons (N) to about 2.0N. Therefore, the electronic device 400 can be stably worn on the user's body without causing discomfort (e.g., pain, pressure) due to pressure on the user's skin.

[0224] For example, when the curvature of the back plate 460 of the electronic device 400 in the embodiment is about 50R, the electronic device 400 can have a relative displacement change of about 0.6 mm to about 0.7 mm in the Y direction. Therefore, the electronic device 400 can be worn more stably on the user's body, and thus the electronic device 400 can stably perform sensing operations and acquire biometric information.

[0225] Figure 29h This is a diagram illustrating the deviation of biometric signals measured multiple times by an electronic device including a back plate with curvature, according to an embodiment.

[0226] Reference Figure 29h When the curvature of the rear plate 460 of the electronic device 400 is approximately 50R, the biometric signals captured multiple times (e.g., heart rate variability) can have relatively small biases. For example, when the curvature of the rear plate 460 of the electronic device 400 is approximately 50R, the mean error (MAE) can be approximately 1.84 bpm, which is lower than when the curvature is approximately 114R. Additionally, for example, when the curvature of the rear plate 460 of the electronic device 400 is approximately 50R, the standard deviation can be approximately 1.10 bpm, which is lower than when the curvature is approximately 114R. Furthermore, for example, when the curvature of the rear plate 460 of the electronic device 400 is approximately 50R, the throughput can be approximately 97.6%, which is higher than when the curvature is approximately 114R. Therefore, when measuring biometric signals using an electronic device including a rear plate with curvature, biometric signals can be measured more stably.

[0227] According to an embodiment, the back plate 460 can reduce the radius of curvature (R) of the first portion 460-1 and provide sufficient adhesion between the electronic device 400 and the user's body when the electronic device 400 is worn on the user's body. For example, when the strap 450 of the electronic device 400 is fastened to the electronic device 400 without lugs, the electronic device 400 may not provide sufficient adhesion to the user's body compared to when the strap 450 is fastened through lugs of the housing 410. However, the electronic device 400 of the embodiment includes a back plate 460 with a predetermined curvature, thereby providing sufficient adhesion to the user's body without causing discomfort, even when the strap 450 is located outside the housing 410.

[0228] Additionally, for example, due to the protrusion of the first portion 460-1 of the rear plate 460, the first portion 460-1 of the rear plate 460 can penetrate further into the user's skin and adhere tightly to the user's skin. Therefore, the gap space between the LED and PD of the biometric sensor module 411 and the user's body can be eliminated, and the accuracy of biometric signal measurement of the electronic device 400 can be improved.

[0229] Figure 30 This is a block diagram illustrating an electronic device 2901 in a network environment 2900 according to various embodiments. (Refer to...) Figure 30 In network environment 2900, electronic device 2901 can communicate with electronic device 2902 via a first network 2998 (e.g., a short-range wireless communication network), or with at least one of electronic device 2904 or server 2908 via a second network 2999 (e.g., a long-range wireless communication network).

For example, when electronic device 2901 includes a main processor 2921 and a coprocessor 2923, the coprocessor 2923 may be adapted to consume less power than the main processor 2921, or adapted to be dedicated to a specific function. The coprocessor 2923 may be implemented separately from the main processor 2921, or may be implemented as part of the main processor 2921.

[0231] When the main processor 2921 is inactive (e.g., in sleep mode), the coprocessor 2923 (rather than the main processor 2921) can control at least some of the functions or states associated with at least one component of the electronic device 2901 (e.g., display module 2960, sensor module 2976, or communication module 2990). Alternatively, when the main processor 2921 is active (e.g., running an application), the coprocessor 2923 can work with the main processor 2921 to control at least some of the functions or states associated with at least one component of the electronic device 2901 (e.g., display module 2960, sensor module 2976, or communication module 2990).

According to embodiments, the coprocessor 2923 (e.g., a neural processing unit) can include hardware architectures dedicated to artificial intelligence model processing.

