[0036] First embodiment
[0037] First see Figure 1 The utility model provides a watch connector 10, which is installed on a belt body 21. The belt body 21 is fixed to a dial 31 through the watch connector 10. When a user connects the belt body 21 to the dial 31, the watch can be worn on the user's wrist, which is convenient for the user to carry.
[0038] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The watch connector 10 includes a mounting block 100, a connecting member 200 and a connecting block 300. The mounting block 100 is used to connect to the dial 31 of the watch 30. The opposite ends of the connecting member 200 are respectively connected to the mounting block 100 and the connecting block 300. The connecting block 300 is used to connect to the strap 21 of the watch 30. The connecting member 200 is rotatably connected to the mounting block 100 via a first rotating shaft 400. The connecting block 300 is rotatably connected to one end of the connecting member 200 away from the mounting block 100 via a second rotating shaft 500. The second rotating shaft 500 is parallel to the first rotating shaft 400.
[0039] To summarize, in the present application, the watch connector 10 includes a mounting block 100, a connecting member 200 and a connecting block 300. The connecting member 200 is rotatably connected to the mounting block 100 via a first rotating shaft 400, and the connecting block 300 is rotatably connected to the connecting member 200 via a second rotating shaft 500. The second rotating shaft 500 is parallel to the first rotating shaft 400, thereby increasing the degree of freedom of the watch connector 10. The watch connector 10 can rotate at a larger angle, and the watch connector 10 fits the wrist more closely, making it more comfortable for the user to wear it on the wrist.
[0040] Continue to refer Figure 1 and Figure 2 The connecting member 200 includes a left sleeve 210 and a right sleeve 220 located on both sides of the axial direction of the second rotating shaft 500, and the left sleeve 210 and the right sleeve 220 are rotatably connected to the mounting block 100 through the first rotating shaft 400; the connecting block 300 includes a middle sleeve 310 and a strap fixing portion 320, and the middle sleeve 310 is located between the left sleeve 210 and the right sleeve 220, and the two ends of the middle sleeve 310 along the axial direction of the second rotating shaft 500 are rotatably connected to the left sleeve 210 and the right sleeve 220 through the second rotating shaft 500, and the strap fixing portion 320 is connected to the side of the middle sleeve 310 away from the mounting block 100. By setting the middle sleeve 310 between the left sleeve 210 and the right sleeve 220, the compactness of the structure of the connection block 300 and the connector 200 is increased, and the consumables of the connection block 300 and the connector 200 are reduced. On the basis that the connection block 300 can rotate relative to the connector 200, the volume of the connection block 300 and the connector 200 is reduced, and the watch connector 10 is more compact and light. It can be understood that, without considering the reduction of consumables and compactness and lightness, the middle sleeve 310 can also be set not to be located between the left sleeve 210 and the right sleeve 220. For example, the middle sleeve 310 is set on the side of the left sleeve 210 and the right sleeve 220 away from the mounting block 100. As long as the connection block 300 is rotatably connected to the connector 200 through the second rotating shaft 500, all solutions should be protected.
[0041] It should be noted that, in the extension direction of the first rotating shaft 400 , the size of the mounting block 100 and the size of the strap fixing portion 320 are both larger than the size of the middle sleeve 310 .
[0042] Continue to refer Figure 1 and Figure 2 The mounting block 100 is provided with a left notch 110 and a right notch 120 spaced apart along the extending direction of the first rotating shaft 400 on one side facing the connecting block 300. The left notch 110 and the right notch 120 are spaced apart. The left sleeve 210 and the right sleeve 220 are both provided with lugs 211. The two lugs 211 are respectively located in the left notch 110 and the right notch 120. The first rotating shaft 400 is penetrated through the mounting block 100 and the two lugs 211. By providing the lugs 211, the lugs 211 can be accommodated in the left notch 110 and the right notch 120, so that the mounting block 100 and the connecting member 200 are installed and fixed. On the basis of ensuring that the connecting member 200 can rotate relative to the mounting block 100, the volumes of the mounting block 100 and the connecting member 200 are reduced, and the overall weight of the watch connector 10 can also be reduced. It should be noted that, in other embodiments, the lug 211 is provided on the mounting block 100, and the left notch 110 and the right notch 120 are respectively provided on the left sleeve 210 and the right sleeve 220. It is understandable that the lug 211, the left notch 110 and the right notch 120 may not be provided, and any solution in which the connecting member 200 can rotate relative to the mounting block 100 should be protected.
[0043] refer to Figure 2 , the outer surface of the lug 211 is set as an arc surface 212, the inner wall shapes of the left notch 110 and the right notch 120 are adapted to the shape of the lug 211, and the outer surface of the lug 211 is damped against the inner wall surfaces of the left notch 110 and the right notch 120. By setting the outer surface of the lug 211 as the arc surface 212, when the user rotates the connecting member 200 in use, no matter what angle the left sleeve 210 and the right sleeve 220 rotate to relative to the mounting block 100, the lug 211 can damply abut against the inner wall surfaces of the left notch 110 and the right notch 120, so as to fix the rotation angle of the left sleeve 210 and the right sleeve 220 relative to the mounting block 100. It can be understood that, without considering the rotation angle of the left sleeve 210 and the right sleeve 220 relative to the mounting block 100, the arc surface 212 may not be set, and any solution in which the lug 211 can rotate relative to the mounting block 100 should be protected.
