Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of smart rings, and specifically to a smart ring. Background Art

[0002] Smart rings are a new type of wearable device that combines fashion and technology to provide users with a convenient and personalized smart experience. Existing smart rings still have problems such as insufficient battery life, rigid design and configuration, and difficulty adapting to the hand sizes of different users. These problems make it difficult to match the product to the right user during the production and sales process, and it is necessary to produce a variety of rings with different inner diameters, which easily leads to production waste. Since the ring does not match the user's hand shape, it is further prone to problems such as insufficient accuracy of the health monitoring algorithm. In terms of wearing comfort, the existing smart ring structure is also difficult to adapt to the needs of different users, and lacks flexibility in design. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the above-mentioned deficiencies in the prior art, the present application provides a smart ring to solve at least one of the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0004] A smart ring includes a first shell, a control module, a power supply assembly and a flexible contact portion. The first shell includes a first contact portion and an upper shell, and the first contact portion and the upper shell are engaged with each other to form an internal space. The power supply assembly, the control module and the sensor assembly are located in the internal space, and the power supply assembly is connected to the control module and the sensor assembly respectively. The sensor assembly is partially exposed relative to the first contact portion.

[0005] In some specific embodiments, the sensor assembly includes an optical sensor, and a through hole is provided on the first contact portion, and the optical sensor is exposed relative to the first contact portion through the through hole. In practical applications, the first contact portion is located on the side of the first shell facing inward, and is used to directly contact the user's finger, so the sensor assembly can directly contact the user's skin through the through hole. By directly approaching the skin of the user's finger, the sensor assembly can monitor the user's health status more accurately.

[0006] Different flexible contact parts are connected to the two ends of the first shell to form an arc structure, which is used to adapt the smart ring to different users. In actual applications, by connecting different flexible contact parts to the two ends of the first shell, the appearance of the ring is a semi-enclosed C-shaped structure. Compared with the traditional fully enclosed O-shaped ring structure, the inner diameter of the C-shaped ring in the present application can be elastically fluctuated within a preset range according to actual needs, which makes the ring of the present application flexibly adapt to the different sizes of fingers of different users and can be more firmly fixed on different fingers within the range.

[0007] In some specific embodiments, a circuit board is also included. The circuit board is arranged around the power supply component, and the control module and the sensor component are located on the circuit board.

[0008] In some specific embodiments, the angle corresponding to the arc structure formed by the flexible contact portion and the first shell is greater than or equal to 270 degrees. In practical applications, by setting the angle corresponding to this arc structure to be greater than or equal to 270 degrees, the ring can be fixed on the user's finger to the greatest extent. In practical applications, the angle corresponding to the arc structure can also be greater than 360 degrees, that is, the flexible contact portions at both ends of the first shell can overlap to a certain extent. When the circumference of the finger of the user wearing the smart ring is greater than the circumference of the inner ring of the ring, the flexible contact portions on both sides of the first shell can be correspondingly enlarged by the user's fingers, and can provide flexible support and fit for the user's fingers. When the circumference of the finger of the user wearing the smart ring is less than the circumference of the inner ring of the ring, the flexible support portions on both sides of the first shell will shrink in accordance with the user's fingers, and the flexible contact portions on both sides of the first shell may overlap on the user's fingers, thereby firmly fixing the ring on the user's fingers.

[0009] In some specific embodiments, the power supply assembly includes a battery and a wireless charging coil connected to each other, and the wireless charging coil is located outside the first contact portion to be close to the external charging structure for wireless charging. In actual applications, the user can perform wireless charging by placing the smart ring on a wireless charging box, charging base or charging pad. In actual applications, the battery in the power supply assembly occupies a large area. The circuit board can specifically be a flexible circuit board. In actual applications, the flexible circuit board can be arranged around the battery to further save the internal space of the first shell.

[0010] In some specific embodiments, charging contacts are also provided on the first shell, and the charging contacts are connected to the power supply assembly for connecting to an external charging structure for wired charging.

[0011] In some specific embodiments, a display structure is further included, and the display structure covers the outward side of the upper shell; the display structure is electrically connected to the power supply component, the control module and the sensor component respectively.

[0012] In some specific embodiments, an NFC module and a wireless communication module are also provided on the circuit board. The NFC (Near Field Communication, a short-range wireless communication technology that allows devices to exchange data in a non-contact state) module and the wireless communication module are respectively connected to the power supply assembly, which can further realize the NFC function and the wireless signal connection with the external smart device for the smart ring, and can effectively increase the use scenarios of the smart ring. In actual applications, when the first shell is covered with a display structure, the NFC module and the wireless communication module can also be connected to the display structure to display the external information on the display structure so that the user can understand the relevant information.

[0013] In some specific embodiments, first engaging members are respectively provided at both ends of the first shell, one end of the flexible contact portion is a smooth contact end, and the other end is provided with a second engaging member that matches the first engaging member. It should be noted that, as long as the first engaging member and the second engaging member can be engaged to achieve a fixed connection between the first shell and the flexible contact portion, the first engaging member and the second engaging member can adopt a variety of different connection structures. For example, the first engaging member can include a protruding plug-in block, or a concave mounting groove.