Communication module 2990 may include one or more communication processors capable of operating independently of processor 2920 (e.g., application processor (AP)) and support direct (e.g., wired) or wireless communication. According to embodiments, communication module 2990 may include wireless communication module 2992 (e.g., cellular communication module, short-range wireless communication module, or Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) communication module) or wired communication module 2994 (e.g., local area network (LAN) communication module or power line communication (PLC) module). One of these communication modules can communicate with an external electronic device via a first network 2998 (e.g., a short-range communication network such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi Direct, or Infrared Data Association (IrDA)) or a second network 2999 (e.g., a long-range communication network such as a traditional cellular network, 5G network, next-generation communication network, the Internet, or a computer network (e.g., a LAN or a wide area network (WAN))). These various types of communication modules can be implemented as a single component (e.g., a single chip) or as multiple components separate from each other (e.g., multiple chips). The wireless communication module 2992 can identify or verify the electronic device 2901 in the communication network (such as the first network 2998 or the second network 2999) using user information (e.g., the International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI)) stored in the user identification module 2996.

[0246] Wireless communication module 2992 can support 5G networks following 4G networks and next-generation communication technologies (such as new radio (NR) access technologies). NR access technologies can support enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB), massive machine-type communication (mMTC), or ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC). Wireless communication module 2992 can support high-frequency bands (e.g., millimeter-wave bands) to achieve, for example, high data transmission rates. Wireless communication module 2992 can support various technologies used to ensure performance in high-frequency bands, such as, for example, beamforming, massive MIMO, full-dimensional MIMO (FD-MIMO), array antennas, analog beamforming, or massive antennas. Wireless communication module 2992 can support various requirements specified in electronic device 2901, external electronic device (e.g., electronic device 2904), or network system (e.g., second network 2999). According to an embodiment, the wireless communication module 2992 may support peak data rates (e.g., 20 Gbps or greater) for implementing eMBB, lost coverage (e.g., 164 dB or less) for implementing mMTC, or U-plane latency (e.g., 0.5 ms or less for each of the downlink (DL) and uplink (UL), or 1 ms or less round trip) for implementing URLLC.

[0247] Antenna module 2997 can transmit or receive signals or power to or from the exterior of electronic device 2901 (e.g., external electronic device). According to an embodiment, antenna module 2997 may include an antenna comprising a radiating element formed of conductive material or conductive patterns formed in or on a substrate (e.g., a printed circuit board (PCB)). According to an embodiment, antenna module 2997 may include multiple antennas (e.g., an array antenna). In this case, at least one antenna suitable for a communication scheme used in a communication network (such as a first network 2998 or a second network 2999) can be selected from the multiple antennas by, for example, communication module 2990 (e.g., wireless communication module 2992). Signals or power can then be transmitted or received between communication module 2990 and the external electronic device via the selected at least one antenna. According to an embodiment, additional components besides the radiating element (e.g., a radio frequency integrated circuit (RFIC)) may be further formed as part of antenna module 2997.

[0248] According to various embodiments, antenna module 2997 can form a millimeter-wave antenna module. According to embodiments, the millimeter-wave antenna module may include a printed circuit board, an RFIC, and multiple antennas (e.g., an array antenna), wherein the RFIC is disposed on or adjacent to a first surface (e.g., a bottom surface) of the printed circuit board and is capable of supporting a specified high-frequency band (e.g., a millimeter-wave band), and the multiple antennas are disposed on or adjacent to a second surface (e.g., a top surface or a side surface) of the printed circuit board and are capable of transmitting or receiving signals in the specified high-frequency band.

[0249] At least some of the aforementioned components can be combined with each other and exchange signals (e.g., commands or data) between them via inter-peripheral communication schemes (e.g., bus, general purpose input / output (GPIO), serial peripheral interface (SPI), or mobile industrial processor interface (MIPI)).