[0044] Continue to refer Figure 2The side of the strap fixing part 320 facing the mounting block 100 is provided with an indented groove 321, and part of the structure of the middle sleeve 310 is accommodated in the groove 321. The watch connector 10 also includes a pin 600, which extends along the axial direction of the second rotating shaft 500, and the pin 600 is detachably arranged in the middle sleeve 310 and the strap fixing part 320. Since the middle sleeve 310 will inevitably wear out after being used for a certain period of time, the damping contact between the middle sleeve 310 and the left sleeve 210 and the right sleeve 220 will be unstable, which will further cause the rotation angle of the already adjusted connector 200 and the connecting block 300 to be unable to be fixed. In the process of using the watch connector 10, the connector 200 and the connecting block 300 may not be able to completely fit the user's wrist, resulting in a poor user experience. Therefore, in this embodiment, the middle sleeve 310 and the strap fixing part 320 are set to be detachably connected, and the middle sleeve 310 can be replaced when it is used for a certain period of time, so as to ensure the service life of the entire watch connector 10. Of course, without considering the service life, the middle sleeve 310 and the strap fixing part 320 can also be designed to be non-detachably connected. For example, the middle sleeve 310 and the strap fixing part 320 can be set as an integrally molded structure. As long as the middle sleeve 310 is connected to the strap fixing part 320, it should be protected.
[0045] Continue to refer Figure 1 and Figure 2 The watch connector 10 further includes a decorative protrusion 700, which is disposed on the outer side walls of the left sleeve 210 and the right sleeve 220 and disposed between the mounting block 100 and the strap fixing portion 320. By providing the decorative protrusion 700, the aesthetics of the watch connector 10 is increased, so that when the user wears the watch connector 10 on the body, he can not only view the time on the dial 31, but also use the watch connector 10 as an ornament to match his daily clothes. It can be understood that without considering increasing the aesthetics of the watch connector 10, the decorative protrusion 700 may not be provided, as long as the connection member 200 is rotatably connected to the mounting block 100 through the first rotating shaft 400, and the connection block 300 is rotatably connected to the connection member 200 through the second rotating shaft 500, all solutions should be protected.
[0046] refer to Figure 3 The utility model also provides a watch strap 20, which is used to be connected to the dial 31 and wear the dial 31 on the user's wrist, and the watch strap 20 includes the above-mentioned watch connector 10 and a band body 21, the watch connector 10 is connected to the end of the band body 21, and the band body 21 is clamped on the dial 31 through the watch connector 10 to achieve the connection and fixation between the watch strap 20 and the dial 31.
[0047] refer to Figure 4The utility model also provides a watch 30, which includes the two aforementioned watch straps 20 and a dial 31. The two watch straps 20 are respectively clamped at the opposite ends of the dial 31, and the ends of the two watch straps 20 that are away from each other are detachably connected to cooperate with the dial 31 to form a wearing cavity for the user to wear on the hand, thereby realizing the wearing of the watch 30.
[0048] It should be noted that in other embodiments, the number of straps 20 can also be set to one, in which case the opposite ends of the strap 20 are respectively connected to the opposite ends of the dial 31 to cooperate with the dial 31 to form a wearing cavity that can be worn by the user.
[0049] Second embodiment
[0050] refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The watch connector 10 of this embodiment has a substantially same structure as the watch connector 10 of the first embodiment, except for the specific arrangement of the mounting block 100 and the connector 200. The mounting block 100 is provided with an installation notch 130 extending along the extension direction of the first rotating shaft 400 on one side of the mounting block 100 facing the connector 200. The connector 200 further includes a reinforcing block 230, which connects the left shaft sleeve 210 and the right shaft sleeve 220. The reinforcing block 230 is located in the installation notch 130, and the first rotating shaft 400 penetrates the mounting block 100 and the reinforcing block 230. By providing the reinforcing block 230, the reinforcing block 230 is installed in the installation notch 130, which increases the contact area between the left shaft sleeve 210, the right shaft sleeve 220 and the mounting block 100, increases the friction between the reinforcing block 230 and the mounting block 100, and enables the rotation angle of the reinforcing block 230 and the mounting block 100 to be fixed. It is understandable that, without considering whether the rotation angle of the connecting member 200 and the mounting block 100 can be fixed, the reinforcing block 230 may not be provided, and any solution in which the connecting member 200 can rotate relative to the mounting block 100 should be protected.
[0051] Continue to refer Figure 5 and Figure 6The surface of the reinforcing block 230 connected to the mounting block 100 is provided with an arc surface, and the inner wall shape of the mounting notch 130 is adapted to the arc surface of the reinforcing block 230. The arc surface of the reinforcing block 230 is damped against the inner wall surface of the mounting notch 130 to fix the rotation angle of the reinforcing block 230 and the mounting block 100. By setting the surface of the reinforcing block 230 connected to the mounting block 100 to be an arc surface, when the user rotates the left sleeve 210 and the right sleeve 220 during use, the reinforcing block 230 is always damped against the inner wall surface of the mounting notch 130, so that no matter how the reinforcing block 230 is rotated relative to the mounting block 100, the rotation angle of the reinforcing block 230 relative to the mounting block 100 can be fixed. It can be understood that without considering the rotation angle of the fixed reinforcement block 230 and the mounting block 100, the arc surface of the surface of the reinforcement block 230 connected to one side of the mounting block 100 may not be set. As long as the reinforcement block 230 can rotate relative to the mounting block 100, it should be protected.
[0052] Although the utility model has been described with reference to several typical embodiments, it should be understood that the terms used are illustrative and exemplary, rather than restrictive. Since the utility model can be implemented in a variety of forms without departing from the spirit or essence of the utility model, it should be understood that the above-mentioned embodiments are not limited to any of the aforementioned details, but should be widely interpreted within the spirit and scope defined by the attached claims, so all changes and modifications falling within the scope of the claims or their equivalents should be covered by the attached claims.