[0014] In some specific embodiments, the edge of the flexible contact portion is arc-shaped. In practical applications, the closer to the opening, the smaller the thickness of the flexible contact portion; the maximum thickness of the flexible contact portion is consistent with the minimum thickness of the first shell, that is, there is a soft transition in the connection area between the flexible contact portion and the first shell.

[0015] In some specific embodiments, the flexible contact portion includes thermoplastic polyurethane or silicone. It should be noted that as long as the flexible contact portion can be made of an elastic material so that the flexible contact portion can adapt to a variety of different finger sizes of different users during the wearing of the ring, other materials can also be used to make the flexible contact portion.

[0016] In some specific embodiments, the first contact portion is made of a transparent material, and the transparent material includes glue and / or resin, so that the circuit board can be seen from the outside of the first contact portion. In practical applications, by using a transparent material to make the first contact portion, the user can directly observe the circuit board located in the first contact portion through the transparent structure of the first contact portion. In addition to realizing its own function, the circuit board can also play an aesthetic role, thereby increasing the beauty of the ring.

[0017] In some specific embodiments, a decorative piece is further included, the decorative piece covers the outer side of the upper shell, and the decorative piece includes ceramic. In practical applications, as long as the decorative and aesthetic effects can be achieved, other materials or other shapes can also be used as the decorative piece.

[0018] Beneficial effects: The present application provides a smart ring. By forming an internal space in a first shell to place a power supply component and a control module, a user can monitor the user's health status and the like through the built-in sensor component of the smart ring, and the user can more conveniently self-manage various parameters of the user; further, different flexible contact parts are respectively connected to the two ends of the first shell to form an arc structure, so that the appearance of the ring presents a semi-closed C-shaped structure, so that the smart ring can flexibly adapt to the different sizes of fingers of different users, which can further improve the accuracy of health monitoring.

[0038] This embodiment provides a smart ring that can intelligently detect and remind the user's health while being an aesthetic display. The specific scheme is as follows:

[0039] A smart ring includes a first housing 1, a control module 2, a power supply assembly 32 and a flexible contact portion 4. The first housing 1 includes a first contact portion 11 and an upper housing 12, and the first contact portion 11 and the upper housing 12 are engaged with each other to form an internal space. The power supply assembly 32, the control module 2 and the sensor assembly 31 are located in the internal space, and the power supply assembly 32 is connected to the control module 2 and the sensor assembly 31 respectively.

[0040] In some specific embodiments, the sensor assembly 31 includes an optical sensor, and a through hole is provided on the first contact portion 11, and the optical sensor is exposed relative to the first contact portion 11 through the through hole. In actual applications, the first contact portion 11 is located on the side of the first shell 1 facing inward, and is used to directly contact the user's finger, so the sensor assembly 31 can directly contact the user's skin through the through hole. By directly approaching the skin of the user's finger, the sensor assembly 31 can monitor the user's health status more accurately. The relative position relationship of each component structure is as follows: Figure 6 Smart rings in Figure 5 The cross-sectional diagram on the AA line is shown in FIG.

[0041] Different flexible contact parts 4 are respectively connected to the two ends of the first shell 1 to form an arc-shaped structure for adapting the smart ring to different users. In actual applications, by connecting different flexible contact parts 4 to the two ends of the first shell 1, the appearance of the ring is a semi-enclosed C-shaped structure. Compared with the traditional fully enclosed O-shaped ring structure, the inner diameter corresponding to the C-shaped ring in the present application can be elastically fluctuated within a preset range according to actual needs, which makes the ring of the present application flexibly adaptable to the different sizes of fingers of different users, and can be more firmly fixed on different fingers within the size range. Among them, the specific explosion structure schematic diagram is shown as follows. Figure 1-3 shown.

[0042] In some specific embodiments, a circuit board 3 is further included. The circuit board 3 is arranged around the power supply component 32 , and the control module 2 and the sensor component 31 are located on the circuit board 3 .

[0043] In some specific embodiments, the angle corresponding to the arc structure formed by the flexible contact portion 4 and the first shell 1 is greater than or equal to 270 degrees. In actual applications, by setting the angle corresponding to this arc structure to be greater than or equal to 270 degrees, the ring can be fixed on the user's finger to the greatest extent. In actual applications, the angle corresponding to the arc structure can also be greater than 360 degrees, that is, the flexible contact portions 4 at both ends of the first shell 1 can overlap to a certain extent. When the circumference of the finger of the user wearing the smart ring is greater than the circumference of the inner ring of the ring, the flexible contact portions 4 on both sides of the first shell 1 can be correspondingly enlarged by the user's fingers, thereby providing flexible support and fit for the user's fingers. Figure 4 When the circumference of the finger of the user wearing the smart ring is smaller than the circumference of the inner ring of the ring, the flexible support parts on both sides of the first shell 1 will shrink in accordance with the user's finger, and the flexible contact parts 4 on both sides of the first shell 1 may overlap on the user's finger, thereby firmly fixing the ring on the user's finger.

[0044] In some specific embodiments, the power supply assembly 32 includes a battery 321 and a wireless charging coil 322 that are connected to each other.

In practical applications, when the first shell 1 is covered with a display structure 51, the NFC module and the wireless communication module can also be connected to the display structure 51 to display the external information on the display structure 51, so that the user can understand the relevant information.