[0250] According to an embodiment, commands or data can be sent or received between electronic device 2901 and external electronic device 2904 via server 2908 connected to a second network 2999. Each of electronic device 2902 or electronic device 2904 can be a device of the same type as electronic device 2901, or a device of a different type. According to an embodiment, all or some operations that would be performed on electronic device 2901 can be performed on one or more of external electronic devices 2902, external electronic devices 2904, or server 2908. For example, if electronic device 2901 is required to automatically perform a function or service, or is required to perform a function or service in response to a request from a user or another device, electronic device 2901 may request one or more external electronic devices to perform at least a portion of the function or service, instead of running the function or service, or electronic device 2901 may request one or more external electronic devices to perform at least a portion of the function or service in addition to running the function or service. Upon receiving the request, one or more external electronic devices may perform at least a portion of the requested function or service, or perform additional functions or services related to the request, and transmit the result of the execution to electronic device 2901. Electronic device 2901 may provide the result as at least a partial response to the request, with or without further processing. For this purpose, technologies such as cloud computing, distributed computing, mobile edge computing (MEC), or client-server computing may be used. Electronic device 2901 may use, for example, distributed computing or mobile edge computing to provide ultra-low latency services. In another embodiment, external electronic device 2904 may include an Internet of Things (IoT) device. Server 2908 may be an intelligent server using machine learning and / or neural networks. According to an embodiment, external electronic device 2904 or server 2908 may be included in a second network 2999. Electronic device 2901 may be applied to intelligent services based on 5G communication technology or IoT-related technologies (e.g., smart homes, smart cities, smart cars, or healthcare).

[0251] The electronic device according to the various embodiments can be one of a variety of types of electronic devices. The electronic device may include, for example, a portable communication device (e.g., a smartphone), a computer device, a portable multimedia device, a portable medical device, a camera, a wearable device, or a home appliance. According to embodiments of this disclosure, the electronic device is not limited to the electronic devices described above.

[0252] It should be understood that the various embodiments of this disclosure and the terminology used therein are not intended to limit the technical features set forth herein to the specific embodiments, but rather to include various changes, equivalents, or substitutions to the respective embodiments. In the description of the drawings, similar reference numerals may be used to refer to similar or related elements.

[0253] It will be understood that, unless the relevant context explicitly indicates otherwise, the singular form of the noun corresponding to an item may include one or more things. As used herein, each of the phrases such as “A or B,” “at least one of A and B,” “at least one of A or B,” “A, B or C,” “at least one of A, B and C,” and “at least one of A, B or C” may include any one or all possible combinations of the items listed together in the corresponding phrase among the plurality of phrases.

[0254] As used herein, terms such as “first” and “second” or “first” and “second” may be used only to distinguish the respective components from one another and do not limit the components in any other respect (e.g., importance or order).

[0255] It will be understood that if, when the terms “operational location” or “communication location” are used, or when the terms “operational location” or “communication location” are not used, an element (e.g., a first element) is referred to as “combined with another element (e.g., a second element),” “combined to another element (e.g., a second element),” “connected to another element (e.g., a second element),” or “attached to another element (e.g., a second element),” it means that the first element can be directly (e.g., wiredly) combined with the second element, wirelessly combined with the second element, or combined with the second element via a third element.

[0256] What will be understood is that when an element is referred to as being related to another element, such as "on" another element, it may be directly on the other element, or there may be an intermediate element between them. Conversely, when an element is referred to as being related to another element, such as "directly on" another element, there is no intermediate element.

[0257] As used herein, the term “and / or” includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items. It will be further understood that, when used in this specification, the terms “comprising” and / or “including” or “having” and / or “containing” specify the presence of the stated features, areas, integers, steps, operations, elements, and / or components, but do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, areas, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, and / or groups thereof.

[0258] Furthermore, relative terms such as “lower” or “bottom” and “upper” or “top” are used herein to describe the relationship between one element and another, as shown in the accompanying drawings. It will be understood that, in addition to the orientations depicted in the drawings, the relative terms are intended to cover different orientations of the device. For example, if a device in one of the drawings is flipped, an element described as being “below” the other element will then be oriented “above” the other element. Thus, the exemplary term “lower” can therefore cover both the “lower” and “upper” orientations depending on the specific orientation of the drawing. Similarly, if a device in one of the drawings is flipped, an element described as being “below” or “under” the other element will then be oriented “above” the other element. Thus, the exemplary term “below” or “under” can include both the upper and lower orientations.

