[0028] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 , a waterproof housing and a smart wearable device provided in the embodiment of the present application are now described. A smart wearable device provided in the embodiment of the present application is a portable device that is worn directly on the body or integrated into the user's clothes or accessories. The smart wearable device may include but is not limited to a smart watch, a smart bracelet, a smart wristband, etc. For the convenience of explanation, the following takes a smart watch as an example and further describes the present application in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The waterproof housing includes a housing body 1 and a display assembly 2 bonded to the housing body 1, and the display assembly 2 is bonded to the housing body 1 on one side facing the housing body 1. The display assembly 2 can be used to display sports health information such as time, number of steps, heart rate, blood pressure, etc. The display screen can be a liquid crystal display (LCD) or an organic light-emitting diode (OLED), or a display screen based on other display technologies (for example, an electrophoretic display screen, a display screen having a crystalline semiconductor light-emitting diode array on a flexible substrate, etc.). The display screen can be a touch screen display screen including a capacitive touch sensor, a resistive touch sensor or other touch sensor components, or can be a non-touch sensitive display screen.

[0030] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The shell body 1 can be square or circular, and the shape of the display component 2 corresponds to the shell body 1. The connection between the shell body 1 and the display component 2 is provided with an annular pressing fastener 3, which includes a pressing portion 31 and a snapping portion 32. The edge of the display component 2 away from the shell body 1 is concave and abuts against the pressing portion 31. The shell body 1 is provided with a groove 11 corresponding to the snapping portion 32. The snapping portion 32 is fixed in the groove 11, and the connection parts of the shell body 1, the display component 2 and the pressing fastener 3 are bonded. The staff can realize waterproof sealing of the entire shell by applying glue at each connection part. Through the cooperation and bonding of each part of the pressing fastener 3 with the shell body 1 and the display component 2, the bonding of the display component 2 and the shell body 1 cannot be displaced, so that the bonding is tighter; and the bonding part of the display component 2 and the shell body 1 is not directly exposed to the environment; at the same time, the bonding area is increased, which has a better sealing and waterproof effect.

[0031] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4In order to facilitate the bonding of the pressing part 31 and the display assembly 2, the edge of the display assembly 2 away from the shell body 1 is concave to form an abutting surface 21 located on the side and a first sealing surface 22 located on the bottom, and one end of the pressing part 31 abuts against the abutting surface 21. The pressing part 31 is concave on the side facing the shell body 1 to form a first sealing cavity 311 for accommodating glue. After the glue is applied to the first sealing surface 22, the excess glue on the first sealing surface 22 flows into the first sealing cavity 311, so that the pressing part 31 is bonded to the first sealing surface 22 on the side facing the shell body 1, thereby achieving the bonding of the pressing part 31 and the display assembly 2. The thickness of the first sealing cavity 311 is 0.5mm to 1.5mm, and the thickness of the first sealing cavity 311 in the embodiment of the present application is preferably 1mm.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the present application, the height of the pressing part 31 is higher than the display component 2. In order to prevent the pressing part 31 from blocking the content displayed by the display component 2, a slope 312 is provided on the side of the pressing part 31 away from the shell body 1. The bottom end of the slope 312 is in the same horizontal plane as the display component 2, so that the display component 2 can present the content normally and improve the aesthetics of the product.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As a specific embodiment of the waterproof housing provided in the present application, a sealing wall 33 is formed between the pressing part 31 and the buckling part 32. In this embodiment, one side of the groove 11 is in the same plane as the side of the display component 2, and the sealing wall 33 is bonded to the side wall of the display component 2 and the side wall of the groove 11 respectively. A second sealing cavity 313 for accommodating glue is formed between the groove 11 and the buckling part 32. The thickness of the second sealing cavity 313 is 0.5mm to 1mm. In the present application, the thickness of the second sealing cavity 313 is preferably 0.7mm.

[0034] Reference Figure 3 In order to facilitate the installation of the buckle part 32 and the groove 11, a guide part 111 is provided on the outer wall of the groove 11 away from the display assembly 2. The buckle part 32 can be installed in the groove 11 by pressing the guide part 111 toward the bottom of the groove 11. The gap formed by the guide part 111 and the buckle part 32 is connected to the second sealing cavity 313, which prevents the glue from overflowing the groove 11.

[0035] Reference Figure 1The present application also provides a smart wearable device, taking a smart watch as an example, the smart wearable device includes a watch strap and the above-mentioned waterproof shell, the strap body 4 is hinged to the waterproof shell, and the watch strap includes a first connecting belt connected to one end of the shell body 1 and a second connecting belt connected to the other end of the shell body 1. When worn, the first connecting belt and the second connecting belt are wrapped around the user's wrist together, and the first connecting belt and the second connecting belt are connected to fix the shell body 1 on the user's wrist to achieve wearing.

[0036] The implementation principle of a waterproof shell and a smart wearable device in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: the pressing part 31 and the buckling part 32 press the connection between the shell body 1 and the display component 2 on the inner side of the buckle 3, so that the bonding between the display component 2 and the shell body 1 cannot be displaced, thereby making the bonding tighter; and the bonding part between the display component 2 and the shell body 1 is not directly exposed to the environment, thereby enhancing the waterproof sealing performance of the entire shell. At the same time, through the bonding setting of the first sealing cavity, the sealing wall 33 and the second sealing cavity 313, the overall bonding area is increased, the bonding stability is improved, and the sealing and waterproof effect of the smart wearable device is further improved.

[0037] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
