[0036] This utility model embodiment provides a counter 100 that is compatible with both ring buckles and watch straps, solving the technical problem that existing electronic counters only have one wearing method and cannot meet the needs of different customers, thus achieving a significant improvement in the compatibility of the counter.

[0037] The technical solution in this utility model embodiment is to solve the above problems. The general idea is as follows: a wearing component 3 including a ring buckle 31 and a watch strap 32 is set up. When the counter 100 needs to be worn, one end of the ring buckle 31 can be inserted into the mounting slot 121 of the mounting base 12, or the watch strap 32 can be installed on the mounting base 12 by screws 30 and mounting holes, so as to adapt to different people and improve the compatibility of the counter 100.

[0038] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0039] Please refer to Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a counter 100 compatible with both ring clasps and watch straps, includes:

[0040] A lower housing 1 has several female buckles 11 arranged vertically upwards inside, and a mounting base 12 at the bottom of the exterior. The mounting base 12 has a mounting slot 121 on each side, a mounting hole (not shown) in the middle, and a rounded bottom surface to fit the finger. Several limiting protrusions (not shown) are provided inside the mounting slots 121. The female buckles 11 match the male buckles to lock the lower housing 1 and the upper housing 2. The mounting base 12 is used to install a wearing component 3. The mounting slots 121 are used to install a ring buckle 31. The mounting hole is used to install a watch strap 32. The limiting protrusions are used to limit the movement of the ring buckle 31.

[0041] An upper housing 2 has several male buckles (not shown) vertically arranged inside, which match the female buckles 11. It is located at the upper end of the lower housing 1 via the male buckles and female buckles 11, and is detachably connected to the lower housing 1. It also has a display window 21 and a button hole 22. The upper housing 2 and the lower housing 1 cooperate to provide safety protection for the counter 100. The display window 21 is used to install the display screen 8. The button hole 22 is used to install silicone buttons 9.

[0042] A wearing component 3 is mounted on the lower housing 1 via the mounting base 12 and is detachably connected to the lower housing 1. The wearing component 3 includes a ring buckle 31 and a watch strap 32. One end of the ring buckle 31 is inserted into a mounting slot 121 and engages with the limiting protrusion. The watch strap 32 is mounted on the mounting base 12 via a mounting hole. The wearing component 3 is used to wear a counter 100. The ring buckle 31 has a notch 311, and the end of the notch 311 is bent outward at a certain angle to avoid pinching the flesh on the side of the finger.

[0043] A metal sheet 4 is disposed inside the lower housing 1 for mounting the battery 5 and for conducting electricity;

[0044] A battery 5 is installed inside the metal plate 4, with its negative terminal connected to the metal plate 4, for supplying power to the counter 100;

[0045] A PCB board 6 is located between the lower housing 1 and the upper housing 2 for soldering the MCU 7;

[0046] An MCU7 is located on the PCB board 6 and connected to the positive terminal of the battery 5 and the metal plate 4. It is used to control the operation of the counter 100. In specific implementation, any MCU that can perform this function can be selected from the existing technology. It is not limited to any particular model, such as the STM32F103 series MCU from STMicroelectronics. The control program is well known to those skilled in the art, and it can be obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort.

[0047] A display screen 8 is disposed within the display window 21 and connected to the MCU 7, for displaying the number of times the silicone button 9 is pressed and the current time;

[0048] A silicone button 9 is disposed in the button hole 22 and connected to the MCU 7, and is used to turn the counter 100 on and off.

[0049] A keycap 10 is fitted onto the top of the silicone key 9 to improve pressing comfort.

[0050] Also includes:

[0051] A transparent protective plate 20 is disposed inside the display window 21, covering the display screen 8, and is used to provide protection for the display screen 8.

[0052] The transparent protective panel 20 is made of acrylic sheet.

[0053] Also includes:

[0054] A screw 30 is used to mount the watch strap 32 onto the mounting base 12 via the screw 30 and the mounting hole.

[0055] The battery 5 is a button cell battery.

[0056] The display screen 8 is connected to the MCU 7 via a conductive strip 81.

[0057] Working principle of this utility model:

[0058] The counter 100 is worn on the finger by the wearing component 3. The power-on action is performed by pressing and holding the silicone button 9 by the keycap 10. Then, the MCU 7 counts based on the trigger signal of the silicone button 9 by pressing the keycap 10 briefly, and displays the counting result on the display screen 8.

[0059] In summary, the advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0060] 1. By installing the wearing components, including a ring buckle and a watch strap, on the mounting base of the lower housing, when the counter needs to be worn, one end of the ring buckle can be inserted into the mounting slot of the mounting base, or the watch strap can be installed on the mounting base through screws and mounting holes. This allows for flexible selection of the wearing method, either the ring buckle or the watch strap, to suit different people and greatly improve the compatibility of the counter.

[0061] 2. By setting up a ring buckle and a detachable connection between the watch strap and the lower case, the ring buckle can be simply plugged in and unplugged, and the watch strap can be tightened with just one screw, which greatly improves the convenience of disassembly and assembly.