[0259] As used herein, “about” or “approximately” includes the stated value and indicates an acceptable deviation from the specific value as determined by a person skilled in the art, taking into account the measurement in question and the errors associated with the measurement of the specific quantity (i.e., limitations of the measurement system). For example, “about” may mean within one or more standard deviations, or within ±30%, ±20%, ±10%, or ±5% of the stated value.

[0260] Unless otherwise defined, all terms used herein (including technical and scientific terms) shall have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure pertains. It will be further understood that terms such as those defined in common dictionaries shall be interpreted as having the same meaning as they have in the relevant field and in the context of this disclosure, and shall not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense unless expressly defined herein.

[0261] As used in conjunction with various embodiments of this disclosure, the term "module" may include a unit implemented in hardware, software, or firmware, and may be used interchangeably with other terms (e.g., "logic," "logic block," "part," or "circuit"). A module may be a single integrated component adapted to perform one or more functions, or the smallest unit or part of such a single integrated component. For example, according to embodiments, a module may be implemented in the form of an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC).

[0262] The various embodiments set forth herein can be implemented as software (e.g., program 2940) including one or more instructions readable by a machine (e.g., electronic device 2901) stored in a storage medium (e.g., internal memory 2936 or external memory 2938). For example, under the control of a processor, with or without one or more other components, the processor (e.g., processor 2920) of the machine (e.g., electronic device 2901) can invoke and execute at least one of the one or more instructions stored in the storage medium. This enables the machine to be operated to perform at least one function according to the invoked at least one instruction. The one or more instructions may include code generated by a compiler or code that can be run by an interpreter. Machine-readable storage media may be provided in the form of non-transitory storage media. The term "non-transitory" simply means that the storage medium is a tangible device and does not include signals (e.g., electromagnetic waves), but this term does not distinguish between data being stored semi-permanently in the storage medium and data being temporarily stored in the storage medium.

[0263] According to embodiments, methods according to various embodiments of this disclosure may be included and provided in a computer program product. The computer program product can be traded as a product between a seller and a buyer. The computer program product may be distributed in the form of a machine-readable storage medium (e.g., a compact disc read-only memory (CD-ROM)) or via an app store (e.g., the Play Store). TM The computer program product may be distributed online (e.g., downloaded or uploaded), or may be distributed (e.g., downloaded or uploaded) directly between two user devices (e.g., smartphones). If it is distributed online, at least a portion of the computer program product may be temporarily generated, or at least a portion of the computer program product may be temporarily stored in a machine-readable storage medium (such as the memory of a manufacturer's server, an app store's server, or a relay server).

[0264] According to various embodiments, each of the above components (e.g., a module or program) may include a single entity or multiple entities, and some of the multiple entities may be separately located in different components. According to various embodiments, one or more of the above components may be omitted, or one or more other components may be added. Optionally or additionally, multiple components (e.g., modules or programs) may be integrated into a single component. In such a case, according to various embodiments, the integrated component may still perform the one or more functions of each of the multiple components in the same or similar manner as the corresponding component of the multiple components performed one or more functions prior to integration. According to various embodiments, the operations performed by a module, program, or other component may be performed sequentially, in parallel, repeatedly, or heuristically, or one or more operations may be run in a different order or omitted, or one or more other operations may be added.

[0265] According to an embodiment, electronic device 2901 may correspond to electronic device 100, electronic device 200 and electronic device 400.

[0266] The wearable electronic device 100, 300, or 400 of the embodiments may include: a housing 410 including a first side portion, a second side portion at least partially spaced from the first side portion and including a portion facing the first side portion, and a lateral side portion surrounding the space between the first and second side portions, wherein each of the first and second side portions protrudes outward relative to the lateral side portion and forms a cavity 412; and a hook member 420-2 disposed in the cavity 412 and configured to reciprocate between the first and second side portions along a first direction toward the first side portion and a second direction toward the second side portion.
